Chapter 4. Cope

Section I. Sakura Muto's anger

As the morning sun rose, in the luxurious suite of a high-end hotel in Shizuoka, Japan, Sakura Muto paced back and forth anxiously, fiddling with her beloved dagger.

Yesterday evening (Christmas Eve), Kenichi Ito's car had departed from Tokyo Comprehensive University and after a long journey, finally parked on a street in Shizuoka. The battery of the electric car had completely run out.

Through a tracker previously installed on the car by the Asahi agaru-kai organization, Sakura Muto had learned the specific location of the car and led her subordinates to Shizuoka to find it.

Shortly after, one of her female subordinates, named Aoko Akasai, who was also dressed in leather, rushed into the suite. Akasai was Sakura Muto's capable assistant.

Before Akasai could speak, Sakura Muto asked eagerly, "Did you find him? Where is he?"

Akasai anxiously replied, "Boss, we've been tricked. That guy never came to Shizuoka. I checked the surveillance video on that street and found that no one was in the car from the beginning."

Sakura Muto angrily said, "What? Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! He fooled us again. When I catch him, I will torture him well."

She then ordered Akasai to extract the information from the driving recorder in Ito's car. After studying it for a while, they found that after leaving the " Tennokaku Arrow " laboratory, Ito's car had only briefly stopped at Tokyo Comprehensive University on the way to Shizuoka. Thus, they concluded that Ito had disembarked at Tokyo Comprehensive University and had escaped on foot, and that he was likely still in Tokyo.

Sakura Muto asked Akasai, "How many of our Blood Sakura group are still in Tokyo?"

Akasai replied, "There are only nine of us, including two members who are ambushing outside Ito 's apartment."

"Order the two members who were ambushed outside the apartment stay still, and have the other seven members immediately search around Tokyo Comprehensive University, especially keeping an eye on nearby police stations and patrol boxes, never letting Ito contact the police. Also, notify everyone here to gather and follow me back to Tokyo." Sakura Muto commanded.

"Yes!" Akasai replied. She thought for a moment and suggested to Sakura Muto, "However, the area around Tokyo Comprehensive University is vast and there are many patrol boxes. Perhaps our manpower is not enough. Should we contact the leaders of other groups and ask them to send people to help?"

Sakura Muto became agitated and said, "No, definitely not! If other group leaders find out that I failed, they will report it to my godfather. He will not only be disappointed in me but also punish me severely. So we must keep my failure a secret for now. As long as we find Ito within one or two days, we can act as if nothing happened."

"I understand. What about Shibata? He acted with you last night. He's from the Strong Dragon group and only listens to your brother's orders. He won't keep your secret," Akasai said.

Sakura Muto smiled cunningly and said, "Don't worry about him. I already disposed of Shibata last night. In short, do as I tell you first. Just follow my instructions. "

"Yes! I will do it right away," Akasai said and then quickly leaving the room.

After Akasai left, Sakura Muto couldn't contain her anger anymore and started wildly swinging her dagger, venting her frustration on everything in the room.

Since she debuted at the age of 18, she had completed 74 assassination missions flawlessly, targeting heavily guarded political and business figures, fierce gang leaders, and well-trained police elites. Despite their strength, she still managed to assassinate them with her agility and the team's meticulous planning. Due to her outstanding abilities and unique background, the 24-year-old Sakura Muto was promoted by the President of the Asahi agaru-kai to be the leader of a special assassination group—the Blood Sakura group—which was responsible for various assassination operations.

Last night, her brother Ryu Muto ordered her to kill Kenichi Ito immediately after confirming that Ito had successfully tested his experiment. She thought Kenichi Ito was just a harmless scientist and didn't take him seriously, but she was wrong. Kenichi Ito's cunning and adaptability greatly exceeded her expectations, which resulted in her unprecedented failure. She regretted her carelessness and hated Kenichi Ito with a passion, wishing to skin him alive.

Section II. Scary organization

Meanwhile, Kenichi Ito was hiding in his "secret residence," using his old laptop to search for information about the Asahi agaru-kai. His internet signal came from a wireless router in the nearby orphanage. He had installed the router secretly during his time there and hid it in a very discreet location. For years, he had been "borrowing" the internet signal from the router in his "secret residence," and it had never been discovered.

By collecting various information on the Internet, Ito finally had a general understanding of the Asahi agaru-kai.

Among developed countries, Japan is the only one that recognizes the legality of yakuza gangs, allowing organized crime groups to exist within the country openly. Thus, the Japanese yakuza (known as " Violence Group " in their specific terminology) has a vast amount of power and influence, running rampant for a long time in Japan.

As of today, over thirty groups nationwide have been designated as "designated violent groups" by the Japanese government, with the Asahi agaru-kai being one of the biggest and most influential. According to data disclosed by the Japanese officials, the Asahi agaru-kai currently has over 30,000 fixed members, with members spread across the entirety of Japan, with bases in all prefectures. Furthermore, in addition to within Japan, Asahi agaru-kai members are active around the world, including in Europe, America, South America, and Southeast Asia.

The Asahi agaru-kai has intricate ties with Japan's political sphere, with political powers frequently sheltering the gang due to the way they control political parties through political bribes and votes. The funds and votes from the Asahi agaru-kai can be seen behind every election in Japan. Not only do they provide an endless stream of funds for candidates, but they also actively "organize" people to vote for them. Thus, the high-ups of the Asahi agaru-kai are often guests of honor for politicians and high-ranking officials, and the same goes vice versa.

Moreover, in recent years, in order to further infiltrate and control the political circles, in addition to political donations, the Asahi agaru-kai has also begun to use threats, lures, attacks and other means against certain political dignitaries, so that they completely submit to the Asahi agaru-kai and become its political puppets.

In addition to being one of Japan's centers of "hidden power," the Asahi agaru-kai is also the core of Japan's huge underground economy network. According to Japanese financial media reports, If all the Asahi agaru-kai's hidden assets were taken into account, the Asahi agaru-kai should be regarded as Japan's biggest financial conglomerate. The Asahi agaru-kai's annual revenue is conservatively estimated to be as high as $180 billion, far exceeding the GDP of many small to medium-sized countries, making them almost equivalent to a nation. A part of the Asahi agaru-kai's huge wealth comes from traditional illegal business, such as drug trafficking, underground casinos, usury, arms smuggling, human trafficking, pornography and money laundering, while another part comes from legitimate investment income, such as business investments in real estate, finance, energy, IT technology, and entertainment media.

Many news reports have shown that although the Asahi agaru-kai is essentially no different from other gangs, being a ruthless organization driven solely by profit, their goal and organizational culture are noticeably different from that of other gangs. The Asahi agaru-kai has always advocated for "revitalizing Japan as its duty and solving people's difficulties with the chivalrous way".

The members of Asahi agaru-kai generally believe that while their actions are indeed for their own self-interest, at the same time, they have met the special needs of many people and resolved many problems that the government cannot solve, such as preventing espionage, disaster relief, mediation of disputes, and charity forcing donations, making contributions to Japan's security and economic development. Therefore, they neither deny the evil side of their actions nor hesitate to show the good side to the people. In their view, "evil" is their means of action, while "good" is the result of their actions. Additionally, Asahi agaru-kai places great importance on traditional Japanese culture, requiring members to not only learn Japanese history and culture but also to believe in Shintoism and follow Bushido. Every year, they even organize large-scale visits to shrine and participate in the Gion Festival Yamahoko Parade.

Section III. A lifesaver

As Kenichi Ito learned more about Asahi agaru-kai, he became increasingly pessimistic about his future.

He closed his laptop and slumped by the window, gazing at the distant cloudy sky while pondering his future.

He thought to himself, "Asahi agaru-kai has a monopoly on everything in Japan. Do I really have a chance to escape their pursuit and flee abroad? The old man's plan was too naive. He thought that by getting a few fake passports and finding some political friends to help, we could flee overseas. However, these politicians are often the least reliable and may sell us out to Asahi agaru-kai for a little benefit. So for safety's sake, I absolutely cannot rely on the old man's so-called 'friends.' However, besides them, who can I rely on? It's very dangerous to go against Asahi agaru-kai. Who would be willing to risk their lives for me?"

As he thought about it, he opened his phone and looked at the list of contacts stored on it. (Due to fear of being tracked, the SIM card and GPS module hardware in his phone had long been abandoned elsewhere.) He flipped through the list of friends several times but could not find a friend who had both a deep friendship with him and enough ability to help him.

He sighed and thought to himself, "Alas, the people around me are unreliable. I have to think of other ways ... Hmm, maybe I should change my perspective and think about the problem from a broader perspective ..."

He thought for a moment and suddenly had an idea: "Right, wormhole transportation technology is a revolutionary advanced technology. Like the invention of steam engines, electricity, and the internet, its emergence will definitely bring great changes to people's production and living habits and make people's living standards leapfrog. This means that wormhole transportation technology contains enormous business opportunities and is a wealth-creation opportunity that businessmen dream of. In fact, with more and more breakthroughs in the basic theories related to wormhole transportation technology in recent years, many international business giants have expressed their willingness to invest in the development of this emerging technology. It was just a matter of helplessness that the funding required for the related R&D project was too high, and the results of the project had a high degree of uncertainty, which made all those business giants hesitate and abandon the idea. In the end, it was the organized crime group, Asahi agaru-kai, that took action and invested a lot of manpower and material resources in this technology R&D, which facilitated breakthroughs in the most critical aspects of this technology development. Unfortunately, these bastards had no intention of using this technology for commercial purposes. Instead, they planned to apply it to militarization and weaponization, using it for evil purposes. It was so despicable and stupid.

Now that I have successfully experimented with this technology and mastered the ability to create micro-wormholes, I am now a "treasure" for those business giants, with a great deal of potential value. As long as I reveal the news of me having this ready-to-use technology, they will definitely be eager to get close to me and recruit me, just like a shark that smells blood. Among these business giants, there are bound to be some entrepreneurs who are particularly ambitious and willing to confront Asahi agaru-kai for this technology. Therefore, these entrepreneurs are my real hope to escape from the pursuit of Asahi agaru-kai and flee overseas."

At this point, he felt a glimmer of hope and became a little excited, but then he shook his head and thought: "No. Even if there are entrepreneurs willing to help me escape, I cannot accept blindly. I have to choose carefully. Otherwise, the result may be disastrous. I need to seek refuge from someone who is truly worth it. This person should meet at least two conditions. First, he must have enough determination and ability to deal with Asahi agaru-kai, otherwise, if the escape operation fails and I fall into the hands of Asahi agaru-kai, I am doomed. Those who come to help me will also sacrifice their lives in vain.

Second, he must have the same position as me and firmly oppose the weaponization of wormhole transmission technology. According to the current situation, even if I go abroad, there will probably be many forces like Asahi agaru-kai coveting this technology, attempting to apply it to military fields. Even some government may put pressure on companies to offer this technology to the military. Therefore, companies with this technology are bound to face pressure from all sides, and only people with strong wills can withstand the pressure and protect this technology from abuse.

Although there may be few entrepreneurs who meet these conditions, the world is so big, and there are so many companies, as long as I work hard to find, I can always find them.

The current problem is that the phone cannot be used, and I cannot go out casually. The only tool I can use is the computer network connected to the IP address of the orphanage. This will reduce efficiency, but fortunately, the network information is developed now, and I can still collect a lot of useful information through the network and contact people I want to contact through email, social media, and other means, even if the operation is a bit cumbersome. However, there is no alternative, I can only make do with it.

Well, now that the goal is clear, I should take action right away. Come on, I can do it. I have done something as difficult as creating miniature wormholes, and I will definitely find an entrepreneur worthy of my trust. ”

Section IV. Raj's cultivation

In the early morning, a sudden ringtone woke up Kajol from a nightmare.

Kajol got up from the bed in a daze and picked up her phone. She saw a message from Raj that said, "Kajol, I'm too bored at home and want to go on a trip for a few days. I've already left. I'll take care of myself, you don't have to worry about me."

After reading the message, Kajol thought, "This poor child must have chosen to escape because he didn't want to see me being bullied and he couldn't do anything about it. He couldn't accept the cruel reality. He must be in a lot of pain right now. It's good for him to go out and play for a while. At least he can relax and not always think about those painful things. And I don't have to worry that he will cause trouble for Rajan and give Rajan a chance to hurt him."

So she replied to the message, "Okay, I got it. Have a pleasant journey and have fun."

However, Kajol was wrong. Raj did not want to escape, but to go for " training ". He wanted to learn how to control the "Divine power" inside his body and become stronger to protect Kajol.

As planned, Raj brought food, clothes, and a tent to the depths of the jungle in the Sanjay Gandhi National Park and set up his tent by a large lake in the jungle.

The trees by the lake were lush and green, reflecting in the sparkling lake, creating a beautiful scenery. Raj looked at these pleasing views, and his originally suppressed and heavy mood suddenly became much brighter.

After setting up his tent, he wandered along the lake slowly, stopping from time to time to check if there were any other tourists around. After taking a big circle, he confirmed that there were no other people around except for a few ascetic monks who didn't care about worldly affairs, so he settled down and started practicing.

Since he knew nothing about the "Divine power", Raj had no specific practice plan and could only grope around.

He tried using all his strength to swing his fist and hit a big tree because he remembered that the "Divine power" had appeared twice before when he was vigorously hitting something. However, this time the "Divine power" did not respond, and instead, it made his palm very swollen and painful. But miraculously, the pain quickly subsided, just like before.

Then, Raj tried to change different postures and hit the big tree with force, but it still didn't work. The "Divine power" still didn't respond. He sat disappointedly under the big tree, thinking, "What's going on? Isn't using all my strength enough? What's wrong?"

He closed his eyes and tried to recall every detail of the scenes from the first two times his divine power had been triggered. After half an hour of deep contemplation, he suddenly had an epiphany: "Could it be related to my mental state? It seems that my divine power always appears when I am nervous and focused."

Excited by his realization, he stood up again, facing the tree and preparing to attack. This time he didn't rush to strike the tree, but concentrated intensely on it, imagining that it was his enemy Rajan, approaching him with malice.

Upon "seeing" Rajan, the angry emotion of Raj surged up. Instinctively, he punched hard, visualizing Rajan as the tree. A bright light flashed, and with a cracking sound, the tree, thicker than two people, was broken by Raj's bare fist.

" I did it! It's really related to my mental state." Raj shouted excitedly. He felt that he had discovered the key to using his divine power. Although he couldn't describe it in words, he had truly captured it. It was a state of following his heart and using his strength accordingly.

Full of confidence, he couldn't wait to try his second punch. Soon, he found another big tree as his opponent and reproduced the scene of his first punch, swinging his fist again. However, his divine power failed again, and the punch had no effect on the tree.

The author's narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

He looked at the tree, startled for a moment, then realized what had happened. He was too excited to enter the concentrated state of mind as he did before, and his mind had become cluttered. Once there were distractions, it was difficult to trigger the divine power inside his body smoothly.

Therefore, he tried every means to calm himself down and forced himself not to think of unnecessary things in order to use his divine power again. However, the more he did this, the more his mood became confused. He found it very difficult to maintain a state of concentration and was easily distracted by various things. So, despite his efforts to practice all day, only a few times were successful, while most of the time ended in failure.

In the next three days, Raj practiced relentlessly, but did not make much progress. Exhausted, he lay down by the campfire at night, gazing at the starry sky in contemplation. After days of hard practice, he had realized that the key to controlling divine power was controlling his mind. To wield divine power at will, he had to learn to master his own mental thoughts. Otherwise, he would be wasting his efforts no matter how hard he practiced. However, the change in mental thoughts was a very subtle and indescribable thing. He couldn't just blindly fumble around here and expect to make a breakthrough. Only through special mental training could he reach that level. Therefore, he decided to end his "training" here and search for the method of mental cultivation after returning home, and then return here to continue practicing.

So, the next morning, Raj woke up early, packed his bags, and prepared to leave for home. He carried the heavy luggage and walked along the forest path he had taken before, heading towards the exit of the forest park.

Since this practice did not achieve the expected results, he felt quite disappointed. He didn't have the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery of the forest along the way, just focusing on moving forward.

Not long after walking in the forest, he met a wandering ascetic who was practicing meditation by a clear stream. This ascetic was skinny and dressed in tattered clothes, sitting in the lotus position on a large stone, deep in meditation.

Raj was involuntarily attracted to the ascetic and stopped to observe him closely. Having some understanding of yoga from his mother and Kajol, he recognized that the ascetic had entered the "concentration" state, as he could feel that the ascetic's body seemed to have merged with everything around it.

Then, Raj had a flash of inspiration and thought, "Isn't this the spiritual practice I want to pursue? What other spiritual practice is more useful than yoga? It seems that I don't need to find other methods. This ascetic in front of me is my best teacher."

So, Raj patiently waited for the ascetic to finish meditating and asked the ascetic to teach him meditation techniques. The ascetic was pleased to pass on all he knew to Raj, seeing how earnest Raj was in learning. From then on, Raj began to follow the ascetic and learn meditation techniques.

The ascetic told Raj that the yoga he practiced was Raja Yoga. Compared with other types of yoga, Raja Yoga focuses more on intention and breath control, which is the only way to the spiritual world. When practicing meditation in Raja Yoga, the practitioner feels the movement of the body through intention and controls the breath in the body to produce different divine powers. Before meditation, practitioners must restrain their behavior and learn to control their breathing and senses, internal restraint, breath regulation, and sense control. During meditation, the practitioner must focus on their inner world, their imagination of the divine, and their thoughts on life.

To help Raj better understand the essentials, the ascetic explained some legends and beliefs about Shiva, his own understanding of "Brahma-atma-aikyam ", and the regulations that must be followed. Then, he demonstrated and taught Raj how to sit and adjust his posture, breathing, and sensory intake during meditation.

As Raj had been influenced by Indian culture since childhood, and his physical and sensory experience differed from ordinary people, he could fully comprehend everything that the ascetic had taught him, even though he was young and inexperienced. He followed the ascetic's guidance and gradually began to practice meditation. In less than three days, he successfully entered the state of "concentration".

When he enters the state of "concentration", he can clearly feel a powerful energy lurking within his body. Through his thoughts, he can activate this energy and control its circulation between different organs in his body, or even let it flow outside his body within a certain range. At the same time, he found that his sensory functions became more comprehensive and detailed when collected, allowing him to vividly and wonderfully perceive everything around him, such as the flow of creek water, the swaying of flowers, plants and trees in the wind, and the dancing of birds and insects in the forest.

After mastering the meditation skills, Raj thanked and bid farewell to the ascetic monk and returned to the lake deep inside the forest to continue practicing the use of his "Divine power". With the help of meditation skills, his mind became more focused and he made rapid progress in subsequent practice, achieving outstanding results.

After two days of practice, Raj completely mastered the use of "Divine power" as if he was reborn. He gained a comprehensive understanding of the energy that exists within him, to the point that he did not even have to deliberately concentrate, and could freely use his "Divine power" at will.

He discovered that when he guided his "Divine power" to a certain part of his body, the strength of that part would be multiplied several times. For example, when he infused "Divine power" into his arm, he could easily break a large tree and even smash a giant boulder. When he infused "Divine power" into his thigh, he could leap several meters high and effortlessly cross a distance over ten meters away. What's more impressive was that he could output his "Divine power" in the form of scorching energy, causing tremendous destruction to anything it comes into contact with, like a cannonball.

If he were to participate in the Olympics now, he would surely win all the gold medals with these astonishing "Divine powers".

However, Raj never considered using his "Divine power" for personal gain. He only had one thought in his mind.

Feeling the immense "Divine power" within him, Raj knelt down with joy, clasping his hands together and looking up at the sky, murmuring, "Great Shiva, you are the highest god in the world, the creator god, and the destroyer god. Thank you for giving me rebirth, freeing me from the bottomless abyss of darkness, and giving me unparalleled Divine power. Your grace will be engraved in my heart no matter how many cycles of reincarnation I experience. I will never let you down and become your 'trident' in the human world, eliminating all sinners with demonic souls, stopping the proliferation of evil, and spreading your kindness."

After taking the oath, he packed up his belongings and left the Sanjay Gandhi National Park, taking a suburban train back home. Raj, who had learned to control his "Divine power" as he wished, could not wait to settle scores with Rajan.

Section V. Saving female officer in a slum

When Raj returned to Mumbai city by train, it was already evening. After getting off the train, he was a bit hungry and decided to grab dinner at a street food stall near the station.

As he was enjoying his meal, he suddenly heard a loud commotion coming from the nearby slum area. Curious, Raj left his half-eaten chapati and followed the noise.

When he arrived, he saw a group of men armed with knives and sticks surrounding a female police officer in her twenties. One of the men had her held tightly while two others were harassing her with lewd language and inappropriate touching. Three other men stood on the sidelines, brandishing their weapons to intimidate any onlookers who might intervene.

The officer and the thugs were all covered in bruises and blood, obviously having just fought a violent battle. Though the onlookers wanted to help, they were too afraid of the menacing gang to take action, and so they stood by helplessly and shouted insults.

Raj couldn't bear to watch the expression of pain and despair on the officer's face as she was humiliated in public, and he immediately thought of Kajol's tragic experience, feeling enraged.

He rushed into the encirclement of the gangsters at lightning speed, and his arm activated "divine power", grabbed the two gangsters who were molesting the female officer, threw them fiercely and flew out, and then grabbed the thick arms of the burly gangster holding the policewoman, broke the arms abruptly, so that the female officer could be freed, and also kicked the burly gangster by the way. "Bang, bang, bang", the three gangsters fell to the ground almost at the same time, spraying blood from their mouths and letting out heart-rending screams.

The remaining three gangsters turned around to see what had happened to their accomplices. But before they could see what was happening, Raj launched a fierce attack on them. The three gangsters could not resist Raj's attack at all, and without even touching Raj with their weapons, they were all seriously injured and fell to the ground by the huge force of Raj. Fortunately, Raj showed mercy every time he struck, otherwise they would all be killed on the spot.

The crowd couldn't help but applaud and cheer as they witnessed Raj's heroic deeds in defeating the unruly gang in just a few seconds. Raj had never been praised and worshipped by so many people before, and he felt a little shy as he basked in their gratitude. The female officer quickly tied up the unconscious thugs and came to thank Raj for his help.

The female officer said to Raj, "Hello, I'm Fatima. Thank you so much for your help. Without your assistance, I would have been at the mercy of those beasts and would never be able to show my face again."

Raj replied shyly, "Don't mention it, it was the least I could do."

Fatima asked, "What's your name? Are you free later? I want to give you some gifts as a thank you. Also, can you come to the police station with me to give a statement?"

After a moment's hesitation, Raj replied, "My name is Raj. I acted because I couldn't stand those villains' actions. I don't need any reward from you, but I can accompany you to the police station as long as it won't take too long."

Fatima said, "You're really kind. Don't worry, giving a statement won't take too long. Let's go."

She borrowed a rundown pick-up truck from nearby residents and tied up the thugs to the back of the truck's cargo box, and then drove with Raj to the police station.

On the way, Fatima asked Raj, "Have you ever learned martial arts? like Kalaripayattu (Indian martial arts) or something similar. You were really strong just now, and I thought I saw your arms glowing. How did you do that?"

Raj said calmly, "I didn't learn any martial arts. What you saw was my 'divine power,' the power gifted to me by the gods."

Fatima looked at Raj in awe and asked in disbelief, "Divine power? Are you saying you have the same power as the gods?"

Raj shook his head and said, "Yes, that's exactly it. I know it sounds unbelievable, but what I said is true."

Fatima frowned and said, "Raj, I really want to believe what you're saying, but it's too far-fetched for me to accept right away. However, I believe you must be a boy with extraordinary abilities, because I just witnessed it. I hope when you give your statement later, you don't mention your 'divine power,' it might cause trouble for you."

Confused, Raj asked, "Why can't I say it? And what happened earlier, why were you caught by those people?"

Fatima said angrily, "I was set up by my own people. This afternoon, the chief of our police station suddenly arranged for me to patrol alone in that area, then I was attacked by those beasts during the patrol. They clearly came prepared, at the right time and place to ambush me. I recognized them as Sanjay Rajan's underlings. Sanjay Rajan is a underworld force that's been rampant in the slums for many years, often robbing, extorting, kidnapping, and oppressing the people in the slums. Because many police officers in the police station have received bribes from Sanjay Rajan, many police turn a blind eye to the atrocities committed by those beasts, and even condone and protect them.

I and a few honest colleagues are the only ones who cannot stand their actions and have repeatedly sabotaged their activities. Therefore, both the police in the station and the gangsters have long held a grudge against me and tried every means to get rid of me. This attack should have been a trap designed by both parties. If it weren't for you to help me out, they would have succeeded in their plan. And because of this, instead of praising your bravery, the police in the station may even find excuses to make things difficult for you. So, be careful not to mention anything about "divine power", otherwise they might think you're a lunatic and lock you up.

When Raj heard Rajan's name, he gritted his teeth and said, "Rajan, it's Rajan again. I will definitely make that beast pay!"

Fatima curiously asked, "Do you also know Rajan?"

Raj coldly replied, "Not only do I know him, but I also have a great grudge against him." Then he told Fatima about his grudge with Rajan, and expressed his intention to deal with Rajan.

After hearing this, Fatima was very worried about Raj and advised him, "Rajan is a very cunning and tricky person, and he has many subordinates. Even if you have extraordinary abilities, you are not his opponent. To deal with him, you need to formulate a thoughtful plan. In this regard, I can help you. But before that, please be patient and do not act rashly, okay?"

Raj said lightly, "No, I can do it by myself. I believe Lord Shiva will bless me to defeat him smoothly."

Seeing Raj's determined eyes, Fatima knew that further persuasions would be useless and reluctantly said, "Well then, please be careful and protect yourself. If you need my help, please contact me anytime. I am willing to fight alongside you."

A little later, the two of them arrived at the police station with the criminals in tow. The police inside indeed had an unfriendly attitude towards Raj. After Raj followed Fatima's prompts and gave his testimony, he went home alone. When he left the police station, he also heard Fatima arguing with someone inside. Raj thought to himself that Fatima was a brave woman who was not afraid of power and dared to stand up against evil forces.

Section VI. Jeremiah 's proposal

Since seeing a psychotherapist, Galen and Jeremiah have started to harmoniously coexist. During the day, Galen works regularly, and goes to bed early when he returns home in the evening. Once he falls asleep, it's Jeremiah's turn to take the stage. Jeremiah usually wakes up, reads, goes online, watches TV, moves around for an hour or two, then feels sleepy and goes back to bed.

Sometimes, when Galen encounters some tricky problems during the day and feels anxious, Jeremiah wakes up and resolves them for him. Every time Jeremiah appears, he records a video on Galen's phone to tell Galen what he has done, synchronizing information with Galen. This is how Jeremiah communicates with Galen every day.

Galen has gradually adapted to Jeremiah's presence, and in fact, he is very happy to have Jeremiah accompany him. Jeremiah always tells him interesting things he has never heard of, encouraging him to do something different and experience a different life. Jeremiah even occasionally plays chess with Galen, although it takes a day and a night for each move, it is still more interesting than playing with himself. Unconsciously, Galen has regarded Jeremiah as his close friend, and he is willing to accept and try out many of Jeremiah's suggestions.

One morning, on his way to work, Galen went to a café, enjoying a rich breakfast while looking at the video that Jeremiah had recorded for him the night before.

In the video, Jeremiah was sitting comfortably on a sofa, holding a glass of red wine and talking thoughtfully. "You know, I just noticed a very special piece of news. It is said that Tony Conner, founder of technology giant Wonderlyfe, is preparing to visit the Department of Commerce officials of three countries - Walongge, Mondukhan, and Romanov. Walongge and Romanov are important markets for his company's products, so it is not surprising that he is going to visit them. However, Mondukhan has a backward economy and a small population, so his sudden visit there is very suspicious. Therefore, I think that his purpose of this trip might be to build a super high-speed rail link among these three countries. Wonderlyfe has recently announced that its super high-speed rail technology is mature and can be put into operation. Walongge and Romanov have increasingly close diplomatic relations in recent years, and are interested in further promoting bilateral trade and economic exchanges. On the other hand, Mondukhan has also increased its openness to surrounding countries and actively introduced foreign capital to better develop its own economy. Therefore, this plan is in line with the interests of all countries, and it is also a good deal for Connor to help his company regain its momentum. Once Connor's lobbying is successful, the Wonderlyfe stock is expected to have a brief boost, and at the same time, buying stocks of listed companies in Mondukhan's mining and real estate fields will be an excellent investment opportunity. I think we can follow this idea and make a move…… "

Jeremiah took a sip of red wine and continued, "By the way, I have something important to discuss with you. Recently, I've been thinking that maybe we can establish our own company. Since you always try to numb yourself and shift your focus through busy work, why not try something more challenging and impactful? This can make your life more fulfilling. What's more, founding and managing a company can allow you to meet more people. Trust me, those people around you, like Tom who's always pretending to be loyal while taking advantage of you, Daniel who likes to flatter but backstabs, and Peggy who throws flirtatious glances while boasting about her promiscuity, they can't help you forget about your unfortunate past. You need some opportunities to meet more charming people, especially more attractive women. As for the financial aspect, you don't need to worry. Thanks to the substantial returns from the previous investments, we have accumulated sufficient capital and can establish a financial company. Therefore, think about my proposal, Galen."

After watching the entire video, Galen hesitated for a moment and then recorded a video message for Jeremiah. (In fact, even if Galen didn't make a video for Jeremiah, Jeremiah could directly "read" his thoughts through Galen's mind. Galen did it purely to feel more like communicating with Jeremiah.)

In the video, Galen said, "Hey, brother, I really appreciate everything you've done for me. You've been trying to help me all along. I will seriously consider your idea of founding a company. But it's a big thing for me, and I need some time to think it over. Anyway, thank you very much."

Then, he quickly finished breakfast and rushed to work. On his way to the company, he was somewhat absent-minded and pondering over Jeremiah's suggestion.

Just as he was about to arrive at the company, there was suddenly a loud burst of gunfire at the other end of the street, followed by screams and shouts from the people.

He quickly turned his head and saw pedestrians panicking and fleeing while a middle-aged man with a gun was desperately chasing after them. The man was firing wildly at the crowd while shouting, "Go to hell, you Wall Street scammers! You ruined me financially. Fuck you all! I want you to be buried with me."

With the sound of gunfire, several people who were running behind were unfortunately hit by bullets and fell to the ground, blood splattering. This made the already chaotic crowd even more panicked.

Galen was relatively far away from the scene, so he didn't need to worry about being shot. However, he was still affected by the fear of the people around and instinctively ran along with them.

But as he ran just a few steps, he suddenly stopped. He had caught a glimpse of his own reflection in the glass curtain wall of a nearby office building. He walked closer to the glass and muttered to himself, "No, no, I can't just run away like this. I can do something... Jeremiah can do something... he has that capability... come on, Jeremiah, please come out, I know you can stop this tragedy!"

Jeremiah, who was inside Galen, felt his call and appeared. With a dizzying sensation, Galen's personality slipped into a dormant state, and Jeremiah's personality emerged, taking control of the body.

Jeremiah knew that Galen hoped he could do something to stop the crazy gunman, so he ran against the crowd towards the gunman's direction, calmly observing his surroundings. Soon, he had a meticulous plan in mind.

He quickly ran to a abandoned car on the street. The owner of the car had long fled, leaving the car unlocked. Then, he quickly entered the car, took out his phone, opened a distance measuring APP, and measured the distance between the gunman and the surrounding objects. After that, he switched the car to the unmanned driving mode, and entered a series of parameters on the car's control screen based on the measurements he had just taken. After entering the data, he quickly got out of the car, and the car immediately started at full power, rushing along a route he had previously set that completely avoided the crowd.

Later, the car "accurately" hit a tall street lamppost standing on the street, which broke in half and fell exactly towards the gunman's position. The gunman was caught off guard and was smashed to death by the falling lamppost.

In this way, a terrifying shooting incident was successfully ended by Jeremiah. The whole process took only tens of seconds. If it were not for Jeremiah's timely action, there would probably have been more innocent victims. After the incident, the belated police investigation team thought that the gunman's death was due to a series of accidental incidents.

After the incident was over, Jeremiah went back to sleep, and Galen regained consciousness.

Galen learned from the video message that Jeremiah had stopped the gunman from slaughtering pedestrians at his request, and thanked Jeremiah. Excitedly, he said to the phone's camera, "Brother, thank you, I'm proud of you, you're a hero. Going through this incident made me determined, I decided to accept your advice and start a company with you. I'm not sure if this will make me happier, but I really don't want your superior intelligence to be wasted on helping me deal with trivial matters. You can do more and greater things, and help more people.

I remember when I was young, I too had aspirations and entrepreneurial passion. I also yearned to create something cool like Jobs, Gates, and Musk did, and make people's lives better.

However, since Lora was born, I lost my ambition in this aspect and shifted my focus to the family. Later on, as you know, the tragedy happened, and I lost interest in everything. Also, as I grew older, I became more aware of my limitations and realized that I was just an ordinary person who couldn't achieve great things. So, to be honest, I haven't had the desire to start a business for a long time.

But now, things have changed with your appearance. So, I think it's time to make some changes. Not just for myself, but also for you and others. I'm willing to give it a try.”
