Chapter 174: The organization's commitment to candidates

Views:

Perhaps it was the darkness that gave the examinee courage, as his voice sounded quite righteous, without any trace of timidity.

Zhu Shijiu originally wanted to stand up and suppress the troublemaker, but just as he was about to stand up, the examiner spoke.

The examiner directly reported the candidate's information: "No. 801, Zhang Longjie, is good at driving most vehicles on the market, and is also a professional racing driver."

So far so good.

But the next moment, the examiner calmly said a shocking secret.

"—Three years ago, you drove drunk and killed an old man, then fled the scene. In order to evade the police, you even moved to a different city... Haha, you are a complete scumbag."

The other candidates were also stunned. They didn't expect that there was a criminal among them.

No. 801 was shocked and his face turned pale.

"This is slander! I didn't... It's not me!"

"You can certainly refute me, but I'm not interested in arguing with you about your past. Now let's just talk about the fairness issue you mentioned."

In the dark night, in the dimly lit square, the examiner's eyes looked extremely sharp.

"What do you think is fair? All of you candidates here are far superior to ordinary people in at least one aspect. This difference is not caused by the degree of effort, but is determined by talent and genes. Do you think this is fair to ordinary people?"

"Some people are born into wealth and luxury, while others can only struggle in poverty. Do you think this is fair?"

"We humans also have different physical qualities. Just like Candidate No. 666 this morning, he used force to keep you from even farting for half a day. Do you think this is fair?"

The examiner's words made candidate No. 801 feel quite embarrassed and ashamed.

"This world is inherently unfair. I will not set the same starting line for all of you candidates, because it is impossible to achieve true fairness! Suppose you pass the test and train for several years, but in the end, in a battle, a vicious enemy kills you in one encounter. Do you still want to talk to the enemy about bullshit fairness?"

Candidate No. 801 was so angry that he said, "But, insufficient food will make it difficult for people to sustain themselves. No matter how great their abilities are, they will not be able to display them. Is this the result you want?!"

"ability?"

The examiner suddenly laughed.

Most people in the square had no idea what he was laughing at, only Zhu Shijiu seemed to be thinking about something.

The examiner did not explain his smile, but said: "I have said before that during these three days, I evaluated you comprehensively. Do you mean to say that apart from your abilities, you are nothing?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. Your score has fallen below the passing line. There is a 99% chance that you will be eliminated after three days! I advise you to give up now, otherwise all your three days of hard work will be in vain!"

Candidate No. 801 turned pale, but did not choose to leave. Instead, he pursed his lips and sat down again.

Upon seeing this, the examiner shouted to the other candidates in the square: "I hope you will think clearly about what you want!"

"Can you move forward unwaveringly towards your desired goals?"

"If you are worried that you will still be eliminated after three days, then pack up and leave now! By the way, we will not give any food to those who are eliminated after three days!"

The second obstacle after money is hunger, which means there is no hope.

As soon as these words were spoken, many candidates were shocked!

A candidate raised his hand: "If we leave now, will you give us food?"

"Yes." The examiner answered without hesitation, "I will give you enough food and arrange a boat for you to leave the island. Once you have eaten and drunk enough, you can leave at any time."

"Then I'm leaving!"

"I can't hold on any longer. I've already been hungry for two days. I definitely can't hold on for three days!"

"Me too... I was attacked by a shark at sea before. My boat was bitten. I swam the last few dozen kilometers. I am so tired. Now I can't sleep. I can't even last a day!"

Many candidates are leaving.

The examiner agreed, waved his hand, and arranged for people to take the candidates away from the square.

Unexpectedly, many candidates left, and the number dropped to 750 in an instant!

On the other hand, No. 801, who was the first person to jump out, now lay on the ground silently, saving his energy to last for three days.

At this time, Zhu Shijiu vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Park Jae-seok, the Korean player No. 876 who was eliminated earlier, is in debt of 50 million won.

Candidate No. 801 who just jumped out was the one who drove under the influence and hit and ran and killed an old man three years ago.

—Is this a coincidence

From a probability perspective, this should not be a coincidence, because the examiner has only revealed the information of two candidates so far, but both candidates have "dark histories".

In order to confirm his guess, Zhu Shijiu turned his gaze to Luo Suyi and Fu Sidu.

"What's wrong?"

Zhu Shijiu's eyes flickered: "When you signed the confidentiality agreement, what did the organization promise you?"

Luo Suyi and Fu Si were both stunned.

"No. 876 is in debt. He was probably recruited by the organization for money. No. 801 committed a crime three years ago. He may have come here to erase his criminal record."

Zhu Shijiu stared at the two of them deeply.

"What about you? Why are you here?"

The two looked at each other in silence.

Finally, Luo Suyi came to her senses: "This is not something that needs to be concealed - the organization promised to help me cure my hyperthymesia. That is, to allow me to choose to remember and forget."

This is not a dark history, but a temptation.

Fu Sidu remained silent.

Zhu Shijiu looked at him. This man had been very rational from the beginning, with very little expression, as if he didn't care about anything. Judging from his previous indifference towards the ten million, perhaps he was still a rich man.

Could it be that such a person was simply forced to come here by the Black Soldier Organization

It was not until Zhu Shijiu was about to say a few words to ease the atmosphere that Fu Sidu slowly opened his mouth.

“I have a terminal illness.”

As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhu Shijiu and Luo Suyi were speechless.

"The scientific name is amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and the common name that everyone has heard of is 'Lou Gestational Frost Disease'. This is a terminal disease that cannot be cured in society. It is a disease that causes a slow death."

"The doctor told me that the muscles in my limbs, torso, chest and abdomen would gradually weaken and atrophy over three to four years, eventually leading to complete paralysis until I died of respiratory failure."

Fu Sidu's expression was extremely calm, as if he was talking about someone else.

However, Zhu Shijiu looked at his trembling fingers and realized that his heart was not at peace.

"Unfortunately, this disease cannot be cured even with money. But when the organization sent someone to ask me to sign a confidentiality agreement to participate in the test, they promised me that they would cure my disease."

"I couldn't even confirm whether what they said was true or not, but my only choice was to believe them."

Zhu Shijiu was very embarrassed because this was equivalent to him directly exposing someone else's scar.

Luo Suyi "just" has hyperthymesia, but Fu Sidu has revealed his biggest private secret.

Fu Sidu didn't seem to want to go into this topic any further. He looked at Zhu Shijiu and said, "What about you? What were you promised?"

Zhu Shijiu was in a daze for a moment, and then muttered to himself uncertainly.

"… world peace?"

"… "
