The Only Normal Human In The Universe

After these people came out, they stopped for a while and soon followed the direction An Yan had left.

Cheng Yi sensed that something was wrong. Since he had to go to his airship, he silently followed these people.

Because of his high spiritual power and excellent level of concealment, these people did not notice Cheng Yi’s presence even though they were very close.

 Cheng Yi got a lot of useful information from their infirmation.

"Brother, is it really okay to do this? If we are discovered... "

"You shut up! We’ve already taken the money. Aren’t you looking for death if you back out now?"

"Don’t make noise. I’ve done some research before; the security level in this neighborhood is average and the surveillance system doesn’t even have full coverage. As long as we catch him before he gets home, we’ll be fine. "

"Don’t give him a chance to turn on his light brain, or it’ll be over."

"Don’t maim him either. We’ll just scare him into changing his mind, otherwise things will be……"

The man’s words had barely left his mouth when he heard a cool voice suddenly come from behind him, "Who are you going to scare?"

The men were startled by the sudden voice. They looked back to see a man standing in the shadows not far away, but the light was too dim for them to see his face.

When they saw that there was only one person, they lowered their guard and asked rudely, "Who are you?"

"I asked you, whom are you trying to scare?" Cheng Yi didn’t pay any attention to the other party and just repeated his question.

The man on the other side was annoyed and cursed, "If you don’t want to die, you’d better get away from me, or I’ll get upset and…!"

Unfortunately, before he could finish his sentence, it turned into a shrill scream.

There was a second and a third, and a series of screams soon followed. When everyone had taken their turn to scream, Cheng Yi repeated his previous question, "Now, can you tell me whom you are going to scare?"

The group who were just screaming became so honest that they directly gave a full account of what happened: "We took money from a woman. She asked us to scare a person who lives in this neighborhood so that he would let her son go. "

 "Whom in this neighborhood?" Cheng Yi asked.

"The name seems to be An Yan, and he lives over there." The other party answered honestly.

Cheng Yi’s eyes narrowed slightly, and after a moment, he asked in a cold voice, "Who is the person who gave you the money? Take me to her."

On the other hand, An Yan was unaware of the episode that happened nearby. Once he got home safely, he happily opened presents with An Mu.

Apart from the two space buttons, Cheng Yi had also bought a whole bunch of other gifts, most of which were for An Yan’s mother.

Sets of cosmetics, jewellery, maintenance products, clothes, all of which were expensive.

An Yan compared the prices of these items with the ones he had bought for his mother before. He suddenly felt very ashamed that the prices of the things he, as a son, had bought were not at all comparable to the gifts Cheng Yi had bought for his mother.

The more he thought about it, the more he blamed himself. An Yan clenched his fist and solemnly assured his mother, "Mom, I will earn more money in the future and buy you better things!"

An Mu, who was in a complicated mood, suddenly wanted to say.  ‘Son, don’t worry. Even if you don’t earn a single penny, there will be Cheng Yi who will be filial to me for you. '

When she thought of this, An Mu’s mood became even more complicated.

She let out a long sigh and looked at her son meaningfully, "Yan Yan, don’t think too much. Wash up and go to bed early."

"Mom, you must believe me!" An Yan promised with a clenched fist and went to wash up.

That night, An Yan slept extraordinarily well. In his dream, he kept eating.

The next morning, An Yan woke up hungry.

It was probably because last night’s feast had aroused a deep-seated desire for good food in him.  He had eaten a lot, but he woke up feeling starved.

But it was morning, and there were no guests at home today, so it was impossible to have a big meal.

All An Yan could do was pathetically drink a packet of premium nutrition and happily nibble on a large apple.

He didn’t have any plans, so he planned to stay home and play with his light computer, enjoying a relaxing time by himself.

However, that plan changed when he got an email around 9 o’clock.

[Hello, Mr. An Yan.

The trial with you as the plaintiff and An Luo as the defendant will officially start at 3pm today. Please attend the trial on time.]

An Yan was shocked by this email.  He did not expect this case to be heard so soon.

But this was good news for An Yan. Although An Luo had been arrested, the matter wasn’t really settled until the final verdict.

An Yan’s plans for the whole day changed with this sudden email. He rummaged through his wardrobe and found only one piece of formal attire. The suit he received from the Cheng family while working part-time.

An Yan simply put on his jacket and went straight out the door.

He only intended to buy some clothes for himself, but as he shopped, he bought a brand new set of furniture. He bought a bed, a cabinet, a desk, a dining table, and so on.

He hadn’t bought them before because he didn’t want to go through the hassle of moving them again.  But with the space knob Cheng Yi had given him, all these things could easily fit in and could be taken out whenever he wanted. So naturally, An Yan couldn’t resist.

It was already twelve o’clock at noon by the time the whole set of furniture was bought. An Yan did not shop any more and went straight home because he had to attend the trial in the afternoon.

After taking a nutritional supplement and resting for a while, he washed up and changed into the formal clothes he had just bought this morning before finally going out.

An Yan arrived at just two o’clock while the trial would begin at 3. He wandered around for a while and waited until it was about time to enter the courtroom with the notice letter.

The staff settled him in the plaintiff’s seat, and soon a middle-aged man in a suit came over and sat not far away.

An Yan had seen this man before. He was the lawyer who helped him gather and sort out the evidence.  They had not been in touch again after he made sure that nothing was missing or needed to be added to the evidence.

The lawyer also saw An Yan. After a brief greeting, the latter went about his business, while An Yan continued to sit stiffly.

It was not until the trial was about to begin that An Yan finally saw An Luo. He was wearing a prison uniform and had electronic shackles on his hands. Although they were invisible, they restricted his movement.

As soon as he walked into the hall, An Luo began to look around. When he found An Yan, his eyes stared at him, not leaving for a moment.

An Yan’s eyes calmly swept over An Luo and then moved elsewhere. He had lost interest in looking at An Luo more than once.

The trial began, and the process was simpler than An Yan had expected. He didn’t even have the chance to speak before it was time for the final verdict.

"After trial, An Luo is finally sentenced to fifty years in prison for multiple crimes, including  attempted murder and repeated intentional wounding."

The moment the results of the trial were announced, An Luo, who was in the defendant’s seat, shouted, "This is impossible! How can you sentence me to fifty years! An Yan is not even dead. I didn’t kill anyone! You can’t do this... "

But before he could finish his words, he was forcibly taken away.

An Yan calmly watched as An Luo roared and struggled desperately until his figure disappeared around the corner. An Yan closed his eyes and sighed.

An Yan, did you see that? The person who killed you has already received the punishment he deserves. You can rest easy now.

At that moment, An Yan’s heart was inevitably filled with emotion and depression, as if an event had finally passed but the regret it left behind could never be repaired.

An Yan even felt a little confused as he walked out of the hall, not knowing where he should go for a moment.

At just this moment, his light brain suddenly rang. An Yan came back to his senses and hurriedly picked it up.

"Yan Yan, are you busy?" Cheng Yi’s voice then came through.

An Yan replied, "No, I’m not busy right now."

"Then can you come to my home?" Cheng Yi’s voice carried a faint smile, "I just tried making a few new dishes. Would you like to invite you over to try them?"

Hearing this familiar voice, An Yan inexplicably felt at peace. Even his confused emotions slowly settled down: "Sure, I’ll come over there then."

"Okay, I’ll wait for you." Cheng Yi said.

Half an hour later, An Yan was sitting in the Cheng family’s dining room, with a few extraordinarily tempting looking dishes in front of him.

Cheng Yi sat beside An Yan and said with a smile, "I happened to see these dishes on the virtual internet earlier and thought they were not bad. So, I tried to make them, but I don’t know if they taste good."

He was not lying. It was indeed the first time he had made these dishes, and it was also true that he had seen them on the virtual internet. But it was not by chance.  He had specifically looked them up in order to appease An Yan’s emotions.

According to the virtual internet, these dishes were known as healing dishes. No matter how bad a person’s mood was, they would forget all their worries after eating them and just have a contented stomach.

An Yan silently gulped, "These dishes look so delicious, and they smell so good!"

"Then quickly try them, Yan Yan." Cheng Yi handed the chopsticks to An Yan, while he held his chin up and looked at An Yan with a smile. 

"Then...then I won’t be polite!" Unable to resist the temptation of the food, An Yan started to move. Once he started, he couldn’t stop.

This dish is sour and sweet. It is so delicious!

The texture of this dish is so delicate, it’s really good!

How can there be such delicious food in this world!

He was so happy to be able to eat such delicious food!

Cheng Yi saw that An Yan had such a happy face that even his eyes squinted. He breathed a sigh of relief and put his heart down.

However, on second thought, just a few dishes of food and he was easily captured? Isn’t it too easy to coax the little one?

It seemed that he needed to put more effort into his cooking skills so that he could keep a close eye on the little one. Or else he would be coaxed away by others.
