Chapter 52: Chapter 52: Look Forward

Four o’clock in the morning.

The night was as deep as water, the world completely silent.

With the life purification characteristic of the Unyielding Undead Superpower, Su Xin’s physical and mental state was almost always at peak condition, unable to fall asleep even if he wanted to.

There’s nothing much left to investigate for now.

The revenge doesn’t yet have a clear target either.

He has no mood for chivalry to earn causality points.

In the end, with nothing else to do, he had to stick to his usual habit of writing, as writing web novels was one of his most suitable legal ways to earn money at the moment, which he couldn’t give up for now.

After all, donating to terminally ill patients is the most direct and convenient way to earn causality points.

And these require a large amount of money.

Su Xin plans to donate over ninety percent of his parents’ inheritance, plus the money he earns from writing web novels during his spare time, to continuously donate and earn causality points, thereby upgrading his superpowers.

After everything that happened before, he understood that his greatest reliance was the system, or rather, the various superpowers awakened through the system.

Whether he wants to avenge his parents, investigate the mastermind behind the scenes, eliminate the entire Nirvana Association, or do anything else in the future, these superpowers are his most important ace and means.

Therefore.

No matter his mood, the pace of earning causality points must not stop.

...

Morning.

The alarm rang on time at seven o’clock.

Following his usual routine, Su Xin changed clothes and got on the treadmill.

After half an hour of running, Su Xin, drenched in sweat, lay in the bathtub.

It happened to be the time of death.

Su Xin closed his eyes, opened them again, and his physical fitness was restored to its peak state, feeling completely refreshed.

"If I had crossed into a fantasy or martial arts world instead of the current one, I could indulge in crazed training with this characteristic, ignoring side effects to learn various explosive techniques."

Su Xin mused, suddenly bursting into laughter.

After dressing and freshening up, he packed his ID card and some documents into his backpack and left the house.

An hour later.

In a law firm, Su Xin met his parents’ personal lawyer, Lin Dong.

"Mr. Su, I’m sorry to hear this unfortunate news, I hope you can take it easy."

Su Xin nodded calmly:

"Don’t worry, Lawyer Lin, I’m very calm. I came today to handle the inheritance procedures, and I’ll have to trouble you with it."

Lawyer Lin glanced at Su Xin in surprise.

He was fairly familiar with Su Xin’s family situation, knowing they were foreign immigrants without relatives in Wanghai Country. Now that Su Xin’s parents were both deceased, only he remained, just a teenager in high school, yet behaving so calmly.

Either he was extremely cold-hearted.

Or he had a strong and resilient character.

But surprise was just surprise; Lawyer Lin didn’t intend to delve into it, and nodded blandly:

"Alright, I’ll assist you in handling the inheritance procedures. Your parents’ bank accounts, real estate, stocks, and funds will be transferred to you in stages according to the process."

"In addition, your parents had purchased substantial insurance benefits while alive, and I will also assist you with the claims."

"Finally, I have coincidentally heard about the case that involved your parents. They are considered work-related deaths, and I will assist you in seeking reasonable compensation and benefits from Kangbo Biological Company."

"Of course, I will also need to collect five percent of the total inheritance amount as a lawyer’s fee."

Su Xin frowned.

Though he wasn’t too concerned about money and didn’t want to be overly calculative about his parents’ inheritance, he didn’t want to be taken for a fool either.

"Lawyer Lin, my parents’ assets are at least in the millions, and if insurance payouts and compensation from the company are included, the total amount should exceed ten million. You want to charge hundreds of thousands in service fees?"

"Are you bullying me because I’m young and easy to fool?"

Su Xin stared coldly at Lawyer Lin.

Having killed several people the night before, Su Xin now had a sharper aura; his furrowed brows and angry gaze carried an obvious sense of menace.

This look made Lawyer Lin instinctively tremble inside, instantly realizing that Su Xin was not to be trifled with.

Lawyer Lin hurriedly said:

"Mr. Su, don’t be hasty. I haven’t finished speaking. What I just mentioned was the usual fee standard, and due to the substantial amount of your parents’ inheritance, the fee ratio would generally be lower."

"Moreover, I was friends with Mr. Su Jiwei. Whether it’s due to past friendship or to mourn a friend’s passing, I will moderately lower the fee standard--"

"Three percent." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"That’s my lowest fee standard."

Su Xin looked at him coldly: "One percent, take it or leave it. Otherwise, I’ll find another law firm."

Lawyer Lin smiled wryly: "Mr. Su, one percent is too little; there has never been a precedent that low in the industry. Inheritance isn’t as simple as Mr. Su might think, especially involving such a large amount of property. Even if you’re the sole inheritor, the procedures and processes take quite a bit of work, and we have to negotiate with Kangbo Biological Company for compensation, trying to help you secure the most."

Su Xin looked at him indifferently:

"I know these procedures are a bit troublesome, which is why I’m reluctant to handle them myself, but I’m also unwilling to spend hundreds of thousands just to avoid these troubles. Let me state my bottom line, at most one and a half percent. If you’re not willing, then there is no need for further discussion."

"I believe there are plenty who would be willing to take this business, and worst-case scenario, I’ll handle it myself for a few days, saving tens of thousands, which is very worthwhile to me."

After a moment of thought, Lawyer Lin revealed a bitter smile, stood up, and extended his right hand:

"Mr. Su, despite being so young, your mentality and determination are stronger than many big bosses’. Truly, like a lion who breeds no timid cubs. I must concede; as you said, one and a half percent it is, deal!"

Su Xin stood up and shook his hand:

"I’ll leave it to you then."

After which, the two signed the commission contract, and Su Xin took his leave from the law firm.

Standing by the roadside, gazing at the bright and clear sky, amidst the bustling cityscape, the dark clouds in Su Xin’s heart were finally dispelled somewhat, and his mood was no longer as low as before.

He has always been open-minded, now that his parents’ death is an established fact, he only needs to give his all to avenge them, no need to constantly wallow in negative emotions, even less so neglect his life.

"Always look forward."

Su Xin took a deep breath and forced a brilliant smile onto his face.

Then, he took out his phone.

His homeroom teacher, Teacher Zhou, had already called him over a dozen times, but since he had been discussing with Lawyer Lin, his phone was on silent, and he hadn’t answered.

Su Xin dialed back, speaking calmly:

"Teacher Zhou, something has come up at home recently, so I won’t be attending school these days. I will take the exam next month on time."
