Chapter 440 - 440: The Real Zhang Yuanyan (Part 2)
“All! Why did I run? I should have let myself be caught and taken there to look.
I heard that there’s a prison in the capital that’s especially tight with its security. Aneurin Hall built it, but I didn’t even get to take a look!”
“Master Zhang.” Tang Susu didn’t know what was going on. Even if the other party said that he had killed someone in plain language, she couldn’t hate this person.
Instead, she felt a little sympathetic.
Just how much pressure was he under to have killed someone?
Tang Susu rendered Zhang Yuanyan speechless addressing him. After a while, he said in a hostile voice, “Alright, if you want to kill me or cut me up, we can talk about it tomorrow. I’m going back to sleep, so don’t disturb me!”
“You!” Eighth couldn’t believe it. Just what was the source of his courage?
He then looked at Tang Susu. “What’s wrong with him?”
“I can only say that he is the one with the talents, so I don’t mind calling him Master Zhang.”
“But he killed someone…” Especially before the apocalypse. At that time, the legal system still existed. According to the current regulations of the country, anyone who violated the law before the apocalypse must be slain, especially the ones who were on death row.
“Then we’ll see him again tomorrow. If he runs away, kill him. If he doesn’t run away, it means that he’s turning himself in.”
“Or…” Tang Susu didn’t understand their rules. “Go ask the others.”
Eighth suddenly understood what she meant. “You want me to look for the boss, right? I’ll pass on your message to him!”
Tang Susu turned around and left.
Eighth chuckled and thought of something. He quickly went to Zhang Yuanyan’s room to retrieve their game console.
He remembered he had reached level 28 at the end, which meant he had a high chance of winning against Tang Susu!
However, just as he was about to step in, he saw a stranger standing in the room with his chin slightly raised and wiping the corner of his eyes.
This was… Zhang Yuanyan’s true appearance?
And was he crying?
“What are you doing here peeking at me, you brat?! Get out!” Zhang Yuanyan, who instantly transformed back into a middle-aged man, roared.
Eighth had mixed feelings about it. He quickly grabbed the game console and ran.
However, before he could fully comprehend the scene, he almost choked when he saw the two game consoles!
LV29, Lines 380!
Score: 999999. Maxed out!
Tetris rate (ratio of four rows to total rows), 80%!
In other words, most of the time, she would eliminate four rows of blocks simultaneously, which was the highest number of rows that could be achieved in this game. Just how quickly was she able to analyze her situation to reach 80%!!
Many people couldn’t even achieve 60%!
Was she still human? Why didn’t she take part in an international competition when she was already at the professional level and played against him instead?
Eighth had forgotten entirely how arrogant he was when he provoked her in the first place.
However, when he met Tang Mingchu on his way back, he was surprised and ashamed to admit defeat.
“I’m sorry. I apologize for my previous arrogance and short-sightedness. You can tell me a way to make it up to you.”
The reason Eighth apologized was partly because he recognized his mistake, but more so because he acknowledged Tang Susu and the others’ talents. Otherwise, he would be an example of someone who refused to acknowledge his mistakes.
Tang Mingchu sized him up. When he noticed the game consoles in his hand, he smiled.
Eighth felt that such a gaze was like a public execution. He almost couldn’t help but hide the game console behind his back.
“A way to make up for it, huh? Leave Zhang Yuanyan with us.”
Eighth was stunned.
“What? Didn’t you want to make up for it? You can’t even agree to something this simple?”
“No.” Eighth was about to explain when he thought of something and took off his communicator to show him. “Zhang Yuanyan is yours.”
On the screen, Eighth reported the news to someone and asked how to deal with it. That person replied in a quick message: “Leave him to her.”
Tang Mingchu’s cheerful face was instantly gone. “Isn’t that your mission? Your boss can’t differentiate between public and private matters and he’s obsessed with only his own romantic relationship. Why are you following such a person?”
“Nonsense!” Eighth said in an annoyed tone. “We know better than you what kind of person our boss is! He had shown none personal feelings or desires when doing anything. This is the only time and probably the last time, too! He has always taken care of us and protected us. Simply put, without him, none of us would be here and the entire Metahuman Group wouldn’t even exist! Not to mention that it didn’t affect our official matters.. Even if it did, we would do as he asked of us!”
