Quan Xiangzuo lay back in his expanded residence, surrounded by high-tier materials and items within arm's reach, yet he didn't dare even entertain the thought of touching them.
Because he only had custody, not the right to use them.
If he were caught using the items privately, he would surely be tortured to the point where life would be worse than death.
Such things, he had witnessed and even experienced firsthand.
That was back on Earth, when a colleague was exposed for embezzlement, captured, and tortured for three days and nights before finally dying.
The reason Quan Xiangzuo remembered this event so vividly was that he was the one who reported that colleague, and he even personally participated in the torture.
Don't even think about doubting such extrajudicial killings; in the Stealing Country, the lives of ordinary people aren't considered lives at all.
