Chereads / "The Superman Club" / Chapter 32 - Chapter 32: Playing a Role

Chapter 32 - Chapter 32: Playing a Role

Lin Xian walked towards the west side of the square, where cc's spawn point was.

Before long, Lin Xian found the target—

A woman wearing a black tight-fitting bodysuit, draped in a checkered trench coat, with deep brown hair piled high on her head, and an Ultraman mask covering her face.

It was cc.

When Lin Xian saw cc in the bank vault earlier, she was only wearing a black bodysuit, resembling a spy.

Presumably, she thought the spy outfit was too conspicuous, so she wore a long trench coat to blend in with the crowd when they met on the square.

Her long hair tied up with a red ribbon at the back of her head, round and plump, with an enviable volume.

But in reality... there was a gun hidden inside.

She had two guns in total.

One at her waist and another hidden in her piled-up hair.

"What a dangerous woman."

As Lin Xian approached cc, he scrutinized her figure.

Slender, very slim, about 165cm tall.

It was strange...

There was no sense of familiarity, no impression at all.

Had he really seen this person before?

This feeling was contradictory.

He was sure that he had heard cc's voice in reality.

But it was hard to imagine that a girl with such a model-like figure would leave no impression at all if he had really seen her before.

"Never mind, don't think too much about it."

Lin Xian walked straight towards cc.

Whether she was human or ghost, everything would be revealed when he removed her mask!

"Hey."

Lin Xian greeted cc as he approached her from behind, watching her turn around:

"Password expert?"

Cc looked Lin Xian up and down without speaking.

After a while, she nodded slightly, "How should I address you?"

Lin Xian smiled faintly, "People on the street call me Big Faced Cat, you can call me Lian-ge."

With that, he pointed to the van parked on the side of the road, "The car is over there, follow me."

Then he turned and walked back—

Slap!

A fair hand firmly pressed Lin Xian's shoulder, rendering him immobile.

"You're called Big Faced Cat?"

"Yes." Lin Xian didn't look back.

"People on the street call you Big Faced Cat?"

"Yes."

Cc stared at Lin Xian, "But your face isn't big at all. Why do people call you Big Faced Cat?"

...

...

A hot summer breeze blew past, lifting the red ribbon on cc's head and the corner of her trench coat.

Neither of them spoke.

But the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

Lin Xian suddenly realized... he had oversimplified the matter of "impersonating Big Faced Cat".

This was not something a mere mask could solve at all.

Being able to deceive Big Faced Cat with an Ultraman mask was because Big Faced Cat was stupid, not because of the mask itself.

Cc, on the other hand, was much smarter, with at least 800 more tricks up her sleeve than Big Faced Cat.

Even though she didn't know what Big Faced Cat looked like, his name, or his voice... she could still intuitively sense that Lin Xian didn't seem like a fugitive, let alone someone who would rob a bank.

But fortunately, cc only had suspicions about him for now and hadn't fully exposed him.

There was still time to salvage the situation.

...

Lin Xian stood upright and turned around slowly.

Cc's right hand was still on Lin Xian's shoulder, while her left hand reached for the gun at her waist...

"Do you have to have a big face to be called Big Faced Cat?" Lin Xian stared at cc.

"And what if?" Cc stared back at Lin Xian.

"What's your name?"

"Cc."

"According to your logic, shouldn't you be called 'Aa' instead of 'Cc'?"

Slap!

Lin Xian shrugged off the hand on his shoulder without giving her a chance to argue, then walked towards the van:

"Love to come or not! Even without you, with C4 leading the way, the robbery will proceed as planned."

Lin Xian got into the driver's seat, closed the door, shifted gears, and accelerated!

Vroom—

"Wait!"

Cc hurried over and opened the passenger door, then got in.

She crossed her arms and remained silent, evidently dissatisfied.

Lin Xian opened his right hand, "Give me the gun."

"What will you use if I give it to you?" Cc sneered.

"You can use the one in your hair."

Cc widened her eyes at Lin Xian.

In the end...

She handed the gun on her waist to Lin Xian.

Then she untied the red ribbon binding her hair...

Swish.

Smooth long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and a black gun appeared in cc's hand.

She bit the red ribbon with her lips, clasped her hands around the hair, and then re-tied it with the ribbon.

Lin Xian watched quietly...

So that was the purpose of tying hair with a ribbon instead of an elastic band? It came off with just a tug, no wonder Big Faced Cat's head was blown off instantly last time.

Lin Xian picked up the gun.

With practiced skill, he unloaded the magazine, checked the bullet count, reloaded, cocked, and holstered it in his waist, all in less than a second.

Then he looked ahead and started driving.

No words were exchanged on the surface.

But inwardly, Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it seemed like he had managed to bluff his way through. So far, the plan was going smoothly.

Lin Xian's greatest advantage lay in his ability to try countless times, experiment countless times, and fail countless times in the dream world.

This repeated exploration and experimentation would allow him to accumulate almost omniscient intelligence about the situation.

Thinking back to the first encounter with Big Faced Cat and cc, he was completely manipulated by them, and anyone could have shot him easily.

But after three or four cycles of exploration... he had become intimately familiar with every detail of the events.

With a huge information gap, he could manipulate anyone.

The situation just now was indeed somewhat different from what Lin Xian had planned. He hadn't expected cc to suspect him as Big Faced Cat at first sight.

But it wasn't a big deal.

With his swift actions, he not only passed off as planned but also obtained the crucial item he needed the most—

A gun.

If he didn't have a gun, he wouldn't know how to get past the three underlings.

...

They traveled in silence.

Ultraman and Lein Cat stared straight ahead without turning their heads...

I wonder what passersby would think when they saw this eerie van.

Before long, they arrived at their destination.

Lin Xian took out the gun from his waist, gesturing for cc to get out of the car:

"Follow me, and bring your laptop."

After getting out of the car.

Lin Xian and cc hurriedly walked towards the bank entrance.

A black-clad henchman tinkered at the entrance, looking up at Lin Xian with a puzzled expression, "You—"

Bang!!

A bullet hit him squarely between the eyes! Blood splattered on the wall!

"Nice shooting," cc exclaimed.

She had just carefully observed, and the gun draw and shooting were completed in an instant, without any aiming motion.

Many people could shoot the target if it was just about hitting it.

But this was a headshot, right between the eyes, without any unnecessary aiming...

It could only be described as a marksman.

"But why did you kill your henchman?" Cc asked.

Lin Xian pushed open the door and entered the bank directly:

"He's dirty, can't keep someone like that around."

As they turned the corner.

A masked man stood up in shock, pointing at Lin Xian, "You—"

Bang!!

Another instant headshot, perfectly precise!

"Why did you kill this one?" Cc asked.

"He was hitting on the boss's wife, should I let him live?"

Cc looked at Lin Xian in shock, "He, he made you wear a green hat?"

"Uh... oh, we have a common boss above us, I'm talking about that boss's wife."

As they continued forward, a figure emerged from an underground passage—

Bang!!

Cc couldn't help but take a step back...

Being able to make an instant headshot while running, moving so fast, and in complete darkness!

She touched her gun and followed Lin Xian:

"How did you train your marksmanship?"

"Practice makes perfect."

Lin Xian pointed to the pitch-black wall ahead and the silver-coded password door in the middle:

"It's your turn to shine, password expert."
