Mo Ran clicked his tongue in dismay and said to Chen Hansheng, "How tragic!"

Chen Hansheng asked, puzzled, "Who are you talking about? The one who cut in line, or these shadows?"

Mo Ran clicked his tongue. "They're all pretty tragic. Look at that bald man, he just cut in line and he lost his life. These shadows are even more tragic, they've lost their lives and still have to work for others."

Chen Hansheng looked at him suspiciously. "You're planning to stop Wang Wen?"

"Are you kidding me!" Mo Ran exclaimed in surprise, as if she were meeting Chen Hansheng for the first time. "Why stop such an interesting game? I'm itching to play!"

Chen Hansheng wiped his sweat. "What are you going to do?"

"A chivalrous act!"

The words had barely left his mouth.

An argument could be heard coming from the other side of the street.

Upon closer inspection, it appears to be a young couple.

The boy, carrying bags of groceries, chased after the girl, pleading, "Please don't go! I know I was wrong. I'll buy them as soon as I get my paycheck next month!"

The girl shook off his hand and said coldly, "See, that's the problem! Why do we have to wait until next month's paycheck to buy a bottle of face cream? Why do we have to treat ourselves to a meal of grilled fish? Why is buying a piece of clothing considered indulgent? Why do we agonize over whether to take the bus or a taxi before going out? Why do we handle our phones so carefully, afraid of dropping or breaking them, and then when they actually break, we try every possible way to get them repaired instead of just buying a new one?"

The boy moved his lips but couldn't utter a word for a long time.

The girl turned around, looking at him with a complicated expression. "Do you know? I love you."

"But do you know how unsafe it is to be someone who's always unreliable and never improves?"

"He's not exactly wealthy, but I feel very secure with him. You know what I mean by secure?"

"He knows which path he should take in the future, and he knows how to give me a stable life. Can you do that?"

"Like this face cream we're using today, it's not very expensive, but he can bring me to buy it anytime. Can you?"

The repeated questioning made the boy lose face, and he retorted, "I can! I'll go back and tell my parents to give me the money!"

The girl lowered her eyes, shook her head, and smiled bitterly, "See, in the end, I still have to ask your parents for money."

"Forget it."

Tears streamed down her face. "I just want a stable life, where I don't have to plan ahead for everything I do or buy, wondering if I'll have enough to eat."

"I just want to be free from worries about food and clothing, not be bound by reality, buy the clothes I want, eat the food I want, see the scenery I want, and live the life I want."

"I don't want much, really not much!"

"It's a pity you don't understand."

"Forget it, let's end it here. Don't contact me again, I'm really tired."

The girl turned and left after she finished speaking.

The boy chased after him for half a step but couldn't think of a reason to stop him.

Wang Wen appeared in front of the girl and said politely with a smile, "If you're tired, let me help you get some relief."

Mo Ran rubbed his hands together, eager to try. "I'll do it! I'll do it!"

Chaotic screams erupted from a bus in the distance.

Wang Wen glanced at the progress bar above the girl's head, shrugged, and moved aside.

Mo Ran said to the girl who curiously turned to look at the bus, "Hey, at least show me some respect!"

After saying that, he stepped forward, grabbed the girl's head, and snapped her neck.

After wringing it out, he found his left hand covered in slippery powder, and disgustedly wiped it on the girl's clothes a few times.

The group came and went like the wind, waving their sleeves without taking away a single cloud.

The girl who fell to the ground had her head spinning more than a full circle; she died without ever knowing what had happened.

The boy walked closer, looking dazed.

Upon seeing the girl's twisted neck, he was about to scream in terror when it felt as if an invisible Scalpel was cutting through his mind, and with a "squeak," he collapsed to the ground.

Mo Ran, standing in the distance, looked at Wang Wen with a puzzled expression.

I wonder why they went to all that trouble.

Seeing people gradually gathering around the boy and girl, Wang Wen nodded and said, "Upholding justice shouldn't implicate the innocent. The boy will wake up in a day, and by then everything will have settled down."

Zhu Xingguo ran over excitedly, "Master, Master, I found this level quite interesting, I want to come again next time."

Wang Wen looked at him amusedly. "You're already on the 700th floor, why are you still thinking about these lower floors?"

"This is hilarious!" Zhu Xingguo exclaimed. "The ordinary people here are all very ordinary. They're polite and only curse without actually fighting. They don't dare to say a word when someone cuts in line. I helped them kill the person who cut in line, and instead of thanking me, they turned around and cursed me. It's really interesting!"

"Stop chatting, you two, come over here, there's a good show to watch!" Mo Ran's voice came from the other side.

He looked into the small restaurant through a glass wall.

A child broke free from his parents' control, ran to the next table, pulled the tablecloth, and knocked over someone's wine glass, the wine landing steadily on a mobile phone.

The girl at the next table was quite young.

The accident happened while I was turning around to get a tissue from my bag. I hurriedly grabbed my phone and wiped it dry with the tissue, only to find that the screen was black and I couldn't turn it on.

She seemed to be waiting for someone.

Her cell phone is very important to her.

I was so anxious because I couldn't open it; tears even welled up in my eyes.

The child's parents heard the commotion, looked over, and silently pulled the child back inside after seeing what had happened.

The girl couldn't help but say, "He knocked my cup over."

The child's mother said nonchalantly, "Little boys are always a bit mischievous."

The girl held up her phone and said, "But my phone is also damaged by water. I'm waiting for an important call today, and now I can't answer it."

The child's mother looked up at her, her brows furrowing in displeasure. "What do you mean? My son just bumped into your table, and your phone broke? What a coincidence! Young lady, don't try to pull that scam at someone else's age, understand?"

The girl's voice trembled with tears as she anxiously explained, "I'm not trying to scam you, I really have something very important..."

The child's father slammed down his chopsticks in frustration and yelled at his daughter, "So what do you want? You're going to keep chasing after a naughty child who doesn't know any better? If he wants to answer the phone, your phone might be broken, but the SIM card isn't; just get a new phone, right?"

The loud roar startled the girl, making her tremble.

He huddled in his seat, not daring to say much.

Tears streamed down my face.

Silently, I packed my things, prepared to pay the bill, and left.

Wang Wen and her group strolled leisurely into the restaurant.

We moved between the two tables.

Mo Ran smiled and said to the child's father, "Kids may not know any better, but adults should. If someone's phone is broken, you should just buy them a new one, right?"

The child's mother glared at Mo Ran with a cold look. "What's it to you? You're so bored, why don't you go help the disaster area?"

"Slap"

Seeing that there was still no progress on the other party's head, Mo Ran decided to punish her as a warning, slapping the child's mother and knocking out several of her teeth, causing half of her face to swell up.

The child's father angrily got up, grabbed a knife and fork from the table, and stabbed Mo Ran.

His fluid movements and menacing demeanor suggested he was used to doing this kind of thing.

Unfortunately, ordinary people are simply courting death by trying to outdo Tower Climber in ruthlessness.

Chen Hansheng swung his knife and severed the man's arm at the elbow.

Blood splattered.

A gasp finally erupted from the restaurant.

The little girl, who had originally intended to thank the group, was so frightened that she hid far away.

The waiters and manager finally arrived.

Upon witnessing this, they immediately called the police.
