Chapter 78 The King Returns
Jiang Feng turned his head and looked behind him. At this moment, a sneaky figure was half-crouched behind him, and the murder weapon had not yet been put away. The figure was still holding up a mobile phone and pointing it at his screen.
This person was none other than Cao Xumin from the neighboring dormitory, room 216.
Jiang Feng couldn't hold back: "Old Cao?! I haven't even posted the QR code in the group yet, and you've already scanned it?"
Caught red-handed, Cao Xumin gave an awkward laugh: "Well, it's like being in a privileged position..."
Jiang Feng's dorm room was crowded with students who came to watch the excitement, but there were fewer than yesterday—after all, most of the students who played Delta Force were sitting in front of their computers, waiting for the QR code to appear so they could scan it.
But Cao Xumin was the most clever. Instead of joining the online crowd, he went straight to the offline event, hoping to find a loophole and rise to the top in one step!
Jiang Feng reluctantly moved the camera to include Lao Cao in the shot, then shrugged at the viewers in the live stream:
"Look, it hasn't even started yet, and someone's already beaten us to it. What are we going to do now?"
"This doesn't count as cheating!" Cao Xumin said, looking at the comments, his neck stiff. "I scanned everything, it was all legal and compliant. I didn't say in the beginning that I had to scan everyone in the group, right?"
The live stream chat exploded instantly, with all sorts of jokes flooding the screen:
[It's not about not sweeping, but about sweeping slowly, carefully, and rhythmically; letting those who are prepared and have a mature mindset sweep first, so that those who sweep first can motivate those who follow. We must also handle each situation specifically, avoiding blind action, and instead sweep precisely, scientifically, and efficiently, using a strategic approach.]
See? Only those who break the rules succeed.
Why can only classmates scan?! Where are our comments?! Where are our fans?! Don't we deserve to be mentioned?!
[Unfair! There's foul play! We strongly demand a rematch! Reissue the codes!]
[Please also send the code request to the fan group! Are students human beings, but aren't we fans too?!]
【Fengshen, I'm your college classmate whom you haven't contacted for many years, but I didn't receive my university acceptance letter!】
【I want to join the group! Why can only students from your college join?! Are you discriminating against students from other schools?!】
The students in the group also noticed Cao Xumin's questionable behavior, and some even went directly to the live stream chat to criticize him:
Cao Xumin! Your classmates are on your side, but you're playing mind games with them!
On the other hand, the WeChat group for the 24 cohort of the School of Information Science and Technology at Zhejiang University of Commerce was buzzing with excitement.
Computer Science 2401 - Yao Tao: @Computer Science 2401 - Cao Xumin, this is unfair! There's something fishy going on! Cao Xumin cut in line!
Computer Science 2402-Zhang Yujie: @Computer Science 2401-Cao Xumin, is this how you play? You'd better sleep with your eyes open tonight!
Computer Science 2401 - Gu Jierong: Anyone want to come with me to 214 to see the real Lao Cao?
The message "Unfair! There's something fishy going on!" instantly flooded the screen, line after line as neatly as if copied and pasted.
Jiang Feng even caught a glimpse of his counselor, Li Rong, scrolling through the app as well.
Immediately afterwards, someone posted a meme of the "Divine Eagle Brother." (Image here →→)
As if a switch had been flipped, a barrage of "Divine Eagle Brother" emojis flooded the screen, filling the entire group chat with them, leaving Jiang Feng speechless.
He simply pulled the WeChat group messages out a bit from the secondary screen so that the live stream viewers could also see them.
The viewers in the live stream were laughing so hard they were practically crowing, and the chat was flooded with even more comments:
[Haha, even the counselor is joining in the gossip?]
[Captain Dragonfly requests to appear!]
[I felt a slight sense of weightlessness in Jinling.]
I've taken off and feel great.
[The entire college's public enemy—Cao Xumin! Hahaha, I've remembered his name too!]
[Aren't you going to run? Come on, you're here to prove yourself!]
Just as Cao Xumin was about to argue, the dormitory door was pushed open with a "bang," and two boys strode in, their eyes like searchlights, instantly locking onto Cao Xumin, who was still stubbornly arguing.
The screen was flooded with comments:
[Captain Dragonfly makes his appearance!]
[Law enforcement officers have arrived!]
Justice may be delayed, but it will never be denied!
The two men grabbed Cao Xumin's arms, one on each side, and dragged him out like a chick.
Cao Xumin struggled and wailed, "I just wanted a barrel of oil, what did I do wrong? I'm a Delta Force player too! I'll be back!"
As they passed Jiang Feng, one of the boys said in a serious tone:
"Don't worry, Fengshen! We've taken this queue-jumping offender away. You can reissue the codes now! We guarantee fairness and impartiality!"
The WeChat group is flooded with this emoji again, this time with a different one.
This time it's a meme of a monkey being tied up. Image here →→
It was so entertaining, Jiang Feng was laughing so hard he almost cried.
Jiang Feng was overjoyed: "Alright, now I'm all behind you, I guarantee fairness, impartiality, and transparency!"
"The QR code will be sent to the group now. It's time to see who's fastest!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Feng clicked send. The QR code appeared in the group and was scanned almost instantly.
Jiang Feng logged in normally, and the group chat exploded with messages asking, "Who's so fast?" and "Is there some kind of shady deal going on?"
Before Jiang Feng could explain, a series of hurried footsteps came from the corridor, followed by the dormitory door being pushed open again.
A figure rushed in, holding a phone in hand, beaming with joy, as if he had won the lottery.
It was Cao Xumin!
Jiang Feng was shocked: "No way? Could it be?"
"That's right, it's me!"
Cao Xumin, head held high and face full of pride, shoved his phone in front of the live stream camera; the screen prominently displayed a page showing a successful QR code scan.
"This is real strength, you know?! Haters, speak up!"
Cao Xumin shouted into the camera:
"I declare Huawei number one in the world!"
The School of Information Science's group chat was instantly flooded with "???", the screen practically overflowing with question marks.
The live stream chat exploded:
Is it him again? Or is it some other person?
Do you think this is a movie shoot? Are you making a triumphant return?
[Jin Chu: That's right, Huawei is number one in the world!]
[Jin Chu: Bullshit! Xiaomi is the best!]
[Jin Chu: It's all so chaotic, Apple is the coolest!]
Jiang Feng rubbed his forehead, laughing and crying at the same time, and explained to the camera, "I can vouch for it, there really was no cheating this time, it was purely because he was fast with his hands and internet speed... Okay, you're the one, log in!"
He skillfully adjusted the game settings while simultaneously calculating:
"And that Director Jin, you bastard, don't think I've forgotten about you!"
"On my first day of live streaming, there was a misunderstanding with Anke, and it was you who started stirring up trouble!"
"I can't take it anymore, I'm so angry! Someone, give this kid a 'silent ban'!"
"What? Your fan club is level five? Level eight isn't enough! Trolls have to be banned!"
The next second, a special effect popped up in the live stream: Jin Chu was giving away Douyin No. 1 x1.
Jiang Feng's expression instantly changed: "Oh dear, thank you so much for my Brother Jin's Douyin account! Oh dear, look at this, it's all a misunderstanding, oh dear, what a mess this has become!"
At this moment, Zhang Jindong suddenly leaned closer, put his mouth to Jiang Feng's ear, and whispered:
"Fengzi, the fan group is in an uproar!"
