Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 702 The Collapsed
Pan Junyuan opened his mouth, then slowly closed it again.

Yes, what am I going to do next?
Just last night, before the operation, he was full of ambition and determined to fight the Toyosaki Group to the end, but now his mind is blank.

The plans and schemes I had imagined countless times in my mind now held no appeal whatsoever.

Pan Junyuan stared blankly at the ground as if he had Alzheimer's disease.

Finally, he uttered unconscious thoughts from the depths of his heart.

"I want them dead."

Pan Junyuan's eyes were vacant, like a walking corpse: "I want them all to die."

What about the big picture, what about justice, what about the law?

These excuses that Pan Junyuan used to comfort and numb himself all turned into the most primal hatred the moment he saw Zhao Xingsheng.

The moral bottom line that had always bound him was shattered by Zhao Xingsheng's arrogant attitude.

Pan Junyuan has transcended societal constraints; he now only wants to resolve everything in the way that brings him the most gratifying sense of revenge.

"If you choose revenge, no one will help you. This is the bigger picture."

Ai Liang did not show impatience towards the client who kept changing the plan, but instead gave serious advice.

The bigger picture? Why should I, an innocent person, have to swallow this blood feud for the sake of the bigger picture?!
To save more people?

What about me?! Does that mean my whole family deserves to die?!

Extreme emotions began to churn within Pan Junyuan; this honest man had been pushed to his limit.

"calm down."

Ai Liang put her hand on Pan Junyuan's shoulder, forcefully suppressing his crazy thoughts.

Being so close, Ai Liang inevitably sensed the madness in Pan Junyuan's heart.

For someone who has completely reached a dead end, trying to persuade them with grand principles will only add fuel to the fire.

It's better to guide than to block; this is a principle that any normal person understands.

“I’m an outsider and don’t know the details behind this. From an outsider’s perspective, it’s fine if you want revenge, but you’d better think carefully about what means you want to use to get revenge.”

"If you're planning to force the police to arrest people by kidnapping ordinary citizens, you'd better think carefully about who you want to kill. Do you think the police have the capability to bring them here?"

"The result of doing that is simply that you will be shot dead before you see your enemy die. I'm sure you will die in obscurity, and no media outlet will dare to report the truth."

Ai Liang did not persuade Pan Junyuan to let go of his hatred, but instead guided him in her own way not to harm the innocent.

Simply saying that every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor is useless; people are not worried about scarcity but about inequality.

Pan Junyuan himself was an innocent person who was forced into a desperate situation. When he was framed, everyone was watching coldly. How could you expect him to sympathize with others?

Pan Junyuan's biggest concern right now is to see his enemy die with his own eyes; only by grasping this point can we help him find a way to calm down.

Pan Junyuan, who had been forced to calm down, understood what Ai Liang meant.

He thought for a moment and came up with a solution.

“I have houses, stocks and real estate at home. Even if they want to rob me outright, they will only do so after I die. As long as I am alive, they will not touch these things for the time being.”

“I know which bank my parents keep these things in, and I know the password. As long as M helps us forge a fake identity to enter the bank, we can withdraw the valuables.”

Pan Junyuan said, "I can give you those bearer stocks and bonds that can be directly converted into cash. Are you willing to accept my commission?"

Ai Liang remained noncommittal: "You want me to help you get rid of those people?"

"No, you can just bring them over for me."

Pan Junyuan's eyes revealed a deathly stillness: "You're willing to help me kidnap Zhao Xingsheng, which means you're not bound by those laws and rules. Once or many times makes no difference." "But this time you're going to kill someone."

"So I hope you can call the police and distance yourself from me first, and then I will take action."

Pan Junyuan looked directly at Ai Liang: "I won't make things difficult for you."

Ai Liang finally understood why people say that turning evil makes you three times stronger and turning good makes you three times weaker.

When you break free from all the shackles that bind you, aren't you three times stronger?

"I have accepted your commission."

........................

'That kid's gone mad; he's planning to take everyone down with him.'

Suddenly, the figure of young Ai Liang appeared in the passenger seat.

'Are you planning to save him, or are you preparing to push him into the fire?'

"It's up to him to choose. As long as he doesn't involve unrelated people, Pan Junyuan is free to do whatever he wants."

Ai Liang propped her head up with one hand, staring intently at the casino in the distance.

'What do you mean by "it's up to his own choice"? Since you're willing to help him, don't you hope he can survive?'

Anliang reached out and grabbed the dreamcatcher ornament inside the car, but his hand passed right through it without any surprise.

Bored out of his mind, he peered through the windshield at the sky: 'How about I modify his consciousness? I guarantee he can take revenge in a way that conforms to the workings of human society, while remaining absolutely rational.'

"No."

Without the slightest hesitation, Ai Liang decisively rejected An Liang's suggestion: "Completely altering one's personality and consciousness is something that should never happen."

Mind reading, hypnosis, and completely altering a person's personality and consciousness are two different things.

The first two do not affect a person's personality consciousness.

Ai Liang's usual hypnosis techniques are merely to modify memories of her own whereabouts or to deepen someone's emotions or impressions in a certain way; it is only a limited form of control over a person.

Personality modification, on the other hand, treats humans as puppets, turning them into something akin to a game NPC. Once that happens, it becomes very difficult for the person to see humans as human beings again.

The impact of the two is not even in the same order of magnitude.

"This won't work, that won't work, are you planning to watch that kid die?"

Ai Liang glanced sideways at An Liang: "Why are you suddenly so concerned about Pan Junyuan's life or death?"

'Caring? Not really, but this kid's personality has finally become to my liking, and I don't want him to die so soon.'

"Don't want Pan Junyuan to die? I think you want me to get dragged into this vortex and cause chaos."

'Hehe, as expected of the dominant personality, you really understand me.'

A fawning, wicked smile appeared on his gloomy face.

Ai Liang had no good way to deal with this guy who was always harboring evil thoughts.

To put it bluntly, if one wants to control the power related to the mind and spirit, one needs His help, and He claims to be a part of oneself, and indeed does everything with His own interests in mind.

But to say it's bleak is pure nonsense; there's no need to list the reasons.

"Let's see if Pan Junyuan can get over it after he gets his revenge. If he can, he'll live; if not, he'll die. I'm neither a god nor his parents. In the end, he has to walk his own path."

"I knew you'd say that... Sigh, it would be interesting if that kid hired us to kill someone, but just having us tie people up without letting us do the work is really boring."
