Chapter 3 The Great Philanthropist System
Chapter 3 The Great Philanthropist System
Don't come any closer!
Don't come any closer!
Like a startled bird, Chen Feng instinctively took two steps back.
The proprietress blinked in confusion. She was extremely confident in her beautiful appearance. Whenever she went out, men would be so captivated by her that they couldn't walk past her.
But this man in front of me is actively avoiding me, which is really abnormal.
The proprietress squinted her beautiful eyes and asked, "Handsome, what are you afraid of?"
"Afraid? Are you?"
Faced with this female demon who killed hundreds of people and turned them into human skin to hang up.
Chen Feng outwardly feigned composure, but inwardly he was screaming: "Big sister, please don't kill me! I don't want to hang myself on a rope!"
The proprietress invited, "Would you like to take shelter from the rain here?"
"don't want!"
Chen Feng resolutely refused. He didn't want to work hard anymore, but he didn't want to die.
"Strange guy."
Seemingly annoyed by Chen Feng's lack of romantic understanding, the proprietress swayed away.
Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief. He touched his pants and found that they seemed a little wet.
Is it sweat?
Chen Feng looked down at his crotch: "Oh, it's pee. I was wondering why this kind of thing would make me sweat."
This place is terrifying; no wonder so many previous transmigrators have perished here.
Oh, right, senior!
Chen Feng suddenly remembered that during his last reincarnation, he seemed to have inherited the systems of his predecessors. Could this system have been reset because of the save file?
"System, start up!"
Chen Feng quickly activated the system, but instead, three numbered boxes appeared before his eyes.
What is this?
Chen Feng reached out his hand, and just as his hand was about to touch a box, he heard a mechanical voice.
The first box is numbered DS-01-DSR, and it says, "At birth, human nature is good."
The second box is numbered DS-01-DER and says: "Human nature is evil; what is good is feigned."
The third box is numbered LS-02-SHSG, and it says, "As the saying goes, the world, after a long period of division, tends to unite; after a long period of unity, tends to divide."
Thinking of the strange number on his own save/load system, Chen Feng instantly understood that each box must represent a system.
Let's open one up and take a look!
Chen Feng grabbed the first box, while the other two boxes gradually faded and disappeared.
It seems we can only choose one.
A system notification sounded in Chen Feng's ear.
[Ding! Congratulations on successfully activating the Great Philanthropist System]
This system will help you earn a large number of system points, level up quickly, and complete the mission to save the world.
System points?
Chen Feng learned upon inquiry that system points are the system's universal currency, which can be used to improve certain functions of the system. For example, in the save and load system, one point can replenish one load attempt, which is equivalent to having an extra life.
The Great Philanthropist System can issue charitable tasks that reward users with system points based on their experience.
"If I combine the two, wouldn't I be immortal?"
Chen Feng looked excitedly at the task bar:
[He Ting, the owner of Happiness Internet Cafe, is actually a female demon who specializes in sucking people's life force. She has been using the guise of recruiting internet cafe managers to lure and kill homeless men, and then turning their bodies into human skin.]
[Mission Objective: Destroy the Happiness Internet Cafe's forces]
[Task Reward: 1-9 system points will be awarded based on the completion status]
Chen Feng took a look.
Investigating and collecting evidence of the harm caused by internet cafes, and reporting and shutting them down, will only earn the lowest level of reward.
By storming into Happiness Internet Cafe and driving away the female demon He Ting, you can obtain a medium-level reward.
As for the highest level of reward...
Looking at the words "eliminate the banshee" in the mission objective, Chen Feng pointed to himself: "I'll fight the banshee, really?"
What's the difference between that and throwing meat buns at a dog?
Just report it as a token gesture.
Just as Chen Feng had this thought, he saw the two policemen, one old and one young, come out of the internet cafe.
"Master."
"I've told you so many times, use your job title when you're at work!"
"Captain, didn't you say you were going to quit smoking?"
"Sigh, this is the last one!"
Just in time.
Chen Feng's eyes lit up. He was worried about having nowhere to go. Finding a place like a bridge hole to take shelter from the rain wasn't out of the question, but he remembered that there was an invisible monster outside that could snap a person's neck with its bare hands.
We need to find a safe place to spend the night.
Chen Feng waved to stop the two men: "Hello, officer."
"Hello, comrade, is there anything I can help you with?"
"My name is Chen Feng, and I come from out of town."
Chen Feng hastily made up a lie, saying he had lost his wallet and phone, had no relatives or friends, and was starving: "Could you give me something to eat?"
"beggar?"
Policewoman Zhang Ruobing glanced at Chen Feng from head to toe and said bluntly, "Isn't there a construction site right next door? You could easily earn a hundred or two hundred a day working there. You're a grown man with arms and legs, how come you're so broke you can't afford to eat?"
So this person is either a vagrant, a lazy bum, or maybe both.
Zhang Ruobing hated people who didn't work for anything more than anything in his life, so he said, "Master, ignore him, let's go."
"No, no, don't go!"
Upon hearing his apprentice's words, Officer Li suddenly had tomorrow's headline flash through his mind: "Cihang City security guards ignore the suffering of the masses and allow citizens to starve to death on the streets."
It's no exaggeration to say that every single stroke in this news headline could bring down a leader.
So Old Li immediately grabbed Chen Feng's hand, as if afraid that the other man would starve to death in front of him: "My surname is Li, just call me Old Li. I know a good beef noodle restaurant. Let's fill our stomachs first, and then I'll take you to the shelter to rest, okay?"
"Okay, okay."
And so, under Zhang Ruobing's disdainful gaze, Chen Feng sat in a police car for the first time in his life.
As soon as Chen Feng got into the car, he felt a wave of heat hit him.
It's so hot outside, it's impossible not to turn on the air conditioning, so this car has been parked here for a while.
Chen Feng looked at the two people in the driver's seat and the passenger seat, wondering: They've been staying at Happiness Internet Cafe for so long, are they investigating the proprietress?
Just as Chen Feng had expected, after fastening her seatbelt, Zhang Ruobing began to complain: "Master, we've been busy for so long, it's all for nothing."
Old Li, gripping the steering wheel, chuckled, "Look at you, always in such a hurry."
Zhang Ruobing retorted, "I'm not in a hurry. The main problem is that we searched all afternoon and didn't find a single clue. In my opinion, this homeless man's disappearance has nothing to do with Happiness Internet Cafe."
"Hard to say."
Old Li told his apprentice not to jump to conclusions so quickly.
Zhang Ruobing retorted, "Hard to say? According to our investigation, that proprietress hardly ever goes out. Even if she really is the murderer, where are the victims?"
Most of them are hanging upstairs.
There's another one in the car.
Chen Feng was both annoyed and puzzled.
Anyone who has committed murder knows that killing is easy but disposing of the body is difficult. The third floor was clearly covered with human skin and corpses. Even if you searched for two pigs all afternoon, you should have found them. How come there wasn't a single clue?
Recalling the strange incident where a group of people went upstairs but he was the only one who reached the third floor, Chen Feng felt that things were not so simple.
Just then, the walkie-talkie in the car suddenly rang.
"This is 823235... Received... Understood."
Old Li put down the walkie-talkie, turned around, and said seriously, "Excuse me, Mr. Chen, are you very hungry right now?"
Chen Feng waved his hand, indicating he was fine: "What's wrong?"
Old Li explained, "Someone called the police saying that someone was attempting suicide again at Cihang Bridge, so we have to go there."
Chen Feng asked疑惑地问道, "Why did you say 'again'? Is that bridge so prone to accidents?"
Old Li nodded: "You're from out of town, so you don't know. Ever since the Cihang Bridge was built, there have been a lot of suicides. Later, in order to change this situation, the government installed some signs on the bridge."
Chen Feng was taken aback: "A sign?"
Old Li explained, "Whenever someone walks across the Life Bridge, the lights on the railings will turn on and a greeting will appear, such as 'Are you tired?', 'How have you been lately?', 'Does the person you like like you back?' and so on."
Chen Feng asked, "Will it work?"
Old Li said, "Yes, a year later, the number of people who committed suicide on the bridge increased sixfold."
Oh, that's quite useful.
Chen Feng asked, "Why are so many people committing suicide? Are the residents of Cihang City under that much pressure?"
Old Li told Chen Feng, "Actually, suicide has nothing to do with slogans or pressure. The reason so many people died on that bridge is because..."
After a pause, Old Li said in a gloomy tone, "Water ghost."
