"Would you like a drink?" Young Master Lin said, shaking a bottle filled with an unknown liquid. Juan Juan and Mary stared intently at the two of them, not even hearing what Young Master Lin had said. At that moment, I couldn't show any weakness, so I forced a calm smile and replied, "Just a little will do; I'm not fond of this flavor."
As we spoke, the competition had already begun. Suddenly, the Slavic man let out a roar and charged forward like a bear, shaking the ground beneath him. He spread his arms wide, resembling a titan. If he collided with someone, they would likely be crushed.
Yan Junde stood firm, seemingly ready to take the hit head-on, making us break into a cold sweat. Just as the Slavic man was about to engulf Yan Junde in his iron grip, Yan Junde suddenly leaned to the side. In an instant, he executed a sweeping kick aimed at the Slavic man's knee. The Slavic man couldn't dodge in time and was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
We watched in astonishment as Mary exclaimed, "This is just like bullfighting!"
But the Slavic man was undeterred; he shouted angrily and got back on his feet. This time, instead of charging, he approached Yan Junde step by step, seemingly opting for a more measured approach to victory. The Slavic man threw punches that stirred up gusts of wind around him. Yan Junde dodged to the left and landed a punch on the Slavic man's face, but it was as if the Slavic man had rooted himself to the ground; he didn't budge an inch.
The failed strike left Yan Junde vulnerable, and the Slavic man seized the opportunity to retaliate. Yan Junde could only block with his arm, and we watched as he was pushed back three or four meters by the force of the blow, leaving deep grooves in the dirt beneath him.
"His arm is dislocated!" Juan Juan exclaimed as she noticed something was wrong with Yan Junde's arm.
We looked over and saw that indeed, Yan Junde's left arm hung limply from his shoulder. The Slavic man noticed this too and charged forward to capitalize on his advantage. Within moments, he was right next to Yan Junde, throwing punches while Yan Junde could only retreat defensively. They continued this way until the Slavic man cornered Yan Junde against a wall with nowhere left to escape. We all felt anxious for him.
The Slavic man wore a smug grin as if to say that Yan Junde had nowhere left to hide. Suddenly, he swung both arms toward Yan Junde.
"Yan Junde!" Mary couldn't help but shout.
At that moment, Yan Junde used his shoulder's momentum to swing his dislocated arm back into place just as the Slavic man's punch connected with it! Immediately after, Yan Junde leaped up and delivered a powerful kick right to the Slavic man's chest, propelling himself against the wall behind him.
The Slavic man's fist smashed into the wall instead, creating a dent while Yan Junde landed gracefully on his feet. Before the Slavic man could react, Yan Junde had already stepped onto his head. Then he executed a swift somersault and kicked hard at the Slavic man's neck.
Soon after, we saw the Slavic man collapse onto the ground.
Young Master Lin jumped up suddenly, spilling some of the liquid from his bottle. The surrounding mercenaries quickly reloaded their weapons. "Don't worry," Yan Junde said in English. "He's not dead; he's just unconscious."
We couldn't help but applaud; this series of movements flowed seamlessly and left us breathless. Especially that last sequence—everyone present was caught off guard. In the blink of an eye, the Slavic man lay sprawled on the ground. Nearby mercenaries hurriedly lifted him away, and after a while, he slowly began to regain consciousness.
I looked at Young Master Lin and calmly said, "Now we can talk, right?"
Young Master Lin nodded and gestured for us to follow him into the villa for a more detailed discussion. As we walked inside, the villa was adorned with intricate carvings and had an impressive grandeur. Once inside, it was even more lavish, showcasing a style that screamed, "I am wealthy."
As we walked, Young Master Lin spoke to us, "Since you are here, it means that matter has already been exposed. That kid Hao Zhi is really incompetent; with his level of intelligence, he thinks he can do business with me?" I couldn't help but wonder how Hao Zhi, still in detention, would feel upon hearing this. It seemed his hopes of earning two hundred million were about to be dashed.
"Well then, let's hear it," I said, taking a seat on one of the sofas without hesitation.
"First of all, I must clarify that I do consume human flesh, but the flesh I eat comes from abroad," Young Master Lin stated. "So, I am not breaking any laws. This is also the reason why I am willing to sit down and discuss matters with you. First, I want to ask you a question: you should know about the dark web, right?"
Mary nodded and replied, "The dark web, as the name suggests, is a network hidden in the shadows. It cannot be accessed through standard links; it requires dynamic web technology to reach its resources. We cannot find it through various search engines online because those crawlers cannot retrieve its information. Currently, major websites like Google aim to integrate these hidden networks."
We were left bewildered as Mary continued, "To put it simply, we can compare the internet to an iceberg. The saying goes that we only see the tip of the iceberg; what we can see on the surface web is merely that tip. The dark web lies beneath the surface—vast and unfathomable—occupying ninety-nine percent of the content."
Young Master Lin nodded and then asked with curiosity, "In that case, you must know about SHADOWWEB?"
Mary furrowed her brow and responded, "Due to the dark web's obscurity, many illegal sites are hidden within it. The darkest things you can imagine in this world can be found on the dark web: drug trafficking, child pornography, arms dealing, and even live-streamed murders! The shadow network is one such example."
"Sometimes, some unsuspecting individuals may inadvertently enter the dark web or shadow network," Mary explained. "According to someone who accidentally stumbled into the dark web, they entered a chatroom-like space where viewers paid in Bitcoin. When enough money was gathered, a live murder scene appeared on screen; those who paid the most could choose how the murder was carried out..."
"All darkness in this world can be found here," Young Master Lin seemed to appreciate this statement as he slowly said. "Moreover, when it comes to cannibalism? I've entered the dark web before; of course, I can tell you how to access it. However, each time the method changes quickly; I have no way to keep up."
Mary nodded and added, "That's right; once a method is mastered, user access paths are random and unordered each time they enter. If I knew about a relay point, perhaps I could access this site for a while but not for long."
Young Master Lin provided Mary with a program. She installed it on her computer and used this software to access the dark web. After a series of operations, she finally entered a site mistakenly labeled as SK. What we saw there seemed to be dedicated to offering human flesh and murder services.
We looked on as young men and women—even children—were locked in small cages. The photos were clear enough that we could see confusion in their eyes. Born equal as humans, perhaps they wondered why they were the ones trapped in cages instead of others.
Inside, individuals were clearly priced like meat waiting in a freezer for sale. Men were priced lowest; women followed next in cost. Among them, girls and infants commanded the highest prices. People of various races and nationalities were represented within those cages.
A strong wave of anger and a sense of helplessness surged within me. What is the bottom line of internet freedom? After seeing this, it was hard not to feel resentment. Just the four of us could hardly make a difference. Moreover, what we saw was just one website; there were countless more hidden deep within that we couldn't even glimpse.
Sometimes I felt furious, but at other times, I felt grateful. The world is filled with darkness, yet it is also filled with people who continuously strive to eliminate that darkness.
Mary said with a somber expression, "The dark web has a strong untraceability, so we can't possibly find the location."
"Who was that girl who once slept on Huang Yajie?" I asked, somewhat angrily. "What was her relationship with you?"
Young Master Lin replied, "There are some things I don't know if you can understand. I told you before that the reason I'm here discussing these matters with you is that I haven't broken any laws. If you know about the beauty of the world, then you should also be aware of a corresponding term."
Mary pondered for a moment and then said, "Are you referring to Meat Livestock?"
Young Master Lin nodded and continued, "Some people like to eat humans, and similarly, some wish to be eaten. The world is vast and full of wonders. You've traced the clues all the way here, and I've been prepared for this. Let's put it this way: I didn't know her before; we met on the dark web. You should know that very few people from Our Country can access the dark web—almost none."
"So I know she must also be an Overseas Chinese," Young Master Lin said. "It's like meeting a fellow countryman, especially in the unfathomable dark web. Until one day, she told me she wanted to be eaten. But before being eaten, she wanted to experience different lives."
Young Master Lin continued, "It was at that time she encountered Huang Yajie. Strange, isn't it? Some people are wealthy beyond measure yet want to experience life as an ordinary college student. Some could enjoy their lives but instead wish to be eaten."
