A Single Person's Infinite Wonderful Life

Chapter 4. Pedantry

The fear in her heart caused Ayaka Sunohara to unconsciously take on an aggressive look when she looked at Aki Shiina. She herself did not realize that she was much more aggressive towards Aki Shiina than she usually was.

Li Wei said, "Ayaka, calm down. There are always coincidences in the world. The two people just look alike. That doesn't mean that Aki-kun is that kind of person."

Haruhara Ayaka took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down, and said, "I know, of course I know about this, but when I see this face, I can't help but get agitated. I'm afraid I won't be able to stop myself from hitting him. I know this is just displaced anger, and the real demon has already been punished, but this has become my inner demon."

Li Wei said, “Caihua, you must step out of the shadows of the past. Although I know it’s a bit unreasonable to say this, the current you is the opposite of the usual you, which is bad for your physical and mental health and will also affect your cultivation.”

Ayaka Haruhara's expression was somewhat ferocious, which startled Shiina Aki, who was standing next to Li Wei. Shiina Aki could sense that this beautiful, big-breasted woman was constantly radiating a murderous aura that seemed to be tangible, and the target of this murderous aura was him.

Shiina Aki was not a very brave person to begin with, and when faced with this palpable killing intent, he chickened out and obediently retreated behind Li Wei. Only when he was hiding behind Li Wei could he feel a tiny bit of safety.

Shiina Aki had no idea what Sunohara Ayaka had gone through before he arrived. He only felt wronged, but he was being targeted as soon as he arrived at Sunohara Manor. What had he done to deserve this?

Ayaka Haruhara said, "I'm sorry, I lost my composure. I'll go to the kitchen to prepare dinner."

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, the three girls followed Haruhara Ayaka to the kitchen, leaving Li Wei and Shiina Aki alone in the living room.

Shiina Aki said cautiously, "It seems like I'm disliked. I just arrived here and haven't provoked her, right? Why does she look at me with such a dangerous gaze, like she wants to take my life?"

Li Wei said, "The matter here is not complicated. It's a coincidence. To be honest, I was quite surprised when I saw your appearance. It's amazing that there are people in the world who look so alike, even with similar voices."

Li Wei didn't keep him in suspense and quickly recounted what had happened. When Shiina Aki finished listening, he couldn't hold back his expression anymore, because he never expected that he would look exactly like a Southeast Asian human trafficker. Not only were their faces almost identical, but their voices were also nearly the same, and their height and build were almost identical as well. He finally understood why Sunohara Ayaka hated him so much.

Shiina Aki seemed a little disappointed. Sunohara Ayaka, who was like an older sister to him in every way, was very much in his liking, but now it seemed that nothing embarrassing or exciting could happen between them.

The other party's initial impression of him was negative, and it wouldn't be easy to change it. He couldn't think of any way to change his image in the other party's eyes, since just seeing his face would remind the other party of his previous terrifying experience.

Shiina Aki said, on the verge of tears, "Why am I so unlucky? Why do all these messy things keep happening to me?"

Li Wei patted Shiina Aki on the shoulder and said, "The only thing you can do is accept reality. And to be honest, I'm the one who should be feeling the psychological pressure. After all, back at the beach, I personally snapped that human trafficker's neck and used a special drug to corrode his body into a pile of rotten flesh before throwing it into the sea to feed the fish. When you appeared in front of me, my first reaction was, 'Did I kill someone else?' A dead person moving around in front of you—wouldn't you find that terrifying?"

Shiina Aki was filled with even greater fear. He hadn't expected Li Wei to have actually killed people. Indeed, he, an ordinary citizen, was different from the ruthless figures in the underworld. What Li Wei had done was, in his eyes, utterly terrifying. At least, even if someone were bound and brought before him to kill, he wouldn't have the courage. After all, as an ordinary person raised in a society governed by law, obeying the law was second nature to him; murder was illegal.

In his view, no one should arbitrarily take another's life under any circumstances; this is the most basic bottom line for a person as a human being. Once this bottom line is crossed, then legal punishment is inevitable. In his understanding, ordinary people, no matter what situation they face, should not challenge the bottom line of the law.

·Requesting flowers·· ······

Li Wei saw Shiina Aki's inner thoughts through mind-reading and could only sigh that the young man was still too young and his thinking was too rigid. Sooner or later, this rigid thinking would cause him great trouble.

Indeed, ordinary people must respect the law, because only when everyone respects the law can society maintain relative order and avoid significant chaos. However, people have desires, and desires naturally lead to conflict. In certain emergencies, there is no time for thought; when there is no way out, there are only two paths: either surrender and wait for death, or fight to the death.

Most adults with stable values ​​can understand this principle: prison food is always more appealing than offerings. When faced with danger and there is no way to avoid it, the only way to protect oneself is to bravely fight against evildoers. Even if it means excessive self-defense or intentional harm, one must kill the other party; only in this way can one survive.

...

Li Wei found Shiina Aki's ideas outdated and laughable, but he wouldn't voice them, as his character didn't support such actions. However, Shiina Aki would soon experience what it felt like to be criticized. Some things were difficult for Li Wei to do, but his puppet clone didn't have these concerns. In the end, Shiina Aki would probably be scolded until she cried.

Shiina Aki whispered, "Mr. Li Wei, even though the person on the other end is a human trafficker, it's still a human life. How could you do such a thing?"

Li Wei said, "You're talking about human rights with human traffickers?"

Shiina Aki said, "Human traffickers are human beings too. Why don't they have human rights? If he commits a crime, you can arrest him and take him to the police station. Why kill him outright? That's a human life too!"

Li Wei raised an eyebrow and said, "But have you ever thought about it? That human trafficker has committed countless evils and has harmed countless people. Many people have lost their families and lives because of him. Does such a beast have human rights?"

Shiina Aki hesitated for a moment, then said, "Yes, because he is a person. Even if he commits a crime, there is a law to punish him. And what we can do is bring him to justice."

Li Wei simply smiled and said nothing more. So pedantic was he that he didn't know what to say. All he could say was, "When people don't see eye to eye, a single word is too much."

Chapter 4. Complex People

Li Wei said, "Since you think so, then stick to your own ideas. Everyone has their own ideas, which is perfectly normal."

Shiina Aki could sense that Li Wei's words were not sincere, but he did not regret saying what he had just said. He felt that even evil people should be punished by law, rather than having others act as vigilantes and take the law into their own hands.

In Shiina Aki's view, although Li Wei appears sunny and cheerful, his ability to ruthlessly kill human traffickers suggests that Li Wei is a deeply hidden antisocial individual, no different from the rioters who cause unrest outside.

However, Shiina Aki has no intention of leaving Sunohara-sou. After all, if Sunohara-sou, where Li Wei is located, is really a place that can ensure his safety, as Li Wei said, then staying here is not a bad thing.

Although Shiina Aki disagreed with Levi's ideas, he didn't mind using Levi's coattails to protect himself. One should be flexible in thinking; disliking someone doesn't mean completely rejecting them. It's perfectly reasonable to make appropriate use of their abilities.

Moreover, in his view, although Li Wei wasn't a good person, he did have his merits, such as his overwhelming masculinity and strong muscles, which he admired. He wanted to learn from Li Wei how to become more manly, so appropriately closing the distance between them wasn't a bad thing.

Shiina Aki said, "Brother Li Wei, I won't call the police about what happened to you. Don't worry, I'll keep quiet."

Shiina Aki felt that he would be spending several years here. He not only wanted to study in a foreign country, but also wanted to go to high school and even university. Therefore, it was extremely important to get on Li Wei's good side.

Li Wei said, "Even if you call the police, it won't do any good. My skills in disposing of corpses are very professional. Any corpse I handle will leave no clues. The bodies of those human traffickers, after being coated with a special drug, dissolve instantly. Now, there probably isn't even a bone fragment left."

Upon hearing Li Wei's words, Shiina Aki shuddered. This seemingly sunny young man was a ruthless killer, and he absolutely couldn't afford to provoke such a vicious person.

As evening fell, the welcome banquet prepared for Shiina Aki began. The atmosphere at the banquet was somewhat strange. Several girls sat down and chatted casually. Shiina Aki wanted to join in but found that she couldn't get a word in edgewise, so she stopped talking and quietly ate her food.

The news on television was broadcasting reports of the riots in Tokyo. Since the situation could no longer be concealed, the Japanese authorities no longer covered up what was happening in Tokyo. They broadcast all kinds of news as they pleased, and the authorities did not stop them at all. It was as if they had given up all hope.

However, precisely because of this, the viewership of various news programs has increased considerably, and television stations, in order to boost their ratings, have focused their attention on the chaos in Tokyo.

It was precisely because multiple television stations added fuel to the fire by continuously broadcasting negative news about the riots in Tokyo that ordinary people got the impression that Tokyo had become a chaotic place and was doomed to collapse sooner or later.

In reality, Tokyo was not as chaotic as it appeared on television. Li Wei's puppet clones controlled the intensity of the destruction well, making their presence felt while ensuring that they did not have a significant negative impact on the lives of ordinary people. So, while the fighting looked exciting, the casualties were all within a manageable range.

Shiina Aki, who wanted to join in the girls' conversation but failed, turned her attention to the television.

Shiina Aki said, "I really envy these people's strength. Those muscles look really impressive."

Li Wei said, "You really like muscles?"

Shiina Aki said, "Yes, what's wrong?"

Li Wei said, "I'm just a little surprised. After all, your style is effeminate. To be honest, many young girls like your style these days. If you were all muscle, they would find it unattractive."

Shiina Aki said, "Girls like it, that's their business. Men don't build muscle to make girls like them. I once saw a quote somewhere that said reading is to make you calmly talk to idiots, while working out is to make idiots calmly talk to you. Someone like me is particularly lacking in intimidation."

Li Wei said, "You little brat, I really don't know where you heard all this nonsense. But there's nothing wrong with the statement itself. Some fools are just bullies who pick on the weak and fear the strong. As long as you're strong enough, these fools won't dare to mess with you. So, have you trained?"

Shiina Aki shook her head and said, "I also want to exercise, but my sister strictly forbids me from doing so, saying that exercising will make me develop ugly muscles. She always dresses me up like a girl. The reason I ran away to Tokyo is to leave that kind of environment."

Li Wei said, "Can't you exercise at home? Why do you have to come all the way to Tokyo? It's your body, do you need your sister's permission to exercise?"

Li Wei didn't know what to say. He didn't know whether to call Shiina Aki brave or cowardly, because Shiina Aki's actions were indeed very confusing, but that's what made her a real person, and people are complex.

Shiina Aki hesitated. To be honest, he didn't know what he was thinking at the time, but he didn't like the feeling of being controlled, so he chose to leave. As for training, it's a little embarrassing to admit, but his several attempts at training all ended in failure because it was just too strenuous. Every time he made up his mind to start training, he would give up after only two days.

Shiina Aki thought that a change of environment might allow him to live a different life. Without his sister's influence, he could do whatever he wanted and have plenty of time to exercise. That way, he might be able to stick to exercising every day.

Li Wei said, "Exercise is your own business, not someone else's. If you want to exercise, then get moving. There are some exercise facilities here at Chunyuan Manor, so you can exercise within the manor even without leaving the premises."

Shiina Aki looked surprised and said, "Does Sunohara-sou have a gym inside?"

Li Wei said, "It's a training ground. Everyone in Chunyuan Manor, except you, practices martial arts, so I converted this place into a training ground to make it convenient for everyone to practice."

Chapter 4. Night Training

Shiina Aki seemed a little hesitant. He had thought about sticking to the training, but it was just too hard, and he hated the feeling of being covered in sweat. So when Li Wei mentioned that there was a dojo inside Chun Yuan Zhuang, he regretted it a little.

What Shiina Aki didn't notice was that the girls were looking at him with disdain. Originally, the girls wouldn't have acted this way, but because Li Wei had influenced them, they now admired men with masculinity more than effeminate men like Shiina Aki.

After all, in peacetime, women's aesthetic preferences tend to lean towards femininity, but once the environment becomes complex and dangerous, their aesthetic preferences shift towards practicality, favoring masculine men who can protect them. Now that Tokyo is becoming increasingly chaotic, women's aesthetic preferences are gradually being influenced by the environment, and recently, the business of host clubs in Tokyo has been significantly affected.

Now, the three girls are no longer like the characters in the original story, who would still have a crush on boys with effeminate appearances. Under Li Wei's influence, they have skipped this "aesthetically immature" stage and entered a more advanced stage. At the same time, their personal aesthetics are closer to retro styles. For them, masculine "Showa macho men" are far more reliable than "Reiwa cross-dressers".

Furthermore, Shiina Aki unknowingly revealed his weakness in his conversation with Li Wei, so the three girls looked at him with disdain. Even though Haruhara Manor already had a training dojo with excellent conditions and environment for training, Shiina Aki, this "Reiwa cross-dresser," still hesitated about whether to train. Such behavior was something that they, as girls, also looked down on.

Shiina Aki was unaware that he had unknowingly lowered his reputation among the girls of Sunohara-sou to a negative number.

At this moment, Shiina Aki was still engaged in a fierce internal struggle, with her desire to become stronger clashing violently with her own laziness.

Li Wei picked up the TV remote and changed the channel, but after changing several channels, all the TV channels were filled with news about the chaos in Tokyo.

Li Wei said, "These TV stations are going too far. Why is it that at this time slot, all they broadcast are these kinds of messy news programs? All I want to watch is a variety show to watch while I'm eating. Is that so hard?"

Kazami Yuri laughed and said, "These things might be boring for you, Brother Li Wei, but they're something that ordinary people would love to see. After all, people are very curious about the so-called underworld. It's normal for them to feel excited about seeing these ruthless characters they wouldn't normally encounter. TV stations naturally produce this kind of content to boost ratings, which means that this kind of content gets higher ratings and that people are paying more attention to it."

The Japanese are fascinating people; their greatest talent lies in turning tragedy into celebration. Even though the chaos in Tokyo is clearly not a good thing, the TV stations, for the sake of ratings, are still exaggerating the facts and exaggerating the chaos. It just goes to show that Japanese TV stations are different; for ratings, they'll release any sensational news without even verifying its veracity.

Of the various forces vying for the Qin Secret Manual, excluding the new forces that have joined recently, the earliest forces were all puppets of Li Wei. Therefore, Li Wei can be said to have a lot of say about the current development of the situation.

However, the content being broadcast by various television stations is something that even Li Wei, the mastermind behind it all, wants to complain about. The content is simply too outrageous, embellished with fantasies and exaggerated claims. Using the uniquely bizarre thought processes of the Japanese, they have forcibly constructed a magical underground world that resembles a comic book.

Li Wei was completely fed up with this. No matter which country's Japan is from, they can't get rid of this disease at their core. But he thought that this was a characteristic of the Japanese. If the Japanese didn't have this, would they still be called Japanese?

Li Wei said, "Okay, so now I've become one of the minority who aren't really interested in these things. These people are just paying lip service to these things. When these things actually happen to them, they'll be scared out of their wits."

After dinner, Li Wei helped Sunohara Ayaka clean up the dishes and tidied up the kitchen. Shiina Aki wanted to help too, but Sunohara Ayaka refused.

After cleaning up the kitchen and resting for over an hour, Li Wei went to the corridor in the back courtyard, placed the whole watermelon beside a large bowl of ice, and watched the girls, who had already changed into their martial arts uniforms, take a second look.

Fruit in Japan is a luxury for ordinary people, with extremely low cost-effectiveness. However, after Li Wei came to Chunyuan Manor, the manor has never run out of fruit.

Mangoes, watermelons, strawberries, and cantaloupes—as long as they train diligently, they can receive unlimited fruit as a reward after training.

Ayaka Sunohara, dressed in her Aikido training uniform, also arrived. Standing next to Li Wei, Aki Shiina stared blankly at the dashing Ayaka Sunohara, but the thought of her dislike for him filled him with disappointment.

Yuzu Yukimoto squatted down in front of the watermelon, patted the large watermelon floating on the surface, and said with a surprised expression, "This watermelon is huge! It's incredibly luxurious! And the sound it makes when you pat it, it's so firm, it's a perfectly ripe watermelon!"

With a gentle tap, Yuzuki patted the watermelon, and a crack appeared in its large size.

"Wow! It's split open! Isn't it perfectly ripe?!" Yuzu exclaimed like a child.

Haruhara Ayaka smiled and said, "Yuzu, training is about to begin. This is the prize after training. You can't touch it yet."

Yuzu Yukimoto stood up and said, "I know, I was just curious because it's the first time I've seen such a big watermelon. It's completely different from the ones I see in fruit shops."

Li Wei said, "These are Xinjiang watermelons air-freighted from Chongguo. The sunshine there is very abundant, so the watermelons can grow to be very large, and their sweetness is far superior to that of greenhouse watermelons from Japan. This may not be the king of watermelons, but it's not far off."

The people of Chongguo are fortunate; at least for most ordinary Chongguo residents, things like freedom are not particularly difficult to achieve. Chongguo's greatest strength lies in leveraging its technological and human advantages to drive down the price of things to rock-bottom levels. The watermelon production consumed by Chongguo residents each year accounts for a significant percentage of the world's total watermelon production. The people of Chongguo can truly be considered "watermelon-eating masses."
