"Hello, authorities! I want to report a case! "
In an office in a certain building, a middle-aged man picked up the phone angrily.
"A lunatic barged into my office for no reason just now … Yes, that lunatic is a baldy. How did you know?!"
The same scene happened in hotels, restaurants, KTVs, supermarkets, and residential areas. In just two hours, the authorities received eighty to ninety reports, and they were all accusing the same baldy.
Just like that, Chu Yao transformed into Batman and wandered in the darkness of Shanghai, eliminating evil in this international metropolis. Everywhere she went, there was chaos.
Chu Yao also knew that her actions had a very bad influence and could easily cause misunderstandings. However, in order to quickly eliminate the anomalies and save more people, she couldn't care less and could only act recklessly.
If she had to explain the anomalies to every ordinary person she saved, her efficiency in eliminating the anomalies tonight would be reduced by at least half.
"Fortunately, this is only a VR game and not the real world. No matter how bad the impact of my actions in the game is, there won't be any follow-up." Chu Yao rejoiced. "Otherwise, I'd definitely become a wanted criminal."
This was her greatest confidence in acting recklessly. She knew that this world was just the cold program code in the computer. It was all fake. Once she logged out of the game, this virtual world would be completely cut off from her. Even if she entered again next time, it wouldn't be in this game's plot.
If this was Shanghai in the real world, even if Chu Yao obtained power that surpassed mortals, she wouldn't dare to act so recklessly.
…
"Constable Chai, there's another report from Zhabei District. According to the informant, the suspect is active in the area of Spirit Stones Road!"
"Okay, I got it."
Chai Jin hung up the call from the authorities. Then, with a serious expression, he ordered the officers and soldiers to head to Spirit Stones Road immediately. Seven helicopters circled in the air and hundreds of official cars on the road blared their sirens.
For many people, tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
"This is already the ninety-fourth report. What is he trying to do?"
Chai Jin was confused. The bald man was causing havoc in Shanghai. The thing he was most worried about had happened. However, up until now, the bald man hadn't hurt a single person. He hadn't even robbed any property. He had only broken into the residences of those who had reported the case and wantonly destroyed them. He had said some inexplicable words into the air and then left.
The bald man's behavior had caused serious uneasiness among the higher-ups of Shanghai. Such a dangerous person must not be allowed to act freely. In order to capture him, Shanghai had sent out tens of thousands of troops. The soldiers in every city were strictly patrolling, but even with such an inescapable net, they still could not catch the bald man. He was even more superhuman than Spiderman. He could casually jump more than ten meters high, fly horizontally among high-rise buildings, and move between many cities. When the soldiers received the report and rushed over, he had already run away.
The bald man's face had been captured by the surveillance cameras. Experts had started a nationwide database search, but they could not match any information related to him. He had appeared out of nowhere like a ghost …
"Wait! Spirit! "
Chai Jin was shocked. He recalled the conversation between the two of them when they first surrounded the bald man.
"I'm not going to the government. Shanghai has been invaded by the freaks. I'm the only one who can deal with them. If you delay me here, more people will die in the hands of the freaks!"
"Could it be that what he said is true? Are there really freaks in the world? "Chai Jin was bewildered.
Some experts had done a psychological profile of the bald man at the government headquarters. However, no matter how they profiled him, they still could not analyze the bald man's motive for causing havoc in Shanghai.
No one thought that such a superhuman who dominated Shanghai would be crazy. Chai Jin thought so too.
At this moment, this famous criminal in Shanghai vaguely felt that he had analyzed the other party's motive.
He was a materialist. Originally, he did not believe in the existence of ghosts and gods. However, tonight, he somewhat believed it.
…
Beep, beep, beep, beep!
Da, da, da!
In the distance, the sirens of official cars and the roar of helicopters could be heard. Chu Yao, who was running in the dark alley, felt a headache coming on.
"More and more soldiers are coming to arrest me. Can't they stop? I'm the hero who saved Shanghai!"
Chu Yao had a headache. She was clearly a hero, but she was being arrested by the soldiers as a criminal. However, she could not explain it to others. This made her feel very uncomfortable.
She opened the mission panel.
[Main Mission: Kill 100 freaks (95% Completion) Find out the reason for the arrival of freaks in Shanghai (0% Completion).]
"I still need five more freaks to complete the mission of killing 100 freaks!"
Chu Yao saw the hope of completing the mission. Then, she opened the small map and saw that there were five small black dots in a building not far away. Four of the small black dots were labeled as low-level freaks, and the other small black dot was labeled as mid-level freaks.
"There are actually five freaks in a small building, and one of them is an mid-level freak. How can this be?!"
Chu Yao rushed to the building without hesitation. She was now a professional in eliminating freaks and had a lot of experience in dealing with freaks.
Slap.
Suddenly, a beam of light shone down from the sky and landed on Chu Yao.
"Suspect found! Suspect found! "
The soldiers on the helicopter quickly sent a message to their colleagues.
"Oh no, the authorities have even sent helicopters."
Chu Yao knew that something was wrong. She kept moving and dodging in the alleys, but she could not get rid of the searchlights. She gritted her teeth and jumped onto a tall building in an attempt to escape this area.
"The suspect is over there!"
The helicopter flew at a low altitude and followed Chu Yao closely like a maggot in a tarsal bone. It would not give her a chance to escape. The authorities had even activated the satellite to lock onto Chu Yao. The other six helicopters rushed over as soon as possible to reinforce her.
"You have nowhere to run. Raising your hands and surrendering is your only way out. This is the first warning!" Chai Jin shouted at Chu Yao through a loudspeaker, persuading her to surrender.
Chu Yao ignored him and ran away.
Countless people who were sleeping soundly were alarmed by the huge arrest. Some of them opened their doors and windows, while others walked to the streets and saw a scene that only existed in sci-fi blockbusters.
Seven helicopters hovered above Shanghai, and seven searchlights shone on a figure below. That figure kept running and jumping between high-rise buildings.
"What happened?!"
Everyone was dumbfounded. They were extremely shocked and wondered if they were still asleep.
Even armed helicopters had been deployed. With such a big lineup, it could not be as simple as shooting a movie. What kind of criminal was the authorities arresting?
"This is the second warning. Please stop and accept the investigation immediately. Otherwise, we will use military force!"
Chai Jin threatened in a deep voice.
