I, a Mental Patient, Was Chosen to Participate in AnalogHorror
Chapter 47: Cunning Device!

Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Cunning Device!

Can’t blame Director Wang for being so shocked.

These shameless beasts actually know how to apologize?

Their damn faces remain as shameless as ever.

Isn’t apologizing something you guys should be doing?

If apologies were useful, what would become of morality and human nature?

In summary, Sakura’s move is purely meant to disgust people!

"Director Wang, how should we reply to them?"

"How to reply?"

Director Wang snorted coldly.

"Reply my ass! We’re not qualified to accept their apology on behalf of our ancestors!"

That’s right, Ai Gong!

Right and wrong, credit and blame will be judged by posterity.

What public opinion, what condemnation, can all go to hell,

Truth lies only within the range of the big guns!

On the other side, Kameda Sadahide’s face twitched.

"Did they really reply to us like that?"

Xiao Cun Cilang’s face turned ugly as he nodded.

"Not only did they reject our request, they also cursed us out."

Alas, what should we do...

The pressure from the parliament is immense; they insist on saving Meichuan Neiku at all costs.

"Xiao Cun Cilang, you go, give them that thing, and increase the stakes!"

An S-class Chosen One is worth bleeding for!

...

Soon, the female secretary returned.

"Director Wang, they are willing to offer a Deceit Evil Pearl!"

In Analog Horror, there’s a chance to obtain some special gadgets that can be brought into reality.

Referred to collectively as Deceit Evil Pearl.

Sakura currently has one too, and it’s the only one in their country.

No one knows the exact function, but according to reports,

This thing can restore a city that has been invaded by the supernatural!

This is probably a one-time consumable. Sakura has never used it, not even when Spirit was invaded.

Now they actually want to use this treasure to exchange for a chance to save Meichuan Neiku with Jiang Xiao?

But from a strategic point of view, it’s understandable.

After all, the role of an S-class Chosen One can be more cost-effective than a one-time gadget.

One gadget could save a city, but a powerful Chosen One might clear Kaidan four or five times in a row.

The cost-effectiveness is clear~

"Director Wang? Save or not?"

To be honest, Director Wang truly doesn’t want to save little Sakura.

Wished they’d all be wiped out.

Especially Meichuan Neiku, with the strong Five-limb Substitute Death Technique.

Next time in Kaidan, it will be hard to find a freak like the chest-haired man who ties himself up for kills.

But...

Such a good thing is hard for him not to be tempted by.

If it could revive a city’s vitality, it could give countless homeless people a place to belong.

Agree?

Or let them face their doom?

"Director Wang, they’ve increased the stakes again!"

Oh?

What else could possibly attract Dragon Country?

"They are willing to provide their latest secret photolithography technology!"

Director Wang scoffed, is this also considered a stake?

Given time, Dragon Country can easily surpass them in this field.

Trying to fob us off with such a thing is purely hocus-pocus.

"They also... they will also internationally admit their past mistakes and publicly apologize, all educational materials will be written according to the facts, shrines will all be destroyed, some extremists’ descendants will come to us and bow their heads to atone, and at the same time, they will hand over a secret list."

"And they also say, Meichuan Neiku after all belongs to the human faction, Analog Horror is the biggest problem we must face together at present, and we need to think bigger in our current situation."

Director Wang: ...

Who are they to tell us to think bigger?

But Director Wang had a better idea in mind.

"Like this, you tell them to first send the Deceit Evil Pearl over, then we will pass the message to Jiang Xiao, but we can’t guarantee he will definitely listen to us."

One must understand the depth and complexity of Dragon Country’s characters.

And with Jiang Xiao’s twisted Spirit state, who can guarantee he will act according to the hints?

Choosing a gadget over having Sakura turn over all stakes...

One reason is that it’s obviously not very realistic to let them give up all benefits before Jiang Xiao saves the person.

So we can only choose the best...

The second reason is because Director Wang has some reservations about apologies.

International issues like this could drag on for half a month to a month at least, if it’s longer, you’re out of luck for a few years.

And who knows if they’d go back on their word?

It’s well-known how a small piece of land behaves.

On the other hand, with the Deceit Evil Pearl~

Heh heh heh, once it’s in our Dragon Country’s hands, it’s ours~

"Hehehe..."

Seeing how sinisterly Director Wang was laughing, the female secretary couldn’t help shivering.

Seems like Sakura is about to be played by Director Wang.

...

Sakura’s boss barked in anger all night.

What does this mean?

Doesn’t it just mean that no matter what, I have to give them my Deceit Evil Pearl for nothing?

More than taking too much advantage, this is outright exploitation! Where in the world does this kind of thing happen!

"Robbery! This is robbery!"

The weak voice of Xiao Cun Cilang reminded from below.

"Prime Minister, it’s not their fault, after all, Jiang Xiao is a lunatic, they really can’t guarantee... and if you talk about robbery..."

After all, as soon as Dragon Country alerted Jiang Xiao, they would definitely use up one opportunity to alert him.

It’s not like they should bear the risk for our cherry blossoms, right?

You say it’s robbery?

Why don’t you talk about our own beastly behavior before?

The members of the parliament held an emergency meeting and agreed... they could accept!

In the end, the Prime Minister Kameda Sadahide was arranged to make a midnight visit to Dragon Country.

It’s better to talk in person, this is no small matter.

As a country of ceremonies, Dragon Country.

Director Wang could only wait here with a gloomy face for his arrival.

Cherry blossoms are really silly, can’t things be dealt with tomorrow?

It’s not the cherry blossoms’ fault for being in a hurry.

Mainly because Meichuan Neiku could no longer be put off!

The chest-haired man just went at it wildly.

If not stopped, Meichuan Neiku might lose another limb by tomorrow.

One k’un and one arm are already gone.

Another limb?

Even if the chest-haired man let him go, the severely disabled Meichuan Neiku might not survive the remaining days of Kaidan.

That’s why the cherry blossoms came all flustered.

Prime Minister Kameda Sadahide, who just alighted from the helicopter, had a face even uglier than Director Wang.

"F*ck, you have a saying, ’Those who are diligent in their service are...’"

"Just shut it! Your saliva drips like old hairspray every time you open your big mouth; don’t talk nonsense here without a clue."

Director Wang cut him off directly, with an incredibly assertive attitude.

"Moreover, we’ve already made our conditions very clear, just like that."

Right, can’t haggle like an old lady in the market...

Otherwise, if one gives in, it’s hard to know if the other party would grow suspicious.

Kameda Sadahide’s chest heaved with intense emotion, the anger in his heart!

He had come to Dragon Country in the dead of night, and the only welcome he received was from the head of the Weird Tales Department?

Just the head of the Weird Tales Department?

That might be fine, but he didn’t even finish speaking before he was rebuffed?!

If it wasn’t for Xiao Cun Cilang, who came with him, holding him back,

He might have had a go at the buzz-cut man right in front of him!

Xiao Cun Cilang knew they were the ones asking for a favor, so he immediately bowed to Director Wang in place of Kameda.

"We’re not here to haggle, we just want to see with our own eyes how you operate all of this."

Hmm, this flunky seems somewhat human, and his Mandarin is pretty good.

"Fine, I can understand that."

After all, what’s being traded isn’t some ordinary trifle, it’s normal for them to be worried.

This brain-dead Kameda opens his mouth just to put on an act.

But he forgot the ball is in Dragon Country’s court; can he play the role of a pink bubble potty?!

"Where’s the item? You didn’t come empty-handed, did you?"

Xiao Cun Cilang reluctantly pulled out the little black box he had been keeping close inside his jacket.

"Actually, the news we spread was somewhat exaggerated..."

Director Wang frowned.

"What do you mean? You’re bluffing me?"

"No, no, no, it’s just that its effect isn’t as great as the rumors suggest. It can’t restore a city to its former state, but it can shorten the time of the weird event by half, and also weaken the destructiveness of the weirdness by half."

Xiao Cun Cilang knew that the other party would definitely go to the database in the Analog Horror live broadcast room for comparison, so he decided to just be upfront.

How to put it, somewhat disappointed, but it’s acceptable.

Even these two effects could save countless people.

The box was beautifully made by Cherry Blossom Country, albeit a bit small and delicate.

Director Wang carefully opened it to discover a small bead inside.

This is... holy shit!!

With a ’snap,’ Director Wang slammed the box shut!

It was only because he was good-natured that he didn’t throw away the box entirely!

There was a black fog swirling around the bead.

Although he had never entered Analog Horror, Director Wang could guarantee—

This thing and the black fog from Analog Horror that erodes the chosen ones are the same substance!

Seeing that Director Wang didn’t collapse in fear,

Kameda’s face looked somewhat unpleasant.

When he had first received it, he had almost cried with fright, flinging the bead away more than ten meters!

"Don’t be nervous, Director Wang, it can’t harm us."

Xiao Cun Cilang explained.

Stating that the fog always stayed within the bead, undissipated, and the world’s toughest drills couldn’t break it open.

Director Wang snorted coldly; he knew these two definitely didn’t forget to remind him, they just wanted to see him make a fool of himself.

But his reaction must have disappointed them~

After verification with the database in the Analog Horror live broadcast room,

The item was genuine, named Deceit Evil Pearl.

The effects were also as Xiao Cun Cilang had stated.

"Director Wang, now that you’ve inspected the goods, can we start?"

"It’s the middle of the night, you really want me to contact Jiang Xiao now?"

Kameda and Cilang exchanged glances and slowly shook their heads.

Better wait for Jiang Xiao to wake up; who knows if the lunatic, once disturbed, would heed external advice?

Director Wang turned to go back to sleep, though there were only a few hours left.

But the two from Cherry Blossom Country had no intention of sleeping, steadfastly guarding the live broadcast room of Dragon Country.

At this moment, Jiang Xiao in the live broadcast room was sound asleep, his leg recklessly resting on Sun Wei’s body.

And the chosen ones from other countries were, if not dead asleep,

At the slightest movement from their wives, their hearts would tremble thrice.
