Quick Wear: I, who played the supporting actor, got stuck with the protagonist

Chapter 423: That Morbid and Paranoid Game Development Character (62)

"He is a smart man after all."

Zhao Shi cheered up and told Jin Lan the information his men had gathered and compiled, his surprise evident in his words.

"I heard from the people in the Lower City that before Mo You was eight years old, his father didn't love him and his stepmother didn't care about him. He had a brother brought by his stepmother who always beat and scolded him. His life was miserable. It was a miracle that he survived."

"Then I somehow got in touch with the Money Gang. Oh, the Money Gang is the predecessor of the Guimo Society. At that time, the Money Gang was just one of the four major gangs, and it was far from the power that it has now that controls the entire Lower City."

"But ever since Mo You recognized Wang Lai as his adoptive father, he has been on a meteoric rise. His father's family died in a fire. Whether it was an accident or man-made remains to be verified. What's important is what comes later."

Zhao Shiba had talked too much, so he picked up the cup and poured it into his mouth. Seeing that Jin Lan was unusually interested, he took a breath and continued, adding some tone and actions.

"Before he was eight years old, Mo You had a miserable life, just like a beggar, but after he was eight years old, it was as if his luck had changed."

"Not only did he have a foster father who was the leader of one of the four major gangs, but he also became the young leader very smoothly after destroying the Dragon and Tiger Gang. After a while, he even brought the remaining two gangs to his side."

Zhao Shi touched his chin and exclaimed in amazement, “Since then, the four major gangs have united into one and become the current Guimo Society.

In the eyes of the people in the Lower City, the Guimo Society has almost become their official organization. If there are any disputes, they go to the Guimo Society to resolve them. It doesn't look like a gang at all."

"Especially Vice President Mo You. People have mixed opinions about him. He is resourceful, but also ruthless. But overall, most people still praise him."

Jin Lan was slightly stunned, muttering something.

"transport?"

After receiving the response, Zhao Shi spoke even more excitedly, "That's right. I lived a miserable life before the age of eight, but I became very successful after the age of eight and even became the vice president of the Guimo Society."

"Are there many smart people in the world? Yes, a lot. But why haven't they made a name for themselves? Although personal ability is essential, the right time, right place and right people are also essential. Luck is also a part of success."

In Zhao Shi's opinion, Mo You has very good luck.

He was talking excitedly when he looked up and saw that his team leader seemed to be in deep thought. He knew what to do and shut up silently.

Speaking of which, the team leader’s luck is… not bad, right?

It's just that all the luck seems to be on the young team leader's father. Although it can benefit himself, it is not as good as luck favoring himself.

As a result, Zhao Shi didn't know whether the young team leader's luck was good or bad.

It was agreed that Jin San would provide them with good food and drink, and there would be a special nanny to take care of their meals, drinking water and washing clothes. If anyone made the young team leader unhappy, Jin San would immediately deal with that person with just one word from the young team leader.

Even if he is his confidant, his life or death is just a matter of a word from the team leader.

If the young team leader was interested in something, he would send someone to tell Jin San, and the thing would appear in front of him the next day. There were many similar things, and it would be impossible to list them all in a short time.

In a nutshell, even those who have grudges against the Golden Dragon Group have to admit that Jin San is truly kind to his son with all his heart.

Jin Lan was not interested in knowing what Zhao Shi was thinking. An idea that had been dormant for many years surfaced again in his mind. After a while, he waved his hand.

"You go……"

Hearing the words in his ear, Zhao Shi was surprised and puzzled at first, but then all his emotions disappeared and he nodded seriously, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it, but..."

Jin Lan knew what he wanted to say, "Don't worry about him, just say it was my order."

At least for now, Jin San will not break up with him.

With these words, Zhao Shi felt relieved. Seeing that the time was almost up, in order not to arouse suspicion, he got up and left, but he was stopped unexpectedly.

"Is there anything else you need me to do?"

Zhao Shi couldn't understand the emotions in the eyes of the thin boy sitting on the bed, he only heard a strange word.

"Uncle Zhao, if, I mean if." Jin Lan raised her eyes and said softly, "If one day you knew the time of your own death, what would you do?"

Zhao Shi rubbed his hands together, feeling doubtful, but still told the truth, "People in gangs all live day by day, right? As for me, the day before I die, I will definitely spend all my money, eat the most expensive food, wear the best clothes, and then lie in bed waiting for my time to come."

He chuckled and said, "When the time comes, I'll just kick my legs and not care about who's in front of me or behind me."

This speech is quite consistent with Zhao Shi’s impression.

Zhao Shi didn't take the inexplicable question and the answer he gave casually and in accordance with his heart to heart. He hurriedly began to do what Jin Lan had asked him to do.

The opening and closing of the door cut off the fleeting light, and the room fell into darkness again, leaving Jin Lan alone.

The accustomed loneliness is no longer loneliness. Jin Lan has lived this kind of life for twelve years. Judging from his appearance, no one would know that he is already in his twenties.

He has a frail body, an unhealthy pale complexion, and he would cough from fatigue after speaking a few more words. Those who praised Jin San for his true love for his son would surely remain silent if they saw him.

People who are well-fed and well-served will at least be so fat that they can't walk, but they will never be as fat as Jin Lan. What's more, the food Jin San sent was the best, and it was always eaten up cleanly.

But his body has gradually become what it is today. The instruments show that everything is healthy, but a healthy person would have difficulty walking, and his strength is not even as good as that of a ten-year-old child.

"Cough cough..."

The violent coughing seemed to be about to cough out his lungs. He always thought that he would not live long, but the fact was that he lived in pain year after year.

Jin Lan has a secret, a secret that no one knows.

He had memories when he was born, and that was all he knew at birth. And he began to dream at the age of three, every night.

At the beginning, he would become another person in the dream, man or woman, young or old, from all walks of life, but without exception, these people would suddenly get a chance one day.

Suddenly becoming extremely intelligent, getting countless help from noble people, having good luck to win every bet, being able to understand animals' speech, etc...

Jin Lan possessed these people in the dream, unable to speak or move, like a silent bystander.

Watch them go from being ordinary to being blessed with divine power, watch them lose control of their desires and become self-destructive, watch them die miserably.

And every time the possessed person dies, he will dream about the next person.

At the beginning, Jin Lan was scared and tried hard not to fall asleep, but how could one stay awake all the time?

Every time it was twelve o'clock, he forced himself to sleep as if he had set an alarm clock. Later, seeing that he could not resist anymore, Jin Lan accepted his fate.

Every night his dreams were confusing. He dreamed of a person’s entire life in one night, but remembered nothing after waking up. Later, he simply treated it as a TV drama and found joy in suffering.

The turning point of everything was three years ago.

The dream that night was different from all the previous ones. Jin Lan remembered it very clearly. It was about a woman, a woman who was extremely beautiful and intelligent.

He is also the only one who sees him and talks to him.

Rainy night, black clothes, red lips.

An umbrella and a gun.

Countless guns were pointed at her in the abandoned high-rise building. The man in the lead was shaking with his hands holding the gun. From a distance, it looked like the women surrounded them.

Jin Lan could only occasionally hear their conversation.

"You...are selfish..."

"Hand over... the Upper City... No killing..."

The noise made the woman sigh impatiently and pick her ears.

"A bunch of idiots."

One sentence stung a hornet's nest.

The men were spitting everywhere. Even though Jin Lan couldn't hear clearly, he could tell from their expressions how dirty their curses were. He frowned and heard a sound of contempt in his ears.

"Coward."

"He clearly wanted to kill me, but he didn't dare to shoot in order to get the information from me. He had no choice but to set this trap with the lives of innocent people."

The woman curled her lips and smiled, revealing her sarcasm. "There are a hundred steps, and I've taken ninety-nine. But I'm just one step short."

"As a human being, you have to throw away your conscience to live a better life. You must remember this and don't learn from me."

It was not until he met the woman's eagle-like eyes that Jin Lan realized that her words were directed at him. He couldn't help but ask, "You, you can see me?"

"I'm not blind," the woman rolled her eyes at first, and said in an ambiguous way, "But the fact that you can see me is a kind of talent. Maybe a miracle can happen to you..."

The voice at the end was too low for Jin Lan to hear clearly.

He was confused until he saw the angry people raising their guns and shouting urgently, "Be careful!"

The woman didn't even look at this, and even casually turned the gun in her hand. The rain hit the watch, blurring the time.

"You won't die until the time comes."

Then, Jin Lan saw a miracle.

Amid the hail of bullets, sparks flew everywhere, and the pouring bullets hit the woman's feet. After one round of fire, not a single strand of her hair was messed up.

Instead, those who fired the shots fell to the ground one after another, leaving no one alive.

Blood was splattered and corpses were everywhere. The woman stepped over them with disgust, looking at their ugly dead appearances with disgust. Jin Lan didn't understand why she was relaxed.

"Aren't you leaving?"

"Why are you leaving?" The woman turned her wrist slightly, and the water droplets on the rain curtain formed a graceful arc, accompanied by corpses on the ground.

The woman curled her hair and tilted her head slightly, her inherent arrogance clearly visible, "Time is almost up."

The woman saw that Jin Lan didn't understand the meaningless words, and she didn't need him to understand. She said to herself, "I'm so unwilling. I just missed this step."

"If I choose the wrong node, even if I clear the level, it will be the wrong ending. I can't save the game or start over, haha..."

Jin Lan saw the woman glance at him.

"One after another, when will it end? Hey, you."

"My name is--"

"Stop, I'm not interested in knowing your name. I'm giving you a piece of advice." The woman closed her umbrella and let the cold rain hit her body. The look in her eyes seemed to be mocking and pity.

Jin Lan inexplicably disliked this kind of look.

"If you don't want to die, live on."

"Do whatever it takes to survive and get out of here."

Survive?

Jin Lan always felt that what the woman said was more than just about staying alive. Before he could comprehend the deeper meaning, fog gathered around him and he knew that this dream was about to end.

'boom'

Pupils shrink suddenly.

The woman who was speaking just now remained motionless, sticky blood dripping down her face, and her bright eyes gradually dimmed.

She is dead.

Died by suicide.

Use the only bullet in the gun in your hand.

In an instant, Jin Lan felt the great absurdity.

Even though they had only been together for less than half an hour, how could a person like that, a person so proud, who remained calm in the face of being surrounded, suddenly commit suicide!?

“…You must be kidding.”

The woman was the only one who could see him and talk to him in his dreams. Jin Lan stretched out his hand, and the rain passed through his transparent arms and fell into the ground without any hindrance, diluting the blood on the ground.

When the fog filled up, he woke up from his dream.

Jin Lan was surprised to find that he remembered everything in the dream, including the woman's words, but even though he remembered them, he still didn't understand what she meant.

His intuition told him that what the woman said was very important and related to his future destiny. Unfortunately, Jin Lan couldn't understand it no matter how hard he tried.

But soon, the next dream solved his puzzle.

That was also the first time Jin Lan connected to yesterday’s dream.

It was still the same street, but the woman's body was gone. A group of people came and carried other bodies. At the same time, they were whispering without their faces being clearly seen.

"●● is also a character. He developed ●●● to such a scale by himself, but he offended too many people and his weaknesses are too obvious."

"That's right. Look, those who coveted her position united together. It's a pity that they all died together. ●●This woman is really scary."

"Now that she's dead, what are you afraid of? Be a little more capable."

"I'm just scared! I'm scared. It's not shameful to say it out loud. How many people in the entire Midtown area are not afraid of her?"

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore."

"Speaking of which, after ●●'s death, the Fenglai Group has been torn apart. The huge mountain pressing down on their heads is gone, and things are going to be exciting from now on."

"It doesn't matter to me whether I like the atmosphere or not. I'll just live one day at a time."

"..."

Jin Lan miraculously heard everything they said clearly, and could even guess the occasional vague words. This dream was very short, so short that it seemed unreal.

But what shocked him most was the last overhead scene in the dream, from the vast sea of ​​clouds to the tall buildings, from the tall buildings to the familiar buildings, and finally - he saw himself.

He was awakened with lingering fear and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. He simply called in Zhao Shi, who was guarding the gate, and asked him if he knew about the Fenglai Group.

Zhao Shi was very surprised at that time.

"How did you know about Fenglai Group?"

Fortunately, he did not ask too many questions, but instead explained to Jin Lan, "Speaking of the Fenglai Group, we have to mention Feng Yu, a woman who made everyone at that time bow down to her."

"That was thirty years ago. I was still a lazy kid and hadn't joined any gang, but the name of the Fenglai Group was known to almost everyone in and outside the world."

"The most widely circulated saying is that the Fenglai Group is the Central City District, and all the people in the Central City District are members of the Fenglai Group."

"At that time, all gangs were branches of the Fenglai Group. No one dared to mess with us when we walked outside, and the name of Fengyu made people feel awed."

"pity……"

Zhao Shi sighed, "The good times didn't last long. I don't know when a message came out saying that Feng Yu knew the way to the upper city, but refused to announce it."

“Uptown, that’s everyone’s dream place.”

"So naturally, the subordinates of the Fenglai Group rebelled and threatened Feng Yu with the lives of ordinary people, but for some reason they failed. All the people who besieged Feng Yu died, and Feng Yu's body also disappeared."

"The Fenglai Group was disbanded, and soon after that, gangs of all sizes emerged, all wanting to be the next Fengyu."

"..."

Coming back to his senses from his memories, Jin Lan was speechless for a long time.

The things that he didn't understand at that time finally had a vague answer now, although... this answer overturned his concept.
