A Knight's Journey Begins in Faiz

"Um, well, cough cough, let me introduce you all. This is my girlfriend whom I mentioned before, Nagata Yuka."

Upon hearing this, two people on the scene were stunned: Kiba and Mari.

Kiba was unaware of Yuka and Keitaro's relationship, and he was surprised that Yuka had a boyfriend, especially one who seemed so kind. Why didn't Yuka tell him she had such a good boyfriend?

"You little rascal, what good luck you've had."

Jiang Yang grumbled, "To be fair, Keitaro is actually quite lucky, but life is unpredictable."

"Hey hey hey."

With the connection between Keitaro and Yuka, the group quickly became acquainted. Just then, two cell phones rang at the same time.

Jiang Yang and Kiba Yuji exchanged a glance before picking up their phones to answer.

"I am Jiang Yang."

"It was me, I, I killed someone."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yang was taken aback.

"Where are you now? Okay, I understand, I'll be right there."

Jiang Yang hung up the phone and then looked at everyone.

"Sorry, I have to go now."

Kiba also got up to leave.

"Timber yard?"

Yuka could tell that Kiba's expression wasn't very good.

"It's Kaidou. He said he wants to see me, so I'm going out for a bit."

Then the two of them left together.

The three of them were left standing there, looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Haido challenged you to a duel?"

After leaving the house, Jiang Yang asked about the lumberyard.

"Yeah, Kaidou, he's gone a bit too far."

"Don't be too ruthless, he's not a bad person."

"I know."

Downstairs, they split up. Jiang Yang rode the War Lion and pushed the speed to the maximum he could control.

The person who called him just now was Snail Orphnoch from last night. That guy called to say he killed someone.

As for why he knew Jiang Yang's number, it was actually an experiment by Jiang Yang.

Last night, he called his client and asked for their help to have as many residents as possible leave a note on the table before leaving home. The note should include Jiang Yang's name and phone number, along with a short message. The message should mention last night and how it might have reminded Orphnoch of himself. There was also another sentence.

"I am not your enemy, don't do anything you'll regret."

In fact, Jiang Yang was just taking a gamble. He didn't know if Snail Orphnoch would simply move to another location to continue stealing after being discovered last night.

I don't know if this guy will contact me, so this is just a trial.

To his surprise, the other party contacted him, but the first thing they said was that he had committed murder.

What does this mean? Is she asking me for help to cover it up?

Wait a minute, this kind of thing should be handled by the AI ​​Group.

Want to turn yourself in?

This is none of my business!

Regardless, he'd go see that guy first, hear what he wanted to say, and then decide.

The snail Orphino wasn't far from Jiang Yang's location, and Jiang Yang sped up, quickly arriving at the destination.

From afar, Jiang Yang saw the snail Orphnoch kneeling on the ground, laughing maniacally, with tears still clinging to the corners of his eyes, as if he had been crying.

When Jiang Yang appeared, he didn't react at all, still laughing maniacally.

"I killed someone! I killed someone! Hahahaha, I..."

"Tell me what's going on."

"I...I'm just hungry,"

He was hungry and penniless, so he resorted to theft. As usual, he sneaked into an empty house and ate his fill, but this time he didn't expect the homeowner to have returned home early.

Upon discovering a thief inside, the homeowner became extremely agitated, shouting and rushing forward. The two began to fight, or rather, he was the one being beaten.

But suddenly, a surge of anger rose within him. He had only been eating something; he hadn't stolen any money or anyone. Why was he being beaten like this?

In an instant, anger rose from his heart, and evil took hold; he transformed into the form of Orphnoch.

When they came to their senses, the other person had already turned to ashes.

“I didn’t want to kill him, really, I didn’t want to kill anyone.”

Seeing him crying with snot and tears streaming down his face, Jiang Yang felt a mix of emotions.

What happened today can be seen as both an accident and an inevitability.

He also broke into a house this morning, but he went to a house he had researched beforehand where no one would be home during the time the underfloor heating was off. Then he found a note in the house.

This made him feel self

He was attracted to being targeted, so in the afternoon he went to a place far away from that area to commit the crime. Because of insufficient investigation, he bumped into the homeowner returning home. It was a coincidence.

And inevitably, since he always breaks into homes to steal, he will run into trouble sooner or later; it's just a matter of time.

"So what? What's your purpose in calling me? Do you want me to help you get away with it? I'm sorry, I don't have that ability and I won't help you."

"No, no, it's not necessary."

"Then who are you?"

He gritted his teeth, and after a while, he seemed to have made up his mind.

"You seem to know Faiz. Please, have him kill me."

"what?"

Jiang Yang was a little confused. No, this was all so sudden. How did this happen?

“I’m a useless person. I can’t do anything right. In the end, I’m all alone, and I died a pathetic death. I was resurrected with great difficulty, and I thought I could be different, but in the end, nothing has changed. Enough is enough. I’ve had enough.”

Seeing a grown man crying in front of him, Jiang Yang was at a loss for what to do. He really didn't know how to handle this situation.

Because the other person really wanted to die.

The other person is not in a situation where there is no other way out, no other choice but to live, where living is more painful than dying, and where death is the only way to escape.

Instead, they no longer wanted to make any choices and wanted to escape through death.

Jiang Yang was truly helpless in the face of someone who had completely lost the will to live. Perhaps giving him a punch would bring him back to his senses.

But Jiang Yang knew very well that this was impossible. There was no such effect written on his hand. He couldn't save someone who wanted to die.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yang's tone turned cold.

"There are many ways to escape, death is one of them, but the worst choice is death. I can't help you, you'd better take care of yourself."

If he wanted Jiang Yang to help cover up the murder, Jiang Yang would not hesitate to send him to see his great-grandmother.

If the other party wants to reform, Jiang Yang will find a way to send him to prison.

But he wants to commit suicide. Sorry, Jiang Yang won't help people commit suicide.

There's a saying that goes, "Don't advise others to do good if you haven't suffered like them," and Jiang Yang actually agrees with that. But even so, if he were to actually encounter such a situation, Jiang Yang would still try to offer some advice if possible.

While he certainly lacks life experience, he's still quite capable when it comes to spouting general principles. Of course, we shouldn't take it too seriously, since he hasn't experienced it himself.

However, there is one exception: suicide.

Jiang Yang didn't know why people live or why they are born. He didn't understand such profound truths, but he was very clear about one thing: people don't come into this world to commit suicide.

He was powerless to change the suicidal mind of a disheartened person; he knew very well that grand principles were useless against such people, he had tried. It wasn't that he didn't want to do anything, but that he was powerless to do anything.

The only response is indifference.

Riding the War Lion, Jiang Yang left without looking back, leaving behind a man laughing maniacally. In the midst of his laughter, he transformed into the form of an Orphnoch.
