Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! Chapter 299: Do Both Things Simultaneously

Chapter 299: Do Both Things Simultaneously

Shen Yupeng was a superhuman whom the adjudicator court decided to elect as both a secret police officer and adjudicator. He had two forms of authority and the right to act before reporting to his higher ups.

In theory, he had the right to investigate all superhuman criminal cases, regardless of the grade of the case. Of course, he also had absolute brute strength as his backup, which allowed him to have the confidence to subjugate out-of-control superhumans without it resulting in severe collateral damage. He protected the Supernatural Tower’s dignity as well as ensured Dragon City’s safety.

This was the true meaning behind adjudicators.

Even though his looks were really similar to those of his cousin, Shen Yupeng gave off a completely different presence compared to Shen Yulong, who died tragically under Raging Waves.

When the man with the hook nose walked over slowly, he did not even pull out his hands from his pockets. Even so, all people and even the biochemical pets, who had sucked in the gas that made them go wild, fell completely silent.

At that moment, the Black Bone members had already caught up.

When they sensed Shen Yupeng and Lu Siya’s presence, which were completely different from theirs, they paused and looked around. Small Insect seemed to have caused a ruckus, and dozens of guns were directed at their brows from the dark. The sharpshooters did not even bother hiding their murderous intent.

Shen Yupeng arrived beside Lu Siya and Meng Chao and reached out with two fingers to pick up Small Insect. He then shouted to the Black Bone members. “This person is one of the main instigators in the case of the pets murdering their owners in Blessed Paradise. He fired gas that makes pets go wild in an attempt to cause dozens of biochemical pets to go berserk. This put hundreds of innocent citizens in danger, and he also tried to destroy the order in Golden Tooth Lair.

“Is he a member of Black Bone? Will Black Bone be responsible for all that he did?”

The Black Bone members looked at each other, but none of them spoke.

“I’m going to ask again.”

Shen Yupeng’s eyes shone with a bright spark. They were like spotlights burning at hundreds of degrees Celsius while fixed on the Black Bone members.

“Is he a member of Black Bone?” he asked fiercely. “Does Black Bone want the secret police to take up arms and organize a search for the top ten wanted criminals of Dragon City in Golden Tooth Lair, which is the territory of Black Bone, Poison Scorpion, and Golden Tooth? Do you want us to stop the operations of the monster colosseums, finance companies, and everyone else’s businesses for three months?”

Under his intimidating presence, the Black Bone members retreated nonstop.

At that moment, a person with a ridiculous tattoo of two black bones intersecting with each other like a cross on his face received a call.

He appeared to be a leader. After he obsequiously agreed to certain things, he hung up and shouted at Shen Yupeng, “He’s not a member of Black Bone. We don’t know who he is.”

“Big Brother Huang—” Small Insect shouted.

But his voice was silenced by Shen Yupeng’s fist.

“If that’s the case, why are you still here?” Shen Yupeng asked the Black Bone members with a smile.

Soon, the Black Bone members disappeared without a trace.

Before leaving, they even sensibly compensated the damages the pet sellers suffered after their animals were killed.

Shen Yupeng grabbed Small Insect to carry him under his armpit and said to Lu Siya and Meng Chao, “Let’s go.”

“Wait!” Lu Siya glared at him. “This is a criminal the abnormal beast research department wants to investigate!”

“Oh?” Shen Yupeng did not even bat an eyelid. He said faintly, “I’m sorry. I didn’t know that the abnormal beast research department has released an arrest order for this suspect.”

Lu Siya found herself speechless.

Shen Yupeng continued, “Of course, the abnormal beast research department has just been built. It’s also a safety department at the same rank as the adjudicator court, so it has the right to execute its authority before reporting to the higher ups.

“So, has the Survival Committee or the Supernatural Tower given the abnormal beast research department any power in regard to the case of murderous pets in Blessed Paradise and allowed you to partic.i.p.ate in it?”

Lu Siya could not say anything about it.

“And of course, it’s fine even if you don’t have an arrest warrant or authorization doc.u.ments when you run into unique, emergency cases that threaten the safety and stability of Dragon City. As long as you have enough power and can handle the situation, it’s fine.”

Shen Yupeng’s expression was relaxed. He smirked at Lu Siya. “Did you have enough brute strength to bring this guy out of Golden Tooth Lair without harming any innocents while ensuring that not a single hair on this person’s head is harmed?”

Lu Siya was so angry that her face turned red. She was practically fuming.

Shen Yupeng’s expression became stern. He brought out a few doc.u.ments that had just been printed from his trenchcoat. The ink was still very fresh. “This is our arrest warrant for the suspect, Mr. Liao, and these are the authorization doc.u.ments for my secret police and adjudicator squad, which is led by me. We are charged with investigating the case of the murderous pets in Blessed Paradise.

“As for absolute strength... I believe I won’t need to display it, will I, Ms. Lu?”

More than ten black figures jumped down from the hornet-nest-like buildings behind Shen Yupeng.

Some of them landed behind Shen Yupeng. They were all secret police and adjudicators who were fully armed and had camouflage paint on their faces.

Their vitality magnetic fields burned like flames and silently spoke of their strength.

Some of the black figures flashed past the area and continued guarding from the dark. They were in positions that would allow them to fire in crossfire.

They were a powerful squad and were much more powerful than Lu Siya alone.

“Now, are you still going to insist that this criminal is yours?” Shen Yupeng smiled, turned around elegantly, and strode away.

“Wow...” Meng Chao gasped in amazement as he looked at Shen Yupeng’s tall and mighty back. “He’s so cool. He absolutely fits my image of a secret police officer and adjudicator!”

“You...” Lu Siya seethed. She was unable to understand it. “How could this be? How did Shen Yupeng manage to arrive ahead of us and appear here in such a timely fas.h.i.+on? He even managed to find out Small Insect’s real surname!

“It has been less than twelve hours since we dissected the three corpses, and we were the first ones to discover the super Giant Sandworm as we;; as the first ones to see the examination reports. Once we found the clues, we fought against time and rushed here. We didn’t waste even half a second!

“Shen Yupeng had absolutely no reason to be here, unless someone leaked our secret. There is definitely no one from my side who leaked our secret. d.a.m.n it! Did you tell someone else about this?”

“That depends on your definition of someone else.” Meng Chao thought about it. “I told Shen Yupeng directly. Does he count as ‘someone else’?”

“What?!” Lu Siya screeched.

At that moment, Shen Yupeng had already given instructions to his secret police squad to retreat and returned to look for Meng Chao while feeling incredibly happy.

“Big Brother Shen, as expected of a legendary adjudicator! You really live up to your name!” Meng Chao thanked him sincerely. “It’s all thanks to you appearing in time, or else, the consequences would have been dire. Dozens and even hundreds of innocent citizens might have died.”

“That’s nothing. This is what I should do,” Shen Yupeng said with a smile. “I should be the one thanking you, Meng Chao. Thank you for fulfilling the duty of a good citizen and handing us the clues about the suspect. You also worked together with us to help us enforce the law, and in the end, we managed to catch the criminal.

“We can’t be sure what relations.h.i.+p Small Insect has to the case of the murderous pets in Blessed Paradise, but based on the number of poisonous mechanisms and drugs he was hiding on him and how he used them without hesitation, there is definitely something wrong with this person. We might have a shocking case on our hands!”

“Of course, every citizen is duty-bound to work together with the related departments to protect Dragon City’s safety.” Meng Chao turned his neck and dug in his ear gently to pull out a mini in-ear communicator. He also brought out a tracking chip from the area around his heart, which was charged by his body temperature and heartbeat. “I’ll return these to you. The advanced technology of the secret police is really useful. They’re only the size of a grain, but I could hear your voice really clearly just now. I didn’t notice any interference at all.”

“Your courage and wits are the reason why you managed to get so much information about the suspect and could locate him,” Shen Yupeng said with a smile. “Honestly, Meng Chao, regardless of whether it’s your performance at the northern frontlines or the operation today, you don’t act like a normal university student at all. I’m beginning to admire you even more now. Once I bring Small Insect back, are you interested in coming over for supper with my squad? We can get to know each other.”

“Sure!” Meng Chao said readily. “I really want to learn more from you and your colleagues. Based on how all of you attacked practically at the same time from different angles and killed dozens of berserk pets instantly, I can tell just how well-trained you all are.”

The secret police officers and adjudicators behind Shen Yupeng had been praised before, but it was another matter to be praised by the super teenage hero who had risen to fame during the northern offense and managed to s.h.i.+ne brilliantly in the tournament between the alliance of the five universities and Dragon City University.

The squad smiled and nodded at him.

Meng Chao returned their smiles and acted in a very friendly manner.

Lu Siya watched him in dumbfounded silence. She felt as if she had been struck by lightning and staggered a few steps back. She nearly fell to the side.

“Big Sis Ya, are you okay?” While talking to Shen Yupeng, Meng Chao was still paying attention to Lu Siya’s condition. He quickly helped her regain her footing and whispered, “You should put on your sungla.s.ses and earrings. It’s too noisy here, and the smell isn’t too pleasant. It might affect your const.i.tution as a Spirit Sensor.”

“I’m not suffering from sensory overload. I’m reacting this way because I’m angry at you!” Lu Siya gritted her teeth, but she could not yell in front of Shen Yupeng. She could only grab Meng Chao’s arm and drag him to the back of the crowd and growl at him. “Since when were you in cahoots with Shen Yupeng?”

“Since I was on the phone with you and you told me to avoid Shen Yupeng,” Meng Chao told her honestly. He slowly walked forward to not lose Shen Yupeng, who had started moving, from his sight.

Lu Siya could not believe it. “Why?”

Meng Chao hesitated for a moment. “Do you really want the truth? I’m afraid that the moment I tell you, we won’t be able to remain friends.”

Lu Siya was seething. “Do you think that we can still be friends after this?”

“That’s true...” Meng Chao nodded and spoke to her honestly. “Because my instincts tell me that you’re ambitious, self-righteous, and will do anything to achieve your goals.

“To take revenge for Big Brother Lin, you’re eager to climb up the ranks of the abnormal beast research department within the shortest time possible, and for that you need to beautifully solve a few major cases

“From the moment you bribed people to do what you wanted, I knew that you don’t have a skilled squad in the abnormal beast research department. If you really summoned elite reinforcements, your achievements would be split with others, and this is something you couldn’t tolerate.

“So, I was highly suspicious that you were lying to me and had no reinforcements. You were taking the risk on your own and deceiving me, an innocent, kind, and somewhat dumb university student, to come and play the lone hero in Golden Tooth Lair with you.

“I don’t mind being deceived, but Golden Tooth Lair is really dangerous, and if the suspect got forced into a corner, we might have hundreds of innocent citizens injured. This is something I can’t accept.

“So, I could only ask for help from Shen Yupeng. After all, he’s an elite from the adjudicator court and is in charge of this case. Besides, if we had two squads acting together, the chances of us catching the criminal would be higher.

“That’s the general gist of things. But, if I wronged you and you actually have reinforcements from the abnormal beast research department, you should ask those elites to come out now. I’ll apologize to you sincerely, and you can punish me however you want.”
