"Superpower Research Institute": Luke is a boy with extraordinary talents. Not only does he have an extraordinary IQ, but his emotional intelligence is also quite extraordinary. At the age of 12, he easily gained admission to MIT and Emerson College. On an ordinary midnight, uninvited guests suddenly broke into Luke's secluded apartment in the suburbs of Minneapolis, killed Luke's parents, and kidnapped him. The whole journey takes less than two minutes. When Luke woke up, he found himself in a mysterious institution. Locked with him were Avery, Carissa, Nick, Helen and a dozen other children. These kids come from all over the country and all have some special ability: telekinesis or telepathy. At first, managers would freely experiment on them. In less than three weeks, when the children's powers have been squeezed out, they will be abandoned in the back half of the cockroach hotel. The children couldn't bear the torture, but they were not willing to be manipulated. Seeing his friends disappear one by one, the few best friends clinging to each other mustered up the courage to secretly help Luke escape successfully. Unexpectedly, Luke stepped out of the wolf's den and stepped closer to the tiger's mouth. He discovered that the institute's informants were spread all over the country. And he has already become a wanted felon who shot his parents to death. While he was hiding carefully, he had to work hard to be strong and struggle in the menacing and complex reality...
