Chapter 316 Life Doesn't Have That Many Audiences
The wind on the balcony was biting cold. Han Che strode to the edge of the railing and scanned the empty balcony with his eyes.
The balcony was deathly silent, with only two fans humming. Apart from that, there was no one in sight.
Han Che stopped at the window where he could see the corridor and pointed to the ground.
There was a large pool of blood there, which had dried and turned dark red.
A shattered bulletproof vest and helmet lay scattered nearby, the goggles crushed to pieces.
A glaring trail of blood stretched from the window all the way to the edge of the balcony and disappeared from sight.
Han Che leaned out and looked down along the bloodstains. Several mottled, splattered bloodstains remained on the outer side of the wall, extending into the grass outside the building.
"They ran away?" Han Che frowned, his tone tinged with regret.
"Judging from this, they definitely slid down the outer wall." Qi Yuzhe slung his M7 rifle over his back, his tone calm. "This height is nothing. As long as they don't die here on the spot, they'll always find a way to climb down."
Han Che stared downstairs, then looked back down the corridor, a lingering look on his face. "Zhui Yao?"
Qi Yuzhe rolled his eyes, thinking to himself that this guy was really crazy. He had just gone through a tough battle, and now he wanted to chase after a target who had already disappeared and was low on health.
This guy is like a hunting dog; he's addicted to fighting, and all he can think about is chasing, killing, and more killing.
"Why bother chasing him? He's already run away. We still have to deal with that Boss Jin. Are you really going to leave him alone in the hallway?"
"Alright, forget it then." Han Che looked a little regretful. "So, the images weren't cleared? It's a failed order, isn't it..."
Qi Yuzhe's face darkened. "Dude, aren't we here to vindicate the club? Do we really need to be so murderous? Besides, this boss is technically our enemy. Is it really necessary to be this attentive?"
"Sigh, it just feels incomplete..." Han Che sighed.
"I think you're just addicted..." Qi Yuzhe stopped arguing with him and walked back to pick up Boss Jin.
The two walked side by side down the corridor. Suddenly, Qi Yuzhe turned to Han Che and lowered his voice, "Do you think I'll pass after this match?"
"What did you say?" Han Che was a little confused by this sudden question.
"An assessment? Wasn't this also part of my assessment for joining the 78 Club?" Qi Yuzhe explained. "What was your assessment like?"
"Me? Kill Saeed," Han Che said calmly.
"It's not that difficult," Qi Yuzhe said calmly upon hearing the answer, then his expression changed slightly. "A BOSS that can be defeated in two strikes is indeed not difficult."
After saying this, he glanced sideways, watching Han Che's expression out of the corner of his eye.
"It's not that simple," Han Che said calmly, his expression unchanged. "But don't worry, that young boss is easy to talk to. If things don't work out, I'll put in a good word for you."
Seeing Han Che's reaction, Qi Yuzhe looked somewhat regretful. "You were even going to say a few nice words," he said, pursing his lips. "Just don't use your good looks to get yourself into trouble."
"How dare you speak to your senior like that?" Han Che feigned anger, adopting a high-handed tone. "Now that you've joined the 78 Club, you're considered my junior. Show some respect! Or I'll dock your pay!"
"Ah, yes, yes, yes!" Qi Yuzhe forced a smile, deliberately dragging out the sound as he perfunctorily called out, "Senior! Senior!"
Han Che raised his leg to kick Qi Yuzhe, but Qi Yuzhe nimbly dodged it.
He then changed the subject, "Do you think the two of us can make a name for ourselves in the gaming world?"
"Why are you overthinking things? You've only just gotten out of prison and gotten into one fight!" Han Che said irritably. "Once you're out of jail, who will recognize us?"
Qi Yuzhe glanced around to make sure no one else was listening, then lowered his voice and retorted, "We're both map bosses, making a name for ourselves in the player world is a piece of cake, isn't it?"
"Just focus on what's in front of you, okay?" Han Che deliberately adopted the demeanor of an elder lecturing a younger person.
"You don't have that many spectators in your life! Don't be so smug and complacent just because you killed a dozen ordinary players! Nobody knows you!"
……
With all fifteen of the Joker Gang's live streams going dark, all the live streams came to an abrupt end.
However, the heat of the matter and the enthusiasm of people's discussions have not died down.
Countless people posted live stream recordings on video websites, complete with background music, captions, and close-up shots.
People left a lot of comments and discussions under the video.
Xiao Bai, who was in the van, was bombarded with phone calls, and even A Kai, who stayed at the club, had the club's landline ringing non-stop.
In the end, Xiaobai had no choice but to block the incoming calls.
"Xiaobai! It seems they really succeeded!" Qiu Ying, sitting in the passenger seat, was frantically refreshing the webpage when she excitedly screamed.
Under this barrage of online criticism, the public relations crises that Club 78 had faced vanished instantly.
Even though Han Che and his group hadn't come out of Dam Zero yet, based on their performance just now, public opinion had completely turned in their favor.
This is proof of their true strength. Han Che and Qi Yuzhe silenced everyone with a performance that cleared the map.
Although Xiaobai was genuinely happy for them after seeing the overwhelmingly positive reviews, her expression didn't lighten.
As Han Che and Qi Yuzhe displayed astonishing strength and their popularity skyrocketed, her anxiety only intensified.
This buzz belongs to Han Che and Qi Yuzhe, not to her 78 Club.
Although Han Che was in her own club, Xiao Bai knew very well that this honor did not actually belong to her 78 Club.
Those belong to Han Che and Qi Yuzhe personally.
However, these two gaming legends happened to settle down at her club.
He was basking in immense honor, but the source of that honor did not actually belong to him.
This sense of disconnect made Xiaobai feel somewhat guilty and anxious.
Qiu Ying understood Xiao Bai's thoughts almost immediately. She gently put her arm around Xiao Bai's shoulder and said, "It's okay. We have to let everything pass first. Don't think that far ahead. Let's wait for Han Che and Qi Yuzhe to come out first."
Xiao Bai was slightly taken aback. Yes, thinking too far ahead was useless. Looking at Qiu Ying's gentle smile, her nose tingled. "Thank you, Qiu Ying."
"It's okay," Qiu Ying smiled brightly.
"If you feel too indebted, you can always repay me with your body. As your best friend, I approve of this marriage!"
"Huh???" Little White's eyes widened, unable to believe his ears.
Just moments ago, Qiu Ying's bright and gentle smile seemed to have suddenly become so frivolous in Xiao Bai's eyes.
"Think about it, he's tall, handsome, and has an amazing physique. He's also very capable, and he came all the way to our club to help our young boss solve his problems."
"When the club faced its biggest public relations crisis, he stepped forward and acted as a stabilizing force, easily resolving the whole situation."
"With him and his friend, Boss Xiaobai, maybe our 78 Club can really become a club of the same level as the one your old man founded."
"If it were me, I'd really marry him, sister," Qiu Ying said mischievously.
"What are you saying?" Xiaobai blushed and stammered.
"I've fulfilled all your dreams, and he's even handsome. It's just a matter of giving up your body, it's not a loss!"
Qiu Ying deliberately moved closer to Xiao Bai's face, "If it were me, I would definitely marry him right away. What a great opportunity, sister!"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Xiaobai reached out to hit her, her face showing both shame and anxiety.
Qiu Ying dodged away with a smile. It was a bit cheeky, but it did stop Xiao Bai from fighting amongst himself for the time being.
The club is currently in the eye of the storm, and Qiu Ying doesn't want the club's leader to run into trouble at this time.
