101: Chapter 101 Sister Hong, I've found you!

Su Yun stood up, stretched, and walked to the window to pull open the curtains.

The sky outside had already darkened, and the city's neon lights were beginning to flicker.

"Captain Lei, you'll have to bear with things for a bit tonight."

Su Yun turned around and pointed at the livestreaming stand in the living room that he hadn't had time to pack away. "Be my number two top donor."

Lei Dapao's brow furrowed into a deep frown. "What do you mean?"

"Fishing."

Su Yun walked to the fridge, took out a bottle of ice-cold cola, and tossed it to Lei Dapao. "Since Sister Hong sent me that photo, it means she's watching me right now."

"Since she wants to watch me so badly, I'll give her plenty to look at."

"However..."

Su Yun paused, his gaze turning sharp. "For this livestream, I'm not the protagonist—you are."

Lei Dapao caught the cola. The icy sensation helped his heated mind cool down slightly.

He was a veteran criminal investigator; a single hint was enough for him to understand.

"You want to use the livestream to lure the snake out of its hole?"

"Not entirely."

Su Yun wagged his finger. "Luring the snake out is too slow, and this snake is too slippery; it's easy for it to get away."

"What I'm going to do is..."

Su Yun walked up to Lei Dapao, leaned forward slightly, and lowered his voice. "I'm going to expose her hideout directly in front of millions of people online!"

"Then, you, the captain of the criminal investigation team, will issue a wanted notice on the spot."

"I want her to have no path to heaven and no door to the earth, all under the watch of millions of eyes!"

Lei Dapao's hand jerked violently, nearly crushing the bottle of cola.

This move... was too ruthless!

This was practically peeling off Sister Hong's face and throwing it on the ground to be trampled!

And it was in front of the entire city!

"Are you sure you can calculate it accurately?" Lei Dapao was still a bit uneasy. "If the livestream fails, losing my reputation is a small matter, but if we alert the enemy and those bastards escape, no one can bear that responsibility!"

Su Yun smiled.

He smiled with confidence and arrogance.

"Captain Lei, put your heart back in your chest."

"As long as she is still on this Earth and as long as she is connected to the internet, she can't run."

...

5:50 PM.

Su Yun briefly tidied up the living room and straightened the newly bought antique-style screen.

Lei Dapao sat on the sofa behind Su Yun, his whole body as stiff as a rock.

In his life, he had interrogated countless criminals and held countless press conferences.

But sitting in front of a livestream camera as a "background piece" was a first—like a young bride boarding the sedan chair for the first time.

"Captain Lei, relax."

Su Yun adjusted the microphone and glanced back. "With that expression, anyone who didn't know better would think I owed you eight million."

Lei Dapao twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile that looked worse than crying. "Enough nonsense, start already!"

6:00 PM sharp.

The livestream began.

Because the previous "Remote Arrest" and the "Red Cross Threat" had fermented online, as soon as Su Yun started broadcasting, the popularity of the livestream room shot up like a rocket.

One hundred thousand.

Five hundred thousand.

One million!

In just a few short minutes, the number of online viewers directly surpassed 1.5 million!

The screen was densely packed with comments, moving so fast that the words were illegible.

"Master Su is finally broadcasting! I missed you so much!"

"I heard the Master was threatened? Is it true?"

"Holy crap! Who's that? There's someone sitting behind Master Su!"

"Who's this uncle? He looks so fierce!"

"Wait... why does this face look familiar?"

"I remember now! Isn't this Captain Lei Dapao from the Municipal Bureau? I saw him at a press conference before!"

"Holy shit! The criminal investigation captain is in Master Su's livestream? What kind of dream crossover is this?"

"It's over, it's over. Master Su didn't get into trouble, did he? Is the police here to arrest him?"

The livestream room instantly exploded.

All sorts of speculations were flying everywhere; some were excited, some were worried, and some were just there for the spectacle.

Su Yun watched this and calmly took a sip of tea.

"Everyone, don't panic."

"I am a law-abiding citizen. Captain Lei is here today as a guest."

Su Yun smiled at the camera and then turned slightly to let Lei Dapao's figure be fully exposed to the lens.

"Captain Lei, why don't you say hello to everyone?"

Lei Dapao took a deep breath and nodded stiffly toward the camera. "Hello everyone, I am Lei Dapao."

Although it was just a short sentence, that aura of natural authority made the audience feel a sense of pressure even through the screen.

The comments fell silent for a second before exploding even more violently.

"It really is Captain Lei! In the flesh!"

"Now this is status! Even the criminal investigation captain is here to support him!"

"Master Su is awesome! (voice cracks)"

Su Yun pressed his hands down, signaling for everyone to be quiet.

"Today, we won't be drawing Lucky Bags, nor will we be calculating marriages or fortunes."

Su Yun's voice suddenly deepened, and the smile on his face vanished completely.

His eyes seemed to look through the lens at someone on the other side of the screen.

"Today's divination is specifically for an old friend."

"This friend has given me quite a few surprises lately."

Su Yun took the evidence bag from the table and held the photo with the red cross up to the camera.

The shocking red cross looked particularly glaring under the high-definition camera.

"Sister Hong."

Su Yun called out the name.

His voice wasn't loud, but it carried a chilling edge.

"I know you're watching."

"I received the gift you sent me."

"According to our Chinese customs, it is impolite not to reciprocate."

"Since you were so generous, I must also give you a grand gift."

The livestream room was in an uproar.

Only then did the viewers realize that Su Yun was going head-to-head with that legendary human trafficker leader!

At the same time.

In a dark and damp basement somewhere in the city.

A large display screen several dozen inches wide was playing Su Yun's livestream.

Sister Hong sat on a leather sofa, holding a glass of red wine, her face covered in a thick mask, revealing only a pair of sinister eyes.

The moment she saw Su Yun take out the photo, her hand jerked violently, and red wine spilled onto the expensive carpet.

"This kid... is looking for death!"

Sister Hong gritted her teeth, her voice sounding as if it were squeezed from between them.

The subordinates beside her also looked at each other, their faces filled with a bit of terror.

"Sister Hong, this kid is a bit uncanny. Should we..."

"What are you afraid of!"

Sister Hong barked, "Through a screen, can he crawl through the network cable and bite me?"

"I want to see what kind of tricks he can pull!"

In the livestream room.

Su Yun put down the photo.

He closed his eyes, his fingers lightly tapping on the tabletop.

[Heavenly Secrets Divine Calculation System, fully activated!]

[Target Locked: Owner of the residual aura on the photograph (Sister Hong)!]

[Deducing...]

In Su Yun's mind, countless golden lines began to interweave and entwine.

Like a giant net, it covered the entire city.

Image after image flashed before his eyes.

A dark basement.

Moldy walls.

A giant exhaust fan.

And... that pungent smell of formalin.
