Chapter 152 Omniscience × Precognition
Zhou Mian signed a contract with Tong Ming.
The transaction condition proposed by Zhou Mian was that Tong Ming needed to help Zhou Mian's grandmother find a legal and compliant liver source and use normal medical means to prolong his grandmother's life.
If grandma dies, the transaction will automatically terminate.
Tong Ming was very satisfied with this. In fact, he knew very well that even if a suitable liver source was found, Zhou Mian's grandmother would not live long. Besides, Zhou Mian had no intention of using supernatural means to treat his grandmother. Therefore, the duration of the transaction would most likely be controlled within one year.
Not too much, not too little, just right.
After a year, he must have been tired of playing with Zhou Mian's body.
For Tong Ming, this was truly a great deal.
The contract was signed in Tong Ming's villa. Tong Ming stared closely at Zhou Mian's movements, watching him sign his name at the end of the contract stroke by stroke, with an expressionless face.
This human soul will be mine.
The moment this thought flashed through Tong Ming's mind, his emotions surged to the point of almost overflowing, as if they had gathered into a mighty wave that drowned all his rationality.
This kind of extreme excitement used to only occur when he got a glimpse of shocking gossip.
However, now, just getting the soul of an ordinary human being made him so excited.
Tong Ming attributed everything to unsatisfied lust. New and novel things always make people unforgettable, don’t they?
With the final touch, the contract was established.
Tong Ming was like a dog that smelled meat. The moment the contract was signed, he immediately tore off his elegant and calm mask, revealing his true face. He forcefully trapped Zhou Mian between himself and the sofa, and while feverishly sniffing the scent of the human's neck, he ordered Zhou Mian in a firm tone: "Take off the feathers."
Zhou Mian didn't expect Tong Ming to be so impatient. He was shrouded in the shadow cast by Tong Ming. His fingers trembled slightly as he touched the feathers on his body, and he suddenly felt a little guilty.
Captain Feng tried every means to save him from Tong Ming, but he took the initiative to give himself to Tong Ming.
It doesn’t matter, Zhou Mian thought with self-disgust, people like him are not worthy of anyone’s rescue.
Zhou Mian has already decided that after his grandmother passes away, he will leave with her.
He was so tired that death might be the best destination for him.
Let Tong Ming treat him like waste, destroy his body and dignity, and then Zhou Mian can rush to the end of death more resolutely and without any regrets.
Under Tong Ming's burning gaze, Zhou Mian tremblingly took off the feathers as if he was taking off his only protective shield.
With a sacrificial gesture, he sent a signal to Tong Ming that he could taste it at will.
For evil perpetrators, this silent invitation is an irresistible temptation.
Tong Ming was extremely excited. Now he finally understood why his brother was so passionate about this.
It's really interesting.
Tong Ming leaned towards Zhou Mian wantonly, and without saying a word, he fiercely kissed the human he had worked so hard to get. Perhaps it was because the kiss was too hard, but Zhou Mian's eyes were red and his eyes were filled with tears, looking like he had been bullied miserably.
Tong Ming stared at Zhou Mian curiously. Zhou Mian had a pair of dark brown eyes, which were different from the eyes of countless humans. Zhou Mian liked to keep his eyes half-closed. Except for the occasional tiredness, most of the time, his eyes were as calm as a lake.
But now.
Tong Ming saw that those eyes were a mixture of sadness, emptiness, and other broken things.
The tears that fell from Zhou Mian's eyes were like some randomly cut diamonds, sparkling with a colorful brilliance that Tong Ming had never seen before.
Tong Ming couldn't help but move closer and taste the tears. Human tears were still a little warm and slightly salty.
Quanzhi suddenly felt a little unhappy. He really wanted Zhou Mian's tears, but not the kind of tears soaked in endless sadness.
"Zhou Mian, I haven't even started bullying you yet, why are you crying like this?" Tong Ming frowned slightly: "You are actually a crybaby, right?"
Zhou Mian didn't answer. He just slowly raised his arms, awkwardly covered his face with them, and cried silently.
Zhou Mian didn't know what was wrong with him. He had clearly given up everything, abandoned his dignity, and even decided to give up his life. Why was he still losing his composure like this?
Zhou Mian didn't want to look so embarrassed in front of Tong Ming, and he didn't want Tong Ming to see his vulnerability. At this moment, he just wanted the gate knife above his head to fall quickly so that he could completely become a handful of mud in the hands of fate.
So he spoke, his voice trembling as he said to Tong Ming: "You want to do it, right? Go ahead."
"You started crying so early and cried all the water away. What else can I do?" Tong Ming's face was gloomy, and he stepped back: "Boring."
After saying that, Tong Ming really left Zhou Mian and went away. This was something Zhou Mian had never expected. He thought that after signing the contract, Tong Ming would treat him even more unscrupulously.
But Tong Ming actually let him go.
Zhou Mian couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't think deeply about it at the moment. He curled up on the sofa, resting his face on his arms, his shoulders trembling slightly, letting the negative emotions eat away at him without any struggle.
Unexpectedly, Tong Ming came back not long after.
Following Tong Ming back were a few panicked cat meows.
Zhou Mian was stunned for a moment when he heard the sudden cat's meow. He turned his head and saw Tong Ming holding a long-haired cow cat in one hand and a cat toy in the other. When he saw him looking at him, he threw the cow cat onto the sofa, stuffed the cat toy into his hand, and then walked away with a sour face.
"?" Zhou Mian took the cat toy and slowly sat up. He looked at the cow cat with innocent eyes and was a little dazed.
After staring at each other for three seconds, the cow cat walked over and purred on Zhou Mian's thighs. Zhou Mian subconsciously touched the cat's head, not understanding how things turned out like this.
He hesitated for a while, then turned his gaze away from Tong Ming who was leaving and turned to the cow cat that was stepping on his body for milk.
"Secretary Wu, aren't you going to work today?"
The Cow Cat purred and said, "It's night time now. I'm off work."
"Then how did you become a child?"
"Dean Tong said if I could help him coax someone, he would buy me a bag of Supreme Royal Cat Food 2.0," Master Cat said, pumping his milk vigorously. "I don't care about cat food or not, I just enjoy helping others."
Zhou Mian couldn't help but smile with tears in his eyes and patted the cat's head: "Thank you, Secretary Cat."
It was Secretary Wu who noticed that he hadn't eaten and brought him food. Hello, cat.
However, why did Tong Ming think of asking Secretary Wu to coax him?
Zhou Mian was in a daze. He felt that everything that happened today was so fantastic that it made his head dizzy and unable to think any further.
Wusa twitched the tips of his ears. His bright yellow eyes were round, and with the clever fur on his ears, he was indeed a very pretty long-haired cow cat.
When Zhou Mian was very young, his family had a big yellow dog. He played with the dog every day. Then one Chinese New Year, the dog disappeared.
It appeared on the New Year’s Eve dinner table.
Later, grandma wanted to buy a new little yellow dog, but Zhou Mian refused because he was afraid that the little yellow dog would be eaten when it grew up.
Cats are different. They won’t be eaten by greedy uncles.
So for a while, Zhou Mian really wanted to have a cat as beautiful as Wusa.
Ultimately, it wasn't realized.
Zhou Mian played with Wusa with the cat toy for a while and experienced a little of the joy of raising a cat.
"Owning a cat isn't actually that fun." Wusa sat on Zhou Mian's lap, licking his paws, and recounting his crimes: "Cats are bad. They chew charging cables, making it impossible to work. They shed fur quietly, making it embarrassing to wear fur-stained clothes outside. They deliberately do parkour at night, keeping people awake."
The cat’s crimes are too numerous to list, but Zhou Mian thinks it is even cuter.
"Secretary Wu, how did you become a monster?"
Wusa told Zhou Mian about his relationship with his poop scooper Qin Xiu. When they were having a good time chatting, he took out his cell phone and added Zhou Mian as a friend.
Not long after, Qin Xiu came to look for the cat. Wu Sa said goodbye to Zhou Mian, and finally stole a glance at Tong Ming in the kitchen. He whispered to Zhou Mian, "If you feel wronged, come to me. I'll tell the principal, and the principal will take care of Dean Tong."
Zhou Mian smiled and said "hmm", his mood was no longer as depressed as before.
As soon as Wusa left, he and Tong Ming were the only ones left in the villa.
Tong Ming had been tinkering in the kitchen for a long time. Zhou Mian was stunned for a while, and then he saw Tong Ming coming out with the dishes.
The meal of three dishes and one soup was so sumptuous that Zhou Mian was surprised.
Zhou Mian originally thought that all of Tong Ming's previous acts of sending food and warmth were just tricks to trick him into signing the contract. After the contract was signed, Tong Ming would never continue to pretend.
Deception and going back on one's word are the nature of monsters. Zhou Mian could never have imagined that Tong Ming would actually cook for humans himself.
"Don't think I'm cooking for you because I think you're important," Tong Ming pulled off his apron and said sarcastically, "Look at how skinny you are. You feel like you're all bones. I'm cooking for the feel of my hands, understand?"
Zhou Mian looked at him with mixed feelings, but didn't bother with the food. He picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
The emotion came and went quickly. With Wusa's interruption, Zhou Mian's rationality began to return, and the belated embarrassment took over again. Zhou Mian thought of his previous loss of composure and the words inviting Tong Ming. He couldn't help but bury his head, wishing he could bury his head in the bowl.
Fortunately, Tong Ming didn't notice his embarrassment for the time being. He just sat across from him and talked loudly: "From now on, you will live with me. I will take care of your food, clothing, housing and transportation. You only need to use your body to satisfy the creditor's desires."
Zhou Mian choked and almost spit out the soup in his mouth.
"no."
After a long while, Zhou Mian, who had barely stopped coughing, spoke again and rejected Tong Ming's ridiculous proposal: "I still have to go to work, so I can only come over at night."
Tong Ming was incredulous: "You still want to go to work? Zhou Mian, are you a masochist? Why do you have to rush to be a dog for the Heresy Monitoring Bureau!"
Zhou Mian said calmly, "I have also signed a labor contract with the Heresy Monitoring Bureau."
"You're comparing a labor contract to a weird contract?!"
Zhou Mian pursed his lips slightly: "The contract doesn't say I can't work, nor does it say I have to live with you 24 hours a day."
The contract doesn't mention this, but we can't do anything that is not prohibited by law!
Tong Ming denounced Zhou Mian for exploiting loopholes in the contract and playing word games, but Zhou Mian remained unmoved. After finishing his meal, he wiped his mouth, ignored the furious Tong Ming, and left.
He needs to calm down.
Zhou Mian took a shower and tried to analyze the current situation.
Because of his momentary emotions, he signed a contract with Tong Ming, which stipulated that for a period of time in the future, the ownership of his body and even his soul would belong to Tong Ming.
The contract has been signed, and it is too late to regret now. Moreover, in Zhou Mian's opinion, the worst case scenario is death after losing all dignity, which is still within an acceptable range.
Zhou Mian was tired of thinking about what would happen tomorrow. Life was already so bad, it didn't matter if it got any worse.
Zhou Mian walked out of the bathroom and found Tong Ming already sitting by the bed waiting for him.
There were no signs of life in Tong Ming's bedroom. The furniture was mainly black, white and grey, and the lighting was extremely dim. It looked more like a gloomy monster's lair than a bedroom.
The moment he walked in here, Zhou Mian felt as if he was being stared at by countless pairs of eyes. A chill quickly came over him and he couldn't help but pause.
Tong Ming had already lost his patience, staring at him with the fierce gaze of a jackal: "Come here."
Zhou Mian took a deep breath and walked over obediently. He heard Tong Ming order him again: "Take off your bathrobe."
Zhou Mian took a moment to react, then slowly placed his fingers on the straps of his bathrobe. Tong Ming started to get dissatisfied again, urging him through gritted teeth: "Zhou Mian, are you defusing a bomb? Hurry up!"
Zhou Mian remained indifferent: "This is my speed, why are you in such a hurry?"
Tong Ming was so angry that he pulled him over and manually helped him speed up.
The bathrobe and its straps fell to the ground one after another. This time, Tong Ming did not use anything to restrain Zhou Mian. He let the human sit on his knees, and changed his speed of swallowing the human whole as he did the first time, and carefully savored every inch of the human's skin.
Zhou Mian couldn't stand it anymore. He just wanted to end the battle quickly and get the job done, but Tong Ming was dragging his feet, which made him feel uncomfortable all over.
He panted and couldn't help but urge Tong Ming: "Hurry up!"
Tong Ming immediately uttered dirty words maliciously: "Itchy, right? Don't be impatient, we will definitely be satisfied with Xiao Zhou in a moment."
"Zhou Mian had a faint desire to die.
The Omniscient One peeks into all the secrets in the world. He understands the inferiority of human nature and knows how to use countless dirty words. Every word he says can accurately crush the shame of human beings.
"Our Xiao Zhou's body is very sensitive. He can't stand a kiss."
"Do you like being kissed here or there?"
"Your eyes are red, are you going to cry again?"
Zhou Mian was a little angry and said, "Stop talking!"
Can't Tong Ming just shut his filthy mouth!
Tong Ming certainly wouldn't miss the opportunity to tease Zhou Mian with words. Just like there is always an appetizer before a main meal, Tong Ming was happy to savor Zhou Mian's shame.
In the end, Zhou Mian didn't know how he spent the night.
Tong Ming did not treat him cruelly as Zhou Mian had expected, and he didn't even use his eyes. However, the intimate contact with someone was still so unfamiliar that it terrified Zhou Mian.
Tong Ming disliked Zhou Mian's poor physique and inability to withstand strenuous exercise, so he decided to nourish his body. So the next day, Zhou Mian ate the nutritious breakfast carefully prepared by Tong Ming, and went out numbly and in a trance.
No matter what, you still have to go to class.
Tong Ming strongly disapproved of Zhou Mian continuing to work at the Heresy Monitoring Bureau, but he could not resist Zhou Mian's firm will.
"If you want a puppet that obeys you in everything, why don't you just ask your fourth brother to make one for you?"
Tong Ming was persuaded by Zhou Mian.
He tried every possible means to get Zhou Mian, wasn't it because he was attracted by Zhou Mian's rebelliousness?
He could attend classes, but surveillance was inevitable. When Zhou Mian went out, he was forced to wear Tong Ming's glasses.
Zhou Mian didn't care whether he was monitored or not. His life was unremarkable and Tong Ming would probably get tired of seeing him soon. There was nothing to worry about.
After signing the contract with Tong Ming, life didn't get worse, but it was still a little different.
Tong Ming is undoubtedly a weird person with a strong desire for control. He not only wants to firmly control Zhou Mian's food, clothing, housing and transportation, but also monitors Zhou Mian 24 hours a day to ensure that he knows everything Zhou Mian says and does outside.
Zhou Mian soon discovered that Tong Ming knew everything clearly, including who he had met during the day, what he had said to others, and even what he had looked at for a few seconds while walking on the street.
His life was permeated in all aspects, but Zhou Mian didn't think it was a big deal. He just felt that Tong Ming was going crazy.
The official business at Nightmare University is so busy, and Tong Ming actually spends his energy on him. Isn't that crazy?
Speaking of Nightmare University, Nightmare University recently launched a new project called Fengdu Ghost City. The Heresy Monitoring Bureau was facing a major enemy and formulated a series of actions to prevent the opening of Fengdu Ghost City, but unfortunately failed.
Tong Ming was extremely busy with the Fengdu Ghost City project and no longer pestered him every night. Zhou Mian was finally able to rest and had a few good nights of sleep in Tong Ming's nest.
After Fengdu Ghost Town was opened, Tong Ming became free and started to bother Zhou Mian again.
"What are you doing?"
Zhou Mian was dizzy and didn't immediately understand what Tong Ming was saying.
"Yes, sit up." Tong Ming shook Zhou Mian's shoulders to sober him up a little: "That's not right, Zhou Mian, it seems like I've been serving you all along. You can't just sit there and not move, right? Who is the creditor after all?"
After understanding the subtext of Tong Ming's statement, Zhou Mian opened his eyes wide and looked at Tong Ming in disbelief.
Doing this kind of thing with Tong Ming is already Zhou Mian's limit. It is absolutely impossible for him to take the initiative.
"Strictly speaking," Zhou Mian had to correct Tong Ming, "we should be conjugate creditors. Before you ask me for anything, think about whether you have fulfilled the contract seriously and whether you have made an effort to help my grandmother find a liver donor."
Tong Ming was shocked by Zhou Mian's remarks. He choked for a moment before defending himself, "I'm looking for it! You want someone who is both legal and voluntary, and a perfect match. How can I find one so quickly?"
Zhou Mian looked at him and said calmly: "Oh, then it was not found."
Tong Ming: “”
"Is this the power of omniscience?" Zhou Mian said slowly, "Nothing more than that."
Tong Ming: “”
Tong Ming was speechless and couldn't bring himself to ask Zhou Mian for help. However, Tong Ming was still unwilling to give up and was thinking about finding a chance to trick Zhou Mian.
Zhou Mian has always been introverted and has a strong sense of shame. If Zhou Mian takes the initiative, he will definitely be able to enjoy more interesting reactions.
Zhou Mian retorted a few words to Tong Ming, and he felt much better. He had to retort a shameless weirdo like Tong Ming, otherwise he would easily be bullied.
Anyway, he can't take the initiative.
However, this firm idea was soon broken.
The reason was that he and Tong Ming were telling fortunes for players in Fengdu Ghost City. Tong Ming pointed out the burial place of a child to a father who was looking for his child, but the price was to take the father's life.
Zhou Mian didn't want to see the father die, so he tried to beg Tong Ming to spare his life.
Then Tong Ming made that unreasonable request again.
Zhou Mian only thought about it for a few seconds before agreeing.
If this can save one life, it is actually worth it.
In fact, Zhou Mian could never have imagined that Tong Ming was willing to give up the meat at his fingertips for such a small matter.
For a monster, is momentary pleasure more important than food?
Zhou Mian couldn't figure it out.
They switched positions and he sat on Tong Ming's waist, not knowing where to start first.
Tong Ming urged him maliciously: "Kiss first, kiss first!"
Zhou Mian was disturbed by his thoughts and felt upset. He had to pretend to be serious and said, "Don't talk. I have my own rhythm."
Tong Ming found it very interesting, so he said patiently, "Okay, please."
Zhou Mian thought about it, then leaned down awkwardly and kissed Tong Ming's neck first. The next second, his hands that were holding Tong Ming's waist suddenly tightened. He saw the deep gaze that Tong Ming gave him, which seemed to be filled with an unknown fire.
Zhou Mian paused, closed his eyes, and kissed her regardless.
A mess isn't enough to describe what happened next.
Zhou Mian moved forward awkwardly, his whole body extremely stiff. Tong Ming's throat rolled over, and he urged him unwillingly: "Xiao Zhou, say something quickly!"
Zhou Mian asked absentmindedly, "What did you say?"
"Like, bloating, discomfort, and so on."
""
Tong Ming dared to speak, but Zhou Mian didn't dare to respond.
He closed his eyes, held his breath and sank down. The world was finally quiet.
Zhou Mian's physical strength is very poor. Although Tong Ming has gained some weight on his body during this period, it cannot change the reality that Zhou Mian is weak.
Soon Zhou Mian was too exhausted to continue, and Tong Ming immediately took over the show until Zhou Mian's eyes were swollen from crying.
"Didn't I say I would do it?" Zhou Mian said weakly.
Tong Ming hugged Zhou Mian tightly in his arms, leaving no room for him to move. "Why are you coming? You only have so much energy, save it for crying."
Zhou Mian kicked him under the quilt. Tong Ming clamped his legs and threatened in a deep voice: "You still have the strength, right?"
Zhou Mian didn't dare to move.
Tong Ming came over and kissed him again. It was so sticky and intimate that it confused Zhou Mian's mind and made him unable to think normally.
Just before going to bed, Zhou Mian remembered something and asked Tong Ming, despite being sleepy: "That player..."
"I'll tell him that someone has already paid the price for him." Tong Ming touched Zhou Mian's thin wrist and asked in confusion, "Zhou Mian, why are you so kind that you're willing to help even a stranger?"
Zhou Mian felt relieved after hearing what he said, and replied vaguely: "Because I am not living well, I want others to live well."
Tong Ming whispered in his ear, "Zhou Mian, you're a little idiot. You have the ability to predict the future, so why don't you predict the lottery numbers? Otherwise, you would have improved your grandmother's life a long time ago. Why would you have to sell yourself to the Heresy Monitoring Bureau?"
Zhou Mian replied sleepily, "The lottery ticket has its own owner, the human race, and its own destiny, including my grandmother."
He cannot interfere with other people's fate just because he wants to help his grandmother change her fate.
Tong Ming scolded him again in his ear: "Humph, you are so kind, but you don't seem to be very lucky. It seems that God does not favor kind people."
Zhou Mian turned over in his arms and yawned: "Don't make noise, I want to sleep."
Tong Ming shut his mouth in frustration.
What on earth is so worthy of Zhou Mian's concern about that group of insignificant humans?
When Zhou Mian was frightened, no one came to his aid. When Zhou Mian was bullied, humans watched coldly.
Why does Zhou Mian still side with humans and want to save humans?
At this moment, Tong Ming strangely empathized with Cen Xun.
The same thing happened with the guy surnamed Feng. He insisted on being the savior and didn't allow Cen Xun to slaughter humans. At that time, he didn't understand why Cen Xun didn't kick Feng Jihan out immediately. Now, Tong Ming seemed to understand a little bit.
I can't bear to kill him, but I'm unwilling to let him go. Maybe if I can prove that humans are hopeless, the other party will come to their senses?
But Zhou Mian is different from Feng Jihan.
Feng Jihan has a genetic lock that has trapped his mind since birth and given him the determination to protect humanity.
As for Zhou Mian, the person Zhou Mian cares about most is only his grandmother, nothing more.
As for other humans, Zhou Mian just wanted to help them if he could.
Tong Ming stared at Zhou Mian's sleeping face and made a decision.
It is not enough to get Zhou Mian's soul and body, Tong Ming also wants to get Zhou Mian's heart.
He wanted Zhou Mian to only look at him and think about him in his eyes and heart.
All of you insignificant humans, get out of here.
At this point, Tong Ming really couldn't tell whether it was possessiveness or competitiveness that was at work.
Tong Ming excitedly told Cen Xun about this. Cen Xun calmly took a sip of tea before slowly making a diagnosis: "You're in trouble. You've fallen in love."
Tong Ming swore solemnly: "Impossible! I have my own rhythm and will never be fooled by a little human!"
Secretary Wu heard this and sighed, "Once you're involved with humans, your life is set. While others are enjoying themselves, you open your eyes and just look for humans, coax them, and protect them. Even your dreams are filled with how to raise humans. Dean Tong, listen to me and quit as soon as possible!"
Tong Ming sneered: "I don't understand what you are saying. Do you think I am looking for my own ancestors? You are totally wrong. When I win Zhou Mian's heart, I will make him put aside his pride and only know how to revolve around me."
Cen Xun said coldly, "You've fallen in love."
Tong Ming: "Haha, that's ridiculous. Would I fall in love with a human? Impossible. I just lust after his body and happen to be a little interested in him personally. Once I've had enough fun with him, I'll kick him out sooner or later."
Secretary Wu said earnestly: "Just quit."
Tong Ming: "What do you mean by quitting? I'm not obsessed with Zhou Mian at all! I observe Zhou Mian every day, just because I'm afraid he's eating behind my back. He's in poor health, and if he keeps eating junk food, how many years will he have left? I just want to play with him for a few more years!"
Cen Xun uttered a word indifferently: "Love."
Tong Ming collapsed: "Damn! Brother, how come you turned into a humanoid? Is there still normal weirdness in this nightmare university?"
Secretary Wu: "Okay!"
Tong Ming: “”
Tong Ming went back to find a liver source for Grandma Zhou Mian.
As they got along, Tong Ming felt more and more that Zhou Mian was a typical person who was tough on the outside but soft on the inside. That day, he went to the mountain village with his fourth brother to catch the [Walker]. Zhou Mian knew that his eyes could not bear the amount of information in the mountain village, and was afraid that he would faint, so he let him put in his backpack. Even his fourth brother had never been so attentive to him.
While nestling in Zhou Mian's backpack, Tong Ming squeezed out an eyeball from the zipper and secretly glanced at Zhou Mian, feeling his breath and the heat from his body, and suddenly a different feeling arose in his heart.
The author has something to say:
Zhou Mian: I signed the contract in self-abandonment and let me rot and stink completely, and then I will walk towards death alone!
Jinzhu Literature [crossed out]
It’s actually redemption literature.
My estimate was wrong. There should be another chapter that will talk a little bit about [fate].
