Chapter 501: Chapter 335 Growing Pains_1
Feng Yi pondered over his explanation for any skepticism he might face during his live broadcast while he was hurrying to this place from where he caught the snake.
Showing off in front of the camera was something he had considered in advance.
He had to change his image in people’s minds step by step!
It wouldn’t do if, suddenly, one day he lost control and shone too brightly, leaving him unable to explain himself.
Being overly ordinary was a hassle for him as well.
Unnecessary actions, time wasted, doubts raised... if he had to deal with such annoyances for decades to come, Feng Yi felt it would be too exhausting!
By gradually revealing exceptional abilities, in time, the things he did would no longer seem surprising to others.
In fact, just as Feng Yi expected, if viewers were seeing such a scene for the first time, they would be astounded.
But for those who had seen some of Feng Yi’s previous extraordinary actions, the degree of surprise wouldn’t be as great.
For instance, the two instructors at the paintball club.
The two instructors who witnessed this scene were indeed not as shocked as the others.
Their thoughts at the moment—
See! I told you the person the Joint Protection Bureau promoted exceptionally couldn’t just be good at catching snakes!
Being able to run so fast in the mountains at night without lights shows he has the physical strength and reflexes to perfectly adapt to the known and unknown in his environment! This is not something ordinary people can achieve!
Such a talented individual’s profession can’t possibly be just catching snakes!
Whether the audience watching the scene was shocked or not, Feng Yi had achieved his goal.
He had proven his point to the host who raised doubts.
This kind of proof was indeed effective; at least it quieted that host.
The viewers in the live broadcast room were also convinced.
Glancing at everyone’s reactions, Feng Yi was satisfied in his heart.
OK!
Feng Yi had completed the task of clearing up rumors for the night.
"That’s enough, you all continue with the live broadcast, I have other things to do, I’ll be leaving now," he said.
After bidding everyone farewell, Feng Yi picked up his backpack and started walking down the mountain.
Some hosts wanted to "follow along" part of the way, but Feng Yi was too fast, often not sticking to the mountain trails and not using a flashlight. They only saw a figure flash by, and in no time, he disappeared from their sight.
"Is this the strength of a Joint Protection Bureau expert!" one of them exclaimed.
"The world is so varied," said another.
After Feng Yi left the live broadcast, the viewers also dispersed to continue gossiping elsewhere!
Though Feng Yi didn’t stay long, he left plenty of topics of conversation. On social media, various hashtags related to Feng Yi quickly evolved from #Fan Mountain Supernatural Incident#.
In the event hosted by social media a few days ago, the online community saw Feng Yi’s glamorous side, and now, they saw another side of him.
Compared to before, no one would think of Feng Yi as down and out; they would only view this internet celebrity as unconventionally brilliant!
The central figure of discussion didn’t pay further attention to the online trends.
Having left those hosts behind, Feng Yi didn’t take the way down the mountain either. He had arranged a meeting place with the Joint Protection Bureau to hand over the goods, and knowing the location, he took several shortcuts and quickly arrived at a spot at the foot of the mountain.
A car was parked at the agreed location.
Two young people from the Joint Protection Bureau were sent over.
One stayed in the car, while the other got out and approached Feng Yi.
After verifying their identities, Feng Yi opened his backpack and lifted out the limp silver ring snake as if he were picking up a noodle.
The young investigator watching this scene was speechless.
Feng Yi handed over the snake, indicating for the investigator to open the bag.
"It’s alive," Feng Yi said.
He could sense the snake’s condition; there was nothing serious. In a more suitable environment with some food, it would slowly recover.
The young investigator opened his mouth as if wanting to say something but ultimately said nothing.
Being professionally trained employees of the Joint Protection Bureau, they wouldn’t take the snake’s poor state, looking almost dead, lightly.
Naturally, they wouldn’t handle the snake as casually as Feng Yi did.
They inspected with more rigor, gravity, and professional posture, ensuring they wouldn’t be bitten by the highly venomous snake and confirming that it was alive and hadn’t been mistreated by its captor.
Feng Yi handed over the snake and prepared to head up the mountain from another location, planning to greet the Bureau’s people and leave.
The Joint Protection Bureau investigator who had packed away the snake spoke up, "Where are you planning to go?"
Feng Yi replied, "Since I’m here, I plan to look around a bit more to see if there are any other silver ring snakes in the mountains. There should be one more."
If he didn’t search tonight, with the overnight fermentation of the topic and its spread online, more people would come here starting tomorrow, making the search that much harder.
And if someone really came across a silver ring snake, it could lead to an accident.
After hearing Feng Yi’s words, the young investigator said, "I apologize, Mr. Feng, but our team leader asked me to accompany you in your search tonight."
Feng Yi raised an eyebrow.
The investigator responded with a polite but firm smile.
Feng Yi said, "I refuse."
The investigator murmured, "Please cooperate."
Feng Yi retorted, "You’re too slow, affecting my efficiency! What’s the nuisance for!"
The investigator was at a loss for words.
To be able to brush off a Joint Protection Bureau investigator with such aplomb, one needs to hold a position of respect within the Bureau! And yet, they had no way to make him comply!
