I Am A Prodigy 141 Big Brother, Are You Superman?

If he really was powerless to do anything about that matter, he might just lament ruefully and refrain from getting involved. However, he certainly had that power, and although he could not control it 100%, the fact remained that he possessed that power. Therefore, he could not just ignore the predicament before him.

If he chose to ignore it, then what was the use of the Prodigy System? He would forever remain a coward.

Great power came with great responsibility.

“F*ck, when did I start enjoying meddling with other people’s affairs?”

Ye Lingchen cursed and continued his mad rush upstairs. There were 16 floors and he did not slow down at all halfway. It only took him two-and-a-half minutes.

A sea of ​​fire!

A very violent sea of fire!

The red flames burned before Ye Lingchen’s eyes and the extremely high temperature immediately turned his face red. Soon, dense beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

The 16th floor was going up in flames, and in the end, he could only make a retreat to the 15th floor.

The child was on the 16th floor. He could not go up, and he certainly could not go through that sea of fire!

Ye Lingchen looked all around him and his expression eventually sank. ‘Motherf*cker, just risk it!’

He wrapped the wet towel, which he had prepared earlier, around his face to filter the air. He then walked to the window in the 15th-floor balcony. He leaned out first, then gritted his teeth before climbing to the outside!

Down below, the crowd was sent into a frenzy upon seeing him climbing.

“F*ck, man! Look, what’s that? It looks like a person!”

“The hell! It really is a person! Why are there still people inside?!”

“It can’t possibly be the person who just rushed in, right? That would be too fast!”

“What does he want to do? He’s not thinking of crawling from the outside, is he? This is crazy!”

…

Amidst the flurry of exclamations, Ye Lingchen’s entire body was already outside the window. He gripped on the window’s edges, and his whole body was lying flat on the walls of the tall building. 15 floors were almost as tall as a small hill and many did not dare to look down. Despite that, Ye Lingchen clung to the wall and moved little by little.

From the looks of the situation, he seemed to be attempting to save the trapped children using only his bare hands!

It was too shocking and too bold!

His courage was commendable, but his actions were not well-thought-out.

“Young man, please stop for a moment and ensure your own safety!” The fire chief immediately took the horn loudspeaker and shouted.

Little Ya was an outdoor host. With her eloquent communication skills, she brought everyone sightseeing around Capital’s various attractions as well as doing mukbangs of Capital’s delicious food. As a result, she garnered quite a following.

She was doing a live stream around the area that day, and after hearing of the fire, she rushed to the scene as fast as she could.

Holding her mobile phone, she pointed the camera toward the scene of the fire and put on a solemn expression when providing live updates. “Gosh, what happened, why did it catch fire? The fire is now extremely strong and it’s on the verge of being out of control.”

Next, she recorded the firefighters and the onlookers who were all around her. She then said in a worrisome tone, “It’s so scary. I don’t know if there are any casualties.”

She immediately went up to the crowd to get a better idea of what was happening. The more she listened, the more shocked she became.

With the camera focused on the building, she zoomed in. “There are still two children trapped in the building! The situation is critical. God must protect them.”

Then, as soon as she turned the camera, she saw a figure was slowly moving along the building’s outer wall.

There were little, if any areas, on the external wall that could be used as support. Nevertheless, the figure was able to use the wall’s friction as well as some protrusions to get a firm grip.

The fire itself had already caused enough of a stir within the live stream. The appearance of a figure on the building induced yet another hubbub. Many fans began spreading the news about the broadcast and countless people soon poured into the live stream.

[God! Does that person want to go up and save those two children from the 15th floor?]

[That guy is amazing! He’s a hero!]

[How did he do it, this is so mystical, like he has superpowers.]

[Man, your behavior is stupid, but I want to tell you that, you’re a real man!]

[He reminds me of someone, Superman Y!]

…

Countless people looked at Ye Lingchen from down below. His hands clenched unknowingly and a tense look was plastered all over his face. Many among the crowd were unable to do anything else except fold their hands together. The only thing they could do was close their eyes and silently say a silent prayer for Ye Lingchen.

The parents of the two children even knelt on the ground and looked up at the sky. Their lips trembled as they muttered continuously, “Please protect them, God.”

Of course, Ye Lingchen did not have the luxury of paying attention to everyone’s reaction. He had moved halfway by then. The fire was getting closer and closer and he could faintly hear the child’s cries.

He glanced around and his eyes finally spotted an air conditioner’s condenser not far away.

After taking a few deep breaths, he bent his slightly. Then, he leaped into the air like a monkey and swung toward the air conditioner!

Holy moly!

His body landed heavily on the air conditioner’s condenser. However, the tremendous impact and weight caused the condenser to sway violently. It squeaked and appeared to tilt as if it would break at any time.

“Hero! Be careful!” Everyone’s nerves were on edge and there were a lot of shouts coming from below.

Ye Lingchen’s eyes lit up. His body kept up with his pace, and after stabilizing himself quickly, he proceeded to make yet another jump!

He landed on the windowsill of a 15th-floor family home and was directly below the two children!

Under everyone’s intense gaze, he grabbed the edge of the windowsill. He then gripped hard and launched his body up, planting his feet on the windowsill.

[Awesome! Nice job!]

[It’s amazing, it’s more exciting than making a movie!]

[Even if you make a movie with special effects, it’s not gonna be as amazing as this. We have a hero amongst us common folk, this is a real hero!]

[Ahh, ahh, ahh! So handsome! He’ll be my Prince Charming from now on!]

[Come on, you can do it! You must rescue the children.]

Whether it was people from the live stream or just passers-by, everyone had their hopes on Ye Lingchen. They stared at the figure on the top of the building without blinking and did not even dare breathe. It felt as though the tiniest action from them would affect Ye Lingchen’s ability to rescue the children.

“Does he want to jump up from the fifteenth floor?” Everyone licked their chapped lips. They looked at Ye Lingchen—who seemed to be gearing up his strength—with great worry.

Each household was equipped with an air-conditioner, of which the condenser was beside the windowsill. The condenser’s distance between two floors was about one-point-five meters away from the windowsill.

The previous condenser was on the 15th floor. Next up, Ye Lingchen planned to jump from the 15th-floor windowsill to the 16th floor’s condenser. Then, with the condenser as a springboard, he would make another jump to the 16th floor!

Ye Lingchen bent his legs then launched his body into the air. He managed to step foot on the condenser, which produced a loud clatter!

Bang!

The impact was much more violent than the previous one, with the entire condenser tilting by more than half. It teetered on the verge of collapse.

However, Ye Lingchen had jumped up again after barely setting foot on the condenser. There was almost no pause in between and his hands managed to grab on to the 16th-floor windowsill!

At the same time, the condenser suffered too much pressure as well. It collapsed immediately and was left hanging on the wall.

[YES! He made the jump!]

[It’s so exciting! It’s more hair-raising than those Hollywood movies!]

Everyone erupted with praise while the two children’s parents were red with emotion. They looked like they had seen the dawn of hope.

Phew!

Ye Lingchen breathed a sigh of relief and slowly climbed up the windowsill.

He then saw two adorable children wiping away their tears. Shocked and surprised, they stared at him with big, red eyes.

“Big Brother, are you Superman?” …
