After his friend had an accident, and even his family was implicated, Qin Feng was deeply shocked, so he made a decision - divorce.
This decision made many people curse him, saying that since he wanted to dedicate himself to his work, why did he marry in the first place? Didn’t he harm the girl?
Qin Feng wanted to say that sometimes... it takes years to find the goal worth striving for a lifetime. Sometimes, certain meanings can only be understood after establishing a family.
However, Qin Feng ultimately didn’t say anything. He himself felt that they were right, so he never talked back.
All these years, he had been living very frugally, thinking that if one day he sacrificed himself, his money could be left to his ex-wife and child.
It was a form of compensation.
At this moment, Qin Feng’s consciousness was slowly collapsing. He seemed to hear countless people’s accusations.
You selfish man. There are so many heroes in this world, why does it matter if one less? Who would need your protection? It’s just your self-satisfaction!
Not just his own child and wife, even his superiors, colleagues, and those he had criticized, were all turning against him.
If this were reality, Qin Feng would straighten his back and say he had a clear conscience because even though he no longer had a family, he had saved countless families over the years.
But this was the power of the sequence.
As his body gradually turned into a toy, his spirit was gradually destroyed, and his memory was slowly being distorted, Qin Feng was close to his breaking point.
...
The second one nearing his limits was Tang Yi.
Tang Yi’s hometown was in Jiangcheng. He was a top student and came here... just to gain some grassroots experience.
But Tang Yi was not arrogant, nor did he look down on anyone. Among the three, Tang Yi was the youngest and had the brightest future.
When he joined the Investigation Bureau in the border area, he never had any thoughts of feeling superior and frequently went on missions, doing a great job each time.
He had good relationships with every colleague in the Investigation Bureau.
Tang Yi admired Qin Feng a lot. Although Qin Feng might end up lower than him in rank in the future, Tang Yi felt Qin Feng had a very capable aura.
He was quick to act, and his mind was agile. The only reason he hadn’t risen was due to his personal reputation.
A person who sticks too rigidly to principles will find it hard to be tactful, and capable people are often used as a sword, not as a seal.
Tang Yi knew very well about Qin Feng’s strength. They truly became close friends after a case was solved, and the three of them drank their hearts out at a table, revealing their true feelings.
It was then that they found out that they were not the only ones with "superpowers."
Such gatherings were extremely unlikely. When such rare occurrences happen, those involved naturally marvel at the wonder of fate and destiny.
But at this moment, Tang Yi was also encountering the darkest moment of his life.
He remembered that when he was a child, he loved showing off his talents.
As a child, he was always "the other people’s child."
He was filled with a sense of superiority and often looked down on those with poorer grades than him.
He still remembered once visiting a distant relative’s home, where there was a little girl, seemingly named Tang Rui.
When both parents talked about their children’s grades, he severely despised that younger cousin.
As a child, Tang Yi was always arrogant due to his good looks, good family background, and intelligence.
It was only later that he slowly realized his own shallowness. People grow up gradually.
But now, trapped in his childhood arrogance and superiority, he felt a lot of resentment and anger towards him.
He wanted to explain that he wasn’t that kind of person... but the distortion of memories made him realize that he was an even worse person.
...
Old Tai’s field was slowly being disintegrated because his consciousness was also being destroyed.
In fact, he was young, eight years younger than Qin Feng, but looked old due to his features, a very rigid person. The reason Old Tai became an investigator was simple - his father hoped he would.
Old Tai’s surname was Mao, and because his father said that with this name, he would have the fate of being an official in the future.
So his real name was Mao Tai.
But he didn’t like this name, and because he looked old, everyone called him Old Tai.
When Old Tai was a child, he was often bullied, and his father’s fruit stall was constantly harassed by thugs.
This made Old Tai very eager to become an investigator in the local bureau to handle these guys.
Old Tai finally got his wish. He hated evil, and under his jurisdiction, the local security was always good.
But Old Tai had a bandit-like presence.
Having been bullied as a child, Old Tai was very tough. Facing those ruffians and hooligans, he was tougher than they were.
He knew very well that most evildoers bully the weak and fear the strong, so he had to exhibit traits of being "tough," "ferocious," and "ruthless."
As a result, Old Tai was the least "investigator-like" member of the Investigation Bureau.
Some said that if Old Tai went undercover, no one would find it incongruous.
This also led to the leaders always disliking Old Tai.
Old Tai survived by being ferocious as a child, so he relied on this logic.
He wasn’t someone easy to get close to, but he liked interacting with Qin Feng because Qin Feng was efficient and had a ruthless streak too.
Last year, Old Tai’s father passed away. Shortly after the funeral, Old Tai went to the vegetable market and encountered another case of market manipulation.
