My avatar is becoming the final boss

Chapter 12 Private Meeting
After the pupa man left, the air pressure in the entire Lijing Square seemed to rise a lot.

Blue Arc said to Green Wing, "I suggest you surrender. Your five accomplices hiding on the roof have been subdued by my teammates. The detonators they had are useless. The area is full of members of the Deviants Association. You can't escape."

"But the hostages... the hostages are still with me." Green Wing took a few steps back and approached the hostages.

"Take a closer look," Blue Arc said calmly.

Hearing this, Green Wing shuddered and turned his head suddenly, only to see that the five hostages had disappeared without a trace, and the onlookers in the square were evacuated without their knowledge, and were replaced by a group of people in strange costumes.

“Damn it…”

Green Wing was about to say something, but he found that Blue Arc's attention was completely not on him. His eyes under the helmet were staring at the direction where the insect pupa man left from beginning to end.

The next moment, Lan Hu's figure turned into a beam of deep blue lightning and disappeared.

The LED screen went out for a second, and then started working again after the arc lingering in the air dissipated.

A minute later, on a secluded path near Lijing Square.

"I knew you would follow, Mr. Blue Arc."

A black insect pupa hung upside down under a street lamp. The light was dim and yellow. The pupa shell slowly opened, revealing a slender human figure. At this time, Ji Minghuan, wearing a mask, was looking down and reading an old newspaper.

He looked focused, holding a ballpoint pen in his right hand, turning the pen from time to time, looking like a sophisticated scholar.

"What is your origin?" asked Blue Arc.

"I don't have a code name or a name yet, but I'm sure I'll have one soon... That's the charm of being a public figure. If people like you, or are afraid of you, they'll always give you all kinds of nicknames."

The pupa man talked to himself and turned to the next page of the newspaper.

The newspaper was quite a few years old, and it recorded a tragic accident that happened five years ago: a mother named "Su Ying" was accidentally killed by the Association of Aliens. The poor man filed lawsuits with the government many times but to no avail. He couldn't even find out who had killed his wife by mistake, because the Alien was from "Rainbow Wing" and his identity was kept strictly confidential.

Only then did Blue Arc notice the news pictures in the newspaper, and his face under the mask twitched slightly.

"Mr. Gu Qiye, you were only thirteen when it happened... Right before your eyes, your mother went 'bang!'" The pupa man said this, deliberately lengthening the onomatopoeia. He then spread his hands and continued, "She was blown into a pile of minced meat. It's such a pity. A childhood without a mother's love is incomplete. I sympathize with your experience more than anyone else."

"Of course... I also lacked maternal love in my childhood." Ji Minghuan teased in his heart under the mask.

Blue Arc remained silent the entire time, not even questioning why this strange man in front of him knew all these things.

Seeing that he remained silent, the pupa man continued, "Since that day, you have harbored resentment towards those 'outsiders' who abuse their power in the name of justice."

He paused. "That's exactly why you became a 'Deviant'. You want to gain enough prestige within the Deviant Association, rely on your unparalleled performance to be recommended by higher-ups, and then enter the United Nations organization 'Rainbow Wing' and find the Deviant who crushed your mother like an ant."

"A bunch of nonsense."

Lan Hu took a deep breath, the rage in his eyes threatening to burst forth. "Is what I said truly nonsense? You know this best," the pupa man scoffed.

"and then?"

"And then? Then I showed up."

The pupa man closed the newspaper as he spoke, tossing it into a trash can on the corner. He raised his eyes from behind his mask and looked up at Blue Arc with his vision hanging upside down. "I'm here to help you, Mr. Blue Arc. Let's work together. I'll help you join Rainbow Wing and work with you to find the alien who accidentally killed your mother, and then we'll take glorious revenge on him."

At this point, he raised a finger wrapped in a black leather glove and said, "And you, just need to help me with one thing... a trivial matter."

"what's up?"

The pupa man thought for a moment, then shook his head. "For now, it's best to keep this a secret from you. Otherwise, it might very well bring you fatal disaster..." He sighed. "Anyway, I'll be active in this city for the next few days, which means we might run into each other often. Please keep me in mind."

"You, why do you know my identity?"

Gu Qiye, hidden under the mask, finally raised a crucial question.

"The reason is simple..." the pupa man said casually, "I know what's underneath everyone's mask."

"absurd."

"Aren't you curious? What on earth has your father been doing out there these past two years? Did he really just have a fight with you and doesn't want to see you anymore? Or maybe... your father actually has other plans in mind, and to avoid involving you and your siblings, he had no choice but to run away."

Blue Arc was stunned: "My father?"

"That's right, regarding the Gu Zhuo case, is he hiding some unknown secret like you..." the pupa man said quietly, "Think carefully, is your father really such a coward? How could he be so cowardly as to hide from his own children for two years? Was there some reason that compelled him to do so, just like how you joined the Deviants' Association to uncover the truth about your mother's death?"

He paused. “If you want to know these things, just work with me. I never treat my collaborators unfairly.”

Blue Arc croaked, "What on earth are you..."

The pupa man interrupted him, "Oh... Although you're wearing a helmet and I can't see your expression, I can imagine that you must be madly in love with me..." He looked away, "Well, from now on, we can build our graves closer, so that it will be easier for me to steal your tributes."

"Shut up. What the hell are you…"

"No, no, no, stop worrying about who I am or why I know your details. It's all meaningless," the pupa man said jokingly. "You should be more worried about your own situation right now, right?"

As he spoke, his body was gradually pulled upward by the restraints, and he sat on top of the streetlight. "Goodbye, Blue Arc. Your waist and neck injuries are so severe, please don't chase me anymore... If you delay any longer, I'm afraid your life will be in danger, otherwise you would have attacked me long ago. Actually, sometimes asking for help is not such a shameful thing. I hope you will be smart."

As he finished speaking, a series of restraints appeared from behind him, dancing gently in the dim light, as if saying goodbye.

Before Lan Qi could speak, the figure of the insect pupa man fell backwards, plummeting from above the street lamp to the ground and disappearing into the endless darkness.
