Chapter 1

Listen to the howling night wind!

In a dark corner, Chen Hang checked the time; it was already 2:40 AM.

At this hour, most people were asleep.

Even the most bustling area of K City, "Brilliant Street," seemed somewhat deserted, with few pedestrians.

However, there were always some places that were exceptions, where the night was even livelier than the day.

For example, the high-end entertainment venue in front of Chen Hang — the Richman Leisure Club!

The Richman Leisure Club was a comprehensive entertainment venue that included a bar, KTV, hotel, and bathhouse, among other entertainment facilities. The building, which stood thirty-seven stories tall, was the largest and most luxurious entertainment and leisure center in K City.

Of course, the club also operated a casino and sex industry, but these could not be openly advertised.

Those who could enter here were naturally either wealthy or influential, the upper echelons of society.

Sitting in a corner outside the club, Chen Hang silently lit a cheap cigarette, his eyes fixed on the club's entrance, watching the rich and powerful come and go without a moment's rest.

He had been staking out for nearly four hours.

Thinking about what was about to happen, Chen Hang felt a bit nervous and involuntarily reached into his chest.

By the moonlight, it could be seen that he was holding a knife!

A brand new, gleaming knife!

That's right! The purpose of Chen Hang's vigil tonight was to kill!

Chen Hang was certainly not a psychopath who enjoyed killing; he was originally an ordinary person from the lower strata of society, living a simple life. If he hadn't been driven to a dead end, he would never have taken this irreversible path.

"Damn it! Petitioning? Even if you report to the central government, it won't do any good! Zeng Jianjun is my father, and your mother being hit by me was her own fault. I gave you a few ten thousand yuan for medical expenses, and you're still not satisfied? Want to make a big fuss? Want to expose it? You're asking for death! If you keep bothering me, I'll have you killed! Get lost!"

These words were said to him a week ago by Zeng Hua, who was stepping on his face.

Zeng Hua! The one who had driven him to this dead end.

A month ago, Zeng Hua, driving under the influence, crashed into the sidewalk, hitting Chen Hang's mother, a dishwasher at a small restaurant, and leaving her in a vegetative state.

When Chen Hang learned that his mother had been hit, he was stunned on the spot.

Since he could remember, Chen Hang had never seen his father; his mother had raised him with great hardship.

His mother was the most important person in Chen Hang's life!

When he rushed to the hospital, the doctor told him with a heavy face, "Your mother's condition is very dangerous. She suffered a severe head injury, causing intracranial bleeding. The blood clots are pressing on some of the brain's nerve tissues, leading to insufficient oxygen supply to the brain. If a craniotomy is not performed in time, there is a risk of death..."

"However, a craniotomy is a very complex and advanced surgery with significant risks. I must tell you the truth: the chances of a successful surgery... are less than 10%..."

Chen Hang's mind went blank, and he didn't even know how he got home.

Because the accident site was crowded with people, and the driver, Zeng Hua, was also injured and taken to the hospital, Chen Hang found him.

But Zeng Hua only compensated him with 50,000 yuan, which was far less than the 260,000 yuan needed for the surgery.

Chen Hang searched among his relatives and friends but could not raise the 260,000 yuan, and could only watch helplessly as his mother's body was buried!

He was not willing to accept this and reported the incident, running around to seek justice.

However, the development of events was completely out of Chen Hang's expectations!

At the traffic police station, the surveillance footage of Zeng Hua hitting Chen's mother was missing. The explanation given was that the surveillance camera in that area had been broken for a few days.

The police station also refused to handle the case, stating that traffic accidents did not fall under criminal cases.

What Chen Hang found most unexpected was that the people who had witnessed the entire accident refused to speak up, and no one was willing to testify for him.

Chen Hang felt like a headless fly, bumping into walls everywhere!

He had lived for 23 years, and only at this moment did he realize how powerless he was!

At the same time, he also gained a new understanding of the complexity and darkness of society.

But he still harbored a glimmer of hope, believing that there would always be justice in the world.

He wrote a real-name complaint letter and submitted it to the municipal government.

But instead of a just official appearing, Zeng Hua, with a group of people, stormed into his cheap rental apartment, beat him up, and threatened him.

At that moment, Chen Hang felt a deep sense of humiliation and the idea of killing someone was born.

After calming down, Chen Hang found out information about Zeng Hua's family.

His father, Zeng Jianjun, was the Deputy Secretary of the K City Municipal Committee and the Chief of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, one of the top five most powerful figures in the K City Municipal Committee.

His mother, Zhou Xiaofeng, was the Deputy Chief of the Municipal Culture Bureau, and her father was the Deputy Governor of G Province.

Seeing this information, Chen Hang felt a chill and understood why he had encountered so many obstacles.

There was no hope of getting justice!

So, he decided to risk his life and fight!

After all, he had nothing to lose, being poor and only having his dignity left.

Clenching his fists, Chen Hang made this decision without hesitation.

This was the entire process that changed Chen Hang's fate.

...

Snap —

Suddenly, someone patted him on the back, startling Chen Hang, who was staking out.

"Handsome, do you want to have some fun? Just 200 yuan, and I'm yours for the night!"

A heavily made-up woman said with a seductive smile.

Chen Hang thought to himself (So she's a prostitute!).

Not far away was a red salon, and it seemed that one of the prostitutes from there had noticed him loitering and came to solicit him.

Frowning, Chen Hang coldly refused, "Not interested!"

"Oh! Handsome, my skills are great!" The prostitute, not giving up, saw that no one was around and tempted him, "How about I give you a blowjob right now? Just 100 yuan, what do you say?"

Just as Chen Hang was about to refuse, a loud, arrogant laugh came from the entrance of the Richman Leisure Club.

"Mr. Hua, please walk slowly!"

"Haha... hiccup, I... I'm not... not drunk!"

Chen Hang had long memorized the voice of this beast. Turning his head, he saw his enemy right in front of him.

He saw Zeng Hua, flanked by two women in revealing clothing, with a group of sycophants surrounding him, looking extremely arrogant.

Thinking of his mother, Chen Hang felt a surge of blood to his head, his face filled with murderous intent. He pushed the prostitute away and quickly approached Zeng Hua.

At that moment, Chen Hang had only one thought in his mind!

Kill this damn scoundrel!

The prostitute fell to the ground, naturally angry, and was about to argue, but the next scene frightened her so much that she couldn't even speak.

Finally, Chen Hang approached Zeng Hua, quickly drew the knife from his chest, and rushed toward Zeng Hua, stabbing him.

Plop —

The sound of the knife piercing flesh was clearly audible, followed by Zeng Hua's scream.

Ah —

The piercing scream drew everyone's attention.

Chen Hang noticed that due to his nervousness, the stab was not in a fatal position and probably wouldn't kill Zeng Hua.

He pulled out the knife, intending to stab again, but it was too late.

He had only one chance, and he had missed it.

Two young men grabbed Zeng Hua, pinning him to the ground.

"Call the police, call an ambulance!"

Someone nearby shouted in shock.

"Ah! It hurts like hell, kill him, kill him for me."

Screams, curses... in less than 10 seconds, the entire scene was in chaos.

Chen Hang, held down by two men, saw that the situation was hopeless and roared like a wild beast in frustration!

"I won't accept this!!!"

...

Suddenly, the world seemed to freeze.

If not for seeing it with his own eyes, it would be impossible to imagine the strangeness of this moment.

It was as if a movie had been paused.

Zeng Hua's face was contorted in pain...

The manager of the club still had a worried expression...

The two women in revealing clothing were wide-eyed and screaming, but no sound came out...

A leaf was strangely floating in the air...

Everyone and everything was motionless, completely still, as if frozen in time, like a photograph.

It was as if time had stopped, and the Earth had ceased to rotate.

Chen Hang was stunned!

The bizarre scene filled him with shock!

What followed was even more shocking: he found that his body was unresponsive, completely unable to move, except for his eyes, which could still move...

What the hell is going on?

A cold voice echoed in Chen Hang's mind:

"Resentment has reached the critical point, conditions met, evolution system activated..."
