[Yes, I’m that Great] lifted his long hair and pointed at his skinny face. “Chat, open your eyes wide, and look. I’m only 30 years old this year. If you say that I’m 50 years old now, I’m sure people will believe you, right?”

“I live like a ghost. 1 live in fear all the time. I don’t sleep well for 365 days a year.”

“Moreover, 1 don’t even dare to seek help if I’m bullied.”

“Even if I was almost killed by someone, I could only endure it.”

“I don’t even dare to tell a second person, let alone call the police for justice.”

Hearing this, Chen Yu nodded.

“In your twelve years of escaping, you’ve encountered many life-threatening situations.”

“Originally, these things would not have happened to you.”

“It’s precisely because you don’t dare to show your true face that you put yourself in danger time and time again.”

“Yeah.” [Yes, I’m that Great] nodded repeatedly and said sadly, “Dr. Chen, you’re absolutely right. This is my retribution!”

“Brother, what kind of place is it that can make you have such thoughts?”

“Yeah, why were you tied up?”

“Why don’t you tell us? Why are you keeping us in suspense?”

“It’s fine if Dr. Chen likes to talk in riddles, but why did you learn this too?”

“Did you encounter a human trafficker?”

“Human traffickers kidnapped him? Your brain must have gone haywire.”

“It can’t be that he met a kidnapper and was prepared to take him as a hostage to extort money from his family.”

“Come on. Would your kidnappers kidnap someone who looks like a beggar?”

The chat quarreled, and started to think again.

“It’s not that he doesn’t want to talk about it,” Chen Yu said as he tapped the table. “It’s just that he doesn’t want to recall the situation back then.”

“To him, the three years he was captured were like falling into hell.”

“If it wasn’t for something that happened later, his pain would have continued.”

[Yes, I’m that Great] asked, “Dr. Chen, you… you already know?”

“From your description and your speech and behavior, 1 can roughly analyze one or two things.”

“If you don’t want to remember, how about 1 tell it for you?”

Chen Yu asked.

“Anyway, it’s all in the past. There’s nothing to hide.”

Just as Chen Yu had said, it wasn’t that he didn’t want to tell the chat about this, but that he genuinely didn’t want to recall this painful memory.

Every time he recalled it, he would be scared half to death.

“When you fainted by the railway, a few men happened to pass by.”

“They felt that you were still breathing, so they carried you back to their residence.”

“Am I right?”

Hearing Chen Yu talk about what happened back then, [Yes, I’m that Great] body began to tremble.

Seeing this, Chen Yu continued, “These people’s identities are the thugs from the black coal mine.”

“There’s a garbage factory not far from the railway line. Usually, there are often homeless people and mentally disabled people who come to pick up food and clothes.”

“There are no legal procedures in the black coal mine, and the workers are engaged in the most dangerous work, so there is no way to recruit through proper channels.

“The owner targets these people.”

“The place where you fainted was not far from the garbage dump. Coupled with your appearance at that time, they mistakenly thought that you were also a tramp or a mentally disabled person.”

“After knowing the truth, you wanted to explain the situation and leave this place.”

“You also feel that it might not be bad to stay here. At least we have food and shelter.”

“If you run back out there, you might be caught by the police.”

“At that time, you had no idea how terrifying the black coal mine was. You simply pretended to be a retard.”

“It didn’t take long for you to regret it, as the black coal mine doesn’t treat you as human.”

“You ate worse than a pig every day, have very little rest time, and are engaged in the deadly coal mining work every day.”

“From time to time, someone will be buried alive.”

Just like that, [Yes, I’m that Great] closed his eyes, and his entire body trembled violently.

What happened many years ago had become a nightmare, constantly revolving in his mind.

“You tried to run more than once, but you were caught by the thugs every time.”

“These people can tell that you’re not a fool, and they also guessed that you must be a wanted criminal.”

“Otherwise, he wouldn’t have pretended to be stupid and stayed here.”

“First, they beat you up, and then they threatened to call the police. You had no choice but to stop resisting and stay behind to be their slave.”

“Three years later, the black coal mine collapsed severely, crushing more than twenty workers at once.

“This time, no matter what the boss of the black coal mine thinks of, he can’t cover up anymore.”

“He fled with his thugs and did not care about your lives.”

“Because you were the last one to go down, you weren’t buried too deep. In the end, you climbed up by yourself.”

“When you came out, there were already rescue workers and police officers at the scene.”

“When you saw the police, you acted as if you had seen a ghost. Ignoring the wounds on your body, you took the opportunity to slip away.”

[Yes, I’m that Great] nodded.

At that time, he had hesitated and thought about turning himself in.

However, when he thought about how he did not turn himself in after killing someone and chose to run away, it was a crime on top of a crime.

If he surrendered back then, he would be sentenced to life imprisonment. If he surrendered now, he would be executed.

After experiencing life and death in the black coal mine for three years, he learned how to play dumb.

He had run all the way to Jiang Province by pretending to be a retard.

There were many mountainous areas in Jiang Province, a vast rural area.

He stopped running once he reached this place.

During the day, they would pick up scraps and sell garbage. At night, he would hide in a cave behind a village.

This was his current hiding place.

“Although he deserves it, I still sympathize with him…”

“Sympathizing with criminals? Come on!”

“He’s right. From the moment he set foot on the road of escape, he was no longer a human. He was no better than a mouse.”

“Twelve years, and the murderer is still at large.”

“Speaking of which, the police are too lousy. They actually let him escape for twelve years.”

Hundreds of viewers who were watching the live broadcast had complicated expressions on their faces after hearing this comment.

In a majestic office building in the provincial capital of Jiang Province.

A man in a white shirt stared at the computer screen before him.

A few seconds later, the man in the white shirt’s phone rang.

“Sir, through facial recognition, we have locked onto the suspect’s identity, but… he is not a fugitive.”

“Hmm?”

“What?” The man in the white shirt frowned and asked again, “Say that again.”

“Sir, we’ve checked repeatedly. He’s indeed not a fugitive.”

“Through the police data system, we contacted the relevant units in his area.”

“He really isn’t a fugitive.”

The man in the white shirt felt that his brain cells were insufficient.

This was the first time he had encountered such a thing in his decades of service.

A criminal ran to the streamer’s live broadcast room, surrendered, and made a truthful confession of his crime.

Yet, this person was not a fugitive..
