Yue Sefu's dark blue pupils looked up and down at Ivan Zachary, confirming that he had never seen this person before.
But Ivan's eyes seemed to have seen Yue Sefu before, and the fear in his eyes fell into Lin Jie's eyes.
Lin Jie blinked and couldn't help but feel strange … This robber seemed to know Yue Sefu.
"You, you …"
Zachary quickly got up, and then silently stepped back a few steps.
He opened his eyes wide, and the more he wanted to forget, the more he doubted his existence, the clearer the last scene he saw before he fainted.
And he could also see that the tall middle-aged man in front of him was the god he saw when he crawled out of the ruins of the factory, who transformed into the sun and fell from the sky.
Yue Sefu narrowed his eyes, and was a little confused about this person's reaction. But after thinking for a while, he was still not sure whether he knew this poor refugee in front of him.
He had saved too many people and met too many people.
This moment of hesitation made Zachary's heart even more fearful. When he stepped back, he tripped and fell backward.
"Eh, eh … Ah!" The first website was m.9biquge. com
Lin Jie subconsciously put down the book in his hand and wanted to stand up.
"Bang! Crash — "
Zachary panicked and slammed into the bookcase, which Lin Jie had just taken out and hadn't sorted out the stacks of books.
Moen and Yue Sefu widened their eyes at the same time.
Zachary subconsciously raised his head and looked up, only to see the tottering books in his field of vision. From this perspective, it was as if a magnificent skyscraper was collapsing. It came crashing down with an earth-shattering momentum, emitting a terrifying aura. It was as if some kind of demon was hiding within, and when it fell to the ground, it would break through the seal.
For Yue Sefu, these books were Boss Lin's power and knowledge — all of those books recorded extraordinary truths, and any one of them might be able to create a God-level Extraordinaire.
Even if Boss Lin didn't care about it, he couldn't. These books must not fall to the ground!
Yue Sefu's pupils contracted, and his muscles tightened. His entire body burned with aether, covering every inch of his body. Even the air around him became hot and distorted.
Joseph almost instantly disappeared from his original spot, and in the next second, he appeared beside the falling pile of books. He raised his sturdy arm and blocked the falling pile of books.
However, he neglected one point, which was that his injuries had not fully healed, and his God-level power was not yet fully under his control.
As a result, while the aether that burst out from his body protected the books, he could not restrain a trace of it.
"Crack!"
The moment the book was stopped, the wall behind the bookshelf … cracked.
Cracks like a spider web appeared on the wall, and some of the wall dust rustled down.
A few of the refugees near the Yue Sefu felt as if they had been hit on the back of their heads with a stick, and they all fainted.
But!
None of the books fell to the ground! It was a great success!
Yue Sefu breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and respectfully finished tidying up the bookshelf.
Lin Jie was speechless.
Boss Lin, who had not yet lifted his butt, sat back down. Then, he supported his chin with both hands and fell into deep thought.
If he hadn't seen wrongly, the person who had rushed past him with a whoosh and caused the wall to crack in the next second was Yue Sefu …
No, no, no, there might not be a causal link between the two.
Lin Jie thought about it seriously. After all, Nuo Jin had such a ridiculous geological phenomenon as periodic ground collapses. Then, it might be that the ground had not been very stable recently, and there had been a small earthquake that was not easy to detect. Therefore, it was very possible that the wall had cracked.
He had seen it clearly just now. Yue Sefu had only caught the book, and did not touch the counter or the wall at all.
Could it be …
Yue Sefu, as a policeman from the secret department who had a prosthetic arm, had his martial strength reached the level of hitting a cow through a mountain?
This was not impossible … In his previous life on Earth, a martial arts master who had undergone training could break marble with his bare hands. In this world where technology was a little skewed, this level of skill was considered normal.
It was not worth making a fuss about.
Lin Jie nodded secretly. He covered his mouth and coughed twice. Looking at the crack in the wall, he said, "Yue Sefu, it seems that your injury has recovered well … Your reaction is quite fast. Thank you."
"No, no, no, Boss Lin, you are too polite. I just didn't want your precious books to fall to the ground and be stained with dust." Yue Sefu smiled and said respectfully, "This is what I should do. Even if I didn't do it, your assistant would have done it."
"Oh … that's true."
Lin Jie looked up at Mo En. She still looked calm, as if everything in front of her was real and normal.
Indeed, even Mo En could fight against six people alone. Yue Sefu's situation must be very normal.
After all, Yue Sefu was the leader of the secret department of the Central Police Station. It would be unreasonable if he did not have some skills. Using an analogy, perhaps he was like a special forces soldier who was trained from a young age?
But then again — my wall!!!
Yue Sefu, how are you going to compensate me!!!
Forget it, forget it. He was still injured, and he was also trying to protect the books. Besides, these refugees had to be dealt with by Yue Sefu.
"Phew …"
Lin Jie took a few deep breaths and calmed down.
He was about to ask, but from the corner of his eye, he saw that among all the refugees, only the guy who had robbed him had not fainted. The others were all unconscious on the ground.
"Uh …" Lin Jie used his arm to support himself on the counter and looked down at the refugee who had fallen to the ground in fright.
Yue Sefu turned around and was also quite surprised. This person was clearly not an Extraordinaire, but he could still maintain his consciousness under the pressure of a God-level Extraordinaire.
Under the impact of the sudden surge of aether pressure, Zachary did not faint. Instead, he sat on the ground with blank eyes and a dull face. In his mind, he recalled the scene of him crawling out of the ruins of the factory.
He was now sure that Yue Sefu was the last scene he saw before he fainted. It was the knight who had turned into a flame.
Will I … will I be silenced?! Zachary swallowed his saliva and recalled that the Central Police Station had concealed this matter, but he had inadvertently seen —
The more he knew, the faster he would die.
Zachary's heart was completely gripped by fear. But, but now he was the only one left. He had to think about the lives of his companions …
"Are you okay?" Lin Jie looked at Zachary and asked.
"I, I'm fine." Zachary carefully got up from the ground and forced a smile. In fact, his legs had already turned to jelly from the shock.
"Your companions … Why did they all faint?"
Lin Jie frowned and looked at the refugees who were lying on the ground in a mess.
This couldn't be because of Yue Sefu, right? He didn't even touch these people.
The corner of Zachary's mouth twitched. You didn't do this?!
Even if you took ten thousand steps back, you were the one who ordered this burly man to do it. But now you're asking me with an innocent face?! Are you even human?
He could clearly feel that the aura emitted in that instant was exactly the same as the aura he felt when he fainted.
"Probably … fainted from hunger?"
Zachary actually managed to force a smile … Since the other party asked this, he definitely wanted him to pretend that he didn't know what had just happened. He didn't know the identity of Yue Sefu. He didn't know anything.
He couldn't say, he definitely couldn't say that he had seen Yue Sefu … He would be killed.
Lin Jie: "?"
"Boss … To tell you the truth, we haven't eaten for a few days." Zachary trembled as he said, "We were originally working as laborers at 67th Street, but 67th Street had a periodic subsidence. We had no home to return to, so we thought of robbing your bookstore. We really had nowhere else to go."
"So, sorry!"
Zachary clasped his hands together in fear. He secretly glanced at Yue Sefu from the corner of his eyes and recounted what had happened to him.
To him, the fear of the bookstore owner in front of him couldn't compare to the fear of Yue Sefu. However, Yue Sefu was so respectful to the bookstore owner. This meant that the bookstore owner was even more terrifying than Yue Sefu. He definitely couldn't offend a more powerful person!
So that's why …
After Lin Jie heard this reason, he thought of the tragic situation at 67th Street that was reported on TV. He had already guessed a little and didn't want to bring them to justice. Now, there was even less reason to send him to the police station.
"Sigh, since you know you're sorry, don't do this kind of thing again."
Lin Jie thought about it and felt that these people probably couldn't afford to buy books. However, helping people had always been his principle, so he smiled and said, "Since you're so hungry, why don't you have a meal at my place?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zachary was so scared that his legs turned to jelly.
"No need, no need. Thank you for your kindness."
Zachary waved his hands and said, "We'll leave now, we'll leave now."
It was true that Zachary hadn't eaten for a few days, but at this moment, he burst out with great strength, dragging his accomplices and hurriedly scrambling out of the bookstore.
"Hey, wait a minute." Lin Jie suddenly shouted behind him. Zachary quickened his pace.
"Boss Lin is calling you."
Yue Sefu said in a low voice. Zachary immediately froze.
"Is there anything else? Boss. "
Zachary turned around and wanted to cry.
"As the saying goes, it's better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish." Lin Jie muttered and slowly said, "Even if I preach to you today or let you eat a full meal, if you encounter the same thing again, I'm afraid you'll still steal and rob in the future."
"Since that's the case, I'll give you a book." Lin Jie smiled and looked at Zachary, "There's no charge, but if this book helps you get out of poverty in the future, it's not impossible for you to repay me."
As Lin Jie said this, he turned around and reached for the book on the bookshelf.
Zachary was stunned. There was an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He said he didn't want to be a good person anymore … But, why did he have to encounter this kind of thing again?
But this feeling only lasted for a moment. When he moved his gaze and stared at the back of the bookstore owner, he suddenly realized that the bookstore in front of him wasn't a bookstore at all. It was as dark and deep as the mouth of an evil beast. And the harmless bookstore owner in front of him revealed a smile that was hidden in the darkness. It was filled with an evil bewitching power like poison.
He turned around and stirred the dim light. Then, from the deep bookshelf, he took out a book and put it in front of Zachary who subconsciously held his breath.
"This is an ancient technique, but today, it's still very practical. I believe it can bring you a new path."
Lin Jie solemnly pushed the book "How to Pickle Vegetables" in his hand.
