After all, through these videos and materials, Yang Ming’s body must have some special ability, but it was not obvious. However, there were only a few things which had a higher probability: luck, foresight, and x-ray vision.
A long time ago, luck was taken as an important topic in the Supernatural Investigation Bureau.
The wise man, Zhuge Liang, once said that man proposes but God disposes. That was to say, a person works hard, but that person might not be successful. The key to success lay in the sky, which was what we usually call luck.
In fact, it was true. Not all people who have worked hard would succeed. The key to success lay in the heavens. That was luck.
For a long time, luck was a vain thing. Although it felt illusory, it was undeniable that some people’s fortunes were indeed very good!
For example, some people wouldn’t win a lot of money if they buy lottery tickets for a lifetime. However, some people win the prize once they bought one, then they continued to buy it, and they win the prize for the second, and then the third time.
Excluding the cheating possibility, it could only be explained by luck because it was not in line with probability.
Prediction was also a special ability that the Supernatural Investigation Bureau paid more attention to. This ability was mysterious, but it was very practical! Of course, it was foreseen that this special ability covered a wide range. The most powerful ones could immediately predict what would happen in the future, just like how a famous foreign movie, “NEXT[1],” had depicted it.
However, the Supernatural Investigation Bureau had not yet met people with this ability. However, they did encounter a few cases similar to this. This type of people could not clearly predict the future but had a keen judgment on the future.
For example, the success or failure of a gambling game, the success or failure of a negotiation, or even the good or bad of a thing could be felt in advance. However, what Xia Bingbao did not know was that this ability was not Yang Ming’s, but Lan Ling’s ability.
The only one left was the x-ray vision. This was one of the most incredible and most valuable special abilities. This ability couldn’t be explained at all, and Xia Bingbao had never met a similar person. However, if he had to guess, this kind of person should exist.
The Supernatural Investigation Bureau had not yet encountered people with x-ray vision, but there were some similarities in a few cases, for example, the yin and yang eye, that was to say, people who can see ghosts. There was also a person with a special telescopic eye who could see things far away. There were also people who were particularly powerful in night vision, just like owls.
Basically, there wasn’t much use for the latter two. Telescopic vision could be replaced by binoculars, and night vision could be replaced by infrared night vision.
If Yang Ming’s ability was the first one, Xia Bingbao could only regret, because luck was invisible. Even if he knew Yang Ming’s luck was very good, it was no help to the Supernatural Investigation Bureau. However, Xia Bingbao also felt that this possibility was the smallest. The biggest use of good luck was to have a higher probability of winning in a gamble. It was impossible to know the things in other people’s travel bags, and even more so, it would not be able to guess the card’s contents immediately.
In contrast, the possibility of the third ability was a bit bigger. This made the Supernatural Investigation Bureau director very excited. If Yang Ming really had the ability of x-ray vision, then if he could join the investigation bureau, it would make the investigation bureau even more powerful.
At the meeting to study how to contact Yang Ming, the Supernatural Investigation Bureau received a request from the Song Jiang police to investigate the recent traffic haunting case.
In fact, Xia Xue really was unable to withstand the pressure, and because last night, she and Yang Ming really saw a similar phenomenon of “ghost hitting the wall”[2]. Xia Xue suggested to Chen Fei to involve the Supernatural Investigation Bureau in the investigation because the situation in front of them was not what the police could predict and control.
Since Xia Xue’s brother was working in the Supernatural Investigation Bureau, this matter was naturally more appropriate for Xia Xue to contact. Sure enough, Xia Bingbao heard that his sister almost died because of a “ghost hitting the wall” case and rushed to Song Jiang without saying anything.
Xia Xue’s words also strengthened the determination of Xia Bingbao to see Yang Ming in person. At that time, the situation was like this. Xia Xue told Xia Bingbao about the recent case and her personal experience last night. Xia Bingbao heard Xia Xue say that the person in the same car was very sure about the route he remembered, so they avoided the car accident. Xia Bingbao was very puzzled at the time. How could there be such a confident person? But he didn’t think much of it.
Xia Bingbao promised Xia Xue that he would fly to Song Jiang and help Xia Xue handle these things. However, before ending the call, Xia Bingbao was pretending to be inadvertent and asked, “Little sister, do you have a friend named Yang Ming?”
“Ah… En, yeah. Brother, how did you know?” Xia Xue suddenly had some guilty conscience. She didn’t know why, but when she heard her big brother mention Yang Ming’s name, Xia Xue couldn’t help but feel nervous.
Xia Xue was very clear about the ability of her brother’s department. It could be said that it was much better than the information that the police received. Could it be that Big Brother doubts my relationship with Yang Ming?
As Xia Xue was thinking about it, she heard Xia Bingbao say, “En, Yang Ming is not a simple person. We may invite him to join our investigation bureau.”
Xia Xue herself also belonged to the police department, so Xia Bingbao had nothing to hide from her. Xia Bingbao had already investigated before that Yang Ming and Xia Xue had a good relationship.
“Ah?” Xia Xue heard him, and she was surprised, “Him? Join your investigation bureau?”
“Yes, but the specific situation should be specifically approached. You should not talk to others about this matter.” Xia Bingbao said, “Right. When you interact with Yang Ming, did you find anything special about him?”
Special? Xia Xue thought about it. Yang Ming, aside from being really naughty, seemed to be nothing special. But since her brother asked, Xia Xue knew that it was definitely important. So, she could only answer carefully. “Yang Ming’s skill seems to be particularly good. Even I am not his opponent… And, yes, the one who I just told you that drove yesterday is him.”
“What!?” This time, it was Xia Bingbao’s turn to be shocked. The person who drove yesterday was Yang Ming? Xia Bingbao recalled what Xia Xue had just said to him. A bold and crazy thought suddenly appeared in Xia Bingbao’s mind.
Assume that Yang Ming was not confident in the route because of the impression of his memory, but because he had special abilities! Because of the special ability of the eyes, he saw through the “ghost hit the wall!”
Thinking of this, Xia Bingbao became excited. He briefly said a few words with Xia Xue to tell her not to care about the traffic haunting case anymore, and to wait until he got to Song Jiang.
After getting this important clue, Xia Bingbao quickly reported to the director. The director also took the initiative to order Xia Bingbao to go immediately to Song Jiang to solve the “traffic haunting case.” He was also instructed to contact Yang Ming personally. If Yang Ming really had the ability of “x-ray vision,” Yang Ming should be added to the investigation bureau at all cost.
……
In Chen Fei’s study, Xia Bingbao took out his ID and placed it in front of Yang Ming, “This is my ID. You can check it. I am open to you now. I hope you won’t hide anything from me.”
“Okay.” Yang Ming took Xia Bingbao’s ID, but his heart sneered. Does looking at your ID mean that you are open-minded? Want me to not hide from you? Do you think that I am a one-year-old child or a fool?
He picked up Xia Bingbao’s ID but found two sets of it. One of which was the Supernatural Investigation Bureau, and the other…Yang Ming asked curiously, “You belong to the military?”
“It says so on record, but we are two different institutions. There is no direct relationship between superiors and subordinates, and we report directly to the top.” Xia Bingbao explained, “Some local agencies do not know the existence of our investigation bureau. For convenience in handling a case, we will take out another identity.”
Report to the top? Yang Ming was secretly surprised. It seems that this unremarkable organization that I have never heard of is really amazing! However, it did not scare Yang Ming. Yang Ming did not believe that Xia Bingbao would do anything to him. If he really wanted to do something against Yang Ming, it was better to arrest Yang Ming and interrogate him with his power. There wouldn’t be such a face-to-face peaceful talk.
Yang Ming nodded and returned the ID to Xia Bingbao. He said, “Okay, I have seen it and believe that your identity is true. If you have anything to ask, just ask.”
However, what he did not expect was that after Xia Bingbao put away the IDs, he smiled and asked Yang Ming, “Is this ID very good?”
“What do you mean?” Yang Ming was made somewhat inexplicable by Xia Bingbao.
“Do you want one?” Xia Bingbao continued to ask.
“Want? Want what? Do you want to give me your IDs?” Yang Ming frowned, and his heart faintly guessed something, but his face was still very inexplicable, “For what reason would I want your IDs?”
“Yang Ming, I don’t believe that you can’t understand me.” Xia Bingbao did not continue to talk about the topic just now, but shook his head and said, “If I guessed it correctly, you should be someone with special abilities, right?”
“Special abilities?” Yang Ming did not act without receiving incentives. He wouldn’t say anything before Xia Bingbao revealed everything. “What do you mean? Are you saying that I am someone with special abilities? Ultraman? Terminator? Doraemon?”
“[email protected]#¥%…&*()——” Xia Bingbao rolled his eyes. This Yang Ming is really difficult. I thought that at this age, he would spit out the truth through intimidation and temptation.
