Livestream Conflict-solver: The Whole Internet Begs Me for Justice!

75: Central Special Investigator, ID 007!The Municipal Bureau interrogation room was much plainer than Zhang Ze had imagined.

Gray walls surrounded them, a single incandescent lightbulb hung overhead, and a cold metal table sat in the middle.

It was the typical ”leniency for confession, severity for resistance” style.

An Yang sat across from him, unsure of where to put his hands.

”Boss, this... we aren’t going to be in trouble, are we?”

He asked quietly, a trace of unease in his voice.

Zhang Ze crossed his legs and leaned back comfortably in the chair.

”Relax, we are good citizens performing a righteous act.”

”They still have to follow procedures.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than the door to the interrogation room was pushed open.

A young police officer walked in, square-faced, sharp-eyed, and looking utterly serious.

He carried a folder and a pen and walked directly up to Zhang Ze and An Yang.

”Hello, I am Li Hao, I will be taking your statements.”

Li Hao’s tone was strictly official, devoid of emotion.

An Yang quickly straightened up: ”Hello, Officer!”

Zhang Ze also returned to a proper sitting posture.

Li Hao pulled out a chair, sat down, and opened the folder.

”Name.”

”Zhang Ze.”

”An Yang.”

”Occupation.”

Li Hao’s pen tip paused on the paper, and he looked up at the two men.

An Yang thought for a moment, then said unsurely: ”A ret—retired soldier, and now... self-employed?”

Li Hao nodded and looked toward Zhang Ze.

Zhang Ze cleared his throat.

”Online Streamer.”

Li Hao clearly frowned.

”Online Streamer?”

”The one who broadcasts solving problems online?”

Zhang Ze smiled: ”That would be me. I didn’t realize Officer Li watched my stream.”

”I don’t.”

Li Hao replied coldly.

”I just think that Streamers like you, who dare to do anything for attention, are disrupting public order.”

The smile on Zhang Ze’s face remained unchanged.

”Officer Li, that statement is biased.”

”The content of my stream is about fighting crime and promoting integrity; it falls under the category of positive energy.”

”Positive energy?”

”Solving problems with violence.”

”Driving one hundred eighty miles per hour on the road, taking your fans to watch a live-action version of *Fast and Furious*—is that positive energy too?”

”If Director Qin hadn’t given instructions, you would currently be cooling off in the detention room.”

Just then, the long-absent system notification sounded in Zhang Ze’s mind.

[Ding! Main Quest: West City Scorpion, complete!]

???

Central?

Special Envoy?

Investigator?

Holy cow... His Adam’s apple bobbed, and he felt a little dry in the throat.

This... isn’t this a little too awesome?

Although the previous ”Youth Rights Protection Center - Special Investigator” sounded impressive, it still had a defined scope and a clear organization.

But this current one... the two characters ”Central” inherently carried an indescribable weight.

It represented the highest center of power in Dragon Country.

And ”Special Envoy” meant freedom from the constraints of the regular system, possessing enormous autonomy and discretionary power.

Li Hao saw him suddenly start laughing, and his expression grew even uglier.

”What are you laughing at? Do you find what I said funny?”

”No, no, no.”

Zhang Ze waved his hand.

”I just suddenly realized that I seem to have filled in the wrong occupation.”

”Oh?”

Li Hao crossed his arms, leaned back in his chair, and wore an expression that said, ”Let’s see what kind of story you can cook up now.”

”Then tell me, what is your real occupation?”

”Don’t tell me you’re some kind of secret agent?”

An Yang listened on the side, terrified, constantly giving Zhang Ze meaningful glances, urging him to keep quiet.

What was wrong with his boss? Why was he arguing with the officer?

Zhang Ze ignored An Yang and slowly straightened his posture.

His gaze met Li Hao’s directly. The flippant demeanor quietly faded, replaced by an indescribable composure.

[Ding! Identity information has been implanted into the nation’s highest archives. Physical identity documentation has been generated and placed in the inner pocket of the Host’s jacket.]

Zhang Ze reached out, and under the astonished gazes of Li Hao and An Yang, he reached into the inner pocket of his jacket.

Li Hao immediately grew vigilant, his hand subconsciously reaching toward his waist.

”What are you trying to do!”

Zhang Ze’s movements were slow. He pulled something out.

It wasn’t a weapon, but a small, dark red booklet.

On the cover of the booklet was stamped a solemn and majestic golden national emblem.

Zhang Ze gently placed the red booklet onto the cold metal tabletop.

”Thud.”

A soft sound, yet it seemed to strike Li Hao’s heart.

”Officer Li.”

”This is my primary occupation.”

”Online Streamer is just my personal hobby.”

Li Hao’s breath hitched.

His gaze was fixed on the red booklet.

As someone within the system, he knew better than anyone what this style of identification represented.

It was a level he had to look up to, a level he didn’t even have the qualifications to gaze upon.

His hand trembled slightly as he slowly reached out and picked up the booklet.

It was heavy.

Not physically heavy, but a tremendous psychological pressure.

He took a deep breath and opened the cover.

What met his eyes was Zhang Ze’s overly handsome ID photo.

Below the photo was a line of printed bold text.

[Central Special Investigator]

[Name: Zhang Ze]

[Position: Special Investigator]

[Number: 007]

Further down were a bright red stamp and a section of authorization code that he couldn’t understand.

Central... Special Envoy... Investigator?

Li Hao’s mind buzzed, turning blank.

This young man, whom he had just scorned as a ”showboating online Streamer,” was actually... a big shot... from the Central government?

How could this be possible!

He must have misread it!

Or it was a forged document! Yes! It must be forged!

Li Hao’s face alternated between green and white.

”You... you dare to forge a state organ document!?”

”Do you know how serious a crime this is!”

Zhang Ze’s expression didn’t change; he even picked up the paper cup on the table and took a sip of water.

”You can verify it.”

”Use your internal system with the highest clearance to check my name, or check this number.”

An Yang, standing nearby, was utterly dumbfounded.

Although he didn’t know what identity was contained in that red booklet, judging by Officer Li’s reaction, he knew that thing was absolutely incredible.

Boss... how many surprises do you still have that I don’t know about?

Li Hao’s chest heaved violently. He snatched the document from the table and abruptly stood up.

”You wait right there!”

He strode quickly out of the interrogation room, practically running toward Qin Weiguo’s office.

”Bang!”

He shoved the office door open.

Qin Weiguo, who was discussing the case with several deputies, was startled.

”Li Hao! What is the meaning of this panic!”

Qin Weiguo frowned and scolded him.

Li Hao ignored formalities. He rushed to Qin Weiguo’s desk and slapped the red booklet in his hand onto the table with a loud *smack*.

”Director! Look at this!”

His voice was trembling.

”That Streamer named Zhang Ze, he... he...”

Qin Weiguo picked up the red booklet, confused.

When he saw the familiar national emblem on the cover, his pupils contracted.

He flipped open the booklet.

After just one glance, his expression instantly froze.

The deputy directors who had been talking in the office also sensed the change in atmosphere, stopped speaking, and looked over.

The entire office immediately fell into a dead silence.

Qin Weiguo’s hand, holding the document, trembled slightly.

He looked at it several times, even rubbing the texture of the steel stamp with his finger.

It was real.

With his decades of police experience, he could be one hundred percent certain that this document was authentic!

He suddenly looked up at Li Hao.

”Where is he?”

Li Hao stammered in reply: ”He’s... he’s still in the interrogation room...”

”Nonsense!”

Qin Weiguo slammed his hand down on the desk, startling everyone.

”Who told you to take... to take Investigator Zhang to the interrogation room!”

”That place is for questioning criminals! What do you take the comrade sent down by the Central government for!”

”I... I didn’t know...”

Qin Weiguo ignored him. He straightened his police uniform, held the document reverently with both hands, took large strides, and headed toward the interrogation room at the fastest possible speed.

The remaining deputy directors exchanged glances.

They gathered around, learned the sequence of events from Li Hao, and each one gasped sharply.
