Chapter 100

"It was a friend, I helped her twice," Qingchen was also a bit surprised by Jiang Xue's meticulousness, which even earned praise from Aunt Ye.

Ye Wan didn’t say much more and started applying ointment to his feet.

Qingchen only felt a burning and itching sensation in his feet, which was extremely painful.

This was not what he had expected at all. He thought the wound medicine from the inner world would make him feel better.

Lin Xiaoxiao said from the side, "Bear with it, this stuff doesn’t have a pain-relieving effect, but it promotes recovery very well. Of course, there’s always a price to pay for quick recovery."

Uncle Li asked, "You said there were five enemies before. How many did you kill?"

Qingchen replied, "Six."

Ye Wan looked at Lin Xiaoxiao, "Pay up, it’s more than four."

Lin Xiaoxiao said reluctantly, "Hey, kid, you’re too ruthless... Wait, five criminals, six killed, did you sacrifice a classmate to the heavens?"

Qingchen: "...No, the number of criminals exceeded expectations, there were a total of eight."

"I see."

At this point, Qingchen, who was already used to these two betting on him, asked curiously, "How many did you bet I would kill?"

"Three, I thought killing three would be pretty good, it’s your first time killing someone!" Lin Xiaoxiao sighed, "Don’t you hesitate when you kill?"

As he spoke, Uncle Li suddenly stared at Qingchen seriously.

The young man hesitated for a moment and said, "Although it might sound indecisive, I did hesitate when I killed the first one. I felt the blood on my hands, and I was even a bit afraid, wanting to run away."

Uncle Li smiled, "That’s a normal reaction. If you didn’t hesitate at all, I would regret teaching you. I teach you to face the world fiercely, but you should always have some respect for life."

"Understood, I get what you mean, Teacher," Qingchen replied.

"Is there anything you need to prioritize when you return?" Uncle Li asked, "I can help you with it."

"There are indeed two things," Qingchen said, "I’ll deal with the first one first."

With that, he confirmed that the ointment was applied and, despite the pain, put on his shoes and walked toward the detention room.

At first, his walking posture was a bit awkward, but he forced himself to walk normally as he went on.

Lin Xiaoxiao laughed, "This kid is really ruthless to himself, he doesn’t even mind the pain in his feet. But the more ruthless a person is to themselves, the more ruthless they are to their enemies, which is a good thing."

Qingchen put on the mysterious cat mask again. As soon as the detention room opened, Liu Dezhu inside had already obediently presented three gold bars, behaving very meekly.

But Qingchen didn’t even go to pick up the gold bars; instead, he calmly asked, "Talk about your mistakes."

"I shouldn’t have ignored the communicator for so long," Liu Dezhu said submissively, "I also shouldn’t have only thought about escaping, and I shouldn’t have kept the gold bars for myself."

Qingchen laughed silently behind the mask and asked, "I know Kunlun talked to you separately. What did they say? Tell me everything."

Liu Dezhu pondered, what kind of identity does this big shot have in the outer world to know about Kunlun’s movements?

At this moment, he had some new speculations. Could it be that the big shot has many subordinates, like the killers on Laojun Mountain?

Could it be that the big shot’s subordinates informed him about the watch I secretly kept?

It’s possible.

He made this guess because he always felt that the big shot’s methods didn’t seem like those of a high school student.

High school students should be like him, afraid when they encounter danger, wanting to hide when they see a crisis. No one has experienced such terrifying things, even elite students like Hu Xiaoniu were very afraid that night.

To be precise, Liu Dezhu felt that there shouldn’t be someone like Qingchen, who could orchestrate things behind the scenes, among high school students.

Actually, Qingchen didn’t know that Kunlun had talked to Liu Dezhu; he just judged that Kunlun would definitely do so.

At this point, Liu Dezhu said, "They asked if I knew your subordinate. I didn’t answer. They said it didn’t matter, they found a phone at the scene. It seems the leader of the criminals received a mysterious call before dying, and they couldn’t trace the source."

At this moment, Liu Dezhu’s gaze was still wandering around Qingchen’s feet. In fact, Kunlun had also mentioned finding blood footprints, suggesting that the killer’s feet were severely injured.

But he noticed that the mysterious big shot in front of him walked without any abnormality, so it seemed that the big shot wasn’t really on Laojun Mountain at the time.

Moreover, the big shot indeed had such a ruthless subordinate.

"Why did they ask you about the call the criminal received?" Qingchen asked.

"Oh, they said the fingerprints were added later. Normally, a phone has hundreds of fingerprints, but this one only had a dozen or so," Liu Dezhu said, "They thought the call was answered by the killer."

Usually, a phone that is frequently used will have countless fingerprints.

But at that time, Qingchen was on the verge of fainting and didn’t have time to create so many fingerprints.

Sure enough, his small action couldn’t fool the smart people in Kunlun.

Liu Dezhu said, "Kunlun talked to me to ask what the mysterious call was about and who the caller was. They suspected that this person’s appearance led Wang Yun to become an insider. This person might be hiding behind the criminals and could collude with others with ill intentions in the future, causing bigger problems."

He continued, "Big shot, why don’t you ask your subordinate? I can tell Kunlun the content of the call?"

Qingchen didn’t respond to this and said, "Is there anything else you want to say?"

At this point, Qingchen felt he couldn’t get any more useful information.

Liu Dezhu was stunned for a moment and then burst into tears, "Big shot, are you asking me to say my last words?"

Qingchen countered, "Do I still need to keep you? Do you think you have any value to stay?"

Liu Dezhu almost knelt down, "Big shot, I brought all the gold bars in my mouth this time, and I promise to work hard in the future. Please don’t kill me, I’m still useful! I can be your target, you can use me to attract time travelers from all over the country, I can be your puppet to win their favor!"

Liu Dezhu knew very well that even if the big shot killed him now, he wouldn’t bear any legal responsibility, and no one in the outer world would know how he died!

Qingchen stood up, "It’s too late for you to say these things now. Remember, you will always pay a price for your mistakes. Although you’re just a second-year high school student, you haven’t experienced the cruelty of society or the dangers of the world, but since you’ve entered this game, you must understand some rules."

With that, he stood up and walked out as if nothing had happened.

The young man was silent, and Ye Wan and Lin Xiaoxiao seemed to understand and walked into the detention room, carrying Liu Dezhu into the black box where Qingchen had undergone his test.

Of course, this was just to scare him.

Liu Dezhu couldn’t die, but he had to be punished.
