Facing Samuel’s insolence, Charlie and the officers from the Supernatural Abilities Division remained unfazed, but the atmosphere immediately tensed up. Samuel’s attitude indicated that he wouldn’t easily compromise this time.

Seeing the tension escalating, Nancy, who had been standing behind Charlie all along, began to feel anxious. According to the original plot, if they didn’t rescue Sherry soon, tragedy was likely to occur again.

So, Nancy tucked her pistol into her sleeve and placed the submachine gun on the hood of the nearby police car. Then, she took a step forward. In this extremely tense atmosphere, Nancy’s actions immediately made her the focal point of both sides.

“Oh? Where did this little girl come from? Officer Charlie, are you bringing your daughter to work?” Samuel seemed oblivious to the half barrel of a gun peeking out of Nancy’s sleeve, allowing her to approach him.

“Mr. Samuel… Is Sherry here?” Nancy took a deep breath and asked softly, but despite her inquiry, her tone exuded certainty.

“Sherry?” Samuel blinked, then looked strangely at the girl in front of him. For some reason, he suddenly had a bizarre thought: that this girl before him was even more extraordinary than Sherry.

Unfortunately, judging from her tone, she seemed quite sharp-tongued.

“She is here with me, what about it? Miss… Do you want to join her?” Samuel paused for just a moment, then wore a cynical expression on his face, even attempting to grab Nancy’s wrist.

But at that moment, Samuel felt his outstretched hand being firmly held by another powerful hand. Tilting his head slightly, Samuel saw a silver-haired boy with cat ears, dressed in Roland High School uniform. The hand extended towards him was already gripped by this sudden newcomer.

“Mr. Samuel, it’s not very polite to lay hands on a girl, is it?” Su Xiaoyu said sternly, his tone rigid. “And trafficking humans is illegal.”

“Trafficking humans? Are you talking about Sherry?” Samuel was completely stunned. He glanced at Su Xiaoyu holding his hand, then at Nancy in front of him, and then looked past the two to the expressionless Charlie.

Then, his expression changed as if he had heard something extremely amusing. His lips curled up, and this nonchalant young master suddenly retracted the hand held by Su Xiaoyu, causing the latter’s face to pale in shock at the display of his strength, while Samuel covered his stomach, then burst into laughter!

“Trafficking humans… Hahaha! Trafficking humans? Tell me, just for a worthless girl who wouldn’t resist even if sold by her father…” Samuel laughed, tears seeming to well up at the corners of his eyes. “Officer Charlie… Oh, Officer Charlie, come on, tell me, you’re not also…”

Samuel tilted his head to look at the darkening expression on Charlie’s face, laughing even more joyously. “No way hahaha! Officer Charlie, you guys are really making such a big fuss over an ordinary girl?”

“Someone who doesn’t know might think you’re going to fight us!”

“Where are we? This is the Longmen Gang! Officer Charlie, do you know how to write the words ‘Longmen Gang’?” Samuel’s words grew louder and louder. Eventually, the smile vanished from his face, replaced by a sinister expression.

Click! At that moment, Samuel’s words abruptly halted, because a black barrel was already pressed against his forehead.

The snowy-haired girl’s movements were so fast that everyone present failed to react. Even Samuel, who had been calm from the beginning, showed a hint of surprise on his face.

“Mr. Samuel, this modified pistol now contains seven 7.62mm heavy bullets. Before you or your people act, I’m confident I can shoot out at least three bullets.” Nancy spoke calmly.

After pulling out her gun, Nancy felt at least several icy glares lock onto her in that instant. Without needing to think, she knew it was those black-clad individuals who had disappeared after Samuel’s laughter. Perhaps any slight movement on her part would result in her demise the next moment.

“If I’m not mistaken, you’re a fourth-tier fire elemental ability user. Although this level of ability can enhance physical fitness significantly, when it comes to attacks of this level…” Nancy gestured with her mouth towards the pistol in her hand. “Should still be able to reduce your weight to… a mere five kilograms… like a box.”

Click! Click!

At this moment, prompted by Charlie’s signal, the officers who were previously scattered in vigilance loaded their bullets. Some of the supernatural officers had already activated their abilities, aiming directly at Samuel and the members of the Longmen Gang behind him.

Even Su Xiaoyu, who had just been forced to stand aside, took out a thick stack of talismans, ready to throw them all out if things went awry.

As for Charlie himself, a white light gleamed in his hand, exposing the black-clad figures hidden in the shadows. With faces marked by uncertainty and gloom, they retreated behind Samuel, their hands instinctively reaching for their chests.

“Some flies that haven’t even reached the fourth tier shouldn’t be showing off.” Charlie shook his head and casually waved his hand. The firearms aimed at them by the members of the Longmen Gang also suddenly seemed to suffer a heavy blow. All the gun barrels twisted and damaged on the spot, rendering them useless.

He hadn’t intended to reveal his strength, but he had already sensed something just now, so it didn’t matter whether he exposed it or not.

“Officer Charlie is truly bold… Using a fifth-tier ability technique as soon as you act,” a cheerful voice came from the shadows in the northeast corner of the parking lot amidst the silence. “These junior skills are not refined. I wonder if adding my old bones can make Officer Charlie show his full strength?”

A silver-haired old man in a brown robe stepped out of the shadows, smiling. Behind him was a middle-aged man in a black suit and six warriors in ancient armor, their faces indiscernible.

Donovan Shang, one of the elders of the Longmen Gang, controlled nearly one-third of the gang’s armed forces. He himself was also a sixth-tier pinnacle wind element ability user, surpassing the strength displayed by Charlie at this moment.

Charlie tilted his head slightly, seeing the middle-aged man beside Donovan giving him a reassuring look. He then clasped his hands together. “Charlie’s skills are nothing in front of the senior.”

“Hehe… Officer Charlie is modest. As one of the pillars of the Tianzhou Security Bureau’s Supernatural Abilities Division, Sir Charlie is not to be underestimated,” Donovan said, looking at Samuel and the others. “What’s with all this commotion? Officer Charlie is a guest of our Longmen Gang, not those outdated police officers who can’t distinguish right from wrong. Isn’t it time to disperse?”

With just one sentence from Donovan, the gang members gathered by Samuel dispersed within a few minutes. As for Nancy, after glancing at both Samuel and Donovan, she decided to lower her firearms.

“Hmph!” Samuel sneered at Nancy and retreated to Donovan’s side.

“I wonder what my nephew did wrong to have Officer Charlie personally come to the door to question him…” Donovan seemed to just notice the police officers behind Charlie now, furrowing his brows as he inquired, “Officer Charlie, feel free to speak frankly. I will definitely punish this reckless kid properly.”
