Chapter 64 King of Hell This is the host’s reputation.
"I heard 'Brother Yong' was arrested last night. Is that true?"
Bian Ling flipped through Zeng Nanjiang's latest physical examination report and said, "Teacher, you're quite well-informed."
"It's just so-so. This is truly heartening." Zeng Nanjiang's face revealed an undisguised delight. "I also heard she called you last night. How could she have your contact information?"
“I haven’t changed my contact information.”
Zeng Nanjiang looked puzzled.
"So, everyone in the Shen family has my contact information." As for why he didn't change it, it was always others who accommodated him, not him who accommodated others. Before this, no one in the Shen family except Shen Yuchuan dared to change their number to harass him.
[Yes, this is the host's reputation.]
Zeng Nanjiang had of course learned about Ah Jun's true background during this time, and he couldn't help but feel furious. "This family has gone too far! They actually dared to leak your information to drug dealers. They should be charged with treason!"
"Teacher, please take it easy. Be careful that your drug addiction will come back."
Although Bian Ling is researching drug addiction treatment, his main research and development direction is "mental addiction". As for the physical withdrawal reaction, he does not intend to intervene too much. He asked Zeng Nanjiang, and the other party said that as long as he can quit the mental addiction, he can bear the physical pain on his own.
If that's the case, then there's no need for him to do this. Only after going through hardships can he understand how difficult it is to be an ordinary person. As a poor pharmacist, there's no need for him to be perfect.
"Besides, except for that old man, every other member of the Shen family is either in the hospital or in jail."
Zeng Nanjiang had another question mark on his head: No, I just slept for one night, how come the world has changed when I woke up?
In fact, the world has not changed, but Rongshan Group... is about to collapse.
After Shen Mingguang recovered from his illness, he still lived in a nursing home, so when he got the news, Rongshan Group's stock had already hit the limit down, and the news that Shen family head Shen Jianghai was stabbed into the hospital by his wife also made headlines.
As for the reason for the attack, it was very simple. Except for the crown prince Shen Yuchuan, the other two children were not born to the chairman's wife Sui Ya.
Who can bear this? It's not unfair at all to be stabbed.
[It's true that wealthy families are always plagued by trouble, especially this year. Serves you right, old man! I support Sui Ya's acquittal!]
[This is truly eye-opening. So, in the end, the Crown Prince defeated the enemy without a fight, directly dethroned Lao Deng, and returned to the throne?]
[Let me be clear: I'm a pure bonkers person. Where are all the Chen Xi'an fans?! Come on out and take a walk! Your brother is a fake young master, and he's the son of a drug dealer! This is incredible! Now we can definitely drag him away. I now suspect his kidney being dug out wasn't just an accident.]
[Is the Rongshan Shen family being set up by drug dealers? I'm starting to sympathize with their family. Of the three children, only one, Shen Yuchuan, is the original. The other two are one illegitimate daughter and one fake. This is amazing!]
[So where did the real daughter and the real master go? Were they killed by drug dealers?]
[What about those who support the princess? This morning, her fiancée directly announced the cancellation of their engagement in the newspaper. It was so quick to end things. Men are truly unreliable!]
[So, can Rongshan Group still survive? My stocks!!!]
…
Rongshan Group was leaderless, and Shen Mingguang had already sat at the board meeting table, but at this moment he had already felt what it meant to be powerless to save the situation. What a sinner, why did he have to get involved with such a woman?
"Mr. Shen, it's not that we don't understand your feelings, but the situation is really dire. Your family's problems have been going on for a long time, from last year to this year. The second wife is using drugs, the first wife is dealing drugs, and the stock price has plummeted! We have a family to support, and we simply can't continue with your family's troubles."
Shen Mingguang tried his best to appease them, but he still couldn't stop the shareholders from selling their shares. After all, he was old and unable to do it. In order to preserve the last bit of his family fortune, he finally handed over the management rights of Rongshan Group.
In other words, it was a disguised acquisition at a low price.
He had always thought that Rongshan Group was a huge company, and even if it declined one day, it would not fall apart overnight.
But the fact is, the group he had run for most of his life changed hands so easily, and even the name of Rongshan was not preserved.
From then on, there was no longer any Rongshan Group.
Shen Mingguang regretted it, but because there were so many things he regretted, he didn't even know where to go to make amends.
He knew that Bian Ling must have been behind this, but he asked himself, even without Bian Ling, could Rongshan Group withstand such a huge wave? It seemed that they couldn't.
When Shen Yuchuan received the news and returned to Beijing, everything was already beyond redemption. Of course, he was not planning to do anything. He just didn't expect... his mother, who always listened to his father the most, would do such a shocking thing.
"Yuchuan, you're back."
Shen Yuchuan looked at his grandfather, who had become much older, and couldn't help but sigh: "Well, Grandpa, are you okay?"
"I'm not good. I'm going to sever my father-son relationship with your father. When I die, I'll have to trouble you to see me off to the end." Shen Mingguang's eyes were cloudy, and he exuded a sense of decadence from the inside out. "Yuchuan, Grandpa is sorry for you."
Shen Yuchuan had no way of telling whether this "I'm sorry" was true or not, but he certainly wouldn't leave his grandfather alone.
"You've probably heard that Shu Jing isn't your biological sister. I'm afraid your biological sister has been murdered by a drug lord..."
Shen Yuchuan had never seen such a grandfather before. Before coming here, he asked Zhu Lan if she wanted to go back to Beijing with him, but she refused him. It was obvious that she, like Bian Ling, had no intention of returning to the Shen family. In this case, there was no need to tell grandpa about Zhu Lan's existence.
"Yuchuan, it was Grandpa's fault before. You can do whatever you want from now on. The group...is gone now."
Shen Yuchuan felt a little reluctant, but things had developed to this point and it was not something he could intervene in.
After visiting his grandfather, Shen Yuchuan rushed to the hospital again. Shen Jianghai's knife wound was not fatal. Sui Ya was a pampered lady after all, and she had a fruit knife. It was just that the position of the knife was very strange. Although there was no danger to life, the bladder and urinary system were damaged. The doctor said that dysuria, hematuria, decreased renal function and other injuries could not be ruled out.
In addition, he is not young anymore, and some functional losses are completely irreversible.
Now, he finally lost the ability to go out and play.
For Shen Jianghai, who had lived a respectable life for half his life, this was even more painful than killing him.
Shen Yuchuan didn't go in to see him. After confirming that he was okay, he went to the special ward where Shen Shujing was.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Shen, you can’t go in and see her.”
"How is she...?"
After all, they grew up together as a family. Even though Shen Yuchuan knew that Shen Shujing might not regard him as an elder brother at all, he still wanted to confirm that she was still alive.
"I'm sorry, but I have no comment for now."
Because the case is still under investigation, although A Ping has been arrested, the secret agents she arranged in Jing City still exist. The Jing City police have set up a special task force and are working hard to advance the arrest.
Shen Yuchuan hit a snag, but for Bian Ling, all sources of information were open to him.
For example, he knew that A Ping was only shot in the leg and was not in any danger of life, but Shen Shujing was not so lucky. The bullet position was not good, and she even hit the back of her head on a rock when she fell, causing a hematoma in her brain. Although she had undergone surgery, she was still very likely to not wake up.
In other words, she is very likely to become a vegetable.
When Aping becomes ruthless, she will leave no room for mercy to her own daughter.
[Host, this feels a bit dramatic. Zhu Lan almost became a vegetable.]
"oh."
【My original work is completely BE. 】
"...Thanks for reminding me of this. You reminded me that there's even such a thing as an original work." Professor Bian pondered for a moment. "This sounds like a product of the last century."
The system fell into a strange silence. After all, the original novel was based on the rise and fall of Rongshan Group. Now... Rongshan Group has simply changed hands and disintegrated, and even its name no longer exists.
In the original novel, Shen Shujing, the winner who laughed last, is suspected to have become a vegetable.
[Host, I think it's safer for you to do scientific research.]
Once the host really wants to deal with someone, no one can withstand it. To a certain extent, the reason why Rongshan Group has survived for so long is entirely because the host has not put in any special effort to deal with it.
Otherwise, the host only needs to make a slight move and the entire Shen family will have to pack up and sleep under the bridge.
Even if we don't have time to deal with the Shen family now, the Shen family has already brought disaster upon themselves. Sui Ya stabbed Shen Jianghai into the hospital, and Sui Ya herself was put in jail. The two are still getting a divorce, and because Rongshan Group was acquired in disguised form, Shen Jianghai's assets were directly wiped out, and the divorce lawsuit between the two parties has come to a standstill.
Although Shen Mingguang survived thanks to the advent of anti-cancer drugs, he watched most of his family fortune go down the drain and even lost his reputation in the end. He didn't know whether it was fortunate or unfortunate.
Needless to say, Shen Shujing was still lying in the intensive care unit of the hospital. Shen Xi'an was already embroiled in lawsuits. Although his sentence was successfully reduced this time, as the son of a drug dealer, he was destined to never enter the entertainment industry again. The movie directed by a famous director that he regarded as a lifeline was also aborted.
Only Shen Yuchuan, who was on the outside, was spared because he had cut ties with Rongshan Group in advance, and he was the one with the best assets.
"You actually think it's safe for me to do scientific research? You little idiot, you trust me too much."
[…Host, don’t scare me, I’m timid! ]
Bian Ling spread his hands, feeling that he wasn't exaggerating. "By developing a drug addiction treatment, I'm directly interfering with the global drug lord's pie. While I can foresee that many people will continue to use drugs, since I've disrupted their foundation, there will definitely be people who will attack me, both openly and covertly."
After all, as Ah Ping said, those in their line of work are desperate criminals who are capable of anything. If Ah Ping were given the chance, she would kill him at all costs.
Fortunately, he planned to return home after finishing this job.
[Then...what should we do?]
"But the good news is that most drug lords use their own products to control their mid- and lower-level bosses. It's the company's way of saying, 'The company makes the money, the company spends the money.'" Bian Ling's tone was a bit gloating. "Once the drug addiction treatment drugs hit the market, some of the restrained rebels will inevitably riot. I guess this industry will be in internal turmoil for a while."
The system was once again thankful that the host only had an infinite love for scientific research.
[Host, how is your research and development progress? ]
Although it felt very sorry for Zeng Nanjiang, it suddenly felt that it was okay to slow down the progress a little.
Bian Ling could definitely guess what the little AI was thinking, but unfortunately, his potion was almost successfully developed, but its durability was still under further improvement.
The human nervous system is very fragile. If the durability of the drug cannot be guaranteed, then once the nerve perception is blocked multiple times, it will only make people fall into a more devastating situation.
If he wants to ensure that the patient can lead a normal life after using the medicine, he also needs to take targeted preventive measures against the possibility of the patient relapsing, otherwise he will be helping drug dealers expand their business.
He won't do things for others.
"Oh, right. So, host, what targeted preventative measures are you planning? Is it that after a relapse, the brain will experience intense pain from drug ingestion? That way, no one should relapse, right?"
"Why, are you planning to compete with the King of Hell for this year's throne of the underworld?"
[No... no, host, is there anything wrong with what I said? ]
"There's nothing wrong with that. If this were the end of the world, I would just increase the dosage and have all the addicts take the 'pain potion'. People in the end of the world have pretty good physiques anyway, so a high dosage wouldn't kill them. But I remember this world is a society ruled by law, right?"
What happened to the rule of law society?
"This means that drugs with intensely painful side effects cannot be produced legally." Although Bian Ling was an outlaw, it was precisely because of this that he was more perceptive. "Although I hate drug addicts, you also said that some addicts are indeed forced to take drugs, or even poisoned, like Zeng Nanjiang."
[…This shouldn’t be enough to qualify for the throne of Hades, right?]
"It's worthy of the name. What you see is just a drug addiction treatment, but in the eyes of someone like me, it's a legally purchasable auxiliary torture device. Don't you think intense pain is the best product for torture?" Bian Ling's voice was cold and inorganic. "It's very likely to become a means for bad people to persecute others~"
"For example, a drug lord originally used drugs to control a group of people to work for him against their will. When a drug addiction treatment drug was released, these people thought they could finally break free from their constraints. Before they could even be happy for two seconds, you added a side effect, allowing the drug lord to use the drug addiction treatment drug to control them again. How thoughtful~"
The system's scalp tingled after hearing this. It really didn't want to compete for the King of Hell system.
[Is it not possible to restrict purchases, or require real-name purchases? ]
"You're so naive. This kind of restriction only applies to ordinary people. Bad people do bad things that are beyond the law. Do you still expect them to follow the rules?"
Professor Bian casually picked up an apple and took a bite. "Also, you have to respect human diversity. Extreme pleasure and extreme pain can damage the human nervous system. Once someone develops a pain allergy or a sensory disorder, what's the difference between this potion and a drug?"

The author has something to say: System: From this perspective, the host is a normal person, and I... am actually an outlaw and a lunatic?! [Scared][Scared]
