Dude, something's really wrong with your abilities.

Chapter 63 Deep Eyes

The person who reached out and grabbed the girl was none other than Li Mo.

He pinned the girl against the alley wall, quickly looked her up and down, and frowned: "Why are you in Linchuan?"

The girl's eyes darted away, and after a long silence, she finally spoke in a low voice: "I'm here to carry out a mission."

"Don't lie to me. What are you doing, sneaking around with the Supernatural Bureau people on a mission?"

"I..." The girl was speechless for a moment, wanting to explain but unable to think of a reason.

Li Mo stared at her, his face grim, and grabbed her collar: "You did what happened at Tianping Mountain, didn't you?"

"Red Falcon and I have told you countless times that we are here to educate the world, not to kill indiscriminately! What nonsense are you spouting?"

His stern questioning caused the girl's eyes to instantly redden, and tears welled up in her eyes: "But Uncle Guo is already dead!"

"So? You've come all the way to Linchuan just to avenge him?"

Seeing her like this, Li Mo finally suppressed his anger and sighed helplessly: "Red Falcon committed suicide. You don't need to avenge him. Leave Linchuan quickly and don't go here to die."

"I won't leave." The girl stubbornly raised her head, her eyes filled with tears but her gaze was firm. "It was the people from the Supernatural Abilities Bureau who forced Uncle Guo to his death. I will make them pay the price."

"The price? With your skills?"

Li Mo suddenly chuckled softly, staring into her eyes: "Tong Ying, you don't really think your special ability [Sinking Eyes] is that powerful, do you?"

"Your ability is indeed unpredictable and strange when dealing with ordinary people or low-level ability users, but when you encounter someone with a higher level or mental strength than you, it is a completely useless skill."

He looked at the defiant girl and continued to warn, "You want to seek revenge against Group Five? Do you know their strength?"

Tong Ying shook her head blankly.

Ever since learning of Red Falcon's self-destruction, she had been harboring resentment and was determined to seek revenge in Linchuan. When the organization issued a mission to eliminate informants, she used the mission as a pretext to rush to Linchuan, carrying out the task while simultaneously plotting her revenge against Group Five, without ever investigating her opponents beforehand.

"Sun Tiemei, the leader of Group Five, is the only S-level ice-type ability user in the entire Linchuan City. Let me tell you this: if she sets her mind to killing, you won't survive with just one look from her."

Li Mo continued to shatter the naive young man's hopes: "Among the team members, Chang Biao and Pang Daqiang are almost at the threshold of A-level. There is also a girl named Su Xiaohe, whose level is about the same as yours, but she has spatial detection ability, so you can't get close to her at all."

"The only one in Group Five whose rank is lower than yours is Chen Shi. He's only rank F, but..."

Mentioning Chen Shi, Li Mo suddenly recalled some very unpleasant things. That F-rank guy seemed unremarkable, a chatterbox who was annoying, but his abilities were extremely strange and couldn't be judged by conventional ranks. If he couldn't get under control of him immediately, he would most likely be the one to suffer in the end.

But these words made Tong Ying's eyes light up.

Her deep gaze works by making eye contact. High-level ability users have strong mental power and can directly become immune to her abilities. She really can't touch the other five groups.

But a mere F-rank weakling is definitely someone she can easily handle. She forgot about the incident this morning when her superpowers completely failed after a close-up eye contact with Chen Shi, and her mind was filled with thoughts of revenge.

In order to extricate herself quickly, Tong Ying immediately suppressed her anger and lowered her head in compromise, saying, "I understand, Brother Li. But the organization's mission for me is to eliminate three informants. I've only completed one so far. If I go back empty-handed, I won't be able to explain it to the organization."

Looking at her reddened eyes, Li Mo's tone softened: "Hongjun's wife and children died in a car accident years ago, and he later adopted you. In his heart, and in the eyes of us brothers, you are his own daughter. None of us can bear to see you perish here."

When the topic of the kestrel was brought up again, Tong Ying couldn't hold back anymore. Her legs went weak, and she squatted down, burying her head in her arms. Her shoulders trembled violently, and she let out a suppressed sob.

Li Mo stood beside her, and after she had finished crying, he sighed and said, "Take care of yourself. Call me if anything happens." Then he turned and disappeared into the darkness.

Tong Ying was the only one left in the alley.

She squatted quietly in place, Li Mo's words replaying in her mind. The strength of Group Five far exceeded her expectations; revenge was hopeless, and the Supernatural Abilities Bureau was still searching for her throughout the city. If she stayed any longer, being caught would only be a matter of time.

Fortunately, she still had one breakthrough point: that F-rank weakling.

As long as she can kill him, even if it's just one person, her trip to Linchuan won't be in vain.

Tong Ying slowly stood up, wiped away the tears on her face, and her eyes became completely resolute.

She knew Chen Shi and Pang Daqiang's investigation route very well. This shantytown had many branching alleys and a chaotic flow of people, so the two would occasionally split up to visit different areas in order to improve efficiency.

She patiently waited at the corner of the alley. Before long, she saw the fat man run to the next alley to check and register at the intersection ahead. The two who were originally side by side were completely separated, and Chen Shi was left alone on the whole street checking the residents' information.

Tong Ying took a deep breath, suppressed all her emotions, and strode forward, blocking Chen Shi's path.

Chen Shi looked up and saw who it was, his face full of doubt: "Why is it you again? I already said there's no need to thank me, it was just a small favor."

Tong Ying didn't reply, her face expressionless, her eyes fixed on Chen Shi's eyes, and she immediately activated her supernatural power.

As long as the other person makes eye contact with her, their consciousness will be instantly sealed, and they will fall into a daze and unconsciousness, completely at her mercy.

However, two seconds later, Chen Shi on the other side stood firmly and showed no abnormality.

Tong Ying was a little confused.

Unwilling to give up, she blinked hard, activated her supernatural power again, and locked her gaze firmly into Chen Shi's eyes.

It still didn't work.

Undeterred, she began blinking rapidly and repeatedly, one blink after another, the frequency increasing to an almost frantic degree.

Chen Shi looked at her bizarre and comical appearance and was completely baffled.

What's wrong with your eyes? Are you having an eye problem?

After several attempts, her superpowers completely failed, and Tong Ying finally gave up.

She couldn't understand why even the weakest F-rank could be immune to her Dark Eyes, but she didn't have time to dwell on the reasons. A fierce glint instantly welled up in her eyes, and she pulled out a small folding knife from her pocket, gritting her teeth as she charged straight at Chen Shi.

"I'll fight you to the death!"

"Holy crap? What's going on?"

Chen Shi was completely stunned. He had just saved someone that morning, and now he was being chased and attacked with a knife. It was truly outrageous. He didn't have time to think and hurriedly dodged to the side, barely avoiding the first blow.

On the street, a girl was chasing a boy with a knife, slashing wildly; the scene was rather absurd. The main problem was that neither of them had any decent fighting skills; their exchanges were truly a case of two complete noobs slashing each other.

"If you keep messing around, I really won't be polite!" Chen Shi warned while dodging.

But Tong Ying was completely enraged and wouldn't listen to anything, unleashing a tortoise-like barrage of attacks.

Her superpowers are useless; she can only rely on brute force to fight back now.

However, the difference in physical strength between men and women was undeniable. Despite her frantic swinging, she couldn't even touch Chen Shi's clothes. Instead, Chen Shi seized an opening and knocked the folding knife from her hand to the ground.

With the weapon out of her hand, Tong Ying became even more enraged, completely disregarding everything else, and reached out with both hands to grab Chen Shi's face.

Chen Shi couldn't dodge in time, and his cheek was grazed by a fingertip, leaving a shallow bloodstain.

"No, why are you scratching me?"

Just as Chen Shi was helplessly dodging, a series of hurried footsteps came from afar.

Upon hearing the commotion, the fat man rushed over immediately. After seeing the scene of the struggle, he didn't say a word and delivered a swift sweeping kick, knocking Tong Ying to the ground.

After subduing the girl, the fat man saw her face clearly and looked puzzled: "I say, little girl, aren't you a bit too temperamental? I just kicked you this morning, why are you so relentless?"

Reminded by the fat man, Chen Shi suddenly understood everything. He immediately grabbed the fat man and said in a serious tone, "If I'm not mistaken, she is the Soul Eater we're looking for."

In fact, Chen Shi should have realized it earlier, because when he saw the white-clad woman walking in the surveillance video, he vaguely felt that she looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he was.

The main reason was that Tong Ying's knees were injured after he kicked her in the morning, which caused her to walk differently than usual, so he couldn't match it up at first.

Now, after the fat man reminded him, he finally understood.

Upon hearing this, the fat man panicked instantly. Remembering the other party's strange abilities, he hurriedly pulled out a pair of sunglasses from his pocket and put them on before cautiously stepping forward and firmly holding Tong Ying down.
