Chapter 1149: Leaving Home
Translator: Lordbluefire
Sun Mo’s brows were immediately furrowed so tightly that they could squeeze a crab to death!
As a teacher, he was most afraid of two matters. First, a student committing suicide. Second, it was students leaving homes.
Although there were cases of suicide, there wasn’t a lot. However, students leaving home were simply too common. One must know that this was an immature choice, and the consequences from this might affect one’s entire life.“I want to leave home. I want to tell my father that I’ve grown up!”
Emma had an excited look on her face.
“Are you serious?” Sun Mo counter-asked.
“Naturally!”
Emma spoke solemnly, “They have been protecting me too well to the point where I can’t even see this world clearly. Now, I want to head out myself and use my eyes to see people and things of the world!”
“You speak like a sage!” Sun Mo’s lips twitched.
“You’ve agreed?” Emma tugged on Sun Mo’s hand. “Let us leave together, alright?”“No!”
Sun Mo’s expression turned cold. “What you should do now is to go back and sleep.”
This rejection impacted Emma psychologically, causing tears to shine in her eyes, as though she had just seen a traitor. “I thought you understood me!”
“I’ll just ask you a question. How would you survive after leaving home?”
Sun Mo kneaded his glabella. “You can’t even settle the problem of your daily three meals!”
“I can work!”
Emma spoke boldly, having the courage of her own convictions.
“Don’t you have to study?” Sun Mo persuaded. “Also, working isn’t easy.”
“I’m going to leave home, so why should I still study?”
Seeing that Sun Mo still wanted to persuade her, Emma directly ran up the stairs. “You are a liar, a baddie. I won’t care about you anymore in the future!”
“Emma!”
Sun Mo was worried.
“Don’t call my name!”
Emma roared loudly.
Sun Mo felt a headache. Was this the start of the teenage rebellious phase? But very soon, he could no longer care about this matter as the butler had arrived.
“Listen quietly and go for the inspection. Do not resist or I will explode your head.”
The butler threatened.
The four security guards who came with him pointed their guns at Sun Mo.
“As long as you have not become self-aware, you can still return and be the miss’s bodyguard.”
The butler waved his hands.
A security guard in a black suit immediately walked forward and was prepared to cuff Sun Mo.
“Really?”
Sun Mo’s expression turned to one of joy. He then compiled by stretching out his hands to make it easier for the security guard to cuff him.
“Naturally!”
The butler replied decisively, but he was remarking how naive Sun Mo was in his heart.
(I was just afraid you might resist and try to flee so I was lying to you. For androids like you whom we cannot be sure whether you have self-awareness or not, the easiest way is to directly demolish you.)
However, when the guard arrived before Sun Mo, Sun Mo acted. He locked the guard’s arm, pulling the guard before him to act as a meat shield. At the same time, he pulled out the handgun in the guard’s holster.
“Open fire!”
The butler roared in a low voice.
Sun Mo also opened fire at the first instance.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After three shots, the guards all had a hole through their heads and fell onto the ground.
Upon seeing this, the butler immediately turned to flee. But before he could take two steps, his thigh got shot and he fell.
Sun Mo walked over.
“Miss, hurry up and flee!”
The butler didn’t beg for mercy. Instead, he tried to warn Emma first.
Sun Mo had planned to pull the trigger but decided to spare the butler because of this sentence.
“Troublesome!”
Sun Mo pulled his hair while feeling annoyed. There were maids and gardeners in the villa. Since they had heard the gunshots, they would surely call the police. Hence, Sun Mo’s plan of staying behind to make use of Emma couldn’t work anymore.
(Should I bring Emma away with me?)
Sun Mo pondered. After he picked up the weapons of the dead guards, he ran back upstairs.
“Emma!”
Sun Mo stretched out his fingers and rapped down.
Boom, boom, boom! He knocked on the door.
However, no one replied.
“I’m coming in!”
After Sun Mo spoke, he kicked the door open. However, there was no one in the bedroom.
The large windows were pushed open and the night breeze gusted in, causing the curtains to flutter like a flag.
Emma had left home!
Sun Mo could see that there was a wallet that exuded the aura of a young girl on the table. However, the cash there was gone. Only the bank cards remained.
Emma knew that her father could trace her through these bank cards.
Sun Mo sighed. If it wasn’t for the butler bringing guards to capture him, Emma wouldn’t have been able to flee. But it was good like this as it saved a lot of trouble.
Sun Mo pursued Emma from the tracks she left behind, but he didn’t group up with her. He chose to follow her and was preparing to wait until she had suffered a disadvantage and felt regret before he met her again.
…
The top-level officials, rich and powerful merchants, politicians, entrepreneurs, etc were considered the upper society of this country. They stayed at the highest level, enjoying the best scenery and the brightest sunlight.
The middle level was left for the middle class. They had savings and certain statuses in society. For example, the professors, doctors, scholars, etc.
On this level, as long as one was willing to work hard, they wouldn’t need to worry about food and clothing. There was also a stage for them to actualize their dreams.
Emma rode on a public transportation train and looked at the scenery on the roadside. After hesitating for a while, Emma didn’t get down from the train.
Because she felt that since she wanted to experience life, she should head to the lowest level.
However, she heard that the lowest level was the territory of criminals. All types of crimes could happen there!
It should be very dangerous, right?
(Ai, I should have brought him along with me!)
But once she thought of how Sun Mo had rejected her, Emma would be infuriated.
“I can also live alone. At most, I will simply be killed!”
Emma acted in a fit of pique. She basically didn’t know that some things were 100 times crueler even when compared to death.
“Next stop is the final stop. All passengers, please take note and get down from the right side.”
A voice suddenly echoed out in the floating train, causing Emma to feel helpless.
“Eh? The final stop? Shouldn’t it continue to head forward?”
Emma had no solution and could only follow the crowd out. After that, a wretched scene entered her vision.
This…
Emma was stunned. In the past, she and her fellow classmates had secretly come down here once due to their curiosity. However, things seemed completely different from then!
Emma didn’t know that even for the middle level, the living environment and living facilities were different.
It was like for cities in the modern era. The closer a location was to the city center, the more prosperous and developed it would be.
Emma’s current location was considered the city line, at the boundary of where the bottom level met the middle level. In the various exits, there were sentry posts with fully armed soldiers. At the same time, there were also patrol cars driving around frequently, patrolling the area.
“How should I go down?”
Emma braced herself and walked toward a sentry post to ask one of the soldiers there.
“Miss, why do you want to go down to the bottom level?”
The soldier surveyed Emma closely. “Pardon me for being straightforward, it’s very dangerous below!”
“I wish to take a look down there and experience life!”
Emma was timid and took a few steps back, wanting to leave here right away. However, the captain of the sentry post walked out. “Name, age, address!”
Emma had no choice and could only report her information.
Once he heard that Emma was a young miss from a rich and noble family that stayed on the highest level, the captain’s mind stirred and indicated for his subordinates to allow her through.
“Haha, my chance is here!”
The captain was extremely joyful.
If an ordinary person wanted to climb up in society, it was truly too difficult. This captain didn’t have any special skills. But right now, there was a gift falling from the sky for him.
As long as he secretly followed this little girl and acted like a hero to save her when she ran into danger, there was an 80% to 90% chance that her parents would reward him.
Leaving aside helping him get a promotion, even if they gave him some money, it would be enough to change his life.
“That’s all? So simple?”
After Emma walked a distance away, she turned her head back for a look while also heaving a sigh of relief. She felt that she might have made a big fuss over a minor issue.
Actually, Emma didn’t know that for people from the higher levels, if they wanted to go down to the lower levels, their records would be checked, and it was fine as long as they had never committed any crimes. But for people below wanting to go to the upper levels? Unless they had made huge contributions, they didn’t even need to dream about it.
For those who barged through forcibly or tried sneaking through, they would directly be shot to death.
The further Emma walked, the further she was from the sentry post, and the surroundings changed significantly.
Because this future city was a three-dimensional one. There were a vast number of buildings constructed on the highest and middle levels, hence, all the sunlight was blocked. This caused the lowest level to be extremely dim. Even during the day, the amount of light here was about the same as dusk.
This atmosphere, in addition to the lack of monitoring, naturally created a large amount of criminal behavior.
Emma soon discovered that people at the roadside kept staring at her, and this caused her to feel nervous as she subconsciously hastened her steps.
“A fat lamb has come!”
A few youths whistled and walked over.
They were people from the Skeleton Association.
This region was managed by the Skeleton Association. They obtained it through brute force by killing all other gangs in the area.
Extorting newbies who had just entered the subterranean world was a method for them to gain some money.
“It’s time to act!”
The ringleader lit up a cigarette and instructed. After hastening his steps, he suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder.
The ring leader turned his head and saw a young man clad in a black suit currently smiling at him.
“Brother, can I borrow a light?!” Sun Mo spoke.
“Are you freaking playing with this daddy?” The youth was badly angered. “Where’s your cigarette that you need the light for?”
This guy in black suit was clearly here to look for trouble!
“Cigarette?”
Sun Mo frowned. He directly punched the ringleader’s nose.
Bang!
He then followed up with a knee strike.
The ringleader felt so much pain as though his intestines had broken. He instinctively clutched his stomach and knelt on the ground. The cigarette that was in his mouth earlier also fell onto the ground.
Pak!
Sun Mo caught it before it touched the ground.
“Don’t I have a cigarette now?”
Sun Mo chortled and conveniently snubbed the cigarette’s burning end into his target’s forehead.
Crackle!
The skin was singed.
“Kill him!”
The few youths pulled out daggers and lunged over.
Guns?
Their statuses were too low and they couldn’t get such weapons.
Sun Mo didn’t even blink. He chopped down with his hand at the youth’s wrist. After that, he snatched the dagger and rotated his wrist, reversing its momentum and stabbing into the other party’s chest.
Swish~
Fresh blood splattered all around when Sun Mo pulled the dagger out.
His right hand exerted force and he swung the injured youth around, stopping the others by breaking their formation, using the poor youth as a bat.
A minute later, the five youths were all lying on the ground and moaning in misery.
Pak!
Sun Mo tossed the dagger away and straightened his suit while he walked away.
Very good, the blood didn’t splash on him.
“You are dead for sure for daring to provoke our Skeleton Association!”
The ringleader glared at Sun Mo. His gaze was like a wolf’s.
Sun Mo halted and turned his head.
“Ha, you are afraid now, right?”
The ringleader mocked.
“Do you know you won’t die if you don’t want to die?”
Sun Mo took out his handgun.
The ringleader who was preparing to say a few more ruthless words suddenly started. He understood that he had just created huge trouble.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Sun Mo opened fire and killed the subordinates of the ringleader.
“Please spare me, my life is even cheaper than a bullet.”
The ringleader was so afraid that he peed. He continued to beg for mercy, but his crying stopped abruptly with the sound of another gunshot.
Bang!
The soldiers could faintly hear gunshots, but they didn’t care.. After all, in this subterranean world, such a thing was very normal.
