After Bystander A Bound to JJ Literature City – CH141

Chapter 141

Yu Zhi’s gaze paused on the item’s name.

[** Ball ** Global Loudspeaker Item]

It was the first time he had seen an item name half-censored like this.

Wait. Was that censorship… or intentional design?

Thinking about it carefully, the previous items he had drawn—One Kick, Hard on Demand, Speak and It Happens—none of those had normal names either. Compared to them, this blacked-out one was practically normal.

Yu Zhi didn’t dwell on it. He carefully read through the item’s function twice, lowered his lashes, and slowly let out a breath.

As long as it could broadcast, that was enough.
A global broadcast was even better.

Perhaps because he was thinking about how to use the broadcast item, the translucent panel flickered, and three options popped up on the item card.

Yu Zhi’s eyes lit up. He could even choose the broadcast format!

Four thousand universal coins for two seconds wasn’t wasted. He’d have Ji Yangqiu reimburse him later—meaning it wasn’t his four thousand universal coins wasted, but Ji Yangqiu’s.

Earlier, Yu Zhi had been conversing with the system in his mind and had spent some time opening the blind box item. Lu Liming had no idea what he was doing. From his perspective, Yu Zhi had simply fallen silent for a while.

After waiting and waiting for him to speak, Lu Liming couldn’t help asking, “Brother Yu, you just wanted to ask me whether I’m going to B City?”

“Aren’t there any side quests about saving the world for me?”

Hearing his voice, Yu Zhi came back to his senses and met Lu Liming’s bright, sparkling eyes.

After thinking for a moment, he packed the empty lunchbox on the table back into the plastic bag, handed it to Lu Liming, and patted the back of his hand.

“Here. Help me throw out the trash.”

Lu Liming took the bag and gave it a deep look. “Brother Yu, don’t worry. I understand.”

After saying that, he gripped the trash bag tightly, put on a natural expression, and stiffly walked out of the room.

The moment the door closed, he looked toward Zuo Feiyang and Doctor Qi in the distance.

There was only one room on this corridor—the one holding Yu Zhi. The guards with abilities stood watch in the middle section of the hallway, while Zuo Feiyang and Doctor Qi were at the far corner.

They stood well away from the guards, heads lowered, discussing something.

Lu Liming hurried over. Before he even reached them, Zuo Feiyang and Doctor Qi sensed him and looked up simultaneously.

Once close, he called out, “Master Qi, Xiao Zuo, why are you still standing here?”

“Waiting for you,” Zuo Feiyang replied, barely containing his curiosity. “What did Brother Yu ask you to do?”

Lu Liming lifted the trash bag in his hand and lowered his voice mysteriously. “Brother Yu told me to help him throw out the trash.”

Seeing his tense muscles, rapid breathing, and look of bearing a heavy responsibility, Zuo Feiyang glanced at the bag.

It clearly contained the lunchboxes he had just brought in—except now only the empty containers remained.

Then Lu Liming began muttering in analysis, “Brother Yu must want me to use this trash to mislead the mole. Like in TV dramas—hide a note in the food to pass along information.”

Zuo Feiyang pondered for a moment and felt that made sense. “If the mole can access surveillance, they’d probably focus more on what he says rather than these lunchboxes.”

“As expected of Brother Yu.” Zuo Feiyang and Lu Liming said in unison.

Doctor Qi: “……”

He looked at the two of them admiring each other, then down at the spotless lunchboxes—so clean not even a grain of rice remained.

Was this really just trash?

After a moment of silence, he slowly asked, “How’s Brother Yu’s condition?”

Lu Liming immediately straightened his back. “That’s Brother Yu! Everything is under his control.”

Doctor Qi hesitated. “When I ran into Old Shang, she told me the bureau is holding a meeting to discuss how to handle the aftermath—including how to interrogate and investigate Brother Yu.”

“The troublesome part is, Minister Yu said he’s going to investigate Meteorite. He might stay at the bureau for a while.”

He paused and voiced his concern. “What if someone makes a move while Minister Yu isn’t there…”

Zuo Feiyang cut him off. “Old Qi, don’t worry too much. Brother Yu has already planned everything.”

He then completely repeated Yu Zhi’s plan of shifting the blame onto Meteorite.

After listening, Doctor Qi looked thoughtfully toward the tightly shut door at the other end of the corridor.

“This move… is ruthless.”

“It might be their real plan, or it might just be a trap to mislead the mole. But even if it’s a trap, the mole will definitely try to pass the information to Meteorite, just in case.”

Doctor Qi withdrew his gaze and smiled at them. “I’m just talking nonsense. Don’t mind me.”

Lu Liming rubbed his nose and frowned slowly.

Doctor Qi asked casually, “What’s wrong?”

“I feel…” Lu Liming sniffed hard and took a deep breath. “I think I smell Brother Yu’s body wash.”

Doctor Qi sniffed the air. “There does seem to be a faint fragrance.”

Zuo Feiyang sniffed too, confused. “I don’t smell anything.”

“Xiao Ming, maybe it’s just his scent stuck on you?”

[Livestream Room H310000: Live]
[Viewers Online: 8529]

[User “Big Yellow Girl” hopes you continue using your ability on your temporary lover and tips you 100 universal coins.]
[User “Ultimate White-Socks Hunk” drools over your ability and tips you 100 universal coins.]
[User “World’s Cutest Girl” eagerly hopes you take the glowing object into your body and tips you 50 universal coins.]
[User “Rich Young Master Tyrant” looks forward to your “repaying resentment with yellow” and tips you 0.1 universal coins.]

Yu Zhi lounged lazily in his chair, propping his cheek on one hand, lashes lowered as he calculated carefully.

If things moved quickly, the mole could learn about his fabricated plan today from the surveillance footage—or from Xiao Ming and Xiao Zuo—and pass the information to Meteorite.

Pid?n had heard Fu Suxi call him “Yu Zhi” inside the dungeon. That alone was enough to deduce that their incestuous couple relationship was fake.

With so many clues given, Meteorite should soon figure out that Yu Yi was actually Fu Suxi.

Thinking of this, Yu Zhi tore open a pack of soda crackers and a bottle of milk, eating while scanning the room for the so-called 360-degree surveillance Shang Yu mentioned.

The room was over thirty square meters. Aside from the obvious furniture—table, chairs, bed, wardrobe, television—there was no visible camera.

Chewing a cracker, Yu Zhi curiously looked up at the ceiling.

No camera in sight—but the viewer count in the livestream suddenly surged, and the barrage scrolled wildly, layer upon layer.

Had Fu Suxi arrived?

Yu Zhi stuffed two more crackers into his mouth and casually inspected the walls and floor.

After a while, the hallway outside remained silent, as if no one had approached.

Yu Zhi glanced at the barrage. Many comments were anticipating Fu Suxi making a move against him. He strode to the door and pressed the handle.

Locked. No way to open it from inside. No peephole either.

Suddenly—

A chilling gust swept from behind him, sending goosebumps racing across his neck.

Before his brain caught up, his body instinctively shifted sideways.

In that instant, he realized something and flung the milk in his hand.

“Splash—”

The milk splattered across the floor.

Yu Zhi narrowed his eyes and scanned his surroundings.

The next second, in the center of the spilled milk, a clear footprint appeared.

At the same time, the barrage went even wilder.

[User “Scarecrow’s Straw” viciously curses you to suffer severe punishment.]
[User “Pure and Abstinent” hopes you are forced to taste the glowing object and tips 20 universal coins.]
[User “One Life, One Love” suggests you continue using your ability so the other party gains two glowing eggs, and tips 30 universal coins.]

“……”

Yu Zhi ignored the barrage, took two steps back, leaned against the wall, and tilted his head.

“Endurance Bro, is this how you stay hidden?”

As soon as the words fell, a tall figure appeared before him.

Yu Zhi didn’t even look at Fu Suxi’s expression. His gaze dropped straight downward.

Though the curtains were tightly drawn, the ceiling lights were bright enough that it was hard to distinguish any fluorescence.

Noticing where his eyes were focused, Fu Suxi let out a cold laugh and suddenly lunged forward, his right fist slamming toward Yu Zhi’s abdomen.

A split second before the hit landed, Yu Zhi used One Kick:

[Step on the light switch!]

“Click—”

The lights went out.

Immediately, a faint, eerie glow illuminated the room.

Yu Zhi had intended to tease him about a small glow.

Instead, he saw a large, bulging mass of fluorescence.

His eyes froze.

“?”

???

Wasn’t that a bit too big?
What the hell was that—was it even human, or a thermos?!

In his moment of distraction, the man’s icy aura pressed in.

A warm hand closed around his neck. Long fingers slowly tightened, forcing him to lower his head.

“Are you satisfied with what you see?” Fu Suxi’s voice sounded by his ear, half-smiling, slow and deliberate.

Yu Zhi tilted his head, lifted his eyes from below, lips curling into a provocative smile.

“Not satisfied.”

“Take a clearer look.”

He hooked a finger into Fu Suxi’s belt, curled his index finger, and tugged sharply, pulling him closer.

“Why don’t you take it off and let me see?”
