Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 308: Man can conquer nature
The male lead? Okay, okay, so it's the big commotion you and your people caused, right?
Du Desheng stared intently at the photo across the table, wishing he could carve the image of that person smoking into his lungs right now.

There's a saying that goes something like this: hate lasts longer than love. Right now, he truly wishes he could skin the person alive, dismember them, and rebuild them on the spot!
"What's wrong with this guy?"

"This Mr. Tao is a doctor. According to your previous prediction, he will be stabbed in the heart by a patient's family member who is causing trouble at the hospital one morning, and thus enter that world."

Du Anrao could feel his heart pounding: "You stopped him?"

"Yes, we subdued Dr. Tao before the family member could stab him. But that same evening, Dr. Tao was stabbed in the abdomen by the assailant while trying to help someone on his way home. Although he was fortunate enough to survive thanks to timely medical attention, we are not sure if he is still alive..."

"He's been there." Du Anrao's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died, yet there was also a sense of expected melancholy.

After all, he's the male protagonist from the original book; how could he be stopped so easily? Du Anrao, however, was skeptical of Xu Ronghai's so-called act of bravery.

Although strictly speaking, he wasn't among those who harmed Dr. Du in the original book, and he often mediated conflicts among the main characters, playing the role of peacemaker, throughout the entire book, no one was more like Du Anrao—warm on the outside but cold on the inside. He would never do anything that would be detrimental to himself.

For example, if only two people could live in this world, he might take the female protagonist he loves with him to live together. But if only one could live, he would not hesitate to abandon his so-called true love, and even step on her corpse to send himself to the safest place.

Such a person almost lost his life because of his act of bravery? Du Anrao found it all absurd.

A look of understanding flashed across Xu Ronghai's eyes. The real data had completely convinced him, making him no longer dare to question Du Anrao's words.

"I guessed so, which is why we had people keep a close watch on these survivors who were in trouble but were lucky enough to be rescued. That way, we'll know immediately if anything else happens."

"You did the right thing."

Xu Ronghai breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Du Anrao's words, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

"This young lady is a reporter. According to your prediction, she sneaked into a high-end residential area in order to secretly photograph a top female celebrity's sex scandal and climbed a high-rise building to get first-hand information, but unfortunately fell from the building. We caught her as soon as she entered the residential area and sent her to the police station for two days of detention. But on the day she was released from the police station, she accidentally fell into the water while arguing with someone."

"This gentleman is a rich second-generation. According to the original plan, he should have had a car accident while speeding on the mountain road and was on the verge of death. However, because we had closed that area of ​​mountain roads in advance, he did not go to that mountain. But not long after, he suddenly received a call from home at a friend's gathering. He was still involved in a car accident on his way home after drinking."

"And then there's this lady, a university teacher. While handling a theft case on campus, she was trying to stop two students from arguing when she was accidentally pushed off a building and seriously injured. Our people arrived in time, preventing this tragedy, and the theft was quickly solved. But shortly afterward, she was confronted by the relatives of the student who committed the theft. During the scuffle, she accidentally hit her head and was taken to the hospital for treatment."

"And this...this...this..." Xu Ronghai mentioned quite a few people in succession. It can be said that after the initial few incidents were verified, the subsequent experiences of these people basically all showed traces of their interference. It's just that some people were lucky. After one intervention, it was as if their fate was corrected. They survived the calamity and were reborn. They were not pulled into that terrible other world and trapped to death inside.

However, after eight or nine out of ten people avoided the initial calamity thanks to their intervention, they soon encountered similar disasters. Even though the people under Xu Ronghai's sea were constantly watching them, they were ultimately unable to prevent it, and most of them still entered the cycle.

This was within Du Anrao's expectations. When Xu Ronghai mentioned that Dr. Tao had escaped being stabbed by a patient who was causing a medical dispute, but was then stabbed by a thug on the road, Du Anrao already had a premonition.

This should be the self-correction of the Heavenly Dao in that infinite flow world. These chosen people should all have been marked, but some are marked more deeply than others.

For mild cases, one intervention can erase the problem, but for severe cases, there's no way to save them. Even if you can help them once or twice, you can't save them for life.

Just like the main characters, they were all involved in the intervention, but they still suffered disasters for various reasons.

[That's why they're called the protagonist group, blessed with good fortune. Apart from Liu Tianyuan, who's already been crippled, even if Uncle Xu and his group caught these guys and put them in there to work on sewing machines, they probably wouldn't escape the fate of slipping and falling in the shower and ending up critically ill.]

Even Du Desheng, who cared a great deal about the main characters, was speechless at Du Anrao's guess, and couldn't tell whether these so-called chosen ones were fortunate or unfortunate.

Although the protagonist group was indeed a little unlucky than others because something bad was bound to happen, they were still quite lucky compared to those poor people who were left behind in that world after the accident.

"This young lady's original fate was that the elevator malfunctioned, she stepped into a hole while exiting the elevator, and fell to her death from a high altitude. With our intervention, she did not ride the malfunctioning elevator, but the next day she was hit on the head by an object thrown from a high-rise building and died on the spot."

When Xu Ronghai mentioned this, he was filled with guilt, and his words were full of regret and remorse.

They had tried so hard to protect them, but the final result was still unsatisfactory. Is it really impossible to change the predetermined fate?

Upon hearing this, Du Anrao knew what he was thinking and comforted him, "Uncle Xu, don't be sad. This is not your fault. It is precisely because this matter is difficult that we must work harder to make changes. Throughout history, all experience has taught us that human will can overcome nature. Effort may not guarantee survival, but without effort, survival is impossible."

[Just like my family, if we truly believed in the idea of ​​predetermined fate, my parents, older brothers, older sisters, and even myself would probably all be dead by now. We wouldn't have the time to be wallowing in self-pity and figuring out how to save others.]

Du Desheng's eyes flickered slightly. Indeed, if it weren't for this little girl's help, not only would he have lost his wife, but he, this old man, would have been devoured by those jackals and tigers until there were no bones left.

If this is the ending that God has arranged for him, then he has truly rebelled against God!
