Chapter 1303 Waiting for Fang Qiu to Display His Scouting Technique!

On the Internet…

This change brought cries of protest from the netizens.

Everyone stared blankly at the dark screen. A second ago, these netizens were watching the livestream!

“He admitted the medicine was fake and immediately asked the reporters to turn off the livestream. Something sinister must be going on. Are they going to do some behind-the-scene deals?”

“Shit! How dare they turn off the livestream when numerous people were watching? Shameless!”

“There are so many reporters. Does Fang Qiu want to bribe them all?”

“What the hell? Does anyone dare to discipline him?”

“Fuck, why did you turn off the livestream? Don’t you have the guts to go on livestreaming?”

Online…

In the livestream rooms, everyone broke out into curses.

They had been watching the livestream for so long and had witnessed everything, but at this critical moment, all the livestream channels were shut down.

It instantly made these netizens even more curious!

Did Fang Qiu find anything?

Fang Qiu must have found something unfavorable to him, so he asked all the reporters to turn off the livestream.

These reporters were bought over, weren’t they? Otherwise, why would they instantly shut down the livestream at Fang Qiu’s request?

As the livestream ended, these netizens’ screens went black.

Instantly, all kinds of speculations emerged in their hearts. Of course, their guesses were all against Fang Qiu. Fang Qiu asked the reporters to turn off the livestream, but no one would think he did it because he had good intentions.

Sure enough…

Fang Qiu and these reporters had no idea about the various kinds of barbed remarks that sprang up online.

In Blackhill Gate Village’s clinic…

“What do you mean?”

After they shut down the livestream, a reporter asked Fang Qiu, as he stared at him.

“What’s not suitable for the livestream? What did you find?”

Another reporter asked.

All the reporters turned to look at Fang Qiu.

They were waiting for Fang Qiu’s reply and wondered what Fang Qiu had found.

And over at the side…

“I found something.”

Fang Qiu told all the reporters, “I’ve learned some scouting techniques. With the clues I just found, I will go after the person who escaped. You could do your livestream, but the suspect who is on the run might also watch your livestream and find out about our action plans. Therefore, I had to ask you to shut down the livestream.“

After he said that…

All the reporters at the scene were shocked!

Scouting technique?

Ordinary people wouldn’t know that.

Perhaps, Fang Qiu really knew these legendary skills?

“It’s hard to believe he knows the scouting technique.”

“I heard it was very difficult to pick up this technique. Only soldiers are qualified to learn it, but veterans will never reveal it to outsiders.”

“Of course, the scouting and anti-scouting techniques are the weapons for the police to fight against bad guys. Not everyone could grasp it.”

“Haven’t you heard that some criminals in recent years have learned anti-scouting skills? They only studied a little scouting technique through books. These people could never pick up the real scouting technique. Thus, no matter how good their anti-scouting skills are, they will eventually be caught in the net of justice!”

“Aren’t you a Chinese medicine doctor? How could you know about this scouting technique?”

“It’ll be awesome if he really knows about this scouting technique!”

“Yeah, if Fang Qiu manages to track down the person who has escaped, it will make front-page news!”

The reporters discussed this among themselves, looking at each other while they thought about it secretly.

“Even if he fails to catch anyone, we can get a stunning piece of news coverage.

“The scouting technique is not something that ordinary people could master. Fang Qiu even asked us to turn off the livestream. It meant that he must be very confident. If he couldn’t find anyone, it would mean he was just bragging.

“Is Fang Qiu bragging about his ability?

“This could also be considered great news!”

Across from them…

Fang Qiu turned his head and continued to look for clues,

“Fang Qiu.”

Suddenly, a reporter came forward and asked, “We have turned off the livestream per your request. But I’m afraid it will give way to a burst of adverse comments against us on the Internet. The netizens who follow our livestream must have already started to make trouble online now.”

“So, how about this: we record what is happening without affecting your pursuit of the suspect.”

The other reporters heard his practical idea.

They came up one after another and nodded in agreement.

Not to mention the netizens, even the news agencies they worked for might suspect them of taking bribes. If they recorded nothing, they could not bring in the news their agencies required.

In that case, they would be in trouble.

As such…

For them, recording the entire process was what they had to do.

After the reporters expressed their difficulties…

Fang Qiu hesitated in giving a reply.

Well, some reporters had begun to record secretly the moment he asked all of them to stop livestreaming. Fang Qiu was well aware of that.

It was just that he never pointed it out.

And now…

Someone had expressed their need, telling him they wanted to record it openly. In this way, it would be more convenient for them, as the pictures would not be blurred as those taken on the sly.

“Okay.”

Fang Qiu thought for a while. Knowing they would record with or without permission, he didn’t bother to stop them. Thus, he nodded and said, “Okay, but just don’t livestream it.”

The reporters heaved a collective sigh of relief instantly.

It didn’t really matter whether they could livestream or not as long as they could record the process.

As they talked…

One after another, these reporters started recording.

“Excuse me, there’s one more thing.”

While recording, a reporter asked, “Can we release a post first? We should tell the netizens that we are going after the suspect. At least, it can appease these irate netizens a little. Or, they would fan the fire. Not to mention you being the center of this news, even we reporters can’t stand the heat of being heavily bombarded by countless netizens!

As soon as he said that…

All the other reporters agreed with him.

“Okay!”

Fang Qiu thought for a moment and said, “Send out the press release if you want to.”

As a matter of fact…

Fang Qiu was sure that even if they exposed the news, the netizens would not believe it. Even if these people who escaped saw their posts, they would not believe Fang Qiu had scouting skills.

After all, the scouting technique was not something ordinary people could learn. It would be more challenging to utilize it.

However…

These reporters did not care if they believed it or not. Any news about the current situation could calm those frenzied netizens down.

And so…

All the reporters called their newspapers and media agencies. They updated their superiors with the latest information, saying that they would be going after the suspects together with Fang Qiu.

Soon…

The official Weibo accounts of all the media and newspapers released the news one after another.

“Following is an explanation for the interrupted livestream. According to our reporters’ information, Fang Qiu claimed to know scouting skills. After he discovered some clues in the clinic, he was ready to take the reporters to track down the suspects on the run. Thus, they stopped the livestream to avoid alerting the suspects so as to prevent them from escaping again!”

Not just one media outlet and one newspaper…

Within minutes…

Many media and newspapers issued the same statement at the same time.

The moment these netizens saw it…

They were quite taken aback!

“What the hell?”

“Scouting skills? Pursuing suspects on the run?”

“Isn’t that the job of the police?”

“I admit that Fang Qiu is awesome in many aspects, but does he really know any scouting skills? If that’s true, he must be totally amazing.”

“He was just bragging, wasn’t he? How can it be so easy to learn scouting skills?”

“He even mentioned the scouting skills, but it sounds so unreal.”

“A lame excuse. Don’t you think so?”

“Follow the news about them, and we’ll know if it is true. I’m intensely curious to find out if Fang Qiu really knows the legendary scouting technique!”

“The beer and snacks are ready. Let’s wait for the result!”

The netizens’ comments came thick and fast.

There was no doubt.

These netizens were most curious about the final result of this matter.

The reactions on the Internet were just like what the reporters predicted.

As this statement was released, various speculations started to decrease, and many ill feelings abated too. Although some people were still trying to stir up trouble, most netizens’ attention was diverted to Fang Qiu’s scouting skills. As a result, the situation online didn’t slide into deeper chaos!

Back here…

“Crack.”

While the reporters were busy contacting their media agencies and newspapers, Fang Qiu was observing the situation outside. Then, he opened the window and carefully jumped out.

The reporters quickly caught up with Fang Qiu. While recording, they followed him closely.

After he jumped out of the window…

Fang Qiu moved forward, searching for more clues cautiously.

He walked all the way.

Soon, he passed through the cornfield outside the window, which had been harvested. When he reached the ridge surrounding the cornfield, Fang Qiu searched along it.

He kept searching along the way.

In silence, these reporters followed at a discreet distance.

After he held back for a long time…

A reporter following Fang Qiu closely couldn’t help asking, “What have you seen? How do you do the investigation? How do you know the suspects went this way?”

Fang Qiu heard his question.

He turned around and pointed to a pile of green and yellow weeds before the reporter. Meanwhile, the reporter also turned his camera toward that place.

At first glance, he saw nothing special.

The reporter scrutinized the grass for a long time. Finally, he stretched out his hand and separated the weeds. Only then did he spot a partial footprint. When he took a closer look at the roots, he found some roots had been trampled and broken.

Indeed, someone had stepped on the grass!

When the trace was exposed…

All the reporters at the scene were shocked.

It had never occurred to them that Fang Qiu could find such a small clue. As Fang Qiu had said, he possessed scouting skills. Well, this would be a stunning piece of news!

The reporters felt a thrill of excitement, and none of them asked any more questions. In silence, they walked behind Fang Qiu and continued to record his investigation

Ahead of them…

Fang Qiu searched through traces like footprints, weeds that people had trodden on, and small broken branches on the mountain.

However, he found no more useful clues after searching for a long time. Seeing this, the reporters began to whisper.

“Footprints are normal for the farmland in the countryside, right?”

“I think Fang Qiu will make an awful fool of himself this time.”

“At a glance, there were footprints all over the mountain. How can Fang Qiu know which footprints belong to the suspects? We followed him all the time as he conducted his search around this area. But if it goes on like this, he won’t find anything in the end!”

“Who cares? Let’s record whatever he does. Whatever the outcome of the survey, we can obtain the latest news to release. As for whether he will become a laughingstock, it’s his business. Let’s take it as a mountain-climbing activity!”

The reporters talked in whispers. Gradually, the process wore out their patience.
