Chapter 168

~4 min read 622 words

First came the name of an online streamer: Li Sai Gao.

Now, here was another such combination.

What did this mean?

Was it a password?

Or some kind of information code?

Ning Chen slowly closed his eyes.

If one judged only by his expression at that moment,

others would think he was very calm, on the verge of sleep.

But.

In his mind,

all the information gathered over this period was surging.

Arranging and combining that information.

……

Eastern Province.

Donghai City.

Scorpion tattoo.

Micro-sniper.

Three branches located in Yunnan Province.

Golden Triangle drug-trafficking organization.

Transnational crime.

Li Sai Gao.

Descendant of the Northern Expeditionary Army.

A code combining letters and numbers.

Yunnan Province.

Tengchong City, where he currently was.

……

This series of information.

Chaotic, interwoven together.

But, if viewed from a geographical perspective,

starting from Donghai City at the very beginning,

to now, Yunnan Province's Tengchong City where he stood,

on the map, it was a line starting from the east and heading southwest.

Right now, he was in Tengchong City in the southwest.

If all trivial details were temporarily cast aside,

he actually,

all along, had been moving closer toward the southwest.

That was the most essential fact.

If viewed according to this line of thought,

Li Sai Gao,

this so-called "descendant of the Northern Expeditionary Army,"

was also located in the southwest,

or perhaps outside the southwestern border—in Northern Myanmar.

Regardless of why the system provided "Li Sai Gao" as one of the clue fragments to him,

at the very least, this also aligned with that point.

Then.

The combination of numbers and letters just obtained,

should also be thought of in the direction of "southwest."

And generally speaking,

this form of uppercase letters combined with numbers,

commonly seen in library classification systems, takes this combination.

Additionally, transportation frequently uses this combination.

For example, train schedules, flight numbers, and so on.

But the current combination, CNMU9201305—obviously, the numbers were too long.

Domestic train schedules do not have numbers this long, nor do flight numbers.

Then, what else could it be?

Ning Chen raised his hand and, on a piece of paper on the bedside table,

wrote down this string of numbers.

Black characters on white paper, very conspicuous.

Then, he lay back on the bed again.

Continuing to browse the works of "Li Sai Gao" on his phone.

These days, whenever he had free time, he would watch this streamer's broadcast works.

Over a hundred broadcast works.

He had already watched over ninety of them.

He was almost done.

But with his current SSS-level Insight, he still found nothing unusual.

So, it was very likely.

That he had chosen the wrong direction.

But he still decided to finish watching them all.

Tonight, he could finish this task.

Thus.

After watching a little longer.

Ning Chen got out of bed and sat at the room's desk.

On the desk was a newly acquired black "black-tech laptop."

It felt thin overall, with smooth lines.

On it, a line of letters:

【ENVYH171】

But since it was a laptop, it was still just a laptop.

Its specifications, however, should be much higher.

After opening the laptop.

After connecting the phone to the computer.

Ning Chen imported a video into the computer.

This video was one downloaded from the many broadcast works on the "Li Sai Gao" homepage.

After importing it into the computer.

He replayed it.

Thus, on the 16-inch screen, he saw the video in a larger frame.

In the video.

It was still that sunny, simple-minded man from Bianbei.

The background looked like a large dormitory.

Several other people sat beside the bunk beds, heads down, fiddling with their phones.

Li Sai Gao held a wooden guitar in his arms.
