8: Upgrade the super farm and accumulate emotion points
Long Feiyang solemnly handed the codebook and documents in his arms to Chief Zhang with both hands, then provided a detailed description of Zhao Huaian's specific home address, the exact locations of the two basements, and the methods to open them.
However, he intentionally concealed the fact that he had lost money gambling; after all, gambling was an illegal act, and if caught or if he confessed, he would face at least detention, a fine, and severe disciplinary education.
Initially, Chief Zhang was half-skeptical of Long Feiyang's words; after all, Long Feiyang's past image as a hoodlum made it truly difficult to easily believe in his sudden transformation.
However, when he flipped open the codebook and took just one look, his expression instantly became solemn; he keenly realized that the severity of this matter far exceeded his imagination.
Without another word, Chief Zhang immediately picked up the landline, quickly contacted his superiors, and reported the current situation truthfully and in detail.
After hanging up the phone, Chief Zhang tirelessly gathered all the officers in the station and began intensive preparations for the arrest operation.
“Comrade Long Feiyang, thank you very much for providing such crucial evidence. You should head back first. Remember, this matter must be kept strictly confidential. Once we have verified the situation, we will certainly reward you.”
Chief Zhang spoke with a serious expression and a sincere, earnest tone.
“Chief Zhang, I’ve had dealings with them before. Will I be implicated because of that?”
Long Feiyang asked anxiously, his face full of worry and his eyes revealing a hint of unease.
“Rest assured, your report this time is a merit. As long as you didn't participate in any enemy agent activities, you'll be fine. We in the police will certainly investigate everything clearly and thoroughly.”
Chief Zhang's tone was firm and powerful, which put Long Feiyang's mind slightly at ease.
Nevertheless, Long Feiyang couldn't help but worry that the police would trace his gambling activities.
“Chief Zhang, the first basement has two or three tons of grain and food. Could I take some as a reward?”
Long Feiyang's eyes were full of longing as he looked expectantly at Chief Zhang.
As a hoodlum, the original owner had no money; if a large amount of food suddenly appeared at home, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of the neighbors.
But if the Police Station delivered the grain, then it would be perfectly legitimate.
Chief Zhang gave him a surprised look, and considering his past experiences, hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement: “Alright, we’ll send a bit more to you when the time comes.”
At that moment, a system notification sounded in Long Feiyang's mind; Chief Zhang had provided him with 3 points of emotional value.
“Thank you so much, Chief Zhang! You’ve really helped me out!”
Full of gratitude, Long Feiyang thanked Chief Zhang and then left the Police Station.
Because of this report, the officers involved in the mission all contributed emotional value to him.
From the Siheyuan to North Third Alley and back, the whole process took nearly three hours; by the time Long Feiyang returned to the Siheyuan, it was already twelve o'clock noon.
Starting from the vicinity of South Luogu Lane, negative emotions from the people around him began to emerge continuously, wave after wave contributing emotional value to him, and his emotional value quickly surpassed 2000.
After returning home, Long Feiyang spent 1 emotional value point in the Super Mall to buy a barbecue feast and drinks, and began to feast greedily.
He originally thought about leaving a portion for his daughter, but on second thought, he couldn't expose the source of the food, so he helplessly abandoned the idea.
[Zhao Huaian is super terrified, panicked, and ruthless; emotional value +5]
[Zhao Changle is super terrified and panicked; emotional value +5]
[Wang Zhilue is super terrified and panicked; emotional value +5]
...
Receiving emotional value from Zhao Huaian and the others, Long Feiyang felt incredibly refreshed; the more terrified they were, the happier he became.
But deep in his heart, there was still a faint worry; on one hand, he feared the potential forces behind Zhao Huaian, and on the other, he was concerned about the results of the police investigation.
He knew in his heart that he would definitely be investigated, and he was afraid the police would uncover the original owner's gambling.
The emotional value from the enemy agents was transmitted every minute.
Besides the enemy agents, the police officers were also continuously providing emotional value; people like Chief Zhang could provide the maximum of 5 emotional value points in a single instance.
With nothing else to do in the afternoon, Long Feiyang shamelessly wandered around the neighborhood to earn more emotional value.
Those who knew him or had heard of his bad reputation showed no hesitation in giving him negative emotional value like disgust as soon as they saw him.
Some people, because of his abnormal behavior, thought he was going to do something bad again and stared at him warily; this instead allowed Long Feiyang to harvest higher-level emotional value, and his points soared all the way.
Taking this opportunity, Long Feiyang upgraded the Super Farm to level ten.
He planted fruits like mangosteen, dragon fruit, and cherries in the farm, while other crops and livestock projects were set to fully automatic mode, starting to accumulate emotional value to deal with various situations that might arise later.
At four in the afternoon, Long Feiyang decided to head out of the city.
The cultivation cycle of the Super Farm was almost at the eight-hour mark, and he planned to release the two Golden Eagles.
Just after leaving South Luogu Lane, he ran into the Third Uncle, Yan Bugui, who was returning home.
“Third Uncle, you’re back,” Long Feiyang greeted him proactively and warmly.
“Mm.” Yan Bugui gave a curt response and walked straight past without even looking him in the eye.
Although he only harvested 4 emotional value points this time, Long Feiyang didn't mind.
In just one afternoon, his emotional value had exploded to over 5000.
[I should be able to gather enough by tomorrow. If the Golden Eagles are truly useful, I might even be able to buy the Super Gene Potion today.]
Long Feiyang was full of expectation, his heart brimming with hope for the future.
Once outside the city, Long Feiyang found that there were many people, so he had to walk toward a less crowded direction.
As he walked, he suddenly felt as if someone was secretly spying on him.
This feeling of being watched had appeared several times when he was in South Luogu Lane, and he hadn't expected it to still be there outside the city.
He turned back alertly, only to see lush green trees and tall groves all around, but not a single soul in sight.
Long Feiyang frowned, thinking to himself: [Is it an enemy agent? Or someone from the police?]
He knew in his heart that since he had been in close contact with Zhao Huaian and the others, it was very likely he was being followed by the police; of course, he couldn't rule out the possibility that the forces behind Zhao Huaian were investigating him.
Regardless of who it was, it would be dangerous if someone saw him conjure the Golden Eagles out of thin air.
He quickly opened the Super System logs to check and found that besides the enemy agents like Zhao Huaian providing maximum emotional value every minute...
Others, including Chief Zhang, mostly provided 2 or 3 points, making it impossible to identify the watcher among them.
Along the way, Long Feiyang walked and stopped intermittently, but the feeling of being watched never disappeared.
With no other choice, he could only walk deep into the woods, thinking he might be able to shake them off that way.
At four-thirty in the afternoon, the cultivation cycle of the Super Farm ended, and harvesting began.
All the products from the fields, fish ponds, and pastures—except for the new batch and the Golden Eagles—were automatically stored in the Super Warehouse.
Long Feiyang was pleasantly surprised to find that the warehouse now contained a thousand each of chicken, duck, goose, and pigeon eggs.
In addition, the plants from the harvested rice, wheat, vegetables, and fruits were also collected into the warehouse.
Many fruit trees, poultry, livestock, and fish could continue to be raised, and the Super Farm had already begun a new round of work according to the fully automatic mode.
A moment later, the Golden Eagles, Pheasants, Silky Chickens, and other raised animals also reached their harvest time and were stored in the Super Warehouse.
Long Feiyang walked toward a place where the trees were dense, and while the trees blocked the watcher's line of sight, he quickly released two Golden Eagles and a white rabbit.
The Golden Eagles let out sharp “jiu-jiu” cries, and the rabbit made “gugu” sounds; seeing Long Feiyang, they all affectionately rubbed their heads against him.
At that moment, Long Feiyang inexplicably felt that he could control the Golden Eagles and the rabbit; no matter how far away they were, he could sense their existence and status.
