Chapter 1108 1106: Fear and Despair
Zhang Dagang raised the mineral water bottle and brought it to his eyes for a closer inspection.
Eight people, two salesgirls, Lin Lu, Yan Ling, making five people, it seems, and four customers.
Zhang Dagang counted them one by one.
He found that out of the four customers, one was missing.
There were only three customers.
Two men and one woman.
Among them, two seemed to be a couple.
And the other was a burly man.
However, no matter how burly, he had now shrunk to just a few centimeters in size.
Directly placed in the mineral water bottle.
And to the people inside the bottle,
the mineral water bottle seemed even larger than a house.
They were pounding on the bottle with force.
Even using small knives they carried to stab it.
But none of it could cause any damage to the bottle.
The mineral water bottle was very durable.
If you don't have tools, trying to damage it with bare hands,
even at normal size, is impossible.
Not to mention now that their body sizes had shrunk thousands of times.
And their strength had also diminished by thousands of times.
A mineral water bottle was something they simply couldn't damage.
And when Zhang Dagang looked at them,
his eyes seemed as large as millstones.
It looked quite terrifying.
This kind of thing was the first experience for everyone.
After all, if not experienced firsthand,
who would believe they would actually be shrunk?
Zhang Dagang furrowed his brows.
He kept searching for the missing person.
He wasn't stupid; upon entering the jewelry store, he had already disabled the shop's surveillance system.
And then blocked the door with a tank.
Which meant,
no one except the people in the shop knew he had superpowers.
After all, the fact that he had superpowers,
was absolutely not to be disclosed to anyone.
Therefore, he shrank everyone.
Although Lin Lu was his target this time,
the other women weren't bad either.
They were like added bonuses.
As for the men, he wouldn't let them leave alive.
The reason he hadn't killed them immediately,
was that he still needed a few servants.
But now one person was missing.
He had to find them quickly.
Or else if they got away,
someone might discover his secret.
Although his superpower was strong,
he was still just one man.
Going against the whole world?
That's nothing but a fantasy.
Moreover, since he possessed a superpower,
he believed,
there might not be only one person in this world with superpowers.
Perhaps the state apparatus possessed many powerful Superpower Users.
Once his superpower was exposed,
he might be captured, either as a research subject or a war machine.
Zhang Dagang was aware of this.
Yet, no matter how he searched, he couldn't find them.
Zhang Dagang's face turned grim.
After being shrunk, people were not as easily discovered.
Moreover, although the door was blocked by a tank,
there were still gaps.
A regular-sized person couldn't pass through.
But a shrunken person could easily get through!
He was careless. He should have known that faced with such a situation, ordinary people would be scared stupid.
Who would think of escaping?
Now it's troublesome.
Zhang Dagang showed some urgency on his face.
Constantly checking around.
Trying to find the missing person.
And for the people inside the bottle, because the bottle kept shaking,
it was like experiencing an earthquake of magnitude eight.
Screams resounded continuously.
Unfortunately, inside the bottle, their screams couldn't be heard outside.
The sound they could make now was probably just a few decibels.
Without the bottle, it might still be heard.
But with the bottle blocking it, the sound couldn't get out at all.
The one who disappeared was obviously Su Chen.
He intended to surprise Zhang Dagang.
But unexpectedly,
right as his body surged forward, he was shrunk by Zhang Dagang's superpower.
However, he reacted very quickly.
Upon realizing he'd shrunk,
he immediately found a place to hide.
Although in normal size, dealing with Zhang Dagang would have been a piece of cake,
now he had been shrunk thousands of times.
His Fighting Sword had become a needle.
To him, Zhang Dagang's size was unimaginably larger than a Tyrannosaurus rex.
Could a needle pose a threat to Zhang Dagang?
Moreover, if Zhang Dagang found him,
killing him would be as easy as crushing an ant.
Especially since he didn't know the limits of Zhang Dagang's superpower.
What if Zhang Dagang could shrink him further?
Shrink him to a centimeter, or even a millimeter.
At that point, he'd be smaller than an ant.
No matter how capable, he couldn't display any of it.
The only option was to wait and see now.
And ensure Zhang Dagang didn't find him.
He could also leave here,
and tell others what had happened.
But now, given his size,
he could easily be crushed underfoot.
Moreover, if he left, what would happen to Lin Lu?
What would happen to those inside the bottle?
So Su Chen didn't leave.
He stayed inside the jewelry store.
Zhang Dagang indeed couldn't find Su Chen.
Because Su Chen was right on his back.
Having pierced through his clothes with the Fighting Sword, then holding onto his clothes.
No matter where Zhang Dagang looked,
he couldn't locate Su Chen.
Zhang Dagang was getting impatient.
If his superpower were discovered,
he would undoubtedly invite immense trouble.
"Those inside, listen up, you're surrounded. Put down your weapons and surrender immediately. You have the right to remain silent, but anything you say can and will be used against you in court!"
The all-too-familiar voice came from outside.
Zhang Dagang knew.
The police had arrived.
Yet, the police couldn't come in for now.
After all, even though it was turned from a tank model,
it was a simulation model.
Entirely made of steel.
In other words,
its weight and strength were superior to a real tank.
The police trying to get in was no easy task.
"I know you haven't left, you better come out willingly, otherwise, I'll kill one person every minute." Zhang Dagang knew he couldn't delay any longer.
Even though the police couldn't get in, who knows if they might bring some capable experts.
He directly took one of the salesgirls from the bottle.
Pinched her between his fingers.
"I'll count to ten, if you don't come out, I'll crush her to death!" Zhang Dagang coldly said while scanning the surroundings.
"Ah, help! Please, spare me!" The salesgirl cried, tears streaming.
She hadn't yet recovered from the shock of being shrunk when Zhang Dagang pinched her with two fingers.
Even though Zhang Dagang was pinching her lightly, she felt as if her body was being crushed.
Pain, despair, fear, spread continuously.
