67: Chapter 67 Starlight Media has completely collapsed!

Boom!

These few sentences were like a nuclear bomb, detonating directly across the internet.

This was no longer just fraud.

This was pornography!

This was organizing prostitution!

Furthermore, it was a massive criminal syndicate operating under the guise of an MCN agency and the pretext of metaphysics!

The bullet chat went wild.

"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!"

"I was wondering why that dancing streamer suddenly transitioned to metaphysics. Turns out she was going to perform 'rituals'?"

"Eighty-eight thousand? Is this ritual lined with gold?"

"This is a damn online den of iniquity!"

"No wonder those top-tier donors gift so aggressively. It turns out there are offline services?"

Su Yun didn't stop. He drew an official seal on the paper, then drew an umbrella.

"Aside from these, there's something even more interesting."

"Some people don't just like performing rituals; they also like acting as a protective umbrella for others."

"President Wang, there should still be a few ledgers in that safe of yours, right?"

"You've recorded every transaction. After all, those were your life-saving charms."

"What a pity."

Su Yun shook his head, his eyes filled with mockery.

"You thought they were life-saving charms, but in reality, they are death warrants."

"Guess whether the people you recorded in those ledgers want to protect you now, or... silence you?"

The top floor of Starlight Tower.

Wang Qiang slumped onto the floor.

Cold. A bone-chilling cold.

His biggest secret, his final trump card, was being peeled away layer by layer by Su Yun like an onion.

Those ledgers...

If they were exposed, the entirety of Jiang City would suffer an earthquake!

He had originally hoped those powerful figures would bail him out.

Now?

Those people were likely already sending someone on their way to "handle" him!

Run!

He had to run!

Only by going abroad would there be a slim chance of survival!

Wang Qiang scrambled up from the floor on all fours and rushed toward the safe in the corner of the office.

He haphazardly grabbed a few gold bars and stuffed them into his bag, not even daring to take that most important ledger.

That was a hot potato; taking it meant certain death!

"Get the car ready! To the airport!"

Wang Qiang shouted toward the door, his voice trembling.

He had prepared an escape route long ago.

A flight ticket to Thailand and a fake passport.

As long as he got on that plane, he would be free!

Even if the company was gone, with the money in his offshore accounts, he could still live a life of leisure!

Wang Qiang grabbed his bag and stumbled out of the office. He didn't even wait for the elevator, rushing directly into the emergency stairwell.

...

In the livestream room.

Su Yun looked at the screen as if he could see that figure sprinting through the stairwell.

"Someone is trying to leave."

Su Yun put down the pen in his hand.

"Unfortunately, tonight's luck isn't very good."

He picked up his phone and showed a flight inquiry interface to the camera.

It clearly displayed a flight from Jiang City to Bangkok.

In the status bar, the red text was exceptionally striking.

[Delayed]

[Reason: Air Traffic Control]

"President Wang, there's no need to run."

Su Yun's voice sounded like a judgment.

"The flight you booked can't take off."

"Furthermore, you won't even be able to get off the airport expressway."

"Look out the window."

Even though it was through a screen.

Everyone seemed to hear the scene.

It was the sound of sirens, overwhelming sirens.

The night sky over Jiang City was completely illuminated by the interlaced red and blue police lights.

SWAT vehicles were like a torrent of steel, surrounding Starlight Tower so tightly that not even a drop of water could leak through.

...

Simultaneously.

A red trending topic, with terrifying speed, landed directly at the top of the Weibo Hot Search list.

#Starlight Media Online Den of Iniquity#

#Special Task Force Established to Thoroughly Investigate Starlight Media#

This wasn't just Su Yun's battle alone; this was the fury of the entire internet.

Su Yun watched all this with little expression on his face.

He simply said indifferently,

"President Wang, when you do business in your next life,"

"Remember to abide by the law."

The frame froze.

Although Wang Qiang's current expression couldn't be seen.

Everyone knew that this seemingly indestructible commercial empire had collapsed.

And it had collapsed into dust.

...

Though the sirens faded into the distance, the popularity of the livestream room rose higher and higher.

One and a half million people online.

What kind of concept was that?

Any random sentence would result in a screen-filling rain of bullet chat.

The "remote arrest" that just occurred, comparable to a Hollywood blockbuster, had sent everyone's adrenaline through the roof.

Su Yun sat in his chair, in a quite good mood.

After all, he had gained a thousand merit points.

Even if he had spent a few dozen points earlier to deal with Wang Qiang and those two fake Taoists.

That was just a drop in the bucket.

This wave was a massive profit.

...

"Alright, stop spamming."

Su Yun looked at the screen full of "God Su is awesome" and "Take my knees," reaching out to pick up his thermos.

"I just cleared out a bit of trash in passing."

"It's like walking down the street and seeing a soda can blocking the way, so you give it a kick into the trash bin."

"What's there to brag about?"

He spoke nonchalantly.

But to the viewers, this display instantly pushed his aura to the maximum.

"Listen! Everyone, listen! Is this even human language?"

"Taking down a massive organized crime syndicate is called kicking a soda can?"

"Versailles! This is blatant Versailles-style humblebragging!"

"I love Master Su's 'unimpressed' look, as if he didn't just catch a crime boss, but caught a chicken."

Su Yun took a sip of water to moisten his throat.

"This is a fortune-telling livestream, after all, not 'Legal Report'."

"Always arresting people makes the atmosphere in the livestream room too serious."

"There are quite a few new friends who might think I'm an undercover cop doing a sting operation via livestream."

The bullet chat was filled with "Wait, aren't you?"

Su Yun shook his head.

"Trash collection time is over. Now, let's return to our main business."

"Continuing the fortune-telling."

"But let's agree on something first."

Su Yun held up a finger and wagged it in front of the camera.

"For this reading, we won't ask about criminal investigations or catch fugitives."

"We'll only ask about common folk and chat about domestic matters."

"Dealing with criminals all day—I'm afraid you'll have nightmares at night."

In truth, he was tired.

Catching people looked cool, but it also depended on luck.

If he connected with another murderer, he'd have to use his brain to maneuver around them, and his body might not be able to take it tonight.

He wanted something easier to change the mood.

"Old rules, let's start the Lucky Bag."

Su Yun tapped his phone a few times.

A red Lucky Bag icon appeared in the top left corner of the screen.

"Ten-minute countdown. Everyone, try your luck."

As soon as he finished speaking, the number of participants skyrocketed to five hundred thousand.

These odds weren't much higher than winning the lottery jackpot.

While the draw was in progress, Su Yun leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest.

The bullet chat in the livestream was still scrolling frantically. Everyone was discussing Wang Qiang's pathetic state when he was caught, and some had already started digging up dirt on Starlight Media online.

Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

A soft "ding" sounded.

The Lucky Bag results were out.

Su Yun opened his eyes and looked at the winner list on the screen.

ID: Undergoing Tribulation Here.

The profile picture was quite interesting.

It was an anime character in ancient clothing sitting cross-legged in meditation, with a background of lightning and thunder.

It gave off a strong vibe of 'chunibyo'.

"Congratulations to this friend, Undergoing Tribulation Here."

When Su Yun read the name, his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Are people so creative with names nowadays?

"It seems this friend is also a fellow practitioner, already undergoing a tribulation."

Su Yun teased before sending a video call invitation.

"Come, let me see what kind of tribulation you are undergoing."

"Is it a tribulation of love, or a tribulation of wealth?"
