Chapter 158 Chaotic Block No. 13 (15) Only close friends can get together...
In this situation, Wei Wei actually felt a little grateful to a disgusting leader. Thanks to the years he worked at Heiou, he had developed the ability to remain calm even when faced with a huge disaster. In his heart, he was keeping vigil for Yin Mingwu, but his face was still smiling.
"I have also been castrated. Although I am not ashamed of it, I am not proud of it either. I definitely do not want to imitate His Majesty," Wei Wei lowered his head and smiled, "Besides, I don't even know that His Majesty was castrated."
An Ning didn't speak for a long time, looking at Wei Wei's expression inch by inch, and didn't find any flaws.
"Your voice is just like His Majesty's." An Ning was still staring at him. "The first time we met, I doubted your identity."
No wonder An Ning took extra care of him. This care was probably due to curiosity.
Wei Wei smiled again: "Perhaps this is my honor."
"Have you ever raised an octopus?" An Ning asked.
"No. I don't like octopus either." Wei Wei replied.
His arm was a little itchy, and He Luo was angrily sucking on Wei Wei's skin with a suction cup.
An Ning: "Then why do you call yourself 'I'?"
"I... I once met a boss who was extremely suspicious, narrow-minded, and paranoid. He liked to suppress and persecute his employees," Wei Wei scolded Yin Mingwu. "The environment was dangerous, so I had to lower my posture. Over time, I developed this habit."
You can guess what you want, anyway, he was the "Hualien Lord" 10 years ago, and the energy fluctuations of the black tower do not match.
An Ning remained silent and compared the energy fluctuations of the black tower with the energy fluctuations of His Majesty in the database.
Similarity 55%
You're worrying too much.
"What kind of person is Your Majesty?" Wei Wei thought about it again and again, and finally asked this question. In this copy, An Ning should be the person who knows Your Majesty best.
"He..." An Ning looked away from the screen, pondered for a long time, and said a strange word, "Sandwich."
Wei Wei: “This…”
"He looks solemn from a distance, but warm when you get close to him." An Ning stood up and rubbed his temples. "People who have never met him will think he is cold, arrogant, extravagant, and overbearing. After a while, you will find him quite approachable. If you get to know him for a longer time, you will definitely find... his core is empty."
The streets were still quiet, with breakfast stalls closing up one by one. Wei Wei returned home, holding on to his breath, stepping on the rotten vegetable leaves scattered all over the ground.
He lit his pipe and took a long drag.
Why is His Majesty so similar to him?
Eunuch, a common self-proclaimed name, raising octopuses... these are not common characteristics at all, and it is probably difficult to explain them with the word "coincidence".
Leaning back on the sofa, watching the smoke rising and gathering in the gaps between the chandelier, He Luo was still using tentacle language, saying that he wanted a ring.
"Buy, buy, buy," Wei Wei pressed it back into his pipe, "Let me be quiet for a while."
According to others, His Majesty always made a grand show, collected precious stones and jade, lived a life of luxury, and his arrogance and power were so great that they were awe-inspiring.
How is he similar to him?
Wei Wei was not happy at all when he learned about his "glory" in 10 years. He couldn't help but think that this copy was a deduction of the future. Or was it a predetermined future?

In the distance. On the rooftop.
The clairvoyant's eyeball protrudes from the eye socket, connected only by a few clusters of ocular nerves.
With a popping sound, the eyeball nerve pulled the eyeball back into the eye socket. Clairvoyant rubbed his brows and said, "The people from the court are gone."
"The Black Prince is really well-connected. How did you know that people from the Court of Justice would come?" Crazy Old Sheep exclaimed in admiration.
Because I was the one who leaked the news. Gao Mengtang thought silently. He clapped his hands: "The parade will start at 7 o'clock. We will move our position immediately. Join the second group."
"good!!"
"Crazy Old Sheep, go back," Gao Mengtang said, "Your identity is sensitive, it's easy to intensify conflicts, and you're also likely to get into danger."
"The old sheep won't leave!"
Gao Mengtang: "Be obedient. The overall situation is important."
After some persuasion, half talking and half forcibility, the crazy old sheep was sent back.
Seven o'clock in the morning.
Half of the people were still asleep when they were awakened by a roar that shook the roof tiles.
“All men are created equal!”
"Abolish the sixth class of citizens and defeat the long live slaves!"
"Your Majesty, step down!"
Those who woke up looked out the window and saw the crowd gathered into a swimming dragon, slowly moving forward in the narrow and dirty streets. Each person was a scale - the reverse scale of the dragon. The anger in the roar was on the verge of breaking out.
In the streets and alleys, people kept running out, joining the crowd and shouting along.
The main purpose of this march was to ask the Court to remove the identity restrictions for entering the Sakurajuku area and break the rule that "fifth and sixth class citizens and dogs are not allowed to enter".
Second, they need to have a dialogue with the court to discuss fifth and sixth class citizen rights issues.
The procession slowly approached the Sakurajuku Bridge.
The leader was Gao Mengtang, who was wearing a black mask. Behind him were the group of combat-type sixth-class citizens who had just escaped from the Court of Justice.
Crazy Old Sheep hid in a residential building, peeking out through the gap in the curtains, stamping his feet anxiously: "So what if Old Sheep escaped from prison? I will appear in front of the courtroom openly and those people will not dare to catch me!"
"Black Prince is right. The overall situation is more important." Grandma Hua came over with a cane. "We are almost at the Sakurajuku area. Grandma will go down first."
The white-haired old lady, with a hunched body and a faded floral shirt, but when Grandma Hua appeared, the protesting crowd suddenly became quiet for a moment.
"Axe Chopping Leader!"
"Slit-mouthed man!"
"She's coming, she's coming!"
Grandma Hua trembled as she walked to the front, stood beside Gao Mengtang, and tapped the ground with her cane.
The entire head split in two, and the skinny body became a resonance box. A thunderous roar erupted from the split head: "Abolish the six-class citizen system! All men are created equal!"
"An Ning aided the tyrant in his evil deeds, and the Court of Inquiry has brought eternal harm!"
The gust of wind shattered the glass on both sides of the street. The sound seemed to rush up to the sky and penetrate the land. Echoes came from all directions and blended together, as if the entire universe was roaring towards the small area of District 13.
The shouts of tens of thousands of people became weak, but they shouted more excitedly, and the suppressed anger turned into wild howls. They rushed all the way to the cross-river bridge and confronted the security department of the court opposite.
"Let the people from the courtroom come and talk to us." Grandma Hua said to the security guard.
The security guard responded by putting up his shield.
*
The courtroom was bombed three days ago, Li Ren was found to be in collusion with the Axe Man three hours ago, and now, the parade is approaching the Sakurazhu District.
The staff of the courtroom wished they could split each person into two. Wei Wei had only slept for an hour when he was woken up by the parade. Then, he was picked up by a helicopter and taken to the interrogation room.
"Mr. Meng, tell Li Ren that the news that the Axe Choppers gathered in Hui'an Community was at 6:20 this morning. Yes or no."
Wei Wei: “Yes. The surveillance can prove it.”
"How did Li Ren react?"
Wei Wei: “He’s a little impatient.”
"Have you seen Li Ren before 6:20 this morning?"
"I was working overtime until four in the morning when I saw Li Ren leaving in a hurry," said Wei Wei.
It was actually He Luo disguised as Li Ren, who stole the ring and walked out.
Zheng Yan raised his hand: "I, I can testify. At that time, I was talking to Li Ren, and he ignored me."
"Impossible! Impossible!" Li Ren was locked in the chair and struggled hard, "I was sleeping at four o'clock!"
The interrogator took notes: "Who can prove it?"
Li Ren: "My wife, my son."
"Oh, your family." Wei Wei repeated in a rather sarcastic tone.
The family members have close interests with Li Ren, so how can their testimonies be taken seriously?
"But, but four o'clock is bedtime!" Li Ren's neck turned red with anger, "If I don't sleep at home, am I going to sleep on the street?"
Interrogator: "Were the surveillance cameras on when you were sleeping?"
"Who the hell installed surveillance cameras in the bedroom!" Li Ren cursed angrily.
The interrogator knocked on the table and said, "Put your words in a civilized way. So, you have no way to prove that you were sleeping at four in the morning. Yes or no."
"There's surveillance in my living room!" Li Ren grabbed at straws, "I didn't leave the bedroom between four and six o'clock. The surveillance can prove it."
Wei Wei chuckled softly: "Surveillance can only prove that you are not in the living room, but it cannot prove that you are not in the old mansion, right? You should know how to use the surveillance blind spots in your home."
Li Ren was stunned for a few seconds, then he jumped up. His wrists were handcuffed to the handrails. He struggled, leaving two bloody marks on the iron sheet: "Meng Fei, I'm going to fuck your sister!"
A cold gaze swept over, and Wei Wei half lowered his head, staring at Li Ren from bottom to top.
Instantly, Li Ren felt cold all over. His chin trembled uncontrollably, and after a while, he found his voice again: "Don't believe Meng Fei, my skill is Murphy's Law, I can see that he is a disaster..."
"Director Li, I'm sorry," the interrogator held up the documents and tapped them on the table, "You will be detained for a while."
"There's a parade going on outside and the security team is under my charge. Why are you locking me up at this critical moment?" Li Ren's face turned pale. He couldn't believe this was true.
"After all, you are suspected of collaborating with the enemy."
The iron door was locked, the lights dimmed, and Li Ren sat alone in the empty interrogation room, staring with two red eyes.
Leaving the interrogation room, Wei Wei thought: Today wasn't so bad. Li Ren was detained, and the position of Chief of Epidemic Prevention was vacant. Perhaps, he could take advantage of the opportunity.
Suddenly, a powerful impact knocked Wei Wei down, and his head hit the wall with a thud, causing him to feel dizzy for a while.
One hand grabbed his collar, lifted him up, and raised his fist to hit him.
Wei Wei reflexively wanted to break the man's arm, but when he was about to do so, he held himself back.
He is not [101 Body Cleansing Master] now, but just a small employee with no real ability. If he shows too much, it will easily attract unnecessary attention.
A punch hit the part of his face where his ear met, tearing his earlobe and causing blood to flow down his chin. Wei Wei turned his head and stared at the man who hit him.
He was in his early 20s, full of vigor and vitality, and was wearing the uniform of the court.
"How dare you, a rootless person, frame my boss." The young man pointed at his badge, which read [Xu Tianhe, Deputy Director of the Epidemic Prevention and Control Department]
Xu Tianhe said word by word: "Remember my name, I will definitely make you die a miserable death."
There was another thud, and Wei Wei's head hit the wall. He tightly grasped Xu Tianhe's hand: "Li Ren is going to jail, and you are almost getting a full-time job. Why did you hit me instead of thanking me?"
The second punch came down, and this time Wei Wei dodged it. He pressed Xu Tianhe's face, and a small pill fell between his fingers.
During the fierce confrontation and the rage, Xu Tianhe didn't notice it. He swallowed a pill, punched Wei Wei twice, and walked away.
Wei Wei hid in an empty room, the He Luo tentacles in his sleeves were already restless. He pressed his arm hard.
"Don't worry, he is still useful." Wei Wei said softly, and suddenly smiled, "These people are really stupid, one after another they come to me."
*
9:40 am.
Half of the bridge across the river was occupied by the protesters, and the other half was occupied by the security team. The two groups of people stood in silence. Grandma Hua issued an ultimatum: at 10 o'clock, their representatives would talk to the representatives of the court.
Otherwise, they would just barge in.
Two meetings were held in the courtroom: a high-level decision-making meeting and a general mobilization meeting.
"I'm so tired. Meng Fei, you've suffered so much. You've just started working and you've encountered so many things. Those barbarians, do they have the qualifications to talk to us?" Zheng Yan walked out of the meeting room with a tired face. "Who in the courtroom is willing to lower their status and sit down to talk with sixth-class citizens? That would be a lifelong stain."
Moreover, after the Black Tower game was launched, the word "conversation" specifically refers to one-on-one private conversations in the [chess room].
Each Black Tower game area has a chess room, which is opened by the chief judge of the area. Only two people can enter at a time, one holding the king chess and the other holding the queen chess.
If a consensus is reached, both parties place their chess pieces on the board and a new [Law] is enacted for that area.
The most common situation is that two people will end up fighting each other to the death while talking.
During the conversation, the presiding judge could open the chess room at any time to terminate the negotiation. However, such a conversation was still life-threatening because the sound in the chess room could not be heard, and An Ning did not know whether the two had fought or not.
An Ning was followed by a group of people, and came over like a gust of wind: "Xiao Zheng, come with me."
Zheng Yan: “Ah…ah?”
It might not be a good idea to look for him at this time.
"Can you tell me what it is?" Zheng Yan asked cautiously.
The voices shouting "All men are created equal" came from outside the window again. An Ning pointed outside and said, "What else could this be?"
"This matter should be handled by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs..." Zheng Yan said pleadingly.
An Ning: "The Court of Justice needs to be rebuilt, which requires a lot of money. People from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have gone to Central Continent and Northern Continent to raise funds."
The words "nothing to live for" were written on Zheng Yan's face. He had always been law-abiding and honest, and he never thought that fate would humiliate him like this.
"Your Honor, are you really going to talk to them? You...you..." Doesn't she feel ashamed? How can she bow to the enemy? Zheng Yan was angry but dared not speak.
Wei Wei's eyes turned: "Can I accompany you?"
An Ning's gaze fell on Wei Wei.
She didn't like the six-class citizen system, nor did she want to go to war. But she knew that most people in this world looked down on low-class citizens from the bottom of their hearts.
Sitting down and talking with them, in their minds, was like people and animals sitting at the same table to negotiate. The prominent people in the courtroom could not accept such humiliation.
Other members of the management had complaints about An Ning's decision, but since An Ning was the presiding judge, her words carried the most weight.
If conversation is unavoidable, try to avoid being the conversation representative.
Meng Fei is different. He is a young man with no experience.
It is a traditional virtue of any unit to throw the blame and dirty water on newcomers and actively give them the opportunity to "gain experience".
Soon, the senior managers gathered around An Ning came to their senses and said, "Don't ask Zheng Yan to go. Let Xiao Meng go. He has the advantage. For people like us, the six-class citizen system has already taken root in our hearts, so the conversation will not be effective."
"Give the newcomers a chance to exercise."
Someone even belittled Wei Wei: "Those beasts outside are nothing. Are they worthy of asking first- and second-class citizens like us to sit down and talk with them? Just send third-class citizens instead."
Some even said sarcastically: "Judge An thinks so highly of Meng Fei that he made an exception and admitted him to the position on the same day. He must have some outstanding qualities. Let him give it a try."
At this point, I had to agree. An Ning hesitated for a moment and said, "Go and try as the acting chief of epidemic prevention. I will grant you the position badge temporarily."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone else looked at An Ning.
"He has only been in office for one day, and he is already the acting director?!" Xu Tianhe was the first to jump up, "Judge, are you confused?"
An Ning glanced at him coldly, and Xu Tianhe shuddered.
Others had no objection. The sixth-class citizens were not fools. If a young chicken was sent to talk to them, they would definitely not buy it. Giving Wei Wei the title of "chief" would make him look very high-ranking, and the situation would be different.
In addition, the appointment and dismissal of positions in the Court of Justice are all at the discretion of the Chief Judge. She can grant position badges to anyone and revoke them at any time.
Meng Fei is a new employee who has no power and can be dismissed at any time. It's just a one-day trial card for the general manager.
"We have to delay time and wait for the Iron Lady to come. If we don't find someone to talk to, and that group of people rush in, will you be responsible?" An Ning said.
She patted Wei Wei on the shoulder and said, "Delay the time and don't agree to any of their requests. The Iron Lady will be here in two hours."
Iron Lady? What is that? Wei Wei thought to himself.
At this moment, the voice of "Monster Book" rang in his mind.
[All fears stem from insufficient firepower. After the Black Tower game is officially launched, [Law] becomes the new 'system'.]
[It’s a pity that tyranny is as fierce as a tiger. Under the harsh oppression of the [Law], it is inevitable that some people will feel dissatisfied.]
[So, His Majesty and the [Master Brain] jointly created the mechanical torture device [Iron Lady]]
[She is the coldest, toughest, and most sacred executioner in the world. It is almost impossible to defeat her...]
System: "You triggered the keyword and obtained important information: The butcher [Iron Lady] from the copy [Chaos Block No. 13] is about to appear."
"Hint: There is more than one Iron Lady. Their leader is the Bloody Lady."
Note: The Bloody Lady can be liberated.

9:55
"Where are the rats in the courtroom? Come out!"
"Don't you dare to see us? Hahaha, you coward!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill! Attack the Courtroom!"
The shouts shook the whole area, and the marching crowd became restless. Some people wanted to rush forward, but were stopped by Grandma Hua.
"No hurry, there are still five minutes," Grandma Hua said, "At 10 o'clock, if we don't see the representatives of the courtroom, we will break in."
The security team remained silent.
At this time, An Ning's voice came from the radio: "All security teams, retreat. Withdraw from the cross-river bridge and guard the entrance to the Sakura District."
"Representative of the Court of Justice, the Director General of the Epidemic Prevention Bureau is willing to talk. Please send a representative."
The General Administration of Epidemic Prevention and Control is an armed department. Epidemic prevention refers to clearing infectious monsters, such as Tongxin Teng. Control refers to preventing low-level citizens from rebellion. They have always been the strong enemy of the sixth-class citizens.
Sending the Chief of Epidemic Prevention and Control to have a talk shows great sincerity.
Grandma Hua asked with a smile: "Who wants to be the representative for the conversation?"
Gao Mengtang was educated on the meaning of "conversation". He silently said in his heart: Don't choose me, don't choose me, don't choose me...
Who knows who the chief of epidemic prevention is and whether he is strong in combat. If he goes in, he must not be unable to come out.
"Is that the Chief of Epidemic Prevention?" the chess boy shouted, "Someone is coming out! I saw the position badge on his ID card!"
Gao Mengtang looked up and saw a large group of people in black rushing over. They couldn't recognize their faces. They didn't have the ID cards from 10 years later, nor could they see the new version of the player's panel.
"Who is the chief?" Gao Mengtang asked.
Corrosive Jelly: "The one in the middle, see it?"
His arm stretched out two meters long and pointed from afar at the man in a windbreaker who was surrounded by men in black.
Gao Mengtang secretly ate a blueberry to protect his eyes, and then he saw clearly: Isn’t that Wei Wei!
It's only been a few hours? Wei Wei has become the chief?!
"Grandma Hua, I'm going to talk." Gao Mengtang's attitude changed 180 degrees.
Grandma Hua's yellow eyes showed relief: "Really? You want to go?"
Gao Mengtang: “Yeah.”
"Okay, grandma didn't misjudge you." Grandma Hua adjusted her black mask and said, "Go ahead, but don't reveal your identity."
Broadcast: "Please send representatives as soon as possible."
Gao Mengtang pushed aside the people in front of him and walked forward resolutely. Many people were reluctant to let him go and escorted him all the way.
"As expected of the Black Prince, he remained calm even in the face of great danger." The chess boy held his face with his hands, eyes full of envy.
Heartbroken: "Humph. This kid has some courage."
The two sides approached and shook hands politely. Gao Mengtang was wearing a full-face mask, so he didn't need to control his expression. He was smiling happily under the mask.
However, his smile suddenly stopped.
Wei Wei stuffed something into his hand.
Within the few seconds of the handshake, Gao Mengtang responded quickly. He clenched his fist, turned around, and seeing the chess boy closest to him, he picked him up and patted the back of his neck.
"Don't be afraid, wait for your brother to come back."
The ball of paper in his hand slid along the collar and into the boy's shirt.
*
The center of Sakura-hoku area. Chess room.
The chess room looks like a black cuboid, but it is different from ordinary black, in that it absorbs all light.
It looks like a piece of empty space.
"The chess room has been opened by the presiding judge. Please move forward," said the guard.
Wei Wei nodded and went in first, followed by Gao Mengtang.
The door of the chess room is like a mosaic in the real world, a void of black. When it closes, the interior space suddenly lights up.
A comfortable classical Western-style room with two soft chairs facing each other in the middle and a chess table with an empty chessboard on it.
Next to the soft chair are two altar tables with two black chess pieces on the cushions: a king chess piece and a queen chess piece.
"God of Wealth, I can finally take a break." Wei Wei fell on a soft chair, "Mr. Blind, how are you?"
"I'm fine." Gao Mengtang took off his mask and smiled.
System: “The highlights have been edited and uploaded to the platform.”
