[[[[Chapter Start Here]]]]

Upon hearing this, Fu Yan took a deep breath and steadied his emotions. After a brief pause, he gave a slight nod and ordered.

"Ok play it."

The moment he said this, the display on the screen in front of him changed and a video started to play. 

In the video a car was driving slowly on the road then suddenly a truck came from behind and then deliberately smashed the car from the side. 

The car suddenly lost control and then hit the guardrail. The guardrail broke, and then it fell into the valley below. 

The simulation ended right after that and played again. 

Fu Yan sat there motionless and just watched. The screen reflected in his eyes that were steady, with no fluctuations. 

The video continued to play in a loop, but Fu Yan still did not react. After a while, he suddenly stood up and walked towards the wall. 

He stood in front of the wall without saying anything and placed his head against the wall, not knowing what to do. 

He always thought it was an accident that took his parents and his dear sister away from him, but now looking at the simulation that Qing had calculated, he did not know what to think anymore. 

Only one question was echoing inside his mind.

Who and why? Why would anyone want to kill his parents? They were any other normal parents, but why would someone want to kill them? 

Nir, who was sitting on one side, also noticed Fu Yan's emotions and he silently put down the tablet in his hand and came beside Fu Yan. 

He just silently stood behind Fu Yan and awaited orders.

After a while, a golden light flashed in Fu Yan's eyes, and anger swelled inside his mind. Losing control of emotions, he suddenly slammed his fist into the wall and a hole appeared in it. 

His hand was also injured, and blood seeped out from the cuts. Feeling the pain, Fu Yan looked towards his hand, and then the golden light in his eyes started to fade. 

Fu Yan looked towards his hand, then towards the hole in the wall, and let out a sigh. 

'This again. It's affecting me more and more. I need to control it. I don't think this is something beneficial for me.'

Then he turned around and saw Nir standing behind him. Fu Yan smiled at seeing this, and light rubbed his head. 

"You can go back to what you were doing. I am fine."

Nir looked towards Fu Yan with some worry and then turned back towards his seat. 

Fu Yan took a deep breath and was about to give orders to Qing when his mobile suddenly rang. 

He looked at the caller id and saw that it was Fei Hong. Picking up the phone, he pressed the answer button, and Fei Hong's anxious voice sounded in his ears.

"Fu Yan, we have a problem."

Fu Yan calmly listened and then replied.

"Calm down first and then tell me the details."

There was silence for a while, and then Fei Hong's voice sounded again.

"There is a military general inside our meeting room right now and they are demanding that we take down the simulator that was put online a few days ago."

Fu Yan let out a mocking smile and then asked.

"Have you asked them why we should do that? I mean they have to give us a reason for doing so."

Fei Hong was silent for a while, then she replied. 

"I tried to talk to him but he refused to say anything. He insisted that he will talk with the boss of the company or the creators of the simulator. He threatened that if we failed to comply with his demands, our company would be shut down. He said they have a lot of resources for doing so."

Hearing this, Fu Yan took a deep breath. He knew that this day would come. He was prepared for this, like registering a shell company and then licensing the technology through that so that the government can't seize it but directly closing the company he worked so hard for was going against the rules. 

After thinking for a bit, he chuckled and then said.

"Ok, go back to the meeting room and I will speak with him through the phone."

Fei Hong nodded and walked out of her office. When she walked into the meeting room, a middle-aged man in a military uniform was sitting on the president's chair. Beside him were two soldiers with armed guns. 

Seeing Fei Hong walking in, he smiled and asked. 

"So, what did you decide? Is your boss ready to talk?"

Fei Hong sat on the chair opposite to him and answered respectfully. 

"Yes, the boss said he will call in a minute. Please wait."

The man smiled and then leaned back in the chair. After a while, the landline phone on the table rang and then the call connected automatically. 

Through its speakers Fu Yan's voice sounded in the room. 

"So can I ask for what reason the deputy director of the national strategic weapons gave us a visit."

The moment he heard this, the general's face distorted a little and a look of surprise flashed past on his face, but he quickly hid it. After that, anger rose on his face and he asked furiously. 

"So you took your time investigating me. You know that threatening an on duty person is a capital offense."

Fu Yan sneered when he heard this and replied.

"Well, I am scared so let's get to the main point for what you are here for."

The general also understood that it was meaningless bickering about this, so he coughed a little and then said.

"First of all, we congratulate you for creating something that is well ahead of the world's technology by many years. With this the world can advance fast and new technologies can be created easily without spending much effort but we want you to wait for a while before releasing it to the world."

Fu Yan listened to this and replied with a laugh.

"So in other words, you want to use it first and when you have mastered it, you want to release it to others. I can understand that but my question is, why should I do that?"

When the general heard this, he smiled and answered.

"If you do something for the country, then the country will also do something for you."

Fu Yan nodded at hearing this and asked.

"And what if I said no?"

The smile on the general's face faded when he heard this.

"Well, this matter involves national security, so you have to comply with our demands. We can seize your goods forcefully but we both know that does not align with our interests."

On the other end of the phone, Fu Yan shook his head slightly.

'National Security my ass.'

He thought that inside his head and after thinking for a while; he replied.

"Ok, give me some time. I need to consult with others before deciding on this matter. I will give you my answer in a week."

He asked for a week because he wanted to deal with some matters first as for complying with their orders. Well, in their dreams, that is. 

His goal was to advance earth's technology without giving power to one country so he had plans ahead of time for dealing with such things. 

The general on the other side heard this and nodded. 

"Ok, we can give you time, but only a week. We want this software taken down after a week."

After saying this, he stood up from his seat and then walked out of the meeting room with the soldiers. 

Fei Hong watched them going out, and after they were gone, she lightly asked.

"Fu Yan, are you going to comply with their demands?"

Fu Yan let out a chuckle and then replied.

"No way. We will transfer our headquarters to a small country on the other side of the globe or a free state. In other words, somewhere where there is a little influence on us for doing business. I want to create new technologies for the world to benefit not just one person or country. Anyway, that talk is for later but you should mentally prepare yourself that's why I'm telling you this."

Fei Hong nodded, hearing this, and the call disconnected. Immediately after this, Fei Hong stood up and walked towards the washroom. There was no surveillance there, so she took out a small phone and turned it on. After she dialed a number, the call connected immediately. Fei Hong softly said something and then she broke the phone and flushed it. 

After that she walked out of the toilet calmly as if nothing had happened. During the whole time, she did not look up and avoided the camera's as much as she could as if she knew she was being watched by someone.
