Chapter 001 "White Light Being"

Xintu believes that the so-called "absolutely safe environment" must come at a corresponding cost. Setting this aside, Xintu sincerely feels that since he has already experienced death and undergone the unimaginable "second life," living in an "absolutely safe environment" from now on would truly be a waste of resources

Since he is still on Earth, it means he has the opportunity to see his seriously ill mother in the hospital, and it also means he has the chance to avenge that bullet...! ... and the Lu family!

Xin Tu said innocently: "Please, officer, I myself am baffled as to why I am here. I woke up just half a minute earlier than you. I don't know anything, what do you want me to say?"

I do not know how much time has passed

The white light being fell silent for a moment, "Behind that door lies infinite unknowns. You may survive, or you may die. If you die, I will not grant you life again, which means you will die forever. You have two choices, but only one opportunity to choose."

"You must serve me," the White Light Man's tone remained consistently calm and unhurried, giving a sense of coldness and ruthlessness, and he said, "as a reward for granting you a second life."

Xintu immediately pointed to the door on the right and decisively said, "Then I choose that one"

Xin Tu wore an expression of "I knew it" as he sighed, jumped down from the jade bed where he had been lying, and after stretching his body without feeling any discomfort, said: "What do you want me to do?"

The young armed police officer fell silent

Xintu said: "It won't take half an hour. I have already stated that I choose the door on the right"

As the figure in white light raised both hands, Xintu saw two doors miraculously appear on the curved wall. The white, unlit doors formed a stark contrast against the glowing wall.

Oh," Xin Tu nodded slightly and sighed in relief, saying: "That's good.

Xin Tu suddenly felt very strange, as he was extremely averse to the color white; however, the white surrounding him did not evoke any feelings of disgust.

But he saw nothing, as the surroundings were pitch black, making it impossible to see even his own hand. In an instant, Xin Tu felt a pressure that quickened his heartbeat, coming from all directions. Even someone like Xin Tu, who could remain calm in the face of absurdities such as "death and resurrection," appeared somewhat flustered and even fearful at this moment

You are already dead

Although it is said this way, Xin Tu clearly remembers that he was indeed shot by Lu Hongyi, who is his cousin

At this moment, the figure of white light raised its hand, and three milky-white orbs of light appeared out of thin air in front of Xintu.

His tone clearly conveyed: If you do not speak honestly to me, the gun in my hand will speak honestly to you

Just one question

Xin Tu nodded slightly, not bothering to ponder what that white glowing orb truly was, and stepped towards the door on the right. After pausing in front of the door for a moment and taking a deep breath, he pushed the door open with force

Xin Tu pondered for a moment and asked, "May I ask... am I still on Earth?"

At this moment, he is lying on a bed that resembles white jade. Upon careful touch, it indeed turns out to be made of exquisite white jade. Whether it is truly white jade or not is of little concern to him; he is merely experiencing his sense of touch.

Hey, ever since being driven out of the Lu family by Wu Qing twelve years ago, falling from paradise to hell, enduring the cold and hunger on a rainy night, almost succumbing to a high fever and sleeping without waking, Xin Tu felt that his ability to endure reality had become astonishingly strong after waking up the next day. As he himself said, what could be more important than being alive? No matter how incredible the situation, as long as the mind continues to think, it can always find a way to make sense of it.

Xin Tu glanced at the three luminous orbs and pointed to the one in the middle, saying, "The one in the middle!" As soon as the words left his mouth, the milky-white orb floated automatically into Xin Tu's hand

Xin Tu hurriedly rummaged through his pocket, and when he felt the phone inside, his tightened heart finally relaxed. He took out the phone and pressed a random button, and at last, a five-inch light radiated from the screen. Although Xin Tu's phone was the kind of "dumb phone" (which was referred to as a smartphone thirty or forty years ago), so cheap that even thieves wouldn't bother to steal it, it was sufficient to meet his immediate need for illumination and to dispel the psychological discomfort of darkness.

Xintu Dao: "You only need to tell me what to do to enter the door on the right"

Did they also choose the door on the right like I did

Xintu covered his eyes with his hand and said: "You ask me, but I still want to ask you."

This phenomenon is both remarkable and abnormal

In an instant, Xin Tu felt an extremely strong vortex-like pulling force emanating from behind the door, to the extent that he did not even have time to see what was behind it, just as he had lost his self-awareness in death before.

What is this

Suddenly, a person over there sprang up abruptly

"You're welcome." The white light being nodded slightly, "Now please tell me, have you accepted the reality of dying and being reborn, and arriving in this unfamiliar place?"

There are two doors here, and I offer you two types of work. The figure of white light points to the left door and says, "By entering this left door, you will forever be in an absolutely safe environment. As long as you are willing to work hard, you can even live forever, without aging or dying. You should believe that I can make this happen. All you need to do is to fulfill your 'primary duty.' After entering this door, your 'primary duty' will automatically form memories and understanding in your mind.

Pioneer? What does it mean?

Sitting up and looking around, one sees a cylindrical space, resembling a slightly larger water tower. Both the walls and the floor seem to possess the ability to emit light on their own, with a soft white glow that feels very comfortable.

The figure of white light said: "This is the final procedure. Three light spheres, you may choose any one."

As Xin Tu shone his phone around, he was startled. It turned out that just one meter away from him lay another person. Continuing to shine the light, Xin Tu and Tu Shu were astonished to discover that there were actually more than twenty people lying around them, including men and women, old and young, as well as some with white skin and others with black skin, who were actually outsiders.

"Everyone, stop arguing! How annoying!" Suddenly, a loud shout rang out, startling everyone with its deep voice. It was a strong white muscular man wearing a black tank top, which was stretched tight by his muscles. Coupled with his fierce appearance, the people around him instinctively moved a few steps away from him

The young armed police officer fixed his gaze on Xin Tu, subtly adjusting the angle of his firearm, and then said in a low voice: "Who are you? Where is this place?" As he spoke, he drew a tactical flashlight from his waist and directed the blinding light at Xin Tu's face.

May I ask questions? For example, who are you, where is this place, and so on

Is this the world after death

What is the matter

The one who uttered the phrase "You are already dead" is a being—well, to describe it accurately, it is a humanoid entity composed of white light, possessing arms and legs, yet lacking facial features. However, Xin Tu can be one hundred percent certain that the white light figure before him is definitely not a 3D holographic projection. This alone has already surpassed Xin Tu's understanding

Well, I have accepted reality. Xin Tu waved his arm to feel a sense of control over his body, and compared to the fact that I am still alive, nothing else matters. Although I am filled with confusion.

Xin Tu and the young armed police looked over and saw a boy. Xin Tu then said to the young armed police: "Look, big brother police, now someone is asking you too."

The white light figure fell silent for a moment and said: "You are quite interesting. You are the only one so far who has decisively chosen the right door. I can tell you that if you choose the left door, you will lose your freedom forever. This is our first meeting, and it will also be our last. If you do not perform your duties well, we will meet again, but at that time, I will reclaim everything I have granted you, including your life. Now, both I and the book allow you to ask one question. This is an additional reward I grant you."

If you can survive, the White Light will make you a "Pioneer"

Some people even attempted to make phone calls, which made Xin Tu want to laugh out loud. He had already seen that there wasn't even a single bar of signal, yet they still hoped to connect the call

Darkness, coldness, rain, and white are the things that Xintu despises the most, while also fearing them.

The white light figure spoke again, yet did not answer Xin Tu's question, "You have indeed died, but I have brought you back to life. Those who died between 11:00 and 12:00 on November 15, 2052, I have resurrected them all. And you are one of them. Therefore, while you are questioning your current peculiar situation, I hope you can say 'thank you' to me. Because your mother gave you your first life, and I have given you your second life." Therefore, while you are questioning your current peculiar situation, I hope you can say 'thank you' to me. Because your mother gave you your first life, and I have given you your second life.

The figure in white light said: "It is quite literal. If you choose the door on the right and ultimately survive, you will understand. Thus, one door represents eternal safety, while the other signifies eternal uncertainty. You have half an hour to choose the course of your future life"

Moreover, I distinctly remember being shot dead by that cousin of mine; logically, I should have already died. Therefore, although Xin Tu appeared calm on the surface, his heart was churning with overwhelming waves of terror.

However, the most basic common sense tells me that if I am dead, I will definitely not hear the words 'You are dead.' Lying flat, Xintu murmured while looking around and said, 'At the same time, I cannot repeat what I just said. May I ask where this place is? Hell, or Heaven?'

Ah, it is still a cash-on-delivery model

Xin Tu subconsciously directed the brightness of his phone towards the figure, only to see a young man dressed in a paramilitary uniform and wearing a bulletproof vest. The gaze directed at him was extremely fierce, as if Xin Tu were a ruthless criminal. In his hand, he held a standard-issue CF-5 rifle, and notably, there were several drops of blood on his cheek

Associating https://www.hetushu.com.com with his previous experience of death, Xintu could not help but wonder if the blood on that person's face was left behind when he died

Soon, Xintu saw that the young armed police officer had already been surrounded by several individuals from the East Asian Republic, clearly expecting this "servant of the people" to fulfill his duty. The crowd was chattering away, asking various questions, which caused the young officer's earlier fierceness to dissipate, leaving him looking quite awkward instead. He could only use pale and hesitant words to appease everyone.

One by one, the people who had been lying unconscious on the ground began to awaken. Each of them took out a light source, and soon the surroundings were illuminated. However, questions such as "Who are you?" "Where is this?" "How did I end up here?" arose in succession. Yet, it was futile for each person to ask, as the answers they received were all the same: "I don't know"

However, there was nothing. That milky white sphere of light directly permeated into Xintu's body

Thank you

Xin Tu was awakened by a sudden chill that pierced through him. As soon as he opened his eyes, he shivered from the cold. Then, he abruptly sat up, his eyes scanning the surroundings.

"No." Xintu was interrupted before finishing his sentence

The white light of humanity: "Now your life belongs to me."

The figure in white light nodded and said, "Here."

Therefore, Xin Tu felt that he was somewhat asking a question he already knew the answer to. There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world; if there is, it is either leftover scraps or comes with a cost you are unaware of. The mysterious and peculiar white light being before him had actually resurrected him—well, putting aside the even more incredible notion of "bringing the dead back to life" for the moment, Xin Tu believed that he must pay some price.

You are not speaking

You may leave now

The figure in white light said, "No, there is one most important thing you must know"

As soon as Xintu finished speaking, a voice rang out, "Hiss, it's so cold. Where is this place? Who are you?"

Clenching his fist, exerting strength, blinking, thinking, touch, hearing, everything indicates one point: he is still alive
