“Ah, she’s told you, hasn’t she?” Zhushi Jiu’s expression was melancholic, and the aura of indifference on his face made his words sound extremely genuine.
The man wanted to laugh, but his rational thinking told him that this young man wouldn’t be making idle chatter in this situation. Either he was deceiving them with lies, or he was telling the truth as he believed it.

“What did she tell you?” Zhushi Jiu asked with a desperate tone.
The middle-aged man replied, “Everything.”
“Ha ha ha ha…” Zhushi Jiu’s laughter was desolate. “I know, she’s just an ordinary person, so it’s only natural that she couldn’t withstand your interrogation methods. The outcome is to be expected.”
The middle-aged man sneered, “But I’m suspicious. Why did you lie to her, saying you could predict the future?”
Zhushi Jiu’s tone was pitiful, “Is it possible that I wasn’t lying to her? I poured my heart out to her, and every word I said was true.”
He was still acting.
“This is unnatural,” the middle-aged man countered, “You only knew her for a day, and before that, you had no connection with her. Do you think I’ll just believe whatever you say?”
Zhushi Jiu shook his head and asked, “Is it impossible that there are other superpowered beings in this world?”
The middle-aged man’s response was, “If you want to try the taste of electroshock again, I can let you experience it once more. Stop spewing nonsense.”
Zhushi Jiu knew then.

The World Enemy was not a superpowered being.
After the previous cycle ended, Zhushi Jiu had been thinking nonstop about the World Enemy that could trigger such a massive energy explosion. He had proposed numerous theories.
For example, a human organization that developed super-scale weapons.
Or aliens from outer space.
Or a superpowered being with the ability to destroy the world.
Or a high-dimensional being that exceeded human understanding.
Or a transmigrator from a novel.
…He thought of many possibilities, with the top three being the most likely. Especially the third possibility, the superpowered being. As a time-traveler himself, he wondered if the World Enemy was also a superpowered being.
However, the middle-aged man’s zero acceptance of the “predicting the future” ability showed that he didn’t believe in the existence of superpowered beings in this world.
So Zhushi Jiu had to shift his focus to the other two possibilities. Was the World Enemy a human terrorist organization or an alien?
Although he thought of many possibilities, Zhushi Jiu’s surface expression remained calm, and he provided a logical explanation.
“If you don’t believe my ‘nonsense,’ why bother asking me? The reason I fell in love with Du Fei is not because I had a crush on her at first sight, but because I’ve loved her countless times in the futures I’ve seen. I loved her not just for who she is now, but for all the possibilities she may become.”
The middle-aged man began to seriously consider this possibility.
He had witnessed the World Enemy’s abilities, so he had a certain degree of acceptance for things that exceeded human scientific understanding. Although Zhushi Jiu’s words were absurd, he started to think along Zhushi Jiu’s train of thought.
Not because he believed Zhushi Jiu, but because he wanted to find the loopholes in Zhushi Jiu’s words.
“So, your meaning is that you predicted the future and fell in love with her, and also saw the world’s demise tomorrow?”
“Yes,” Zhushi Jiu replied, his dialogue gradually getting back on track, and his pretenses slightly dropping. “A blue energy explosion will be born in the sky above Jiang City, destroying everything in sight. It’s not like the most advanced human technology; it’s a super-scale weapon that can destroy at least half a continent.”

If you’re really an official organization, please change the ending. I’m sincere.
The middle-aged man’s expression turned grave.
The words “sky above Jiang City” uttered by this young man made him very suspicious. Because in their upcoming action, they would be launching a probing attack on the World Enemy above Jiang City.
Because the World Enemy was right there.
In the high sky above Jiang City.
This was information that only a few people and organizations knew, yet Zhushi Jiu had casually mentioned it.
Moreover, his description hinted at the outcome of their action tomorrow: the probing attack would fail, and the World Enemy would launch an energy explosion, destroying humanity.
In comparison, Zhushi Jiu’s love for Du Fei was a minor issue.
“Is your organization a conservative faction?” the middle-aged man suddenly asked.
Zhushi Jiu’s brain went into overdrive, and his mouth asked stupidly, “What do you mean?”
“Your organization doesn’t agree with our ideology, so you’re pretending to be a fake superpowered being who can predict the future, trying to mislead us into giving up our action tomorrow.”
The middle-aged man spoke as if stating a fact.
“Have you ever thought that you’re being used as a pawn?”
“I refuse, our organization will never abandon me! Because I can predict the future, I can save the world…”
Zhushi Jiu’s words were extremely passionate.
The middle-aged man cut off Zhushi Jiu’s words, “If you really can predict the future, why did you take a video of winning 120 lottery tickets in a row at the lottery shop and upload it online?”
“Why did you voluntarily jump into the trap, didn’t you predict being caught by us?”
He grasped a fatal flaw.
That was the “predicting the future” Zhushi Jiu, who not only exposed his ability recklessly but also got himself into an unrecoverable situation.

If Zhushi Jiu didn’t explain this point clearly, it would be pointless to say more.
Zhushi Jiu had an explanation for this: “You think an ordinary university student like me ended up in this situation? The ones who first discovered my superpower were their members.”
“They, like you, didn’t believe in my predicting the future ability, so to prove it, I won 120 lottery tickets in a row at the lottery shop.”
“You ask me why I voluntarily jumped into the trap…”
Zhushi Jiu sighed bitterly.
“Can you imagine my despair?”
“I can only see the world being destroyed every time I predict the future. Only by personally getting involved can I have a glimmer of hope.”
Zhushi Jiu’s tone sounded extremely regretful and unwilling, which were genuine emotions, without any need to worry about being fake.
Even if you had extraordinary observational skills, could you tell what’s real from what’s fake?
