Defeat the system! Kiss my little monster!

Pei Du spent more than five or six hours in the lab. He had too many experimental projects, and his main purpose in returning this time was to solve the problems of the new lab technicians.

As for the toxins in the roses, Pei Du has already found a targeted antidote based on their effects. He has been inhaling these toxins for at least three or four years, and the treatment and relief process will likely take a long time.

The commander, eager to survive, encouraged Pei Du, saying, "After you complete the mission, I will give you a brand new and intact body. These things are nothing to you."

Pei Du was completely unmoved by its empty promises: "How much more yang energy do you want from me?"

"I don't need your yang energy points. If you succeed, you'll become my first disciple, and I'll help you for free," Gouqie Toushi said seriously.

Pei Du was skeptical of its words, and its cowardly existence was beyond belief. So far, Pei Du had not seen any superpowers in it.

Ling Yu's white ball will also be attacked by high-intensity electric current, and it will only live a life of cowardice...

Pei Du didn't think much of it. After finishing his work, he prepared to return to the villa. Nearly 90% of the surveillance cameras in the villa were broken, and reinstalling them would be a huge project, so Pei Du didn't plan to fix them for the time being.

There were few people on the road leading to the car, only the occasional sound of Pei Du's footsteps. His working hours differed from those of ordinary lab workers, and he avoided the rush hour.

Pei Du walked into the garage, passing several black cars. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a figure flash by quickly in the rearview mirror of one of the cars.

Pei Du paused slightly, turning his head. The garage was as silent as ever. The small overhead lights cast a white glow, and all the cars were parked in their original positions, with no sign of human movement.

Pei Du withdrew his gaze, continuing to walk forward while silently asking the cowardly survivor, "Who's over there?"

It barely survived by detecting the surrounding energy fluctuations. The data on its body kept changing, showing a yang energy value of up to nine digits.

Pei Du: "..."

This time, Sheng Shixian didn't wait for Pei Du to return before going crazy; he broke free of his chains and ran out to go berserk.

"Isn't his leg injury still healing?" Pei Du asked.

The creature, its body shimmering with blue light, said, "It's all better now."

Pei Du: "When will it be better?"

"The day after you bathed him."

Pei Du was shocked: "Then why didn't you tell me?"

"?" "I'm innocent for clinging to life. You didn't even ask me."

Pei Du: "..."

He didn't speak to the cowardly man again and walked straight to his car.

It's unclear what Sheng Shixian's intentions are in running away; he hasn't shown any unusual behavior so far. But Pei Du has never told him where his workplace is, yet Sheng Shixian managed to find it on his own.

Pei Du opened the car door, but failed to start the engine twice, causing him to frown.

He got out of the car to check and found that four of his tires had been punctured by something.

Pei Du: "..."

To live a life of ignominy: "..."

Pei Du looked behind him, where the figure hiding in the shadows remained motionless, like a mural, as if no one existed.

Pei Du sat back in the car, took out all his documents and stuffed them into his briefcase, his expression remaining unchanged throughout the entire process.

A subtle fragrance drifted into Pei Du's nostrils, causing him to furrow his brow and slow his movements as he reached for something.

It's similar to the previous rose scent, yet different; it's an extremely light and subtle fragrance.

Pei Du lowered his head again to smell the interior of the car. He hadn't noticed it when he first got in, but now that he opened the door and smelled again, he could finally detect its presence.

It spilled all over the car's interior: seats, steering wheel, rearview mirrors, sun visors...

They really went to any lengths.

Pei Du's lips curled up in an ambiguous way. He packed his things and left, casually closing the car door behind him.

"You're just trying to survive, so I won't ask who killed me, but can you tell me how many?" Pei Du had previously only suspected one person, but now he had some doubts.

Knowing his whereabouts so well, and going to great lengths to apply perfume to him. If it's the same person, Pei Du admires their ability to monitor him so comprehensively and without blind spots, and then quickly create a modified perfume to use again.

In contrast, Pei Du suspected that the two were cooperating.

One provides information, the other provides implementation plans.

A question mark appeared on the blueboard, and it chuckled in a child's voice: "Oh dear, you finally realized it."

Pei Du lifted his eyelids: "Not just one, but two people?"

Whether it's about living a life of ignominy or not is debatable.

Pei Du's eyelashes trembled, and he whispered, "...Three?"

"Oh, you're such a clever idiot!" The creature, which had been spinning in the air, stopped at three on its blue tag. "This system has examined the factors that led to your death. You died at the hands of three people."

Pei Du: "..."

It must have been tough on them. Pei Du, a minor character, required three people to expend so much effort and go to such lengths to send him to his death.

"But you're already very good! The sixteen people who died before you didn't even know how many murderers there were. You're the first person to ask me about the number, so I have to say you have a lot of potential!"

Pei Du didn't say anything more. His car was unusable, and he didn't plan to take a taxi for the time being.

He walked past the edge of the garage and saw the shadows hiding around the corner also move, shifting their bodies further inside to conceal themselves.

Pei Du pretended not to see it, walked through the corridor, and decided to walk back after a short while.

Give Sheng Shixian a chance, and also give him plenty of time to go home and pretend.

The streetlights were already on, casting long, deep shadows from the trees. Pei Du walked along a less crowded road, and it was clear he was distracted, stopping every now and then to look at the goods in the roadside shops.

Pei Du stopped in front of a shop window. Inside was a men's suit, a classic style, black jacket with a red bow tie, and not expensive.

Pei Du watched for a while, then chose a good angle to look to the side, where the reflection of the person behind him was cast on the glass.

Wearing a beret, the lower half of his face was completely covered by a mask. When Pei Du stopped, Sheng Shixian also found a place to rest, with his hands in his pockets and leaning against the wall. Although his face was not visible, his figure was tall and straight, and he was quite a handsome young man at first glance.

She actually followed him all the way.

“Living a life of ignominy, Sheng Shixian doesn’t like An Jia, but he likes me now.” Pei Du turned around, his voice calm, “In the future… I will make him like me even more.”

"Mmm." The creature, barely understanding, nodded. "So?"

As Pei Du continued walking, the figures behind him also began to move. One in front and one behind, separated by a sparse crowd, and running parallel to the cacophony of sounds.

Pei Du looked up. There were only a few stars scattered across the night sky, and no moonlight. Not even the edge of the moon was visible.

"That's why I want to live to be a hundred."
