Forced to Date a Big Shot

Chapter 801 - Superhuman!



Chapter 801: Superhuman!

Xue Xi had indeed thought about this name many times, but because she could not guess what it was, she simply put it aside. After all, even if she could think of it, she could not learn more, right?

However, since this person came to tell her this, there was no harm in listening.

Although the fat man’s face could not be seen clearly, he still looked elegant and dignified. He smiled and said, “Do you think your ability to learn other people’s powers is just that? An ability?”

Xue Xi paused.

She noticed that this person called her special power an ability.

Ability...

She frowned and said, “Isn’t this special power just an ability?”

“Is it special?” The fat man smiled. His voice was dreamy as he slowly said in Xue Xi’s dream, “Do you call your superior learning ability special? How is it special? Doesn’t everyone have the ability to learn? It’s just that your learning ability is stronger.”

Xue Xi: “...”

She suddenly did not understand what this person was saying.

Just as she was feeling confused, the fat man suddenly smiled. “Our organization doesn’t call our abilities special powers.”

Xue Xi paused. “Then what do you call them?”

Esper was just the name given to them by the special department. Because their abilities were different from that of ordinary people, they were named Espers.

Could there be a better term?

As she thought this, the fat man became a little agitated. “Do you still remember the Liu Tao you killed a while ago?”

Of course, Xue Xi had an impression of him.

That person’s special power was pausing time. This ability was simply too powerful. It was the most powerful special power she had learned so far.

The fat man lowered his eyes. “Do you know his story?”

Story?

Xue Xi shook her head.

The fat man said, “When he was young, he was actually not like that. He had an alcoholic father and a weak mother. His father had drunk alcohol since Liu Tao was young, and he’d often hit Liu Tao’s mother. When he was four or five years old, when Liu Tao stood in front of his mother, that beastly father would hit him too. Later, when he was six years old, his mother finally divorced his father and brought him away from that environment.

“Liu Tao thought that he had finally escaped from the clutches of the devil. His dark thoughts from a young age had also been eased in those few years.

“When he was eight years old, his mother remarried after getting to know his stepfather. When they first got married, the family of three would often go out to watch movies, eat, and go to the amusement park. Although their lives were tight for those two years, it was indeed the happiest time in their lives.

“That stepfather also gave him hope. He gradually forgot the pain from when he was young and became like a normal person who could speak and laugh.

“Until...

“His mother got pregnant again and had his stepfather’s child. Moreover, she gave birth to a younger brother. At that time, Liu Tao had reached the rebellious stage of his life. He always felt that his mother and stepfather would no longer pay attention to him after they had his younger brother.

“He won an award once and wanted to tell his mother, but when his younger brother cried, his mother went to feed him. He wanted to tell his stepfather, but his stepfather was working hard to earn money outside. When he returned, he was a little frustrated and ignored him.

“His mother and stepfather had promised him that they would bring him to KFC, but now, no one was bringing him there.

“He slowly started to feel depressed and finally could not help but explode. He said that his mother did not want him anymore after having his younger brother. If he had known that this would happen, it would have been great if he never had a younger brother at all.

“Later on, when his mother was cooking, he heard his younger brother cry. He ran to find his younger brother rolling down the bed. He wanted to pick up his younger brother, but unexpectedly, his mother, who had heard his cries, came over. When she saw him, her first reaction was: ‘What did you do to your younger brother?!’

“His life returned to darkness.

“Later, when his younger brother was two years old, Liu Tao would say that he would leave. His family life was not good, and his stepfather’s true colors were exposed. He would only buy good food and fun things for his younger brother and not him.

“His mother doted on his younger brother even more. She felt that Liu Tao’s father had given her so much pain, and the only reason why she had endured for so many years was because Liu Tao, this child, had complained about leaving him.

“Whenever his younger brother fell and bled, her mother and stepfather would assume it was Liu Tao who did it. Liu Tao must have a violent father; after all, that man’s blood flowed in his veins.

“Finally, after his younger brother fell sick, her mother and stepfather made a decision. They would return Liu Tao to his abusive father.

“At that time, Liu Tao was less than ten years old. He had no choice but to be sent to his father’s house.

“That father was still an alcoholic and an abusive person. After drinking, he beat Liu Tao until he was covered in blood and lying on the ground. Liu Tao finally picked up his phone and called his mother to tell her about his injuries. However, that cold-blooded mother, who only cared about Liu Tao not causing trouble to his younger brother, coldly said to him, “That’s your father. He won’t beat you to death.” Then, she hung up.

“Liu Tao lived in the darkness.

“Because he was beaten up, he could not go to school. He was young and could not seek help from others. He could only curl up in that room every day and wait for his father’s return.

“He wanted time to pass more slowly.

“This way, his father would not be able to beat him up if he did not return drunk.

“He only had this obsession every day, but he did not expect it to become true.

“When he was twelve years old, he suddenly could control the flow of time. On the day his father pushed open the door and entered, time really stopped.

“He looked at his father standing in front of him. Having lived in the dark since he was young, he had an idea. As long as his father died, no one could hit him anymore, right?

“This thought made him enter the kitchen and take out a kitchen knife. He stabbed it into his father’s heart.

“After that, to prevent himself from being investigated, he paused the time and dealt with his father’s corpse. Then, he relied on the time halt to rest and steal food before finding his mother and stepfather’s residence.

“He had come to complain to his mother about his experiences over the years, but he did not expect to see his mother taking care of his younger brother.

“That scene was a little glaring.

“He went forward to acknowledge her, but his mother impatiently told him to scram, because when she saw him, she remembered the humiliation she’d suffered over the years. He told her, ‘Don’t be afraid anymore. My father won’t hit you again.’

“He’d wanted to say that he would protect his mother from now on.

“However, he did not expect his stepfather to come back. When he saw him, his face darkened and he told his mother that he could not raise two children. Either she would bring Liu Tao along with her, or she would ask him to scram.

“Her mother chose to tell Liu Tao to scram. ‘I can’t afford to raise you at all. Your stepdad is the one who gives you money to spend in this family. Leave. If you don’t leave, the two of us will starve.’

“Liu Tao did not leave. His stepfather grabbed his collar and threw him out of the room. At that moment, time stopped again.

“After Liu Tao killed his stepfather while using Time Freeze, he stole a lot of money. Holding so much cash, he told his mother that he now had a lot of money to support her and his younger brother. However, his mother’s eyes were filled with fear when she looked at him. She even shouted that he was a demon! She wanted to call the police and make him pay the price.

“At that time, Liu Tao was stunned.

“The darkness in his heart slowly expanded, so he killed his mother and brother.

“After that, he went completely crazy and became a murderous demon.

“He was happy to kill.

“And whenever he saw harmonious families, he’d felt a sense of disgust that made him want to especially kill those people...”

The fat man’s story was very moving.

However, Xue Xi’s expression did not change at all. “I sympathize with Liu Tao’s situation, but these are not reasons for Liu Tao to kill people casually.”

The fat man smiled. “Yes, he’s a lunatic. Damn it, there’s nothing wrong with you killing him. Didn’t we send him to you?”

Xue Xi frowned. She did not understand why the fat man told this story.

The fat man continued, “I’m saying this because I want to tell you that our organization won’t randomly kill people. We will also deal with people like Liu Tao, but his abilities were too powerful. It’s a pity to kill him just like that, so we gave him for you to learn. Killing him was the best ending.”

Xue Xi: “...Don’t tell me you’re saying this to ask me to thank you?”

“Of course not.”

The fat man slowly said, “I want to say, join us. Xue Xi, our superhuman organization needs you.”

Xue Xi was instantly stunned. “Superhuman organization?”

“Yes, superhuman. The special department calls our abilities special powers. They feel that we are different from humans and want to protect ordinary humans. They put shackles on us superhumans.

“However, we are clearly superior to ordinary people. Your learning ability is clearly a superhuman power. How can it be considered a mere special power?

“We are higher than humans. According to the theory of evolution, we will sooner or later be the masters of this planet! Those ordinary people are not worthy of pointing fingers at us. We should be above humans and become their masters!”

The fat man’s voice became agitated. “So many Supers had had their abilities awakened through damage inflicted by ordinary people. We awakened our superhuman powers not to protect humans, but to... control humans! We are not espers at all! We are superhumans!”
