- Chapter 94 - Wonderful Gadgets
“Your girlfriend regained her senses after your sudden kiss, and you finally breathed a sigh of relief. The crisis that had been approaching had been resolved, giving you an opportunity to observe what was happening.”
“Your home had descended into chaos. The hatred buried deep within everyone’s hearts had been amplified to an astonishing degree.”
The servants employed by your family began attacking one another over the smallest disagreements.
You hurriedly used your rope ability to restrain them, but you couldn’t keep them contained for long.
What worried you most was your parents.
Fortunately, your girlfriend reacted quickly and stopped your parents just as they were about to turn on each other with knives.
At this point, you finally confirmed your suspicion.
This phenomenon wasn’t targeting you specifically.
You also understood that this was far beyond what you could handle alone.
You immediately decided to contact Xiao Ge and ask her what you should do next.
Unfortunately…
You couldn’t get through to her phone.
With no other choice, you decided to go outside and investigate the situation yourself.
But the moment you stepped outside…
You realized the entire city had already fallen into chaos.
Everyone was releasing the deepest malice in their hearts toward the people around them.
It was as though hatred itself had descended upon the city.
For a moment…
The entire world looked like it had entered the apocalypse.
The emotion known as hatred had spread across the entire city.
The transportation system had completely collapsed.
Traffic accidents could be seen everywhere.
Pedestrians wandering through the streets had become ticking time bombs, capable of suddenly unleashing unimaginable hostility against anyone nearby.
Trying to leave the city under these circumstances was practically impossible.
Perhaps…
Staying home was the safest choice.
Then you noticed something even more disturbing.
A huge crowd had gathered outside your home.
A particular form of hatred was spreading through them.
Anti-wealth.
The emotion had taken root in their minds.
They shouted that they would break into your home and kill everyone inside.
You faintly realized that this might be another stroke of the unseen hand manipulating everything.
Someone was taking advantage of the chaos to accomplish a goal you couldn’t yet understand.
You knew that person never acted directly.
For whatever reason…
They preferred to remain hidden.
But whenever an opportunity appeared, they would strike without hesitation.
Like a venomous snake…
The moment they found an opening, they would bite down and refuse to let go.
You had wondered countless times why that person refused to confront you personally.
Two possibilities repeatedly appeared in your mind.
The first was that they simply enjoyed watching from a distance.
Perhaps they preferred observing you struggle from the shadows, treating everything like an entertaining performance.
The second possibility was even more troublesome.
Perhaps your flesh wasn’t worth obtaining directly.
Instead, they wanted to force you into various desperate situations, make you destroy yourself, and then obtain whatever they ultimately desired.
There was another possibility, though.
Their rank might simply be lower than yours.
If they appeared before you directly, the difference in authority might immediately expose them to your power and result in their destruction.
After all…
When two people walked the same path, the difference in rank could determine everything.
But these questions were meaningless right now.
The mob outside your home seemed to possess some kind of tracking ability.
No matter where you tried to hide, they could somehow locate you.
Your girlfriend eventually reached her limit.
She began slaughtering the attackers.
But even the strongest person had a limit.
No matter how powerful your girlfriend had become, she was still a young woman.
Killing so many people with her own hands would inevitably leave a psychological scar.
Of course…
You couldn’t allow her to carry that burden alone.
You joined her.
Together, you fought against the rioters.
Blood stained both of you.
Then…
The situation suddenly changed.
The people who had been manipulated regained their senses.
But instead of realizing what had happened…
They looked at you and your girlfriend.
In their eyes…
You were the murderous attackers.
They screamed and fled.
And just like that…
You and your girlfriend became wanted criminals.
Justice would prevail.
Except…
No one knew the truth.
No one believed that you had acted in self-defense.
No one believed that you had been manipulated.
The evidence had already been constructed.
Under the weight of that fabricated reality…
Your supposed crimes became undeniable.
Your girlfriend looked at you quietly.
“Niannian…”
“Maybe dying together like this isn’t so bad.”
“If there’s a next life…”
“I still want to be your partner.”
“Then we’ll live an ordinary life.”
“We’ll work when the sun rises, rest when it sets, and spend our days peacefully together.”
You smiled.
You and your girlfriend were executed together.
Outside, the summer sky inexplicably began to snow.
As you both fell onto the execution ground, blood spread across the white surface like blooming roses.
[Simulation complete.]
[Unlocked ending: Sin City.]
[You believe that the most beautiful kind of love is being willing to bear every sin alongside her.]
[Even when what you did wasn’t truly sinful…]
[You were still willing to share the burden with her.]
[Truly sinful love.]
[Please select your reward:]
[1. Enhance the “Immature” ability of the storage device.]
[2. Obtain a phone that anyone must answer.]
[3. Erase the name of a crime before it can be committed.]
Xu Nian stared at the simulation results.
She hadn’t expected the ending to become this absurd.
She slowly exhaled.
A peaceful life…
Working when the sun rose and resting when the sun set…
Qingya…
Was that the life you wanted too?
Yes.
It had to be.
The simulator…
Perhaps it could eventually allow her and Su Qingya to obtain exactly that kind of future.
A peaceful life.
No crises.
No terrifying enemies.
No sudden disasters.
Just the two of them living happily together.
Xu Nian clenched her fist.
At present, Lin Ye wasn’t even her greatest threat.
He was merely a small obstacle deliberately placed in her path by the person hiding behind everything.
Her true enemy…
Was the unseen person manipulating everything from the shadows.
Xu Nian’s gaze moved toward the three rewards.
Her hand almost settled on the option to strengthen the “Immature” ability of her storage device.
But then…
Her eyes shifted toward the second reward.
A phone that anyone must answer.
Just how absolute was this “must”?
Did it mean absolutely anyone?
If so…
Could it be a rule-based item?
Xu Nian suddenly became interested.
Compared with simply strengthening an existing ability…
This strange little gadget might prove far more useful.
“Alright.”
“I’ll choose this one.”
She wanted to see exactly how mysterious this phone could be.
The moment she made her choice…
A phone appeared in her hand.
It was an old-fashioned model.
There were hardly any unnecessary features.
Just a small screen…
And a dial button.
Xu Nian pressed the power button several times.
Nothing happened.
“Is it out of battery?”
That shouldn’t be possible.
Wait…
This was a system reward.
Perhaps it didn’t require charging at all.
In that case…
How was she supposed to operate it?
Could it be controlled through thought?
Xu Nian stared at the phone thoughtfully.
“…If that’s really how it works…”
“Then this thing is quite mysterious.”
She decided to test it.
“Qingya, I want to try something.”
“Alright.”
“I’m going to call you later.”
“When the phone rings, you absolutely cannot answer.”
“Even if you really want to pick up…”
“You have to resist.”
Su Qingya looked puzzled.
“What kind of strange experiment are you conducting?”
“Just trust me.”
“Alright.”
Su Qingya didn’t ask any further questions.
After all…
Even if Xu Nian’s request was strange, she would cooperate.
Xu Nian sat a short distance away from her.
She picked up the newly obtained phone.
Then she pictured Su Qingya’s face clearly in her mind.
The dial button seemed to respond to her thoughts.
She pressed it.
Beep.
The screen suddenly lit up.
At the exact same moment…
Su Qingya’s own phone appeared in her hand as if it had been forcibly summoned.
And then…
A ringtone began to ring.
