Learn one small skill every day

He looks like a child, but what is inside him?

How could one person repeatedly disrupt Shengshoutang's plans in the county without caring about anything?

He seemed to have all his strength drained away, sliding down to the ground, his voice low and deep: "Did you have a grudge against Shengshoutang from the beginning?"

"What do you think? I saw my grandma when I was in second grade, and I lost a tooth because of you when I was in third grade. Although your plans weren't specifically targeting me, they affected me every time. What's wrong with me fighting back?"

Bai Miao pressed further, "If I do nothing, how many of the primary school students in this county will survive?"

The general manager said with a wry smile, "We will stop once we meet the targets. For the second year, we need 500 kilograms of flesh and blood, and for the third year, we need 100,000 teeth. Once these requirements are met, we will stop."

“We have a budget. There will be about 200 students in the second grade. In the third grade, each student will only need to lose their baby teeth a few times. There will not even be any injuries or deaths.”

Bai Miao chuckled: "Then how do we fill in the bones that have been hollowed out by worms?"

"On average, each person will only have one bone affected, which is not a big problem at all."

The general manager tried to defend himself, saying, "Kids have strong recovery abilities. Even if a bone is broken, it can be replaced with a better one later. Isn't titanium alloy technology very advanced now?"

"Don't give me all this useless advice."

Bai Miao interrupted him: "Just answer my questions honestly now, or I'll really torture you to death and then send your family to reunite with you. Oh, and I might make your family suffer the same pain as you."

"you dare!"

"Do you think I dare?!"

Bai Miao kicked the general manager in the face, knocking out several of his teeth.

"You made me watch my deskmate jump off a building and commit suicide in second grade, then you plotted to kill Chen Tianzhuo, tried to cause an accident to kill Zhang Ze, now you've imprisoned the teahouse owner who was kind to me, and finally you want to kill me!!"

"You, it was your Shengshoutang that pushed me step by step to the point where I had no choice but to destroy you! You brought this on yourself!"

Bai Miao squatted down and grabbed the general manager's hair: "If you had even a shred of compassion, you wouldn't have ended up like this, but it's too late now. If you want your family to live, answer my question. This is the last time I'll ask you! Answer or not!"

"Answer! I'll tell you, but you have to spare my family!"

The general manager was somewhat desperate. How could a good person threaten him with his own family?

He always felt that Bai Miao stopped Shengshoutang for the sake of justice, and that such a person shouldn't be so extreme.

"Does your headquarters possess some kind of tool that can influence cognition?"

"Yes... it's a pocket watch. The chairman has it, but I know something deeper: the information I have is likely to have been modified by my own understanding."

"Shengshoutang in Heshan County only sells medicines, not manufactures them, right?"

“That’s right. So, from the perspective of those above, this is just a distribution store. You should also realize what a behemoth the entire Shengshoutang is.”

"How did you manage to get a deceased person to abduct children?"

The general manager coughed a few times: "I knew you were interested in these methods, but I regret to inform you that the county level is the lowest level. We only know to follow the operating procedures given by the city, but we don't know the specifics of how it is implemented."

Bai Miao thought for a moment and then asked, "Do you think your Shengshou Hall can stand against the state?"

The general manager shook his head: "That's definitely not going to work. We rely on the ability to modify perceptions to profit from them, but we're absolutely not foolish enough to use this to subvert the country, because there are several limitations to modifying perceptions."

"First, if the person whose cognition is being modified is also a victim, the success rate will be greatly reduced. So we choose children. The adults are just bystanders. They don't know what exactly happened to the children. Even if the children raise issues, they won't take it too seriously."

The general manager looked at Bai Miao: "No one usually listens to what children say, right? No matter how logical or mature you are, in the eyes of adults you're just pretending to be an adult."

Bai Miao nodded; few people would care about a child's words.

Their pain and their joy, even if they are fortunate enough to be heard by adults, will be further processed and distorted in the minds of adults.

How many people can truly achieve mutual understanding?

The general manager suddenly laughed at this point: "In fact, for this reason, we don't consider big cities as raw material sources. From the perspective of raw material supply, our county towns are the front line."

"The second limitation to modifying our understanding is time. After announcing the modification, we need to obtain enough raw materials within three months."

"Thirdly, changing perceptions, especially on such a large scale, requires an enormous amount of energy and resources. Therefore, we only carry out this kind of action once a year or two. Because the second and third years were ruined because of your plan, we were required to make adjustments in your fourth year. We did not receive any orders from headquarters that year."

I see……

Many of Bai Miao's doubts were answered.

But there was another thing that bothered him.

How did you discover that I was the one interfering with your operations?

“Using the process of elimination, when something like this happened, we initially thought it must be some kind of expert, but we eventually discovered that Cheng Tiyuan had been repeatedly harassed by a group of elementary school thugs before his death. After investigating for a long time, we gradually narrowed our focus to the Experimental Elementary School.”

The general manager sighed: "I originally thought that eliminating the people around you one by one would make you feel fear and despair. I could see the regret on your face for going against Shengshoutang. But you seem completely unconcerned. Can you tell me why? How did you manage to do all this?"

Now, it's the general manager's turn to be curious.

He had been holding these questions in for a long time.

"I don't need to answer you. There are many things you can't understand, and that's enough."

"You sent people to my house. Did you obtain any intelligence?"

The general manager was somewhat bewildered: "Your family... came to ask me? All the people I sent to your house to arrest you have disappeared without a trace. It wasn't you who did it?"

It seems he doesn't know either.

Bai Miao felt that he had overlooked a very important issue.

His mind went blank, but the general manager seemed to suddenly realize something, his eyes widened, and he pointed at Bai Miao, asking, "You...you don't have any memories of first grade, and you don't have any memories of any summer or winter vacations after that?!"

"Tell me what happened?!"

Bai Miao grabbed the general manager by the collar: "Did your Shengshoutang do this again?!"

The general manager burst into laughter: "Hahaha, I see!!"

Ignoring his pain, he excitedly stood up: "You won't live to graduate! You won't live to see that day!"

Bai Miao punched him hard in the stomach, then delivered a knee strike to his chin.

What did you do in first grade?

The general manager spat out a mouthful of blood: "I know why you suddenly became different. It seems you are one of those extremely rare individuals."

"In the first grade, what we collect is not the flesh and blood of children, nor their bones, but their memories."

"This memory must be unforgettable enough, a profound memory that allows a child to grow up overnight and gain life experience."

"After gaining these memories, the child whose memories were taken away will forget most of their past, and will also forget any events similar to their memories."

Bai Miao frowned and said, "So, I experienced something big during my first-year summer vacation, which caused me to lose all my memories of vacations?"

"That's one way to understand it, but there's a very small chance that doing so could completely turn that child into a different person. There are many similar cases. When I was doing training at headquarters, I encountered many similar cases. They all claimed to be from another world. Some of them were caught and subjected to a lot of experiments, but none of them lived to graduate from elementary school."

As he spoke, the general manager got up again, seemingly much happier now that he was convinced that Bai Miao would also die.

"The operation of stealing memories is extremely difficult to achieve even within the entire Shengshoutang Group. This process is uncontrollable and can even distort reality, causing some stereotypes that were originally in the mind to remain and become eternal."

Bai Miao murmured, "My parents have always been gambling, but the family has always managed to operate normally... The source of income is unknown..."

The general manager interrupted, saying, "My understanding is that when you were in first grade, you couldn't understand the source of your parents' income, but you had a particularly deep impression of your parents playing cards, which may even have been a major impression of that day."

"So they keep playing cards, but they keep having money, and they've been forcibly distorted into the world you perceive."

Bai Miao shook his head: "Wouldn't that throw the world into chaos?"

“A child’s distortion cannot reach that level. Even if such a risk exists, both Sheng Shou Tang and the official government will actively address it.”

"You're playing with fire."

"So what if you're playing with fire? How much profit is there in it?" The general manager looked at Bai Miao's expression and his mood improved. "The memories you lost will come back to you before you graduate. At that time, it will be your death day. The person you lost in that incident will not want you to leave him and grow up alone."

Bai Miao's expression grew increasingly gloomy. It turned out that the crisis he would face in sixth grade actually came from first grade, a year he had never experienced before.

Bai An's past is about to be caught up with.

Could the dreams I've been having lately be fragments of past memories?

"Before that, I'll send you to hell first."

"Hehehe... I'll be waiting for you in hell..."

As he spoke, Bai Miao punched the general manager in the chest, killing him instantly.

After killing the general manager, Bai Miao put away the gun on his body, cleaned up the scene, and then moved around on the roof with his body, preparing to dispose of the body first.

Bai Miao had many ways of disposing of the body, but in the end he chose a place far from populated areas and burned it to ashes.

As the rising smoke gradually subsided, Bai Miao knew that his fifth grade was about to end.

In 08, Shengshoutang was found to have issues such as failing to meet business qualification requirements and was ordered to suspend operations for rectification.

After seeing Bai An's application materials, the Third Middle School of the city made an exception and admitted him without requiring him to take the sixth-grade exam.

Being exceptionally admitted to the city's best middle school instantly made Bai An a top student and a star student. Facing skepticism, he achieved first place in the county-wide joint exam at the fifth-grade end-of-term with a decisive score difference. Even his homeroom teacher couldn't find any fault with Bai An.

After the collapse of Shengshoutang, Bai An quickly amassed his own power, hoping to one day reach Shengshoutang's level and completely bring it down.

[By using the money he made from reselling trading cards and his own cunning, Bai An managed to gather almost all the troublemakers from vocational high schools and junior high schools in the county during his fifth year of school. He was revered by the elementary school students as the overlord of the younger generation in Heshan County. Even the owners of illegal internet cafes advertised that their cafe was the one Bai An frequented.]

Leveraging his connections and academic achievements, Bai An successfully moved out of his parents' house and found an apartment to live in on his own. In his parents' eyes, Bai An was already a capable young man. At the same time, Bai An began to develop a business selling electronic products and working as a distributor for telecom operators.

But Bai An knew in her heart that the person from her memories would eventually come looking for her. Everything she was doing now was simply in the hope of helping herself in sixth grade, even if the possibility was extremely slim.

[In the first semester of sixth grade, Bai An had already become a behind-the-scenes boss earning tens of thousands of yuan a month. No one knew that the boss behind the mobile phone operator was a sixth-grade elementary school student.]

But everything eventually comes to an end. In the second semester of sixth grade, it begins...

Chapter 249 My Sister Stayed in That Summer

Wow... this Bai An is quite capable.

Bai Miao recalled Bai An's actions over the past year and a half and felt from the bottom of his heart that Bai An was quite capable.

Although things are developing normally according to my own ideas, and to some extent I can say that I am experiencing this period of time, it's just that the system has fast-forwarded it.

However, in order not to get too immersed in the character of Bai An, Bai Miao always recalled things from an outsider's perspective.

Bai An has now become a celebrity who attracts attention wherever she goes at school.

After leaving his parents and starting his own life, Bai Miao cooks and eats his own dinner every day, with a very healthy diet, and his height has grown to nearly 1.75 meters.

No one would treat Bai Miao like a primary school student.

"Boss, this is the revenue data for the summer vacation. Please take a look. Because many students buy mobile phones with their parents after finishing their middle school or college entrance exams during the summer vacation, the transaction volume is 30% higher than the normal period."
