Security Guard Lin Chen: Get Stronger by Taking a Beating, Get Rich When Humiliated

On my third day as a security guard, I discovered I could see when other people would die.

Get insulted, and 5,000 yuan appears in my account. Take a shove, and heat surges through my body: Strength +1.

Getting stronger from beatings and rich from humiliation, it's a passive skill passed down through my family.

Then the female CEO stared at me. "Why do you always wear sunglasses?"

I glanced at the top of her head: gold. A color I'd never seen before.

That night, I got a private message: "Bearer of the sunglasses legacy, meet me at the old pier. A friend of your parents."

I thought my parents had been dead for eighteen years. Turns out they were just... seeing things they shouldn't have.

Now I'm standing at the entrance to the residential complex. Black shadows hover above every resident in the building. A death calamity, at midnight tonight.

And my only weakness is that I must never, ever take off these sunglasses.

Because if I do, I'll die.

I get stronger from beatings and rich from humiliation. Just a security guard? I'm saving the lives of everyone in this building.
