Free Web NovelChapter 382: Chapter 265: The Final Revenge (Part 2)
Su Mo waved his hand lazily and said, "It doesn’t have much to do with the Future. She’s very mature mentally. When the data came back, she told me there was no need to dwell on it."
"I just feel that you’ve had a tough life from childhood to adulthood, hiding hatred in your heart for so many years without anyone knowing or listening. If you suppress it for too long, it’ll really break you."
"So I thought I’d make you cry, let you cry out all those repressed things, and you might feel a lot better."
"You... you..." Qi Ling was taken aback, "Have you read too much cheesy street literature?"
Su Mo said righteously, "You said it yourself, you cried quite freely. Tell me, did it work?"
Qi Ling giggled, resting her face on Su Mo’s shoulder, nodding gently.
Su Mo let out a sigh of relief, "It’s good that it worked, otherwise I’d really be a bad example."
Qi Ling looked at Su Mo’s profile, carefully asking, "What would you have done if I hadn’t apologized to you then..."
Su Mo shrugged, "I wouldn’t do anything. If you don’t apologize, that’s it. I wasn’t really angry, so it doesn’t matter. I even want to thank you."
Qi Ling asked somewhat bewildered, "Thank me? Thank me for what?"
Thank you for letting me know the story of Eden Garden, for giving me a shock that lasted for a long time and was hard to calm down. Su Mo thought about this.
He patted Qi Ling’s little head, "Let’s not talk about this now. Don’t forget you still have something to do."
Qi Ling: "Hmm? What is it?"
"Revenge." Su Mo led her to stand up, revealing a meaningful smile, "I’ll take you to complete the final act of revenge."
...
"Mmm! Mmm mmm!..." In the darkness, Luo Mingsheng struggled desperately, but his limbs were firmly bound, unable to break free.
The long darkness had taken away his sense of time’s passage; he didn’t know how long he’d been trapped here, nor what the situation outside was like now.
"Tap, tap, tap..." Suddenly, the clear sound of footsteps rang out.
Luo Mingsheng struggled even more desperately, trying to catch the person’s attention.
He succeeded; the footsteps came towards him, finally stopping in front.
Suddenly, he felt a lightness on his head; the hood that blocked his vision was lifted off, and the light poured into his eyes, almost blinding him.
As his eyes gradually adjusted to the light, his blurry vision began to focus, finally seeing the scene in front of him clearly.
It was an abandoned factory, the overhead lights casting dim, flickering illumination, outlining the shapes of various ruined machinery, exuding a sinister atmosphere.
Dust hung in the air; cobwebs swayed in corners. From the graffiti and haphazard scribbles on the walls, it was clear this was in the Border District.
Good news: someone’s here.
Bad news: it’s Su Mo.
Hellish news: Qi Ling is behind him.
Seeing Qi Ling, intense terror filled Luo Mingsheng’s eyes, and he cried out in a muffled voice, struggling even more violently, oblivious to the rope cutting into his wrists.
Su Mo tore off the tape from Luo Mingsheng’s mouth, teasing, "Old acquaintances meeting, say hello, eh?"
Luo Mingsheng screamed at the top of his voice, "Help! Help me!!!"
As he shouted, Qi Ling also started yelling, even louder, "Help!!! Help!!!"
This left him stunned, frozen in place.
The calls echoed and overlapped in the factory, finally dissolving into the silent night, with no response coming.
Having finished shouting, Qi Ling shot Luo Mingsheng a threatening smile, "Keep shouting, we’re at the Border. Even if you shout until dawn, no one will care."
Seeing that calling for help was useless, Luo Mingsheng pleaded with Su Mo, "Captain, Captain, you must save me!"
Su Mo retorted, "Why should I save you?"
Luo Mingsheng cried with desperation, "Because I’m an Edge Mercenary! I’m your comrade! Think about it, if I die, and people know you’re willing to let your companions die, who will respect you? Who will dare come to the Edge?"
Su Mo: "Oh, I was just about to tell you about this."
He pulled out a document from his pocket and threw it onto Luo Mingsheng’s lap.
"Two hours ago, I held an internal management meeting and decided to officially dismiss you."
"The reason is that in your past career, you were involved in anti-human research, exhibited poor character, concealed your resume, refused to report even after questioning, deceived the captain, and entered the office with your left foot first a few days ago."
"In other words, starting two hours ago, you’re no longer an Edge Mercenary. Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me."
Luo Mingsheng broke down, sobbing, "Captain! We’ve worked together, you can’t just watch me die!"
Su Mo: "Oh hey, guess what, not only will I watch you die, but I’ll come over and give you another kick. Die, you anti-human relic!"
After saying that, he kicked and shattered Luo Mingsheng’s front teeth.
Luo Mingsheng wailed with blood in his mouth, his forehead hit the ground, crying to Qi Ling for apology: "I was wrong, Zero... I’m sorry to you and Xiaoqi... I’m sorry to those kids..."
"I was just a project leader... The Mind Plan was Miyata Junren’s idea! I only followed his orders... he’s the real culprit! Killing me doesn’t mean anything! Please, please let me go..."
Qi Ling smiled but spoke coldly, "I don’t care what role you played, I don’t care who’s the real culprit. You were involved in Xiaoqi’s death, so you have to die."
Luo Mingsheng shouted in panic, still trying to beg, "Zero, Zero, listen, I have a family now, my son hasn’t reached adulthood yet. He’s never been involved with my previous career; he’s an innocent child, lively and cute."
"If I die, his childhood will be ruined! You know very well how it feels to have a ruined childhood... what I did was indeed terribly wicked, but you shouldn’t inflict this pain on others, right?"
Qi Ling replied in a tone so calm it was cold-hearted, "I don’t care about what happens to your family; I just need you to die. Anything else can be dealt with after your death."
"Maybe one day, seeing your son alone and lonely because he lost his father will make me feel sad, but that’s a matter for after you’re dead. Right now, you don’t need to say anything; you just need to die, die right now."
Luo Mingsheng fell into total despair, screaming with all his lung, trying to flee, only to be pinned down by Su Mo’s foot.
Su Mo handed his gun to Qi Ling, "Your enemy, you do it yourself."
Qi Ling didn’t take the gun, thoughtfully pondering, "If he’s killed with just a shot, that seems a bit too swift."
Su Mo: "Oh? What’s your suggestion then?"
Qi Ling watched Luo Mingsheng’s breakdown silently, thinking for a long time.
Suddenly, the corners of her mouth moved.
Unlike her previous cold, sinister smile, this time she revealed a malicious grin. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
She gestured for Su Mo to come closer, whispering mischievously in his ear, "Let’s have a contest, we’ll take turns kicking him in the balls, see who can kick him to death."
Su Mo shouted loudly, "That’s too perverted! Kicking with feet is disgusting!"
Qi Ling, somewhat innocently, lowered her head, "Then what should we do..."
Su Mo picked up a piece of steel rod from the ground, chuckling wickedly, "Of course, we’ll use this to swing."
The two exchanged smiles, like two mischievous devils, one big and one small.
...
An hour later, dawn broke slightly, and homeless vagrants, living rough, rose early, hoping to find good things before others.
Outside an abandoned factory in the Border District, several homeless people rummaged through a pile of trash like treasure chests.
One vagrant, disappointed in not finding anything good, decided to head inside the factory to see if there was anything of use.
He hadn’t been inside for long when his companions heard a scream coming from the factory.
The vagrant stumbled out of the doorway, his face ashen, legs clamped together, muttering, "Oh my God... Oh my God... It’s terrifying..."
His companions mocked, "Clamping your legs like that, did you see a female ghost?"
The vagrant shivered, legs tight, "Go in and see, there’s a dead man inside, it’s terrifying."
"Is this your first day at the Border? What’s the big deal about a dead body? Look at your cowardly self." The companions swaggered inside.
Soon, startled shouts echoed from the factory.
They stumbled out, each clamping their legs tightly, "Oh my God... People these days are so twisted... What group did this? Someone’s been beaten to death here..."
