Chapter 227: Chapter 173: These Are Merit-Blessed Stockings
No casualties don’t mean no impact!
As the captain of the City Management Team, shouldn’t he fully mobilize his troops to detain people and conduct a thorough investigation?
Mayor: "What do you think about Black Impermanence being discussed online?"
City Management Team Captain: "I look at it via my phone."
Mayor: ???
Look at this, what kind of answer is that?
The City Management Team Captain might have felt that his words were a bit too blunt, so he added:
"When you have the time, Mayor, try searching Ke Chen City and White Impermanence as keywords, and you’ll understand why I said that.
If there’s nothing major, I won’t take up any more of your time."
With that, the City Management Team Captain stood up and left without waiting for the Mayor’s response.
"Ke Chen City? White Impermanence?"
The Mayor mumbled for a while, then went online to start searching.
The more he searched, the more shocked he became.
Especially when he saw the figure that seemed to reach the sky, he felt a bout of megalophobia coming on.
Meanwhile, the City Management Team Captain, leaving the Mayor’s office, watched as trending information kept updating, recalling how, that morning, when Black Impermanence first appeared, he immediately organized his personnel to rush to the scene...
When he saw the person possessed by "Black Impermanence" from a distance, he couldn’t help but tremble.
The faster they went in, the faster they retreated.
The Captain of the River Debris City Urban Management Team is a Receptacle.
The body of the Contained Object is a large church door, and he named this Contained Object "Church Prison."
[Church Prison] possesses two characteristics.
First, it has the power of containment.
Even powerful figures from the Flower-Picking Realm can be contained within it.
Second, it has a "benevolent" quality.
Those contained behind the door, the longer they are contained, the more they become good people under "universal values"—
Active, optimistic, helping old ladies cross the street, handing in a found penny immediately, not posting explicit pictures online, eating sweet tofu brain, sleeping when drunk, dipping dumplings in vinegar...
But just now, when the City Management Team Captain thought about containing the other person in the [Church Prison], he could clearly sense the Contained Object’s resistance, or more accurately—
It was a kind of fear!
Even when he detained the "living" consciousness of Lust Power inside, he didn’t get this kind of feedback!
Captain: "Challenge yourself!"
Contained Object: "What a fancy move!"
Captain: "Man can conquer nature! As long as we have a determined fighting spirit!"
Contained Object: "What a big talker you are!"
Amidst this fear, the Captain felt that his connection with the Contained Object was nearly severed.
Contained Object: If you dare to contain him in my body, I dare to run away.
Is there really no way?
No, there should be another method.
The City Management Team Captain finished his contemplation, pulled out his phone, and called the Ke Chen City Management Team Captain—
To seek advice on how a city should get along with Black Impermanence.
As a city with experience dealing with White Impermanence, they must have effective and practical advice.
After an hour of communication...
The River Debris City Urban Management Team Captain’s phone had gained dozens of gigabytes of documents and video materials.
"Research on Individuals Possessed by White Impermanence"
"On the Positive Role of White Impermanence in Advancing Ke Chen City’s Development"
"Peaceful Coexistence Management Regulations with White Impermanence (Trial)"
"City Management Team Training Course on White Impermanence (Video Edition)"
"Lying Flat? Complete Ruin? No! We Are Actively Trying to Build Stable Communication Channels with White Impermanence"
"..."
Looking at these document titles, the River Debris City Urban Management Team Captain could clearly feel Ke Chen City’s powerlessness in the face of White Impermanence...
When such thoughts arose, the Captain’s Contained Object shuddered slightly and conveyed with its limited "spiritual wisdom" a signal to the Captain—
"These contents are brilliant!"
...
Compared to online tension and the pressure of River Debris City’s municipal management, people offline felt more relaxed.
The plethora of information online pulled the general public out of their mundane life, suddenly making them...
Like unknown creatures.
Wow, there’s a scoop here; I’ll munch on it furiously.
Hmm? This scoop is even bigger! I’ll devour it rapidly.
There’s a whole melon field here, come, come...
What scoop are you eating that I haven’t? Let me have a bite...
But unlike ordinary people, Tang Ping was particularly busy, and his ordeal in the morning made him turn red hot!
Now he needs to edit recorded segments from his live stream to post online, ensuring the trend started by him binds the "Black Impermanence" keyword with the "No Way, This Live Room".
Then, he also needs to evaluate soft ads and take a few business deals.
His parents’ condition had stabilized, and he had saved enough money for his younger siblings’ college, so taking a few more promotions to earn some ad revenue could help more kids who can’t afford education go to school.
He didn’t want them to be like him, joining society and working after only a middle school education.
This kind of life is too hard...
Oh, if there’s some extra money, he could save up for a dowry himself.
Just then, Tang Ping’s phone rang.
Du Li: "I saw your efforts online! I think you deserve to be with me, let’s get back together."
Seeing this message, Tang Ping suddenly came to his senses—
