Chapter 909: Zi Shu's Past

The place is over twenty kilometers from the blast site.

Zi Shu set up a safe point here.

After returning to 'home', Zi Shu furrowed his brows and let out a long breath.

A gust of wind blew in, bringing a chill.

Zi Shu stood up and closed the window.

At that moment, the door was knocked.

"Come in!"

Zi Shu said lightly.

The door opened, and a close subordinate entered.

"Boss, the defenses are already set up." the subordinate said with an embarrassed smile.

Zi Shu nodded and opened a bottle of alcohol.

This safe point was originally a small gathering venue set up by a wealthy person.

Not only was the room decorated extremely luxuriously, but it also stored many fine wines.

Zi Shu likes good alcohol.

The subordinate said: "Boss, although we didn't take out the Ten Divine Servants, we obtained important information."

As long as we report it upward, it's also a great achievement.

Zi Shu curled the corner of his mouth, handed the cup to the subordinate, and poured him a cup of alcohol.

The wine liquid, as red as blood, rolled in the cup.

"Cheers!"

Zi Shu clinked his bottle against the subordinate's cup, then tilted his head back and gulped down most of the bottle of red wine with a 'glug-glug' sound.

The subordinate flattered: "Boss, you really have a great capacity for alcohol."

Having said that, he finished the alcohol in his cup.

Then Zi Shu laughed and said: "What important information?"

The subordinate said somewhat surprised: "The Ten Divine Servants who caused chaos in Japan actually have something to do with Lin Feng!"

This is very important information.

If this news is made public, Lin Feng's image will completely collapse.

By then, more people will stand on our side.

Actually, we should have guessed this earlier.

The Ten Divine Servants possess a large amount of high-grade enhancement agents and have cultivated a large batch of elite enhancers.

In this world, only the Lin Family, who created the enhancement agent, can do this.

Previously, this was just many people's speculation; now this information has been confirmed.

Zi Shu pursed his lips: "What's this so-called important information? The world now is different from before."

Now, whoever has the stronger fist earns others' respect.

Lin Feng is already strong; if others also learn that he caused the chaos in Japan,

I think many who originally wanted to oppose him will lose heart.

Moreover, after the news spreads, we might even gain the support of ordinary people.

You don't even look at what kind of place this is.

The subordinate stared blankly.

Yes!

This is Japan, and we have long had an irreconcilable feud with our Guo Jia,

It's either you die or I perish; it's just a matter of time.

Zi Shu fell silent for a moment, then said: "Lin Feng's strength truly surprised me."

I watched his training videos when he was an instructor for the Special Police Brigade, and I thought he was just an ordinary enhancer.

Over these years, even if he's gotten stronger, he should still be weaker than us, right?

What was the result? Hehe!

"Boss, what should we do next?"

The subordinate frowned and asked.

Zi Shu said: "Do you know why I like to close the windows?"

The subordinate shook his head.

Zi Shu looked at the tightly closed window and said: "Because I am the only one among the Twelve Zodiac Animals who came from a humble background."

While the other eleven are all sorts of second- and third-generation elites.

When I was a child, my family was poor; I couldn't even eat enough, let alone stay warm.

What I hate most is winter; every day, the cold wind would whoosh into the house.

The thin blanket covered in patches could not fend off the cold at all.

Many times after being woken by the freeze, I found the window had been blown open by the wind.

That broken window, why does it always get blown open by the wind!?

In the middle of the night, I would repeatedly get up to close the window, and over time I developed this habit.

Hearing Zi Shu's account, the subordinate widened his eyes, doubting he had heard wrong.

The experiences Zi Shu described could hardly have happened in this era, right?

Even if one doesn't eat enough, staying warm is never a problem.

He remembered the garbage room outside the residential area, where he often saw clothes and quilts thrown away by others.

Zi Shu patted his subordinate's shoulder and said, "That was over fifty years ago."

"Ah~"

The subordinate looked at Zi Shu with a face full of surprise.

Zi Shu said, "Don't look at me now being in my thirties; actually, my real age is already sixty-six."

I became young only after enhancement.

Before enhancement, I was a disabled person, with no children.

The villagers all mocked me, looked down on me.

Finally one day, a child threw a stone at me, hitting my forehead and cursing me.

At that time, there was no one around, I strangled that child to death.

Then I buried him under the bed at home, digging a five-meter pit.

Every day sleeping on the bed, I felt not the slightest fear.

Later I left that village and became a wandering vagrant.

That day I was staying under a bridge, staring wide-eyed at the female internet celebrity livestreaming nearby.

Suddenly, a small truck stopped beside me.

Then I was seized and taken away.

When I woke up, I found myself rejuvenated, and my disability had been healed.

Moreover, I had become the Rat among the Twelve Zodiac Animals.

"As it turns out...... as it turns out you......"

The subordinates didn't know how to address Zi Shu.

This person's experience before our eyes is truly...... enviable.

Over a thousand people who underwent enhancement, whether voluntary or forced, only twelve succeeded.

And Zi Shu is such a fortunate one.

Truly heaven's favor, from an old vagrant he leapt to become the Rat among the Twelve Zodiac Animals!

The difference in status can be said to be as vast as heaven and earth.

"So...... I am a murderer, right?"

Zi Shu said with a smile.

The subordinate hurriedly said, "Boss, even if the higher-ups knew about this, they would pretend not to know.

You must know, your current status is extremely important.

The other eleven combined cannot compare to you!"

"Do you know why?"

Zi Shu asked.

The subordinate shook his head and said, "Boss, we only know you are very formidable; as to wherein you are formidable, that is a secret we dare not inquire into."

Zi Shu said, "Telling you is no problem; I possess the ability to read others' brainwaves.

Therefore, no matter who is in my presence, as long as they think, I will know their thoughts."

The subordinate was first stunned, then his face showed terror.

Afterwards, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.

"Wine, there is poison in the wine!"

The subordinate stared at Zi Shu, saying with a painful expression.

Zi Shu nodded and said, "I also have another superpower, that is, to create poison.

Actually, my ability to read others' thoughts, so far, besides myself, only you know."

After saying that, the subordinate, while reciting the scriptures, breathed his last.

An Enhancer actually died of poison just like that.

Zi Shu smiled faintly.

He then took another bottle of red wine, picked up the cup the subordinate had just used, poured it, and slowly began to sip.

He didn't dislike it at all.

"Amazing!"

Suddenly, a man's voice sounded from outside the door.

Now, Zi Shu looked terrified.

Because the owner of that voice was all too familiar to him.

In order to study Lin Feng, although he had never met Lin Feng in person, he was extremely familiar with Lin Feng's appearance and voice, more familiar than with his own face.

Zi Shu threw down the cup, turned and ran.

The room had not only the main door, but also a back door he had secretly remodeled for escape.

"Bang~"

Zi Shu had just stepped out the back door when Lin Feng kicked the door open.
