Chapter 131: Victory for the People of Chaoyang
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Zhou Wei was arrested, he was still completely bewildered.
This mass surround and capture operation at the airport had been a joint effort between Zheng Tan’s Independent Regiment and Madam Dong’s General Administration of Harmony. After two hours of surveillance, the operation proceeded smoothly and successfully.
Of course, it had been Wang Ling who had leaked the news that Zhou Wei was fleeing.
There was a large baccarat bar in downtown Songhai city. The boss of this bar was the leader of the Green Gang, Zhou Jie.
Immediately after Zhou Wei had been caught, all the main news media outlets had scrambled to report this incident.
In the bar, Zhou Jie was already completely dumbstruck when he watched the news. After listening to Song Qingshu’s suggestion, he had almost immediately gotten in touch with his contacts, and after some coaxing, had found the right connections to help give Zhou Wei a new, foreign identity and to enable him to leave through the green passage.
Zhou Jie had completely never expected that it would still end in failure.
This website novelist Wang Situ… who on earth was he?
On the news, Zhou Wei’s face had been obscured by mosaic tiles. Seeing him being taken away from the scene by a fat officer who had personally handcuffed him, Zhou Jie could feel his scalp turning numb.
He was feeling a lot of different emotions: there was anger, and also terror. The Green Gang had operated in Songhai city for so many years, but Zhou Jie had never felt like this, like shrimp being played around with in the palm of someone’s hand.
Silently lighting a cigarette, Zhou Jie put a call through to Song Qingshu again. “Brother Song…”
On the other end of the line, Song Qingshu also let out a sigh. “You don’t need to say anything. I saw the situation on the news.”
“What do we do now?” Zhou Jie was really at a loss.

“My advice now is that you should relocate the Green Gang as soon as possible. Even if it’s only for the short term, you should move to the next district rather than stay in Songhai City so that your Green Gang isn’t affected by this incident and suffer even larger losses.” Song Qingshu rubbed at the skin between his eyebrows, his head aching. “I know you must feel wronged, but we must face the reality… we can’t deal with this person for the time being, and it’s best that we don’t attempt to investigate his true identity.”
Zhou Jie nodded as he replied, “I understand, Brother Song.”
At the moment, whether it was the Green Gang or Mo Immortal Castle, they were both in the same boat.
Zhou Jie was well aware that the reason why Song Qingshu was still willing to help him was because Mo Immortal Castle was afraid that this Green Gang incident might create ripple effects that would also impact on Mo Immortal Castle’s expansion in Songhai city.
Zhou Jie was as clear as a mirror on this point. “Brother Song, don’t worry, I’ll arrange for our retreat straightaway; I’ll withdraw key Green Gang members from Songhai city within two days.”
“Mm, do it as soon as possible.”
Song Qingshu nodded. “Although we can’t immediately take revenge right now, there still remains a slight chance of success. In order to strike back perfectly… we have to learn to win against the gods by half a point 1 ! Do you know where the chance for success lies?”
On the other end of the phone, Zhou Jie was silent.
Win against the gods by half a point?
Cupping his chin in his hand, he pondered the question for quite a while. Finally, he suddenly raised his head and replied, “It’s Qi Tongwei! 2 ”
“…”
Song Qingshu pulled a long face. “Of course not!”
Zhou Jie: “This little brother is slow, please tell me, Brother Song.”
Song Qingshu: “Then just quickly tell me the whereabouts of the maker of the stone ghost mask… it’s already been a few days and you’re still being secretive about it? Keeping it to yourself is useless, trust me…”

…
This Weibo battle centered around the issue of “groping” eventually ended with Father Wang’s victory.
In the end, not only had the opponent been defeated by Father Wang, he had also died with one flick of a finger from Father Wang’s most powerful fan.
On May 28th, the fifth Friday after the start of the semester, Wang Ling read the Cultivation News Morning Post from top to bottom.
The first article: Complete victory for the mysterious power from the east behind Wang Situ. What was the real reason behind it? Download the Weibo app to find out…
The second article: A part-timer has performed an outstanding service for society once again! Experienced Officer Wang personally arrested case suspect Zhou. In an interview, experienced Officer Wang pragmatically said it was all due to the people’s efforts!
The third article: Yesterday, the pursuit and interception efforts by the masses and a group of cats led to the capture of suspect Zhou, wanted nationwide for groping, at Dahuang International Airport. Experts say that this group of people and cats are very likely to be descendents of Chaoyang city inhabitants… 3
Wang Ling: “…”
…
When Wang Ling got to school in the morning, the talk today was almost all about that arrest at the airport on Thursday. Because of Father Wang, the groping case had continued to ferment in the last two days, until the entire nation knew about it.
Nobody knew where Dopey Guo had learned the news, but he started to earnestly spread the gossip around in class. “Do you know, it’s rumored that the suspect arrested in the groping case has a powerful background; his brother is the leader of Songhai city’s largest underground gang, Green Gang. He has godly connections! Just a little bit further and he would have escaped through the green passage at the airport!”
Super Chen frowned. “Even with such a background he hadn’t been able to run, and the local government is keeping a strict eye on this issue. Doesn’t this prove that there’s an even more powerful person sitting behind Guru Wang Situ?”
Feather Lin: “Why talk about such drivel so early in the morning?! Anyway, I’m more interested in the kind of punishment which that person will receive. Wouldn’t he just be detained for a while?”
Lotus Sun shook her head and said, “This incident has caused quite an uproar. This person probably won’t get out for several years. Last night, the local government actually gave our Huaguo Water Curtain Group notice and requested that we push out a pepper spray for women, in line with the government’s promotion of a nationwide anti-pervert agenda.”
Feather Lin abruptly looked a little disappointed. “That’s all? I figured that this guy’s Tower of Babel would be chopped off!”
Everybody: “…” Too f**king savage!
At this point in the group’s discussion, Dopey Guo suddenly interrupted them. “I have a video of the arrest made in the airport yesterday. Those who want it can look for me. It’s fifty yuan a copy, a fair bargain!”
After he said this, the whole class was dead silent. Seeing that nobody was paying him any attention, Dopey Guo was a little embarrassed.
However, Master of Dopey was Master of Dopey. He immediately grabbed hold of Little Peanut, who was collecting homework, and tried to dispel his embarrassment. “Classmate Su Xiao, I know you’re interested in my video, want to buy it?”
Little Peanut pulled his neck back and when he struggled free of Dopey Guo’s unexpected bearhug, he looked extremely frustrated.
Startled by this expression, Dopey Guo immediately loosened his grip. “I’m just selling a video, you don’t have to be so unhappy about it, right?!”
Little Peanut shook his head. “No, I was just thinking, why would I be targeted by someone selling videos…”
Dopey Guo: “…”
Everyone: “…”

The Yes-Mage
Plenty of people have stopped and asked what it'd be like to simply have everything, and Sylvain Henry Camille Johansson was no different. He was a man who had a lot of things going on, with a name that'd make a supervillain blush and a family who'd make even the useless of their rank into someone important. It was a shame, then, that he was slapped with a dreadfully unfortunate condition that kept him from living up to any of those already low expectations. Stuck living a life where magic is everywhere while he's left working with nothing more than a moderate intellect, a little bit of whatever influence he could get from his family, and a lifetime's practice at making himself the ideal subordinate for his bosses' boss, Vane was still beating the odds and slowly working his way up in the world. When the cunning yes-man finally got a chance to really make a name for himself, he leapt at the offer, taking his first real step onto a road he knew he was always meant to walk. His goal? Nothing less than finding out why he and too many other unfortunate souls are barred from the wonderful world of the higher energies, and with any luck, fixing it. Of course, life has a knack for interfering in even the humblest of plans, and Vane's lofty ideals were anything but humble; he was practically a walking bullseye for disaster. The funny thing about catastrophe, though, is that nobody can ever say what form it's going to take. That’s why, when it all went wrong for Vane, he'd gotten everything he'd ever wanted foisted onto him, and Everything else, too. Watch as a man so used to saying 'yes' to everyone above him finds himself stuck with the power to make reality itself say it back.

Dreamer/Leveler
Zachary Trenner is a freshman at Burlington High School. Despite his mundane appearance and advanced course curriculum, something strange is happening to him. Every time he goes to sleep he switches worlds. Portals are popping up everywhere, allowing access between Earth and the world of Vera. Now he must spend every waking and sleeping moment getting stronger to fight off the [Instance Dungeons] opening on both Vera, and Earth. Prepare for an RPG fiction full of magic, action, a touch of romance, and the author's own dry humor. When the modern technology of Earth meets the medieval magic of Vera, which culture will invade the other world first? When the army rangers of the United States collide with the members of the Hunter's Guild, who will win? Updates on Wednesdays/Thursdays Cover is my own creation. Tips to reading: This is my first book, so cliches and tropes are used as the base and then expanded upon. My intention is to make it a casual read but deep if you decide to look closer. I'm not a people person, so my focus and purpose for writing this is to explore the world building and magic system, not necessarily the characters. There won't be a villian until the postgame ;) Author's philosophy: I took an professional personality inventory (through a community college back in 2018) and was categorized as a "double-checker." I'm never satisfied with the work that I complete, and never want to share it with anyone. But this book is a challenge to myself! As a rule of thumb, I will only add to the story. I can't remove elements I've already included (unless absolutely, absolutely necessary). PS, I'm a native English speaker.

I Have Even Read the Rulebook!
As all stories begin, Prof died. Yes, truck-kun had something to do with that, but also a bird, a cat and some rebar. When he was presented with with the opportunity in the Afterlife Administration Bureau to be transmigrated into a game-like fantasy world, he did something, no one ever did: he read the Rulebook. Follow Prof on his road to be rich without working, touring a whole new world without a care and witness his realisation, that despite having read the Rulebook the folks living with the System for untold millennia know more about the rules. Important notes: 1, I'm not a native speaker, so be prepared for occassional typos, iffy grammar and maybe awkward sentences. The spell check was running, when I wrote the chapters, but it works in strange ways... If you point out mistakes, I will try to correct them 2, Scheduling will be two chapters a week, posted Saturdays before noon (CET). Depending on how much new chapters I can write consistently there will be probably more but as long as I have leftover chapters, the two per week will be posted no matter what. Chapters will be around 1500-2500 words as MS Word counts it. 3, I did not and will not post this novel on another site, if you find it somewhere else, please inform me 4, The Main Character's progression is slow, there will be no Levels, Skills, Abilities, Feats, Perks and Cheat Powers raining down on him 5, I've put Comedy as a genre because of my writing style not because the novel is a comedy per se. On the other hand, Traumatising Content is there because there is a lot of speciesism - those Elves are not nice people. 6, I put a lot of pop-cultural references into the chapters, try to find them! Enjoy!
