Reaching the higher-ups as soon as possible to get more in-depth information wasn't too difficult, but it wasn't easy either.

Mu Chen and Lu Gui had already decided to go through the underground black boxing arena. Hu Yue, who joined later, had an expression that suggested her path was blocked when she heard that they both had joined.

She couldn't imagine encountering either of them in the boxing ring.

Ming Mei, however, had no intention of contacting any upper echelons. Her goal was simple: sell boxed lunches and browse the dark web for information, becoming an information broker. This way, she could find quite a bit of information.

Lu Xiaoyao originally wanted to be with Ming Mei, but Sun Yunzhong felt that Lu Xiaoyao was more suitable to be a bounty hunter than an information broker.

Like the kind of work Mu Chen had done before he obtained his identity, accepting tasks and getting the job done.

Lu Xiaoyao was happy with this, as it was an affirmation of her strength, and after studying it for a long time, Hu Yue decided to join Lu Xiaoyao.

"Dong Lei and I will do intelligence gathering outside."

Unlike the others who didn't like inquiring about information everywhere, thinking it was a very tiring and tedious job, Sun Yunzhong felt that this kind of work was more suitable for him.

He liked to move around, exploring and analyzing information.

However, his skills didn't allow him to do such dangerous work alone. Coincidentally, Dong Lei had already cooperated with him today, so Dong Lei herself completely agreed with the division of labor mentioned by Sun Yunzhong this time.

Compared to the military school students from the Outer Star Sea, who were very clear about their goals after entering the game, the players who entered from the Outer Star Sea were somewhat unaccustomed to suddenly becoming "civilians."

…

Guangyu Star Region, Haiyuan Star

"Do you remember? Chi Yu, do you remember the interview稿 for today's interviewees?"

A ruby-like short hair shone in the sun. The guy called Chi Yu lazily flipped through the content on his optical brain, and physiological tears fell from the corner of his eyes as he yawned.

The director who was checking the script with him was about to get angry when he heard him say, "I remember, I remember. Mr. Long Suo·Haiduona donated to the basic education of a planet again last year. This interview should praise the other party's charitable cause more and should ask around this aspect…"

Seeing that the other party had repeated all the questions he had prepared, the expression on the director's face changed faster than flipping a book.

"Yes, yes, yes! Hahahaha…"

Seeing this, Chi Yu secretly rolled his eyes, disdainfully said, "In terms of financial resources, one-third of the entire Guangyu Star Region belongs to the Haiduona family, the basic education of a mere marginal star... Ouch!"

Before he could finish speaking, the director hit him on the head, causing him to grit his teeth in pain.

"You brat, don't talk nonsense! Show me your professionalism as a host during work hours! The previous two times were fine, but if you're sloppy again today, believe it or not, I'll fire you immediately?"

"Yes, yes, yes, yes."

Even if he admitted defeat in pain, his tone was full of perfunctoriness.

It wasn't that he wanted to be perfunctory, but he really wasn't familiar with this job. Even now, after living here for three days, Chi Yu himself was still confused about the job of this role.

He was the captain of a squad in the security office of the Outer Star Sea Underground City, proficient in all kinds of fighting and looting.

But he definitely wouldn't be a host!

This game is really something, letting him be a host when he comes in!

He had muddled through the past two days, but looking at the director's posture today, it was obvious that he couldn't do it like before.

Being fired couldn't threaten him, but—thinking of how good his in-game family had been to him these past two days, Chi Yu was a little silent.

The owner of the original body came from an ordinary, even poor, family. He relied on scholarships to get to the position of host at the Haiyuan Star Radio and Television Station step by step, and he had always been the pride of his family.

Thinking of the original body's relatives, Chi Yu, who had never experienced any warmth of family affection since birth, couldn't extricate himself from everything he had felt in the game these past two days.

He was even more unwilling to make them sad. In comparison, he couldn't help but whisper a swear word that the original body would never have said.

"I'm going to get some water."

Suddenly standing up, with more than two hours before the recording of the interview, Chi Yu planned to leave the room to get some air.

It would be best to drink a bottle of ice water to clear his head.

Thinking this way, Chi Yu took a bottle of ice water and went directly to the top floor of the Radio and Television Building on the 150th floor. As soon as he got out of the elevator, he found that there was actually someone there besides himself during this working hour.

The man was wearing a neat suit, and his golden-brown short hair was combed back meticulously.

He stood at the edge of the building and didn't look like he was just catching the wind. He was more like a leader reviewing troops, full of momentum. His iris-purple eyes glanced at Chi Yu, but he didn't say anything.

Chi Yu wasn't afraid of him either. Since the other party didn't speak, he walked over and sat down generously, twisted open the ice water and took a big gulp, and then let out a comfortable burp.

After he finished this series of actions, the man who was standing not far from him now had his eyes completely on him. Chi Yu also saw the other party's face clearly.

It was very awkward.

He recognized who the other party was at a glance.

Long Suo·Haiduona, the person he was going to interview today.

"Want a drink?"

On a whim, he handed out the unfinished bottle of ice water.

Almost the moment he raised his hand, Chi Yu regretted it. What was he thinking, giving a half-drunk bottle of ice water to such a big tycoon?

But what he didn't expect was that although this Haiduona family head had a cold face, his hand directly took the ice water he handed over and drank it without any disgust.

Chi Yu: 0.0?

"You... why are you here?"

Seeing his "approachable" behavior, Chi Yu boldly greeted him.

"What about you?" The other party didn't answer but asked instead, "Why are you here?"

"I... I'm nervous because I'm going to interview a big shot later."

Not directly saying that the interview subject was right in front of him, Chi Yu felt that his mentality was pretty good right now.

"Oh."

He didn't know if all successful people were so taciturn, but at least Chi Yu felt that the person in front of him was so taciturn that he could kill the conversation with just an "oh."

No wonder a group of seniors didn't want to do interviews with such big shots, and only recommended himself.

So he was being tricked?

"Then what about you? Mr. Haiduona, what's the reason for you being here?"

Gathering his courage to chat again, Chi Yu received the same cold response from the other party: "Because I have a lot of things to do every day, and I have to make time for interviews, which is a bit annoying."

Chi Yu: "…"

So the root of the other party's pain was because of his interview program?

"That's quite a coincidence hahaha... I'm also quite annoyed."

For a moment, Chi Yu didn't know what to say. He just smiled foolishly, but saw that the other party's eyes looking at him were a little strange.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"It's nothing, I just feel like you look a bit like my child."

Chi Yu:?
