God's imitator

Chapter 175 Raid
As you walk through the dimly lit corridor, the light seems to dim even further.

The amount of clutter in the corridor also increased, forcing He Xiaojun to step over some obstacles or move them by hand.

Arriving at the next trial site, it appeared somewhat narrower than the previous scene, but since there was only one person being tried and not as many traps, it actually seemed more spacious.

Seeing the person locked in the iron chair, He Xiaojun's heart skipped a beat again.

This is Mr. Bai, the boss of the company he used to work for.

However, unlike the previous four people, President Bai was already conscious, and did not wake up after He Xiaojun entered the trial venue.

Moreover, He Xiaojun noticed that President Bai seemed to be injured, with bright red blood dripping down his left trouser leg and onto the ground.

There was also a wound on his right rib, and the oozing blood stained his white shirt.

"Xiao He? What happened to you..."

Mr. Bai subconsciously wanted to speak to He Xiaojun, but before he could finish speaking, the image reappeared on the CRT television.

Unfortunately, you chose the wrong punishment for your four colleagues.

You carefully considered the consequences of different options and chose the more certain one.

But when they made their choice, did they consider the potential consequences for you?

You believe their punishment should match their crimes, but did they consider this when they punished you?

Regardless, what's past is past. You have three more chances.

After you were falsely accused and forced to record an apology video, your boss should have withstood the pressure and cleared your name. However, fearing damage to the company's reputation, he ultimately chose to fire you to settle the matter.

This not only means that the accuser has won again, but also, to some extent, confirms your "criminal evidence."

When the accuser posted your apology video and your company's dismissal decision online, this overwhelming evidence fueled public outrage and subjected you to prolonged cyberbullying.

On the judge's bench, there are still two different buttons, each representing a different punishment.

Pressing the red button will cause the mechanism to tear his two wounds to three times their original size.

Press the blue button, and his left big toe will be crushed by the mechanism.

Now, please complete your second trial and choose the "more appropriate" verdict for him.

These two punishments caused He Xiaojun to hesitate once again.

If the previous two punishments were somewhat traceable, matching "unknown punishment" with "unknown consequences," then the two punishments this time seem to lack any particularly clear meaning.

Moreover, the overall situation has become much more brutal.

Mr. Bai already has injuries. If both wounds are torn to three times their original size, the rate of blood loss will inevitably increase significantly.

If they are not able to return to the community quickly for treatment, they could very likely bleed to death.

Crushing the bone in the left big toe is equally cruel, because with the current medical conditions in the community, it is very difficult to fully cure.

Even if he recovers, he will most likely be able to walk with a limp afterward.

Unlike his former colleagues who cried and begged hysterically, President Bai seemed to have accepted his fate to some extent, his eyes filled with regret.

"It's okay, make the choice according to your heart. To me, the two punishments are about the same."

"Whether we die from blood loss, from excruciating pain, or become disabled and live with a limp forever, this is the fate we sinners are destined to accept in this game of judgment. Xiao He, I'm sorry."

"You know, negative public opinion like this can be devastating for a company. If we're labeled as 'protecting molesters,' our clients and partners will immediately distance themselves from us."

“I know you’ve been wronged, but there’s nothing I can do. In this matter, there’s not necessarily more I can do than you can.”

"Of course, it's pointless to say all this now. In any case, I am one of the perpetrators against you."

"You choose. No matter what you choose, I will have atoned for my sins."

He Xiaojun's expression darkened: "President Bai..."

“I know you have been kind to me.”

“I had been unemployed for three months at the time and couldn’t find any job. Logically speaking, my resume didn’t match the position, but you gave me a chance to try.”

"Later, you also publicly praised me several times in front of your colleagues, and I remember all of that."

“After this happened, I also hated you, but seeing so many people attacking the company online, I knew that if you chose to stand up for me, those attacks would likely increase tenfold or a hundredfold.”

"I'll press the blue button. After all, that button gives you a better chance of survival."

Mr. Bai was taken aback for a moment: "But you yourself..."

He Xiaojun sighed: "This is only the second trial; there are two more trials to go."

"I can roughly guess who the next two people to be tried are."

"The four trials were arranged in order of severity of the crimes, from the least to the most serious. The guilty party should be held accountable and the main culprit should pay the heaviest price."

After saying that, He Xiaojun pressed the blue button.

With a "click," the mechanism at Bai Zong's left foot clamped shut instantly!
“Ahhhhh——!!”

A crisp sound of bones breaking rang out, and Boss Bai screamed in agony, his whole body trembling violently, but the mechanism on the iron chair still held him firmly in place.

Fortunately, the whole process didn't take long. Soon, the mechanism that crushed his thumb was released, and a series of "click" sounds rang out as all the mechanisms on the iron chair were unlocked.

Mr. Bai was curled up on the ground, clutching his left foot in pain, and wailing incessantly.

Behind the iron chair, the mechanism holding the antidote injection made a sound again, the gears turned, and the antidote slowly rose.

However, just as He Xiaojun was about to take it, the antidote shattered again with a "crack".

This time, He Xiaojun wasn't as disappointed as before; he had a vague idea that this might happen.

There are still two trials left, and he has a pretty good idea of ​​who will be on trial.

"There can be no more compassion in the next two trials."

He Xiaojun prepared to leave.

However, at that moment, he suddenly felt a force coming from his back, and an arm wrapped around his neck, dragging him to the ground!
Then, the arm tightened its grip, making it hard for him to breathe!
He Xiaojun patted Bai Zong's arm, trying to bite him, but with his arm firmly locked around Bai Zong's chin, he couldn't bite at all.

"what happened……"

This situation was completely beyond He Xiaojun's expectations.
