Chapter 38 Letting Go - Settlement Rewards

The newspaper the next morning published the news that "the Vansroy Society was attacked, and the leader "Iraq" woke up after a brief coma, but suffered mild amnesia.

But it only made it to the fourth page, because the previous pages began to be filled with more exciting news than this:

"Mr. Quinn, the great philanthropist, sadly passed away yesterday due to a malfunctioning pacemaker."

But just when people thought a "good man" in a city had passed away, even more explosive news spread on the Internet:

"It turns out that Mr. Quinn is the godfather of Chicago's underground forces and the leader of the largest underground society in Chicago!"

However, as soon as the news came out, major mainstream media and the Internet came out to refute the rumors, claiming that "this is a frame-up and slander by the hacker organization Dedsec."

Then 10 minutes later, another network-wide link appeared, triggering another big scandal:

"The current mayor is suspected of murdering his ex-girlfriend, Ms. Rose Washington."

The link is a video that clearly captures the violent quarrel between the mayor and Ms. Washington over the mayor's corruption issue.

Subsequently, the mayor accidentally strangled Ms. Washington to death and fled frantically out of the hotel. Then a group of special staff began to clean up the scene and destroy traces.

There is also a link behind the video, which details the black mayor's corruption record, which is very clear evidence.

Then, in the afternoon, news broke that the mayor had died suddenly.

And Ms. Charlotte was nominated at rocket speed...or put forward a motion to participate in the election.

As for what really happened behind the scenes, it has nothing to do with Xie Yuan or Aiden Pierce. He has been completely "excluded" from this matter.

Everything was arranged by the Samaritans. As a reward for his help, "agent" Anthony Wade was thanked. From then on, he could successfully use a "human" clone to learn about this complex human society.

Xie Yuan did not ask about the specific process. He only knew that this top-like syringe was a technological creation from an unknown world, and contained nanorobots.

Also having nothing to do with the current situation is the person in front of me: Maurice.

"You are of no use at all."

This was the first thing Xie Yuan said after seeing Morris again.

"Brother, I told you, their abilities are endless, even if I can..." Morris, who was about to repeat this statement impatiently, suddenly froze.

In front of him was a pda, which contained a piece of news: "The great philanthropist Quinn died today due to a malfunctioning pacemaker." After he digested the information, Xie Yuan pulled out the second article, "

The scum of the world, the leader of the southern society, Lucky Quinn is suspected of a large number of vicious human trafficking incidents!"

The second message came just one day after the first message, but within one day, a so-called "good person" in a city turned into a scumbag.

The media is more ruthless than a bitch, but this also illustrates the fact: "The death of Lucky Quinn heralds the end of his deterrence, and at the same time, chaos in the underground world is about to come."

"It's not far away." Xie Yuan took back the PDA, gently tapped the forehead of Morris, who was tied to the chair, and shook his head regretfully, "If you are willing to tell me the matter in advance, maybe you can learn from it.

Earn a lot of money."

"I gave you a chance and you succeeded." Xie Yuan patted Morris's head depressedly, "Ah! I gave you a chance but you failed!"

"So, is it time?" After learning that his biggest nightmare had passed away earlier than him, he suddenly smiled.

This is the smile of relief.

"Yes, it looks like you are ready." Xie Yuan took out the knife from his belt and patted Morris on the face with the blade, "Aren't you afraid of death now?"

"No, I really want to live," Morris's expression showed his desire for life, but like a swipe of a lighted match, it was all lit, "but I really don't dare to hope."

"Do you regret what you did?" Xie Yuan walked around behind him and asked.

"Can you count the people you've killed?" Morris asked rhetorically.

"It's hard to say." Xie Yuan suddenly put the knife under Morris's neck, without scratching it, but the sharp and cold blade pressed against Morris' skin, still making the tortured Latin man tremble and dare not move at all.

It's just that the knife hasn't cut it yet.

"From today on, you will have died once," Xie Yuan declared in Morris's ear, his voice majestic and firm, "I gave you this life of yours. You can do whatever you want after you get out.

Don't do bad things.

Otherwise, I won’t catch you again, I will take your life directly! Do you hear me?”

"Listen...I heard it." Maurice, who had escaped from death, nodded with joy but cautiously...for fear that his throat would be wiped if he made too big a move.

"Also, let me give you some motivation in life," Xie Yuan stretched out his hand behind Morris's back and waved it in front of his eyes to attract his attention. Then when he paid attention to his hand again, he suddenly flipped through a photo of life.

The photo only shows a middle-aged woman who has obviously been tortured and has scars all over her body. Although her face is somewhat pretty, the confusion and despair in her eyes can make people cry.

Morris immediately trembled when he saw this woman. This was his wife who was captured and sold! He didn't expect that he would see her one day.

"Where is she?" If there wasn't a knife on his neck and his body was tied up, he would have wanted to jump up and grab Xie Yuan and ask.

"There is an address on the back of the photo. You can pick him up at any time." Xie Yuan, who was lying behind Morris, comforted him, put the photo on his lap, and slowly put down the knife...

"Just not now!" Just as Morris was crying with joy, Xie Yuan suddenly pressed the Latin man's carotid artery with slight force, and after a while Morris fainted.

After confirming that he really fainted, Xie Yuancai used a knife to cut the straps of his tied hands and feet, although he made up his mind to let him go and fulfill one of his wishes.

But it doesn't mean that people will forget the hatred of losing their freedom and suffering in the past few days. After all, safety comes first.

After leaving the safe house, I took a walk while writing a draft text message to explain to the original owner what he had done recently.

Mainly what he did, who he met, and what property he left behind. In the end, he wrote this paragraph: "I tried my best to keep your sister's family of three, and for the rest, I can only follow my instructions.

Do it according to your preference.

The matter has come to this, I hope you don’t blame me.”

After finishing the call, he put his phone in his pocket and silently chanted "Return". Xie Yuan felt that his consciousness was being pulled out.



"Congratulations to the newcomer on successfully completing his first mission!"

In a pure white endless space, a young man wearing a very futuristic colonial costume, but in tatters and shape, was receiving a task evaluation.

Xie Yuan opened his eyes, and after seeing himself returning to the pure white space, he touched his whole body and breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally, the serious injuries on his body were repaired, and he finally earned his life."

He breathed a sigh of relief, but then he frowned. This was only the first world, there were two in total!

After calming down, Xie Yuan immediately opened the universal tool in his left hand and accepted the task evaluation:

Main task: copy the ctos1.0 system and copy the Bellweather improved algorithm (completed)

Rating: Excellent (with auxiliary help)

Side mission: Ensure that none of the protagonist Aiden Pierce's family members are missing (completed)

Defeat the boss (completed)

Angels and Demons: Become an angel on the street—a punisher of private law or a protector of evil (Complete, Angel Route.)

Love line: unfinished.

Rating: Average.

Evaluation after the return of the original protagonist: pass.

Overall evaluation: a-. Since you have not received an "S" evaluation and cannot receive special rewards, all world income will be handed over to the system in accordance with regulations.

"Alas! Sure enough, we can only get some leftovers," Xie Yuan sighed.
