Sun Mo's brows immediately furrowed so tightly that they could clamp a nest of crabs to death!
As a teacher, he was most afraid of two things. First, students committing suicide. Second, students running away from home.
Although there were cases of suicide, there weren't many. However, it was far too common for students to run away from home. One must know that this was a mistake made when one's mind was immature, but the consequences could affect one's entire life.
"I want to run away from home. I want to tell my father that I have grown up!"
Emma looked excited.
"Are you serious?"
Sun Mo counter-asked.
"Of course!"
Emma's voice was powerful. "I've been too well protected by them, so much so that I can't see the world clearly. Now, I want to go out and use my eyes to see those people and those things for myself!"
"Your words sound like those of a wise man!"
Sun Mo's lips twitched.
"You agree?"
Emma pulled Sun Mo's hand. "Let's go together?"
"No!"
Sun Mo's expression turned cold. "What you should do now is to go back and sleep."
This rejection was a huge blow to Emma. Her eyes glistened with tears as if she had seen a traitor. "I thought you would understand me!"
"I just want to ask, how are you going to live if you leave home?"
Sun Mo pinched his forehead. "You can't even settle three meals a day!"
"I can work!"
Emma said righteously.
"Then aren't you going to class?"
Sun Mo persuaded, "Moreover, it's not easy to work."
"I've already run away from home. Why should I attend classes?"
Seeing that Sun Mo still wanted to persuade her, Emma directly ran upstairs. "You liar, baddie. I'm not going to bother with you anymore!"
"Oh my!"
Sun Mo was worried.
"Don't call my name!"
Emma roared.
Sun Mo felt a headache. Was this the start of the rebellious phase? But soon, he couldn't care less about this because the butler came again.
"Be quiet and obedient. Go for the examination. Don't resist, or I'll give the order to blow up your head."
The butler threatened.
The four bodyguards pointed their guns at Sun Mo.
"As long as we can confirm that you haven't developed your own consciousness, you can still come back and be Miss's bodyguard."
The butler waved his hand.
A bodyguard in a black suit immediately walked up with electronic handcuffs, preparing to restrain Sun Mo.
"Really?"
Sun Mo had a look of joy on his face. He obediently stretched out his hands, making it easier for the bodyguards to handcuff him.
"Of course!"
The butler answered decisively, but in his heart, he scolded her for being naive.
I was afraid that you would resist and escape, so I was lying to you. For a robot with doubts like you, being dealt with directly is the most effortless way.
Just when the bodyguard walked up to Sun Mo, Sun Mo suddenly made a move. With a grappling motion, he locked the bodyguard's arm and pulled him in front of him as a meat shield. At the same time, Sun Mo pulled out the handgun in the bodyguard's holster.
"Fire!"
The butler growled.
Sun Mo also fired at the first instant.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After three shots, the bodyguards were all shot between the eyebrows and fell to the ground.
When the butler saw this, he immediately turned around and ran. However, he only took two steps before he was shot in the leg and fell to the ground.
Sun Mo walked over.
"Miss, run!"
The butler did not beg for mercy. Instead, he warned Emma.
Sun Mo had wanted to pull the trigger, but because of this sentence, he let him off.
"Troublesome!"
Sun Mo scratched his head in frustration. In the villa, there were maids and gardeners. If they heard gunshots, they would definitely call the police. Hence, Sun Mo's plan of staying behind to make use of Emma wouldn't work.
(Should I bring Emma along?)
Sun Mo planned. After picking up the bodyguard's weapon, he ran upstairs.
"Emma!"
Sun Mo bent his finger and knocked on the door.
However, no one answered.
"I'm coming in!"
As Sun Mo spoke, he kicked the door open. However, there was no one in the bedroom.
The tall floor-to-ceiling windows were wide open. The night wind blew in, causing the silk curtains to flutter like flags.
Emma had run away from home!
Sun Mo saw a cartoon purse on the table that exuded the aura of a young girl. However, there was no cash inside, only bank cards.
It was because Emma knew that her father would find her through these bank cards.
Sun Mo sighed. If it wasn't for the butler bringing the bodyguards to capture him, Emma wouldn't have been able to run away. However, this was good as well. It saved him a lot of trouble.
Sun Mo followed the traces Emma had left and chased after her. However, he didn't meet up with her. Instead, he followed her all the way, preparing to meet her again after she had suffered enough and regretted it.
...
In this futuristic city, top-notch officials, tycoons, politicians, entrepreneurs, and so on were the country's upper class. They lived at the highest level and enjoyed the best scenery and the brightest sunlight.
The middle level was left for the middle class. They had savings and a certain social status, such as professors, doctors, scholars, and so on.
At this level, as long as they worked hard, they wouldn't have to worry about food and clothing. There would even be a stage for them to realize their dreams.
Emma took the public transport and looked at the scenery along the way. After hesitating for a while, she didn't get off.
It was because she felt that since she wanted to experience life, she had to go to the lowest level.
However, she heard that it was the soil of crime, breeding all sorts of evil!
It should be very dangerous, right?
(Sigh, I should have asked him to come along!)
However, whenever she thought of how he actually rejected her, Emma would feel very angry.
"I can survive alone. At most, I would just be killed!"
Emma was in a fit of pique. She basically didn't know that there were some things that were a hundred times crueler than death.
"Next battle, terminal station. Passengers, please pay attention and alight from the right!"
In the hover train, a sudden announcement rang out, causing Emma to be at a loss.
"Eh? Terminal station, aren't we going to continue forward? "
Emma had no choice but to follow the flow of people out of the train station. Then, a dilapidated scene entered her eyes.
This …
Emma was dumbfounded. In the past, she and her classmates had secretly come down because they were curious, but it wasn't like this!
Emma didn't know that even for the middle level, the living environment and living facilities were also different.
It was like a modern city. The closer it was to the city center, the more developed it was.
Emma's current location was at the intercity line, connecting to the underground area. There were several major entrances and exits, and there were sentry posts with fully armed soldiers standing there. At the same time, there were also soldiers driving patrol cars on the intercity line, patrolling non-stop.
"How do I go down?"
Emma braced herself and walked to the sentry post to ask the soldiers.
"Miss, what are you going down for?"
The soldier looked at Emma. "Forgive me for being blunt, but it's very dangerous down there!"
"I want to go down and have a look, to experience life!"
Emma was timid. She retreated, wanting to leave as soon as possible. However, the captain of the sentry post walked out. "Name, age, address!"
Emma had no choice but to report it.
When he heard that Emma was a noble lady who lived on the top floor, the captain had an idea and signaled his subordinates to let her pass.
"Haha, my chance is here!"
The captain was ecstatic.
It was too difficult for ordinary people to climb up in society. This captain didn't have any skills, but now, there was a pie falling from the sky.
As long as he secretly followed this lady and saved her when she was in danger, her parents would most likely repay him.
Not to mention promoting him, just giving him some money was enough to change his life.
"I passed just like that? Is it very simple? "
After Emma walked a distance away, she turned back and looked down. She heaved a sigh of relief. She felt that she might have made a big deal out of nothing.
Actually, Emma didn't know that people from the upper class could go down as long as it was recorded and confirmed that it wasn't illegal. However, people from the lower class could never think of coming up without a huge contribution.
If they tried to barge in or sneak in, they would be executed immediately after being caught.
The further Emma walked, the further away she was from the sentry post. Then, the environment began to change significantly.
Because this futuristic city was three-dimensional, a large number of buildings were constructed in the upper and middle parts, blocking the light. Hence, in the lower regions, even if it was daytime, the illumination level was similar to that of dusk.
Such an atmosphere, in addition to the lack of surveillance, would naturally breed a large number of crimes.
Emma soon discovered that there were people at the side of the road who kept on surveying her. This caused her to feel very flustered and she subconsciously quickened her steps.
"The fat sheep is here!"
A few young men whistled and followed her.
They were from the Skull and Bones Guild.
This region was managed by the Skull and Bones Guild. They had relied on machetes to conquer this place.
Extorting people who had just entered the underground world was a way for them to make a living for their families.
"It's time to act!"
The leader lit up a cigarette and after instructing, he quickened his steps. But all of a sudden, a hand was placed on his shoulder.
The leader turned his head and saw a young man in a black suit smiling at him.
"Brother, lend me a lighter!"
Sun Mo spoke.
"Are you f * cking teasing this daddy?"
The young man was enraged. "Where's your cigarette?"
This man in a black suit was clearly looking for trouble!
"Cigarette?"
Sun Mo's brows twitched. He lifted his hand and blasted it on the leader's nose.
Bang!
After that, he kneed the leader again.
The leader felt pain, feeling as though his intestines were about to break. He instinctively clutched his stomach and knelt on the ground. As for the cigarette in his mouth, it fell to the ground.
Pak!
Sun Mo caught it in passing.
"Don't I have one now?"
Sun Mo chortled. He stretched out his hand and pressed the cigarette on the leader's forehead.
Zi!
His skin and flesh were scalded.
"Kill him!"
A few young men immediately pulled out their daggers and rushed over.
Guns?
Their statuses were too low and they couldn't get their hands on such weapons.
Sun Mo didn't even blink. He slashed his hand toward a young man's wrist and quickly snatched the knife. With a backhand swing, he stabbed the knife into the young man's chest.
Swish!
Sun Mo pulled out his knife and fresh blood spurted out.
He exerted force with his right hand and pulled the injured young man out of the circle, obstructing the others and breaking their formation. After that, he closed in on them.
A minute later, the five young men were all lying on the ground, howling in agony.
Pak!
Sun Mo tossed the dagger away. As he walked, he tidied his suit.
Very good, no blood splattered on his body.
"You are dead for sure for daring to offend our Skull and Bones Guild!"
The leader stared at Sun Mo with a gaze like that of a wolf.
Sun Mo halted his steps and turned his head.
"Ha, are you afraid now?"
The leader mocked.
"Do you know? If you don't court death, you won't die! "
Sun Mo took out his gun.
The leader, who had wanted to say some ruthless words, had a stunned expression. He seemed to have gotten himself into big trouble.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Sun Mo opened fire, blasting the heads of the leader's subordinates.
"Spare me, my life isn't even as valuable as a bullet."
The leader was so frightened that he peed his pants. He crawled far away while crying. After a gunshot rang out, his cries abruptly stopped.
Sentry post!
The soldiers could faintly hear gunshots, but they didn't care. After all, this was the norm in the underground world.
