Chapter 97: Are You Stealing Someone's Livelihood?

Watching the angry curses from the viewers in his streaming room, Jiang Yun’s grin became even more shameless. At that moment, a voice echoed in his mind.

[Ding, congratulations to the host. Today’s check-in is successful. Reward: one McLaren Elva.]

Hearing the system’s voice, Jiang Yun didn’t hesitate for a second before addressing his audience, “Alright, brothers, today’s stream ends here. See you tomorrow!”

As soon as he finished, before the viewers could start ranting, Jiang Yun had already shut down the stream. His fluid movements left the fans nearby utterly stunned.

Turning to one of them, Jiang Yun asked, “Brother, didn’t you say you had a few questions for me just now? What else is on your mind?”

The young man’s mouth twitched. “Actually, I wanted to ask if you really just treat streaming as a hobby, but now it seems that question is pointless.”

Jiang Yun: ...

“Tsk.” Jiang Yun smacked his lips regretfully. “You should’ve come to me tomorrow instead. Then I could've relied on you to pad my stream time! That question alone could've helped me kill half an hour, just by rambling nonsense.”

The young man: ????

The confusion in his eyes was almost spilling over. But Jiang Yun just patted his shoulder with regret. “Too bad. Still, you helped me fill today’s ten minutes. That’s enough.”

“Well... Goodbye then, Yunzi!”

“Bye~ Come back to Chengdu anytime.”

After bidding farewell, Jiang Yun took his leave. Through the system, he already knew that the reward for today’s check-in was waiting in his home’s underground garage. Now that he had a new car, he planned to return the Passat.

He hadn’t walked far when he caught sight of a somewhat familiar figure at the corner of the street. Dressed in blue-and-white school uniform, squatting, head bowed…

That familiar outfit conjured up a less-than-pleasant memory for Jiang Yun. He subconsciously headed in that direction.

Before he could approach, the person seemed to notice him and lifted her head slightly. Though he couldn’t see her face clearly, Jiang Yun’s instincts told him—it was her.

He hurried forward, stopping in front of her. Before he could speak, she muttered through gritted teeth, “Jiang Yun, you just won’t leave me alone, will you!”

Jiang Yun: ...

Zhende Sniya!

Yes, this was none other than Officer Fang Siqi, whom Jiang Yun had tricked so badly last time.

Seeing Fang Siqi back in that familiar outfit, Jiang Yun squatted down, curiously asking in a low voice, “Hey, don’t you have anyone else at your station? Why is it you again?”

Jiang Yun didn’t think Fang Siqi was out here cosplaying. Based on their last encounter, it was obvious she was on duty.

“Mind your own business!” Fang Siqi snapped, then quickly added, “Move to the right, you’re blocking my view.”

Jiang Yun: ...

Following her direction, Jiang Yun moved aside and continued, “This isn’t that close to Chunxi Road, right? It shouldn’t be your station’s jurisdiction.”

Chengdu is hardly a small city; naturally, there’s more than one police station, each responsible for its own area. In Jiang Yun’s view, there was no way this place fell under the same station as Chunxi Road.

“This isn’t my station’s jurisdiction.”

“Then why are you here?”

“I like cosplaying, alright? Just shut up!”

“Oh come on, tell me. Worst case, I’ll keep you company on your mission. I’ve got nothing else to do anyway.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Siqi rolled her eyes and said, “I was borrowed for this, just keeping an eye out.”

“But do you really have to use this trick again? My last stream went viral, and maybe the person you’re monitoring is already wary of you.”

“There’s a scammer here who’s been at it for years. Taking her spot won’t raise suspicion.”

“And the original?”

“Chased off by the local city management.”

“Oh~” Jiang Yun nodded in understanding. “So you’re taking her job, huh?”

Fang Siqi: ...

“If you keep talking, I’m going to slap you!”

“Uh...” Jiang Yun scratched his head. “How long are you going to squat here? Don’t tell me you’ll be here all day like last time.”

Fang Siqi was silent for a moment, then said irritably, “Why don’t I just tell you the target, scope, and full plan for this operation?”

“No need...” Jiang Yun smacked his lips. “I’ll leave you to your task, then. Let’s get together for a toilet break sometime.”

Fang Siqi: ...

“Get lost!”

Hearing her disdain, Jiang Yun didn’t bother her further and got up to leave. Still, he’d already guessed the nature of her current operation.

After all, Jiang Yun was just an outsider. Fang Siqi admitting she was on duty, then letting him go, only proved he had zero involvement.

How does one prove a regular person has absolutely no connection to a case? Jiang Yun already had an answer...

With that thought, Jiang Yun returned to his underground garage and drove the Passat back to the dealership.

As he walked out, he ran into Daimei and her three companions approaching him head-on. Everyone stopped at once, the air seeming to freeze.

Jiang Yun: ...

Daimei: ...

Their eyes met briefly, then Daimei turned to her friends and said without hesitation, “Forget it! Let’s go home!”

Just as she was about to leave, TunTun grabbed her arm. “Come on, you haven’t had a car lately. Get a cheap one; if something happens, you won’t feel bad.”

Daimei looked at TunTun with a blank expression. “I’ve quit. I’m afraid driving again will be the death of me.”

Mozi and Hump Sister couldn’t help laughing at that.

Jiang Yun, hearing their exchange, stepped forward somewhat embarrassed. “How about I give you a commuter car?”

“Hm?” Daimei’s eyes lit up. “Deal!”

Jiang Yun: ...

Sister, your mood swings are too fast.

“It’s just a commuter car. I can afford to give you one,” Jiang Yun said with a smile.

But Daimei hesitated, a flicker of doubt on her face. “What if I can’t even make it out of the dealership?”

Jiang Yun: ...

“I’ll drive you home! If anything happens, it’s my responsibility. I’ll give you another one!” Jiang Yun replied irritably.

“Alright!”

With Jiang Yun’s promise, Daimei had no reason to refuse. She turned and walked straight into the dealership.
