    Wang Yun smiled, then spoke softly to the unusually excited Samson on the other end of the communicator.

    “Mr. Samson, there’s no need to be so polite. I’m not only helping you, I’m also helping myself too. This is a win-win cooperation for both of us.”

    Samson was delighted to hear Wang Yun say that.

    At the same time, he felt even more admiration for Wang Yun’s character. In today’s restless society, people willing to help the police so selflessly and take on such dangerous work were incredibly rare.

    His appreciation for Wang Yun rose several levels.

    Although he had promised to give Wang Yun all of his bonus money, that tiny amount was nowhere near proportionate to the danger of this job.

    The fact that Wang Yun had agreed anyway could only mean one thing—his character was truly noble.

    The more Samson thought about it, the more he admired Wang Yun.

    At that moment, Director Zhou was standing right beside Samson. He had planned to wait until Samson finished, then say a few more things to Wang Yun himself. But before he could react, Samson, looking completely satisfied, smilingly hung up the communicator.

    Seeing him cut the connection just like that, Director Zhou stared at him dumbfounded, and pointed at himself.

    “Officer, I still had something to say.”

    Samson reached up and scratched his messy hair.

    “Sorry about that. Talking with Brother Wang Yun was just too pleasant. I forgot about you for a moment.”

    That only left Director Zhou even more speechless.

    Honestly, he would have been better off not saying it at all. Hearing it out loud only made it sting more.

    ***

    On Wang Yun’s side, after hanging up the communicator, he smiled and shook his head.

    Officer Samson really was quite an interesting person.

    Then he stood up, intending to go out and borrow a phone.

    The moment he lifted his head, he saw Big Mouth staring at him with a complicated expression. There was shock in it, confusion, and a trace of worry.

    Wang Yun exaggeratedly patted his own chest.

    “You make no sound when you walk? You nearly scared me.”

    Big Mouth looked at Wang Yun seriously.

    “Boss, are you going to do something dangerous?”

    Wang Yun lowered his head slightly and thought for a moment, but still chose not to say exactly what it was.

    “You don’t need to worry. You know my abilities better than anyone, don’t you? Once I finish handling this, you’ll be free to move around however you want.”

    Suddenly, Big Mouth’s eyes reddened a little. He stared at Wang Yun, his voice catching in his throat.

    “Boss, I know you’re trying to help me, but if what you’re about to do is dangerous, then I’d rather you not save me. I can just go admit defeat myself.”

    Seeing the way Big Mouth looked, Wang Yun smiled gently. Then he stood up and reached out to pat him on the shoulder.

    “Relax. In all this time, have you ever seen your boss fail?”

    Big Mouth thought about it.

    That was true. Ever since he had started following this boss, this man had always managed to lead everyone safely through danger.

    This time would be no exception.

    Only then did Big Mouth realize his eyes had turned red. He quickly turned away.

    “Who’s worried about you? Aren’t you going to borrow a phone? Then hurry up.”

    Big Mouth went into the bathroom to wash his face.

    Wang Yun, meanwhile, only smiled and shook his head. He knew Big Mouth felt guilty. He felt like he had become a burden to his boss, and he didn’t want Wang Yun getting hurt trying to save him.

    But Wang Yun had said it before—he would never abandon a single companion.

    By now, quite a few viewers in the livestream had reddened eyes as well.

    “Big Mouth and Big Brother are seriously giving me mutual devotion vibes!!!”

    “Ahhhhh, just kill me and use me to spice up Big Brother’s mood! I love this scene so much!”

    “Daily screen-licking for Big Brother!!!”

    “I’m so looking forward to Big Brother’s boxing match!!!”

    “Right, right! Big Brother’s skills are so good, I’m really hyped!!!”

    “My Big Brother is here to deliver justice!”

    “Is Blood Banquet really that powerful?”

    “The person above, please remove the word ‘really!’”

    “Just from the fact that those officers have been trying to catch them for so long and still haven’t, isn’t that enough to tell you?”

    “I’m actually a little worried. I heard Big Brother’s opponent tomorrow is Achir. He’s already on a six-win streak!”

    “You need to trust Big Brother’s strength! I’ve been following him since last season, and up until now, Big Brother has never lost once!”

    “Wow, that’s seriously badass!!!”

    “Awesome!”

    “Absolutely awesome!”

    The entire barrage was filled with one neat, unified flood of “Awesome!”

    ***

    At the same time, inside Wang Yun’s mind, the system kept sounding off with notifications. His shock points were rising at an astonishing pace

    Wang Yun smiled.

    He stepped outside and looked at the two security guards stationed by the elevator.

    “Brother, my phone’s out of credit. Could I borrow yours to order some takeout? I can pay you in cash.”

    The guards had already been given instructions beforehand.

    Every request Wang Yun made was to be granted.

    If it was something they could do, they were to do it directly.

    If it was beyond them, they were to report it straight to Baren.

    Since borrowing a phone was only a small matter, the guard agreed immediately. The two of them even rushed to offer their phones first.

    Wang Yun accepted the one from the guard standing closer.

    Holding the phone, he tapped away for a while and ordered a family-sized fried chicken bucket for Big Mouth. He then handed the phone back and, at the same time, pulled five bills from his trouser pocket and tried to give them to the guard.

    The guard took back the phone but absolutely refused to accept Wang Yun’s money.

    Wang Yun knew life wasn’t easy for them either, so neither side was willing to give in.

    The guard said frankly, “Sir, you really don’t need to pay me. Boss will reimburse me anyway.”

    Wang Yun still held out the money.

    The guard grew so anxious that sweat began breaking out across his forehead.
