"I... I'm ready."
Wu Mi answered subconsciously.
Only after she reacted did she realize how fast Ye Yao had moved.
She'd only mentioned it yesterday, and today it was done.
Could efficiency really be that high?
Xia Lian let out a sound of exclamation from the side.
"Wow, White Kitty is really capable. If it goes smoothly, Wu Mi should be able to be removed from the Sequence list, right?"
Ye Yao retorted.
"Then I ask you, then I ask you, if you want to be removed, do you need subsequent observation for a period of time?"
"Unless Wu Mi is willing to stay after saving people and choose to return to a normal life, then she won't have to be a wanted Sequence Esper."
This was indeed a very critical issue.
The reason Wu Mi was brought back by Mu Luo was that, as a Sequence Esper, she was subject to strict control.
But once her ability and personality stabilized and she was recruited by the Countermeasure Bureau, her threat level would greatly decrease.
At that time, Wu Mi would no longer meet the conditions to be a Sequence Esper.
She could completely return to a normal life.
In the future, she could even become an Esper with an official position.
Her future was simply bright!
"I..."
Wu Mi originally wanted to say something to prove herself.
But she was quickly interrupted by Ye Yao's hand.
"Don't rush to say these things. After saving people, think it over carefully. Don't make promises on an impulse."
The white-haired girl placed her hand on Wu Mi's head and stroked it.
"If Wu Mi doesn't succeed then, it'll be over. Then even I will be embarrassed with you."
"Ugh... Can't Ye Yao just trust me..."
Wu Mi pouted aggrievedly.
To make up for her mistake, she had been working very hard to train the feel of her ability.
She constantly experimented with other objects.
Ye Yao must have seen it.
"I believe you, I believe you very much, I'm just afraid that Wu Mi will fail if she gets nervous."
"Hmm, with Ye Yao by my side, I won't be nervous."
"But if I'm not there, wouldn't you explode?
Wu Mi, don't get into the habit of relying on others.
You have to learn to think independently. There will always be times when I'm not by your side."
Ye Yao looked like an adult, full of educational sentiment.
She was clearly about the same petite size as Wu Mi.
It was quite amusing.
Xia Lian watched from the side, covering her mouth to suppress a laugh.
She avoided making a sound to prevent White Kitty from holding a grudge.
Ye Yao looked at Mu Luo.
"Mu Luo, at that time you'll be nearby, ready to respond at any moment. How is your state during the day?"
Considering that Mu Luo's ability, Dark Erosion, was linked to the night.
Thinking in reverse, it might not work as well during the day.
Mu Luo nodded: "No major problem, it's more than enough to get you out."
So reliable!
If his stats were a bit stronger, he would be another Lou Wei.
Ye Yao nodded in satisfaction, waved her hand grandly, and said with a bold voice.
"Good! Tomorrow is the time to change our reputation! Let's work together so we can safely eat out!"
Wu Mi and Xia Lian clapped and cheered enthusiastically from the side.
They certainly provided plenty of emotional value.
"Then, for the smooth progress of tomorrow's plan, let's get a good rest tonight."
At the same time.
Inside the local Countermeasure Bureau.
The news that Sequence 008 was about to bring Sequence 029 back to save people spread within a small circle.
To avoid causing too much debate, currently only the elite Espers participating in the operation knew.
Although the decision-making layer and Lou Wei had discussed it and decided not to set up an ambush, strong combat power was essential to ensure basic safety.
They couldn't just let two high-risk Sequences casually interact with ordinary people.
They were still not very trustworthy.
Only with powerful Espers watching could accidents be avoided.
And Lou Wei had to personally protect sequence 001.
He was destined not to be present to suppress the risk.
At most, he could provide remote support before things became uncontrollable.
At this time, Espers were transferring the innocent victims affected by the Sequence 029 incident.
"I didn't expect the higher-ups to actually agree to the proposal from that illegal organization.
Are they really that honest?
A bunch of bombs moving around makes it hard to feel at ease."
"Only that Sequence 013 is hateful, essentially leading people astray. That Sequence 008 seems a bit more normal."
Sequence Zero was no longer a secret within the Countermeasure Bureau.
They high-profilely cleared out low-ranking Sequences that endangered society.
Twice they even caused such a big commotion.
Anyone who wasn't completely oblivious would know about these things.
Many people were curious about the emerging Sequence 008.
After the Sequence 100 incident was reported.
Almost all Espers knew that the other party was suspected to have S-rank strength.
Comparable to a top combat force within the Countermeasure Bureau.
Out in the world, that would be an individual capable of destroying a nation.
However, such a powerful existence had only recently appeared.
There had been no rumors before.
It made people wonder.
"Presumably, the operation targeting high-risk Sequences was proposed by Sequence 008, so he still has some sense of justice.
Hopefully, it can continue like this, reducing our workload."
High-risk Sequences that directly endangered society always had a very bad reputation.
Sequence Espers who caused ability disasters were always considered dead men in the hearts of Countermeasure Bureau Espers.
On the battlefield, if they could kill in one blow, they would never show mercy.
The initial Sequence Espers who were controlled from the beginning were not so exaggerated.
Once they stabilized, they were the darlings of the Esper world.
Becoming colleagues in the future was not impossible.
Mu Luo was an exception.
He was originally an initial Esper.
Later, his Spiritual Power grew higher and higher, but he never stabilized.
Until one day, his ability went out °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° of control, bursting with its maximum Spiritual Power, and he successfully escaped the controlled area.
That would have been fine.
Later, he also kidnapped one initial Sequence Esper after another from the Countermeasure Bureau.
This was equivalent to stealing a series of extremely powerful bombs.
His reputation directly caught up with those high-risk Sequences who committed murder and arson.
The Espers responsible for the safety of restricted areas would turn livid at the mention of Mu Luo.
Fortunately, Sequence 013 had been much more well-behaved recently, with no news of another raid on the Countermeasure Bureau's restricted area.
Many people speculated that Sequence 008 had been managing the other party, or even the Sequence Zero organization, recently.
This was what allowed "Sequence 0" to emerge.
And recently, a mysterious organization called "Shelter" had also appeared.
It was confirmed to be the mastermind behind numerous ability disasters.
Preliminary evidence suggested that Sequence Zero might not be related to those heinous villains.
The Countermeasure Bureau's level of hostility naturally decreased somewhat.
Currently, the mainstream idea within the Countermeasure Bureau was that Sequence 008 was a vigilante with a righteous heart.
He didn't expose his identity because he didn't want to be constrained.
Like the ancient knights who were unwilling to join the imperial court.
Many people felt it was a pity.
How good would it be if everyone worked together to kill bad guys.
Not only would it be lively, but there would also be an official position.
Becoming a member of that Sequence Zero meant a dark future.
"All personnel have been transferred. A total of 325 victims. Currently, the cycle has been paused through forced sleep. We hope they can return to normal life tomorrow."
It was like pressing pause on a looping video.
As long as their consciousness didn't awaken, they wouldn't repeat the cycle.
Normally, they could only be sustained by nutrient solutions.
Fortunately, it had only just begun.
As long as they recovered in time, it wouldn't have too much impact on their bodies.
"I'll watch over them. Remember to switch shifts on time."
"Alright."
Neither of them noticed.
On a hospital bed in the corner.
A faint purple flame silently entered the human body and quietly lurked.
It was waiting for a suitable moment.
