Three days later, at the Social Security Bureau.
In fact, Huai Shi didn't know where the hell this place was because he was wearing a mask all the way in. When he opened his eyes, he was sitting in an empty room.
Above his head was a pale white lamp, in front of him was a table. Under the white light, the person sitting behind the table was expressionless.
"Did I do something again?"
Huai Shi sluggishly looked around. Without waiting for Mo San to speak, he skillfully reported: "Huai Shi, male, seventeen years old, student … …"
"… …"
Mo San stared at him dumbfoundedly, then turned to look at his colleague beside him, not knowing what he was doing.
"En? Aren't you interrogating me? "
Huai Shi was overjoyed, "So I didn't do anything?"
"Humph, like an idiot."
The youth in the corner, Yuan Zhao, crossed his arms. His expression was disdainful, as if he wanted to find fault. Mo San slapped the back of his head.
"What are you doing here? Get out, get out … … "
Yuan Zhao had an innocent expression: "Big cousin told me to come."
"Call him bureau chief. Big cousin is not something you can call." Mo San raised his hand and slapped again. This time, Yuan Zhao pulled back his head and dodged.
"So, can someone explain to me what's going on?" Huai Shi raised his hand and asked.
Mo San's expression became complicated. After looking at him for a long time and confirming that he really didn't know, he said: "This is the Jin Ling Social Security Bureau's prison department. Due to various reasons and confidentiality, we can't let you know the specific location and how to get in. "
"En, I can see that." Huai Shi looked around at the dark walls and nodded: "And then?"
"And then, there's no and then."
Mo San spread out his hands, "To be honest, I just came to drink a cup of tea with you. You can relax a bit. After all, you are now a member of the Astronomy Society. You didn't violate the twelve copper tables and border regulations, so we won't do anything to you.
Moreover, the person who brought you here wasn't me. "
Speaking of this, Huai Shi became angry.
That muscular old bastard suddenly jumped out of the car and grabbed him. He didn't even have time to react to what was going on.
Then, the sound of heavy footsteps came from outside the door.
"Alright, I've already made arrangements with them."
It was rare for the old man to wear a jacket. He swaggered in from the outside and pulled a stool to sit down as if it was his own home. He said to Huai Shi, "Take a break and get ready to go on stage later."
"What the hell?"
Huai Shi was dumbfounded. "What have you arranged for me this time?"
He was afraid of this old man.
For the past few days, he had been thinking of ways to torture himself. Fitness training was a piece of cake for him. Later on, he repeatedly sent Huai Shi flying with the Drummer to let him experience the changes in strength. He also tied up Huai Shi's hands and held the Gatling gun behind him, forcing him to run for his life and practice the Yu Steps … He did all these perverted things, making Huai Shi want to pay more money.
However, Huai Shi gritted his teeth and persevered when he remembered that he couldn't lower his head to the forces that were trying to scam him.
Who would have thought that this old bastard would go overboard and throw him into jail?
"Actual combat training."
The old man took a break and held a gripper. He casually explained, "Training every day is not very useful. After learning enough, it's time to practice actual combat. Otherwise, after three years of fighting, you won't be beaten until you can't tell which way is north."
Huai Shi was so angry that he flipped the table. "What the hell do you mean by putting actual combat in jail?!"
"Of course, it's the kind that won't stop until you're dead." Elder Luo asked with a serious face, "Otherwise, what kind of actual combat is it?"
"…"
Huai Shi was stunned for a long time before he reacted. He stuttered for a long time before asking, "What you're doing is illegal, right?"
"Hahaha, what you said is really interesting." Elder Luo snorted. "Next time you say something like this, please take yourself out and shoot yourself. Many people have died in your hands … I remember that you weren't so sissy when you were killing and arson. What was that person's name again? Qi Wen?"
"This is different from that!"
"They're more or less the same." Elder Luo slapped a thick stack of things on the table. "This is your opponent today, a disciple of the Soul Eater Cult who should have been executed … When he was caught, he was sitting at the dining table of the family of three. The soup in the pot was still hot. Guess what he cooked?"
Huai Shi did not say anything. He lowered his head and looked at the trial book on the table. After a long time, he shook his head.
"I didn't come here to train for this."
"Then what did you come here for? To work out? " Elder Luo asked back, "You learned how to kill people, but you didn't kill them. Then why?"
"At least, I didn't learn this kind of thing to kill people."
Huai Shi raised his eyes and looked at him. His expression became resolute. "I'm not standing here for this either."
"Then what is it for?"
"I don't know."
Huai Shi shook his head crisply, causing the old man to frown.
"If you don't understand what you've chosen, then obediently go home and drink your happy water. Little brat, the world of the Ascended isn't so gentle."
Huai Shi's expression was calm. He only looked at him and asked back, "You can't take it for granted that you'll become bad just because this world isn't good, right?"
"Naive." Elder Luo said coldly.
"A long time ago, someone asked me why I became a Ascended. She told me that no matter what I choose, in the end, it's like a chain of idioms, I'll start doing whatever I want, whatever I want, whatever I want …"
Huai Shi muttered to himself for a long time and said seriously, "I've always thought about what she meant by that sentence. Only now do I vaguely understand — sometimes, the important thing isn't doing whatever you want, but what you can't do."
In the silence, the youth raised his eyes and looked at him. "Maybe I chose to become strong so I can do whatever I want, but the premise shouldn't be that I have more choices. It shouldn't be that I can't find a way to solve a problem other than killing people, right?"
In the corner, Yuan Zhao glanced at him and opened his mouth to speak. Then, he was slapped on the back of his head by Mo San.
"Children shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking."
After saying this, the cold and elegant big sister pinched his ear and dragged him out.
In the silence, Elder Luo silently looked at Huai Shi. He seemed unhappy, but he also seemed to have finally caught a glimpse of something behind that calm face and gradually came to a realization.
"Huai Shi, it's really irritating to see that childish face of yours that's so serious and bragging."
Although he said this, he finally stopped calling the youth in front of him a 'little rascal'. He gradually retracted his previous contempt and his expression became calm.
"Then, are you going to refuse this competition? You're even going to admit defeat before going on stage? "
"No, I'll win."
Huai Shi calmly looked at him. "Since this is a lesson, I'll complete it. If this is a question you set, then I'll solve it.
But no matter what kind of plan or education you have, no matter what you want me to become, I'm afraid it'll be very difficult for me to satisfy your wishes. "
"It really sounds like something a bad student would say."
Elder Luo cheerfully smiled. "As an educator, I'm already looking forward to the day when you 'turn over a new leaf'."
"There won't be such a day."
Huai Shi stood up, picked up the verdict on the table and walked towards the door.
Just as Huai Shi was about to leave, he was stopped by the old man. The old man with his back facing him suddenly asked. "Hey, do you know the consequences of being merciful to your enemy?"
"Don't worry."
Huai Shi waved his hand at the old man. "I don't have much of that kind of thing left."
The door closed.
Under the silent light, the silent old man silently smiled.
Under the pressure of countless muscles, this expectant smile became especially sinister.
For the first time in his life, he actually ignited a trace of the passion of an educator. This kind of nonsense. As expected, if a student is too obedient, then there's no meaning, right?
.
.
In the darkness, there seemed to be countless whispers.
In the deep darkness that even light couldn't penetrate, a hunched and thin figure was shackled. His eyes were drooping, as if he was immersed in a dream.
However, the darkness was dancing. It was countless thin and almost indistinguishable fog. Along with the whispers, it spread in all directions. However, immediately after, it retreated under the electric light and was imprisoned in the cage.
In the long silence, the passage of time didn't matter until the sound of heavy footsteps slowly walked over.
The window of the cage was pulled open, revealing a pair of iron-gray vertical pupils.
"Walker Carroll." The guard named Chen Qingyang coldly said. "The time has come."
"Finally …"
The prisoner named Walker slowly raised his head. It was a face that was so thin that it was almost skeletal. There was also a pair of frighteningly large pitch-black eyes. He grinned. "To be honest, I thought you would directly execute me."
"I will."
Chen Qingyang calmly said. "Even if you can win, you'll just be struggling at death's door for a while. There's no need to be so happy."
"Survival, sir. Survival is the most enjoyable thing."
Walker narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath. "The countless inverted dreams and the countless fragmented dreams are intoxicating at every moment … To be honest, I really love this place."
"It's rare for someone to like it. Please remember to give us a good review after you die."
Chen Qingyang stretched out his hand and pulled open the door of the cage. An invisible force unlocked Walker's shackles, causing the countless darkness imprisoned in his body to gush out.
As he closed his eyes, in the blink of an eye, countless large and small eyes opened in the darkness. Some were mocking, some were angry, some were happy, some were confused … Countless eyes flowed, and finally, they looked at Chen Qingyang.
"Where's my opponent?"
Chen Qingyang said. "Just behind you."
Boom!
At that moment, the four walls of the cage slowly opened amidst a loud noise.
Incandescent cold light shone down from the dome, illuminating countless huge hubs. It was as if the steel jungle was rapidly changing. The walls, the floor … Everything was rapidly shifting, appearing, and retracting.
In the end, it turned into a huge plaza.
As Walker Carroll turned around, the youth's figure slowly rose from behind the opened door.
"Ah, such an intoxicating Origin Substance!"
Around Walker, in the darkness, countless huge eyes started to tremble in excitement, as if they had smelled some delicacy.
The Level 3 Stigmata, Nightmare, had awakened!
