Chapter 136: Dangerous Heterodoxy Bureau

The bullet grazes past Bai Liu's eye and hits the wall behind him with a bang so strong that people outside start knocking on the door to ask what's going on, and Su Yang opens a small window to seriously warn Tang Er to fight.

" Tang Er hit, shooting in such a narrow room is totally looking for death, the shrapnel that bounces off can shoot through your head, you'd better not play this kind of suicide game in front of me, over and over again, you'll get yourself killed if you're not careful, what you have in your hand is a gun, not a toy. "Su Yang said coldly, "I won't collect your body if you play yourself to death."

Tang Er put the gun on the table carelessly, turning to Su Yang with a fake smile and holding up his hands to show that he wasn't playing with the gun.

As if in jest, he glanced diffidently at Bai Liu, who was sitting on the opposite side of the table, also unmoved, and tsked: "I just wanted to scare him, I didn't expect you to be scared, Captain Su, you don't need to be so concerned about this Bai Liu comrade."

"After all, both he and I shouldn't really care about things like dying or not dying." Tang Er snickers and moves closer to Bai Liu , raises an eyebrow and lowers his voice a bit muffled, "It's not like we haven't died before, don't you think so, Bai Liu?"

Su Yang didn't hear Tang Er's words after he typed them, but just glared at him with a warning look in her eyes, lowered the small window, and said something about nothing to the crew outside.

"You do have to die, but not now, and not in the Heretic Treatment Bureau, where your death would be troublesome." Tang Er hit lift the wrinkled eyelids, "It's not the first time I've killed you, Bai Liu, so if you don't want to die that early with no way to earn money, you'd better be honest about what the solution to the dried rose leaves Wa Si on the table is."

Tang Er hit disliked the glass bottle with the muzzle of his gun as he spoke, that familiar yet disgusted look on his face, "This stuff quickly became popularized all over the globe after it had been around for a while, and everyone had roses growing out of their eyes."

"People who don't have the money to buy this stuff wither on the side of the street, and the neighborhoods of slums and low-cost housing are full of wilted petals of flesh and blood, while the roses in the eyes of the rich get to flourish, and in the end everyone traffics in the making and production of this stuff, and we can't even find out where it came from, and this time it's just as inexplicable as ever."

"I'm sick of this stuff, but you're into this kind of stuff, aren't you, Bai Liu?" Tang Er hit gaze fixed on Bai Liu.

"What makes you think I'm related to this Rose Wa Si?" Bai Liu asked back without skipping a beat, "And there must be a solution to this thing?"

"Because in one of the timelines where I caught you, you did help us at the Heresy Disposal Bureau with this." Tang Er typed.

Bai Liu reacted quickly to catch the gist of Tang Er's punch line, "I'm not going to do your work for free just because you caught me trying to kill me and you paid me?"

Tang Er hit that expression that looked like he'd swallowed a thousand flies alive, and eventually he waved his hand and admitted with a bit of a stifled sigh, "Tch, yes, quite a bit was given, and you ended up being acquitted in that timeline because of your outstanding contribution to solving this Rose Dried Leaf Wa Si."

He looked down at Bai Liu with no emotion in his gaze, "Even though all of us knew that you must be connected to this thing, we let you go because there was no direct evidence that you profited from it."

"All we could get was circumstantial evidence of your connection with Wa Si, the dried rose leaf, and we knew clearly that the source of this item was you, and you didn't deny that, but because you had no direct evidence of profiting from this item, ultimately, at Su Yang's insistence, he found you not guilty of this matter, and so you couldn't be arrested, and you were let go away."

"A year later, the vendor of this stuff is even opening a retail store outside the Heresy Authority, and the whole world is dying corpses because of this stuff." Tang Er hit silence for a second, "That timeline Su Yang's parents died at home because they couldn't buy dried rose leaves Wa Si, Su Yang entered the game in order to revive her parents."

Bai Liu's eyes fell on the rose-colored perfume: "It really doesn't fit my profit-making outlook."

Tang Er hit his gaze extremely harshly swept over, his face is a very sharp sneer: ''You still have the Mouli view? Don't you want whatever money you can get? Because you were acquitted, this thing was grayed legal in a way."

"Those manufacturers claimed that this perfume is the same thing as cigarettes and will not be fatal except for a small percentage of allergic people, because your exoneration brought them great convenience in marketing and promoting this perfume early on, and they handed you a large sum of money for it, and I didn't see you refuse, did you?"

"Yes, I shouldn't be able to refuse to the money that is delivered to my hand, but I wouldn't have introduced this addictive perfume if I already had those positions and resources you mentioned in that timeline." Bai Liu reaches for the small rose-colored glass vial and peers at it in a focused fingertip, "Because under the addictive exploitation of this perfume, a resource like people is non-renewable and disposable, like a rose that can only bloom once and then wilt."

"This is the lowest level of capital exploitation, it's so stupid." Bai Liu faintly raised his head to Tang Er to fight, "I prefer leeks to roses because leeks are renewable."

"If I were a being that could permanently exploit the lower classes, then I wouldn't easily harvest them completely, I would nurture them well, give them the space and resources to grow so they could always regenerate, turning them into roses would be too extravagant, and it's not my preferred way of amassing wealth."

Tang Er typed: "......"

No matter how many times I see Bai Liu, the man's bullshit and brainwashing skills remain intact.

"I don't care if you like roses or leeks, you'd better give me an honest account of your solution to this what's-his-name Rose Wa Si." Tang Er hit a very hypocritical and polite laugh, "Also, the room we have here is specially made by me with props to isolate all evil things including that coin, even if you swallow the coin, you can't enter the game."

He patted Bai Liu's face slowly with the gun, his smile growing kinder, "I have all the time and means to take my time with you, old friend."

"Captain Tang, so am I, a prisoner of this timeline, qualified to ask you one last question?" Bai Liu raised his eyes and looked straight into Tang Er fight's eyes, "If you managed to kill me in other timelines, then in this timeline, I'm just an ordinary person, why didn't you kill me as soon as you came to this timeline, but waited until this Wa Si appeared before you came over to me?"

"Because I thought you were dead." Tang Er hit gazed deeply at Bai Liu, "I was going to kill you before you grew up, so I followed the clues I got in the other timelines to find the private orphanage you were supposed to be in, the place you hadn't grown up to stay in yet."

"In every timeline I've experienced and checked, you grew up in that private orphanage that abused children, and I've found traces of your existence there almost every time, but this time, the director there told me that Bai Liu died at the age of fourteen from swallowing coins, and you're actually dead?"

Tang Er hits a two-second pause here.

"After you grew up you dragged out almost all the investors and directors of that orphanage who caused your childhood tragedy and dragged them into the game, all these people died horribly, you didn't kill them yourself, you just induced them to enter the game through various ways and let them die in the monsters are tearing them apart, Bai Liu, you've always been this smart in doing bad things, we It's hard to catch any handles and traces, checking you is quite a difficult thing."

Tang Er hit said here expression somewhat out of focus, his fingertips on the desktop unconsciously tapped twice: "You can not be so easy to die, I completely do not believe that you died, in the case of you into the game, suffering should be other people right, you will actually be tortured by these investors to commit suicide, this is not at all something you would do out of the things. "

"But every trace I've found proves that this kid who killed himself for some reason is sedated to be you."

Tang Er hit lit another cigarette, he didn't look at Bai Liu, his eyes fell laxly at a certain point in the room, "I didn't even think there would be another you in this timeline."

Slowly he moved his eyes to Bai Liu's face.

Tang Er hit and Bai Liu stared straight at each other across the smoke, "This timeline actually has a version of Bai Liu who grew up in a public orphanage, changed his name, didn't touch anything evil at all, and looked as if he hadn't done anything bad at all in twenty-five years, and lived to see a laid-off employee."

"It's something that couldn't possibly happen to an asshole like you, you simply wouldn't have tolerated yourself in such a low cost effective money making position for so long." Tang Er hit a deep inhale over his lungs for a puff of smoke, which he exhaled indistinctly, shaking the ash from his fingertips, "Working for someone else as a social animal at a low wage? I'd wake up laughing in my dreams if I dreamed of a day like that for you assholes."

"This is torture tailor-made for you, worse than killing you, and I don't know how you put up with it."

Tang Er hit continued, "Given the slightest chance, you will become a money-grubbing machine with no conscience whatsoever, will domesticate and own the world's most feared and loyal criminal gangs, and then become a trained gold-gobbling syndicate, with all the world's riches dropping like an old wallet with a leak in it, into the long-open hands of a vagabond like you. "

Tang Er hits the table, his gaze deep as he takes a drag on his cigarette and exhales through his nose.

One by one, the smoke rings float in front of Bai Liu's eyes, and Bai Liu's face turns slightly sideways, his breathing rate slowing down a bit.

Tang Er hit with a sudden, oddly, delightful laugh, "Yes, you hate the smell of smoke, and to see you forced to stay in an environment you don't like for so long is really-"

"--than killing you with my own hands."
