Boss's Death Guide

Chapter 76 - Yu Xuguang

“Of course my son isn’t the mastermind, he must’ve been deceived!” When General Sun heard Qi Jingchen’s words, he immediately responded.

“Deceived? It was he himself who admitted it!” Han Qishang sneered. Right now, not only was he filled with resentment towards Sun Huan, he even hated General Sun.

J City secure base had been personally established by General Sun. Many people here were very grateful to General Sun, but he wasn’t the same. Back when he brought his team and fled to this secure base, he had to contribute a lot of supplies to the base after arriving before he could settle down.

He didn’t owe this secure base, and now it was this secure base that owed him instead! His younger cousin had always provided water for the secure base, and now he had actually died dubiously.

“General Sun, you were so astonished and angry just now because the situation here probably wasn’t as you imagined, right?” Qi Jingchen said, “If I were you, I would have the people here destroy the corpses, but wouldn’t leave so much incriminating evidence behind. Perhaps the matters here had already been out of your control, as even your loyal subordinates were killed. Let me think, the one that ran off was probably the main researcher here?”

He had already assigned people to watch this place, but never thought that there were people here that escaped. However, the people here could even pit themselves against General Sun and kill off Lu Junpeng, so it was quite normal that he couldn’t stop them.

“What nonsense are you saying?!” General Sun glared at Qi Jingchen angrily. “Everything here has nothing to do with me nor my son!”

“This matter truly has nothing to do with your son, but it must have something to do with you.” Qi Jingchen was very certain. “At first, I had also suspected Sun Huan. After all, your character didn’t seem like someone would do this. However, Sun Huan’s constitution is so poor; where would he have the energy to control a group of researchers and create such a large research facility? Even if he did... Since he cherished life this much, wanted to survive this much, and even go so far as to kill this many people unhesitantly, how could he plead guilty like this now?”

Actually, Qi Jingchen previously hadn’t suspected that General Sun would be the mastermind behind-the-scenes either. After all, General Sun had always portrayed a blunt appearance. But just now, the happenings outside the hospital, as well as Sun Huan’s display, made him certain that General Sun was the mastermind.

Sun Huan taking the initiative to admit that he was the mastermind was most likely to take the blame for someone else. Moreover, the one who could induce him to take the blame should only be his close relatives. Sun Chengzhi was very simple and was hot-bloodedly hoping to transform the world into a better place, so she definitely wasn’t the mastermind. Then that only left General Sun.

Looking at the General Sun who was nearby, Qi Jingchen retreated behind Nie Yi. At first, when he thought that if Sun Huan was the mastermind, General Sun would probably put righteousness before his family, so they didn’t have to worry about anything. But in the end, the mastermind behind the scenes was General Sun; they should be careful.

“Kid, what nonsense are you saying?” The person beside General Sun reprimanded him. They were all General Sun’s trusted aides, and absolutely refused to believe that General Sun would do something like this.

“Whether I’m talking nonsense is something General Sun is the most clear about. You appear very genuine, but in fact, you’re just heartless. Sun Chengzhi had just been getting close to us a little, and you’re able to say words like ‘you didn’t have a daughter like her’... If you treat your own daughter like this, could you truly care for the lives of other people?” Qi Jingchen looked at General Sun. He did not interact much with General Sun, but General Sun had always given him an uncomfortable feeling. Initially, he had thought that this feeling came about because General Sun looked down on him, but then he heard the words of rebuke General Sun said to Sun Chengzhi.

If he had a daughter, though he would be very strict for her own good, he definitely wouldn’t blurt out such hurtful words.

“Jingchen, my dad was just saying it, he doesn’t have any malice towards me...” Sun Chengzhi felt cold all over. She had already understood that this matter was definitely related to her family. Though she also knew that this matter was extremely wrong, as he was her own family, she still had to speak up for him.

Moreover, she truly didn’t believe that her own father would do something like this. Her father had always been a man of indomitable spirit, and had always educated her since young that she had to learn to protect the country, so how could he commit such deeds?

Her brother also couldn’t possibly... Could he have been deceived?

“This matter really was done by me. My father had been like that before in order to protect me... As for how I could do these, it was because Lu Junpeng helped me.” Sun Huan said, his voice very placid. “After you all discovered the situation here, I asked Lu Junpeng to dispatch people to capture you, and later when it failed, I wanted to destroy this place... I never imagined that those researchers had other intentions, and turned around to oppose us.”

“Sun Huan, what is this person’s name?” Qi Jingchen suddenly pointed at an ability user who was tied up tightly. “This person was dispatched by you, so you can’t possibly fail to recognise him, right?”

“These are all Lu Junpeng’s responsibility,” Sun Huan said.

This Sun Huan was wholeheartedly admitting to being guilty. At first, Nie Yi had watched it as a joke, but his anger grew as time passed, especially when he noticed that Qi Jingchen evidently didn’t like the smell filled with blood here. “Fei Xuelei, destroy his wheelchair for me!”

Without a second thought, Fei Xuelei threw out a stone and directly broke Sun Huan’s wheelchair. Sun Huan’s entire body rolled off the wheelchair and fell to the ground.

“Ge!” Sun Chengzhi cried out, and ran over to Sun Huan.

General Sun’s face also revealed some anxiousness. He gave his son a hateful look, then looked at Nie Yi. “Nie Yi, it’s never your turn to manage our secure base’s matters!” As he spoke, he indicated for someone by his side to take care of Sun Huan.

“Do you think I want to manage it?” Nie Yi was already disinclined to continue staying here, and directly tossed out a fireball at General Sun.

General Sun was also a fire ability user and naturally wasn’t afraid of Nie Yi’s fireball. Extending a hand, he also produced a fireball to meet it. At the same time, the people by his side also used their abilities to attack Nie Yi.

Seeing this, Nie Yi and his men weren’t to be outdone.

Just as the battle was on the verge of erupting, right at this time, Sun Chengzhi suddenly screamed, “Ge!”

After rolling off the wheelchair, Sun Huan who had been sitting alone at the side of the hall, suddenly had various injuries on him and blood was rapidly flowing out of the wounds. The wounds looked as if they had been sliced by sharp blades; it wasn’t deep, but the blood wouldn’t stop flowing. If such a situation occurred to someone who was strong and robust like Nie Yi, it probably wouldn’t do much harm, but when placed on Sun Huan’s body, it could cost his life.

General Sun could no longer care about anything else, and commanded his subordinates, “Quick! Bring Sun Huan over to me! Stop his bleeding!”

General Sun was worried about Sun Huan, but Qi Jingchen was glancing at the group at the side— the one who attacked just now was Mu Yi. Mu Yi had surprisingly secretly followed after them and even attacked Sun Huan.

General Sun anxiously wanted to rescue his son, but had forgotten that Han Qishang was still here. Previously, Han Qishang had, on one hand, wanted to hear Qi Jingchen’s analysis, and on the other hand, was being stared at by General Sun’s men, so he didn’t move. This time, he didn’t care and simply launched an attack, and the target was even Sun Huan.

Qi Jingchen said that the mastermind behind the scenes was General Sun, but didn’t Sun Huan personally admit to it? Anyway, regardless of whether this matter was done by Sun Huan or General Sun, wasn’t the goal just to let Sun Huan recover?

If that’s the case, then he’ll take Sun Huan’s life!

There were many people in the hall, and the situation had turned chaotic. Many people who had originally come to see the fun were hastily fleeing outside... Even Qi Jingchen hadn’t really anticipated such a situation.

“Let’s make a hole above and escape from here.” Qi Jingchen quickly made a decision. “Bring Mu Yi.” General Sun was definitely harder to deal with than when they had assumed it was Sun Huan, so it was best if they were more careful. It was best if they reunite with the rest of the Chenguang Team as soon as possible— They had gotten involved in this matter for Mu Yi, but he couldn’t let the repercussions conversely fall on him... He still hadn’t finished reading his novel ne!

Just as Qi Jingchen’s voice fell, a few earth ability users made the soil at the top fall onto the ground, dug out a hole above, and created a slope that could be climbed up below.

Nie Yi carried Qi Jingchen and was the first to make his way through. However, he had just emerged when he heard the rumbling of helicopters from above him.

A helicopter hovered above their heads and finally stopped at a nearby place. Very soon, there was someone who leapt down from the helicopter; who else could it be but Yu Xuguang?

“Nie Yi!” When Yu Xuguang saw Nie Yi carrying Qi Jingchen, he called out and asked, “What are you guys doing?”

“I discovered that someone at this secure base was doing human experiments and wanted to expose them, so I brought people into the research facility below. In the end, people started fighting; I was worried Qi Jingchen would get injured, so I ran away first,” Nie Yi expressed.

When Yu Xuguang saw Nie Yi say he ‘ran away first’ so righteously, he was a little at a loss for words. However, seeing how Qi Jingchen was cherished by many, it wasn’t that strange for Nie Yi to do this.

Moreover, Nie Yi had actually taken the initiative to uncover this matter after discovering that someone was doing human experiments, which was sufficient to prove that Nie Yi presently was a good person. Yu Xuguang immediately thought that the decision he had made really couldn’t be more correct.

If he were to force Nie Yi, Nie Yi might be led to rebel against B City secure base again. Now, though, Nie Yi was clearly a good person who was happy to help people!

“I came over for this matter. Were you able to capture General Sun?” Yu Xuguang was feeling slightly pleased with himself for a moment, then quickly sobered up.

“I’ll have someone capture him!” Nie Yi knew that Yu Xuguang definitely knew who the main culprit was, and promptly replied.

Yu Xuguang truly did know who the main culprit was... Wasn’t it precisely General Sun?

He was previously too busy, and there were many matters in B City secure base he had to handle. As such, the matters of the other places remained at the back of his mind, until he discovered that a lot of matters had been occurring in advance.

The changes of the entire world were occuring in advance; everyone’s ability advancement speed was also speeding up. If so, then the things that would have occurred half a year later in his last life, would also be set in advance now?

Now, Yu Xuguang already had a high status in B City secure base, so he found a helicopter and came down south, and the first place he came to was W County secure base.

Even though he had asked Nie Yi to find Professor Li, Yu Xuguang still wasn’t reassured, so he personally went to W County secure base to ask around. As a result...

Su Haisheng, this person who had once expanded W County secure base’s development, was surprisingly killed because he wanted to kill Nie Yi? Moreover, before Nie Yi arrived, these people had sent the entire secure base into turmoil and even let the base be surrounded by zombies?

Seeing that the entirety of W County secure base was grateful to Nie Yi, though Yu Xuguang couldn’t understand how everything changed, he couldn’t help but admit that what Nie Yi had done was right.

He no longer cared about Su Haisheng and asked around for Professor Li, but in the end... W County secure base actually hadn’t heard of this person ‘Professor Li’ at all! At this time, the panacea that could have upgraded abilities that should have existed now, had no traces either!

Not only that, but when he mentioned the ability users who were famous and Su Haisheng’s men in his last life, other people told him that these people were trash who only knew how to bully people...

When Yu Xuguang saw this situation, he had assumed that it was because the zombies in this life were evolving quicker and had surrounded W County secure base in advance, to the extent that W County secure base couldn’t find that miraculous mutated plant. So he could only give up on his original intention to obtain the panacea earlier.

Fortunately, now that there was the cultivation method for abilities, ability users wouldn’t have ability riots when they reach level three, and so the panacea wasn’t as useful anymore...

Yu Xuguang stayed in W County secure base for two days, then immediately flew over here.

J City secure base once had a pile of major events occuring in his last life. The chief of J City secure base had surprisingly ordered someone to conduct human experiments in his secure base, and caused the deaths of many people!

When this matter was exposed, it was after Nie Yi betrayed B City secure base. At that time, not many people in B City secure base could care about the matters of other bases, but because he was idle with only the job of providing water, he had heard a lot of gossip.

J City secure base’s chief had a sickly son, and he wanted to turn his son into an ability user to cure his illness, so he created a laboratory and captured both ability users and regular people for research. It could be said to be demented. Fortunately, later, a group of ability users discovered this matter and exposed them, and snatched control over J City secure base from him.

That’s right, in this entire matter, it had even involved a woman who was part of the dark lord’s subordinates, Mu Yi.

Mu Yi’s husband was one of the ability users captured for experimentation. To avenge her husband, she helped those ability users who wanted to overthrow General Sun oppose him. It was said that General Sun had died by her hands.

Mu Yi’s wind ability could simply be said to have reached perfection. However, for some unknown reason, after helping those ability users overthrow General Sun and snatch control of the base, she surprisingly had a major argument with those ability users and killed a few people. Then, she began to be chased and hunted by those ability users, and finally became Nie Yi’s subordinate.

Right when Yu Xuguang was thinking about matters of that year, he saw a few more people crawling out of the hole, and two of them were even helping out a heavily pregnant woman.

This woman was crying dreadfully; she threw up at the side just as she reached the top. When Yu Xuguang saw this, he sighed and really felt rueful, when he suddenly heard Ping Shengchao say, “Mu Yi, can you stop crying?”

Mu Yi?! Yu Xuguang was stupefied. When he looked over, he realised that the heavily pregnant woman... really seemed to be the one he had previously seen in photos and met once, Mu Yi.

Mu Yi... was surprisingly like this...

“Blergh!” Mu Yi threw up again, wiping her tears as she vomited. Sun Huan died, and it had something to do with her... She killed someone!

Mu Yi couldn’t quite accept this, and her tears flowed out nonstop. However, Yu Xuguang felt as if he was being blinded. He then recalled that this situation was quite good, as right now, Mu Yi obviously wasn’t cold-blooded and unfeeling yet. He should properly pacify her, and then she definitely wouldn’t follow that dark ability user like in his last life!

Baobao Notes

Tbh xuguang not knowing all the facts and being biased is... sigh.

Katie: He was all brawn and no brains to begin with. The intelligence in his family was all endowed to his sister, so it’s no wonder the best thing he could come up with was blowing himself up. >.> But it makes for good entertainment.
