Once, I Wanted To Be a Good Person

   Chapter 2 2. Extraordinary Power

at the same time.

   Outside the room, Fang Ze walked downstairs, silently recalling the information of this world.

  This world is different from Fang Ze’s previous life. A catastrophe a few decades ago led to the birth of a super country where all humanoids unite: the Polestar Federation.

  The Polestar Federation has a vast territory, with a ruling area of ​​146 million square kilometers and a ruling population of nearly 5.7 billion.

   has nine jurisdictions and fifty-seven states.

   During wartime, the Polestar Federation Council has absolute power, but during peacetime, each jurisdiction and even each state has extremely high autonomy, which is equivalent to an independent kingdom.

   And the owner of this villa is a very rich businessman in the state, who is mainly engaged in interstate trade.

   He kept several exotic mistresses, Jinwu Zangjiao, in this villa, and he would come here every holiday to get drunk.

   But, unexpectedly, this place became their burial place in the end.

  Crossing the corridor and following the carved stairs to the downstairs, you will see the spacious and luxurious inner hall of the villa.

   Several Fang Ze's colleagues are already busy in the hall.

  Because this incident involved an awakened person with extraordinary power, the Investigation Department attached great importance to it, and a total of 21 agents were dispatched to investigate.

   However, I don't know if there is a certain gap in criminal investigation methods between the two worlds. Fang Ze always feels that his colleagues are a bit "watery".

   Obviously looks very professional, but many obvious clues cannot be found or analyzed.

   Fang Ze is needed every time. The progress of the case was slow.

   Of course, although the ability is a bit poor, the people of these colleagues are very good.

   Maybe because he was a wounded, Fang Ze always felt that these colleagues cared more about him than the case.

   Every time I meet myself, I will ask for help, and every time I want to go out to investigate alone, I will take the initiative to help.

   Anyway, it is very friendly.

   smiled and greeted a few colleagues.

  Fang Ze was in a good mood and was ready to continue to devote himself to the field exploration work.

  As a result, before he could put on the protective gear, suddenly, a voice from behind stopped him.

   "Xiao Fang. Come here?"

  Fang Ze raised his head and saw a detective looking to be in his forties, with a uniform and a yellow jacket waving at him.

   He looked at the unfamiliar and somewhat familiar face of the detective, opened his mouth and said, "Liu Wang. Zhang. Eh."

  The detective didn't care either, and reminded with a smile, "Qin."

   Fang Ze smiled embarrassedly, "Oh. Yes. Qin, Brother Qin. Sorry, Brother Qin, I can't remember you."

   Agent Qin said generously, "It's okay."

   "You've lost your memory after all. It's normal not to remember us. We all understand."

   "It's also because we are too busy, so we temporarily transferred you, so that you can't concentrate on recuperating."

   "So. Sorry, it should be us."

   Fang Ze laughed.

   He felt that he was lucky to have such a group of friendly colleagues just after crossing.

   After chatting for a while, Fang Ze took the initiative to ask, "Brother Qin, what are you looking for from me?"

   Agent Qin then remembered his purpose for calling Fang Ze, and he said, "Come on, come to my side. I found a clue and I need you to fix it for me."

   After speaking, the two came to the lobby of the front hall of the villa.

   As the largest area of ​​the villa, this should be the most luxurious and atmospheric place. But everything was destroyed by a giant stone cone that fell from the sky.

  The stone cone is pointed at the bottom and wide at the top, standing upright and deeply inserted into the ground.

  The marble parquet floor, which was originally full of artistic sense, was forcibly chiseled by the stone cones. From the contact point of the stone cones, it began to shatter like a spider web, and the gravel collapsed everywhere.

   Fang Ze looked up at the huge stone cone.

   Even though he has seen this stone cone many times, Fang Ze will still be amazed at the magic of this world every time he sees it again.

  Because they wanted to assist in the investigation, the Investigation Department gave Fang Ze a lot of internal information.

   Fang Ze also knew that this world is not the same as his own. Has all kinds of magical or weird abilities. collectively referred to as Awakening Ability.

  According to the records in the investigation department, the awakening ability is all kinds of strange.

   For example, in one case, there was a [Doctor] who suddenly awakened his ability to awaken.

   Although there is no change in the appearance of his left hand, the ulnar side of his little finger and the tip of his index finger are as sharp as a scalpel, and he can cut the patient's skin and internal organs with his bare hands, and perform some very complicated operations.

  For example, in another case, there was a [shepherd] who suddenly awakened the ability to control wolves. But every time after the manipulation, he will be transformed into a werewolf, and only on the next full moon night can he return to his original human form.

   For another example, in a group event, there is a group of [beggars], who act alone are ordinary people, but once they gather together and form an organization, there will be a strange [concentricity], they can stack the strength of their bodies and share life.

As for the others, like mushrooms that grow in their bodies that can keep youth forever; they can be cloned infinitely, but every time they clone, their IQ will drop and their strength will increase; if they don't want to learn, they call out a clown who can learn and exercise instead of the master. Moreover, there are more stand-in spirits and so on with double the effect.

  At that time, after reading the introduction of these awakening abilities, Fang Ze became interested in this magical power.

   After all, as a traveler, I came to a world with extraordinary power, how can I not yearn for myself to have this power?

   Not to mention anything else, with this kind of power, in this different world, at least he has the power to protect himself. You can take your destiny into your own hands.

   However, when he wanted to learn more about how to obtain the ability to awaken, he found that there was no record in the data.

   He has asked his colleagues around him. Colleagues just shook their heads blankly, saying that it was a secret, and they didn't know it.

   I just heard that it seems to be based on some spirit, blood, medium or belief.

"Spirit."

   "Bloodline."

   "Medium."

"Belief.?"

  Fang Ze silently kept these suspicious methods in his mind, wondering if he might come into contact with them in the future.

   Of course, he also asked his colleagues if he had the ability to awaken before.

   Colleagues shook their heads firmly this time, saying that Fang Ze had never had the ability to awaken.

  Recovered from his memories, Fang Ze, led by Agent Qin, came to a pile of fresh soil that had just been excavated next to the stone cone.

  Fang Ze didn't react at first, but only after Detective Qin's prompt did he realize that there were some charred ashes mixed in the soil.

   Detective Qin said, "This clue was discovered by accident when I was exploring the scene in the afternoon."

   "You help me fix it, and then show it to my colleagues in the appraisal team to check."

  Because he has the least seniority in the task force, the detectives always have some "dirty work" that Fang Ze will handle.

  Fang Ze was a little uncomfortable at first, but when he found out that there were often important discoveries in these "dirty jobs", he readily agreed.

   This is also the key to his frequent "merit" during this period.

  So, facing Detective Qin's request, he did not refuse, but happily put on rubber gloves and began to collect the dirt mixed with ashes.

   When you get busy, time always goes by very fast.

   Soon, the time of the day passed.

   After a hard day, Fang Ze dragged his tired body to the brick house outside the villa.

   This is a temporary residence specially built by the Investigation Agency for this case.

  Because of the confidentiality of this case, all members of the task force must live in this temporary residence and cannot leave until the case is solved.

   In the residence, there are more than a dozen rooms, each of which is a standard room. Fang Ze lived with a young detective named Wang Hao who was transferred from a high-level city. The two got along very harmoniously.

  Wang Hao is a handsome, cold-faced guy.

  Fang Ze was a little surprised when he saw him for the first time: How could this man be as handsome as himself? It just doesn't make sense.

   and contact, Fang Ze found that Wang Hao's personality is also "very good".

   Maybe because of the high rank of the city he worked for and his poor speech, he had a cold face since he joined the task force, and he didn’t like to talk or smile.

   Fang Ze greeted him, but he just said "um" and didn't pay much attention.

   Until Fang Ze found a lot of clues and gradually "prove his ability" in the task force, his attitude changed a little.

  Although he is still not enthusiastic when facing Fang Ze, he occasionally pretends not to care and asks Fang Ze questions.

   Even after every question, he would return to his stinky appearance, but judging from the fruits and snacks on Fang Ze's bed from time to time, this kid still repays his gratitude.

  So, gradually, Fang Ze got used to this way of getting along with him.

   nothing else. I just like the feeling of conquering arrogance!

   Back in the dormitory, Wang Hao was already sitting on the bed reading a book.

   Hearing the sound of the door opening, he raised his head and looked at Fang Ze.

  Fang Ze entered the door, looked at him, the two looked at each other, and neither spoke a word.

   After a while, Fang Ze took the lead and said hello with a smile, "Good evening."

  Wang Hao responded stinkingly, "Good evening."

  Fang Ze walked over to his bed with a funny look, took off his uniform, then lowered his head and saw a few fresh oranges lying on his table.

   He was about to turn his head to ask, but before he could ask the question, Wang Hao explained without raising his head, "The one I brought at home is about to expire, so I can't eat it."

  Fang Ze smiled, but didn't break it, but naturally put the oranges in the drawer and said thank you.

  Wang Hao continued to read the book dully, as if he hadn't heard it.

  Fang Ze didn't care, he stretched, checked that it was getting late, then got up and went to the toilet to wash up.

   When washing, I don't know if it was an illusion, and vaguely, Fang Ze always felt as if someone was watching him.

   But when he turned his head to check, he found nothing unusual.

   Looking at the door of the toilet, and lingering in a few corners, Fang Ze frowned and turned around.

   "Is it an illusion?"

   "You close your eyes in the middle of the night and suspect that there is a ghost behind you?"

After    attributed the reason to the psychological effects of his previous life, Fang Ze shook his head and continued to wash his head down.

   After washing, Fang Ze returned to the house.

  Wang Hao was still under the light, holding a book and watching silently, as if he had never moved.

   Fang Ze didn't say anything, just climbed into the bed, covered the quilt and prepared to sleep.

   After two seconds, Wang Hao glanced at him. Seeing that he was going to sleep, he silently put a bookmark in the book, closed the book, and turned off the light.

   Fang Ze, who was lying on the pillow, smiled involuntarily: Actually, this guy is also a good person.

Well. Of course, it's worse than other colleagues.

  Cracking the case takes a lot of energy. Therefore, lying on the bed and feeling the exhaustion of his body, Fang Ze soon fell asleep.

   In the dream, Fang Ze seemed to vaguely hear a voice calling him to run, run quickly. There is also a voice, let yourself keep up, don't fall behind.

   Indistinctly, Fang Ze seemed to have dreamed of a red and black cloak. The cloak seemed to be stained with blood.

   After an unknown amount of time, the dream slowly calmed down, but Fang Ze felt that his body was getting hotter and hotter, and he felt a little hot all over.

   In the end, he couldn't help but wake up suddenly.

   As a result, after waking up, he was stunned.

   Because he found that he was not in a temporary residence, but in an empty dark room.
