Great, It's the Pervy Neighbor. We're Doomed

When it came to surveillance cameras, the gap between Hua Country and Europe or America was enormous.

In Hua Country, you could find cameras in every street, every alley, every public space, big or small.

Surveillance cameras were practically everywhere.

In Europe and America, the situation was the complete opposite of Hua Country.

There were very few cameras.

Banks, convenience stores, subway stations, airports—those still had them.

But streets, roads, sidewalks, residential hallways—almost none.

People there placed extreme emphasis on human rights and privacy.

That’s why there weren’t many surveillance cameras.

The laws there were also incredibly strict about this stuff.

For example, even if you installed cameras in your own home, you couldn’t film public streets, you couldn’t film your neighbor’s property, and you couldn’t capture strangers’ faces.

If you just set them up however you wanted, you might end up in court.

So, to sum it up.

In Hua Country, safety came before privacy.

That was why they installed so many cameras.

In Europe and America, privacy came before safety.

Privacy was a basic human right.

The situation at the 25 Hours Hotel in Aisen Town, Germany, was similar.

For example, the hallways and corridors on each floor had no cameras.

That included the restaurant inside the hotel—no cameras there either.

Fortunately, the first-floor lobby and the lobby entrances and exits did have cameras.

And both Jin Baiying and Zhao Jue had entered, exited, and even fled through the first-floor main entrance.

So their faces were captured clearly.

Since they had their looks confirmed, the next step was to determine their identities.

But that would take some time.

Special Live Stream, live stream room.

Mi—Obediently Plant Cotton For Me: [Lucky bastard, that Jiang Ran. About to die, and someone comes out of nowhere to save him.]

Mi—American Captain: [No kidding? Gotta say, the guy’s got thick skin! Thicker than that black guy Tabo. Now I get how he survived eight rounds.]

Maple—White Supremacy: [Those two dumbass Hua Country guys, why didn’t they just kill Jiang Ran directly? Had to mess around with other stuff and waste time.]

The Hua Country people in the Special Live Stream couldn’t be bothered to engage with these foreigners.

“Why didn’t they just kill Jiang Ran directly?”

“Had to mess around with other stuff?”

Back at Hua Country’s Alice Apartment, that Mingguang Armor Man wearing three layers of armor would like a word with you.

Now it was Special Live Stream, Day 1, 10:30 PM.

A and Y were still in their room, playing games together in a duo queue.

As for their other companion, S—S was overly extroverted, while these two leaned more toward shut-ins.

In truth.

This was also their way of protecting themselves.

As the saying went, the more you did, the more mistakes you made.

In Aisen Town, where you could earn better treatment, rather than going out to wander around, it was better to just squat in the hotel.

Play games.

Their method was playing it safe, but not excessively so.

Anyway, for today.

They had stayed in the hotel playing games, and hadn’t encountered any danger.

“I’m done, tired.”

A stretched his arms wide, twisted his neck, and rubbed his eyes.

He got up from his chair, planning to brush his teeth, wash up quickly, and then go to bed.

Y finished his game and didn’t start a new one.

He was a bit tired too.

He also got up, but instead of washing up, he stood on the small balcony for a moment, looking outside the hotel.

Then he locked the balcony window, drew the curtains.

He also locked the door to the room he shared with A, sliding the bolt into place.

After doing all that, he lay down on his own bed.

Their room was also a double room, but three of them were staying in it.

S was the one sleeping on the floor.

Of course, if he didn’t want to sleep on the floor, he could share a bed with one of them.

Since A was in the bathroom washing up, Y lay in bed first and played on his phone.

He used a Fruit Phone.

He was scrolling through the news.

Suddenly, a new message popped up on his phone.

Similar to Germany, the national chat app in Maple Country was also WhatsApp.

The message he received came through this app.

It was from S.

“What’s this guy sending me?”

He tapped it open and saw a message on the other end: “Help!”

Followed by a pinned location.

The location was exactly Bar Street, the only one in Aisen Town.

Y’s pupils were blue, the clear color of sapphires.

He blinked, pretended not to see the distress call, and continued scrolling through the news.

Soon, A finished washing up and told Y to go wash.

After A finished washing, it was his turn to sit on his bed and play on his phone.

He picked up his phone and saw that his WhatsApp had a new message.

He opened it and saw it was from S.

Then he saw what S had sent him: “Help!”

Followed by the same Bar Street location that Y had received.

Whoosh!

A suddenly stood up.

Excitedly, he spoke to Y, who was starting to wash up, his words tumbling out like he’d scalded his tongue:

“Oh no! Oh no! I got a distress call from S! It looks like something happened to him at the bar!!!”

Y, still washing up unhurriedly, replied as he scrubbed his face, “Oh, that? I know.”

A: “What? You knew? Why didn’t you tell me?”

Y: “No need to mention it. Anyway, the bar is crowded and noisy, and he won’t run into any life-threatening danger. At worst, he hit on someone else’s girlfriend or wife and got caught. He’ll have to pay compensation or something.”

“Don’t forget, last time back home, he slept with an old colleague, got her accidentally pregnant, and even borrowed money from us for an abortion. He still hasn’t paid us back. Ignore him. If we go, he’ll probably just ask for money.”

A: “But… this time, it shouldn’t be about money. If it were, he could just say it in the chat, not just send ‘help.’ Maybe he’s really in serious danger and needs us to help him!”

Y: “Give me a break. He’s pulled this trick before. He knows we’re less likely to lend him money through just chat, so he pulls this stunt.”

Y finished washing up and was drying his face with a towel.

He said, “So I’m going to bed soon. If you want to go, go yourself. Even though the three of us formed an alliance, I’m not his dad, and you’re not his mom. Do we have to help him with everything?”

A: “But… I’m a bit worried.”

Y said, “Worried my ass. That guy S has ‘women, women’ on his lips all day. You’d think his brain swapped places with his dick. I told him these seven days in Aisen Town are crucial—hold it together, hold it together—but he couldn’t resist. Came here and started screwing around the moment he arrived. I’m not going out at night to look for someone like that and take risks.”
