American comics: May the Holy Light deceive you

Chapter 91 "The Zhang Family" - 6

Thirteen days ago, in a rural area of ​​the county town, Li Weijia, who is in his thirties, and more than a dozen of his relatives and family members awakened their abilities. Moreover, the abilities that everyone awakened were very similar: they could heal injuries and help others temporarily enhance their strength.

Those involved were shocked when they learned of this, as such a thing had never happened before.

More importantly, based on previously collected information, Li Weijia's family and relatives do not possess any special genes.

A group of people who do not possess special genes have surprisingly acquired special abilities, and these abilities are remarkably similar. Any normal person could tell that something is amiss.

The news was reported up the chain of command, and the Bureau of Supernatural Abilities Management dispatched an investigation team that same day.

Li Weijia and the others were invited to the provincial branch for inspection. They did not know why they had awakened special abilities, and the physical examination results showed that none of them possessed special genes.

The investigation team, of course, did not give up. They changed direction and began to investigate Li Weijia and his group's recent movements, and they actually discovered a problem.

Li Weijia used his abilities to reduce the presence of his family of three, but he did not erase his internet browsing and spending records, nor did he deliberately block those cameras.

The investigation team quickly ascertained when Li Weijia appeared and what he did after he arrived.

Based on their movements and modus operandi, the investigation team quickly determined that Vega was likely the same person as Li Vega in the countryside. Vega probably came from another universe, and the sudden acquisition of special abilities by Li Vega and others was probably his doing.

It was clear that Vega was an extremely dangerous person, and the investigation team did not make contact with him rashly, but instead called for backup.

Zhang Ruixuan is a support staff member; his abilities are quite unique.

His ability is to transform into a five-clawed golden dragon, and he can reach any place where there are legends, paintings, or sculptures of five-clawed golden dragons, even in other universes.

While the Vega family of three was strolling through the night market, Zhang Ruixuan secretly made close contact with them and extracted a common cosmic coordinate from them.

He led his men to this universe and, based on Vega's name and Little Saint's appearance, obtained information about the three from the Divine Spear Bureau in the east of that world.

Having confirmed that Vega harbored no ill will towards the nation, he spent over ten days in that world, establishing some cooperation with the S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Eastern forces of that world. He then returned to this world, reported to his superiors, and only then did he come here alone to contact Vega.

He had learned from the reports what Vega had been doing in the county town these past few days, but the reports did not mention that Vega had used his abilities to make money.

Zhang Ruixuan's expression turned serious: "Kids, all the money you've spent lately, your father earned through his own abilities? What did he do?"

According to statistics, Vega spent more than five million during this period.

This amount of money is insignificant to a country, but the issue is not whether it is a lot or a little, but whether it is legal.

"Hehe, I only took a little gold. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing and won't do anything reckless." Vega came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of braised lion's head meatballs and a plate of braised pork ribs.

"Oh, time to eat!" Little Shengxi jumped off the sofa and ran towards the dining room.

She suddenly stopped halfway through her run, turned around, and invited Zhang Ruixuan, "Uncle, would you like to eat something together?"

Vega smiled with satisfaction at the sight. His decision to bring the little girl to stay here for a while was definitely the right one. It had only been a few days, and she already knew how to invite guests to dinner.

Zhang Ruixuan politely declined, saying, "Thank you, little friend, but I've already eaten."

Vega: "Don't mention it. I cooked several hearty dishes. Let's have a drink together."

Zhang Ruixuan: "We have a rule that drinking alcohol is not allowed during work hours."

Vega placed the dishes on the table, turned to look at Zhang Ruixuan and said, "Hey, it's okay. When we get back, just say that I forced you, and that I won't talk to you if you don't drink with me."

"Well... alright then." Since Vega had said so, Zhang Ruixuan had no choice but to agree.

"There are a few more dishes, let me help you carry them."

"No need, no need, you can sit here. It's not proper for guests to be served food. Honey, quickly help your uncle to sit down."

"Oh, Uncle, come with me." Little Shengxi obediently ran to Zhang Ruixuan's side, reached out her little hand to grab his big hand and pulled him toward the restaurant.

Zhang Ruixuan: Be careful not to fall. Uncle can walk by himself.

The two arrived at the dining table, and Zhang Ruixuan carried Xiao Shengxi to the baby chair before sitting down next to her.

"Little girl, which one do you want to eat?" Seeing Xiao Shengxi staring at the lion's head meatballs and braised pork ribs on the table, swallowing her saliva, Zhang Ruixuan found a pair of serving chopsticks and picked up Xiao Shengxi's small plate to put some food on her plate first.

Little Shengxi shook her head: "Let's eat together, Daddy."

Zhang Ruixuan: "Oh, why?"

Xiao Shengxi: "Once everyone is here, and the elders have finished speaking and started eating, the younger generation can start eating. That's the rule, Uncle, don't you understand?"

Zhang Ruixuan: "Haha, of course Uncle knows, but Uncle didn't expect you to know these things. Can you tell Uncle when you learned them?"

Xiao Shengxi: "I learned this during this period. No one taught me; I learned it by observing myself."

Zheng Ruixuan: "Really? You're amazing! Tell your uncle, what rules have you learned?"

"There are so many!" Praised, Xiao Shengxi immediately perked up, counting on her chubby fingers: "You can't sit anywhere, you can't point at people with your chopsticks, you can't stick your chopsticks into your bowl, you can't tap your utensils with your chopsticks, you can't stand up to pick up food, you can't rummage through the dishes, you can't lick your chopsticks, you can't point the teapot spout at people, you can't fill your glass too full, you can drink in moderation, you can pour wine from your right side, you can offer it to elders or those of higher status first..."

Xiao Shengxi chattered on about the table manners she had learned through observation, while Zhang Ruixuan listened attentively, occasionally praising her in a slightly exaggerated way.

Vega ran back and forth several times until he sat down in the main seat and poured a glass of wine for both him and Zhang Ruixuan. Only then did Xiao Shengxi stop, still wanting more.

Zhang Ruixuan: "Your daughter is really smart, much smarter than my two girls."

Vega: "Haha, don't flatter her. This girl is a little foodie. She learned all these rules by accident when she saw others eating delicious food. Come on, let's have a toast."

Little Shengxi grabbed the milk bottle and shouted, "I want to touch one too!"

Vega: "See? The truth has been revealed."

Zhang Ruixuan: "You can't expect too much from a child. Come on, little girl, let's have a kiss."

Little Shengxi: "Hehe, Daddy wants to touch it too!"

Vega: "Okay, okay, let's have a chat."
