Chương 9: Don’t Look Back
Biên tập viên: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fang Zheng frowned as he watched the Hell Car transform back into a Lamborghini.
'So!
'Was this cousin of Nicholas Cage's Ghost Rider a superhuman? Or a ghost?'
He needed answers to this question.
This was about the source of the white smoke…
At the same time, Fang Zheng was dazzled by his newfound powers. 'The Golden Immune Arhat' was truly the upgraded version of 'The True Arhat'.
It was the elder brother of the Golden Gourd—the Big Golden Gourd.
He had destroyed the Lamborghini. It was his first battle and he had used 50 years' worth of power in doing so.
As he had no professional gear on him, Fang Zheng couldn't be sure as to the actual force placed behind his punch.
"At least 1000kg… right?"
Fang Zheng mused over how he had transformed a lamp post into a spear.
The thought excited him, prompting him to pursue his training after this.
A thousand kilograms meant that he would surpass the world's strongest boxer. A normal person wouldn't even dream about such a feat, but Fang Zheng had acquired the taste for it.
He now prioritized the scripture made of human skin more. He will keep this secret to himself, forever. In forever, he will be the only one to know of it.
He also prioritized the human skin-made scripture better. This secret will be kept to himself forever — he'll be the only one who knows it forever.
But the fate of the Ghost Driver served him as a warning.
Abilities should always be conserved for the right time. He should never in his haste use them.
He blew.
The golden flames in his right hand grew weak, tiny sparks that he could immediately extinguish.
"Burn!"
Puff, it went out.
"Burn!"
Puff, puff: out it went.
After a little while of doing that an intense nausea came over him.
It felt like going through a phys ed class without breakfast, and then being made to run three kilometers. He was overcome with soreness.
The weak Aura of Sunfire he had obtained through vigorous training had been extinguished after a mere five seconds; it was supposed to last for 50 years.
If it had been an average person, the flames would not have even lasted a few seconds.
Nearby residents came running toward him. They had heard the commotion.
Fang Zheng immediately left the scene, taking care to avoid any area that had CCTVs.
Three girls, Ding Xinyu, Liu Xiaoxia and Wang Wenwen, rented a place together that was located nearby. They had heard the commotion and ran out; they were all still in their themed pyjamas.
One had pictures of Spongebob, one had Pikachus on it and the other had Kumamon.
They were flabbergasted. They looked like terrified kittens when they saw the area where the incident took place. The lamborghini looked worse than if a train had rammed into it.
The car had been transformed into a ball.
Click! Click! Phones were flashing. The three girls had drawn out their Fruit phones and had instantly begun snapping photos to be uploaded on Weibo.
[It's real! These pictures are proof! This is the scene of a Lamborghini accident! It looks horrible! The driver is most likely dead! It's a pity! :sad: We have called 110, 120 and 119. Please condemn the hit-and-run driver. This is murder! Hopefully the victim rests in peace. May there be no accidents in heaven.
@ZhouCityPolice! @ZhouCityPeoplesHospital! @ZhouCityFireDept!]
It is a superficial world.
A pretty girl, especially if she's single, would always have thousands of followers on Weibo.
These girls were always on Weibo, and they kept a close watch over each others account in order to ask for follow-backs. This caused their numbers to spike.
The new Weibo post instantaneously gained thousands of views and over a hundred comments.
'The Site of A Lamborghini Crash.'
Each word was attention grabbing.
When they posted a picture of them together, it got even more shares and comments.
[The scene of the accident looks so bad.]
[Pity the driver.]
[Treasure your life, stay away from big trucks.]
[This horrible accident must be caused by an overloaded excavator or cement tanker! These vehicles are owned by construction companies, and they always hire dumb drivers who drive around running red lights or driving in the opposite direction. To them, if they violate the law, they will be covered by the company, if they run over someone, they will be insured by the company. The insurance covers a few million yuan.]
[Correction to the comment above! Truck drivers do not want to bear the responsibility of excavator drivers or cement tanker drivers. Truck drivers have had to take a loan of a few hundred thousand yuan to get their trucks. They always drive better than those with small cars, and they know the law better. They're still carrying their debt of a few hundred yuan— if there are any accidents, their trucks would be repossessed, and they would have to pay a fine. If they miss any delivery deadlines, their few months' worth of work would go to waste.]
[The OP's location is in Zhou City. Zhou City will definitely go viral now. Last night, a lamborghini fell off a cliff, and today another met with a horrible accident.]
[The family fortune of someone who can afford a race car can definitely compete with the bosses behind these construction vehicles — the driver will never get away with it.]
The number of shares increased, and people working in the various industries saw them. Even professionals saw the photos.
[Based on pieces of the tires and rearview mirror, this is a Lamborghini Aventador.It's worth is in the eight digit category.] A comment from a car-lover read.
[Two Aventadors crashed in the same city consecutively?] Read a comment from a journalist.
All of a sudden, there was an odd comment!
[Everyone, look at the number plates! It's the same Aventador from the crash and death last night!] It was a comment from a resident of Zhou City.
'What?' Everyone was shocked.
Once people began comparing photos from both incidents: BOOM!
It was the same number plate. Weibo blew up.
[F*ck!]
[What is this?]
[How did a car that was totaled in a crash the night before appear again in the city?]
[Why the suspicion and horror? I'm always alone at night!]
Everyone was terrified! The more they thought about, the more horrendous it became.
[Run, OP! Leave the scene and run towards somewhere crowded! Don't look back!]
The incident was going truly viral. But the next time Weibo was refreshed, the entire post was removed.
The OP was also permanently banned .
There was an official explanation instead.
[An OP edited photos of an accident to spread fake news for personal gain. Moreover, the rumor which was spread through online channels, resulted in a highly negative social impact within a short period of time. The OP's account has therefore been permanently banned. Here's a reminder for everyone to adhere to the law and work together to create a healthy environment online--one should not believe or share anything online blindly.]
There was a picture of the Officials from the Zhou City Council.
The girls had claimed that there had been a horrible accident, but the photos did not portray the truth. The officials urged netizens to not fall for rumors.
Once Fang Zheng left the scene, he made his way to People's Hospital.
He did not go home right away.
He was careful, changing his route multiple times, taking detours to avoid being followed.
'Better safe than sorry.'
Fang Zheng was not yet aware that the scene he had caused had gone viral on Weibo. By that time, he was close to the People's Hospital.
