Chapter 183: Persuasion

It looks like Situ An is hiding here.

The death memory in Gao Mings heart was like a seared brand. The pain of the many deaths triggered his every nerve. He couldnt control himself and opened the door before the big dog did. There was no gore or horror. There was no ghost or monster either. It could be considered the cleanest room in the office building. Everything was arranged neatly, as if the owner had some compulsion tendencies.

A surveillance room?

Inside the room, there was a wall that was filled with monitors. The owner could examine most of the things that happened in the school from this room. The monitors were like eyes planted into the wall. On the table near the wall, there was a camera and a microphone. The owner could give all the orders from this hidden room.

Han De Private Schools expansion was approved by Situ An. He should be behind this secret room. The big dog poked his head in. His nose twitched. His paw lingered in the air, hesitating whether to enter the room or not. He was a dog that gave off the feeling of a cat.

Situ An is here. I can sense it. Gao Ming was certain. Once he said that, all the screens started to change. After a quick static, a man in a chair appeared on the screens. His body was punctured by strange tubes. He appeared to be ill. But even though his skin was rotting and he looked like he was dying, he sat up straight and was very calm, like everything was within his control.

Situ An.

Gao Ming thought hed be angry or in pain when he saw Situ Ans face, but actually, he merely wanted to kill the man and trap him inside the torture room.

Gao Ming, a student with average results from Class 13. Ranked 9 in class. A psychiatrist at Hen Shan Penitentiary, but you failed to pass your psyche exam since last month. Situ Ans voice came from everywhere. It was impossible to tell his location.

Thats a detailed investigation. Have you noticed me from the start? Gao Ming had no idea what kind of script fate had given Situ An, but no matter what, only one of them could survive.

Situ An shook his head. Ive seen so many people who are more dangerous than you. You havent given me a reason to pay you any attention. I merely have a good memory and have read about everyone in your class.

With his eyes on Gao Ming, Situ An suddenly asked, Have we met?

Gao Ming didnt answer. He tried to find Situ Ans presence.

If we havent met, then you should be Doctor Lus killer. When I appeared in Doctor Lus body, there was a moment of shock and a desire to kill on your face. It was as if you knew the real Doctor Lu had died. But why would you kill Doctor Lu? He works for me, but he rarely appears in front of others. You must have planned this in advance to find the chance to kill him. Therefore, your real target is still me. You killed me simply because itd be easier to kill me later. Situ An stared at Gao Ming silently. His eyes and expression didnt change. Even Gao Ming couldnt read anything from his face.

If thats the case, you must have seen me before and have a solid reason to kill me. Gao Mings figure was reflected in the eyes. Situ An continued like he was chatting with an old friend, Can you tell me this reason? Is it money? Power? Revenge? Or to protect more people?

Seeing Gao Ming unfazed as he continued to look for his real location, Situ An smiled. His eyes shone with admiration. Actually, compared to Zuo Jun, I have more hopes in you. I can give you everything you want: money, power As long as its within the east city, I can get it for you.

Sensing Gao Mings determination, Situ Ans smile slowly disappeared. He had encountered the most troublesome kind of people. These people murdered for things that normal people couldnt see, and they would put their lives on the line to achieve their goals.

Is it for the sake of justice? Situ An leaned back. The concept is very vague. The housing price in east city is ten times the housing price in west city. Is it because the houses in east city are made of gold? No. Its merely because everyone has the consensus that the east city is Han Hais most developed district and will provide value in the future. Its the same with humans. Whether you represent justice or not depends on the public.

Im the vice chief of an investigation centre and protect Han Hai. What about you? You are partners with ghosts. You and your friends destroyed the school and caused the anomaly to go out of control. Who do you think is on justices side? Who will save more people?

Situ Ans most valued underling had been killed by Gao Ming, so he turned his eyes to Gao Ming.

Ive snatched Han De Shu Xiang Academy from Yan Xizhi and turned this place into the shadow worlds dining table. Perhaps you see me as cruel, but without me, more people will die.

Im conducting an experiment related to the lives of everyone in the city. Accidents are unavoidable, but their deaths will help create a new world.

Situ An was not nervous. He seemed to enjoy this. The door was blocked. He was somewhere in the room.

During the 20th century, we had a rise in worker sentiment. Through boycotts and protests, the workers forced the capitalists to submit. However, nowadays, most jobs have been replaced by machines and AI. Capitalism doesnt need humans anymore. Do you think capitalists will still submit? Look at Xin Lu. The 10 percent living in the intelligent city are the real citizens. The other 90 percent can only be considered NPCs in a game.

Han Hai didnt turn into Xin Lu because of me and people like me. Were fighting against it at places you cant see.

Having the shadow world infiltrate the real world is not a bad thing. It is inevitable. The sky will open. Many people want to see the real world.

When the shadow sweeps through the city, the existing rules will crumble. New life will flourish on the carcasses. Then, everyone can feel the warmth of the new sun.

What about you? Let me ask you. Do you wish to be an idiot who shields his eyes from the truth and dies in a hospital bed with tubings running through you, or would you rather use your fist to shatter the window and look at the world outside?

When Situ An said the last sentence, Gao Ming triangulated his location.

If this were another person, they might have tricked by you, but I know you too well. Everything you do is for your own benefits. Gao Ming touched his heart and sensed the pain there. You want to break the shackles of fate mainly because you want to be the existence that makes the rules to control others. If you succeed, youll become the new fate.

Thats the biggest difference between you and me.
