Ignoring the insane words of the equally hopeless doctor, Liu XiYang opened his mouth and asked, "If I understand correctly, this job should be to serve as a bodyguard for Miss Su CongShuang, right? So... are you really sure that this job can be done without me using my superpowers?" Although Liu XiYang was expelled from his original school due to the three-year monster-fighting trip, and couldn't find a proper job due to his lack of a diploma and his appearance looking too young, he could only ask Dr. Alice Fil for help in introducing some private jobs... But even so, it didn't mean that Liu XiYang was willing to use his superpowers to accelerate the side effects for the sake of money.
"That's right! It's Hero Acadamy, and there must be many other superheroes inside! So you just need to play the role of an ordinary student that I have arranged for you!"
Liu XiYang carefully considered Alice Fil's words and felt that it seemed to make sense.
"Then, what's the duration of the mission and the reward?" Liu XiYang scratched his face and calculated a little bit. Since the client was one of the largest shareholders of Hero Association it must not be a low reward!
Of course, Liu XiYang did not do this for money, but because he was a superhero who had saved the world. Although it was just a simple bodyguard job, it would not be appropriate for Liu XiYang to take it if the reward was not befitting of his identity. Really, it was not because of the money!
"Let me think, it seems to need at least two months' time?" The other side of the phone said uncertainly.
"That long!?? If... If the reward is too low, I won't accept it!" Hearing that it would take up two months of his time, Liu XiYang was very angry, extremely angry, feeling that two months was enough time to do many things! So the reward must be high enough! As for how much...
"Don't worry, although the time is a bit long, the reward is quite considerable!" Hearing Liu XiYang's dissatisfaction, the other side of the phone quickly reassured him.
"How much?" According to Liu XiYang's expectation, 1 million should be the least amount. If the client has that much money, the reward should not be less than 1 million!! Hmm... Am I being too greedy? Thinking about such a huge fortune, Liu XiYang felt a little guilty. However, considering the time cost, 1 million it is! If it's less than 1 million, Liu XiYang planned to hang up the phone right away. By the way, Liu XiYang had never hung up someone else's phone, so he wanted to try it this time.
"Let me see, ah, it's 100 million."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Alice?" Alice Fil asked, somewhat confused by the sudden silence on the other side of the phone.
The next second...
"When... When does school start? What procedures do I need to prepare? Tell me, which Demonborn threatens Miss's safety? I'll eliminate them all right now! No... no no no... or even destroy the earth, then there would definitely be no threats to Miss... Haha, hahaha, hahahaha." Liu XiYang on the phone, after hearing the number, his pretty face showed a somewhat frantic look, his pupils trembled violently, and his hands and feet stiffened, accompanied by unnatural laughter.
After a while, Liu XiYang finally calmed down.
"Alice, by the way, what new identity did you prepare for me?" Forcing himself to suppress the excitement in his heart, God, 100 million, how many 1 million are in 100 million? Liu XiYang couldn't even calculate it! Of course, Liu XiYang knew that Alice Fil wouldn't have reported his original superpower, so there must be another fabricated superpower identity, so he asked curiously.
The other side of the phone was silent for a moment, seemingly looking at the information, and then said."Oh, it seems like a superpower that can control the size of one's own chest. How about it, Liu? Isn't it perfect for you?" Dr. Alice Fiel chuckled as she answered.
In an instant, a huge word "Well" appeared on Liu XiYang's already blushing face.
"Hahaha, sorry, sorry, I was just teasing you. After all, your reaction is so cute! I'll send you the real information now, just receive it on your phone." Alice Fiel's reaction was quick on the other end of the phone, covering her mouth as she snickered while sending a document to Liu XiYang's phone.
Liu XiYang opened the received information on her phone, and mumbled as she seriously read from top to bottom.
"Name: Liu Xi... Even if I have to change my name, why change it to one that sounds so feminine? Superpower: Rapid reaction... Oh, this is fine. After all, because of my superpowers, my physical reaction is already hundreds of times faster than ordinary people even without using my superpower. Proficient in: Brazilian jiu-jitsu, karate, judo, aikido, mixed martial arts, capoeira, taekwondo, Muay Thai, Jeet Kune Do, Tai Chi, Nine Yin Scriptures, Dragon 18 palms, Turtle School, Hadouken, Shoryuken, 127th style · Kuihua, Forbidden 1211 style · Eight Virgins... Alice, did you puff me up too much? I don't remember learning these! Also, what are these last few skills???"
"Uh... I'll send you some video materials later, and with your physique and learning ability, you should be able to master them quickly. Ahem, if there is nothing else, I’ll hang up now, bye..."
For some reason, Liu XiYang felt a little guilty when she heard Alice Fiel's words.
Liu XiYang didn't care too much and continued to read. However...
"Wait a minute! Alice, why does the gender section on this information say 'female'?!" Liu XiYang widened her eyes and asked incredulously.
"Oh, dear, because the client requested us to provide personal protection, you don't know how many connections I used to arrange for you to stay in the same dormitory as Miss Su CongShuang! Anyway, I suddenly have something urgent here, bye!"
On the other side of the phone, Alice Fiel hurriedly hung up after giving a random explanation, leaving Liu XiYang dazedly looking at the capital "F" on her phone, tears streaming down her face.
After a moment of silence, Liu XiYang slowly stood up... Even though she really wanted to fly to M country right now and beat up that woman with bad taste, but for the sake of one billion, let's endure this time! It's just wearing women's clothes for two months... For a billion, for a billion! Liu XiYang encouraged herself in this way.
...
At this moment, far away in a luxurious, high-tech-filled laboratory in M country, a beautiful silver-haired woman dressed in a tight, white robe accentuating her sexy figure stood, her hands crossed over her chest, the phone she held occasionally touching her plump lips.
"Oh... I seem to have forgotten to tell him that the billion has already been spent on setting up my laboratory... But...it should be fine, right? Probably..."
After mumbling to herself for a few sentences, the sexy silver-haired woman raised her eyebrows, casually threw her phone behind her, and bounced happily towards the newly renovated, 30-million-dollar electronic equipment. The thrown-out phone magically suspended in mid-air just as it was about to fall to the ground, then floated through the air like an invisible hand was holding it, flying in the direction of the silver-haired woman.
...
Stepping out of her bedroom, Liu XiYang saw Li ShiNing holding her dinner, sitting cross-legged on the sofa, giggling foolishly at the TV.
The TV was broadcasting a popular superhero animation. Liu XiYang had watched a few episodes. The content was about a future town where the world of human heroes had developed prosperously. There were towns, schools, supermarkets, beauty salons, and all the heroes lived happily. (Liu XiYang had commented that this place seemed no different from our society now).However, one day, two Demonborn appeared in the gray area outside the town, namely Gray Demonborn and Red Demonborn. They intended to eat the heroes in the town! So under the concerted efforts of heroes in the town like Joyous Hero, Beautiful Hero, Lazy Hero, and Excited Hero, they always managed to defeat the evil Gray Demonborn! Poor Gray Demonborn never managed to bring a delicious hero home, and every day he was beaten half to death by Red Demonborn with a frying pan.
"Puahaha, Xixi, look! Gray Demonborn's plan has failed again, and he was beaten badly by Red Demonborn after returning home! Joyous Hero and the others are so smart! But, it would be nice if the real Demonborn were as cute and interesting as Gray Demonborn and Red Demonborn," said Li Shin, who was completely absorbed in the animation and even began to sympathize with the Demonborn.
Liu XiYang shook his head helplessly while looking at the silly woman. He then walked over to her, and gently wiped a grain of rice off the corner of her mouth, and looked at her with disgust.
"Just focus on eating while having a meal. You always want to watch TV, especially such childish programs! Hurry up and finish eating, then go wash the dishes!" he said.
"Oh..." Seeing the serious Liu XiYang, the remorseful Li Shin reluctantly agreed. She obediently shoveled rice into her mouth, but her eyes kept drifting towards the cartoon on TV.
As Liu XiYang was about to sit down and think about the work he just took on, a snowy white arm suddenly stretched out and hugged his neck. Li Shin casually leaned against him, watching TV with one arm around his neck while holding a bowl of rice in the other hand.
"Xixi, Xixi, do you think...it might be possible for Demonborn to think, speak, and communicate with people like Gray Demonborn and Red Demonborn? Maybe in the future, we could all live happily together without having wars?" Li Shin asked innocently, her eyes glued to the animation while she continued to eat.
Could Demonborn really speak? Could they have thoughts? It's an impossible thing that everyone in the world knows, and the animation "Joyous Hero and the Gray Demonborn" is just a comforting story for children. However, facing Li Shin's question, Liu XiYang was left speechless...
Scenes from the past three years flashed in front of Liu XiYang's eyes, and it was not until Li Shin had finished her bowl of rice that he came back to reality.
"Maybe..." Liu XiYang's words seemed to be answering Li Shin's question, but also seemed to be talking to himself...
As for Li Shin, she had long forgotten the question she just asked, and once again lost herself in the world of the cartoon.
