The Devil Doctor's Spicy Love-Chapter 430: Where you truly belong (4)

"What...?" Mulan was thoroughly confused.

"I see," Beiye said, "After sending so many young minds to insanity, Mam wouldn’t remember my brother anymore. You wouldn’t know a single person who has played your game and slipped into the darkness."

Beiye played another video of another similar young man hospitalized in a room, looking blankly at the ceiling. Then there was another video of a young teen girl. The videos kept coming that left Mulan only more and more perplexed.

"Beiye, stop it-"

"Do you know what is common among all these young, bright people who are now laying on a hospital bed, barely able to recognize their families?" Beiye looked up at her, her gaze slowly seething with an untold fury. "They all played your game."

She froze.

"They all began to turn aggressive. They developed a gaming addiction that sucked out their peace of mind and what did they get in return? My brother Bao...He used to be a top student until your so-called harmless game affected his brain. He dropped out, stopped eating, stopped going out. He kept saying he could ’hear the game singing to him.’"

"That’s not the game’s fault! Beiye, what the hell has happened to you? You are suddenly talking against me like this...Don’t tell me that...you joined hands with this man behind my back!"

No, no, no! What the hell happened to Beiye! Fuck, don’t tell me Shi Ningkai planned all this!

But why? Why would he rebel against me like this when we didn’t even have any fight!

Mingshen, who had been studying Yang Cheng for a while now, tore his gaze away from him and looked at her. Whatever had gone between him and Xie Zi Han, the history, the past - he knew that had to wait. Now was the time to put an end to the three legacies that had left countless lives in misery - Hou Huan, Shi Ningkai and Xie Mulan. The triad of villains who had trampled upon many innocent lives.

"Nobody joined hands with anyone, Miss. Xie."

Jia stepped forward facing her. "These are all the consequences of your own actions which you are facing right now."

"Excuse me?" Her eyes narrowed. "Miss. Song, there is a misunderstanding here like I have been trying to tell over and over again."

"I am sure Miss. Li has a different story to tell."

Beiye opened the executable file that loaded the Survival Games. Her character in the game was already at a level which slowly drained Mulan’s expression. It was a hidden level that was only unlocked at a much higher stage and it was one of the pieces of code that she was hiding from the world.

"Doesn’t this level remind you of something, Mam?"

The level showed the game characters in a dark room, lit up by an eerie source of light. A masked man stood at the stage, addressing a group of people, who also wore masks. When Beiye hit the audio button, the man’s voice echoed from the video.

’We must be the ones to guide them back to their rightful place, to lead them with firm but gentle hands. In this way, we bring peace to our homes, strength to our communities, and order to the world. It is our duty to ensure that women remain within the bounds of their true nature where they can flourish as they were meant to.’

Beiye played more such clips of the masked leader’s brainwashing.

She smiled. "This whole setup oddly feels very familiar to the gathering I had attended at the charity banquet. I am sure Inspector Song and Dr. Yang would say the same, as would Yong, who was...Shi Ningkai’s assistant. The game brainwashes young minds against women."

Yong added with a sense. "Which is exactly what this man does here too."

"And then you say you have nothing to do with Shi Ningkai?" Beiye slowly closed her laptop and narrowed her eyes. "It won’t work, ’Mam’ because I have been a witness to your meeting with him. Surely, I didn’t see his face, but his assistant, who I am sure was pretty much Yong, would happily point out the man’s identity."

Before Mulan could protest, Beiye played another video that showed her in the spotlight as she sat across a man in the dark.

’Like always, you came here with a begging bowl. Though I’m hesitating to tear a check for you this time. You promised your game would spread the word of my esteemed gathering but I don’t see an increase in my followers.’

’Trust me, they are. It’s the level of She where players get the most excited. I should thank you instead. Your twisted beliefs are causing some good traction for my game.’

’You dare comment about my twisted beliefs? Your poor customers don’t even know their mental juices are being sucked from playing your deadly game.’

’Who then gets brainwashed into following your deadly gathering all thanks to me. How many parents have ruined their innocent daughter’s lives by falling for your ploy?’

’Enlightenment.’

’Oops sorry~ Enlightenment.’

’Your money shall wait.’

’Why?’

’I’m yet to be paid for my services so I’m in a sort of crunch myself.’

’Why not?’

’Ask the wretched Huo family yourself ’

At that point, Hou Huan held her breath, frozen like a block of ice.

’Such a rich family will delay your payment?’

’Apparently, their son is getting engaged to that actress...what was her name? Anyway, who cares about that? They are completely focusing their energy on that. Yet I’m expected to continue with their youngest son’s treatment.’

’That youngest son, Hou Jielun, is another pain in the ass! It was easier in Long Sicong’s era to get him women. But ever since the new leader came in, it’s been nothing but a struggle.’

’Why are you spending your energy to get him bedmates anyway? You are his doctor, not some dealer.’

’It’s part of his treatment. If he doesn’t get women, he gets crazy. Drugs help but not for too long.’

’Which kind of treatment needs whores?’

’A man who has trouble getting it up. He’s a complete mental case.’

’There’s no treatment for erectile dysfunction?nAnd women are the solution?’

"What else to do? He has a lot of pent up stress and the need to do sex. He has become a sex addict. But he is unable to get an erection so that doubles down on his stress. He feels he needs to prove that he can perform. His ego and desires are wrecking his mind. So I’m just doing some nominal treatments to keep him sane. The other thing that keeps him sane are women. He will go crazy if he doesn’t get them.’

’Alas, lately he doesn’t feel satisfied with the kind of women I bring him. He says he loved Huayuan women more. They had a spark to them. Especially that one woman he didn’t get to have sex with all those years ago.’

’Huh. What kind of a woman was she?’

’I don’t know. He just keeps muttering ’Nuwa, Nuwa.’

’So bring her to him. Wouldn’t he be in heaven and you will get a hefty chunk of payment, which you can then use to finance me?’

Beiye ended the meeting’s recording and looked up at her with a smile. "Do you still have anything else to say, Miss. Xie?"
