Chapter 589 - I Am The Law (1/2)

Chu Yunsheng was woken up by the mobile phone’s ringtone. When he opened his eyes, he noticed that it was already the daytime outside. A ray of sunlight pierced through a gap in the curtains and left a sword-like pattern lightened area on the floor.

The mobile phone was given to him by Yu Jian, and he did not know the number. But at the moment, the only people that were able to contact him, were probably the people that worked for Song Ying’s father.

As soon as he answered the phone, from the other end of the phone immediately came a woman’s urgent voice, “little Chu, I am Su Su, what you said really happened! The Sun had just disappeared for another half hour! Yingying’s father has agreed to most of your conditions, and he wants to see you now…”

Chu Yunsheng’s surprise prevented him from listening to the rest of what Su Su was saying. He bounced out of bed with a snap, leaped to the window, pulled back the curtains in shock, and looked out into the sunlit but chaotic street with a sinking heart.

The second disappearance of the Sun had already happened? And it happened while he was asleep! Moreover, how did he fall asleep again!

He clearly remembered that, in the real world outside the Pseudo-Monolith, he had also fallen asleep and missed the second disappearance of the Sun because of excessive fatigue. And it was only after Yu Xiaohai told him, later on, did he know about it.

The same event happened twice! Something was not right at all. Even if it was a coincidence, with the noises and chaos caused by the second disappearance of the Sun, there was no way that it could not wake him up!

What the h.e.l.l is going on?

“Old Youling, why didn’t you wake me up!?” Coming to himself, Chu Yunsheng found Old Youling, who was scared of sunlight, in the dark corner of the room and reprimanded it. According to the original plan, they should have left the city with Lin Shuiyao before the Sun disappeared again.

Old Youling said with a grievance, “boss, I called you 800 times already, but you ignored me, I, I thought you were too tired…”

It was not likely that Old Youling would lie to him on this matter, Chu Yunsheng thought. At the same time, an inexplicable panic suddenly surged up in his mind. He hadn’t had this kind of feeling for a very long time. The last time he had it was when he was witnessing Shang’s attack at Horlivka.

Why couldn’t Old Youling wake him up!?

The reason was definitely not tiredness. In fact, in the dark age, he could be awakened by any noises.

If the world inside the Pseudo-Monolith was simulated based on his memory, then just the ordinary sleep would not prevent the Pseudo-Monolith from simulating the second disappearance of the Sun. That is to say, he should’ve been able to see the second disappearance of the Sun, if the sleep during the second disappearance of the Sun outside the Pseudo-Monolith was really just a coincidence.

But what if the sleep outside the Pseudo-Monolith was not an ordinary sleep, but a blank memory timeline and he just appeared to be sleeping? It could explain why Old Youling could not wake him up because the Pseudo-Monolith would once again simulate that empty timeline.

Chu Yunsheng believed that his speculation was logical, and he felt like it was very close to the truth. And at the same time, deep inside his mind, a thought that was unwilling to accept this speculation was growing stronger and stronger. Maybe the reason why he entered the Pseudo-Monolith was not just to look for the fifth pendant…

Perhaps, many more things would be discovered in this world. What he needed to do now was to be extra careful and pay attention to everything that was about to happen. Compared to the outside world, maybe he would be able to find something that he was looking for but he still did not know what it was at the moment.

…

From the upper level, coming down through the elevator to the lobby, although the hotel lobby was not as chaotic as the outside, the people in the lobby were also jittery. People gathered into groups talking about what exactly happened and sharing their information. After all, the people who stayed in this five-star luxury hotel were not ordinary people.

But everyone is afraid of death, and it has nothing to do with a person’s wealth or status. No one wants to be unprepared for the end of the world. The rich and powerful people in the hotel had resources and contacts, they definitely would not want to wait for their death. As long as there was the slightest sign, they would use the most efficient means to make the best use of their resources.

Old Youling really didn’t like to move around in the daytime. But it was scared of Chu Yunsheng, so it had no choice but to go to find Lin Shuiyao again. On the way to Lin Shuiyao’s room, it always tried to avoid the sunlight like a rat running on the street in the daytime. However, when it got to Lin Shuiyao’s room, it noticed that she was not in the room. In fact, it discovered that she had left a note saying that she was in the lobby, and it needed to find her immediately.

When they arrived at the lobby, Yu Jian was waiting for him outside with his men.

“Old Youling, you go with them first, and then find a way to slip away later.” Chu Yunsheng frowned and said. If Song Ying’s father had really agreed on his conditions, and if he really wanted to meet him so urgently, he would have been here personally instead of asking his men to take him elsewhere.

Old Youling begged with a pleading face, “boss, you see the Sun is so bright outside, I will die if I go out like this!”

Chu Yunsheng tried to comfort him, “don’t worry. Ask them to drive the car over and pick you up at the door. Later on, you can run away whenever you see dark places. Their cars’ windows are always sealed tightly so that even sunlight can not get in. Trust me. I won’t lie to you.”

Old Youling said suspiciously, “really?”

Chu Yunsheng nodded, “yes, you will be fine!”

Old Youling finally mustered up all the courage to walk two steps forward. At this time, a ray of sunlight was suddenly reflected into the lobby by the pa.s.sing car from outside, scaring it into jumping back instantly and said in fear, “Dark Lord, can we run please, it’s too dangerous here!”

Hearing it call him Dark Lord again, Chu Yunsheng asked in bewilderment, “why?”

Old Youling said with a long face, “I watched the TV for a long time this morning. From the TV, I learned that there are so many bosses here. I know you are powerful, but this is their territory. We shouldn’t mess with them!”

Chu Yunsheng was speechless, “didn’t I already tell you last night that Boss is just a t.i.tle in this world. Anyone can be called Boss! You don’t need to be scared of them!”
