Xue Xi paused when she heard Gao Yanchen's words.
The special department was the official department of the country's espers. This police department specialized in handling esper crimes. Strictly speaking, their job was indeed to protect the country.
After all, the damage that could be caused by an esper was too great.
For example, the person standing in front of her could burn an entire mountain once he used his special power!
Moreover, Xue Xi could feel that Gao Yanchen had actually restrained himself on the mountain that day. After all, there were still other people on the mountain. It would be bad if they got hurt.
Think about it. If there was such a person among the bad guys, how could there be no danger if it was espers like Jing Fei and Zheng Zhi who went to fight?
Hence, it was not wrong for Zheng Zhi to say that they were protecting the country.
