Chapter 153

(Received notification today: the fictional setting is incomplete. Per requirements, I must rectify this. A certain place in the book has been changed to the Investigation Bureau to avoid censorship. Police have been changed to Investigators.)

The apocalypse is approaching, and chaos is erupting everywhere.

Places like Myanmar are almost impossible to dismantle from within. While Whatever Longxia is vast and rich in resources, strange events within Whatever Longxia are also emerging one after another.

There are even rumors that Whatever Longxia has established a 749 Bureau to deal with the various anomalies before the apocalypse.

However, due to the failure of the promotional film, the public does not know much about this bureau, nor do they have much confidence in it.

Regardless, various strange phenomena are only increasing in every location.

The little girl's name is Jiang Qing. In this area on the outskirts of Yuncheng, she is the greatest source of anomalies.

She is very clear about how strong her abilities are, because she is a person chosen by "God."

She has seen that existence who, like herself, also appears to be a little girl.

"Your future is limitless. I need as many characters like you as possible to curb certain people from changing the fate trajectories of higher levels."

"I acknowledge your evil."

These were the words Jiang Qing heard from that girl who was the same age as her.

Although she looked the same as her on the outside, her speech was pretentiously mature, which made Jiang Qing feel very annoyed.

However, when she tried to attack, she was easily sealed by the other party, and she realized that the sequence the other party possessed was far more powerful than her own.

Since then, Jiang Qing has been obsessed with "playing her part."

All the "Challengers" who came here were almost all killed by Jiang Qing.

There were only two exceptions.

Right now, Jiang Qing is watching surveillance footage from the park; this is not the surveillance footage organized by the unarmed personnel there, but footage sent to the director's phone.

In the video, a man relies on brute strength to forcibly dismantle the entire park's armed forces.

Jiang Qing frowned at first, because her toy nest had been raided, which made her very unhappy.

But soon, she seemed to have discovered a new, interesting toy.

"According to what you said, those three members of the Investigation Bureau are also Qualified, right?" Jiang Qing asked.

The director of the orphanage is named Fang Zhizhou. He looks gentle, refined, and easygoing.

He is the kind of person who, even if you went around saying he committed domestic violence, would still be perceived as someone who couldn't possibly be a bad person after meeting him in person.

He is extremely loyal:

"Yes. In the cycle before last, the three of them discovered our secret, but in the end... they were turned into toys by you. You were a bit annoyed that the timing for turning them into toys wasn't quite right."

"You formulated a plan, intending to play the role of a little girl kidnapped by human traffickers, guiding them to save you, but in the process, you would ruin their reputations and fill them with despair and hatred for the world."

"In the last cycle, you successfully implemented this plan."

"Per your request, I have found many people with stories."

"These people include migrant workers chasing debts, annoying brats, couples whose families are on the verge of collapse, and internet celebrities who got pregnant before marriage... However, this time, I found more material. If you need to experience the fun of the last cycle again, I think your train will have even more rich stories~"

Jiang Qing bit her finger, clearly liking it, but she still shook her head:

"Director, I've changed my mind. Although I already experienced the content of this cycle last time, I still really want to continue experiencing it."

"Watching three people who, like me, were chosen by the apocalypse gradually get broken and develop despair for this world is truly very interesting."

"I'm thinking, I want to see the three of them waver in the ideals they insist upon, and then have the three of them no longer be friends, no longer trust each other..."

"I want to break them all three little by little. So, playing it one more time is indeed very nice."

"But for this cycle, why not change the flavor first? Look, don't the three of them have abilities... then let them become my toys and deal with this newcomer."

"I think with the three of them there, I will definitely be able to figure out his background."

Using three Investigation Bureau agents who uphold law and order to kill a hero who raided a scam park—this cycle's content also made Fang Zhizhou feel it was very interesting.

He is a Corruptor; in the process of cycle after cycle, he has long since become a pure troll, just like other Corruptors.

It is just that he has been implanted with a bottom-layer logic of "always be loyal to the master."

But this does not affect Fang Zhizhou's Corruptor experience.

Corruptors cannot use violence.

The Qualified cannot know about the cycles.

Now, the two colluding almost compensates for each other's shortcomings.

Most importantly...

After cycle upon cycle, he is increasingly convinced of one point—his master, this little girl in red, Jiang Qing, is a true innate Corruptor.

She is too evil; after several cycles, Fang Zhizhou admits that in terms of the degree of human corruption, he is not as good as Jiang Qing.

This is the true evil girl. And although Jiang Qing can look very childlike, sometimes when she laughs or cries, she makes people feel very childish...

But in reality, Jiang Qing's heart is like that of an adult.

Facing such a holy body of an innate Corruptor, Fang Zhizhou is willing to become her slave.

A large group of elite troops from the city has already sealed off the entire area.

Outside the orphanage, everything looks normal, but from time to time, one can see infrared laser sights sweeping across.

"We must control everyone as quickly as possible before the other side notices, and we cannot let them realize we are using the children as hostages."

"According to what the three of you said, at this time, they will arrange for all the children to go to the cafeteria. So let's ensure the safety of the cafeteria first."

Qin Feng listened to the captain's words and said:

"Um... Captain, why don't the three of us go help? Actually, the three of us have some abilities."

"We can deal with some particularly tricky existences."

On the other end of the walkie-talkie, the captain smiled:

"Alright, I know you Yuncheng Investigation Bureau agents are capable; your director has praised you more than once, but Old Qin, don't fuss."

"Leave this small matter to us."

Qin Feng didn't know why, but he felt a sense of unease in his heart.

This orphanage definitely has problems; under his and his partners' investigation, it can be 100% confirmed that this place is related to the scam zones in Myanmar.

Human trafficking also exists here.

But he still couldn't understand how it was being operated.

However, the elites from the city are all sharpshooters capable of handling border conflicts.

Each one of them can be considered battle-hardened... surely, with full equipment, nothing will go wrong, right?

Qin Feng was still very worried. He was always anxious about various things.

But facing the elites from the city, he couldn't say much.

Old Tai said:

"Brother Feng, are we really not going to help?"

Qin Feng said:

"The three of us have abilities related to combat. If a fight breaks out later, we'll step in then. Discipline first."

Tang Yi thought the same, and he nodded:

"Okay, Brother Feng, we'll listen to you."

By coincidence, all three of them awakened their abilities at the node near the apocalypse.

All three were very happy; compared to ordinary people, they, who serve the people, actually need these abilities more.

All three were equally confident that they could enter the battlefield the moment the fight started.

This mission involved multiple criminal gangs, so the place they could have taken down by themselves... had to go through the process, bringing in the elites from the city to help.

The three waited patiently.

At first, the three were whispering to each other about recent strange events.

The youngest of the three was Tang Yi, a top student who came here to gild his resume; his hometown was Jiangcheng.

Tang Yi said that a heavy rainstorm had occurred in Jiangcheng, and many strange things happened during the storm, and the Jiangcheng Investigation Bureau was also very busy.

Tang Yi said that a distant relative of his had been killed, dying in the rainstorm.

The other two also listened with great interest.

But before long, Qin Feng frowned.

"Why... is it so quiet?"

Once he said that, Tang Yi and Old Tai also realized something was wrong.

It had been over ten minutes... there was no information, no intelligence on the walkie-talkie.

The world seemed to have fallen into a silence; one could hear the chirping of insects and the sound of the wind, but there were no human voices.

On the other end of the walkie-talkie, it was dead silent; not a single one of the dozen elites from the city spoke.

Qin Feng said:

"Something's wrong, there's a problem here. Let's go, follow me and take a look!"

Qin Feng picked up his gun, and Tang Yi and Old Tai also picked up theirs. The three looked toward the orphanage in the distance and discovered a strange mist shrouding it.

Qin Feng immediately said:

"Put on your gas masks, be careful."

The other two nodded, quickly put on their various equipment, and then headed toward the destination.

Along the way, the three kept calling out softly on the walkie-talkie, but on the other end... there was no response.

Soon, the three arrived at the orphanage shrouded in thick fog; this strange mist was not toxic.

Outside the orphanage gate, Qin Feng saw a strange scene. Because they were close enough, even within the thick fog, they were within effective visibility range.

So Qin Feng saw—

A row of "toys" wearing black tactical uniforms, resembling members of the Yuncheng Special Operations Department, standing neatly at the orphanage entrance.

These toys were about half the size of a normal person. They were like the exquisite dolls in a toy store.

They all had strange smiles on their faces.

If one looked closely at the faces of these toys, one would find they were exactly the same as the faces of the elites from the city.

"What's going on... they made toys in advance? What kind of method is this?" Tang Yi was puzzled, and he felt a bit creeped out inside.

It was as if something terrifying was crawling on his back.

Qin Feng's pupils constricted and then dilated, because he suddenly discovered...

There was a scratch on the sidearm of one of the toys.

That was the captain's sidearm, and the scratch had been caused a few days ago when the captain was executing a mission.

Qin Feng was shocked; how could the people at the orphanage know such details?

A terrifying thought was born.

"These things... are not toys, these things are real people!"

Once this thought sprouted, the surrounding scene quickly changed.

In unison, all the toys turned around, pulled out their guns, and aimed them at the three.

Qin Feng said:

"Old Tai!"

Although Old Tai didn't understand the situation, the moment he was targeted by the gun barrels, he immediately extended both palms.

The air seemed to have some subtle fluctuations, making Old Tai, Qin Feng, and Tang Yi all appear blurred.

Bang!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Gunshots rang out continuously; Tang Yi was stunned because he saw that in the airflow in front of Old Tai, real bullets were appearing.

After these bullets passed through that layer of airflow, their speed became incredibly slow, making it very difficult to get close to Old Tai.

Because of this, Tang Yi was convinced that the guns on these toys were real.

"Hell, what is going on here?" Tang Yi couldn't help but exclaim.

Qin Feng said:

"Retreat! Retreat! This place is strange! These toys are not toys! These are the elites from the city; they were turned into real toys by someone!"

Qin Feng knew that as an investigator, saying such things sounded like nonsense.

But Old Tai and Tang Yi did not doubt it at all, because all three of them had truly obtained "abilities."

They all knew very well that anomalies existed. Those rumors that had been occurring frequently lately were likely not made up, but real.

It was just that the elites from the city turning into toys... was truly too absurd.

Even Qin Feng and the others, who had already realized that the world was undergoing some kind of change, felt it was absurd.

Old Tai and Tang Yi were extremely terrified inside. Qin Feng was also afraid, but he quickly realized the key—

"I understand now! I understand now!" Qin Feng said.

Old Tai supported with both hands, holding off the fierce firepower by himself; all the bullets approaching him were incredibly slow.

This made pure firepower suppression unable to cause any harm to Old Tai.

Slow-motion field.

This is a powerful ability; although still in the early stages, Old Tai could only slow down things that tried to approach him and harm him.

But there is no doubt that this thing is much stronger than a bulletproof vest.

And Old Tai could feel that his ability would continue to improve, and he would master more ways to use this ability.

Tang Yi shouted:

"Brother Feng, what did you understand?"

Qin Feng said:

"It's the toys, they turned people into toys! Their method of moving people is to turn them into toys! No wonder we couldn't find them... because we wouldn't suspect toys!"

Is this superpower a bit too perverted?

Turning people into toys, transporting them to a certain place, and then turning them back?

Indeed, if they were toys, they could be transported openly.

But this is too evil. Tang Yi gritted his teeth; the more terrified he was, the less he was willing to succumb to fear, and he forced himself to generate some fighting spirit.

However, Qin Feng saw it:

"Retreat first! Yi, let's leave here! We don't know the method by which their ability takes effect, nor do we know how to avoid this kind of ability; let's take the intelligence back first!"

Tang Yi quickly calmed down; Brother Feng was right. In the current situation, being reckless would likely result in them becoming toys too.

The three began to retreat. With the help of Old Tai's methods, the firearms couldn't harm them at all.

But just as the three were about to return to the car...

Qin Feng saw a strange scene again—

Inside the car, there were three toys.

They were toys in the shape of children, and the car door was open. Qin Feng immediately became vigilant and looked around.

Looking at this, he was also startled; dozens of child toys had formed a circle.

One of the toys, a girl wearing red clothes, said:

"Uncle, where are you going? Are you ignoring us?"

They were surrounded!

Qin Feng wanted to draw his gun immediately, but he suddenly thought, if these toys... were all living people, all being controlled against their will, wouldn't he be killing people?

He hesitated.

This was not a fair duel, because the gap in strength between the two sides was huge.

Normal Qualified people would only gradually master their abilities after the apocalypse descended.

But Jiang Qing was different; she was already a person blessed by "God."

The surroundings began to become quiet; Qin Feng, Old Tai, and Tang Yi soon began to have many emotions appearing in their eyes.

Strange Sequence 103: Memory Implantation.

Strange Sequence 72: Obsession Awakening.

Strange Sequence 55: Mischievous Heart.

The possessors of the three strange sequences, plus the help of the Corruptor and the blessing of "God," made Jiang Qing the absolute master of this area.

Mischievous Heart can turn people into toys; once the conversion is successful, they can be wantonly manipulated by the sequence possessor.

And Strange Sequence 103, Memory Implantation, is the method for dealing with the director, making him loyal to her.

But the reason why the Memory Implantation sequence is ranked so far back is that memory implantation is very difficult.

However, after turning into toys, it wouldn't be difficult; once they become toys, the effects of the other two sequences can be easily displayed on the toys.

This is the build construction between sequences.

Obsession Awakening uses sound as a medium, making it easy for people to fall into certain emotions, thereby reducing mental defense and increasing the success rate of Mischievous Heart.

The three sequences complement each other, leading to the birth of the most vicious Toy Empress.

Qin Feng's body had already begun to change at this time. In terms of texture, it began to look more like a toy.

And in his mind, there was the crying of his wife and the crying of his child.

"Qin Feng, don't you love us anymore? Do you not even want your own child? Do you know you are still a husband, a father!"

His wife's reproach came, that cold and helpless questioning, making him feel as if he had returned to a certain day in the past.

"Sorry... I am a foolish person; in this life, I might only be able to play one role well."

Qin Feng once had a friend who was doing anti-narcotics work on the border; this friend eventually sacrificed himself heroically.

But death was not the most tragic ending. Later... this friend's family members were targeted by drug dealers, and some terrible things happened.

Qin Feng was afraid that he would have such a day too, but he loved this job.

Human birth is meaningless because one will eventually die. People find meaning in the process of living...

This job was Qin Feng's meaning.

He felt that he could only balance one between doing his job well and being a good father and husband.

Before his friend's incident, Qin Feng had always been nagged and complained about by his wife because he couldn't balance work and family.

And after his friend's incident, and even his family members were affected, it gave him a deep shock, so Qin Feng made a decision—divorce.

This decision made many people scold him, saying that since he wanted to dedicate himself to work, why did he get married in the first place? Didn't you harm that girl?

Qin Feng wanted to say that sometimes... it takes a few years to find that goal to fight for for a lifetime, and sometimes, some meanings might only be understood after starting a family.

However, Qin Feng didn't say it in the end; he also felt that they were right to scold him, so he never talked back.

All these years, he had been living very frugally, just thinking... if he sacrificed one day, his money could be left to his ex-wife and child.

It was a kind of compensation.

At this very moment, Qin Feng's consciousness was collapsing bit by bit; he seemed to hear the scolding of countless people.

You selfish man. There are so many people in this world who are heroes; what does it matter if there's one less of you? Who needs your protection? It's just your self-indulgence!

Not only his own child and wife, but even the leaders of his unit, his colleagues, and those he had criticized were all attacking him.

If this were reality, Qin Feng would straighten his spine and say, "I have a clear conscience, because although I haven't had my own family all these years, I have saved countless families."

But this is the power of the sequence.

As his body gradually turned into a toy, his spirit was gradually devastated, and his memories were distorted bit by bit, Qin Feng was about to be unable to hold on.

The second one about to be unable to hold on was Tang Yi.

Tang Yi's hometown was in Jiangcheng; he was a proper top student, and in fact, coming here... was just to gild his resume at the grassroots level.

But Tang Yi was neither arrogant nor impetuous, didn't look down on anyone, and Tang Yi was also the youngest and most promising of the three.

Coming to the Investigation Bureau in the borderlands, he never had any "superior" thoughts; he went on missions very frequently, and every mission was done very well.

He also got along very well with every colleague in the Investigation Bureau.

Tang Yi admired Qin Feng very much; although Qin Feng might still be two ranks lower than him when he reached the end of his career, Tang Yi felt that Qin Feng had an extremely capable aura.

He was efficient, flexible in mind, and the only reason he hadn't been promoted was because of his personal reputation.

People who are too insistent on principles find it difficult to be smooth in their work. And capable people are often used as swords, not as seals.

Tang Yi knew Qin Feng's strength very well. Of course, they truly became close friends because after a case ended, the three of them got drunk at the dinner table and actually revealed their inner thoughts.

That time, the three discovered that they weren't the only ones who had mastered "superpowers."

Such a gathering was naturally a very low-probability event. Once such a low-probability event occurred, as participants in the event, they would naturally marvel at the magic of opportunity and fate.

Just at this moment, Tang Yi was also experiencing the darkest moment of his life.

He remembered that when he was a child, he particularly liked to show off his talent.

When he was a child, he was that kind of "other people's child."

His heart was full of superiority, and many times he looked down on those whose grades were worse than his.

He also remembered that once when he was a child, he went to a distant relative's house, and there was a little girl in that family, who seemed to be called Tang Rui.

At that time, when both parents mentioned the children's academic performance, he fiercely despised that younger sister.

When he was young, Tang Yi was always arrogant because he was handsome, had a good family background, and a good mind.

It was later that he slowly realized his shallowness. People are always growing slowly.

But now, he was trapped in the arrogance and superiority of his youth, feeling the resentment and anger of many people toward him.

He wanted to explain that he wasn't that kind of person... but the distortion of his memory made him realize that he was an even more vicious person.

Old Tai's field was slowly being dismantled. Because his consciousness also began to suffer devastation.

He was actually very young, eight years younger than Qin Feng, but he looked old in appearance and was a person who stuck to his guns. The reason Old Tai became an investigator was simple: because his father wanted him to.

Old Tai's surname was Mao, because his father said that after giving him this name, he would be destined to be an official in the future.

So his real name was Mao Tai.

But he didn't like this name himself, and combined with his old appearance, everyone called him Old Tai.

When Old Tai was a child, he was often bullied, and his father's fruit stand was often visited by thugs.

This also made Old Tai very much want to become an investigator at the local Investigation Bureau to deal with these guys.

Old Tai finally got his wish; he hated evil as much as he hated his enemies, and under his jurisdiction, the local public security was always very good.

It was just that Old Tai had quite a bit of bandit spirit.

Being bullied when he was a child, Old Tai was very tough; facing those hooligans and ruffians, he was more like a hooligan than the hooligans.

He knew one thing very clearly: most of those who do evil bully the weak and fear the strong, so he had to show traits of being "fierce," "vicious," and "ruthless."

Because of this, Old Tai was also the person in the Investigation Bureau who looked the least like an investigator.

Some people said that if Old Tai went to be an undercover agent, no one would think it was out of place.

This also led to the leaders never liking Old Tai.

Old Tai relied on being fierce to survive when he was a child, so he also relied on this set of logic.

He was not an easy person to get close to. But he liked to hang out with Qin Feng because Qin Feng was efficient and also had a bit of ruthlessness.

Last year, Old Tai's father passed away, and not long after the funeral ended, Old Tai went to the vegetable market and encountered a situation of bullying the market and dominating the streets again.

He immediately thought of what happened when he was a child, and combined with his father's death, Old Tai hit someone.

He was seriously criticized for this and almost lost his position; it was only saved because Qin Feng and Tang Yi pleaded for him together.

Later, after a great victory in a case, the three of them revealed their hearts at the dinner table, marveling at this fate, and the three were like brothers.

Just at this moment, Old Tai seemed to hear his father's reproach.

"How can you be like a hooligan! Tai! You unpromising thing!"

Not only his father, but also the mockery of some colleagues in the Investigation Bureau:

"Don't tell me you're an undercover agent sent by the underworld to our bureau?"

"What era is this! You Investigation Bureau agents must have the appearance of agents! Look at you! What a disgrace."

Historically, Old Tai didn't seek promotion, he just wanted to do things for the common people, he just wanted those bad guys who bullied the common people to be severely punished, so he didn't care.

I don't care what you say about me, as long as I know I'm a good person.

This was Old Tai.

But now, under the influence of the sequence power, Old Tai felt... that there seemed to be many dark things hidden in his heart.

Qin Feng, Tang Yi, Old Tai.

These three agents were all having their minds distorted by the power of the sequence at this moment.

Qin Feng only felt that... in the whole world, no one understood him.

Tang Yi fell into the sins of the past, unable to break free, and could not get anyone's forgiveness.

And Old Tai, as if betraying his profession, seemed not like an investigator, but more like a villain.

Their three bodies also began to look like toys.

In the face of strange power, those inner beliefs and wills were all collapsing bit by bit. Distorted memories made them begin to doubt themselves.

"This time, after you deal with that new trouble, how will you dispose of the three of them?" the director said, looking at the three agents whose bodies had already mostly turned into toys.

The director could imagine that these three would be distorted by the "master's" power; no matter how noble a mission they had previously, how great a personality they had, or what creeds and justice they adhered to...

They would all become the master's three dogs.

Honestly, Fang Zhizhou quite admired these three; others almost turned into toys instantly...

But these three were still struggling constantly, every time it was like this.

In past cycles, these three were always turned into toys by the master, but every time, they were the ones who persisted the longest.

In past cycles, Fang Zhizhou had planted bombs and blown up the children in the orphanage, making the three of them heartbroken.

Of course, Fang Zhizhou also witnessed them killing each other, witnessed them completely getting the target wrong, and being teased by the "master."

He also witnessed the three of them being completely distorted and beginning to take revenge on this world.

Sometimes, he would think, if these three, in this area... hadn't encountered him and the master, their abilities might have been developed very well in the future.

The three of them were simply like a glimmer of hope given by heaven to the apocalypse.

Three agents with a sense of justice, who dedicated their whole lives to the common people here; presumably, when the apocalypse arrived, they would also help countless people, and perhaps they would do some sensational things.

But there are no "ifs"...

The three of them were just so unlucky to have met the master.

The three of them also possessed qualifications, but they were different from the master; the master was a person favored by "God."

So the three of them were destined to only be teased by the master as toys. Unlike other toys, only these three toys were teased to the extreme.

In the last cycle, they were brought into the train, and no one knew what was waiting for them in the end.

Now, Fang Zhizhou began to look forward to this cycle—

What kind of behavior the master would perform.

"The three of them always make me never get tired of playing; speaking of which, what Qin Feng cares about most is his family."

"Although he always thought he had cut ties with his family, he always misses his wife and child."

"If his two good brothers personally sent them to their deaths, the expressions of these three would presumably be very interesting. I think I can enjoy it several times~"

"Oh oh oh, right right, I never wanted to distort their memories before, because I wanted to enjoy their despair under their true personas."

"This time... I might be able to distort their memories, do some more interesting things, and then return their memories to them!"

Fang Zhizhou couldn't help but applaud. When it came to being a beast, even he was not as good as this evil girl.

He could imagine that in the later cycles, everyone's life trajectory would be incomparably corrupted.

"But this time, I still have to use the power of the three toys to deal with that newcomer."

After Jiang Qing's words fell, Qin Feng seemed to hear them.

Although most of his body had turned into a toy, at this moment, deep in his heart, he seemed to distinguish what was real and what was fake.

He felt that there was a force interfering with his heart.

And at the same time, when Jiang Qing's evil, cruel, and extremely inhumane "way of playing" was spoken out...

Anger appeared in Qin Feng's eyes.

Not only Qin Feng, but Old Tai and Tang Yi also found a slight control over their bodies at this moment because of extreme anger.

The three of them all began to twist their stiff bodies, attempting to resist Jiang Qing.

Jiang Qing laughed even more happily and crazily:

"Hahahaha, too interesting! You must be very afraid of this way of playing! It will definitely happen for real."

"Even as toys, you are already so angry; I can't wait to enjoy your expressions when the time comes!"

"Hahahaha..."

The laughter full of childlike innocence echoed, but it covered every agent's heart with a layer of fear.

Unlike before, Jiang Qing was always hidden in the depths of the thick fog and had never exposed herself.

This time, Jiang Qing did not hide, because she needed to manipulate these three to deal with the "new element."

Tang Yi, Qin Feng, and Old Tai had always thought that the real person behind the scenes was the director.

But now they knew... that little girl was the most evil one.

How could a little girl have such vicious and inhumane thoughts?

They were shocked by this belated truth.

Qin Feng let out a roar, wanting to break free from the "restraints."

But his roar was eventually covered by the laughter of the children, making the orphanage under the thick fog even more terrifying.

The extremely corrupted evildoer made Qin Feng and the others realize that there are things in this world more terrifying than death.

He didn't want to become a "plaything," even if it meant death.

At this moment, Qin Feng seemed to have made up his mind, and he erupted with astonishing will.

Under the condition that his body's "toy-ification" progress had exceeded 90%, Qin Feng actually moved!

Fang Zhizhou couldn't help but want to applaud; after suffering terrifying mental devastation and memory distortion, he could still maintain his personality!

Too tenacious!

But the more this was the case, the more it made the two corrupted people feel pleasure.

Struggle hard, roar hard, anyway, you can't do anything!

Qin Feng's body was moving bit by bit; he wanted to end it himself at the very end!

Better to die than to become a toy for an evil child.

This was Qin Feng's thought, but Qin Feng soon despairingly discovered... the gun barrel that should have been aimed at himself was aimed at another child toy.

That was a little child.

He recognized that child; when he first came to the orphanage, that child had asked Qin Feng.

"Uncle Investigator, can I become a person like you?"

Qin Feng said at the time:

"Then from now on, protect other children first! When you grow up, you can protect more people."

Qin Feng's eyes were red; both anger and horror were so intense.

His gun barrel was not aimed at himself, but at that child.

"No... don't! Don't do this!"

The children in the orphanage were innocent, especially after knowing that all the toys were turned from real people.

These tentacles were everywhere... some even pierced out from her throat.

Just as he was about to pull the trigger, he closed his eyes.

"Then let's start with a trailer; I think your expression will be even better when you kill your own child!"

Jiang Qing's voice was like a devil's whisper.

Bang!

The gunshot rang out!

At this moment, endless remorse surged from Qin Feng; he didn't dare to open his eyes.

But the next second, what he heard was not the sound of bullets shattering a toy, but...

The painful wail of the director, Fang Zhizhou.

"Ah———!!!"

Jiang Qing was stunned, Qin Feng was stunned, and Tang Yi and Old Tai were also stunned.

In the thick fog, somehow, there was an extra figure. That figure appeared silently, yet as swift as a ghost...

Even Jiang Qing hadn't seen it clearly.

The same childlike smiling face appeared on a man's face.

"I was wondering why the compass suddenly changed direction; so the three of you appeared here. Oh, so you are here too; that's really great."

At first, the man spoke to the three agents, but then he looked at Jiang Qing.

"Don't you remember me? Let me introduce myself; my name is Wen Xishu, a passenger on your train."

Just as the tragedy was brewing, the Bunker player finally arrived at the orphanage.

(End of chapter)
