Chapter 756: Chapter 756 Perfect Revenge

Many people often choose to avoid facing pain, even those who can confront it won’t repeatedly savor and chew over it, let alone allow this place, where the entire Shang family suffered greatly, to become an amusement venue.

It’s more akin to hatred.

"For revenge," Teacher Pan sighed, "of the principal culprits involved in the incident at that time, only ten were executed by firing squad, while the others were sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve or life imprisonment for kidnapping, abuse, rape, child abuse, and human experimentation. But in the end, only ten were actually put to death."

"The families and relatives of these individuals manipulated their connections, and once the initial furore settled, they kept reducing their prison terms; those with lighter sentences were out in two or three years."

"There was a sensational news story at the time about a criminal sentenced to five years for raping a woman from the Shang family and fathering her child. He was released early for good behavior but, upon release, sought revenge against the victim and her family, only to be pushed off a building in self-defense by the victim, resulting in him being paralyzed for life."

Without him elaborating further, Xu Huo could guess that as the perpetrators were gradually released, they and their relatives would probably continue to endlessly entangle with the descendants of the Shang family. Even though the Shang family members were victims themselves, some descendants still had complex and indistinct blood ties with them.

The number of people involved was too vast; even if Shang family members hid in the corners of society, they would still be remembered by others.

"The Shang family wouldn’t just sit and wait for death," he said.

"So the Shang family rebuilt the Museum City," Teacher Pan continued. "The person who reconstructed Museum City wasn’t a descendant of Doctor Shang but a child born there. He had left Museum City at the age of four, taken abroad by Doctor Shang to study, and successfully became an entrepreneur before returning."

"Nearly twenty years later, those Shang family members who were persecuted went insane or committed suicide. The children who grew up mostly had some psychological and physical issues, but this one turned out relatively well—at least on the surface."

"After the reconstruction of Museum City, it brought considerable economic profit to the area, successfully boosting the tourism industry and turning an entire city into a tourist destination. In such a place, the crowd is diverse, disappearance is all too common, and so, that descendant of the Shang family killed nearly all the main participants’ nephews and nieces from that year."

"Not all of them went missing in Museum City, though. Some vanished in different ways, like those who were deeply in debt from gambling or those who unsuccessfully tried to divorce and eloped instead. The disappearances didn’t seem odd at the time but were only confirmed later."

"Confirmed?" Xu Huo raised an eyebrow, "Did the descendant of the Shang family admit to the killings?"

"With so many disappearances in the Museum City, there were bound to be some familiar families, and knowing the city’s past, it blew up into a big issue."

"However, with no bodies found, these people couldn’t do anything to the descendant of the Shang family, and instead, some were arrested themselves for causing trouble."

"By then, that descendant of the Shang family could have walked away successfully, but he didn’t. Instead, he anonymously sent videos of the victims’ final moments to their families."

"Those people were also tortured before they died, many expired from the strain after being injected with experimental potions. It seems they also knew why they had been abducted, and each one harbored hate for their relatives who had sinned against them before their deaths."

"The victims’ families didn’t dare to publicly denounce the descendant of the Shang family in the videos. Even after the police were alerted, they couldn’t do much to him for lack of evidence, and he even had alibis for many disappearances."

"Before the police could come up with a plan, those videos were released on social media accounts of the descendant of the Shang family."

Teacher Pan paused, "The images of those victims screaming and repenting for their fathers or uncles caused people to revisit the whole Shang family affair. After committing such inhumane acts, those perpetrators were still able to start families and live comfortably, repeatedly harassing the descendants of the Shang family. With the addition of new crimes committed post-release, and their descendants being of no good either, in an era of widespread internet, no bystanders were willing to forgive them, not even the young people who had died so tragically."

"An eye for an eye," she said.

"This Shang family descendant couldn’t really be foolish enough to turn himself in, right?" Xiao Ling joined in from the side.

"Of course not. He was detained for investigation but later it was found that his account was hacked by a hacker from a chaotic small country. Backed by capital, the descendant of the Shang family was released after a few days."

"But he’s the killer, right?" Yu Guangnan said. "Even without evidence, there must be many people who want him dead."

Teacher Pan nodded, "And here is the climax of the story: two months after returning home, that descendant of the Shang family committed suicide."

"Nicely done," Xu Huo commented without any emotion. "He was a criminal by nature but managed to evoke sympathy with his forced death."

"Exactly," Teacher Pan reflected. "After his death, some organizations and individuals he had helped spoke out for him. He suffered from depression, was constantly under treatment, and had a history of suicide attempts... Someone so tormented by childhood experiences had never ceased donating to society, from his part-time earnings as a student, his salary after working, to the substantial fortune he amassed through entrepreneurship. He spent very little on himself, mostly donating to places like orphanages."

"After the incident at Museum City he moved several times but couldn’t escape death threats, especially after the video incident. All his communication channels were exposed; he hardly had any means to remain undisturbed."

"His business partner released a video of him shortly before he committed suicide. He had killed himself after watching a video of Shang family members being abused, sent by the family member of a former perpetrator, now a victim themselves."

"The wave of reactions that followed goes without saying. Those young people who were killed received no attention; the perpetrators, including their relatives, were all exposed, and those still in positions of power certainly couldn’t maintain their status. Going to prison was considered getting off lightly. Others couldn’t continue their businesses, lost their jobs, and after several public conflicts under immense stress, they were completely condemned by all."

"Thanks to technological advancements, wherever they went, they could be identified. Someone even developed a tracking system specifically to follow their current situation, any of their actions would be magnified, even elevated to the extent of criminal genetics."

"Only then was the revenge considered complete." Xu Huo said. What does it matter if those people are still alive? Having evaded the initial wave of fury, countless hardships wait for them. Whenever they carefully strive to make life a little better, someone will dredge up the past, and then they will become like rats in the sewer. When people forget about them, they can survive in the dark. When remembered, they become sinners who can be attacked without any reason.

Until death.
