63: I found a mysterious black thread! Another day full of hope!

Tone it down?

Is this something Su Yun can control just by saying so?

Why does everyone think I'm doing this on purpose?

Don't I want to pick up junk properly?

Do I want to involve the police every day?

Do I want to act inhuman every day?

Of course, the Police Bureau wanting to sponge off a meal is true... Su Yun suddenly rolled his eyes: "Chief Director."

"Fine, I'll try my best."

He hung up the phone, feeling incredibly depressed.

That kid, Wang Fan.

He came carrying the camera again and immediately started the livestream without a word.

— — [Hubby! You're handsome again today!]

— — [Holy crap, so the Streamer is this handsome. Just debut right now!]

— — [Alright, alright, you're this handsome and you're picking up junk, huh? Folks, I can't live like this!]

— — [The betting pool is open, folks. Is anyone betting on the Big Cannon today?]

— — [Hello everyone, I'm a brother from the Quit Gambling Bar...]

— — [I'll go first, corpse, betting one thousand!]

— — [Atomic bomb! Betting ten thousand!]

[Popularity] +1 +1 +1

[Popularity] +1 +1 +1

... The moment the livestream started, it hit its peak, with popularity approaching one million.

Su Yun probably knew himself that he was incredibly hot right now.

"Brother, what should we do today?"

"How about we go get a foot wash and massage?"

"Forget it..."

Su Yun lost his mood just thinking about the last incident at Tazhai Village.

The image and persona must be established.

Now people online are starting to randomly give him nicknames... like Su the Half-Immortal, or Su the Big Cannon... they sound awful!

He couldn't let outsiders misunderstand him anymore.

No matter what, he wouldn't cause trouble today... "Today, we're not doing anything but purely picking up junk!"

"Let's go!"

The two of them set off.

They walked along the sidewalk, starting to pick up junk by the roadside... At the entrance of the Longhai City Police Bureau.

Deputy Director Zhang and Director Chen got into the car, preparing to rush to the Department for a reporting conference.

Director Qi had said.

If they wanted to make progress, he needed to make more reports and summaries.

Hearing that major and important cases in Longhai City were being solved one after another.

Director Qi also wanted to learn from them.

He desperately wanted to advance... Therefore.

Officer Hong and several other captains and department heads stood together.

"Bureau Chief Chen, please rest assured!"

"Nothing will happen at the Bureau."

"Have a safe trip..."

"We will take good care of the Bureau!"

The words sounded strange.

Before leaving.

Director Chen and Deputy Director Zhang both entered Su Yun's livestream room and watched for a while.

After confirming that the kid was seriously picking up junk.

Only then did they feel relieved and let the driver start the car.

"Phew..."

"Now that the Director has left, we don't know when he'll be back."

"Once he gets to the Department, he's definitely going to receive praise!"

"This time, our Longhai City Police Bureau has finally stood tall!"

One could imagine.

How proud Director Chen's expression would be while sitting at the reporting conference.

Officer Hong shook his head and laughed.

"Let's go back and watch the livestream."

"Don't forget the tasks the Director assigned us."

... Yongchang Street, Longhai City.

Two figures, one fat and one thin, wandered along the sidewalk.

After a whole morning.

They hadn't picked up much junk, but they had taken a ton of photos with fans...

It seemed local fans had sniffed them out.

Seeing Su Yun, they immediately came up asking for autographs and photos!

Little Fatty Wang Fan was cast aside.

He felt so wronged: It's over, My Brother is no longer pure!

"Sigh..."

With great difficulty, they took a photo and saw off the last netizen.

Su Yun felt mentally exhausted: "It looks like I'll have to wear a mask when going out in the future."

He finally understood the difficulty of being a celebrity or an internet star.

Wang Fan "clacked" as he picked up the iron arm grabber.

He tossed a glass water cup into the basket on Su Yun's back... "Brother, I found a cup! We can wash it and use it!"

"We don't have a cup to drink water from anyway!"

Su Yun: "..."

"Fatty, can you stop embarrassing me?"

"There are over a million people in our livestream room..."

— — [Pfft haha! It's fine! We're all robots!]

— — [Please continue your performance!]

— — [He picks up cups too? Right, usually when I find a glass cup, I pick it up too. It's great for planting flowers at home!]

— — [D*mn! The car wheel is pressing on my face again, is it? Get! Off!]

... Hearing this, Wang Fan grinned: "It's okay, Brother."

"A find is a find..."

Su Yun truly couldn't understand.

He asked as they walked: "Fatty, do you even have a girlfriend?"

"Why are you picking up this stuff?"

"It's been used by others, how dirty is that."

"Throw it away. I'll buy you a few new ones, okay?"

Wang Fan shook his head.

"Brother... you don't understand..."

"We should save where we can, and spend where we should..."

"Besides, who told you I don't have a girlfriend?"

Su Yun said: "The five-fingered maiden doesn't count!"

"Brother, look at how pathetic you are..."

"Hmm???"

Seeing that Su Yun was about to hit him.

Wang Fan immediately surrendered and confessed.

"Hehe..."

"To be honest, Brother."

"Yesterday, I used your WeChat on your phone to find an online dating partner!"

The one named Bingbing?

The online date, the one full of grand principles?

Su Yun was instantly dumbfounded: "Are you sure that woman isn't a prostitute?"

"Brother... if you talk about your sister-in-law like that, I'm going to get mad!" Wang Fan rolled his eyes.

"I didn't realize you were taking this so seriously."

"Of course..."

"Brother, can we get off work a little early tonight?"

"I want you to come with me on a date!"

"Alright..."

Su Yun understood what Dead Fatty meant.

Didn't he just want him to come along to check her out, and maybe pay the bill?

Seeing how serious Little Fatty was, he reluctantly agreed.

The two continued walking forward.

Checking the time, it was almost dinnertime...

— — [It looks like they won't be able to freeload the Police Bureau's boxed lunch today!]

— — [There's no such thing as a free lunch!]

— — [Those two aren't short on cash, they have tens of thousands in funds!]

... Looking up at the bright sun.

Su Yun silently made up his mind: He'd eat after finding one more item!

By the roadside.

Su Yun was focused, concentrating intensely...

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

Hey!

In his line of sight, there was a black cable as thick as a bowl's mouth.

It was tightly wrapped...

Wow, this thing looks really valuable!

Su Yun didn't say anything.

He put down his basket and tossed the iron arm grabber aside...

He leaned in for a closer look.

Hey! This black cable was quite thick, covered in dirt and such...

Judging by the degree of damage.

He could confirm that nobody wanted it...

Good, good, he was going to make a fortune today.

Rolling up his sleeves, he got straight to work.

Su Yun was already calculating in his mind how much the scrap wire could sell for.

How much was it per pound again?

He forgot... Never mind, never mind. He'd take it to the scrap recycling station later.

The Recycling Station Boss would definitely be happy to take it!

He rubbed his hands together.

Su Yun grabbed the unwanted black thick cable with both hands.

Whoosh... The black cable got longer and longer as he pulled, spraying dirt!

A palm-sized rock, painted white and broken into pieces, popped out of the dirt.

He looked closely.

Clearly engraved on it were two large, incomplete red characters.

National Defense...
