Chapter 526: Too showy, too arrogant! (First update, please subscribe!)
"Come on, inside is the underground organization's base. With Su Quan here, and with us here, you never have to worry about being caught by the Sentinel Services again."
Sonya smiled and reached out her hand.
Little Dominique looked up at her mother, and seeing her mother's encouraging nod, she smiled and grabbed Sonya's hand.
Big hand holding little hand.
This scene was very heartwarming.
Sonya sent Dominique and Sheila to the other side of the portal and handed them over to Sage and John.
Dominique held her mother's hand and waved her other hand to say goodbye to them.
In fact, there was no parting at all, but they felt the little one's heart.
"May you no longer wander." Su Quan responded with a smile.
If the heart has no place to rest, everywhere is wandering.
Sheila was also smiling, a smile of gratitude.
Behind some smiles were souls gritting their teeth. Hopefully, the safe environment of the underground organization's base could transfer away her pain.
The portal closed, and the storeroom fell back into a slightly gloomy darkness.
Sonya took a deep breath and asked Su Quan with a faint smile: "Want to have a drink?"
Su Quan asked back indifferently: "Are you treating?"
Sonya said "I'm treating" speechlessly, and the three walked out of the storeroom.
The bar wasn't big, with a few scattered tables, all empty at the moment.
In front of the long bar, two middle-aged men dressed as truck drivers were drinking and bragging. Their voices weren't loud, making the bar seem even more deserted.
Su Quan and Sonya sat down in a corner. Tex brought over a few bottles of beer and then dutifully returned to the bar to continue playing his role as the bar owner.
"Clink!"
Bottles clinked, and they took a light sip.
Sonya asked: "You aren't planning to go for a stroll? Where are you going?"
"First to the Sentinel Services, then to the mall."
Sonya raised an eyebrow: "Sentinel Services? You aren't going to exchange for the bounty, are you?"
Su Quan shrugged, drinking his beer leisurely, without any of the tension of someone about to do something big.
Su Quan had just rescued Lorna and crushed the Sentinel Services' dragnet, making them lose face and suffer heavy losses.
Turning around, he went to the Sentinel Services as a wanted criminal to exchange his own information for a bounty.
This operation was too showy.
It was too much of a slap in the face!
Sonya looked at Su Quan, wanting to say something but stopping. She didn't want Su Quan to provoke the Sentinel Services so blatantly.
It was too arrogant!
Doing this, besides making him a thorn in the side of the Sentinel Services, had no benefits at all.
Yes, the organization lacked money, and the bounty amount was high, but you had to be able to get it.
As soon as you show up, they'll shout to catch you; how could they possibly give you a bounty!
"Alright, since you insist, then... what can I do?"
Sonya's idea was simple: since I can't stop you, I'll just go with you.
"People in this world are in a rush, just for a few pieces of silver, yet these few pieces of silver can solve ten thousand kinds of melancholy in the world."
"The rich are mostly unkind, and the poor are driven to evil."
Su Quan drank the beer in the bottle in one gulp and stood up with a smile: "What you need to do is wait, wait for me to come back."
Sonya opened her mouth, but finally drank her beer helplessly.
Su Quan had already left.
Sentinel Services, office building.
People were coming and going, each busy with their own tasks.
"Who are you?"
As soon as Su Quan appeared, he encountered an agent's interrogation.
As a result, before he could answer, the agent had already recognized his identity and shouted sharply.
"It's you!"
"Su Quan, you actually dare to come here!!!"
The people around heard his shout and heard Su Quan's name, and immediately reacted to what was happening.
Su Quan, the mutant who rescued Polaris and caused them heavy losses, actually dared to come to their Sentinel Services headquarters!
Too arrogant!
Too brazen!
This was completely disregarding their Sentinel Services!
Burning with anger, furious!
The people around pulled out their guns and pointed them at Su Quan at the first opportunity. Immediately after, the doors closed and locked, and a piercing alarm sounded throughout the building.
Before long, the sound of footsteps rang out.
A full squad of agents arrived, fully armed, replacing the non-combat personnel, and surrounded Su Quan in three layers inside and three layers outside.
A middle-aged man in a suit sized up the surrounded Su Quan with interest and asked the person beside him unhurriedly.
"Is he that Su Quan?"
"It's him."
The Sentinel Services agent in charge of reception gritted his teeth and said with a look of resentment: "Dr. Campbell, you see it too, he's really too arrogant."
Dr. Campbell nodded and said with a smile: "He is a bit arrogant, but he does have the qualifications to be arrogant."
Su Quan's battle record was solid; with just one person and just one type of ability, he had broken through the Sentinel Services' dragnet.
Now he had also shown teleportation or portal-type abilities.
He did indeed have the qualifications to be arrogant.
"Dr. Campbell..." the person in charge of reception stopped mid-sentence, his eyes darting toward the man behind Dr. Campbell.
This man, dressed exactly like a Sentinel Services agent, was a tamed mutant.
He had an ability that could release invisible pulse waves, which could suppress mutant abilities, disrupt system programs, turn off electronic equipment, and so on.
Dr. Campbell was a partner of the Sentinel Services. He brought Pulse here to use Pulse's ability to capture Su Quan.
He didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that Su Quan would deliver himself to their door.
"Send someone who can make decisions to talk to me."
In a situation where he couldn't fly away, Su Quan showed no panic at all and directly called for someone to talk to him.
"I'll do it."
Dr. Campbell brought Pulse over, and the Sentinel Services agents gave way one after another.
Arriving inside the encirclement, eyes meeting, Dr. Campbell introduced himself: "My name is Roderick Campbell. You can tell me whatever you have to say."
Su Quan raised an eyebrow, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned. He didn't expect to see Dr. Campbell here.
The founder of the Hound Program, should he take this opportunity to kill him?
Su Quan was tempted, but after a second thought, he dismissed the idea.
Dr. Campbell was just an ordinary person without any abilities; he could kill him whenever he wanted, it was just a matter of a thought.
Killing him now would definitely throw the Hound Program into chaos, and those imprisoned Hound mutants would likely not have a good ending.
Moreover, although Dr. Campbell was the founder and leader of the Hound Program, this didn't mean the Hound Program would end if he died.
Rather than having a stranger take over, it was better to let Dr. Campbell, whom he was familiar with, continue to lead it.
Additionally, Su Quan wasn't interested in the Hound Program, but he was very interested in the mutant ability integration technology.
This technology required Dr. Campbell's clever brain to realize!
