Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

Chapter 173: Chapter 135: The Exploding Internet, Zhang Beixing’s Scheme Exposed (Three in One)

...

When Superintendent Bai showed his confusion, it wasn’t because there was a problem with him. Instead, he felt there was something very wrong with Zhang Beixing.

”What the hell? Repeat your ID for me,” Superintendent Bai demanded, turning to Zhang Beixing with an utterly bewildered expression, wondering if he’d misheard.

”I said my ID is ’Shishi Quality Single Male/185/18’,” Zhang Beixing repeated, uttering the incredibly bizarre username.

Instantly, Superintendent Bai’s face took on an expression like an old man utterly baffled by a smartphone. Looking at Zhang Beixing, he suddenly, for some unknown reason, felt the urge to whip out his handcuffs and arrest him.

This kid... ’Quality Single Male,’ huh? Think you’re throwing some kind of wild, exclusive party here, do you?!

”Change that username, then we’ll talk,” Superintendent Bai said. ”We’re the Shishi Police Department, representing the authorities. While we can be a bit playful, your username is somewhat...”

Offensive to public decency!

Superintendent Bai didn’t say those words aloud, but everyone present understood his meaning.

Hearing this, Zhang Beixing pursed his lips. What a pain, he grumbled internally. Nevertheless, he obediently lowered his head and fiddled with his phone.

It didn’t take long for him to change his ID. ”Zhang Beixing, that’s my name,” he told Superintendent Bai, having changed his Douyin username to his real name. ”You can just @me with that from now on.”

Hearing this, Superintendent Bai pulled out his phone and searched. After confirming with Zhang Beixing that the account was correct, he left with Li Shuo and Coroner Xing, returning to the station to work on releasing the announcement.

Not long after Superintendent Bai and the others left, Liu Yi glanced at the time, realizing that in just that short while, it had become nearly 8:00 PM. Liu Yi then inquired about Zhang Beixing’s condition and, after learning he was fine, also left.

The once-bustling hospital room suddenly became quiet. Zhang Beixing glanced at the three women chatting nearby but said nothing. He simply opened Douyin and leisurely began scrolling.

「...」

The Shishi police acted swiftly. By around 8:40 PM, they had produced the video and released it across the internet.

Zhang Beixing clicked through after receiving an @mention notification from Douyin. What he saw were three videos posted by the official Shishi Police Department account.

The first video detailed how, on that day, the Shishi police, with the help of a concerned citizen, had successfully cracked a major human trafficking case.

The second video showed Zhang Beixing, his face pixelated, bravely battling the traffickers.

The third video showed the rescued children being reunited with their families.

Once released, these videos immediately caused a huge stir online. Child abduction and human traffickers were already highly sensitive, hot-button topics. Now, on top of that, there was a courageous citizen fighting knife-wielding traffickers. Furthermore, this was an official statement from local authorities, and Douyin was promoting the content. Consequently, it wasn’t long before the combined views on these videos surpassed one million!

Among them, the video of Zhang Beixing fighting the traffickers had the best statistics and the most views. The reason was simple: the content of this video was utterly sensational!

”Mom, quick, come see this master! He took down seventeen people all by himself! Isn’t that terrifying?”

”I’ve always said there are Supermen in this world, but you guys never believed me. Now you believe, right? @XXX, @XXX.”

”Woke up with a start! Late at night, actually saw someone take down seventeen knife-wielding thugs with their Bare Hands. Going back to sleep for a bit.”

”Even Master Ye only dared to fight ten at once! This young fellow, though, took on seventeen—and the crucial part is, those seventeen were all damn well armed with knives! Does this kind of thing really happen?”

”If this video hadn’t been posted by the Shishi Police’s official account, I’d have sworn it was a movie clip. Damn! Are there really people in this world who can be this formidable?”

”The nation has Power, the people have faith! Kudos to this young man! (sending flowers)”

”If they showed this in the ’Youth Learnings’ program, I wouldn’t even think of fast-forwarding. Isn’t this way more exciting than those martial arts movies?”

”Seriously! I used to think the invincible heroes in martial arts films were pure nonsense. But after seeing this video, I realize those movies were too conservative! Holy crap, one punch per trafficker—is this like a real-life Superman who takes guys out in one hit?”

”Watching this got my blood boiling! I was so pumped, I stood up and WHAM! WHAM! Landed two punches on my dog. Don’t ask why, just know I’m totally fired up! Starting today, I’m gonna work out! I’m gonna become a beast!”

”Doesn’t anyone else think that what this young guy did was... a little off?”

”’A little off’? Are you even listening to yourself? I suggest the authorities thoroughly investigate the commenter above! This person might be part of the trafficking gang!”

”No, no, no, you misunderstood! When I said ’a little off,’ I meant, why did this guy go so easy on them? He just knocked them unconscious and stopped. Why not throw a basin of water on them to wake them up, then knock them out again, then wake them up again, and repeat?”

”...Damn, are you King Yan himself, in the flesh?”

”King Yan: What’s that flashy thing in front of me, trying to steal my thunder?”

”Satan: I just woke up, how did I drop to number two in the rankings?”
