I have big problems with my superpowers and my relationship

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of the equally frightened old lady next to him. Lu Chen held back the rest of his words, took a deep breath, and asked:

"Where is the mouse?"

"There..."

Xia Yunian pointed timidly at the door of the staff lounge: "I, we locked it in..."

His eyes were filled with fear and his voice was trembling.

Even the curse that allowed only six words to be spoken in one breath was temporarily ineffective.

The world-weary and autistic girl actually experienced such a big emotional fluctuation, which shows that she is really afraid of mice.

Wow, this is Doraemon’s reincarnation, right?

"Give me the broom."

Lu Chen rolled his eyes and took the broom from Xia Yunian's arms: "I'll go kill it."

"Oh......"

Xia Yunian was a little scared and worried, so she whispered, "You, you better be careful."

"It's just a rat... Are you sure it's just a normal rat in there?"

"Um......"

"Not a mutant breed like Pikachu?"

"No, it's not..."

"Not wearing a red jumpsuit or anything like that?"

"No......"

"Oh, that's no problem."

Lu Chen curled his lips, thinking that the domestic rats were nothing to worry about, so he picked up a broom and went into the staff lounge.

With a "bang", the door closed, leaving Xia Yunian and the aunt outside the house, looking at each other in surprise.

Her hands were clenched tightly and her eyes were fixed on the door. Although she could not see anything, Xia Yunian's expression was still very nervous.

In addition to being nervous, the aunt also had some doubts in her eyes.

Why did Xiaoxia’s cousin come back suddenly?

And why did he ask Xiaoxia what happened as soon as he came in?

It was as if he knew something had happened here.

Something just doesn't feel right...

......

"Okay, come out, I've seen you."

In the staff lounge, just as the aunt was puzzled by Lu Chen's coming back, Lu Chen was holding a broom and searching for traces of mice in a small room of only a few square meters.

Although his superpowers have weakened, judging from his communication with Qingbao, he currently has no problem communicating with mice.

It’s a pity that the mouse seemed to have a higher IQ and was not fooled.

"Well, I'll make you a deal."

After searching for a while and finding no trace of the mouse, Lu Chen sat down on a chair, changed his strategy and started negotiating.

"You are trapped here now. You will be found sooner or later, and you will die then."

"But I can let you live."

"As long as you promise not to come to this store again, I will let you go today."

"What's wrong? Is this a fair deal?"

His eyes kept scanning every corner of the room, Lu Chen spoke clearly and paused for a moment, and he also put the broom on the ground to show his "sincerity".

If it was Huangmao, he would have jumped out by now.

But the mouse remained silent, obviously not trusting him, which perfectly illustrates what it means to be "as timid as a mouse".

Lu Chen was not in a hurry and just crossed his legs and waited.

It was not until almost two minutes later that he heard a very subtle sound.

"Really?"

"Well, really."

His eyes were fixed on the angle between the locker and the wall. Lu Chen said calmly, "I keep my word."

"..."

The mouse remained silent for a few seconds, still seeming to hesitate.

Then Lu Chen saw a small mouse, about half the size of his palm, slowly crawling out from the corner.

It's dark, but it doesn't look disgusting.

"Well, then..."

Looking at Lu Chen timidly, the little mouse whispered: "Open the door. I promise I won't come back after I leave..."

"No, there are people outside the door. If you go out like this, you might still be beaten to death."

"Then, what should we do?"

"Well... you might as well just pretend to be dead."

Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "I'll throw you out, and everything will be fine."

"..."

The little mouse retracted its claws and looked at Lu Chen, hesitant.

But now it had no choice but to trust Lu Chen, so it finally gritted its teeth and agreed, then kicked its legs, closed its eyes, and fell headfirst to the ground.

It looks quite similar...

Lu Chen curled his lips, looked around, grabbed several rolls of toilet paper from someone's cabinet, walked over, and picked up the little mouse by the tail.

Then he opened the door and walked out of the staff lounge.

"what!!"

Almost in an instant, Xia Yunian, who was waiting outside, let out a scream and took several steps back in fright.

Although the aunt was also surprised, she was still calmer in comparison.

"Dead, dead?"

"Well, I'll throw it away first."

Lu Chen nodded, carried the little mouse out of the convenience store, and walked straight to a trash can not far away.

As soon as my hand loosened, the little mouse came back to life the moment it landed on the ground, and disappeared in a flash.

It’s just like the ginseng fruit in Journey to the West that disappears as soon as it hits the ground.

"Tsk, not even a thank you."

Lu Chen muttered, threw the toilet paper into the trash can, and returned to the convenience store.

"Okay, it's already thrown away."

Glancing at Xia Yunian, who seemed to be still in shock, he casually picked up a bottle of mineral water from the shelf and said, "Come and pour it for me so I can wash my hands."

"Oh...oh."

Xia Yunian was stunned for a moment, then quickly followed him out of the store, took the bottle of mineral water, twisted it open with great effort, and poured the water into Lu Chen's hand bit by bit.

"So it's just a small matter, but you have to go back in time three times?"

Bending over, Lu Chen rubbed his hands and muttered, "Is it that serious?"

"I, I want to drive it out..."

Xia Yunian replied with some embarrassment: "But I failed three times..."

So this incident tells us that some things cannot be changed no matter how many times they happen.

"alright."

Shaking his hands, Lu Chen glanced into the store: "Anyway, I can clearly feel the time going backwards now, and I can retain a lot more memories than yesterday."

"By the way, if my superpowers also enter the second stage, will I be able to retain my complete memory every time you use time reversal?"

"Maybe so."

Xia Yunian screwed on the cap of the mineral water bottle and nodded: "Because you can control time, so you are not affected."

"Um......"

Lu Chen thought about it and felt that this possibility was still very high.

Whether it is time suspension or time reversal, they are both abilities of the second stage.

Once I possess this ability, I may be "immune" to the effects of Xia Yunian's use of his ability.

To put it simply, although your own time will go back, you will not forget what has happened.

Hmm? Something doesn't seem right...

Suddenly, Lu Chen frowned.

"Wait a minute, aren't there a lot of people with super powers in this world?"

"Then others should also be in the second stage."

"So have you ever felt what it's like when other people use time pause or time rewind?"

"this......"

Xia Yunian had never thought about this question before. He was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "No..."

"Is that reasonable?"

"unreasonable......"
