Chapter 664: Reviving The Expert Stock Trader
Su Yang stood up with a dark expression. After a while, he said, “Have Janet follow him, see what he’s up to.”
Little Deeny quickly replied, “Understood.”
As the two conversed, the waves on the shore of Socot Island twisted strangely before disappearing.
After giving Janet his instructions, Su Yang sat back on the sofa and looked at the television before him gloomily.
He had always been very worried about the Clown Sea Serpents, so after he brought him out, he secretly asked Janet to transform into his water form and stay on standby at the island.
This also meant that Su Yang believed that the Clown Sea Serpents was more dangerous than anything he had ever encountered.
As for Su Yang’s own safety, he had Spirit Building by his side. Although Spirit Building’s concealment ability was not as good as Janet’s, her ability was much higher than Janet’s, which was enough for her to appear and save Su Yang whenever he was in danger.
Now, it has been proven that Su Yang’s arrangement was indeed effective.
Su Yang was not worried about Janet. Hence, he composed himself and went to the circus again, this time to summon Wei Lin.
Wei Lin was a weak-looking man and there was something about him that invited others to bully him. ‘No wonder that the system thought that he isn’t suitable as a manager and could only be an employee at most.
‘However, I’m guessing that it might be due to his experience and the injuries he sustained…’
Because Wei Lin had shown his worth, Su Yang used his [Verbal Cannon] to comfort him and promised to revive him.
On the other hand, Wei Lin did not ask for much. He only hoped that Su Yang could save his mother who had been bedridden for many years.
According to him, his father passed away early and he ended up growing up with his mother.
Ten years ago, his mother suffered from lupus erythematosus, a horrifying type of immune system disease where there was still no cure for it until now.
Hence, anyone who contracted this disease could only rely on medicine to sustain their lives.
Thankfully, this disease was not fatal during its early stages. Therefore, as long as it was treated regularly, the patient would be able to survive with the disease in them for a long time.
Therefore, for the sake of his mother, Wei Lin had dropped out of high school to stay home and work to earn money in order to treat his mother’s illness, all to ensure that her life is sustained.
However, there was no cure for this illness, so it was like a bottomless pit. As her illness worsened, so did her medical fees. It was so bad that even Wei Lin, who worked three jobs, could not take it anymore.
Wei Lin was quite a smart person. When he realized that he would not be able to afford his mother’s medical fees, he took out most of the money he had on him and used his connections to sneak into Hong Kong to work for his mother.
As a result, he had done many jobs and earned quite some money in Hong Kong. The amount of money he had was able to pay off the expenses of his mother’s treatment for some time.
Just as everything was progressing well, he was unfortunately injured during one of the transportation jobs, causing his brain to be damaged and it knocked him all the way down to a bottomless abyss.
Thankfully, his boss was a good person. After learning about his situation, his heart softened and he helped Wei Lin apply for a residential permit in Hong Kong. Apart from that, he also introduced him to a decent job at the stock trading company and gave him 200,000 yuan to recuperate.
After Wei Lin was injured, he went on to recuperate for half a year. After he recovered, he went to work at the stock trading company. Even though his reaction was slower due to his injury, the company did not fire him because he was diligent enough.
After his work went back on track, Wei Lin took the 210,000 yuan that he had saved and went to the bank. He wanted to save the money and see how much interest he would be able to receive so that he was able to find out if he could treat his mother with this interest.
However, after the cashier told him that he would only have about 200 yuan a month. Wei Lin knew that he needed to work harder to survive.
However, God seemed to favor hardworking people and no longer gave Wei Lin any more chances to work hard by taking Wei Lin’s life through the criminal’s hands, ending Wei Lin’s short and tragic life…
After knowing Wei Lin’s story, Su Yang felt a little sad. ‘This new employee of mine has had a life full of troubles and misfortunes. Furthermore, he’s always prioritized filial piety, a decent talented man…’
Therefore, Su Yang agreed to Wei Lin’s request. As long as Wei Lin would work hard for him, Su Yang would pay for his mother’s treatment. In fact, if it was possible, Su Yang would even cure his mother’s illness.
After Su Yang agreed, Wei Lin knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Su Yang. This made Su Yang feel even more touched.
After arranging a suitable “competition” for Wei Lin, Su Yang left the circus.
Su Yang was very confident that Wei Lin would pass this competition. ‘Even though there’s still going to be some brutal people in this competition, kinship is a great thing that can allow one to unleash their strongest power ever.’
Thus, Su Yang finished everything for the day and returned to the castle hall. Then, he picked up the book on the table and continued reading. He was racing against time with his book grinding so that he could have another virtual server.
There were not many pages left in the book, so Su Yang finished reading it in no time.
Following the notification, [Ding! You have seriously finished “How Steel Is Produced”, obtained a virtual special effects server], Su Yang put down the book and looked at the empty room. He then asked, “Has there been any news on the Clown Sea Serpent?”
A moment later, Little Deeny replied, “No, Master. Janet must have been in his water form because he hasn’t sent me any messages yet.”
Su Yang rubbed his temples, feeling a headache.
‘If it isn’t for the fact that I’ve used up all my free uses of [Space Traversing Eyes], I would’ve flown to Socot Island to see what’s going on.
‘In fact, even at this moment, I still have the urge to break a finger and fly to Socot Island.’
Just as Su Yang was feeling worried, a thick stench of blood filled the air near the island. The seawater nearby was dyed red, as if a brutal battle had just taken place there.
In the middle of the stench of blood, seven nautical miles away from Socot, there were several yachts parked silently on the ocean.
However, the originally white yacht was now covered in blood as corpses were strewn all over the yacht.
A man with messy hair and a half clown mask was sitting in the pool of blood, eating the canned meat.
There was a Caucasian man kneeling before him. If Su Yang was here, he would have noticed that this white man looked very similar to the person who had clashed with him on the island.
The Caucasian’s body was soaked in blood as he knelt and his blue eyes stared at the devil before him in fear. His lips were shaking. “Who… Who… Who are you?”
The Clown Sea Serpent licked the can clean with its long tongue, then looked up at him, revealing a harmless smile. “I told you, my name is the Clown Sea Serpent, a monster.”
The Caucasian trembled as he said, “You… You’re the devil.”
the Clown Sea Serpent nodded and smiled. “I suppose you’re right to say that I’m the devil.”
With that, he picked up the empty can and smashed it at the white man’s head. With a “Bam”, the Caucasian man’s head exploded and his blood sprayed like it was a blooming flower. The scene was extremely cruel yet… Beautiful.
The Clown Sea Serpent chuckled before grabbing another can. As he opened the lid, he muttered to himself, “I told you before that I was only here to borrow a can, but you refused. So, you’ve forced me to kill you.
“Well, you’re all dead now, aren’t you? So, hasn’t all these cans come into my possession anyway?
“Plus, you made me leave a bad impression with my master. Sigh… This isn’t a win-win situation at all.
“I better hurry up and eat, I suppose that fake woman’s going to be here soon, isn’t she. It’s going to be too late for me if I don’t eat this now.
“Yeap, I should eat more. This is delicious.”
With that, he started to wolf down his food.
…
Soon, Little Deeny received feedback from Janet, saying that the Clown Sea Serpent had killed the people on three ships and there was blood everywhere. Then, Janet asked how he should proceed.
Su Yang’s face was dark as he ordered Janet to capture the Clown Sea Serpent by the shore and detain it for the time being, forbidding him from acting on his own any further. Su Yang would deal with everything when he went over the next day.
Soon, a day passed. The next day, Su Yang woke up as usual and went to wash up. He even had the time to have breakfast with Tang Jing and Tang Xiaomi.
On Socot Island, Janet had used her hand to press the Clown Sea Serpent, pinning him to the ground to prevent him from escaping or doing anything else. However, the Clown Sea Serpent was still lying on the ground like nothing had happened. His eyes were closed, and there was a relaxed smile on his face like he was not a criminal.
After a while, the sunlight shone on his face and woke him up. He looked up at the sky, then looked at Janet and said, “Fake woman, relax. I’m not running away.”
However, Janet tightened her grip even more.
The Clown Sea Serpent let out an “Ouch” and said, “It hurts, it hurts, be gentle. Could you not use so much strength? My body isn’t as strong as yours.”
Then, Janet relaxed a little.
The Clown Sea Serpent felt a little more comfortable. He then tilted his head and said, “Are you hungry? Would you like to eat something first?”
Janet did not reply.
The Clown Sea Serpent grinned and said, “Stop waiting, our master isn’t going to be here so early.”
Janet finally reacted this time. He looked at the Clown Sea Serpent and asked coldly, “Why?”
The Clown Sea Serpent said, “Our master is still growing up and his mentality to rule over others is still pretty naive, so some of his actions are easy to guess.
“Right now, he wants to test my patience. Plus, he wants to show up with a psychological advantage, so he will probably wake up on time to adjust his mood. Then, he will slowly pack up before coming here to meet us.
Janet exerted strength in his hand and pressed him to the ground again. “I won’t allow you to speak of Master that way.”
The Clown Sea Serpent was pressed to the ground with a “Ouch!”, but he wasn’t angry. Instead, he chuckled and said, “Don’t be angry. Actually, I feel that Master and you guys really don’t need to be so wary of me. Allow me to analyze it for you.”
