Returning to the simple and practical office, I saw Li Xueqiao sitting on the sofa, her face as pale as a piece of paper.

The light filtered through the window and shone dappledly on her face, adding a sense of unreality to the scene.

I leaned gently against the door and broke the silence: "Is there anything else you want to know about Moai River Park?"

She seemed to need some time to digest the reality in front of her. After a long time, she slowly raised her head and looked at me with some confusion.

Her voice was trembling: "Is... is this hell?"

Her questions were like a lost soul seeking answers.

I sighed in my heart, but a wry smile appeared on the corner of my mouth: "If you think this is like it, then it is... After all, no one can really determine what hell looks like."

I kept my voice as soft as possible, trying to give her some comfort, even though I knew how feeble such comfort seemed in this place.

There was an expression of disbelief on her face, "Is there no one to take care of those girls who were tortured like this?"

Her voice was filled with pain and confusion.

I got closer, looked at her deeply, and asked calmly: "What do you think?"

My words are like a mirror, reflecting the cold reality of this campus.

Li Xueqiao shook her head, her eyes began to turn red, her voice was weak and desperate: "The world shouldn't be like this, and life shouldn't be like this..."

Every word she spoke seemed to be an accusation, accusing the park of injustice and indifference.

I took a deep breath, tried to calm down my emotions, and then said slowly: "Ms. Li, I will prepare the photos and information you need during this period as soon as possible. However, before that, I I hope you can stay calm and don't act rashly."

There was a trace of worry in my tone. I knew her heart was full of justice, but in this place, impulsiveness would only bring disaster.

She looked up at me, with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes: "Why do you want to help me?"

Her question went straight to the heart, and even I couldn’t give a clear answer.

I just smiled and remained mysterious: "I don't know... maybe, this is fate."

My understatement concealed my inner turmoil.

In silence, I called Agui and asked him to arrange Li Xueqiao into a clean dormitory. At the same time, I ordered Zhou Ying to keep a close eye on her to ensure her safety.

After all this was arranged, I returned to my desk alone and was immersed in deep thinking.

At dusk that day, I called Agui over and asked him to prepare some specific photos.

After carrying out this task for a few days, he finally couldn't restrain his inner doubts and asked me directly: "Brother Lei, what are your plans?"

His eyes were full of confusion, as if he was trying to interpret every move and word I made.

I took out a pack of cigarettes from my pocket, lit one, and took a deep breath. The smoke filled the space between us.

I asked him slowly: "Agui, have you ever really thought about the future?"

My voice was calm, but a little heavy, as if the weight of this question was beyond the usual scope.

He seemed a little confused and answered blankly: "The future? What future?"

His reaction revealed a familiar helplessness, and then he suddenly realized something and asked me nervously: "Brother Lei, are you really planning to expose things in the park through that reporter?"

I couldn't help but smile, with a bit of bitterness in the laughter: "Do you think that reporter alone can bring down the park?"

My words contain both helplessness about reality and uncertainty about the future.

He wanted to continue asking, but I spoke first and slowly exhaled a puff of smoke: "Now the monthly revenue of the park exceeds 100 million... As the leader of the park, including monthly performance bonuses, and year-end bonuses, From the dividends, I only get about 10 million."

I paused, weighing the meaning behind these numbers.

"Occasionally, if the superiors are in a good mood, they may give me more. But what about the people below? Take you for example, how much can you get every year? Is it a few million?" I flicked the ashes of my cigarette. , his eyes revealed his reflection on all this.

I continued: "You and I both know the source of this money... I went through all kinds of hardships to drive away Hu Laosan, and in the end I only got this little. It's not that I feel too little, but I'm thinking, so How long will our life last? How much money do we need to earn to be considered enough?”

A Gui smiled bitterly, as if something was touched by my words: "Brother Lei, to be honest, if I had only 10 to 20 million, I would be satisfied."

I heard him say this and looked at him with complicated eyes: "Ten or twenty million? If you really think so, I can get it done for you this year."

My words shocked him, and his eyes were full of confusion and confusion.

I took a deep drag on the cigarette, slowly blew out the smoke ring, and said in a low and firm voice, "Ghost, I'm really tired. I don't want to stay in this park anymore..."

"Brother Lei, what exactly do you want to do?" Agui asked again.

My eyes slowly moved from his face to his legs: "What happened last time was because I was sorry for you. I made you suffer. I will prepare a sum of money for you at the end of the year, and treat it as it is for you." compensate."

He pursed his lips: "Brother Lei, I..."

"Agui, the only person I can trust right now is you. I won't force you to do anything. Now there are two ways for you to choose..."

I gestured with two fingers: "First, you continue to manage the security department of the park, and you don't have to worry about anything else. Second, give me a try."

"Give it a try?" He frowned.

I nodded: "No matter what you choose, you won't miss a penny of the money I promised you at the end of the year."

"Brother Lei, how do you want to win?"

I exhaled: "I haven't thought about it yet..."

Agui hesitated, thought for a long time, and asked me: "Brother Lei, don't you want to avenge Zhao Yuan? You must not mess around. The Wa State is behind Mr. He, and we can't fight them... …”

I did not answer his question, but continued to ask: "All you need to do now is tell me how you chose. We will talk about other things later."

"I……"

He pondered for about ten seconds, then gritted his teeth: "Brother Lei, to be honest, without you, I, A Gui, would not be where I am today. I am very grateful to you, but I don't want to take any more risks... and I am already a I’m a useless person, I don’t want to risk my life anymore.”

"But... Brother Lei, don't worry, I will never betray you, no matter what you want me to do."

When I heard Agui's words, I wasn't angry or disappointed. After all, everyone has their own choice.

I smiled and stood up, patting Agui on the shoulder: "Your words are enough..."
