Incredible Insight: Toy Factory Discovers Swarm Drones

Chapter 75: The Unceasing Flow of Water Causes an Online Frenzy!dragon knight no. 1 broke through the police’s final blockade and sped away, leaving behind a scene of chaos and a group of traffic police questioning their own reality.

But this most bizarre chase in the history of Baishui City traffic did not end with the police’s failed interception. On the contrary, it was stirring up true waves of shock on another invisible battlefield in an even more intense way.

This battlefield was called the Internet.

The moment dragon knight no. 1 initiated its anti-human trafficker mode, countless passing drivers and citizens used their mobile phones and dashcams to record this rare, once-in-a-century spectacle from different angles.

”Holy crap! Over a dozen police cars chasing a black dot on the highway?”

”What black dot? How come I don’t see anything in front? Are the police chasing thin air?”

”I think I saw it! It disappeared under that gantry, and then popped back out! Oh my god, did I not wake up properly when I went out today?”

At first, these low-quality, shaky short videos filled with shocked shouts were only circulating within a small range in some local WeChat groups. But soon, as the number of witnesses increased and video material became more abundant, things started to take a strange turn.

When a video captured by a car’s high-definition dashcam—clearly recording dragon knight no. 1 performing an extreme drift while surrounded by police cars and passing through a roadblock—was uploaded to Douyin, the fuse of public opinion across the entire internet was instantly ignited!

#Baishui City Ghost Car Incident#, #Police Highway Pursuit of Invisible War Machine#, and #A Cop-and-Robber Blockbuster You’ve Never Seen# and other topics swept through, dominating the trending lists of all social platforms within just half an hour.

This city-wide pursuit, triggered by a brat’s online romance, had evolved—without the parties involved even knowing—into an online carnival with nationwide participation and spectators.

...

Baishui City Local TV Station, Station Head’s Office.

A middle-aged man with a receding hairline, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and looking quite refined, was staring sternly at the computer screen in front of him. His name was Wang Jianjun, the station head of this television station.

On the screen was playing that very ghost car drifting video that had already gone viral across the internet.

As an old hand who had been grinding in the media industry for over twenty years, Wang Jianjun’s professional instincts were far sharper than the average person. Looking at the tough-styled, insanely high-performance small car in the video, and then at the deep red ”Explosive” labels following those trending topics on the data platform next to it, his eyes instantly shone with the glint of a wolf.

He realized that this was not just a simple traffic incident; it was an opportunity to ignite traffic across the entire internet!

”Right now, the whole internet only has blurry ground-level perspectives. What if... what if I could give them a high-definition, real-time, god’s-eye view from the sky?”

This thought suddenly flashed through Wang Jianjun’s mind.

Without the slightest hesitation, he grabbed the phone on his desk, dialed the internal line to the news dispatch center, and issued an order in an irrefutable tone: ”Connect me to the outdoor aerial filming team! Yes, the one currently shooting the promotional video for the city! Tell them to abandon their current task immediately!”

The dispatcher on the other end of the line was stunned: ”Station Head, but today’s aerial filming mission is for the Mayor’s office...”

”No buts!” Wang Jianjun slammed the table, his spit almost spraying onto the microphone, ”I don’t care whose mission it is! Now, immediately! Right now! Get our news live broadcast helicopter to fly to the eastern section of the Qinglan Expressway and find that black car that is trending online for me! I want a full live broadcast! A real-time live broadcast! Do you understand? This is a direct order!”

Hanging up the phone, Wang Jianjun felt his blood burning. He knew his decision carried huge risks, but he also knew even more clearly that if successful, Baishui City TV Station would become famous overnight among the national media today!

...

Fifteen minutes later, over Baishui City.

An EC135 news helicopter with the Baishui News logo printed on it cut a graceful arc through the sky, abandoning its original route to film city landmarks, and flew at high speed towards the Qinglan Expressway like a shark that had caught the scent of blood.

Inside the cabin, the young reporter Xiao Liu and the cameraman Xiao Zhang were still a bit dazed.

”Brother Liu, has the Station Head gone crazy? For a trending video online, he’s even disregarding the Mayor’s face?” Xiao Zhang asked while adjusting the multi-million dollar high-definition camera on the fuselage.

Xiao Liu, however, had an excited expression: ”What do you know! This is called news sensitivity! If we really find it, today, the two of us will be the coolest guys in the whole country!”

With intelligence support from the ground command center, the helicopter soon arrived at the section of the road where the ghost car was last seen.

Cameraman Xiao Zhang aimed the lens at the endless flow of traffic on the highway below and began a grid search.

”Found it! At three o’clock! That black car!” Xiao Liu had sharp eyes and was the first to exclaim.

Xiao Zhang immediately zoomed the lens in. Under the high-definition camera, a matte black car was driving steadily but at high speed through the traffic.

”It’s gone again!”

Just as it was about to pass a surveillance gantry, it actually disappeared into thin air, just like in the previous videos!

”Holy crap...” Xiao Zhang felt his scalp tingle.

”Don’t panic! Zoom forward! It will definitely appear again in a moment!” Xiao Liu shouted excitedly.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, a few hundred meters past the gantry, the black car reappeared out of thin air.

”Lock onto it! Cut the live broadcast signal in! Quick!”

The next second, a brand new live broadcast room, bearing the exclusive Baishui News live broadcast watermark, appeared on major online platforms.

This high-altitude, high-definition perspective provided by the news helicopter instantly ignited the entire internet!

Netizens who had been watching various blurry roadside videos flooded into the Baishui City TV Station’s official live broadcast room like a tide.

The number of online viewers skyrocketed at a terrifying speed.

Fifty thousand... one hundred thousand... three hundred thousand... five hundred thousand!

In just a few minutes, the number of online viewers in the broadcast room broke through the 600,000 mark and was still growing! You have to know, this was 600,000 real, active terminals watching the live stream; the audience reached through forwarding and discussion behind them was already a terrifying number in the tens of millions!

The comment section completely boiled over.

”It’s here, it’s here! The official source has stepped in! High-definition aerial version!”

”Holy crap! This TV station is badass! Deploying a helicopter just for the sake of spectating?”

”I can see it clearly this time! It really is a child’s car speeding on the highway! This is too outrageous!”

”Oh my god! It really can turn invisible! It just disappeared again! What kind of black technology is this?!”

This farce triggered by a brat, fueled by local media vying for trending topics, had its event level completely elevated to a new, uncontrollable level!
