"What if he’s a TV station reporter? He’s just an ordinary person, can he turn the world upside down?"
Inside a luxurious hotel, Lei Zhangming impatiently reprimanded his subordinate’s report.
Since becoming an Awakened, he had shown up to resolve nurous situations for his gang. So what if Wu Liang was a reporter?
Lei Zhangming didn’t care about being exposed, especially since it’s unlikely they would dare offend an Awakened!
He ca to East Pavilion Street in person today to carefully observe who exactly caught the interest of He Zhan, the captain of the official second team.
He initially thought it would be so civilian Awakened too.
But it turned out that the real Awakened was Wu Liang’s cousin, Chen Wang, while he himself remained an ordinary person.
"Boss Lei, the target has left the TV station, should I continue to follow?" A voice requested through the phone.
Lei Zhangming took a sip from his wine glass, swallowed in one go, and said after a mont of contemplation, "Follow him and send the location. I still can’t believe He Zhan would be interested in an ordinary person."
After giving the orders, he hung up the phone.
Looking down from the high-rise window of the hotel at bustling Chengyang City, it resembled a passionate and enchanting lady.
And only those like him, the Awakened, could truly enjoy her!
......
Wu Liang, who had spent the whole morning familiarizing himself with the business and colleagues at the TV station office building, only left after lunch, carrying his photography equipnt.
"Never thought the company car would be so nice?"
Wu Liang remarked, overtaking car after car on the road.
As a field reporter, naturally, he couldn’t take the subway to news locations; that would be a waste of ti.
So, the company provided their departnt with three cars, and one happened to be available for Wu Liang to drive out now.
"Wu Liang, as a news reporter, what do you think is the most important thing?" asked a diterranean-looking uncle seated in the passenger seat.
Since it was Wu Liang’s first day at work, the deputy minister assigned seasoned veteran reporter Li Guoqiang to accompany him.
Demonstrating his excellent driving skills in the city, Wu Liang imdiately answered, "Seeking truth. Truth is the soul of the core of news."
Yet unexpectedly, upon hearing this answer, Li Guoqiang shook his head resolutely and said, "Wrong! It’s living!"
"Rember, in this era of supernatural revival, we are already in a high-risk industry. Nothing is more important than staying alive!"
"Supernatural incidents happen every day; news happens all the ti, but you only have one life!"
"If you really encounter an unresolved supernatural incident, don’t hesitate, just run!"
It happened to be a red light, so Wu Liang stopped the car to listen to his colleague’s advice, glanced at him, with a slightly complicated expression.
As re mortals, they had no ans to resist fierce ghosts, yet they insisted on staying at the forefront of supernatural incidents.
In a sense, this group of people was truly courageous.
For this interview today, he actually didn’t want Li Guoqiang to accompany him because he was different from others.
The fierce ghosts they avoided were precisely the main resources he needed, so in every future field interview, Wu Liang will try to find those supernatural incident content.
Given his current ability, self-preservation is definitely not difficult.
But as for protecting others, that is uncertain.
"Brother Li, if we are really supposed to run if problems arise as you said... should we jump out of the car right now?" Wu Liang said, jokingly.
"Hmm?"
By now, they had followed GPS navigation to a slightly remote area, near the crematorium.
The bodies of the elderly who died suddenly and the murdered woman involved in the case were there, with both families arguing endlessly.
As they were about to reach the destination, Wu Liang suddenly swerved the steering wheel after making the joke!
The car spun wildly on the already narrow road, drawing a large S curve before eventually stopping by the roadside.
Li Guoqiang, slightly dizzy from the sudden change, was about to ask Wu Liang what went mad.
"What the... ah! What’s going on?"
But then, upon turning his head, through the rearview mirror, he saw the place where Wu Liang spun the car. The road surface had sohow beco sticky, like asphalt had lted completely.
The front wheel edges even had parts lted and detached.
If it weren’t for Wu Liang noticing in ti, they might have blown a tire and had an accident by now.
Yet at this mont, Wu Liang still seed nonchalant, rubbing his temples, he said, "Heh, maybe it’s just too hot. Brother Li, do stay cool, okay?"
This explanation was naturally full of perfunctory.
No matter how hot it was, it’s impossible for a section of asphalt to lt suddenly, even lting part of the tire.
Thinking of this, Li Guoqiang fumbled for the phone in his pocket to notify an Awakened he knew.
This bizarre phenonon seed like a supernatural event was happening!
But Wu Liang, however, raised a hand to stop him, squinting with a smile and said, "Let’s get to work first. Anyway, the crematorium is just ahead, maybe it’ll cool down when we get back."
With that said, this guy actually pulled out his equipnt and started walking towards the crematorium ahead.
Seeing him completely unfazed by the weird incident that just happened, even ignoring the car just parked by the roadside, Li Guoqiang found himself in a dilemma.
But after a mont of thought, he gritted his teeth and followed Wu Liang’s advance.
He couldn’t just leave a newcor here!
......
Watching Wu Liang and the other’s figures gradually fade into the distance, two people erged from behind a sturdy tree on the roadside grove.
The tall and sturdy one was naturally Lei Zhangming, who ca to find out what was happening, while the person next to him was none other than Wang Dawei, who frequently visited his aunt’s house for protection fees.
"Sure enough, sothing’s not right, this kid has such a keen reaction!" Lei Zhangming said thoughtfully.
Wang Dawei, beside him, was filled with fear seeing his big brother’s completely blood-red arm.
He had personally witnessed Lei Zhangming’s hand turning bizarrely red, waving towards Wu Liang’s approaching vehicle, causing the road asphalt along with the tires to instantly turn red and start lting.
Even from afar, he could feel the terrifying heat.
"Boss Lei... you attacked ordinary people, won’t the officials trace this back to us?" Wang Dawei said sowhat hesitantly.
But Lei Zhangming just spat disdainfully and said, "Relax, that kind of accident won’t be fatal. Besides, the surveillance around here has already been cut off. Nobody knows what’s happening here."
"The problem now is, this kid nad Wu Liang definitely has sothing up his sleeve!"
As the two of them were talking, they didn’t notice a faint shadow, unseen by ordinary people, listening from the top of the tree they were hiding behind.
And far ahead, almost at the crematorium’s entrance, Wu Liang showed a radiant smile.
"Oh? So there’s no surveillance here again?"
"Mist, you can start now..."
