(Day 1.3 support requested!)_5 Accountant Jia also laughed, his laughter quite loud.

“Pah!

You people understand nothing, how could I possibly die at your hands!”

His wild defiance enraged Gru, but Gru instead rose to his feet and left.

“Continue, let’s see how tough his bones really are!”

Two subordinates, carrying torture instruments, continued their work around Accountant Jia.

Cheng Daqi frowned, staring unwaveringly at Accountant Jia who preferred death to submission.

For some reason, he felt a sorrowful empathy.

“Chan, why can the bones of a fraudster be so hard?”

Gru, annoyed, rubbed his waist and asked.

Cheng Daqi’s eyes twinkled with thought as he slowly replied.

“He probably never thought of himself as a fraudster, Mr.

Gru.

Ordinary fraudsters don’t earn that much money.”

Accountant Jia’s life was like one with cheats, born in the countryside, got into university, and after graduating, married the daughter of a county mayor.

(Truly a grand path, marrying into a high-status family, but ordinary people don’t have the fate of Accountant Jia.)

Later, ah, he did well in business and entered the circle of a crime lord.

Then, he moved from Shanxi to Beijing; initially, he wanted to do business on his own merits.

But fate was against him, and he had to seek out the people from Luo Daozu again, fully entering that world.

At that time, Daozu hadn’t attained his ‘Dao’ yet, but already had the power to call the wind and summon the rain.

Accountant Jia’s path to takeoff also began from there, he soared for several years, and then LeEco went public.

Building websites, making TVs, phones, cars, every decision he made was right.

Even operating with high debt wasn’t wrong, because Accountant Jia’s company had industries, had assets.

The only mistake was, ‘What makes you flourish will also be your downfall,’ nothing more.

Accountant Jia, who rose with the wind, met a stormy era like the ‘calming the wind and waves’, his background Daozu fell to the mundane world, and he fled abroad alone, claiming to ‘recuperate.’

When he returned, it was to raise funds for car-making, cashing out, and fleeing.

Perhaps he never thought of himself as a fraudster, or rather, he deceived himself.

Therefore, he was unwilling to bow, unwilling to accept his fate.

Bowing could save his life, but after he bowed, the ‘self’ he used to deceive himself would have died.

Now it’s 2018, Faraday Future even managed to secure financing from Tsu’s belt earlier this year, and his first prototype car had also been created.

He had reasons to deceive himself, to make himself believe he wasn’t a fraudster.

Listening to Cheng Daqi’s narration, Gru fell silent for a long time, feeling somewhat in awe of Accountant Jia, no, he respected Accountant Jia a great deal.

“Stop, everyone stop.”

Gru stopped his subordinates from continuing the torture, feeling that such an opponent should not be so humiliated and tormented.

But he couldn’t think of any other way at the moment, so the chamber grew quiet.

“It’s gotten to this point, we can’t stop now.”

At that moment, Cheng Daqi became the terrifying demon, his words like the low whisper of a demon.

“Moreover, if we drag this out too long, his family, his employees will notice he’s missing.

That would be troublesome.”

Gru’s expression was gloomy, so dark as if it could drip water.

Indeed, what Cheng Daqi said was very true.

“But his bones are so tough, we can’t do anything to him.”

“Let me try, let me have a chat with him.”

Gru didn’t believe Cheng Daqi could handle Accountant Jia, but CEO Cheng’s track record spoke for itself.

Track records that could be verified, the kind of surpassing god-level performances.

“It’s been over an hour already, we anticipated at most three hours.”

Gru reminded for the last time, that timeframe was their bottom line.

If they couldn’t handle Accountant Jia within three hours, they would have to clear the scene.

Everyone would have to die!

Cheng Daqi, with an imperceptible nod, walked over to Accountant Jia, taking a seat on the coffee table.

“Elder Jia, let’s have a chat, shall we?”

Accountant Jia didn’t speak, his pain had robbed him of the desire to talk; he just looked at CEO Cheng, his eyes numb, within the numbness was his unyielding persistence.

Who isn’t a crime lord?

He had a persistence, a stubbornness he was unwilling to give up.

When death was far away, he could deceive, perform, could numbly live.

But when death approached, he was reassured to find—turns out I am still myself, I’m just unlucky, but I’m not a pathetic joker, not a pitiful loser.

He wasn’t a loser, so he did not capitulate; he wasn’t a fraudster, so he was tenacious.

Now, after enduring torture, he no longer wished to attempt compromise.

He would go to his death like a hero, as a testament to his own life!

All those who achieve great success share a kind of will, perhaps expressed differently, but it’s always there.

Accountant Jia’s pain ignited his willpower; even in a dark room, his spirit did not fall.

He didn’t care how the world saw him; what he cared about was that he could not just accept his fate!

Go on, curse; go on, torment; I won’t accept it!

After all I’ve been through, how could I possibly compromise at the last moment?

That would be laughable!

I am not a laughable loser!

I simply won’t accept it!

I, Accountant Jia, will not resign myself to fate!

“Elder Jia, both Gru and I respect you, you do indeed have a strong backbone.

But being strong is useless; it doesn’t stop bullets.

It’s been an hour already; if you don’t cooperate with us in the next two hours.

Mr.

Gru and Eris will begin to purge, starting with your bodyguards, your entourage, and then your family, and finally, you.

To kill cleanly, leaving no loose ends.”

Cheng Daqi’s heart was numb as well; as he said these words, he was constantly trying to detach his soul from his body, to lessen the guilt in his heart.
