Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy

Chapter 717: Chapter 490: Kicking the Door

Rong Wei slammed her hand on the table and stood up, “Mu Fan, this is an interrogation room; we cannot accept such frivolous answers.”

Mu Fan looked innocently at the standing Rong Wei, “I hardly read any books when I was young, is loving to learn also a mistake now?”

“You!”

Rong Wei’s chest heaved violently; the boy was more troublesome than she had imagined, and up to now, all the physiological data on the lie detector had been stable.

Which meant that everything Mu Fan had said was actually the truth.

As for the possibility of Mu Fan lying…

Rong Wei didn’t think the likelihood was high because the characteristic of this device was to make inferences based on the collection of some uncontrollable physiological responses of the human body.

Such as the flow rate of blood, the weak perception of bioelectric current, all these factors were uncontrollable by the body.

But in her heart, she just couldn’t believe that what Mu Fan had said was true; the other possibility was that Mu Fan could control any tissue in his body at will, which was simply terrifying.

Unfortunately, not only they, but no one on this planet knew that there was a special kind of energy known as Ghost Energy.

This miraculous energy could not only artificially control some of the body’s functions but could even forcibly replace some of the functions of blood vessels and muscles, achieving superhuman bodily functions.

They were even more unaware that the current Mu Fan was completely covered with Ghost Energy.

Suppressing the spirit to a level as cold as a robot’s, of course, there would be no trace of abnormal fluctuations.

Seeing that it was impossible to get any useful information out of Mu Fan’s mouth, the two could only switch to working with physical evidence.

According to the timeline, they began to fast-forward through the retrieved video surveillance.

Time ticked away by the minute, ten minutes, thirty minutes, one hour…

When two hours later, after Rong Wei and her colleague rubbed their eyes and finished the surveillance footage review, they were utterly driven mad by this kid.

What Mu Fan said… was actually all true.

The kid had always honestly stayed within view of the surveillance, even occasionally yawning.

These surveillances involved Dingchuan Academy’s medical facilities and every road within the Academy.

All the suspicious time points investigated just now matched up perfectly.

Rong Wei swore in her career, she had never seen an interrogation subject with such a tough mentality, with no flaws at all.

The key was this kid was an orphan; there was no chance of getting a lead from his family.

Now, the only time gap left was the period last night when Mu Fan disappeared in Villa No. 1.

If they wanted a breakthrough, they would have to start with that mysterious military unit.

However, just then, Rong Wei’s wrist communicator vibrated gently, and she glanced at the military Sky Communication which showed, her expression becoming stern, and then she passed it to Li Cheng beside her.

“Use all possible means to detain this person; use all possible means to convict.”

The sender’s code was 02…

That was their immediate superior.

This kid must have offended someone high up; since that’s the case, don’t blame us for using extraordinary methods.

Rong Wei had an idea in her mind, her fingers typed something on the wired military Sky Communication, and then casually turned off the device.

The interrogation that followed was unusually normal, which put Mu Fan on high alert in his mind.

There is something odd about the abnormal.

However, Mu Fan didn’t let any signs of suspicion show on his face, and time passed bit by bit.

Finally, Rong Wei flicked the hair beside her ear, then looked at Mu Fan and said, “Today’s investigation is over, besides the military unit you mentioned, that needs verification, you have been cleared of suspicion.”

“Oh, is that so? Is everything over?” Mu Fan asked with a hint of doubt in his heart.

He hadn’t figured out the other party’s intentions yet, but remaining unreactive to changes was ultimately without issue.

“The investigation is over.”

Li Cheng was like a clay statue at this moment, with all the talking done by Rong Wei.

“Since the investigation is done, then I will head back first,” Mu Fan said as he got to his feet, and then walked towards the door.

“Alright…”

Rong Wei responded.

However, as Mu Fan took a step, a sudden buzzing sound.

The lights within the entire house went out instantly, and all operational equipment fell silent.

Without any light, the conversation room where Mu Fan and Rong Wei were located became pitch black.

Even the electronically operated doors couldn’t open.

Mu Fan turned his head and asked calmly,

“What’s the meaning of this?”

The room was in darkness, but Mu Fan could clearly see a hint of mockery in Rong Wei’s eyes.

She had no idea that Mu Fan possessed such exaggerated night vision. She even tried to sound casual and reassuring,

“I’m so sorry, it seems there’s a problem with the base’s power system. Let me go out and ask. Please wait a moment, because without power, the door can’t be opened.”

But the mockery in those eyes within the darkness remained unchanged.

Noting this obvious condescension, as if treating him like an idiot, a hint of playfulness flashed in Mu Fan’s eyes.

“No need.”

As Rong Wei began speaking, focused only on herself, she realized that what Mu Fan said didn’t conform to her expectations.

“I said, no need.”

In the darkness, Mu Fan’s eyes fixed directly on the two people opposite him, revealing a sardonic smile.

“What are you going to do?”

As Mu Fan’s rhythmic footsteps were heard, both Li Cheng and Rong Wei furrowed their brows in the dark.

“Of course, I’m going out.”

“But the power isn’t restored yet, this door simply can’t open. I know you’re upset, but getting angry won’t help. Let’s go out and see what’s happening.”

Mu Fan spoke flatly, “Then let’s go out together.”

After saying that, he pressed down hard with his foot and abruptly kicked out with his right leg.

Boom!

Both of them felt the room shake, and then…

“I’ve said that without power, it’s impossible to open this door. The door weighs over a ton and is made entirely of fine steel.”

Rong Wei kept talking, not able to see the condition of the door, but she was confident–the door hadn’t opened andcouldn’t be forced open; that was enough.

“Oh.”

Mu Fan hummed indifferently, shifting his foot away from the door. In his vision, a shallow footprint was left on the fine steel door.

“Do I need to pay if I break it?”

Rong Wei couldn’t hold back any longer, laughing with inexplicable pleasure, “Even if you tear down this house, you won’t have to pay!”

“Then that’s fine.”

Mu Fan muttered in response, then retreated three steps back, and his right foot slowly pressed down.

Then he suddenly strode out!

As he took the step, the muscles on Mu Fan’s right leg rapidly began to tense, and in an instant, the entire leg swelled to its limit and then compressed to the extreme.

Six Forms * Steel Heavy Step!

With a thundering momentum, that steel-like right leg had already heavily struck the door.

Boom!

Rong Wei’s body, which had been halfway out of the room, felt the tremor travel from her feet to her brain, freezing her in place.

Then, mechanically, she turned her head, her eyes wide with terror, looking at the light pouring through at the door.

There was a hole wider than the door, a gigantic gap, and Mu Fan stood in front of this opening, his smile mocking and profound.
