Chapter 68: Support
Editor: TheSloth
At this time, the enterprising boss of ‘Heaven’s Shadow Entertainment Company’ was sitting on a sofa in his office.
He was holding a syringe and several different small bottles were placed on the tea table.
Lin Geng inserted the syringe into these bottles bit by bit, then extracted the liquid in them.
Lin Geng then flicked his finger at the syringe slightly, taking out the yellow rubber hose and binding it on his own arm, before locating the place of his blood vessel and inserted the syringe into it.
“You… you even do…”
Actually, there was another person in the office.
However, she was in a bad situation. Her legs had been restrained to the chair, and white strings surrounded her body.
Heaven’s Shadow Entertainment Company fully occupied two floors of this office building; however, it was past office hours, so nobody else was still staying here.
“It’s a good thing.”
Lin Geng laid on the sofa after the injection, closing his eyes. “It makes me more clear-headed and smarter. And I’m curious that you just said ‘you even do’ …it seems that you understood what I was doing. Did your sister tell you that?”
“None of your business.” Tu Jiaya turned her head aside.
Lin Geng wiped his nose. After twitching heavily twice, he revealed a relaxed expression and laughed craftily, “I regard it as a yes… but it’s OK. Because you’ll be addicted to these items just like your sister very soon. One Tu Jiaya is not enough, I need more chips for Heaven Shadow. And you are a good one because you’re young and beautiful, with considerable talent. So it’ll be easy for you to gain popularity, reaching a certain height, just based on your sister’s reputation.”
Tu Jiaya sneered, “Sounds great but eventually we’re only the tools for you to get more.”
Lin Geng laughed. A kind of happiness that came from the soul enthralled him.“Sounds like your sister has told you a lot… but that’s alright, it saves my time.”
He gazed at this lady, like a predator looking at his prey, and laughed grimly, “I’ve been being in a good fortune ever since I met these things…”
Suddenly, he paused. He skipped some words that almost escaped his lips due to his sheer delight. “Oh… don’t you think so? For instance, you sister is too naughty, she wanted to escape from me. While I was looking for her, unexpectedly, you wandered willingly into me.”
“I won’t let you have your way!” Tu Jiaya’s firm determination showed on her face. “You can control my body, so what? You will never command my heart.”
Lin Geng got up from the sofa, shambling over to her, “It’s weird. Your tone sounds the same as your sister… quite an exquisite piece of art. But are you aware that I love to smash down those flawless items? For instance, throwing it on the floor, have it break… no matter how you put the debris together, some cracks will be left on it.”
He grasped her chin but unexpectedly, Tu Jiaya suddenly revolted, biting Lin Geng on his palm hard.
She used all her full strength, which cut open Lin Geng’s skin and tear his flesh. Yet, it was as if Lin Geng didn’t feel any pain at all. he merely moved his palm to his mouth, licking the blood up. Then he narrowed his eyes, seemingly enjoying all these. “Yeah, just like this… your stubbornness, is so wonderful!”
““Have you gone mad due to the drugs?” Tu Jiaya inconceivably looked at Lin Geng’s appearance, who seemed to be possessed by the devil.
“Gone mad?” Lin Geng chortled, “No, I’m relaxing myself in a better way… In addition, you don’t know, the drug I’ll give you is not the same as what I’m enjoying. Nevertheless, the degree of exhilaration we’ll attain is pretty much the same.”
He approached her, both hands holding the arm of the chair and faced her. “You’ll feel that pretty soon.”
As if he had gone crazy, Lin Geng drew back several steps, walking towards one corner of the office quickly. He turned on some advanced equipment and a piano allegro started playing in a second.
“Der Erkonig”---Schubert.
With the man's deep voice released from the equipment, Lin Geng became even more intoxicated. He walked about in the office with light paces, finally returning to the sofa and picking up another syringe.
Tu Jiaya felt ridiculous… She had just met ghostlike guys before. From the reflection, she saw herself in the mirror along the way and Lin Geng’s behavior, she realized that the two guys didn’t lie to her.
Yet she sensed Lin Geng, who stood in front was more likely to be a demon, an incarnation of evil, compared to the two weird and horrible beings.
The demons would tell you what they wanted clearly, putting their cards on the table… But what about humans?
What about humans…
As Lin Geng walked close to herself step by step, Tu Jiaya felt despairing. Not only would she fall under the control of that drug, a more terrible situation was, this was her sister’s body actually…
‘Who can save me… god… even a monster …will be good as well.’
She looked down. At the very next second, the syringe might be inserted into her own body. Would it be stronger if it was a direct injection rather than taking pills?
“It’s actually ‘Der Erkonig’.”
Among the fast-paced and the melody full of despair, a soft voice spoke out abruptly.
Tu Jiaya raised her head, what she saw… was a black card floating in front of her with 4 golden stamps sparkling on it.
The irony was these cold twinkling lights gave Tu Jiaya a warm feeling.
Ahead of her, Lin Geng was petrified and unable to move. Meanwhile, a weird man wearing a clown mask just stood there.
The clown was looking at her.
“We came here by following your summons, dear customer.”
At the same time, another voice sprang forth, “Sister!!”
…
…
That voice made Tu Jiaya’s tears gushed out of her eyes. Her sister rushed out from the back of the clown, giving her a tight hug.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”
Tu Jiaqing leaned close to Tu Jiaya, apologizing to her without any intention of stopping.
Lots of scenes happened in the same space. Lin Geng’s fearful expression and his still body, the appearance of her sister… a weird clown and the floating black card.
Tu Jiaya looked at the clown ahead in panic. In a trembling voice, she said, “Are you the person that tempted Jiaqing?”
‘It’s obviously No.9… not my fault.’
However, what he did was merely what any loyal worker of the club would do.
Luo Qiu said as if nothing had happened, “Oh yeah, this customer, you made a wish that you wanted me to save you just now. And it seems this deal will be successful… Well, you two can chat, I’m going deal with the other stuff.”
Luo Qiu walked to the front of Lin Geng, stretching out the black cane and pointing it at his chest. The two then disappeared in the next instant.
The twin sisters looked at each other without saying anything. Only after they stabilized their emotions did they start to speak.
After a long long time, the vanished clown showed up in the office.
Tu Jiaya looked at him. She then brought out the 4-stamp black card daringly, ignoring Tu Jiaqing’s opposition, “I, I’d like to make a wish too…”
…
…
Late at night, outside the airport.
Tu Jiaya and Tu Jiaqing supported each other.
Luo Qiu passed some fake identifications and documents which did not have any problems to the two and said calmly, “Follow the address as soon as you reach the destination. You’ll find a new place to live and possess new identities.”
Tu Jiaya took them over carefully.
“Well, two customers, please keep the periods of doing good in mind… If one does something evil directly or indirectly, I’ll go personally come by to seek compensation for the breach of contract.”
Both nodded without a thought. This night was too weird but amazing, like the life after surviving a disaster.
“How did you deal with Lin Geng?” Tu Jiaya couldn’t stop herself from asking.
She couldn’t make sure whether Lin Geng would appear again and how long can their so-called new life be maintained.
“In Miss Tu Jiaqing’s wish, there are some clauses about having Lin Geng pay for his crimes… Therefore, don’t worry about these because we can guarantee it’ll be done thoughtfully and perfectly. Maybe you two will understand that later. Anyway, hopefully, you two can live on happily later on.”
“No need for you to tell us that.” Tu Jiaya was still wary.
Tu Jiaqing also didn’t say a word. The sisters held each other, turning around and walking to the airport.
As they left, clear footstep could be heard behind Luo Qiu. The everlasting beautiful servant girl walked close to him. “Master seems to be hated.”
Luo Qiu took off the mask, shrugging his shoulder, “That’s why I think it’s right to wear a mask.”
He smiled, “But it’s normal to be hated. Tu Jiaqing spent 3 years worth of time in exchange for saving her sister and paid 10 years in exchange that Lin Geng got the punishment he deserved and the rest of her time to return to her original appearance… As for Tu Jiaya, she has to do good works till she dies, in exchange for keeping her sister’s soul and the opportunity to restart her life. As a result, leaving her home and being controlled by morality forever… Don’t you think it’s normal she gets mad?”
“But she doesn’t know, if it wasn’t for the 4 stamps, she won’t get these back.” You Ye softly voiced. “However, if both of them can finish the contract, that’ll be enough to offset their souls.”
Luo Qiu shook his head. He didn’t want to talk about these matters anymore.
You Ye eyed the gradually disappearing shadows of the sisters, before commenting indifferently, “Humans, are really so weak.”
Luo Qiu nodded, agreeing. But then he said softly, “Hence, that is probably the reason, they support each other, walking down the path known as life.”
Chapter 69: The Doughty and Well-Informed Mass of Chaoyun Area
Editor: TheSloth
Black Soul No.18 felt an unprecedented thrill. It also felt strong ill intentions from the club’s head stewardess.
Black Soul No.18 even fell into deep thought, wondering if he had offended Miss You Ye in ways he didn’t realize.
If not… What the hell was this!!
No.18 dared not move. It was the home of the target who needed to be protected.
This was also the new master’s home. However, he had to pretend that he couldn’t see or hear anything.
Just like that, Black Soul No.18 squatted outside the entrance door like a door-god, merely observing the lift going up and down.
“Don’t just stop at the basement floor! Come up quickly!”
…
…
Were there any other black souls nearby?
It did not seem to be so. After a further check, it seemed to have left. As he had just woke up, Luo Qiu gazed at the ceiling in a daze.
Luo Qiu still got up on time despite thinking about this question.
Breakfast had been laid out on the dining table. Ren Ziling had woke up early. At this moment, she was focusing on the morning news while having the bread and milk.
“Early this morning, according to the reports of the Chaoyun masses①, the Chaoyun police have caught a man surnamed Lin on accounts of drug consumption and drug possession in a deluxe apartment at Mashan Road Neighborhoods. The police spokesperson announced that Mr. Lin was the legal representative of some entertainment company and was found with a massive amount of drugs at his home. Mr. Lin has been in a coma due to his drug abuse… This event is under further investigation…”
You Ye said, that it would be unlikely for him to wake up. Even if he woke up, all he could do was move his eyelids and lay in bed…
Tu Jiaqing hoped that Lin Geng would be punished for his crimes.
This was probably the end for him.
…
…
At this time, while Luo Qiu was pouring water, he heard Ren Ziling whisper seriously, “That makes no sense… Why is it again from the Chaoyun Mass? Why do I never get any wind of this? Why is it the Chaoyun Mass that always manages to catch those drug addicts and criminals? And what the hell is with that “man surnamed Lin”? It’s obviously Lin Geng. And it was I who investigate him first!!”
Luo Qiu sat down, showing an innocent expression, “Do you know him?”
Ren Ziling replied absently, “He’s the boss of Heaven’s Shadow, someone that always shows on the headlines.”
She picked up the phone, “Don’t know about Jiaya’s situation… still can’t get through?”
Luo Qiu… changed the subject, “It’s time for work.”
“F*ck! I’ll be late!” Ren Ziling shouted after checking the time, then she hurried to prepare in her disorderly manner just like usual.
“Have you get all you need? I won’t send anything to your office again,” Luo Qiu said unemotionally.
Ren Ziling paused a moment, she walked over to Luo Qiu suddenly before sniffing at his clothes for a second, then put her arm over his shoulder, “Brat, take her back home for dinner when she’s free.”
“…” Luo Qiu showed a blank expression as he didn’t understand her words.
“Yeah, that’s it. Don’t forget it!” Ren Ziling clapped Luo Qiu on his shoulder and pinched his face, “My son is always the most handsome boy!”
“… You are going to be late.”
“!!!”
…
…
Boss Luo skipped classes today. Whether he attended classes or not, as long as he could pass the final exam, then he would get enough credit points.
However, he didn’t head back to the club immediately. Instead, he locked onto You Ye’s location and arrived in a dry room filled with all sorts of instruments and vessels.
It was likely to be a laboratory or a testing site. Several people were dressed in white gowns. They seemed to be fast asleep on the table. Only You Ye was in action.
There was also the slight sound of dripping---from the activated high-pressure liquid chromatograph.
The servant girl wore the same white coat as those guys. Her hair coiled along with a pair of black frame glasses on her face.
When Luo Qiu arrived, You Ye was shaking a test tube in her hand.
“Where is this?”
“I didn’t want to waste a lot of time waiting for the purchased equipment to arrived; therefore, I borrowed this pharmaceutical factory’s laboratory.”
You Ye put the test tube into the holder, standing with putting both hands together.
Though she dressed differed, but still acted as a servant girl.
“What purchase?”
“Well, there is an exclusive laboratory in Russia; nevertheless, it’ll be hard to move it here.” You Ye said.
Luo Qiu was shocked. “What’s this laboratory for?”
You Ye smiled. “An interest of mine. But if Master doesn’t like it, You Ye can seal it.”
Luo Qiu shook his head. “No need.”
It must be for killing time during this long period. Luo Qiu added, “Let me see it later… By the way, is there anything for you to call me here?”
You Ye gestured for Luo Qiu to come to her side. “Master, I did an analysis on the items found in Lin Geng’s home.”
Luo Qiu was astounded. “Those drugs should be heroin or crystal meth, etc.”
You Ye nodded. “Yes, those are what common people can get access to the ‘market’. However, those will leave great damage on people. There is a need to develop some new products that can lower the risk while giving even more pleasant sensations for those few people who can’t resist the euphoria from drugs… Of course, people will have more dependence on new ones.”
Luo Qiu nodded. He felt he had gained more knowledge. He then raised a further question. “You mean, what Lin Geng used is a new drug?”
You Ye said, “I came here to experiment after sending the sisters away last night. Lin Geng has two kinds of drugs. One is for controlling the artists in his company, such as the one Tu Jiaya got addicted to, which is considered a mixed type. It has been synthesized by adding some stimulants and crystal meth through a simple method. A little time is needed before the recipe can be found… But it’s not difficult to achieve it. As to what Lin Geng uses himself, it is probably not an item that can be confected by a common drug dealer.”
“What do you mean?”
“As for the other one, it contains very little methamphetamine, the rest are all unknown substances.” You Ye shook her head, “It’s still in analysis… However, it’s clear that they are not the usual materials for producing drugs. In addition, when it’s injected into the blood vessel, it combines quickly with the blood, and releases a special hormone, which can stimulate the parietal lobe of the brain directly…”
Luo Qiu tried to understand what she was talking about but he failed. Therefore, You Ye stopped talking and gave him a smile. “In general, it’s something that can make people smarter and feel energetic after using it. But seems it’ll erode the mentality of the user as a side effect.”
Was it a drug that made people intelligent?
“What if it is overused?” Luo Qiu asked suddenly.
You Ye pointed at a mouse in a glass box nearby, “I’ve extracted the main part of the drug that was found in Lin Geng’s home and injected it into the mouse several times.”
With this, You Ye took out a tube of blood from a fridge at the side. She opened the box and poured the blood into it.
Nothing happened to the mouse first. However, its eyes soon turned red. Its claws and teeth grew at an alarming rate. Then its whole body instantly pounced on the puddle of blood.

Chaoyun (朝云)Mass---It comes from a word mentioned in mandarin media’s reports---Chaoyang（朝阳） Mass. There’s a district called Chaoyang District in Beijing. Many artists are always found to be taking drugs in that area. They were finally caught due to tips reported by the residents that live in the Chaoyang District. Therefore, this writer made up a similar name to describe these people who have a strong sense of justice and always fought against corrupt powers.
