Daily Summary: I'm a CEO in a Bizarre World

"Name."

"Mo... Mo Shujing."

"Profession."

"Full-time 'Shake Hands' live streamer."

Why are they at 36 Warehouse Avenue tonight?

"Because I'm going to do a live stream of killing a level 2 corrupted entity."

……

Inside the Wealth District Branch of the Public Security Bureau.

In the early hours of the morning, Guang brought Mo Shujing, one of the three witnesses, back to the Public Security Bureau to take a statement about the appearance of the Level 1 pollutant.

Shortly after receiving the report, the pollution control department, which specializes in handling pollution hazards, arrived at the scene.

Apart from a man and a woman with different injuries, no trace of the Level 1 contaminant was found at the scene.

So, it was that man and woman who repelled the Level 1 contaminated entity?

The light at dawn is unknown.

Both the man and woman were injured, with the man suffering extensive pollution damage and requiring hospitalization.

Perhaps we will have to wait until the situation stabilizes before we can arrange to take their statements.

"Um...that..."

After answering all of Ling Chenguang's questions, Mo Shujing stammered.

"Ms. Mo, don't be afraid. There aren't many Level 1 pollutants lurking in Yueji City, and the chances of ordinary people encountering them are not high."

As long as one's sanity remains above the safety threshold and one avoids dangerous areas, the probability of being attacked by a Level 1 contaminated entity is actually very low.

Ling Chenguang guessed at Mo Shujing's worries and reassured her.

"No...that's not what I meant."

Mo Shujing said softly, feeling a little hesitant about what she was about to say, worried that the other party would refuse.

Seeing that Mo Shujing hadn't explained clearly, Ling Chenguang thought for a moment and then said, "Well, our Public Security Bureau won't prosecute you for this matter, please rest assured."

Although challenging the polluting entity as a citizen is an extremely dangerous act, I believe that this close call has served as a sufficient warning to you.

"I'm not worried about being sued..." Mo Shujing pouted, finally making up her mind as she said:

"I just hope that you won't contact my family and tell them about this."

Ling Chenguang paused for a moment, then nodded and said:

"That's fine. You're an adult, haven't broken the law, and are in a mentally sound state. We have no need or obligation to notify your family."

"That's good..." Mo Shujing breathed a sigh of relief.

She had finally managed to escape her family and vowed to make something of herself before returning home.

Her career is just starting to take off, and if her family finds out, they will definitely find her and bring her home.

All that effort would be for naught.

How could Mo Shujing be willing to accept this?

"By the way, are they... are they alright?"

Mo Shujing had just heard from Ling Chenguang that "Selling Stars" and "Lin's Mother" had both been sent to the hospital for treatment.

They were relieved to learn that none of them were in mortal danger.

"The woman is alright, she only suffered minor injuries. The man, according to medical staff, suffered from massive pollution and has been taken to the hospital for treatment."

Ling Chenguang answered truthfully, then added, "Are they your friends?"

"I guess so, I met 'Selling Stars' online," Mo Shujing nodded in response.

"Mai... Star".

In the early hours of the morning, Guang was starting to lose his composure and couldn't tell whether the other person was referring to a screen name or some kind of reduplicated nickname.

"Should we go visit them? They're at the First People's Hospital in the Fortune District."

"what?"

Ling Chenguang's words made Mo Shujing inexplicably nervous.

The opportunity to meet "the star seller" that I had been longing for all this time was obtained so easily?

But she remembered that she had previously expressed her desire to meet in person, but the other party refused.

Perhaps he also has his reasons for not wanting to meet.

If you use the information provided by the police station, you can go and visit them directly.

It might even provoke his dislike.

Maybe... we shouldn't go.

Ling Chenguang had no idea what Mo Shujing was thinking. He wrote down Mai Xing's ward number on a note and handed it to Mo Shujing.

"If there's nothing else, you can go back now."

"Oh, okay." Mo Shujing subconsciously picked up the note and left.

She looked at the text written above:

"Maixing, Pollution-Infected Inpatient Department, Ward 512, Bed 3"

If I bring him fruit when I visit him, maybe I can win his favor?

After all, they are partners, so they shouldn't be against meeting in person.

Holding the note, Mo Shujing's little thoughts began to stir again.

However, when she looked at the name "Mai Xing," she felt for some reason that it looked familiar.

……

The next day.

The First People's Hospital of Fortune District, Pollution Erosion Inpatient Department, Ward 512, next to Bed 3.

"What did the doctor say?"

Ye Lin put down the synthetic paste food she had packed for Mai Xing and asked.

"He said I wouldn't die, but if I stay in the hospital, I'm afraid I really will."

Lying in the hospital bed, Mai Xing stared at the still-ongoing IV drip and said with a sense of despair.

"Hospitals can be a bit boring, so I just took some time to come and chat with you for a bit, didn't I?"

Ye Lin sat down on the hospital bed.

"Am I afraid of being bored? I'm burning up my sanity!"

Mai Xing said with great distress, "Do you know how much sanity it takes to be hospitalized for a day? If we stay for two more days, the reward for killing 'Thousand Silks' will be gone."

Ye Lin suddenly realized what was happening and said:

"What are you afraid of? Manager Yan will reimburse us. I already reported to him this morning, and he promised to reimburse all medical expenses."

"Okay then."

Mai Xing closed her eyes, feeling relaxed and at ease as she received treatment.

But then he opened his eyes again and asked, "How much performance bonus did the Sealed Artifact Management Department give us for killing 'Thousand-Woven Silk'?"

Last night, after the Mother of the Deep Nest surrendered and Maistar absorbed its extraordinary power, the Mother of the Deep Nest fled from the burrow she had created when she arrived.

Ye Lin then contacted the Seal Item Management Department to come and collect the "Thousand-Woven Silk".

Excessive consumption and exposure to massive pollution caused Mai Xing to faint due to extreme weakness. When she woke up, she was already lying in a hospital bed.

"It's rated as 150 performance points, which we'll split 50/50." Ye Lin thought for a moment, then added:

"You deserve the most credit for this hunt. After the bonus is calculated at the beginning of next month, I can give you my share as well."

"No need, no need. We agreed to split it in half."

Mai Xing waved his hand and said magnanimously.

Although he paid a high price this time, he also received a more valuable reward.

With a thought, the text on the panel that only he could see appeared before his eyes.
