Chapter 6 - Chapter 6 The Long Road Home

"Stop, don't try to run!"

"I'm going to shoot!"

The two SWAT officers were completely stunned as they had not expected Xinian to run so quickly and decisively. One of them, in a hurry, aimed his gun at Xinian's back and pulled the trigger without caring whether they were in a downtown area or not!

Bang!!

The gunshots caused passersby on the street to scream.

"Huh?" Xinian turned his head while running and could clearly see the bullet chasing him. He could even see every rotating pattern on the bullet head.

Although he lives in the United States, a country known for its "gunfights every day," this was his first time seeing a real bullet, but he didn't expect it to be shot at him.

Normal people would be terrified by the sight of guns. After all, even the weakest modern pistol can be fatal if it hits a vital part of the body!

But at that moment, Xi Nian did not smell any fear at all.

Because, in his opinion, the bullet was too slow.

It was so slow that Xi Nian felt that as long as he continued to speed up, he could leave the bullet far behind him - so, as a matter of course, Xi Nian made a slight sideways evasive movement while moving at high speed, and the pursuing bullet passed through his scattered silver hair.

"not good!"

Xinian had just dodged the bullet easily when he suddenly saw a car parked in front of him waiting at the intersection. After just a moment of hesitation, Xinian stretched out his empty left hand like lightning and caught the bullet that had passed over him in his palm!

"What did he do?" "How is it possible?!"

The special police who saw this scene screamed in fear.

There was a slight pain and burning sensation in the palm of my hand.

Xi Nian looked back at the special police, threw the bullet that had been pinched into a metal button on the ground, and turned around to leave again.

This time, the two SWAT officers didn't make a sound. They stood there with their guns raised, like wooden stakes.

It was like opening Pandora's box, and tonight's experience was not over yet.

But start.

Xi Nian turned at the intersection and happened to see three police cars roaring down the road ahead, obviously heading towards him.

Not only that, sharp sirens could be heard faintly on the roads on both sides.

"I just want to go home, is there anything wrong with that? Besides, is it so efficient?" Xinian's mouth twitched involuntarily. In movies and TV shows, when robberies or crimes happen, don't the police always rush in to clean up the mess after everything is over?

How come I met him so quickly?

This is unscientific!

"Never mind. Anyway, we can't stay on the street in the downtown area anymore." Xi Nian didn't want to accidentally hurt ordinary people. He looked around at the buildings on the side of the road and quickly chose a relatively low four-story convenience store.

Xinian accelerated forward, pushed hard on his toes, and tried to jump onto the roof of the convenience store.

But this time, he used too much force compared to before.

Xi Nian's body suddenly felt weak for a moment, so he only jumped about six meters and fell to the ground naturally before he got close to the building.

Below is the police convoy that arrived in Mercedes-Benz from various intersections.

"Fuck, stop playing with me!"

Xi Nian danced in mid-air, feeling the familiar sensation of falling, and watched the rooftop getting farther and farther away.

Just then.

laugh!

From Xi Nian's left hand, which he casually waved forward, a golden rope appeared from thin air, spreading and swaying over the city like a dragon. Xi Nian firmly grasped one end of the golden rope, while the other end stretched forward like a lasso until it was wrapped around the lightning rod on the building ahead!

There was no time to figure out how the rope appeared. Xi Nian pulled it with his left hand, and his body, which had been suspended in mid-air, jumped up again and landed on the rooftop of a four-story building next to the intersection.

"That was a close call."

Xinian, still in shock, retracted the golden rope, withdrew his gaze from the empty police car, and quickly fled the scene using the nearby high-rise building as a stepping stone.

On the road below, five or six police cars braked suddenly and stopped at the place where Xinian had just jumped.

"Who is that person?"

A police officer got out of the driver's seat of the police car, looked at the road surface with footprints on it, and muttered to himself in astonishment.

"Anyway, he is not an ordinary person." Another police officer who got off the car continued.

"Nonsense." Many police officers were speechless. Catching a bullet with bare hands, traveling at a speed of over 100 yards per hour, and jumping four stories high, even for an ordinary person, was outrageous!

"What should we do next?"

Just when the police officers felt helpless, a police car with its sirens blaring finally arrived and stopped on the road along with the other police cars.

The car door opened, and Officer George got out of the car quickly. He looked at the police officers and asked quickly, "Where did the target criminal go?"

"Report to the officer, the other party flew... no, jumped away!" The police officer at the scene saluted and pointed to the building more than ten meters high.

"???"

It took Officer George five seconds to understand what this meant by 'jumping away'.

After a brief thought, Officer George said in a deep voice, "Immediately request helicopter support from the local police force. We can't let such a dangerous unknown person act recklessly in this city!"

"Yes! Officer!"

Xi Nian moved quickly among the high-rise buildings. Although he could not control his extraordinary physique yet, he finally became more familiar with the movements outside.

"So this is what it feels like to fly."

With the help of the golden rope in his hand, Xinian was seen leaping back and forth on the top floors of buildings ranging from several to more than ten stories high. When the force used was too strong or weak, he would use the lasso to pull himself to another building to ensure that he would not fall off the roof.

No one knows what material this golden rope is made of, but it can be stretched and retracted at will and can be put on any object such as railings, eaves, clothes hanging to dry, etc.

He was shocked to find out.

Even if it is not a tangible entity, but just a wisp of black smoke rising from the chimney, the golden rope can be used as a concrete object to lock it and lend it force!

Xi Nian even suspected that it could be used to trap clouds, or even things with deeper meanings such as the so-called soul!

Of course, the premise is that the concept of soul exists in this world.

"Should we get rid of them?" Xi Nian came to the top of a skyscraper, stood near the almost suspended railing, looked down at the vehicles and pedestrians like small black dots below, and still felt a palpitation from the bottom of his heart.

"It's time to go back home."

Thinking of this, Xi Nian leaped up once more, intending to throw the golden lasso in the air to close the distance between him and the building opposite. However, it was only when his left hand made the throwing motion that he noticed that the golden rope that had come to his rescue had disappeared without a trace...

"No way, are you still teasing me?"

Xi Nian's heart ached violently, the third time that night, and he felt a long sense of falling.

Newton was ecstatic!

So, the scene we saw at the beginning appeared.

Xinian fell diagonally onto the roof of a five-star hotel. Seeing the police helicopter chasing him, he could only continue to escape relying on his unstable strength.

Ten minutes later.

Even Xi Nian himself didn't know how long he had been flying on the tall building. He only knew that he was getting farther and farther away from the city area near his home.

Once again, he hid in the shadow of a water tower on a tall building and watched the helicopter patrolling in the wrong direction and fly away until it completely disappeared from his sight.

Xi Nian then let out a breath, the heat coming out of his body was enough to evaporate the frost and snow, his eyes were filled with fatigue.

"Now, can I finally go home?" he murmured softly.

It's like a flag has been erected.

As soon as Xi Nian finished speaking, a figure appeared from nowhere, and landed gracefully and lightly on the top of the high-rise water tower!
