~4 min read 642 words

"The protagonist is gone; what can we still film?"

"Forget it, turn it off."

"Sorry to all the netizens, but Lu Shu has disappeared; the program can only be suspended."

"We'll see each other in three days."

After saying this,

Su Mu forced a smile at the production crew again.

"The program will suspend live broadcasting for these two days."

"Everyone take a holiday; you've worked hard."

The production crew members looked at each other in silence.

This is...

a holiday?

After giving some more instructions,

Su Mu went to the main station alone.

The station director was, as usual, still working overtime,

and when he saw her return, he was stunned straight away,

"Eh? Mu Mu, why are you back?"

"Not filming the program?"

Su Mu stamped her foot in annoyance,

"Film, film, film! What is there to film!"

"The protagonist is gone, how can we film!"

"I'm so angry!"

Su Mu, in her anger,

scared the director,

who immediately ran to pour a cup of coffee and brought it over.

Only then did he ask cautiously,

"Mu Mu, what do you mean by the protagonist is gone?"

"Student Lu Shu he..."

Su Mu rubbed her face hard,

and spoke with a strange expression,

"He most likely abandoned our production crew and went off to do part-time work on his own."

"Went off to do part-time work on his own?"

The director was stunned,

then immediately realized what was happening.

He shuddered all over.

"Are you saying this time he did that kind of part-time job...?"

Su Mu nodded with a bitter smile.

"Yes..."

"We failed to film it this time, damn it..."

As she spoke, Su Mu suddenly thought of something,

then picked up her phone and dialed a number.

"Hello, Captain Wang?"

"Lu Shu he..."

Inside the Yong'an Police Station,

Wang Feng had been extremely happy these past two days.

The last time he solved the Wang Wanjiao murder case together with the Criminal Investigation Department,

he not only received a medal and a certificate,

but his rank also moved up a small step.

One could say he was riding high on success.

But early this morning,

his good mood completely vanished.

First came the phone call from Su Mu,

telling him that Lu Shu had disappeared,

and might have gone abroad to do part-time work.

Then came a second mysterious call, from a number that couldn't even be seen.

It spoke of the same matter.

Su Mu's call was fine,

merely saying that Lu Shu might have gone.

But that second call,

completely confirmed the news.

The pressure hit all at once.

You have to understand,

when he came to the police station last time,

he had repeatedly warned and urged,

telling Lu Shu that a travel ban had been placed on him.

And yet,

in the blink of an eye, a three-day short holiday arrived,

and the fellow had cheerfully run off overseas for a part-time job.

So it turns out he didn't take the travel ban seriously at all!

Wang Feng, whose good mood had been instantly crushed,

could only sit alone in his office smoking,

his gaze upon the ceiling somewhat melancholy.

"What can I do?"

"I'm just a small-scale people's police officer."

"Can I control him?"

"He's already gone; could I possibly drag him back..."

At the same time,

deep within the mountains of Northern Mianbei,

a figure clad in black combat gear,

carrying an AWM sniper rifle on his back,

was moving swiftly and silently through the dense, dark forest.

And behind this figure,

were more than a dozen other shadowy forms rushing forward in the same silence.

The figure ahead,

merely glanced back,

then pulled the trigger of the AWM in his hand.

Bang!

The silent forest was thoroughly awakened by the gunshot.

Among the more than a dozen figures giving chase,
