The gun in Zhao Yuan's hand trembled, its muzzle aimed directly at Li Yan and Gao Chen.
The madness in her eyes resembled a cornered beast.
Screams erupted throughout the restaurant, as people rushed out in panic.
The sound of shattering glass and clattering dishes created chaos that felt like the end of the world.
I watched it all unfold, finally pulling out the Chinese cigarette from my mouth.
I raised it high, as if wielding an invisible knife.
"Li Yan, Gao Chen, Zhao Yuan, Du Rong!"
My voice cut through the noise, filled with a near-manic determination.
"We're going to play a game of ultimate stakes!"
At my words, everyone froze, including Zhao Yuan.
The barrel of her gun dipped slightly.
"The wager is all the secrets you've been hiding!"
My gaze swept over each of them, like a knife pinning them in place.
Li Yan's body jolted, cold sweat trickling down his cheek.
Gao Chen's face turned as pale as paper, his eyes fixed on the cigarette in my hand.
Du Rong huddled in the corner, trembling like a frightened rabbit.
"Wang Zheng, what do you want?"
Li Yan's voice was hoarse, tinged with a hint of desperate anger.
He tried to struggle, but found that he couldn't muster any strength in his body.
"What do I want?"
I scoffed and took a step forward.
"I want you all to expose everything that should remain in the dark to the light of day!"
My voice struck like a hammer, each word pounding against their hearts.
"Li Yan, don't you enjoy wielding your power to control the dark dealings?"
"Gao Chen, don't you relish manipulating others while pretending to be a good person?"
"Zhao Yuan, don't you thrive on colluding with shady forces for profit?"
With each statement I made, their faces turned paler.
My gaze was filled with a bloodthirsty excitement.
"Now, hand over all your secrets!"
Li Yan's breathing quickened as he suddenly raised his hand to point at me.
"You must be dreaming!"
He wanted to hold on to his last shred of dignity.
But my gaze seemed to pierce through the deepest fears within him.
"Dreaming?"
I laughed, my voice laced with a hint of mockery.
"You think those fingerprints on the cigarette butts and those recordings are just edited and fabricated?"
I gently twirled the Chinese cigarette between my fingers.
"You think I didn't leave myself an escape route?"
Li Yan's pupils suddenly constricted as he stared at me intently.
His facade finally crumbled completely at that moment.
"Wang Zheng, you... you won't have a good end!"
He let out a desperate scream, his voice filled with resentment.
Gao Chen's body trembled even more violently; he wanted to argue but found his throat constricted as if someone was choking him.
He tried to move, only to discover that his legs felt as heavy as lead.
At that moment, Zhao Yuan suddenly let out a sharp cry.
It was as if she were being controlled by some invisible force, rushing forward abruptly.
Her lighter trembled in her hand, nearly extinguishing.
Gao Chen's body suddenly stiffened, and he instinctively glanced at Zhao Yuan.
Li Yan's face drained of color, his gaze fixed on the photograph with unwavering intensity.
His lips quivered uncontrollably.
"Wang Zheng, who... who are you really?"
He voiced a question that seemed to come from the depths of his soul.
A smirk curled at the corners of my mouth.
"Who am I?"
"I am the one who will send all of you to hell!"
At that moment, a siren blared urgently, growing louder as it approached.
The sound of the police car pierced through the clamor of the restaurant, like the horn of death.
Outside, flashing police lights illuminated the terrified faces of everyone inside.
Li Yan's body suddenly went limp, and he slumped into his chair, his expression vacant.
Gao Chen's face was left with nothing but a gray despair.
He clutched his pocket tightly, trying to pull out his phone.
But the tape was like an invisible shackle, binding him tightly.
Du Rong let out a desperate cry, covering her face, her body trembling like a fallen leaf.
Zhao Yuan's gaze was left with nothing but endless emptiness.
Her lighter fell to the ground, the flame extinguishing in an instant.
The door of the restaurant was suddenly pushed open.
Several uniformed police officers rushed in.
The guns in their hands glinted coldly under the lights.
My eyes fell on the lighter that Zhao Yuan had dropped.
The pack of Zhonghua cigarettes lay quietly in the corner.
Its surface had already gathered dust.
Yet it was like an invisible key, unlocking all of Pandora's boxes.
The truth would ultimately be revealed to the world.
However, the price would be the downfall of everyone.
