      by Potato Late at night, around 11 PM, two SUVs pulled up in front of a five-star hotel.  In the lead vehicle, a young man dressed in athletic wear turned to Huang Wei and said, "The person you're about to meet is quite active in the Fraudulent Merchants Association.

      by Potato “Creak, creak, screech...!”  Three off-road vehicles barely came to a stop before Ren Ye swung his door open and rushed out, his expression tense as he headed straight for the police station.  Close behind, Huang Wei followed with over a dozen Vigil Keepers, quickly ascending the steps.  “Bang!”  Ren Ye shoved the glass doors open with brute force, breathing heavily as his sharp eyes scanned the station's lobby. Only when he spotted Ren Qingning did he let…

      by Potato At the entrance of the police station, under the bright lights, the figure's features gradually became clear—it was none other than the Vigil Keeper of Qingfu District, Gu Nian, known for her long legs.  The moment Fat Dragon saw her, his will to fight vanished instantly. "Skinny Monkey, retreat!"  “Wordless Stele—Isolation!”  With a soft incantation, the gray stone tablet hanging at Gu Nian’s waist emitted a gentle glow.  Buzz!  A ripple of…

      Chapter 29: A Tragedy Cover
      by Potato At No. 88 Lianhu Road, Ren Ye was still in Xu Peng’s office, reading through information about the Star Gate.  There was no other choice—his dad was busy editing manuscripts, his sister was preoccupied, and no one at home paid him any attention. Staying home would mean sitting idly, so he might as well stick around here and get to know some “distasteful” new acquaintances.  “Quick! Everyone on duty, get over here!”  Suddenly, an urgent shout from Huang Wei echoed…

      Chapter 28: Good and Evil Cover
      by Potato So, the Bell Society really is an immensely large, evil organization? That means what Liu Ling’er said before she died wasn’t just nonsense.  Damn, I haven’t even left the newbie village, and I’ve already offended such a "gang." This is some rotten luck.  Suppressing a tinge of frustration, Ren Ye frowned and asked, “Would a country really allow an organization like this to exist? I just can’t believe it. Isn’t it your job to prevent this? Are you even worthy of…

      Chapter 27: Gaining Insight into the Star Gate Cover
      by Potato The small theater wasn’t very large, and its interior décor was old-fashioned and simple. However, the dressing room was clean and tidy, without any unpleasant odors.  Mr. He sat by the vanity table, holding an eyebrow pencil, carefully outlining his makeup. From his appearance, it was clear he was preparing to play the role of a Qingyi. After a short while, a young man and woman entered the dressing room, respectfully addressing him, “Mr. He.”  The man, standing to the left,…

      Chapter 26: A Bloody Transaction Cover
      by Potato So, I was right…  Using this Charm skill really did change my appearance.  In the dimly lit alleys of the old town, Ren Ye, who now bore the appearance of a classical beauty, led the way ahead.  He felt incredibly odd and deeply uncomfortable, as if something significant was missing down below—leaving him with an unsettling sense of emptiness.  Behind him, Old Xu proved to be quite the character. Despite lugging four heavy bags, sweating profusely, and panting…

      Chapter 25: Tracking Cover
      by Potato Inside the Office  “Heh, tui...!”  Huang Wei spat into the trash can, lit another cigarette, and took a deep drag.  Holding his phone, he scrolled through four or five player groups, all of which prominently displayed the same pinned sales post.  That wasn’t particularly unusual. These player groups frequently traded Star Gate information, items, and mission strategies. As long as someone paid the group admin an advertising fee, their post would get…
