Daily Evolution from Mastering Tai Chi
Chapter 395 - 293: Clues, Divine Creation_2
At this moment, Daniel found Wang Ye staring at the confession absentmindedly for a while. He laughed and said, "The gang member who provided this confession is a hopeless addict, possibly with some mental issues, so you don’t need to pay attention to the content of this confession. Squeezing a heart to explode from a distance? It’s all nonsense. Who would believe this kind of rubbish from an addict?"
"Indeed, it’s quite absurd." Wang Ye nodded.
Not to mention Daniel,
If he hadn’t truly grasped telekinesis,
He certainly wouldn’t believe such things could appear in reality.
After all, even he himself still hasn’t fully understood the principles of Primordial Qi and telekinesis.
This stuff has gone far beyond the cognitive limits of today’s scientific level.

About three minutes later.
Wang Ye finished flipping through these dozens of pages of document files and closed the folder.
He apologized to Daniel, "Just from these materials, I can’t see any clues."
"No worries, these materials are just to give you a preliminary understanding of Rein. The real show is coming next." Daniel took out a few CDs from his bag, "These are surveillance videos from various districts we have acquired during this period, containing twenty-seven suspicious individuals who might be Rein. If you can identify the real Rein from them, it would be a great help to me."
Wang Ye gestured with his hand, "Go ahead and play them for me."
Daniel inserted the CD into his laptop and started playing the video.
The video showed many fake Reins, dressed in Rein’s attire. Most were wearing this mask and committing crimes, robbing, and even murdering ordinary people on the street.
The videos mostly consisted of very blurry surveillance footage, barely allowing one to discern the general physique and movements of these "Reins". As an ordinary person, Daniel naturally couldn’t discover any clues from them. However, Wang Ye, highly familiar with the human body and movement, could easily identify these impersonators. With Wang Ye’s current observational ability, he could effortlessly judge the identity, character, and even thoughts of the individual based on their posture, shape, and habitual actions.
But even without utilizing his insight, Wang Ye could recognize that the eighth surveillance video featured the real Rein, because Rein was himself. How could he not distinguish his own self?
Now, Wang Ye faced the dilemma of whether to tell Daniel the truth. If he told the truth, there was a risk of exposure for him and the Sloos Gang. If he didn’t, he might incur suspicion for concealing the truth. The choice between the lesser of two evils seemed clear. Both the fictitious identity of Rein and the Sloos Gang were not as significant as his main identity.
Furthermore, even if Wang Ye provided clues to Daniel, it wasn’t guaranteed they could truly trace the Sloos Gang and Rein’s alter ego. After all, Wang Ye hadn’t left yet, so how could he allow the police to easily search out traces of the Sloos Gang? With Wang Ye’s maneuvering ability, he could keep the Rein identity perpetually mysterious, possibly creating a divine figure or religion from it.
Wang Ye pondered momentarily before speaking, "According to the file description, the original ’Rein’ should be about one meter ninety tall with a burly physique."
"Yes, that’s right." Daniel nodded.
"There’s something I assume you already know, and I suspect you’ve come here because of it." Wang Ye maintained a calm demeanor, "From your description and the file contents, the physical data of this Rein basically matches mine, doesn’t it?"
"...You guessed right." Daniel looked at Wang Ye with a hint of surprise. It seemed he didn’t expect Wang Ye to speak so bluntly about it.
Wang Ye continued, "I’ll give you the answer directly. The figure in the eighth surveillance video is likely the real Rein; you can use this video to find leads."
Daniel, following Wang Ye’s description, repeatedly watched the eighth video.
His eyes brightened increasingly,
"Thanks for the help; I’ll go back to report the situation now."
With that, Daniel quickly packed his things and went downstairs to sit in the driver’s seat of his car, ready to leave.
After seeing Daniel off, Wang Ye returned to the inn.
He intended to go out for training but suddenly remembered Carlos in the neighboring room.
Since Carlos was rescued by Wang Ye from falling during the Emergence of Power challenge, he remained sulking in the room for several days, only coming out to eat. Clearly, he suffered a significant mental shock, although his state recovered about seventy to eighty percent after a few days, and he could basically talk to others normally now.
But every time he saw Wang Ye, his eyes retained a trace of fear. As if Wang Ye’s single-armed endurance of the impact weighing over ten thousand pounds was indelibly imprinted in his heart.
As Carlos’s teammate, Wang Ye felt a need to properly guide him, preventing Carlos from staying cooped up in the room. This way, not only would Carlos be uncomfortable, but those around him would also feel uneasy.
After a moment of contemplation, Wang Ye knocked on Carlos’s door.
About ten seconds later, the door opened.
Carlos’s slightly weary face appeared behind the door.
"Wang Ye? What’s up?"
Wang Ye walked into the room and inquired, "Carlos, after this challenge is completed, what is your next plan? Can you share it with me?"
After a period of hesitation, Carlos said, "I might continue completing challenges, don’t worry about me, I’m just a bit tired."
Wang Ye: "If you are really very exhausted, you can go back to Mexico for some rest after this. The remaining challenges won’t be scheduled tightly due to the season, with around two months left until the next challenge, Life of Wind, in Mexico, you have sufficient time to prepare well and replenish your energy, which is beneficial for extreme challenges."
According to Li Weimin’s stipulated plan, now that the Emergence of Power challenge has succeeded.
The remaining challenges will be tackled after December, when they head to the Alps for the challenges.
Because the fifth challenge, "Life of Wind," and the sixth, "Life of Ice," are both to be completed in the Alps.
"Life of Wind" involves wingsuit flying on the Alps, while "Life of Ice" requires skiing there. The reason for waiting until December for the challenges is that only during December will winter arrive at the Alps, providing the perfect skiing venue.
To take on Life of Ice, a perfect snow layer is indispensable. During the winter months from December to February in the Alps, the snow layer’s thickness is ideal, marking the prime time for skiing.
Although the winter wind might slightly impact wingsuit flying,
If the warmth is well maintained, the impact can be negligible.
After all, Wang Ye has parachuted off Mount Everest at fifty degrees below zero.
Why would he fear the minus twenty-degree temperatures of the Alps?
Moreover, Wang Ye currently has no knowledge of skiing skills. A period of learning is necessary before challenging it.
So, Ozaki’s Eight challenge needs to be postponed for a month or two. During this time, Wang Ye will return home to complete some pre-scheduled things.
Meanwhile, Carlos can return home to rest for a period and adjust his mentality.
Hearing this, Carlos’s originally tense expression relaxed slightly, "Thank you; I will go back to Mexico for some downtime during this period, and I will complete the challenges. No matter what setbacks I face, I am not one to give up halfway."
