Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 955 Those unexpected endings are not the end itself
Information never waits for a reaction:

"At the top of the logistics center, there is a very strange person who has done many things against you, whether it was the kidnapping of my partner in the warehouse or the placement of the Z Group's internal eyeliner, it was all done by that person. "

"What I am doing now is also forced by him."

The eyeliner inside the Z Group...

Chen Yan heard such bad news, but unexpectedly, he was not surprised.

Who is that person?

"I don't know who he is—I don't know his name, I can't confirm his gender, I can't confirm his specific identity and rank, I was only threatened by him unilaterally, and I did something for him."

"He's targeting you, Chen Yan. Even the cooperation between the William Adams Group on the Turing chip and the Z Group this time was to a certain extent facilitated by him."

"You need to be alert."

Chen Yan asked:

"Why are you telling me this?"

Li Shoucheng's answer is simple:
"Don't think too much, it's just a gift."

Chen Yan didn't believe it at all.

Li Shoucheng seemed to have guessed his thoughts:

"I think you will definitely agree to the deal between us, and because of this, I will tell you about the existence of this person, so you will not fall into the trap he wove for you."

It is rare for Chen Yan to react so quickly:
"What trap? Is the marriage contract arranged by the governor for me?"

Only Li Shoucheng's last voice came from the phone.

"Then, Chen Yan, see you again."

The phone is hung up.

Chen Yan looked at the darkened phone screen, still very resistant to such a transaction.

He has always been entangled in his heart. For a person with no morals at all, is it really necessary to insist on "transaction integrity"?
This person was originally immoral, and now he is discussing with me based on moral standards, why should I talk about morality with him?

Because I'm moral - I'm probably moral, for me, business is all about integrity, he sold me the information, I put in the effort to help him get free, it's totally fair , and even the ones where I earn more benefits.

Since it is fair, why am I so unwilling?
Probably because I think that a villain full of crimes should not just go unpunished like this. He must be rewarded for his evil deeds, rather than being redeemed by those evil deeds themselves.

What went wrong?

It was my fault - I wanted the fruits of the evil he had done - the files, I wanted the files, so I set him free.

I am the source of my inner resistance and unwillingness!
I am the decisive factor in causing the culprit to escape justice!
Thinking of this, Chen Yan suddenly realized.

So he went to the center console, called up the control panel of the motor speedboat, and caused its engine to overload for a moment, causing it to explode.

Li Shoucheng would never have dreamed that the engine used by the motorized speedboat he controlled was not manufactured by the Imperial Company, and it did not meet the production safety regulations at all, let alone the product quality standard. It was just Chen Yan's toy.

The sea breeze seemed to bring a blast that almost disappeared. Chen Yan looked up, and through the glass of the ship building, he could only see the boundless darkness under the moonless night.

'Damn, my bottom line is so fucking flexible...

I'm really not a good thing...'

Chen Yan has always known that he is not a good person, but he has never had such a clear understanding of "So I am really not a good person" like this moment.

Chen Yan received the moral condemnation of violating "trading fairness and credit", and at the same time gained the sense of moral accomplishment of "releasing the murderer full of evil".

The latter quickly overwhelmed the former, so Chen Yan's heart was no longer heavy.

He looks at the phone.

There was a new recording on the phone's recording page, which was a conversation between him and Li Shoucheng. He was silent for a moment and deleted the recording.

Li Shoucheng died just like that. '

He recalled what Li Shoucheng had done in his mind, and for a moment he felt something was suffocating in his heart.

Although he had witnessed the whole process of Li Shoucheng's destruction, he still had an inexplicable feeling—he felt that Li Shoucheng's death was too simple, too fast, too...without warning.

'It was as if something had pushed his death...as if someone had created the conditions for him to set him on the path of destruction. '

'Who is it? '

'Who could it be? '

While thinking, Chen Yan drove the boat towards Days Island.

While meditating, he suddenly realized something strange:

'Li Shoucheng left Days Island because he was afraid of Baer Darkrod's suppression.

But Li Shoucheng held the evidence of all the illegal acts Barr Darkrod had committed over the years. Why didn't he use this information to threaten Barr Darkrod to save his life?
If it is true as he said—he has the records of everything Bar Darkrod has done over the years, the actions in these records are obviously impossible to cover up, especially when the Internet age has developed to the current stage, even if public opinion It was impossible to kill Baer Darkrod, but it was enough to guarantee Li Shoucheng's life.

It is not uncommon for online public opinion to guide social affairs. Could it be that Li Shoucheng can't see it?

Obviously not.

What's more... Li Shoucheng is now a private entrepreneur. He has used the Z Group to clean up his crimes, and he is no longer a mere gang member.

He had even appeared at the merchant reception in the logistics center—it was impossible for the logistics center to let an apparently hopeless closing official kill such a person of value.

What went wrong...'

Chen Yan realized that he had entered a dead corner of thinking with no room for turning around.

So he emptied his head and changed another angle:
'From the perspective of the relationship between Li Shoucheng and Bar Darkrod—the official and his informant, the relationship is undoubtedly close enough in a certain sense, and this closeness is based on the fact that the two have worked together— —They jointly did those immoral things that violated public order and morals, and the two were tied together by these things.

According to the conversation Li Shoucheng let me hear before—according to the conversation on the hot pot table, the reason why Baer Dacrode wanted to kill Li Shoucheng was to [clear up the old criminal groups on Days Island].

How could Baal Darkrod wipe out his informants?

Is it just to destroy your own criminal evidence?
But he had already paid the nomination certificate to the logistics center with his family's life—he had already proved his loyalty, and such loyalty was valuable enough, so he didn't need to destroy any criminal evidence!

What's more, he must have led a large part of what his informants did.

What Li Shoucheng said [because of the crimes of the past, the gang was suppressed, so gang members like him should be killed], this causal relationship is not established!
In this regard, Li Shoucheng is lying! '

Chen Yan quickly confirmed the first clue: [Li Shoucheng lied about "Baer Darkrod wanted to kill him"], this is a fact.

Chen Yan couldn't turn his head.

'But, [the gang members were killed because of the crimes of the past, so gang members like him], the causal relationship of this mistake was told to me by Li Shoucheng himself through the conversation on the hot pot table!
This means that he is deliberately guiding me and letting me know that Bar Darkrod wants to kill him not because of the crimes he has committed.

So, why did Bar Darkrod want to kill Li Shoucheng? '

Thinking of this, Chen Yan was shocked, and connected the fragments of clues together in his head, and came up with an incredible guess:
'Based on the relationship between the two of them, the criminal incidents and secret information that Li Shoucheng knew must also be known to Bar Darkrod. '

"Now that Li Shoucheng is dead...disappeared, Bar Darkrod will definitely track down his whereabouts, and there are cameras everywhere on Days Island, Bar Darkrod will definitely know that I brought him out of the sea. '

'Will he find clues to Li Shoucheng's death from me? '

Chen Yan didn't know.

But his intuition told him that Baer Darkrod would definitely not give up easily.

"Probably yes... because there must be an irreconcilable conflict between the two of them, and this conflict is probably the reason why Baer Darkrod wanted to kill Li Shoucheng. '

'After Li Shoucheng disappeared, the conflict shifted to me—the conflict shifted to me who [sent] Li Shoucheng out of Days Island. '

"In fact, it is also true. The information I obtained is not only a threat to Bar Darkrod, but also a fatal threat to some people on the first island chain... Bar Darkrod will definitely want to Those materials were completely destroyed—no matter what Li Shoucheng's motives were, there is no doubt about this matter. '

The ship was swaying amidst the turbulent waves, and in the dark night, in Chen Yan's field of vision, there appeared a huge thing with shining stars all over its body—it was a mechanical hive.

When the ship docked, Chen Yan suddenly had a glimmer of understanding.

He did not leave the ship building, but turned on the searchlights around the ship.

When the berth of the ship was illuminated, Chen Yan saw that his ship was surrounded by densely packed soldiers with guns.

Baer Darkrod was standing at the spiral staircase, with his big tail swaying in the night wind behind him, as if he was quietly waiting for him.

The understanding in Chen Yan's heart became clearer.

He glanced at Swarm and said:

"Remember what I told you?"

Swarm nodded:
"Can't kill."

This was the only thing Chen Yan had ever told him.

Chen Yan looked at Ogami again.

The latter asked:
"Do you need to catch that guy on board?"

Chen Yan pondered for a moment before whispering:

"It's not good, he made such a grand scene to greet me, and he didn't attack me directly, which shows that he is a decent person.

He's a decent man, and I'm going to treat him as a decent man. "

In the surveillance footage, Bar Darkrod holds a loudspeaker in one hand and a mobile phone in the other.

His hand holding the loudspeaker was hanging down, and the hand holding the mobile phone was close to his ear.

Then Chen Yan's cell phone rang.

"Mr. Chen."

Bar Darkrod stood under the ship, looking through the night sky illuminated by the searchlights, watching the dark interior of the ship building.

"I hope you can cooperate with the work."

Chen Yan pretended that he didn't know anything:
"I do not know what you're talking about."

Baal Darkrod says:

"The documents in Li Shoucheng's hands, please pass them on to me."

What the hell is in those files?
Chen Yan realized that the contents of those documents might not be as simple as Li Shoucheng said.

"Master Darkrod, I don't want to intervene in the dispute between you."

Chen Yan first expressed his attitude.

"But you have to explain things to me."

Through the side glass of the ship building, Chen Yan stared at Bar Darkrod, who was also looking up at the ship building in the cold wind at night.

The other party seemed to have already made all the psychological preparations, so when telling these things, he didn't pause for a short time to think.

"Some things are far from as simple as you imagined, Mr. Chen."

"You just need to hand over those things to me, and then, you will continue to do your business, and the logistics center will provide you with help. Everyone is safe and there will be no storms."

Barr Darkrod had no intention of explaining to Chen Yan at all!
Synaesthesia did not tell Chen Yan the exact news, but Chen Yan suddenly realized something.

In order to verify his guess, he looked around the high-piled wharf where the ship was moored.

It is only less than 9 o'clock in the evening, and the Days Island pier, which is usually bustling even at 12 o'clock at night on weekdays, has become quiet, and the position where the ship's searchlights can shine seems to be a vacuum, except for Baer Darkrod Except for his soldiers, not even a ghost can be seen.

Chen Yan gradually understood something.

"It's not a big deal, is it, Mr. Darkrod, this is just a small splash of dirty water in the history of the development of the logistics center. There is nothing to say or explain."

Baer Darkrod's battle strength was in the cold wind, and the rising night wind could not blow the brim of his hat.

"Yes, Mr. Chen, it's just a trivial accident. It happened in the past, happened now, and will happen in the future."

Chen Yan looked at the black figure in the searchlight.

And you, the maintainer of the order in the logistics center, Lord Bar Darkrod, you used to be the creator of the order on Days Island, and now you are the maintainer of the order on Days Island. Fight to maintain order on Days Island, and do whatever it takes.

"If I don't give it."

Baal Darkrod has remained patient until now:

"What reason do you have for not giving?
Mr. Chen, this was originally a stupid divorce scheme. You have been completely bound to the interests of the logistics center. Why are you so obsessed with insisting on that ridiculous justice? "

Listening to Baer Darkrod's words, Chen Yan's synaesthesia helped him straighten out the complicated and difficult emotions hidden in everyone's words, so he was so entangled in his heart that he tried to solve them all—

Li Shoucheng has always been involuntary, even at the end of his life, he never thought of making a deal with me - all his actions are just to complete the task of a certain [unknown person] at the top of the logistics center.
