Chapter 24

~5 min read 813 words

"Hoo—hoo—" The wind suddenly picked up, like a sharp sword dancing in the night sky, blowing the pedestrians' hair and causing their skirts to sway.

Looking at the target person who was completely unaware, A-Train couldn't help but feel some contempt.

A few minutes ago, under Homelander's instructions, he had discovered this man and followed him the whole way with super speed, observing him clearly!

He didn't understand why Homelander wanted him to monitor this Asian man who looked plain and had nothing special about him.

However, he didn't dare to refuse, and he couldn't refuse!

The incident of hitting and killing someone had caused his popularity to decline. Although the company helped clean up the aftermath, they were very dissatisfied with the impact he had caused, and it seemed they intended to have another speedster, 'Shockwave,' replace him, which was something he absolutely couldn't accept.

Homelander promised him that as long as he monitored this Asian man and investigated his situation clearly, he would pressure the company to support him in staying in The Seven.

Looking at the oblivious target, A-Train felt this was a sure thing!

"God is fair. If He gave you an ugly appearance, He must have given you a low IQ, so as not to make you look uncoordinated!"

Su Quan continued to pretend that the self-satisfied A-Train didn't exist, using his super hearing to search for someone's location.

Half an hour later, the bored A-Train's expression gradually became a bit strange.

This was the neighborhood where his girlfriend lived!

"What is he doing here so late? Does he live in this neighborhood too? Fuck—how did he get into my girlfriend's apartment!"

Watching the other party enter the apartment with clear intent, the vaguely uneasy A-Train cursed under his breath and followed.

A lot of people lived in this apartment building; it shouldn't be—

What the fuck!!!

A-Train looked at the figure standing in front of his girlfriend's door knocking, and he was completely stunned.

He, he actually came to find my girlfriend?!

Finding this place from so far away so late with such a clear goal, if you said he didn't know his girlfriend, even a ghost wouldn't believe it.

Damn it, could Popclaw be behind my back—

Anger instantly surged into his heart. A-Train was just about to make this pair of dogs pay the price, but suddenly discovered that the other party had turned his head and revealed a mocking smile at him.

"Surprised? Unexpected?"

"You—" A-Train's expression was stunned, his eyes widened. What, what did he mean by this? Could it be that he had discovered me long ago?

Impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

My speed is so fast, it's impossible for him to have discovered me. If he had discovered me long ago, why only now—

"Who is it?"

The woman's voice came from the room.

Then, the door opened.

The moment the door opened, A-Train discovered in horror that the man's mocking smile had magnified countless times; he—he had actually arrived in front of him in an instant!

"Bang!"

A-Train, who didn't have time to react, only felt himself briefly suspended in the air, and then he fell into his girlfriend Popclaw's living room.

His neck felt a slight pain, and he realized belatedly that the other party must have pinched his neck and thrown him from the hallway into the living room.

How did he do it?

Is he also a speedster?

His speed, actually faster than mine?!

A-Train's first reaction was that it was impossible. There couldn't be a speedster he didn't know, and there couldn't be a speedster faster than him!

"Who are you?"

"A-Train? You—what happened to you? Are you okay?"

A short-haired woman in casual clothes first looked at the suddenly appearing Su Quan in shock, then discovered A-Train lying on the ground, and hurriedly ran over in surprise, wanting to help him up.

A-Train didn't even look at her, pushed her hand away, stood up himself, and stared straight at Su Quan.

"Are you also a speedster?"

"Running around and showing off by my side the whole way, you don't really think I didn't notice, do you? No way, no way, you really think you can track someone whom even Homelander doesn't dare to track personally without anyone knowing?"

You don't need to ask to know that A-Train tracking him must have been Homelander's arrangement.

Don't look at how Homelander acts like a mouse seeing a cat when he sees him; you can think with your heels that he definitely wouldn't just accept it like this. He would definitely take action, at least to figure out his identity and background.

A-Train's face, which was already as black as charcoal, turned even blacker. The other party's mockery made him realize that he might have been set up by Homelander.

"Do you have a grudge against Homelander?" Su Quan asked.
