Chapter 73: Hero’s Humiliation: Captured.AVI
“Damn it, Yi Ning, what the hell are you trying to pull this ti?!”
Lu Zheng hurriedly crouched back into the hot spring, only his head peeking above the surface.
Seeing the caras all around, he started to panic.
Judging by their status, those caras were undoubtedly live.
“Hehehe~”
Yi Ning curled her lips into a smile, gazing at the shrinking Lu Zheng in the hot spring with pure joy on her face.
“What am I up to~♪”
She deliberately dragged out the note, raising her right hand while looking at him mockingly.
Only after thoroughly savoring the panic displayed on Lu Zheng’s pixel screen did she lift the remote control again and press a button.
The ground beside the hot spring suddenly split open, and a giant screen rose up.
The screen lit up, displaying Lu Zheng huddled in the hot spring, motionless, along with several colorful bullet comnts popping up simultaneously.
「Can you even broadcast this?」
「Just ca from the hopage, what’s going on here?」
As Lu Zheng watched the increasing number of bullet comnts on the screen, the emoticon on his pixel display shifted from panic to terror.
Whoa, whoa—no way?
Could it be that this lunatic actually…
As if reading his thoughts, Yi Ning broke into a maniacal grin.
To ensure the viewers in the stream could hear her clearly, she even thoughtfully pulled a mic from her pocket and clipped it to the collar of her lab coat.
“That’s right, just as you guessed—I hacked into Tiger Shark Live and broadcast your heroic figure right to the hopage the mont the screen rose!”
“If you’re fine facing , how about everyone else? Can you show your pathetic side to the viewers in the stream?”
Yi Ning ford a small gesture with her thumb and index finger and flashed Lu Zheng a taunting smile.
It’s greatness, damn it.
Lu Zheng nearly erupted.
But rembering his character setting as a silent type, he took a deep breath and swallowed the curse words that had reached his throat.
Since Lu Zheng wouldn’t speak, Yi Ning’s performance energy flared up even more.
She looked at the bullet comnts full of questions on the screen and repeated the script she’d already gone through multiple tis.
“So it’s beyond doubt—you’ve been trapped in the hot spring, Pixel Mask! Just sit tight and enjoy it, and watch helplessly as I carry out my evil plan for today!”
「Is this fighting a mber of an evil organization?」
「Looks more like he’s been captured by one, honestly.」
「Is it just , or does the evil lady’s voice sound really nice?」
「So the hero on screen is actually naked right now?」
With Yi Ning’s words, the number of bullet comnts instantly surged.
No surprise—this kind of trap, threatening social death, was despicable.
But as the victim, Lu Zheng’s expression on the pixel screen gradually shifted from terror back to calm.
The Tiger Shark Live platform Yi Ning had hacked was under the control of the Hero Association.
No matter what, it was an important publicity channel—the folks at the Association weren’t incompetent, and a stream like this couldn’t possibly last long.
In a few more minutes, soone would surely shut it down.
Even the viewers in the chat were realizing that, calling for the moderators to step in.
「Where’s the mod? Soone shut this down!」
「Moderator arriving in 30 seconds.」
But despite the bullet comnts, Yi Ning’s face showed no sign of panic.
She simply stood off-cara with her arms crossed, exuding an air of total control as she looked at Lu Zheng.
Ti ticked by as the two locked in a standoff.
And yet, the stream showed no signs of being taken down.
Lu Zheng started to feel anxious.
So of the comnts began showing concern as well.
「What’s the mod doing?」
Urging comnts began flooding in.
“Hehehe~”
Yi Ning let out a triumphant laugh, her face saying it all: everything is under control.
She pointed at Lu Zheng.
“Your next line is—‘Why hasn’t the mod shown up yet?’”
“……”
Though Yi Ning nailed the setup, Lu Zheng didn’t play along.
He was still sticking to his “cool and silent” persona.
But deep down, he really was thinking just that.
Ordinarily, Yi Ning’s stream would’ve been taken down by now.
How was she holding on for this long?
“Sigh…”
Yi Ning let out a dramatic sigh.
Her expression was filled with annoyance.
“Hey, are you not even going to argue back a little?”
“You’re no fun at all.”
“Co on, at least say sothing, will you? You’re making this feel like a one-person show.”
Lu Zheng remained silent.
The more the enemy wanted it, the more he’d resist!
Yi Ning rolled her eyes at him.
Then, as if she’d suddenly had a bright idea, her eyes spun mischievously.
Clearly, sothing bad was brewing.
“Whatever.”
She waved her hand dramatically at Lu Zheng.
“Don’t bother waiting around—unless I end the stream myself, no one has permission to cut off!”
She turned to Lu Zheng again, a plan already ford in her mind.
Want to keep acting all aloof?
No way!
Yi Ning curled her lips and raised her brow, her gaze toward Lu Zheng filled with pity.
In a place with so many onlookers, she had a hundred ways to make him speak.
But since they’d been archenemies for so long, Yi Ning decided to give him one last chance.
“Are you really not going to say a word?”
A final ultimatum.
Unfortunately, Lu Zheng didn’t take the opportunity.
Still silent.
“What a sha~”
Yi Ning shook her head dramatically.
But the smirk tugging at her lips gave away her real feelings.
Not talking? Great. That gave her an excuse to cause more chaos.
“Hey, everyone.”
Yi Ning turned her head toward the giant screen filled with bullet comnts.
“The guy sitting in the water can actually talk~ It’s just that, due to certain circumstances, he hasn’t been speaking~”
She paused deliberately, waiting for chat reactions.
「Did he get injured during a mission?」
「So people just aren’t talkative, maybe?」
「What I hate most are people who only tell half the story.」
Once all the viewers’ attention had shifted to the topic, Yi Ning continued.
“It’s nothing serious—just that our dear hero has a little bit of a, uh, thing~”
Lu Zheng suddenly had a bad feeling.
“Hmph!”
“Injured? Shy? Let’s be real—this guy’s just a mid—”
“Shut up!”
Before Yi Ning could utter that forbidden three-syllable word, Lu Zheng finally lost his patience and shouted to cut her off.
“Oh? Did soone say sothing just now? What was that?”
Yi Ning deliberately acted like she hadn’t heard a thing.
She even cupped her hand to her ear, putting on a serious listening face.
Watching Yi Ning ham it up in front of him, Lu Zheng’s pixel screen displayed a clearly annoyed emoticon.
“Shut the hell up, you hag!”
