Chapter 61 (1/2)
As they sat down at the cafe, Zhao Yao questioned the bald man,” So, who are you exactly?”
”I guess you could say I'm a police inspector” Inspector Ho smiled ”I've alanted to have a nice chat with you but couldn't find the opportunity to do so I decided to ht ”
”Police?” Zhao Yao panicked a little as he recalled the policeht with the killer cat
Zhao Yao put up a serious face and continued, ”So what's theme?”
Inspector Ho thought for a while and replied, ”The governotten news of the existence of supercats I aator for supercat cases that occur within Jiang you” He hesitated but continued,” Is because I think that you, Zhao Yao, are the strongest apostle I've ever seen in the whole of Jiangmen City”
”Honestly, you are the only person e know that can use multiple powers”
”Strongest apostle?” Zhao Yao was slightly flattered by Inspector Ho's coht that he was invincible with the power of time freeze and Elizabeth's mind control
Hearing this first-hand from the chief inspector, Zhao Yao couldn't help but feel elated But as he got over the sudden surge of happiness, he shockingly exclaimed, ”Youyou”
He suddenly realized that the inspector actually knew his true identity
”You left too ed his shoulders and smiled ”You were captured on CCTV at Cloud Road Besides that, you left behind footprints and evidence of your fight with the killer cat; there was leftover fur froht outside Not forgetting the videos on the ga streams”
Inspector Ho couldn't help but laugh, ”Though you ed to hide your face from some of the security ca, and so it was really easy to find out your true identity”
Zhao Yao aardly lowered his head He thought that he had been extra careful, but it turned out that his plan was full of flaws
Inspector Ho reassured, ”You don't have to worry that much We have no intentions to arrest apostles and supercats As long as you abide by the laill never arrest you You can even stop working and ill give you money monthly Or we could find you a job; a job that pays well and is in close proximity to your home”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yao eyes lit up ”Is it really as good as it sounds? Won't you uys for research purposes? I don't have to fight with my powers?”
Inspector Ho shook his head and reassured, ”It is all up to you Voluntary If you are unwilling to cooperate, ill never force you to do so But if you wish to do so for the country, ould be more than happy to let you do so”
”What's important is that you do not cause any destruction and that you do not disrupt our social stability Actually, if you think about it, although Apostles like you are s, on a real battlefield, you can never stand up against tanks, fighter jets, and missiles Furthermore, Apostles like you cannot be mass produced ”
”Your greatest use would be seen in stealth operations, dealing with petty cri in research In uys on the frontline Therefore, you don't have to worry about us forcing you to do anything you do not wish to”
Zhao Yao nodded as he reht He slowly understood the purpose of this
As good as it sounds, he certainly could not trust someone that easily However, he could tell from the inspector's tone that he was still very afraid of his powers
Zhao Yao asked, ”About my intel How many people actually know about this?”
Inspector Ho replied with a stern face, ”Your powers are remarkable and thus your identity is confidential, needless to say In the whole of Jiangmen City, there are less than five people who know about this, and that is including me I assure you that they would never leak out any information As a matter of fact, all identities and powers of the supercats and apostles like you are kept secret”
Zhao Yao nodded He didn't want any information about his identity and power to be leaked out to the public As metalman once said, possession of such poould only increase the risk of being attacked It was only a matter of time before Zhao Yao met his demise
Even with his ti powers, if it meant that he had to be on his toes 24/7 to counter all sorts of threats such as aet tired one day and fall victim to the assailants The only way to ensure his safety was to wait for tie
For now, Zhao Yao had to continue to keep his identity hidden well
Zhao Yao suddenly reanization which he exterminated back then and asked, ”Recently, are there any Apostles who are stealing supercats?”
Inspector Ho raised an eyebrow and apologized, ”I'm sorry I'overnment secrets, and I have no access to them”
Zhao Yao kneould say that and carried on asking, ”In the case, does this mean that you have many supercats and apostles on your side?”
