Da Da Da Da ~

As Scott followed Lin Rui and Bucky, he gradually moved away from Luis’ apartment. It would be difficult for Luis and his friends to find him unless they expanded their search.

Lin Rui has been using his Insight Technique to keep an eye on their surroundings, ensuring that they were not being followed. He discovered and removed the monitoring ants on Scott’s body quietly. After learning that Scott would become the new Ant-Man, it would be impossible for Lin Rui to miss any abnormalities on him.

Although Dr. Pym’s ant team was small enough to be overlooked, it would be impossible for Lin Rui’s Insight Technique to miss them. In the past, Lin Rui’s Insight Technique was used to detect human beings and normal situations, but now he needs to be more careful to distinguish small worms and ants in every corner. This is also a new exercise and challenge for Lin Rui’s Psychic Power.

“Okay, how much further do we have to go?” Reese Scott couldn’t help but ask after following the two people in front and turning a corner into an alley.

As he spoke, Scott had also stopped. Although he was shocked and curious about what Lin Rui had said earlier, he would not let the other party manipulate him. At least, he needs to know what the other party’s plans were.

Hearing Scott’s voice, Lin Rui and Bucky who were walking in front also stopped and turned around. Lin Rui took a brief look at the alley without surveillance and street lights.

“Let’s stay here, no one should be able to monitor us,” Lin Rui said calmly after observing the area.

“Surveillance? Who are you? What do you want from me?” Scott asked in confusion.

“You don’t have to worry about who we are, we’re just two ordinary people passing by. I just happen to know the situation you’re in now and I wanted to come here and give you some reminders,” Lin Rui smiled and answered, seeing Scott’s nervous look.

“Hmph! Reminder? What reminder? You just said at the apartment building that I would be arrested if I returned this suit. How did you know?” Scott continued to question Lin Rui.

“This… because you are completely under someone else’s design now,” Lin Rui replied with a light tone, knowing that Scott must have many doubts now.

“Design? You mean the voice in the helmet?” Scott’s eyes flickered as if he had realized something upon hearing Lin Rui’s words.

“Well, do you really think that the suit is so easy to steal? If the other party hadn’t done it on purpose, you would have been caught when you entered the villa,” Lin Rui said with a smile, noting the change in Scott’s expression.

Hearing this, Scott finally understood. Based on his personal experience, the special suit in his bag was worth many times more than the cash and jewelry that Luis had mentioned. Furthermore, since the other party had such a suit in their vault, the defense system couldn’t be that simple.

“Then what’s that guy’s purpose? Even if he deliberately let me steal the suit, shouldn’t it be okay for me to go back now? No matter what their plans are, I don’t want to be a part of it,” Scott said with a helpless expression on his face.

“The other party’s purpose is actually very simple, they just want to test you. And your performance should be regarded as a pass, although you looked a little embarrassed when you fell from upstairs this morning,” Lin Rui wouldn’t speak ill of Dr. Pym, his purpose was to make Scott take fewer detours, and make Dr. Pym less suspicious of them.

“Test? What is this test for? To see if I can remain calm in this situation?!” Scott said directly, hearing Lin Rui’s words.

“Uh… this is one of the more important reasons. However, the main purpose of the other party is to ask for your help. Of course, the other party is a good person, did I forget to mention that?” Under Scott’s questioning, Lin Rui replied with a hint of embarrassment.

Scott: “…”

Bucky: “…”

“You really didn’t mention that.”

“Well, I came here to remind you. If you want to fight for your daughter’s visitation rights or custody rights, then cooperating with the other party is the best choice. And, you may even be able to save the world in the process.” Lin Rui quickly covered up his embarrassment and said.

According to Lin Rui’s Insight Technique, there are already many ant squads and flying insect squads around. It’s obvious that besides the ant on Scott, Dr. Pym has other tracking methods. The most likely one was the Ant-Man armor, after all, Dr. Pym couldn’t let Scott run around with it.

“Are you sure that guy can help me meet my daughter?” Scott didn’t care about Lin Rui’s talk about saving the world. What he was most concerned about was whether or not they could help him see his daughter.

“Don’t worry, since the other party has this kind of technology, he for sure would be able to resolve a small family dispute,” Lin Rui replied seriously with a nod.

As he answered, Lin Rui also quietly released his own Psychic Power. Those ants and flying insects were about to fly into this alley, Lin Rui wanted to disturb them a little.

“If what you said is true, I will agree even if it is dangerous!” For his daughter, Scott would pay any price.

“Well, we should go too. Scott, remember, we will show up when you need help.” All that needs to be said has been said, and Lin Rui has blocked those ants and flying insects for a while, It’s time for them to leave too.

Brush!

Then, Lin Rui nodded to Bucky before they quickly turn around and walked out of the alley. As he turned around, Lin Rui flicked his right hand and threw a small ball toward Scott. Scott caught it calmly after seeing it. When Scott put away the ball, the figures of Lin Rui and Bucky had disappeared into the dark alley.

After Lin Rui and Bucky left, hundreds of ants and dozens of flying insects swarmed into the alley without Scott noticing. Then, the tiny cameras mounted on these ants and flying insects have already transmitted all the situation in the alley to the background, which is Dr. Pym’s underground secret room. However, besides Scott, Dr. Pym didn’t find anyone else.

Under Dr. Pym’s monitoring, Scott stood alone in the alley for a while, then shook his head as if he had made a decision. Then, with Dr. Pym’s surprised expression on his face, Scott went back to Luis’ apartment building with his bag on his back.
