449 She Is 518! (2)
In the end, he arrived in China and went to Sea City because 518 had once said that her hometown was there.
He ate 518’s favorite spicy hot pot, hoping to feel her presence…
Then he discovered his biggest enemy, Shen Ruojing, who was the creator of the No.5 Neurotoxin.
Killing Shen Ruojing was his lifelong wish.
He chased after her all the way and had even set up a trap. He wanted to watch as Shen Ruojing fell into a hopeless situation. It seemed that as long as she was unhappy, everything would be worth it…
But now, Chu Cichen told him that Shen Ruojing was 518?!
How could that be? How was this possible?!
Dugu Xiao’s eyes slowly turned red, tears blurring his vision. This man who seemed so wicked and cunning actually revealed a childlike grievance at this moment.
“518, you’ve fooled me so badly!”
“…but it’s good that you’re still alive.”
He took a step toward her, but his arm was grabbed by Chu Cichen. “What else do you want to do?”
“I’ll go and explain everything to her! I’ll tell her it’s all my plot!”
Chu Cichen sneered at him. “Will the reporters believe you?”
Dugu Xiao was stunned.
Since he had chosen to use public opinion to punish Shen Ruojing, he had figured out the rules of public opinion in the country.
The reporters wouldn’t believe him…
Although Shen Ruojing had admitted that she was the inventor of the No.5 Neurotoxin, she was still released without being charged. The reporters would definitely be focused on this point and make a big deal out of it.
Dugu Xiao stood still.
The more he tried to explain, the more he would be misunderstood, perhaps even accused of being bought by the Shen or Chu family because his words were inconsistent.
Suddenly, Dugu Xiao thought of something and his face darkened. “This is bad!”
Chu Cichen realized something. “What else have you done?!”
As he spoke, several black cars suddenly stopped outside the door.
The first person to jump out of the car was holding a phone as he ran over to Dugu Xiao and said, “Boss, we’re here. Don’t rush us!”
Dugu Xiao angrily roared, “I’m not rushing you. I wanted to tell you to bring them back! Don’t let them show up!”
His henchman hesitated for a moment before he turned around and said, “…it looks like it’s too late.”
As he spoke, the doors of the cars were opened at the same time, and a group of civilians poured out of the vehicles, mixing with the crowds. Among them were elderly people, two or three-year-old children, and women…
These people didn’t pay any attention to Dugu Xiao and went straight to the reporters, shouting, “Did you develop the No. 5 Neurotoxin?”
The reporters turned around in confusion. Upon seeing the crowd of more than twenty people, all of them were dumbfounded. One reporter asked, “Who are you?”
An elderly person stepped forward. He was trembling as he said, “My son was a policeman who was poisoned when he caught a criminal. He died unjustly!”
A woman holding a three-year-old child also stepped forward and said, “My husband offended his boss and was poisoned to death with this toxin!”
The three-year-old child immediately began crying and shouting, “I want Daddy, I want Daddy…”
A scruffy-looking man with a beard and a bottle in his hand angrily said, “My wife was about to get married to me, and we went abroad for a trip. After that, some bad people harassed her and she resisted, so they fed her that poison… she has left me forever!”
…
These over twenty people came forward one by one and described the pain of losing their loved ones. After that, they all looked at Shen Ruojing and said, “You are a heartless businessman and scientist who makes money by developing toxins! Why are you released without charge?”
“You are guilty! Why did you produce the toxin?”
“If there were no toxins, they would not be able to kill people so easily!”
“Those who kill and use toxins should indeed be put to death, but you, the creator, should die an even worse death!”
…
An elderly man threw down his crutch and sat down on the ground, weeping bitterly. “My son, my poor son! He only died because he wanted to catch that evil woman…”
The woman comforted her child, wiping her tears with her sleeve. “Don’t cry, don’t cry, look at this woman. This woman is a bad person. She is the one who killed your dad!”
The man took another sip of his drink and said, “Juan’er, Juan’er, you’re no longer in this world. What’s the point of me living?”
…
The reporters fell silent one after another. They then took out their cameras and aimed at the scene, recording the tragic situation before them.
Shen Ruojing also stood there, her fragile body trembling as she looked at the people in front of her.
She had always known that the Doom organization had been using the No. 5 Neurotoxin to eliminate dissidents and even sold it to ordinary people to kill others. She also knew that there were many, many people who died because of the No. 5 Neurotoxin…
They were sons of fathers, husbands of wives, fathers of sons, wives of husbands… these ordinary people that played various roles in their lives.
For years she had been researching the antidote for the No. 5 Neurotoxin. But after a long time, she discovered that there was no cure for it. She had no way to make up for what had happened…
As Shen Ruojing was thinking about this, her calf suddenly hurt. She lowered her head and saw that the two or three-year-old child had somehow run up to her and was kicking her. “Bad person, bad person, give me back my daddy!”
“Give me back my son!”
“Give me back my wife!”
“…”
Amidst the questioning voices, a bottle suddenly flew in the air and hit Shen Ruojing’s forehead with a bang. However, she didn’t feel the pain or see the blood flowing down her forehead that blocked her vision.
All of a sudden, a scene of bloodiness appeared before her…
