Chapter 43 - 43: Outdoor Trial Begins, Wanting to Enter the Second Realm!
Following Zhang Zhenghuai’s words, Xu Kui also stood up and gave a military salute to everyone present. He said seriously, “Thank you, comrades!
“When the time comes to capture the criminals, our military will protect everyone’s safety the entire time. We will definitely punish these two heinous mercenaries. As for tracking their location and the tomb raiders, we will have to rely on Chief Zhang and everyone else.”
Zhang Zhenghuai hurriedly stood up and raised his hand to gesture for Xu Kui to take a seat. Then, he glanced at everyone and said sternly, “Although Commander Xu has expressed his stance, it’s our responsibility for this group of people to come to our territory. Therefore, Commander Xu is helping us, but we still have to carry the flag of the safety of our city!”
“Do you understand?”
“Understood!”
Zhang Zhenghuai questioned all the police officers present sternly. Everyone responded in unison with a loud shout, full of confidence.
“Alright, let’s discuss and analyze the details and make arrangements in advance. When the tomb raiders appear, we’ll take action immediately!”
After saying that, Zhang Zhenghuai got someone to operate the computer and play the information on the criminal in his hand.
Zhou Xiaoxiao listened quietly at the side and took all kinds of notes.
The meeting lasted for three hours before ending.
After the meeting ended, Zhou Xiaoxiao was called to the office by Chief Zhang and Captain Chen.
They summarized the various clues from the robber’s case until now. Although there were no clues of that mysterious and dangerous existence, the investigation still needed to continue.
Zhang Zhenghuai said, “Little Zhou, the mission recently is a little heavy, but young people need to grow in such a high-pressure environment to train themselves. To be honest, can you withstand it?”
Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoxiao’s fatigue was swept away. She perked up and said,
“I promise to complete the mission of the organization!”
“Not bad, not bad. Speaking of which, have any suspicious people appeared in Hibiscus City recently?”
Captain Chen thought for a moment and said, “Chief Zhang, it’s been quite quiet after the robber case. Only some thieves and pickpockets have been arrested. As for the mysterious existence we’re looking for who has an unknown and dangerous weapon, we still don’t have any clues.”
When Zhang Zhenghuai heard this news, he did not know if he should be happy or sad.
The joy was that Hibiscus City had now returned to calm. This meant that the city government had mobilized so many police forces to capture the robbers back then. It had really revealed the determination and strength of Hibiscus City to create a safe city to fight against criminals.
The effect was also very obvious. Now that more than a week had passed, the security was much better than before.
However, what was worrying was that the person who had an unknown lethal and dangerous weapon on them and mysteriously disappeared from the scene back then was like a thorn in their heart. It made Zhang Zhenghuai feel like a fishbone was stuck in his throat and he could not sleep well.
Now, this person with a dangerous weapon had also hidden himself. If they did not find them, they would always be a time bomb buried in Hibiscus City.
Zhang Zhenghuai frowned and left after saying a few words.
Time passed quietly. Unknowingly, it was time to get off work again.
After Zhou Xiaoxiao bade farewell to Captain Chen, she studied the information about the tomb raider activities in her office again.
“The most recent outcrop was near Cold Springs Town, Big Stone Dam, and Gazi Groove. Then, it disappeared without a trace.
Then, what can they care about in Cold Springs Town?”
Zhou Xiaoxiao was bored and started to take out her phone map to check the locations of these three places.
The three places were more than 70 kilometers away from the outskirts of the city. They were backed by a mountain and connected to the outer city.
As she watched, Zhou Xiaoxiao suddenly realized something strange.
Cold Springs Town, Big Stone Dam, and Gazi Groove were all farm towns at the foot of the Burning Mountain Range.
“Could it be that the ancient tomb they want to excavate is on the Burning
Mountain?”
Zhou Xiaoxiao followed this conjecture and checked some ancient books related to the Burning Mountain, but she did not find any documents about ancient big shots buried in the Burning Mountain.
Unknowingly, the sky had already darkened.
Zhou Xiaoxiao ordered takeout and planned to work overtime today to organize the information.
After a while, the takeaway arrived. Zhou Xiaoxiao felt bored while eating.
Hence, she opened the Sharkfight Streaming Platform and clicked on the flying card live-stream titled “When the next realm is reached, you can pluck leaves like falling stars.”
At 7:30 p.m., in Su Yun’s live-stream.
[Welcome to the live-stream.]
[There are 8,543 people online in the live-stream.]
In the livestream, Su Yun was already throwing cards in the room.
Due to the restrictions of the venue, he was still broadcasting his unique skill of throwing cards and hitting wooden stakes.
The bipolarization in the comments was very serious.
Some of them were fans of Brother Perseverance who admired Su Yun’s perseverance.
The other part was the fans of the streamer who called him a troll.
Of course, there was also a portion of bored fans who were sleepy and wanted to watch the fun.
Su Yun did not mind. Instead, after practicing for a while, he began to interact with his fans.
“I watched the streamer’s outdoor livestream this afternoon. I feel that the outdoors are much more interesting.”
“That’s right. I’m sick of watching it indoors.”
“I strongly suggest that the streamer start an outdoor livestream.”
“I agree!”
“I’m looking forward to the streamer being able to livestream the scene of hitting two birds with one card.”
“If you can use poker cards to kill birds, I’ll livestream me chopping birds!”
“That’s right. Special effects are special effects, and props are props. You can definitely say that you’ve practiced a lot, but there won’t really be fools who believe that those illogical flying cards are techniques, right?”
Seeing that the atmosphere in the comments was a little off, Su Yun was also speechless.
However, on careful thought, it was a good choice for a few netizens to suggest that he do an outdoor live broadcast.
This was because he had already experienced the benefits of an outdoor live broadcast at noon today.
Whether it was in terms of popularity, viewability, or the improvement of his realm, it seemed to be a good choice.
He had been trapped in the room all this time and had indeed shut himself in.
If he went to experience the outdoors, having more complicated flying card environments would indeed be beneficial to improving his realm.
For example, after coming out of seclusion to practice martial arts, one had to go out to train.
Just like this afternoon, because of his first outdoor practice, he had actually comprehended the technique of following the wind and increased his strength.
Now, Su Yun had a feeling that he might be able to step into the second realm in one go in this outdoor trial.
He could control it as if it was his own arm!
He wondered how powerful the flying card would be in this realm.
“I think the brother just now was right. I accept your suggestion.”
“I plan to do more outdoor livestreams recently. This is also a test and training for my card throwing skills.”
Su Yun happily accepted the netizen’s suggestion and said that he would plan to do an outdoor live broadcast in the near future.
At the same time, in the police station of Hibiscus City, Zhou Xiaoxiao, who was eating and watching the livestream, realized that the streamer was planning to change the outside environment. She immediately smiled proudly.
She had really guessed correctly. The streamer was indeed planning to change to other special effects.
However, no matter what, there were new tricks that made her interested in this card throwing streamer again. She wanted to see how he would go outdoors to do his work.
“It’s not that easy to livestream outdoors. I want to see how much he can come up with outside.”
Zhou Xiaoxiao watched Su Yun’s live-stream until it ended. Coincidentally, she had finished her meal. Only then did she pack her things and continue working.
After Su Yun turned off the livestream, he fell into deep thought.
Since he had to choose the outdoors, it was not a problem to always stay at the small hill at the back of the district. Not to mention anything else, just cleaning up the poker cards that flew out was a headache.
If this continued, the auntie in charge of environmental management would definitely punish him with thousands of yuan.
Moreover, the environment of the small hill behind the district was too simple. It was fine to livestream once or twice, but if there were too many, it would be no different from indoors.
Therefore, he still had to choose an outdoor place with a varied and complicated environment. Only then could he achieve the effect of the trial and have a chance to completely break through to the second realm!
“Where should I go to train?”
Ring ring ring…
Just as Su Yun was in a dilemma, his phone suddenly rang, scaring him so much that he trembled slightly.
Su Yun picked it up and took a look. It was actually a call from his university best friend, Big Head Yang.
“Hey, Big Head, what’s the matter?”
