A Wizard's Survival Guide to the 20th Century

Jack turned around and saw a young man standing behind him. He had distinctive black hair and an oriental face.

"What a bad taste." The man said lightly.

Jack frowned: "What does this have to do with you?"

"It's a big deal. I have to worry about my salary." Levi shook his head and turned over his hand to show his ID card.

"FBI, come with us."

FBI? When they came, Jack was surprised at first, and then understood instantly.

Since there are people with super powers like me in the world, then the country will definitely have corresponding regulators!

It must have been the things I did before that caught their attention. Damn it, I actually forgot about it!

As his thoughts turned around, Jack gritted his teeth and shook off the man's hand.

What you do is definitely not legal. Once it falls into the hands of the Investigation Bureau, there will definitely be no good results!

However, as soon as he moved, Levi seemed to be prepared beforehand. A bottle of paralyzing agent appeared in his right hand and he waved it over.

There was a crisp sound, the glass bottle exploded, and the sparkling liquid inside splashed onto Jack. The latter's consciousness darkened, his limbs suddenly became numb, and he fell forward with a bang and fell to the ground along with the inertia.

"I advise you not to resist." Levi lowered his head and said calmly.

As he expected, this guy really just wanted to pull a low-interest prank.

In this case, even if he is arrested, he will not be dealt with too harshly.

"If you confess, you will be given leniency, if you refuse, you will be given strict punishment. You have never hurt anyone before. As long as you surrender obediently, we will not make things difficult for you."

With that said, Levi took out the "collar" that could suppress witchcraft from the space and walked over.

Jack on the ground seemed to understand what he said, and after struggling for a few times, he stopped.

Done and call it a day...

However, just as Levi came up with this idea, he suddenly felt a pulling force coming from behind. It was Miss Field who suddenly grabbed his back collar. Levi couldn't help but stumbled and took a few steps back.

Before he could react, he heard the sharp sound of breaking through the air coming from top to bottom.

With a bang, a huge billboard hit between Levi and Jack, instantly raising dust and separating the two on both sides!

The next moment, Jack's fearful voice came over.

"I won't believe you!"

"I know what you will do after you take me away! You... don't even think about it!"

Levi frowned and walked around quickly, but Jack, who was originally lying on the ground, had gone somewhere!

Oops, things are getting serious... He screamed in his heart that something was wrong, why did this damn thing fall down at this time.

The falling billboard attracted the attention of passers-by, and their eyes quickly came over.

"Catch up!" Field shouted.

Levi nodded, and after informing everyone that they were federal agents, he followed Field to squeeze through the onlookers and hurried in the direction where Jack disappeared.

"Reese is chasing him, following the Magic Eye."

Field said calmly, and then Levi realized that the eye that had left before had floated back and was leading the way in front of them.

Following the direction of their eyes, the two rushed into the intricate residential area of ​​Redwood. After turning three corners, Jack's figure appeared in sight again.

"Stop! Otherwise we will shoot!" Field threatened loudly and fired a shot into the air.

The sudden gunshot startled Jack who was panicking. He lost his footing and kicked a stone and fell to the ground.

The two of them were overjoyed, but Levi immediately noticed that although Jack was panicked, he didn't seem to have any intention of being captured. He shiveringly put his hand into his pants pocket and took out a star similar to his own. The coin is somewhat similar to the coin, but is scaled down several times.

The former suddenly became alert. Could it be that he used this thing to summon the billboard?

Field obviously noticed his changes. She gritted her teeth and her speed suddenly increased. But just when they were about to rush to Jack's side, a black uncle suddenly walked out of the side alley pushing a large cart of watermelons.

The watermelon truck accurately forced the two of them to a stop, and taking advantage of this gap, Jack stumbled up and quickly ran away.

Levi, who was blocked behind the car, took two steps back, ignored Uncle Hei's blank eyes, and turned his head to meet Field's eyes.

"It might be a coincidence once." Levi said solemnly, "But it's different twice."

Of course Field understood what he was talking about. She paused and said, "I seemed to have seen the coin in his hand evaporate just now."

"This is his witchcraft." Levi concluded, then looked at the floating eyes.

"Let the team leader and Martha help us, be careful, he may have the ability to improve his luck or create events that are beneficial to him!"

……

After half an hour.

Jack ran out of breath into an unknown alley.

He himself had not exercised much, and the sudden amount of exercise almost killed him, but he only managed to survive with a wishing coin.

After holding on to the wall and taking a few breaths, he looked back and saw that the two investigators didn't seem to be following him. It seemed that he had either lost track or given up.

Jack couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He dug into his pocket with his right hand and took out a pile of coins. He counted them and found that there were only eight coins left in total.

Jack sighed. Except for the two that caused the billboard to fall, the remaining ones were completely consumed. He felt his heart bleed every time he used one.

But he couldn't help it. Jack had seen things about BOI in newspapers and commentators' editorials. This organization was a secret service like the Intelligence Bureau. It was said that they would torture suspects. If anyone dares to resist, they will first torture the person into a psychotic state and then send him to the Elizabeth Mental Hospital.

Jack swallowed. He finally had superpowers. As long as he saved enough wishing coins, he could even become a little rich man.

He definitely didn't want to be sent to a mental hospital.

After resting for a while, Jack looked around. He didn't know where this place was. After all, he had only been in Redwood for a few days.

The road is messy, like a maze. Tin houses can be seen everywhere, with clothes hanging to dry in the corridors between the houses. It looks like a place where ordinary people live.

After scratching his head, Jack chose a random path. After thinking about it, he changed his clothes with the wishing coins and then walked slowly over.

He wants to leave here first and go to other cities. Now that he has been discovered, Redwood is no longer safe and cannot stay no matter how good the conditions here are.

It's just a pity that I have such a genius plan...

With this in mind, Jack walked not far along that road. However, just as he was about to leave the residential area, he saw a little girl wearing a white shirt one size too big sitting on the ground crying.

Ok?

Jack was stunned and looked around, but there was no one around.

Whose child is this, lost?

It often happens in Phoenix that children can't find their homes while running around, and in the end parents can only seek help from the "Children's Gang".

I'm afraid this little girl is in the same situation... Jack thought for a while, and he definitely couldn't take care of others in his current situation.

But...he looked at the little girl on the ground.

The skin is a bit dark, seems to be a Rafi or a Felipe?

Wearing a white shirt one size too big, the clothes were drooping, making her look even more delicate.

He was burying his head and wiping away tears, which made people feel pity.

Jack swallowed his breath, but in the end he couldn't bear to be cruel.

He walked over slowly, leaned down, and tried to make his dry voice sound gentle.

"Hello, what are you doing here?"

The little girl raised her head and looked at Jack timidly with tears in her eyes. Then she tilted her head and thought for a while, then reached out and grabbed Jack's clothes.

The latter's heart suddenly suffered a critical blow from the cute creature in front of him, and a desire for protection arose spontaneously.

Yes, even though I am running for my life now, I can still send her home without any delay...

Just as Jack was thinking this, he suddenly heard the little girl speak.

"Team leader and the others asked me to be like this and catch you here." She wiped her tears with her other hand, smiled sheepishly and said, "Are you Mr. Jack Gill?"

Jack's smile froze on his face.

What is she saying? catch me? No, no, no...how does she know my name!

Immediately afterwards, Jack saw the little girl fumble for an ID from the pocket of her one-size-fits-all jacket.

"I am Investigator Miramont from the BOI. Please leave me alone, sir."
