"This is really annoying!"
Fanny did not expect that this kind of thing could still happen after he had spent so much effort setting up a shop on the Upper East Side. Truly, no ordinary person could stay in this broken place called New York.
On top of that, it was his own fault. If he had not used his skills to summon three Sumire Karaage Rolls out of thin air, he could have just thrown them to the police station.
After recalling the events carefully, Fanny felt the two robbers shouldn't have seen anything unusual. The robber that got covered by Karaage rolls was preparing to take out his gun, so his head was turned slightly. He couldn't have seen the Karaage rolls appearing out of thin air.
The other robber was lying on the ground and couldn't see anything. Fanny didn't see what Skye was doing at that moment, but it shouldn't be a huge deal even if she saw what he did. Judging from her nervous attitude, it seemed that she hadn't fully recovered for the time being.
Fanny let out a somewhat depressed sigh and decided to let the robbers go, but not before making sure that they weren't sent by someone else.
"Why did you try to rob our shop?"
"Because I need money!"
"..."
This answer made Fanny speechless.
"If you don't have money, why don't you go rob the bank? Why would you rob us?" Skye suddenly shouted angrily from beside him.
"It's impossible to rob the bank!"
These words only stoked Skye's anger, and she kicked the robbers. Strictly speaking, this shop was hers, even though it mainly relied on Fanny to make money.
Fanny felt a wave of relief after confirming that the robbers acted on their own. He warned them about the gang rules of the area and let them go after taking their guns.
"You must forget about what happened today and be a good person in the future."
Fanny used 'Ars Magna' one last time on them before they left. With their current fear of Fanny, they should forget about everything tomorrow. That is, as long as nothing unexpected happens.
Skye immediately locked the door after the robbers left and let out a sigh of relief. She asked hesitantly, "Can we just let them go like this?"
"No problem." Finney nodded with a smile. He had quietly cleaned up the three Karaage rolls on the ground and the surveillance video.
"Fanny..." While Fanny was thinking about persuading Skye not to tell his parents about what happened today, he suddenly heard Skye speak in a trembling voice, "Just now... I think I saw something suddenly appear in the air..."
"Three... three..."
"Three Karaage, yes!"
Fanny sighed and continued to look intently at her, thinking about how the world would change through the next year and the problems of her existence. Finally, he said, "You didn't see wrong, and I am the one who created them."
What color had returned to Skye's pale face disappeared. She trembled and took a step back before leaning forward and asking in fear, "Fanny, are you an alien?"
I am a pure earthling, but you may have some alien genes.
Fanny muttered in his heart. He rolled his eyes and snapped, "What do you think!"
"I... I..."
Fanny sighed as Skye stuttered, speechless. If he hadn't known about this world from his previous life, perhaps he wouldn't have reacted much better than Skye.
"Don't worry, I am Fanny Helsed, a pure Earthling. This is just a little of my special ability, just like this."
Fanny casually summoned a Sumire Karaage Rolls and handed it over to Skye.
Skye dumbfoundedly took the chicken, looked down at the food in her hand, and then back at Fanny. She silently opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Since he had been discovered, Fanny decided to stop hiding it. He continued, "Didn't you want to know why Bryan fell in the afternoon? You can think of that as one of my superpowers, too."
"Superpower!?"
Skye widened her eyes like a cute kitten. As a hacker, she thought that all the world's secrets were in her palms. But right now, she suddenly felt that she knew nothing.
"Yes." Fanny nodded. He walked to the sofa and sat down, waving at Skye to come over.
Skye walked to his side and sat down without thinking. "Did Mom and Dad know?"
"You are the only one who knows." Fanny leaned against the soft sofa and turned his head at Skye seriously. "Skye, since you already know about this, then I will be straight with you. This world is very dangerous, so don't investigate any strange things on the Internet. It will just land you in trouble."
"Are there many people with superpowers like you?" Skye's curiosity began to overcome her fear as she found that Fanny was still the same Fanny as before—just with one less secret.
"Also, your superpowers are to make people fall and to make fried chicken, is that right? Is there anything else? When did you find out about them?" Skye barraged him with questions like a curious baby. Before Fanny could answer, she continued, "Do you know anyone else with superpowers?"
Fanny scratched his head with a headache at her questions. After thinking for a while, he began to answer, "I feel that there are many people in this world who have special abilities. These abilities should be innate. I don't currently know anyone else who has superpowers."
"Skye, don't think that I am joking. This world is really dangerous." Fanny looked straight at Skye's eyes. "People like us have no control or influence over society. There is undoubtedly an organization or a force that controls all of this, most likely part of the government. If you don't want me to be taken away as a guinea pig, it is best if you help me keep this secret."
"No way..." Hearing Fanny's words, Skye immediately showed a worried expression. She wouldn't dare to gamble with his fate, and promised resolutely, "I will not tell anyone."
A moment later, she realized something. "Then the two just now..."
"It's fine; they didn't notice."
Fanny already felt 'Ars Magna' gradually taking effect. If nothing unexpected happened, they would forget everything by tomorrow and turn over a new leaf to become good people.
Skye could only pray silently that the two robbers would not reveal this matter.
Silence gradually descended. Skye was preoccupied with her worries and stopped asking questions. She also thought about how she could help if something happened.
Fanny shifted his attention to another matter. The experience bar for the system was actually full.
He could start the third extraction!
