Fang Ze awakened in a superpower-laden realm as a police officer, intent on serving faithfully. His plans fractured when he learned the devastating truth—he was actually a criminal the authorities had captured and reprogrammed, his memories erased and replaced with false identity. The police weaponized his fragmented recollections to dismantle his criminal network, orchestrating an elaborate trap to ensnare him and his accomplices simultaneously. Salvation arrived through an extraordinary ability: the Midnight Investigation Room. Each midnight, he could delve into any target's psyche, hearing their unfiltered thoughts while extracting tangible rewards proportional to his intelligence gathered. His acquisitions became formidable: beauty-preserving mushrooms; credit cards enabling unlimited future borrowing; shadow-dwelling assassins bound to his will; demon eyes piercing into alternate dimensions; kobolds amplifying training efficiency twofold; parasitic seeds converting enemies into mindless servants; and transformative tapes crystallizing human flesh to stone. Racing against discovery, Fang Ze methodically unraveled mysteries while accumulating power and influence. Yet each answer unveiled deeper conspiracies until a terrifying realization consumed him—the world itself was engineered deception. Decades later, Fang Ze ruled as the King of Darkness, his throne constructed from the bleached remains of countless vanquished foes.
