Chapter 45 He didn't answer Chi Anlan, but instead said…
He didn't answer Chi Anlan, but said, "What you want to do will happen soon, are you happy?"
Chi Anlan inexplicably felt that Gu Sheng was somewhat terrifying at this moment.
He stammered for a long time but couldn't say whether he was happy or not.
After turning a corner, Chi Anlan suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Looking at the blood-red scene before him, he said in a trembling voice, "What is this?"
There was a trail of blood on the ground, and he looked down the trail toward a room in the corridor.
The door to the room was ajar, and faint "thump" sounds could be heard from inside.
Gu Sheng looked at the mess on the ground and sighed, "How did it get so dirty?"
Chi Anlan suddenly turned to look at Gu Sheng. He opened his mouth as if to ask something, but in the end, he didn't ask anything.
However, Gu Sheng seemed to be able to hear his thoughts: "That's the 'kitchen,' but don't worry, these bloodstains aren't 'products,' they're the chefs'."
Kitchen? Merchandise? Chef?
Seemingly realizing something, Chi Anlan's face turned pale, and she felt nauseous.
He dared not think any deeper; he forced himself to focus on the present.
However, the situation at hand was also beyond his control.
Chi Anlan took two steps back cautiously, then asked, "These, are they yours...?"
He didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was clear.
Gu Sheng shook his head: "Of course not, this has nothing to do with me."
As he spoke, Gu Sheng pushed open the door.
Upon seeing the scene in the room, Chi Anlan's face turned even paler.
Only one burly man in a black leather apron remained alive in the room, waving a cleaver with a sinister grin.
Red liquid splattered everywhere.
At this moment, Chi Anlan forgot to breathe. He wished he didn't have eyes so he wouldn't have to see what was happening in front of him.
Gu Sheng pointed at the burly man and said, "He did it all." Then he looked at the surveillance footage, "There's surveillance footage as evidence."
Chi Anlan felt that none of this mattered anymore. If he still hadn't realized by now that these people had been hypnotized by Gu Sheng, he would have to question his own intelligence.
Chi Anlan left the room, swallowed hard, and his brain was working at a rapid pace.
Could it be that the entire house has been hypnotized?
Is this even possible?
This could already be considered a horror story.
At this moment, in Chi Anlan's eyes, the people in this house had become walking corpses. They looked like different individuals, but in fact they shared a single brain, which was Gu Sheng.
Chi Anlan, who had never shown fear even when facing death, was now afraid.
Gu Sheng followed Chi Anlan out of the room. He could tell that Chi Anlan was in a bad mood, so he comforted her, "Don't worry, I've already asked for permission to do all these things."
Chi Anlan asked, puzzled, "Asked for instructions? Who did you ask for instructions from?"
Gu Sheng smiled slightly: "Both the gods and the people have consulted."
Gu Sheng had consulted with the priests of the Divine Cult, the chairman of the Blue Moon Council, and an undercover agent under Li Qingyue.
The result of the consultation was: God had no objection. As for the Blue Moon Council, Gu Sheng was the chairman, and if he said it was okay, then it was okay. As for Li Qingyue, although Gu Sheng spoke very cryptically, Li Qingyue still understood what was happening here. After a brief silence, he issued a judgment against these people.
Those who eat their own kind deserve to die.
Chi Anlan had many questions he wanted to ask, but in the end he didn't ask them.
Gu Sheng led Chi Anlan forward, and soon the two arrived at the basement of the house.
There were already people waiting here.
Although Chi Anlan was somewhat afraid of Gu Sheng now, he dared not act alone. He knew that only Gu Sheng's side was safe now.
Chi Anlan followed Gu Sheng closely, and upon seeing someone he didn't recognize, he asked in a low voice, "Who is that?"
Gu Sheng said, "Song Yu."
Chi Anlan's pupils contracted slightly. This was Song Yu, the one who organized the party? Was it really okay for them to just walk right up to him like this?
Upon seeing Gu Sheng, Song Yu glanced at Chi Anlan, who was following behind Gu Sheng, but said nothing.
Chi Anlan looked at Song Yu nervously.
Song Yu simply said to Gu Sheng, "Why are you taking so long? The banquet is about to begin."
Gu Sheng smiled and said, "Sorry, something came up and I was held up for a bit. Let's go."
Song Yu opened the iron gate behind him and led Gu Sheng and Chi Anlan through the tunnel into the church.
After stepping out of the passage, Song Yu was stunned by the sight before him.
They emerged from a grand hall, which was resplendent in gold, with every detail exuding ultimate luxury.
The walls of the hall are pure white and covered with paintings by famous artists. The ceiling is also covered with paintings related to God, giving the whole room a sacred feeling.
Afterwards, Song Yu led the two through a long corridor to the banquet hall.
This is a separate darkroom, from which you can overlook the entire venue.
In the hall, all the guests had arrived. They were dressed in magnificent gowns and wore exquisite masks, looking very well-dressed.
A host, also dressed in a formal suit and wearing a mask, stepped to the front of the stage: "Welcome everyone. After a short break, let's begin today's auction."
In the darkroom, Song Yu had already left, leaving only Gu Sheng and Chi Anlan.
Looking at the scattered crowd below, Chi Anlan asked, "Aren't we going down?" It seems like there's nothing we can do here.
Gu Sheng took out his phone and handed it to Chi Anlan: "Okay, just keep an eye on it."
Chi Anlan took the phone with some confusion. The phone displayed the world's largest live streaming website.
The live stream pinned at the top is the auction shown below.
Chi Anlan clicked on the live stream with some surprise and saw that the live stream chat was already in an uproar.
"Is this a movie shoot? The quality of the extras they hired is amazing."
"Wow, where is this? It's so beautiful."
"What are they doing? What kind of auction?"
"Is that a cage? What are they auctioning off?"
Inside the venue, the auction had already begun. The host pulled down the velvet cloth covering the cage, revealing the "goods" inside.
"18 years old, an outstanding athlete, with excellent physical health, and also a rare mixed-race individual from eight countries. Starting bid: 10."
On live streaming websites, the number of bullet comments is increasing.
"What? It's a person?"
“This isn’t a movie shoot. Someone has released the list of attendees, along with a confession from the auction organizer.”
"Not filming a movie? Then it's just..."
"Damn, what kind of world is this?"
"Did you guys see the list? What kind of amazing people are these?"
"Is that the guy sitting in the left corner, wearing gloves, the chairman of that tech company?"
"I remember he had a finger cut off by an enemy, and after that he always wore gloves wherever he went,"
"The platform has issued an announcement saying that it will be shutting down."
“My brother’s friend’s brother’s friend’s nephew is an insider. He said the website wanted to shut down the live stream, but no matter what they did, they couldn’t control it and had to shut down the site.”
"No, I just arrived, I haven't seen anything yet."
The phone screen suddenly went black, displaying only the message "Service temporarily unavailable".
Chi Anlan looked at Gu Sheng: "Did you make this?"
Gu Sheng nodded noncommittally.
He looked at the people below: "Haven't they noticed yet?"
Gu Sheng said, "The signal here is blocked. They didn't bring many people with them. Those people have already been taken into custody."
He looked at Chi Anlan: "As you thought, the whole internet knows what they did now."
Chi Anlan hesitated, then swallowed the words that were about to come out.
He had indeed intended to do so, but the current situation was quite different from what he had imagined.
"Now that we've exposed them, shouldn't we go down and rescue those 'goods'?"
Gu Sheng leaned against the railing and said, "Hmm." He picked up the walkie-talkie on the table next to him and said, "Close the gate."
Chi Anlan didn't know what Gu Sheng was going to do. He licked his lips and looked down.
Just then, the entire hall, or rather, the entire church, went dark.
The crowd below noticed a slight disturbance, but no one screamed or complained.
After a brief period of chaos, a calm male voice rang out: "What happened? Where is Song Yu?"
The moment he finished speaking, the emergency lights came on, shining directly onto the stage.
The host had disappeared at some point, leaving only Song Yu standing there with his eyes closed, in the center of the light.
Behind him, also illuminated by lights, is a sculpture representing God.
Unlike the others, Song Yu did not wear a mask.
His actions provoked discontent among others.
Someone said impatiently, "What's going on? Is this Mr. Song's way of treating guests?"
Song Yu slowly opened his eyes, his gaze filled with a hazy, inexplicable fervor.
Someone noticed his unusual behavior: "You..."
However, before he could finish speaking, Song Yu interrupted him: "Thank you all very much for coming to this gathering."
His words silenced the people below.
They simply assumed it was a surprise program prepared by Song Yu.
However, Song Yu's next words plunged them into panic instantly.
“Dear friends, do you know? God has been watching all of this.”
He turned to face the sculpture behind him that symbolized God.
“He said, ‘The time has come.’”
As Song Yu finished speaking, the sound of a gun being cocked came from the surrounding darkness.
The people below finally began to panic:
"Song Yu, what do you mean by this?"
“I’m leaving here, and I will never attend your parties again.”
"Are you crazy? I'm going to withdraw my investment in the company under your name."
.
.
.
Someone went up on stage wanting to confront Song Yu directly.
In the darkroom, a bad feeling welled up in Chi Anlan's heart.
He glanced at Gu Sheng furtively and said, "Shouldn't we go and rescue the victims?"
Gu Sheng said, "Don't worry, they are safe."
Chi Anlan was completely uneasy. He wasn't worried about the victims, but about other things. He had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.
However, since Gu Sheng had said so, he couldn't bring it up again and could only remain quiet, nervously watching what was happening below.
In the stands, Song Yu completely ignored those people.
