Chapter 43: 043 That is his fate
"I don’t know Chief Lu," she said, "and I don’t understand what you’re saying."
Duan Shen intently stared at Song Lili’s face, meeting her eyes, "How old are you this year?"
"Twenty-one."
"What’s your name?"
"Tang Xiaohua."
"Who’s in your family?"
"My parents died early, I only have one younger brother."
"How did you know how to disarm a micro-bomb controller?"
"I read about it in a book."
After she finished speaking, the man holding the hammer raised his hand again, but Duan Shen quickly raised his hand to stop him, and the blow didn’t fall.
Duan Shen stood up, walked over to her, squat down, and pinched her chin, lifting her face,
"I told you, you won’t withstand three blows."
"I’m telling the truth."
"I developed the micro-bomb, and I made the controller myself. What book did you read about it from?"
"..."
Song Lili did not know who developed the micro-bomb, the book she saw had no detailed record of the inventor.
"With such great talent, it would be good to contribute to the national military."
Duan Shen slightly curled the corner of his mouth, "Like you ignorant students, dreaming of wearing military uniforms?"
"Isn’t that better than living a life that cannot withstand the light?"
"You know shit! Do you think people in military uniforms are the good guys? Do you think the national military is just? Do you think their actions are honorable? I’ll tell you, this country has long been corrupt! Those in power are monstrous, yet the stupid citizens still desperately support them."
The resentment, rage, and grudges in Duan Shen’s eyes gathered into a fiery blaze burning in those dark, murky pupils.
"The powerful are monstrous... aren’t you one too?"
"I was forced by them!"
Duan Shen roared at her,
"Duan Chen and I applied to the military academy together, my scores were better than his, my physical ability was better than his, my talents were better than his, but just because I accidentally injured an innocent civilian during a mission, they expelled me from the military, threw me out of the army!"
"That was war! Any hesitation could cost your own life! War is ruthless. How many innocent civilians are hurt by the military in those countries plagued with constant warfare? Who is held accountable?"
"Why, when it comes to me, do I receive the harshest punishment, guarded against like a criminal beyond redemption?"
"Because the reputation of the military cannot be destroyed, the dignity of the commanding officers cannot be lost, so even though they knew that those civilians caught up in war would certainly die, they still used me afterwards to give the public an explanation!"
"How many underhanded dealings happen during war? How few are the disgraceful acts done by soldiers and officers for medals?"
"This world is so unfair, yet no one stands up to say it’s wrong, no one dares to question!"
Duan Shen’s eyes were bloodshot, his expression was ferocious!
His extreme words made those around him who followed him also have red eyes, each one agitated as if deeply moved.
"Only children constantly cry about unfairness..."
Song Lili spoke lightly.
Her words suddenly cooled Duan Shen’s heated emotions, "What did you say?"
"I said, only children who never grow up cry about fairness."
"Say it again!"
"Only children who never mature cry about fairness!!"
"..."
In the damp, moldy air, there was silence.
Perhaps this person really had faced huge challenges and obstacles, but... having lost to the cruelty and unfairness of the world, he was a loser.
Duan Shen stood up,
"Keep her well guarded. I’m going to use this woman to exchange for all our brothers who were captured!"
"..."

"Mr. President..."
In the President Mansion, Liu Yuankai was reporting the latest developments in Xilin to Wen Nian,
"The fugitive Duan Shen posted a video online, but fortunately, it was discovered in time. The relevant departments directly intercepted it, preventing it from reaching the public eye."
Wen Nian’s eyes were stern.
"He directly called out to you, demanding you order the release of the rioters previously captured by the Xilin Military Region, otherwise he would return the hostage in pieces."
"..."
"Your Excellency... please watch it for yourself."
In the video, the man with bloodshot eyes, showing a savagely fierce expression, muttered something... Wen Nian didn’t pay much attention.
His gaze was tightly fixed on the blurred figure behind the man, leaning against the wall... covered in blood, gasping weakly.
His heart clenched...
That was his life.
