What Is One Plus One?

(No harmful messaging, with a few mildly satisfying moments)

“Excuse me, what does one plus one equal?”

“Two.”

“Congratulations. You get to live.”

There was a time when Xu Ping'an wanted nothing more than to be an ordinary person with an ordinary life.

Maybe fate was unfair to him, or maybe he was just having a run of bad luck. Either way, Xu Ping'an's life changed dramatically.

And so did he.

“Do ordinary people deserve to die? Are people who amount to nothing supposed to be the laughingstock you make them out to be?”

“You humiliate and bully me from your position of power. Does that make you right?”

“I never deny my mistakes, or the fact that I'm making them right now. But I don't regret what I've done. Explain to me using your own principles: what's wrong with it?”
