Chapter 125: 124, Comes with a Buff that Makes Others Cry (Third Update)_1

The reward from the Divine Punishment System arrived, "Host has completed the task. Reward: The next time you complete a task, Tear Potion will become a fixed skill for the host, usable three times a day."

Man, the precursor to a second skill finally appeared. He actually liked the Tear Potion quite a bit, as at least it wasn’t as twisted as the Emetic Water. Especially after fighting Lin Hao, he realized that using Emetic Water on others was something he couldn’t even bear to watch!

If you get puked on, it’s just too damn disgusting!

If you accidentally get vomited on by an enemy during a fight, it’s really like injuring the enemy while suffering heavy losses yourself. Now that I think of it, Tear Potion seems more practical in a fight. With the tear glands bursting, the opponent’s vision goes all blurry; how could they fight me then?

If I had the Tear Potion back then, I could have effortlessly settled the score with Lin Hao. After all, Lin Hao was almost overcoming the negative effects of the Emetic Water; the tear-inducing effect wasn’t too severe. But the Tear Potion is a different story; when those tears start spraying, people are pretty much blind...

What’s the suspense in fighting a blind man...

Moreover, Ren He could brag, "Look, I’ve made so-and-so cry!"

I’ve got a buff that makes others cry; no matter how tough, I can make anyone cry... Ren He thought gleefully. Who would dare to fight me now? It’s embarrassing enough to last a while!

The next time Lin Hao dares to squat at my front door waiting to ambush me... Ren He felt elated. Little did he know that this misunderstanding seemed to have no chance of being resolved anytime soon.

Even if we meet again, it’ll just be a Tear Potion thrown at him followed by a beating; there’s no chance for Lin Hao to clarify the misunderstanding.

Far away in a hotel, Lin Hao suddenly felt a chill. He was preparing to pack up and leave Luo City; the protection mission was over, and there was no point staying here anymore. He began to wonder why he had a bad feeling.

His year had started off rough, not to mention the difficulties with missions but also having his nomination rights mysteriously cancelled. Headquarters rejected his nominee! Lin Hao didn’t even know why, only that Ren He must have offended Xingchen...

But that wasn’t surprising, given Lin Hao’s understanding of Ren He; it wouldn’t be strange for him to offend anyone...

Ren He rode his car home, planning to come out later to do the cumulative drifting task. What he didn’t see, however, was that in the traffic jam behind him, a head popped out of a beat-up car, staring with a puzzled look at his back. That person looked familiar!

That person was the reporter, Yuan Peng. Yuan Peng was stuck in traffic in his old car that he had bought years ago when he was doing well. He suddenly saw a familiar figure and found it somewhat resembled "Knight", but he wasn’t sure. The doubt was because the cars didn’t match.

He had seriously researched it. He knew exactly what kind of bike the Knight rode; he had memorized it long ago. But the bike he was looking at now was definitely not the same.

Who has several bicycles worth tens or even hundreds of thousands? Yuan Peng had made an empiricist error, not having considered that Ren He was now a priority target for TK, who wouldn’t hesitate to send such expensive gifts.

Yuan Peng retracted his head, the light turned green.

He wasn’t heading home, but to a spot perfect for drifting! Not the one in the video!

Having found no leads after a whole day of searching, Yuan Peng decided to resort to the dumbest method: lying in wait, like guarding a stump waiting for rabbits. But even lying in wait required smarts. Logically, one should go to the location in the video, but Yuan Peng thought if the Knight wanted to conceal his identity and the video location was already exposed, that would be the place the Knight was least likely to appear.

If the Knight were to drift there again, it would be too easy for others to recognize him; the recognition factor was just too high. Therefore, Yuan Peng was convinced that if the Knight were to drift again, he definitely wouldn’t go there!

Moreover, in his opinion, people with skills have a habit of showing them off, just like a person with beautiful handwriting often writes by hand, sometimes choosing to do so even when a computer could easily do the job.

Of course, this is just a metaphor, but Yuan Peng knew that if the other party still wanted to take on drifting challenges, they would probably look for places with higher difficulty, and such places were rare in Luo City. After studying the map of Luo City for a whole day, Yuan Peng found only one, and a confident smile appeared on his lips.

When Yuan Peng studied media, one of his mentors had told him something very important: if you want to dig up information about someone, you first have to put yourself in their shoes. Only then can you truly uncover something useful!

Therefore, Yuan Peng had enough confidence to wait at that spot with more curves and greater difficulty, anticipating Knight’s arrival!

In the evening, he added some more to his manuscript reserve. He was just maintaining regular updates, waiting for the right time to explode with recommendations. So, his updating task wasn’t heavy.

When midnight came, Ren He leisurely carried his bicycle downstairs. Speaking of which, the bicycle was worth hundreds of thousands; he couldn’t just carelessly leave it downstairs, where it could be stolen at any minute.

After going downstairs, Ren He pondered, where should he go drifting? Should he find a spot with more difficulty to test, or should he go to the familiar place he’s used to?

Ren He wanted to find a place with more challenge, but he really couldn’t think of any such places in a short time. He decided to go to the usual spot. On this cold night, who would idle around at midnight? Ren He thought that in a big city, there might be someone, but in a small city, there were simply no such idle people.

So he headed straight to the previous drifting spot...

In fact, although Yuan Peng guessed that Ren He wanted to attempt a more challenging drift, he didn’t realize that Ren He had no idea about the stakeout location...

Keep in mind, he had spent two whole hours carefully studying the satellite map of Luo City to find this spot; Ren He was not as motivated as Yuan Peng imagined...

When Ren He arrived here, since the place was rather secluded, he just pulled the Red Scarf over his face and began doing the task in earnest, feeling quite happy that no one was around; otherwise, he would have had to find another spot.

By now, he had no celebrity pretenses to maintain. If a star didn’t have fans block them once or twice, they might start worrying if they were becoming passé...

However, although no one was watching, Ren He overlooked one thing, there were surveillance cameras even in 2006. So after he finished his second day of cycling and drifting through a certain intersection, a video clip of him was uploaded online by an overzealous police officer, grabbing some limelight: "Luo City Good Driver drifts again at night, same old place!"

But even in 2017, few traffic cameras offered high-definition footage, making it impossible to make out faces clearly. After being sideswiped in an intersection in his previous life, the culprit fled the scene. Ren He went to check the surveillance footage only to find, that damn camera was practically decorative in the dim evening light!

Only those high-definition cameras with flash could capture clear license plate numbers! At that time, Ren He lamented that the person who had fled after sideswiping his car must have been an experienced Good Driver, clearly familiar with the ins and outs!

Netizens were happy to see the Good Driver’s drifting again. Although it wasn’t as fast as in the videos titled "Knight," it still satisfied their craving for something new. And Ren He was just happy his identity wasn’t exposed, so it was a win-win.

Only Yuan Peng, who had dark circles under his eyes while going to work in the morning, sat in front of the computer sneezing and looking bewildered!

Damn it! Thinking back on that mysterious confidence from yesterday, Yuan Peng felt like slapping himself!
