Chapter 203 Torture

Ten minutes after Chen Guangsheng entered Manager Xue's office, the office door was reopened.

This student, who had been making an impassioned speech for the future of specially recruited graduates in front of the station square in the morning, was now as embarrassed as if he had been doused by heavy rain.

His face was pale, and when he walked out of the office, there was a burst of disdainful sneers.

"Where did the wild dog come from! How dare you come to my place to borrow money? What kind of shame do you really think you are a person? And you said that I owe you design fees? Who do you think you are! The Institute of Geology officially gave you What’s my identity as a researcher? Those shabby drawings still want money from me!”

The sound was so loud that many people in the hall could hear it. They all turned their attention to Chen Guangsheng, who walked out silently with his head lowered.

The eyes around him were very dazzling, like knives, scratching Chen Guangsheng's body.

He hurriedly walked through the corridor and left the building quickly. His hunched figure completely lost the vigor he had in the morning and looked more like a dying old man.

Watching him leave, they sat in the corner of the rest area and watched the show. The two people who were drinking tea slowly also had sneers on their faces.

"Look, look, he wants to organize and set up some kind of joint development meeting. Do you really think that he is so lucky that with a little bit of ability, he can control the right to speak? Don't think about whose mouth they are robbing. Eat eat.”

The person behind the man who looked like a skinny monkey couldn't help but ask.

"Boss, what if he finally succeeds? If the gentlemen in the cabinet really agree to their official organization, will he seek revenge from us?"

"Don't worry, I have channels. The Gongjin Association may be recognized, but the person who controls the Gongjin Association and becomes the president will definitely not be him. How did the current chaos in other cities in the Eastern Region happen? How could those strategists not consider these things? Chen Guangsheng is destined to be a wild dog on the roadside in his life. The more outstanding he is, the more talented he is, and the more ambitious he is, the more likely he is to survive. The worse it gets!"

The thin monkey man stood up from his chair. He sneered and put out the cigarette in his hand, then took out his communicator and made a call.

"Get everything ready. I want to see how long this kid can last! Now the central government's legal household registration has become sky-high. As long as we can completely tame him, we will make a lot of money! "

After leaving the office building, Chen Guangsheng stood on the roadside blankly. He now didn't know where he was going and what to do.

If the operation cannot be performed before tomorrow, his father's life will not be saved!

In less than a day, 500,000, where will he earn it?

Or are you going to steal? Go grab it?

The moment this idea came to Chen Guangsheng's mind, he shook his head firmly.

Why didn't he agree to the threat of the person on the phone and continue to do the shameful things he had done before?

It’s because now everyone has hope!

The Joint Development Association has been initially established. As long as it finally meets the cabinet's requirements and is recognized by the central citizens, at least the special admissions students who were previously regarded as inferior to pigs and dogs like the labor farmers will be able to turn around and have the opportunity to make their own progress. sound!

And as the initiator and leader, if he still does that kind of thing at such a critical moment and loses control, it will be a stain that the Gongjin Association will never be able to clean away!

This is a matter related to the future of the entire central government and even the entire Eastern District of more than 100,000 special enrollment students. Chen Guangsheng must not allow his own problems to destroy the hopes and efforts of so many people!

But was he really going to watch helplessly as his father, who had almost died of exhaustion in a factory to raise him in order to support him in college, died because of him in the end?

Chen Guangsheng closed his eyes in pain, and at this moment, a text message was suddenly sent to his communicator. When he saw the content of the text message, his body could not help but start to tremble!

Soon, he found the nearest bank nearby.

“Why is my money frozen!”

The teller at the front desk retrieved his account and answered in a professional tone.

"The news we got here is that someone reported that 32,817 yuan in your account deposits came from irregular sources. According to regulations, the bank has temporarily frozen this part of your property. After the Criminal Department has cleared your funds and there are no problems, the account will be The funds will be released automatically.”

Chen Guangsheng slumped down on the chair at the front desk of the bank in despair. It wasn't until a security guard came to him and asked him tentative questions that he stood up again and staggered out of here.

He didn't understand why things were like this.

Obviously everything was developing in a good direction before. In the morning, he was still working hard for his ideals and ambitions. In the afternoon, he became so embarrassed and humble.

As of now, Chen Guangsheng only has three hundred yuan in cash left in his body, and this money is not enough to pay for his father's surgery, even for one day's hospitalization.

He just wandered aimlessly on the street like a zombie. When the sky gradually darkened, he sat blankly on the curb beside the road, staring blankly at the passing pedestrians and vehicles.

Chen Guangsheng didn't know what to do at all. How should he go back and explain to his mother? How should he face his father?

If his father really died in bed today because of him, would he still be in the mood to continue to fight for the future of the Tongjinhui?

Chen Guangsheng questioned himself again and again, and felt painful and desperate about these questions again and again.

He covered his face, and as the night fell, there was noise and noise in his ears.

The conversations of pedestrians, the honking of cars on the road, the music on the GG card, the greetings of merchants doing promotional activities, and the voice of the lottery shop announcing the winning numbers

Chen Guangsheng felt like he had turned his back on the whole world. He was isolated and out of tune with such a bustling and prosperous world.

Just as he stared at the ground blankly, his mind was blank, a lottery ticket fell to the ground at some point, and the numbers on it were seen unconsciously by him, and the winning numbers of the period were still repeated in his ears.

When the winning numbers were repeated for the third time, Chen Guangsheng's originally empty eyes gradually regained their spirit!

His hands began to tremble, and then he slowly reached out and took the lottery ticket that was left on the ground!

Chen Guangsheng looked around, everyone seemed to be doing their own things, no one was looking for lottery tickets, and no one noticed him.

This made Chen Guangsheng swallow his saliva subconsciously. He turned his head to look at the lottery shop behind him. The LED screen that was scrolling numbers still showed the winning numbers just now.

It was exactly the same as the current lottery ticket he picked up!

This time the grand prize is a full one million!

As long as he took the lottery ticket and exchanged the prize money, all the problems would be solved, and the troubles that troubled him would no longer be an obstacle!

At this moment, Chen Guangsheng's heartbeat paused for half a beat, and he felt that everything was as unreal as a dream in a trance.

But the desire for money couldn't make him think so much anymore. He flushed and rushed into the lottery shop eagerly, shouting.

"I want to redeem the prize! I want to redeem the prize!"

The owner of the lottery shop looked at the lottery ticket he was waving, and he didn't seem surprised or surprised at all. After taking the lottery ticket and checking it roughly, he smiled and congratulated.

"Congratulations, sir, you are so lucky that you won the first prize! But if you want to redeem the prize, you have to come tomorrow. It's too late today, and some procedures cannot be completed for the time being."

Chen Guangsheng stared at him with heavy breathing.

"I need money urgently. I can sell this lottery ticket to you! You only need to give me 700,000 for a lottery ticket worth one million! 700,000 will do!"

The owner of the lottery shop was obviously moved, but he was still hesitant.

"But I don't have that much cash on hand. I can only take out 500,000 at most now."

"You can give me 500,000 first! Sign a receipt for the remaining 200,000! Wait until you redeem the prize and return it to me!"

Chen Guangsheng made a decision immediately. At this time, he was no longer depressed and desperate as before, but felt extremely fortunate!

After all, not all roads in this world are dead ends!

His father could still be saved, and he no longer had to beg like a dog, let alone suffer humiliation and be looked at differently by everyone!

However, just when he had reached an agreement with the owner of the lottery shop and was ready to exchange the one million lottery tickets for 500,000 in cash and an IOU of 200,000.

A middle-aged woman suddenly rushed into the lottery shop with a group of people in a rage!

"It's him! This shameless thing! He stole my lottery tickets! Now he dares to redeem the prize!"

The atmosphere in the lottery shop froze instantly!

The boss's hand, which was originally counting the cash, also paused, and his eyes looked at Chen Guangsheng in front of the counter with vigilance.

Chen Guangsheng was at a loss to the extreme, and the countless eyes that looked like they were looking at a thief all gathered on him, making him feel like he was about to be drowned!

He murmured in defense.

"No, no. I didn't. I didn't steal it. I didn't steal it!"

"You didn't steal it? Do you have evidence of buying a lottery ticket? Whether it's the surveillance in the store or my consumption record, it can prove that I bought this lottery ticket! Everyone, come and see! Come and see! There is a thief who stole something and admitted it!"

"No! No! I didn't steal it! I picked it up! I picked it up!"

Chen Guangsheng defended himself weakly, but no one who was watching around was listening to what he said. They just pointed at him, which made him unable to bear it anymore. He threw the lottery ticket in his hand on the ground and turned around to run away!

He ran wildly on the bustling street, as if he wanted to escape from this world completely!

The wind whistled past his ears, and these sounds were like the remnants of those mocking and disgusting sounds, making his brain feel a buzz!

I don't know how long he ran, and I don't know where he ran to. Chen Guangsheng ran until he had no strength left in his body, and finally stopped.

He gasped heavily, like a drowning person.

When he held his knees and breathed rapidly for more than ten minutes before he regained consciousness, he realized that he had run blindly all the way to a street full of lights and wine.

There were all kinds of entertainment venues everywhere, such as bars, casinos, massage parlors, and karaoke bars.

The even louder sounds bombarded Chen Guangsheng's brain. He didn't know when his tears had already flowed all over his face. He only realized now that he was crying.

Tears ran down his face, finally gathering on his chin and dripping onto the ground.

Chen Guangsheng leaned against a dark corner at the edge of an alley and sat down weakly. He shed tears silently, as if he was completely surrounded and swallowed by the darkness, unable to extricate himself and unable to escape.

He just sat there until the night got darker and darker, and the people who indulged themselves to death on this street became more and more crazy.

He and they were like two creatures from two different worlds.

At this moment, a gambler who came out of the casino and cursed noticed him. The gambler walked up to Chen Guangsheng with a malicious look on his face.

"Brother, I'm a little tight on money. Can you lend me some money to spend?"

Chen Guangsheng was like an empty shell without a soul. He didn't answer or resist, and let the gambler take away his last few hundred dollars in cash from him.

It's not that he couldn't resist. The awakening of the rules had long made his physical fitness far superior to that of ordinary people, but Chen Guangsheng didn't know what the point of resisting was.

Now he only feels that everything is illusory, his life is meaningless, maybe his struggle and so-called ideals are just a joke.

Time passed by minute by minute, more than an hour later, the gambler who took the last money from him walked to the exchange counter on the other side with a full of large chips in his arms and laughed happily!

When passing the alley, he seemed to have just discovered that the lucky star he met tonight had not left yet. He was in a good mood and threw a chip from the pile of chips and rolled it to Chen Guangsheng's side.

"Good brother! I can win back all my capital and make so much extra money because of you! If you borrow, you must pay back! I will pay you three times the money! Don't say I am not righteous!"

Chen Guangsheng stared blankly at the chip worth one thousand yuan that rolled beside him. He didn't know what he was thinking. He just picked up the chip gently, and then turned his eyes to the lively casino full of shouting, cheering, annoyance, shouting, and crying.

He slowly got up from the ground, his body seemed to have no brain to think about how to act, walked into the casino, and used the lowest-denomination chip to sit on a gambling table!

The gamblers around him didn't mind how small his chips were, and even welcomed him to participate in this gambling game.

He had never gambled before, and he didn't know how to gamble at all. He just bet his only chip when betting, and then he was stubborn to the end!

He won the first time, and his capital of one thousand yuan doubled directly to two thousand yuan!

The second time, he still threw all the chips in his hand, and he won again!

The third time, it was still all-in! It was as if he was not a poor ghost with nothing, but a rich man who could spend a lot of money! And this time he still won!

Chen Guangsheng's eyes were lit up again!

He seemed to see some hope. The fourth, fifth, and sixth time, he bet all his chips every time, and he could win like this every time!

Under the glaring lights, with countless gamblers around the gambling table cheering for his luck, Chen Guangsheng felt that he had also become crazy.

He began to cheer with the gamblers, twisting his body together, and drinking together!

When the opponent at the table was under pressure and did not dare to open the cards, he also shouted and urged. When he won again and again, his eyes were filled with bloodshot, and his face could no longer be seen in its original appearance!

He won for an unknown number of times. After changing two rounds of opponents at the table, Chen Guangsheng was already surrounded by chips!

Now he has won from a thousand yuan to three hundred thousand!

At this time, everyone at the table felt that they had a sure win. Everyone threw out a lot of chips, and even a few seemed to be driven by his madness and followed all the chips!

Chen Guangsheng trembled with his hands and pushed all the chips in front of him out as before!

This was the last time and his last hope!

As long as he won again this time, he could stop and make enough money for the surgery!

As everyone held their breath, the biggest gamble of the night was opened!

It was as if Chen Guangsheng had used up all his luck tonight, and luck did not come to him this time.

He lost completely, without a single chip left, and the gamblers around him sighed and lamented that they did not see the legendary miracle tonight.

All the money was lost this time, and Chen Guangsheng, who was not qualified to continue sitting at the card table, stayed in his seat.

Lose and gain, gain and lose, lose and gain, gain and lose again!

The mental torture again and again really drove him crazy!

At the urging of the dealer, Chen Guangsheng, who was penniless, suddenly desperately picked up the chips on the gambling table!

"No! Can't! This is my father's life! This is his life! I can't lose! I can't lose! Come again! I can come again! This time is an accident! This time must be an accident!"

His struggle and madness finally attracted the security of the casino.

There were even two first-level scientists among the security guards. They worked together to pin Chen Guangsheng to the ground, and then they punched and kicked him, leaving him with skin and flesh torn and bloody. In the end, they threw him into the dark alley next to the casino like a dead dog.

"You can't afford to gamble, but you still come here? Where did this blind stray dog ​​come from!"

A mouthful of saliva fell on Chen Guangsheng's face, and he lay on the ground, motionless like a dead man.

The cold evening breeze blew, causing the tortured man on the ground to tremble uncontrollably.

After a long time, a sob sounded from under his face buried in his arms.

He surrendered.

What ideals, ambitions, and future, those things are all fake, all illusions!

He accepted his fate.

He resigned himself to the fate of escaping the communicator from his pocket and placing his finger on the phone of the skinny monkey.

Just as he closed his eyes and was powerless to press it.

A gentle sound of footsteps suddenly sounded in his ears.

Chen Guangsheng raised his head and saw a tall and slender young man wearing a black windbreaker and a black bracelet on his wrist walking in front of him.

The young man looked into his eyes, raised his eyebrows as if he was quite surprised by his miserable appearance, and asked.

"Chen Guangsheng? It's not easy to find you. I have a business deal. I wonder if you are interested in doing it?"
