Chapter Seventy-Two: Feeling Powerless

It sounds arrogant, but after experiencing many Kappas, Linn knows that this is absolutely true.

In front of the various families, dignitaries, and plutocrats with powerful eyes and hands, they are just tiny ants.

How do ants shake mountains?

"I understand..." Lin En responded.

"To tell you the truth, I have always felt a sense of powerlessness. This feeling of powerlessness has become stronger as I learn more and investigate deeper..." Capa lay on the bed, depressed and lonely.

"Understood, you want to change everything, but you find that there are countless ugliness and depravity. The saddest thing is that you can't save even one." Lin En also came from ordinary people, and he doesn't have it now.

How extraordinary, he felt the same way as Capa.

Capa hesitated for a moment and revealed what he was most worried about: "You said, what if even the people in the imperial capital are like this and they don't care but let it go?"

Lynn leaned forward and patted Capa's heart with the back of his hand: "If the whole world falls and no one can help you, will you recognize the reality and let it go, or will you fight them to the end?"

A brief moment of silence.

Capa's corruption level did not increase due to Linn's words, but instead dropped a little.

[Depravity value-110]

"...I don't accept it." Capa finally said, "Why does their fall mean that the world should also fall? Why can they use their power to oppress ordinary people and deprive them of their freedom and dignity? This is not mine.

The world is not their world, it is everyone’s world. It shouldn’t be like this, it shouldn’t be like this..."

I'm not convinced.

These three words were also spoken by Matt, who had no way to seek help when his wages were owed.

At this moment, in Lin En's eyes, two figures with negative corruption values ​​overlapped.

They are such a small group of people who are regarded as stupid by others, but are truly sober.

They are tiny fireflies in the darkness, and their end seems to have been predestined, that is, to be swallowed by the darkness.

"Then find a way to become stronger." Lin En said.

"powerful……"

"Rely on our own strength to change and eliminate corruption." Lin En is doing this, "I believe you have seen through it. Only the weak will pray for help from others and place all their hopes on others.

.Placing your hopes on others will always lead to unsatisfactory results. So we cannot do that, we cannot fall into passivity, and we cannot be led by this world."

Linn's words gave Capa a small shock.

Change it yourself?

The reason is very reasonable, but how can a powerless person fight with the powerful?

"But how to do it specifically?" Capa was very confused, "To be stronger than those powerful people, it's easier said than done..."

"This takes time. Take your time. In short, you must be prepared that others can't help and you have to make changes yourself." Lin En couldn't reveal too much to Capa yet, and she couldn't give him a plan casually.

Come up with a feasible route, "Okay, that's it for today. You can relax and rest. I'll come over and tell you when there are new situations outside."

"...Okay." Capa pondered Linn's words.

"Also, please help me tell my brother to relax and be smarter." When he walked to the door, Linn thought of Matt's stubborn character and gave him another instruction.

Capa also remembered something: "Okay... By the way, this is for you."

"What do you mean?" Linn saw Capa take out a hundred gold note and didn't understand his purpose.

"You have saved me three times since you helped me leave the apartment. I have nothing to repay you. You took this money out of the warehouse and gave it to me. Now I will shamelessly use it to express my gratitude. The rest is

I want to keep the hundred gold that I have paid as travel expenses to go to the imperial capital and continue to fight for a proper resolution of this matter." Capa said a little embarrassedly.

"No need, you can keep it. I do this because I admire you, and you using money to express your gratitude will only make me feel insulted." Lin En smiled and shook his head.

"I, I didn't mean that."

"I'm kidding, okay, I'm leaving." Linn said no more, locked the door, walked to the window of the neighbor's drunkard's house, and took a look inside.

The drunkard lay on the bed and fell asleep.

No problem.

Relieved, he saw that it was still early before noon, so he decided to take a public carriage back to the wealthy area. First, he tried to find Joe Dun, who was now highly praised in the upper class, and judged whether he had changed his mind through his depravity value.

If Qiao Dun really becomes a good person, he doesn't need to take revenge.

Who said it is easy to kill someone in this world, but difficult to be a good person?

It's a pity that people from the upper class like Jordon can't be met just because they want to. Linn went to three places where Jordon might appear according to the information provided by Capa, but never saw him.

In the end, I had to give up for the time being and returned to the apartment in time for lunch. After lunch, I spent an afternoon and an evening writing the eighth and ninth stories of "The Sherlock Holmes".

"Dong——dong——"

The clock hanging in the corridor chimed.

Twelve o'clock has arrived, and the time has come to January 3rd.

There are only about three days left before the start of the new mission and the full calculation is completed.

Lin En, who was relaxing her fingers after writing the manuscript, leaned back in her chair and couldn't help but sigh that this frequency was too high.

He is still sure to complete five tasks and ten tasks.

But at this frequency, with nearly a hundred tasks a year, no one is confident that they can successfully pass it.

When exactly does it end?

Is it really necessary to continue like this until death in a certain mission?

Lin En still feels that he is not strong enough and does not feel safe enough. He should try to trigger a more difficult task in the next task.

Be strong enough as soon as possible to not be afraid of any task, strong enough to clear away the fog and clearly see the purpose of the mysterious power in doing this.

"Dong dong dong."

Just when Linn finished washing and was getting ready to go to bed, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

He stepped forward to open the door and invited Arthur in who was visiting in the early morning: "What happened?"

"Something really happened." Arthur watched Linn close the door, but still worried about the ears on the partition wall, and whispered, "The Public Security Bureau caught two women who escaped from the warehouse."

"So fast?" Linn was quite surprised by the speed of the Sheriff's Department.

"Everyone in the Public Security Bureau is busy with this matter now, can you please hurry up?" Arthur sat on the sofa by himself, "You rescued these people, will they turn you in?"

"No, I deliberately smeared my face with black ash so that no one could see my face clearly, and I never revealed my name in front of them. The most they can give is Capa, the person who confirmed his identity." Lin En felt heavy.

He was not worried about himself, he had careful consideration and followed the methods of the Public Security Bureau to find out how difficult it was for him to ascend to heaven.
