Chapter 1413 - 452: All Are Guilty
Memory enables everyone to have a renewed understanding of themselves. These understandings can even be called subversive.
Including Wen Xishu, three men and four women—almost all conceived a thought:
"Did I really do this thing?"
Wen Xishu was somewhat bewildered at this moment, thinking that the logic didn’t make sense.
Because these memories made Wen Xishu feel strange.
In the memory, Wen Xishu indeed looked very handsome, resembling his current appearance. It must be said that he has a face that the readers can genuinely relate to, the kind of face that could have girls giving him chocolate during his school days.
His first scene of memory was him standing in the corridor, playfully watching a person lying on the ground, that person was clutching his leg, begging him.
"Don’t go! Please, don’t go! Please don’t leave me, I’m willing to do anything."
It was a woman.
Her looks were indescribable, with flabby flesh on the face and some acne scars. The woman was begging Wen Xishu, seeming to want Wen Xishu to return something to her.
Wen Xishu bent down, he actually quite gently stroked the woman’s face:
"There, there, you don’t have any money now, but I still have to support myself. You wouldn’t be that selfish, would you? Do you think you in your current state have the ability to love me?"
The woman cried:
"I can’t live without you! I can’t live without you! But I have no money now... I gave all my money to you..."
Wen Xishu laughed and said:
"I’m also reluctant to part with you, precisely because you have no money left, that’s why I need to go work hard, my business is at a crucial stage now, and it lacks just this amount of money."
"But during the hard-working process, I might also submit myself to other people for money, maybe temporarily lose contact with you."
"Sigh, I hope you understand, I don’t want it this way. If you have money in the future if I have money, I will strive to return to your side."
Wen Xishu removed the woman’s fleshy hand from his ankle and then turned around to leave. At the moment of turning, his face was full of disgust.
However, soon he showed a smile and turned back.
"I still have money! I still have my sister’s tuition!" The woman struggled, ultimately still longing to retain Wen Xishu.
Wen Xishu said gently:
"Fantastic, with this money, we can be together again. Rest assured, with this money, my business will recoup."
This was the first memory scene.
Wen Xishu was truly shocked by this memory.
I...
A rich second generation, someone who concluded in the first round of the game to have vast financial power... I actually would cheat a woman out of money?
And it’s the kind that isn’t picky, purely for swindling money.
After all, the woman in the memory could hardly stir any feelings in Wen Xishu unless his taste was indeed very heavy.
So he could only aim to cheat money, and the kind that doesn’t care if the prey is tall, short, fat, or thin.
"Damn it, am I such a person?"
"Am I some kind of pleasure-seeking... peculiar rich second generation who likes to swindle?"
Wen Xishu felt that he wasn’t.
"No..."
"If I truly were this kind of person, then even if the memory was removed, my instincts and character undertones would remain. After this part of the memory is restored...I should frankly recall certain feelings."
"For example, if I enjoyed deceiving women emotionally, this memory would make me feel excited."
"But I only feel that this is not me at all, I even find it quite disgusting."
Wen Xishu calmed down, realizing that this memory might be fake.
In fact, he shouldn’t have such repulsion; he should accept his memories like everyone else.
Although the "Cosmetic Surgeon" can take away memories and transfer them cleverly, Wen Xishu’s Anti-Magic Value isn’t to be trifled with either.
Wen Xishu’s sense of self hadn’t been obliterated.
His gaze became increasingly clear:
"The memory is false, it seems this monster can not only steal memories but also swap them onto others?"
At this time, the game started the first round of judgment.
[Next is the crime display segment.]
The seven men and women sitting in the electric chairs all focused their gaze on the huge screen.
At this moment, the screen displayed three words – Workplace Bullying.
Wen Xishu subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Alright, if it were fraud, then it would be targeting me.
However, speaking again... it remains unclear how the game will progress. Even if it is fraud, only I would know I’m the fraudster, right?
[Audience, welcome to this episode of the criminal selection column, this time we are going to select a workplace tyrant, a person who enjoys bullying others from among seven people. Feel free to guess, who could it be?]
[Next, the seven people will take turns describing the scenes from their memories; each must mention one piece of effective information from the scene once. Remember, audiences can identify lies, and lying would mean admitting guilt.]
Wen Xishu understood.
The gameplay is to recount the contents within one’s memory; you can dress it up, fabricate details, focus on one aspect rather than another...
But you cannot lie.
And you cannot ramble on; you must ensure your description contains information that the audience feels is valuable.
Finally, audiences outside the screen will judge based on your speech if you’re the villain.
The first to speak was unexpectedly not number eleven, Li Zaiyun. But number ten, Zheng Haoshu.
Zheng Haoshu’s appearance is extremely ugly, when the camera gives a close-up of his face, although the audience’s expressions of disgust aren’t seen on the screen...
