The document contains numbers in four colors and the letters J, Q, and K.
Jimmy immediately realized that this represented the face value on a playing card!
The reason there are four colors is because playing cards are marked with four suits: hearts, spades, clubs, and diamonds. However, Chen Xu used two red and two black cards instead, adding four colors plus the two Jokers (one red and one black).
Jimmy paused for a moment, then lifted the newspaper covering the playing cards and matched them one by one. At this moment, the others also realized what was happening and crowded around the computer and the playing cards.
"Nine of Hearts, Six of Spades, Three of Clubs, King of Diamonds..."
Everyone's face turned incredibly ugly in an instant!
Although Chen Xu didn't mark which color represented which card in the Word document, he didn't need to! Because the numbers of all the suits he played were exactly the same as the cards on that deck!
54 playing cards, including their suit order, not a single one is correct!
"Is he even human...?"
Chapter 301 of the main text: Who arrested whom?
Even if Jimmy and Huang Chong had used smart drugs, it would be impossible for them to remember all 54 playing cards, including their suits and order... especially after only glancing at them!
How long did he take that one glance?
One second? Or half a second?
Jimmy knew his eyesight and mental arithmetic skills were already incredibly good, enough to be considered top-tier in Las Vegas, but memorizing all the cards in such a short time was absolutely impossible!
What makes Chen Xu so special?
How does he possess such extraordinary mental arithmetic and memory?!
They thought they already possessed superhuman abilities, but they discovered that the gap between them and their goals had widened even further! This huge disparity made Jimmy and the others feel like crying... Is SMMH really that strong? If even one of his apprentices is like this, then how unfathomable must he himself be?!
Seeing Huang Chong and the others' ashen faces, the students from the Life Sciences Department exchanged bewildered glances... Gamble? What a load of rubbish! Chen Xu was right, what right do we have to compete with him?!
It's not the strength of the opponent that's scary, but the fact that the opponent is so strong that you can't even see their shadow. That kind of gap in strength and resources makes everyone feel hopeless.
"Why did Heaven create both Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang?" But the question is... can they compare to Zhou Yu?!
So what if you can learn from Dr. Li? Will Chen Xu's future achievements be any less than Dr. Li's?!
The group walked away dejectedly, leaving only Jimmy Huang Chong and others behind.
After standing there for a long while, the girl finally couldn't hold back her tears. She had worked so hard for so long, thinking she was already very strong. But little did she know that the gap between her and the other person was so huge, so huge that she could never catch up in this lifetime.
When a wish is not fulfilled, the girl is naturally the first to be devastated.
"Don't cry!" Jimmy slammed his fist on the table, his usual composure and strategic mind gone. His eyes were bloodshot as he cried out, "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! No one could be that powerful! He must have taken drugs, just like us!" Jimmy grabbed Huang Chongdi's collar and shook him violently. "Isn't that right?! Isn't that right?! He must have taken drugs! And they're even more advanced than ours!"
Seeing Huang Chong's ashen face, Jimmy screamed in anguish, "I refuse to accept this!"
Huang Chong's reaction was not so intense, but rather his face was ashen: "Even if he took the drug, we still lost. His drug is more advanced than ours... SMMH, he really is a god. Every aspect he gets involved in is a miracle."
"Impossible!" Jimmy roared. "No way! I must capture this guy and torture him to extract a confession! I must get that prescription! I will not allow anyone in this world to be superior to me!"
Huang Chong and the others all showed expressions of contempt.
Jimmy's background is unknown, but he holds a very high position. Although he is nominally Dr. Li's assistant, even Dr. Li treats him with utmost respect!
This guy usually acts all high and mighty, all that pretentious air about him. His self-righteousness is inherently annoying, but when his brain can't process what he's doing, he becomes like this, shedding all his pretense and turning into a petty scoundrel.
At that moment, Huang Chong suddenly felt that this guy was... quite pitiful!
"I think we should inform Dr. Li first..." someone timidly voiced their thoughts.
"Who does Dr. Li think he is?!" Jimmy slapped him, sending him flying, blood trickling from his mouth. Huang Chong and the others were shocked and quickly helped him up, glaring angrily at Jimmy. But seeing his bloodshot eyes, as if he were insane, no one dared to utter a sound.
Jimmy sneered, "Don't tell Dr. Li about this! I'm in charge here! Remember, you're all just guinea pigs! Pathetic guinea pigs! You have no right to tell me what to do! Yes, we need to inform Dr. Li! His medicine isn't perfect yet; he needs to develop a more perfect one than the one Chen Xu used! You lot, if you don't want to die, you'd better behave yourselves! Tonight, come with me to capture Chen Xu; I must get his formula!"
Seeing the resistance on their faces, Jimmy, not being stupid, softened his tone and said, "Don't you want to break free from the control of that potion? I believe the perfect potion won't cause addiction like the one we're taking now. If any of you disobey, you won't be able to get the potion from me anymore... Think about the consequences."
Huang Chong and the others' expressions changed, and they finally nodded helplessly. They were already very dependent on this intelligence drug, just like drug addicts. If they didn't get the drug to replenish their fluids, they would go crazy.
The medicine was all in Jimmy's hands... Even Dr. Li was only in charge of research; he didn't have the medicine himself!
“Chen Xu, Chen Xu…” Jimmy sneered, “You really gave me a surprise!”
Jimmy looked at one of the girls who was fairly good-looking: "Xiao Ye, the task of luring out Chen Xu today is assigned to you. You know what I mean."
"You!" Xiao Ye's face turned pale, but fearing Jimmy, she lowered her head and said, "He has three beautiful women with him, why would he be interested in me?"
"So what if they're beautiful?!" Jimmy sneered. "Those three girls had their legs straight and tightly closed, their skin dry and dull, they were still complete virgins. Chen Xu is at the prime of his life, how could he resist temptation?"
"You!" Xiao Ye was on the verge of tears: "I will never be such a shameless woman!"
Huang Chong stood in front of Xiao Ye, glaring angrily at Jimmy: "How could you let her do that?!"
Jimmy grinned menacingly, "To achieve your goal, you'll stop at nothing!" Seeing Xiao Ye and Huang Chong's expressions, Jimmy knew he couldn't push her too far. Otherwise, someone as shrewd as Chen Xu would definitely not take the bait if he sensed something was off about her tone. So he softened his tone, "It's not like you have to sell your body. Getting Chen Xu to the designated place is a simple matter. How about this? You call Chen Xu and say you have something important to tell him, and ask him to meet you in the grove behind the lab building. We'll then take advantage of the situation and subdue him. Is that alright?!"
His last sentence wasn't even a question for Huang Chong and the others' opinions; it was his own decision. Jimmy patted his clothes: "It's settled then. You guys go do what you need to do now. I'll go and keep Dr. Li calm. Hmph, I hope no gossips get to Dr. Li's ears."
Watching Jimmy walk out the door, Xiao Ye burst into tears and threw herself into Huang Chong's arms, crying, "What are we going to do? I don't want to live like this anymore! I don't want to be some kind of superhuman with high intelligence anymore!"
The others also showed expressions of shared sorrow, as if they were all living in constant fear of losing their lives under Jimmy's wing.
"Let's go find Dr. Li and expose him!"
Huang Chong shook his head: "That's impossible! First of all, how can we convince Dr. Li that his most prized product is actually a drug?! Secondly, Dr. Li can't possibly outmaneuver Jimmy. Our lives are in his hands!"
"I don't want to do this anymore!" a student cried out in anguish, clutching his head. "I'd rather not have participated in this experiment! And even if we had, what good would it have done? We're far inferior to SMMH's apprentices! We can't possibly be better than him!"
"SMMH's apprentice?!" Huang Chong's eyes lit up: "That's right! Now, the only one who can stand up to Jimmy and save us is Chen Xu! Let's go find Chen Xu! We surrender! As long as we don't have to live like this anymore, we'll surrender!"
"Surrender? Will Chen Xu accept us? We've treated him like that all this time..."
Huang Chong thought for a moment, then nodded firmly: "He will! Because we are not enemies!"
It's evening. 11 o'clock.
Behind the life sciences research building is a small grove of trees, a favorite spot for university students to meet up at night. But now it's 11 pm, and lights will be out soon. So, the usual lively atmosphere is gone.
It was dark and windy.
Xiao Ye walked over, her face calm: "I've already called Chen Xu, and he said he'll be here soon."
Jimmy smiled, though it was difficult to see clearly in the darkness. "Very good. Xiao Ye, you wait in the middle. The rest of you, as arranged beforehand, you two block the doorway and don't let Chen Xu escape. Huang Chong, as soon as Chen Xu arrives, you rush out and hold him off. As for me..." Jimmy licked his lips, toying with the miniature stun gun in his hand, "I'll make him comfortable!"
Huang Chong frowned: "Won't this thing... hurt someone?"
Jimmy turned to look at him, scoffing, "Don't worry, I won't use this while you're entangled with him. It won't hurt you, so what are you afraid of?" Then he looked at the stun gun in his hand: "Thirty thousand volts of high voltage. I'll show you what a death throes looks like... After we catch Chen Xu, if he obediently reveals the whereabouts of SMMH and the drug, I won't make things difficult for him. If he doesn't talk... Hmph, then we'll soak his hands in water, and then... Hehe, he'll be in for it!"
"What a ruthless guy!" That's what everyone around was thinking. Just then, Xiao Ye suddenly shouted from the front, "Someone's coming!"
The crowd immediately fell silent, lying motionless in the grass. They could see a figure slowly walking towards them in the dim light ahead. They couldn't make out the figure or appearance, but it was definitely Chen Xu!
Jimmy licked his lips and whispered, "Everyone, get ready... Ah!"
Just then, Jimmy suddenly felt a sharp pain in his arm, so intense that he couldn't help but scream. He realized he had completely lost feeling in his right hand! He knew it was dislocated! But what he didn't expect was that the person who attacked him was Huang Chong, who was right next to him!
Huang Chong sneered and with a swift and decisive motion, dislocated Jimmy's other arm. Then, he delivered a powerful punch to Jimmy's back, knocking him to the ground. With another swift motion, he dislocated both of Jimmy's legs. Finally, he grabbed Jimmy's chin and pulled it down, dislocating Jimmy's jaw as well!
impossible!
Huang Chong definitely doesn't have that kind of skill!
Jimmy stared at "Huang Chong," his jaw dislocated, and could only manage a muffled question: "Who...who are you!"
"How clever!" the man chuckled. "You know I'm not Huang Chong, and you want to capture me, don't you? Then let's see who ends up in whose hands."
"You're Chen Xu?!"
Chapter 302 of the main text is wrong
Jimmy blurted out those words subconsciously, but he never imagined that the person next to him would be Chen Xu!
That's clearly Huang Chong!
Even though it was dark, how could Jimmy possibly mistake that face?!
Could it be a disguise technique?!
But Jimmy quickly realized, how could that be? Did they really think disguise was as exaggerated as in the movies? No matter how powerful the disguise technique was, it was impossible to turn one person into someone else who looked exactly the same!
But then, Jimmy's vision blurred for a moment, and in that instant, he saw the face of the person in front of him... Chen Xu!
Even their clothes have changed!
"How is this possible?! How is this possible?!" Jimmy's jaw was dislocated. He roared incredulously, like a wounded wild animal. He simply couldn't believe his eyes. How could Huang Chong have turned into Chen Xu in the blink of an eye?!
At this moment, Chen Xu picked up his phone and said, "It's ready, let's go."
Four burly men rushed in, quickly lifting Jimmy from the ground. One of the men ruthlessly squeezed his mouth shut, laughing, "No poison? This guy's too unprofessional." Another man quickly and professionally searched Jimmy, pulling out a cigarette case and whistling, "Look what this kid has on him! British intelligence gear, a cigarette case pistol with a single bullet. These guns are allowed on airplanes because they're made of special materials; metal detectors can't detect them." He looked at Jimmy lying on the ground and chuckled, "Looks like our kid's got quite a background!"
Jimmy then recognized them—the four men were indeed the school's four security guards! Were they really security guards?!
Chen Xu laughed and said, "Alright, be careful with our distinguished guest, don't kill him, he still has a great use to him. Gentlemen, you should have a place for interrogation, right? Should we carry him over? Oh, right, I forgot one thing. We should call Dr. Li over as well."
At this moment, Huang Chong emerged from the shadows, hugged the somewhat frightened Xiao Ye, and said, "The only way to get Dr. Li out of the building is for Jimmy to speak. Our words are useless. Ever since that medicine was completed, Dr. Li has been living and eating in the building almost every day, and Jimmy is always with him when he goes out. Even we can't be alone with Dr. Li."
"Is that so?" Chen Xu smiled, bent down to take out Jimmy's phone, gestured for a soldier to gag Jimmy, and then dialed Dr. Li's number.
At that moment, Jimmy heard an unbelievable voice. It was his own voice!
Chen Xu didn't use any voice-changing techniques; he simply spoke into the phone in his own voice, "Dr. Li? Could you come downstairs now? I'll be waiting for you at the door. It's urgent."
Jimmy stared at Chen Xu as if he'd seen a ghost. He... he could actually create his own voice without using any equipment?!
How is that possible?! Actually, Chen Xu used a voice changer. That voice changer was Xiao Min, but Xiao Min's function was directly attached to Chen Xu! It allowed Chen Xu's accent to be transformed into anyone's voice!
Chen Xu's transformation into Huang Chong was also because of Xiao Min!
Xiao Min created a special electromagnetic wave around Chen Xu. That electromagnetic wave could affect people's vision, allowing them to see human figures simulated by the electromagnetic wave!
This image may differ somewhat from the real person, but in the pitch black of night, who could possibly see it?!
This is the second level of authority, the brand new skill that Xiaomin granted... Mimicry!
A crucial concealment tactic in future high-tech warfare!
The special forces soldiers were also surprised to see Chen Xu able to mimic Jimmy's voice without any tools. They hadn't seen Chen Xu transform into Huang Chong, and Huang Chong and his group naturally wouldn't make things up. The special forces soldier with the missing ear, codenamed "Wolf Fang," exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, you can simulate other people's voices?!"
