Chapter 4 Ishibashi Ye's Journey
"You don't need to worry about this issue."
The man in the coat said, "I have sent someone to handle this matter. Even if you go to the orphanage to look up the information, you can find the adoption records from three years ago."
"Also, I have asked someone to buy you a plane ticket to the United States. You can leave in three days."
Shiqiaoye hesitated for a while: "But..."
He was only halfway through his words when he was interrupted by the man in the coat.
"There's nothing to hesitate about." The man in the coat said, "You're an orphan anyway. You don't have any relatives in the island country, and you have very few friends. You don't even have a girlfriend. For someone like you who has nothing to worry about, it shouldn't be a big deal for you to live in the United States, right?"
"Just think of it as a trip. It's worth noting that you only need to live in the United States for one year. After that year, you can come back anytime."
Ishibashi Ye sighed helplessly: "I understand."
The man in the coat raised his finger and pointed at the note on the table: "After receiving this check, you must do what I say. If you regret it after receiving the check, I will find you no matter where you escape. Do you understand?"
"Well, I know what to do." Ishibashi Ye nodded solemnly.
"One more thing..." The man in the coat said again: "Your house is on fire."
"What?!"
Shi Qiaoye was stunned for a moment, as if he remembered something. His face became flustered, and he suddenly stood up from the sofa and turned around.
Sure enough, behind him, flames were roaring, and the source of the flames came from the burning cabinet.
Just now, after the phone exploded, the cabinet was set on fire, but no one cared. The fire spread and became bigger and bigger. It was no longer a small matter that could be easily solved.
Especially the cabinet at the center of the fire, which has now been burned to charcoal.
"What should I do? What should I do..."
Shi Qiaoye was so frightened by the fire that his legs went limp and he fell to the ground, sweating profusely and feeling completely at a loss.
He wanted to find water to put out the fire, but he had always been timid, and now his legs were so weak that they felt like they were filled with lead, and he didn't even have the strength to stand up.
At this moment, the man in the coat slowly stood up from the sofa and shook his head helplessly: "Yeah, this is true."
He raised his feet and walked calmly to the burning cabinet, then raised his finger and lightning surged.
Crackling!
The surging lightning swirled out from his arms, and the arcs of electricity made a roaring sound, and then rushed towards the madly burning flames.
boom!
The raging fire encountered the oncoming lightning, just like a mouse encountering a cat, and it went from being the strong side to the weak side. Then it was covered by the lightning, and the fire continued to shrink.
In the end, these terrible thunder and lightning actually extinguished the flames, leaving only a cabinet that turned into charcoal.
Seeing that the problem had been resolved, the man in the coat casually snapped his fingers and retracted the lightning that was spreading in the air.
Although the thunder and lightning disappeared, the aftereffects of the confrontation between thunder and fire still existed. Now the air in the whole house became extremely dry, and all the moisture was evaporated by the thunder and lightning and flames. If a match was lit in such an environment, the extinguished fire might reignite.
But these matters are no longer his business.
Ishibashi Ye who was standing nearby witnessed the previous scene, his eyes widened, his face full of shock, his mouth opened so wide that he couldn't close it at all.
What did he just see?
A being who can control lightning easily put out the spreading fire...
Ishibashi Ye felt that the worldview formed by his experiences over the past fifty years since he was born had now been completely overturned.
Are there really people with super powers in this world?
Am I dreaming?
The man in the coat ignored Shiqiaoye who was lying on the ground. He just left a light sentence "Take care of yourself" and his figure turned into intertwined lightning. It flashed lightly and disappeared completely without leaving any trace.
After the fire was put out, there was no need for him to stay here any longer. I think Shi Qiaoye should know what to do next. After the man in the coat left, Shi Qiaoye stared at the charred ground for three minutes.
After finally coming to his senses, he quickly took out his cell phone and found that the signal had been fully restored and could be used at any time.
Shiqiaoye stood up tremblingly, walked into his bedroom, started typing on the keyboard, and searched for some information on the computer.
The first thing he searched for was information about the organization called "Fang Group".
The man in the coat said that he was from the Fang Group. He also said that the Fang Group was a world environmental protection organization. If this is true, then we should be able to find information about this organization on the Internet, right?
However, this organization seemed to be very unpopular. Shi Qiaoye searched for a few minutes before finding some simple information.
According to the information in the materials, the Fang Group is actually a world environmental protection organization, and has been officially recognized by the world.
In other words, this organization is not a non-governmental organization, but a large official organization covering the globe.
In addition, the founder and founding time of this organization, as well as other more detailed information, are all unknown, or simply blank and cannot be found.
Shiqiao Ye suddenly understood something.
After all, he was not an idiot and reacted quickly.
The Fang Group is definitely not an environmental protection organization. The so-called "environmental protection organization" is just a superficial identity. The true identity of the Fang Group is a secret organization. That is why there is so little information about this organization on the Internet, and a lot of the content is unclear.
Shiqiao Ye had personally seen the lightning controlled by the man in the coat. If the other party was really a member of the Fang Group, then...
This organization is so terrifying that it is beyond imagination. It is not something that an ordinary person like Ishibashi Ye can afford to provoke.
Thinking of this, he picked up his phone and started making a call.
Ishibashi Ye has few friends, one of whom is Professor Agasa, and another is the police chief of Osaka City.
The call was quickly connected, and before Ishibashi Ye had time to speak, the police chief's generous voice came over.
"Shiqiao, I've already bought your ticket. It's first class. I bought it myself."
"Wait..." Shiqiao Ye was stunned and almost didn't react: "Who told you to do this?"
The police chief said, "This is an order from above. They asked me to book you a flight to the United States in three days. As for who gave this order, I don't know."
"........."
Ishibashi Ye was silent for a while, then hung up the phone.
It seems that he will definitely not be able to escape this trip to the United States.
I really didn't expect that the Fang Group is so powerful, and they have people on top...
Ishibashi Ye smiled bitterly, then looked around, thinking about what to put in the suitcase.
Anyway, he couldn't escape the trip in three days, so he might as well pack his things now.
………………
Time returns to the present.
Late at night, an airliner took off from Tokyo Airport and headed for the United States.
In the first-class cabin of the plane, Ishibashi Ye looked out the window quietly, silent.
Suddenly, his cell phone rang.
