“Isn’t Fergus the CEO of the Cass Corporation? He was chosen as the Top Ten men of the year by the fashion magazine and he is the Dixon Family’s direct descendent. Apparently, he is the strong contender for the head of the family.”
“Scumbag! Why are the so-called Dominant CEOs always like this?!”
“Darn it! I feel that all my values are completely shattered today! What’s wrong with this world?!”
“Is this the real world? Lock our windows and doors. I’m a little terrified now.”
The bullet chat was suddenly greatly reduced, but anger was accumulating.
No one thought that those plutocrats high up in the air were so dirty and scary.
Right then, the live-studio was cut off and the live-studio was banned by WeTwit officially.
The hundreds of millions of audience members watching the live-stream now, were instantly lost.
“Are they crazy?!”
Almost at the same time, the sounds of slamming bangles could be heard all over Underground City.
The audience who couldn’t return to the live-studio, flooded into all the trending lists. They began to release their anger on WeTwit crazily.
“Stupid WeTwit. Did you ban the live-studio because your master’s interests were harmed?!”
“A great CEO in front of people, but a murderer behind the scene!”
“I’ll offload WeTwit today!”
***
Mag noticed that the live-studio was banned. He wasn’t surprised. He was even shocked that this live-studio could have existed for so long. After all, Horace’s earlier comments had dragged the Dixon Family into hot waters with him.
The banning of the live-studio didn’t affect his execution’s tempo, but he had changed his mind and decided to keep Horace alive.
Hence, he began to dig out the Dixon Family’s dirt from Horace, including how they laundered their money, the murder case that Fergus was involved in and their other criminal activities.
The live-stream was cut, but the video’s recording continued on.
363 strikes, not one strike more, not one strike less.
However, Mag kept Horace alive. Other than his life, his limbs and the root of his crimes had left him.
The five minutes countdown was up and Mag fed Horace enough healing pills to make sure he would last till the Justice Investigation Bureau arrived. Then, he turned into a shadow and disappeared from the valley.
On the cliff across from them, the three investigators blinked as they watched the man in black disappear from the valley in a daze.
“Why did he suddenly disappear?!” One of the junior investigators jumped out and used the telescope to scan around the valley. The life detector showed that there was only a weak sign of life left in the valley.
“He has left. It was exactly 363 strikes, but that fellow isn’t dead yet. Let’s go over there right now!” Quark leaped up immediately, jumped into the flying car parked at the side and dashed down to the valley.
He didn’t know why the other party suddenly changed his mind and didn’t kill Horace directly, but he was sure that the chief was going to have a headache later. It would be much more troublesome than receiving a dead body.
After entering into the Almost-Extraordinaire state, Mag’s speed had increased greatly. Together with the flying sword technique which he had recently mastered, his instantaneous explosive speed was comparable to Xi’s battleship.
About three minutes later, Mag appeared in a dense forest 500 km away.
Mag put away his sword and was about to take out his flying car for his journey back.
A black battleship suddenly appeared in the sky above the dense forest.
“Mmm?” Mag grasped his sword.
“Hop on.” The door underneath the battleship opened and Xi’s voice rang in his ear.
“What are you doing here?” Mag was slightly taken aback, but he still hopped onto the battleship right away.
The door closed and the battleship started up silently. It turned on the invisible mode and disappeared at the horizon.
Mag entered the control room and smilingly asked Xi, who was sitting in the pilot’s seat, “A new battleship?”
“This mission is highly secretive. It’s not convenient to use my battleship.” Xi activated the auto pilot and got up from her seat as she looked at Mag with a complicated gaze.
Mag removed his mask and smilingly said, “I know I am handsome, but you don’t have to stare at me like that. I have a wife and children after all.”
“The plutocrats aren’t easy to mess with. You can’t fight with them,” Xi said in a low voice.
“I always do as I please. As for how difficult they are to deal with, I don’t have to think about that. I just need to stir up the matter.” Mag clicked on the bangle and asked at the same time, “How do I release the video all over the Internet? WeTwit’s not righteous, but I don’t think all the platforms are going to shut it down, right?”
“Did you kill him?”
“No, I kept him alive, but he’s not going to last for long. However, it will be interesting to see who is going to kill him.” There was a hint of cunningness in Mag’s smile.
Xi was quiet. She soon understood Mag’s meaning as she said, “Regarding this matter, I have to ask my superiors.”
“Then hurry up, otherwise he will be dead.”
Three minutes later, Mag released the entire judging process on the Internet.
As he expected, the original clip was banned on the whole Internet within three minutes.
Xi looked at all the clips that became gray and said to Mag, “You have underestimated the plutocrats’ influence.”
“It’s you who have underestimated the people’s power in spreading the resources.” Mag left the control room with a smile and headed for the lounge.
The shutting down of the live-stream of the judging had triggered the people’s fury.
Meanwhile, 10-odd minutes later, a complete video clip of Horace’s judgment was released all over the Internet and appeared on all the mainstream video-sharing websites.
All the platforms and websites reacted rapidly and removed the clip.
However, the sealing of the public channels could only stop the spreading of this video clip. Online storage, personal links and even individual storing devices… The netizens did whatever they could to spread this clip rapidly like a virus. Even the scalpers were thinking about selling it.
Mag knew very well from the beginning that it would be the video clip that would be able to spread widely. People watching the clip live, would be the minority.
The later half of the clip even made the audience feel a chill up their back and their limbs turn cold.
The plutocrats were lording over the ordinary folks. Their behavior of doing whatever they pleased above the law was dissected for all to see.
And at the end of the clip, “The Adjudicator” didn’t kill Horace. He let him live after cutting away his limbs.
The witness was still alive, then the rest would be the Justice Investigation Bureau’s issue.
Fergus’ rape and murder case, the Dixon Family’s money-laundering case and some dirty matters within the circle were all cases that the bureau should investigate.
***
Mag closed the lounge door and laid on the bed. Looking at the little words “System in the process of learning” drifting across his mind, Mag loudly asked, “System, are you done learning yet?”
The system kept quiet and the little words kept drifting across.
“You’re really useless. I have already linked you up with the Internet and yet you failed to finish learning after so long.” Mag pursed his lips and was about to exit.
To better understand this world, the first thing that Mag did after he entered Underground City was to link the system up with the Underground City’s Internet, so that it could learn the Underground City’s technology by stealing.
The technology level that the system had was lower than Underground City’s, because it was meant for the Norland Continent and it was more than adequate for it.
However, the system itself had limitless potential. After all, it was made by God.
Using the system’s explanation, it was just like an online storage space that had the capacity of 1000T, and only contained 1G of stuff. It could accommodate more things to elevate its power.
The system’s voice suddenly rang out. “This Underground City has so many methods to make films that it’s astonishing.”
