63: Chapter 63 The whole internet is going crazy for it: This isn't an invisibility cloak, it's a spying artifact!

The shipping speed of Pinxixi Technology shocked the logistics industry.

Logically speaking, a hit product with an initial release of 100,000 orders should take at least three to five days to ship.

But with the computational power of the super AI Ikaros, the national logistics network seemed to have been injected with adrenaline.

As soon as an order was generated, the nearest warehouse immediately began automatic sorting, packing, and dispatch.

Even the delivery couriers felt like they were cheating; their delivery routes were planned more precisely than navigation systems, with green lights all the way.

Thus, on the morning of the second day after the launch event, the first batch of "victims"... oh no, "lucky ones," had already received those drab, gray courier bags.

Tianhai University, Men's Dormitory 404.

"Third-born, your package is here!"

A roommate threw a limp package onto Li Qiang's bed. "What the heck is this? So light? Did you buy a balloon?"

Li Qiang climbed up with a bird's nest hairstyle and opened the package with a mysterious look on his face.

"A balloon? How shallow!"

He shook out what looked like a gray rag that had just been used to mop the floor, his eyes flashing with an excited glint of "making trouble."

"Brothers, the moment to witness a miracle has arrived."

"Watch closely, don't blink!"

Li Qiang took a deep breath, draped the hooded "raincoat" over himself, and pulled the magnetic clasp shut.

"Swish!"

At that instant, the three roommates who had been brushing their teeth, washing their faces, and playing games in the dorm froze in unison.

Toothbrushes fell into cups.

Phones smashed onto feet.

Because in front of them, the living, breathing, 140-plus-pound Li Qiang had vanished into thin air.

Only a pair of floral boxers remained, eerily suspended in mid-air.

"Holy... crap?!"

The eldest roommate rubbed his eyes, his voice trembling. "Third-born? Where are you? Did you f*cking ascend to immortality?"

"Hehehe..."

Li Qiang's signature lecherous laughter came from the air.

Immediately after, the floral boxers also disappeared (covered by the hem of the raincoat).

"Awesome! It really turned invisible!"

Li Qiang was so excited he scurried around the dorm, slapping the eldest's butt one moment, snatching the second-born's toothbrush the next.

The entire Dorm 404 was instantly in chaos, filled with a joyful atmosphere.

"Quick! To the classroom!"

Li Qiang was having too much fun. He didn't even take off the raincoat, just swaggered out of the dorm door like that. "Today's 8 AM class is that 'Abbess Extinction', I'm going to give her some trouble!"

Ten minutes later.

In the lecture hall.

"Abbess Extinction" was pushing up her glasses, holding the roll call sheet, her eyes sharp as knives: "Li Qiang!"

No one answered.

"Li Qiang isn't here, right? Fine, deducting participation points..."

"Present!"

A full-throated shout rang out right next to the podium.

"Abbess Extinction" was so startled her hand shook, and her chalk snapped.

She looked up abruptly, scanning her surroundings.

The area by the podium was empty; there wasn't even a ghost of a shadow.

"Who? Who is speaking?"

"Teacher, I'm right here."

The voice rang out again, closer this time; she could even feel someone breathing into her ear.

"Ahhh!!!"

"Abbess Extinction" let out a scream, and her lesson plans scattered all over the floor.

The whole class stared at the podium, stunned.

A piece of white chalk was eerily suspended in mid-air, then automatically wrote two big characters on the blackboard: [Present!]

"Ghost!!!"

The classroom exploded.

Timid girls scrambled under their desks, while bold boys pulled out their phones to film frantically.

And the culprit, Li Qiang, was hiding inside the invisibility cloak, laughing so hard he almost lost his breath.

The joy of 9.9 yuan is just that simple and unadorned.

At the same time.

In an office building of a certain major internet company.

"Wang Xiaoer! Where are you?!"

The department manager stood in front of the workstation, face dark, roaring, "Gone to take a paid poop again? Forget about this month's perfect attendance bonus!"

The workstation was empty.

Only a computer screen was still on, with a game running.

The manager was so angry he was about to pull the power plug when he suddenly felt someone tap his shoulder.

"Who?!"

The manager turned around abruptly.

Behind him was just air.

"Manager, I'm right here."

Wang Xiaoer's voice came from the workstation.

The manager turned back and discovered with horror that the empty ergonomic chair was slowly spinning.

The bag of chips that had just been opened on the desk was floating up piece by piece, and in mid-air, a "crunch, crunch" chewing sound was heard before they disappeared.

Immediately after, the bottle of soda also floated up, tilted, and the liquid drew an arc in the air before vanishing into the void.

"Burp—"

A satisfied belch came from the air.

The manager's legs began to shake, his face deathly pale.

"There... there's a ghost!"

He screamed, scrambling toward the elevator, losing a shoe in the process.

And the "invisible man" Wang Xiaoer remained calmly sitting at his workstation, chewing chips and continuing to play his game.

"That's it? Scared already?"

"Overtime in the future? Doesn't exist. If the boss can't even see me, how can they make me work overtime?"

As more and more buyer review videos were uploaded to the internet, the entire internet of the Dragon Kingdom completely boiled over.

The top ten on the trending list were all about this 9.9 yuan free-shipping raincoat.

[#IsThisGodJiang'sRaincoat?] [#TheWholeInternetIsMeetingInvisiblePeople] [#BossScaredCrazy]

Originally, the tone was quite joyful, full of various pranks and funny videos.

But gradually, as some perverted netizens let their imaginations run wild, the tone in the comment section began to race towards an indescribable direction.

"Brothers, I have a bold idea..."

"The guy above, is your idea in the criminal code?"

"Let's be real, since it can turn you invisible, can you... enter the women's bathhouse?"

"I thought of that too! Holy crap, this is basically a voyeur's tool!"

"Forget it, God Jiang said it reveals itself when it meets water! The bathhouse is full of steam; you'll be revealed the moment you go in!"

"That's even more exciting! Revealing yourself in public, instant social death, just thinking about it is thrilling!"

"Even if you don't go to the bathhouse, going to the women's changing room is fine, right? Going to the women's restroom is fine, right?"

Once such remarks appeared, the female netizens who were originally just watching the fun instantly freaked out.

Panic began to spread.

"Too scary! Who will dare to use public restrooms in the future?"

"Exactly! What if there's an invisible person standing next to you watching you? Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle!"

"Strongly demand to ban this thing! It's a tool for crime!"

"Call the police! Must call the police! This seriously violates privacy!"

Tianhai City Public Security Bureau, Emergency Call Center.

On this day, the young lady operators' throats were hoarse from yelling.

The phone rang incessantly, like a death knell, never stopping for a moment.

"Hello? Is this 110? I want to report a crime! A thief broke into my house! But I can't see anyone! But the sausages in my fridge are automatically disappearing!"

"Officer, help! I was using the restroom in the park, and I felt someone blowing air next to me, but when I turned around, there was nothing!"

"Hello! I'm reporting! There's a monster with only a head floating, riding a shared bike on the road! It scared my grandma until she fainted!"

"Officer! Catch a pervert! Just now in the changing room, I felt like I touched someone's butt, but there was clearly no one there!"

Deputy Bureau Chief Zhang Dapao, who was in charge of public security, looked at the thick stack of police reports in his hand and felt like all his hair was going to fall out.

"What the f*ck is all this nonsense?!"

He slammed his teacup onto the table. "Invisible people? Haunted? Did millions of people in Tianhai City collectively hallucinate?"

"Chief..."

A junior officer next to him held up a phone, trembling as he handed it over. "It's not a hallucination. Look at this trending topic..."

Zhang Dapao took the phone and glanced at the pinned [9.9 Yuan Invisibility Cloak] video.

Seeing Jiang Chen in the video with only his head remaining while drinking cola, Zhang Dapao's blood pressure instantly soared to 280.

"Jiang Chen? It's him again?!"

"Last time it was fishing for an aircraft carrier, and that was at sea!"

"This time, he's actually selling this anti-human gadget to ordinary people?! And selling it for 9.9 yuan?!"

Zhang Dapao clutched his chest, feeling his angina acting up.

This isn't an invisibility cloak!

This is clearly giving every criminal in the city a trial card for an "invisibility cheat"!

How is law and order going to be managed in the future?

Surveillance is all blind! The police are all useless!

"Get the car ready!"

Zhang Dapao slammed his hat onto his head and roared through gritted teeth: "Go to Yunding Villa!"

"I want to ask this Consultant Jiang, does he want to do scientific research, or does he want to turn our Tianhai City into Gotham City!"

"If he doesn't give me an explanation today, I'm not leaving his house!"
