Just as Wei Dongfeng hung up the phone, Xu Yi suddenly discovered that his live streaming account had received an in-app warning.

"At the request of Wei Dongfeng of the fraud ring, Mr. Xu, your live stream was specifically ordered to be banned across the entire internet. However, after review by the live stream team, it did not meet the ban criteria, and we will not cooperate! But please be aware of the potential impact; the other party has powerful connections, so please avoid giving them any leverage!"

Admin warning?

Wei Dongfeng is going to ban my live stream?

Seeing the internal message from the platform about the super moderators' rectification, Xu Yi almost laughed in anger.

He doesn't need his connections to intimidate others, yet someone tries to use their connections to intimidate him?

Han Tao just said someone bullied him, is this the person?

They bullied Han Tao, and now they're bullying him too?

Comparing backgrounds, huh?

Is he being overshadowed by the background?

Let's see who has the stronger background!

"System! Edit Background!"

"A few months ago, Han Tao noticed that the fraud ring was becoming increasingly rampant, so he specially launched a secret plan, sending me, an outsider, to secretly investigate and prevent any leaks from within the organization. After several months of hard work, we finally uncovered the Scam Den today and cracked it down in one fell swoop!"

"The relevant plans are all stored in Han Tao's safe. Apart from a few people in the upper echelons, no one else knows about them!"

"The Scam Den was busted under Han Tao's command, and the credit goes to him!"

With a stroke of his pen, Xu Yi directly attributed all the official credit for the Scam Den to Han Tao.

He wasn't part of the system, so he had no use for these things. Giving them to Han Tao was just making use of waste.

Moreover, with the system's support, Han Tao saw him as more than just an ordinary younger brother; he was someone he could entrust his life to!

Han Tao wouldn't even flinch if he were to sacrifice himself for Xu Yi!

"Editing successful, all relevant details filled in."

A system notification sounded.

With the powerful system functions, a series of secret documents suddenly appeared in Han Tao's safe, including applications for secret plans, copies of evidence of secret communications with Xu Yi, and various coded documents for applications to superiors.

At the same time.

In the office, Han Tao and his Old Senior were both stunned, their minds instantly flooded with a flood of memories.

Han Tao discovers that fraudulent forces are rampant and emerging. His Old Senior grants him special approval for a plan involving details of the Scam Den...

One by one, item by item, like thousands of threads being woven simultaneously, they instantly revealed a tightly linked chain of evidence!

Scam Den busted!

Xu Yi is a meritorious official and deserves to be rewarded, but he is also a kind-hearted citizen, so the reward is another matter!

Han Tao was the initiator of the scheme, so the success of the Scam Den should rightfully be attributed to him!

He wasn't last; he should have been first!

Before the meeting, the Old Senior had already revealed to everyone that only Wei Dongfeng, because of his strained relationship with Han Tao, did not attend this pre-meeting briefing!

In other words, only he actually believed that he was second to last, ranked above Han Tao!

"There's a problem! This live stream is problematic! The meeting is off, the live stream is off, I'm going to report this to higher authorities!"

"I refuse to believe that with my status and background, I can't even shut down a small-time streamer? What makes him think he can compare to me? Does he even deserve to be compared to me?"

Unable to figure it out, Wei Dongfeng simply stopped thinking about it!

She's just a small-time livestreamer. So what if she has Han Tao backing her up?

I'm going to kill this kid today, no matter what!

"Wei Dongfeng, when are you going to stop this fuss? This isn't your place to dictate everything!"

Han Tao frowned.

"I'm going to have the final say, what are you going to do about it? My ranking is higher than yours, what right do you have to talk to me? You're not even worthy!"

Wei Dongfeng roared, pointing at the leaderboard on the wall.

Even if his grades are worse, he's still one place higher than Han Tao. That one-place difference is enough to prevent him from being publicly criticized nationwide and facing disciplinary action!

Whether Han Tao can keep his position after the punishment is handed down is still uncertain!

At that time, I can crush those two brothers however I want... Wait!

Why is Han Tao listed above me?

Wasn't he in last place?

Why are these rankings fluctuating? Something's fishy!

"Old Senior, I told you there was a problem, but you didn't believe me. Look at this ranking list, Han Tao is even ahead of me. Is the statistics clerk useless? He can't even copy down such a small thing as rankings?"

Wei Dongfeng seemed to have discovered some earth-shattering secret, pointing at the rankings with spittle flying everywhere, his face flushed with excitement.

The Old Senior remained silent.

The others remained silent.

Only Han Tao looked at him indifferently, as if he were looking at an idiot.

Why are you all looking at me like that? Am I wrong?

"Wei Dongfeng, calm down, sit down and think about this carefully."

A colleague, unable to bear it any longer, offered a word of comfort and reminder.

"Calm down my ass! I can't calm down! You're just trying to watch the show, aren't you? What kind of good person do you think you are?"

Ignoring the advice, Wei Dongfeng threw an ashtray at the person trying to break up the fight, nearly injuring them.

"You're crazy! You don't appreciate kindness! I don't care if you live or die!"

"Han Tao, things have come to this point, stop toying with him and get this madman out of here so we don't have to suffer anymore!"

The person who tried to mediate was the only one who sympathized with Wei Dongfeng, since, without Xu Yi, Han Tao would have been ranked ahead of Wei Dongfeng based solely on the results.

He had intended to say a few words of justice, but unexpectedly, he was nearly injured by the madman!

"You're calling me crazy? Old Senior, these people have all been bribed by Han Tao and are ganging up on me! Say something!"

Wei Dongfeng screamed.

The Old Senior silently watched Wei Dongfeng for a good ten seconds before finally letting out a long sigh.

"Wei Dongfeng, you're too emotional. I'll pretend I didn't hear what you just said, but you're right about one thing: Han Tao's ranking is indeed problematic!"

Upon hearing the first half of the sentence, Wei Dongfeng's heart sank, but upon hearing the last half, he was instantly overjoyed.

Even Old Senior approve of him, so how could it be fake?

The Old Senior took special care of Han Tao, even treating him like a Han Tao, but even this Old Senior had to support him. What does this tell us?

This proves that everything in the Livestream Room was a farce; all that nonsense about Scammer and lone wolves storming Scam Den was fake.

Even that phone call just now could be fake.

Otherwise, how could a junior customer service representative say something so idiotic?

His background is inferior to that of a Little Liar?

"Han Tao, move over here."

The Old Senior spoke as if to put an end to the farce.

Upon hearing this, Han Tao stood up, but after taking only two steps, a person suddenly appeared beside him.

Why did you follow me?

"I want to see you move back to your original position with my own eyes, and then I'll see how you die!"

Wei Dongfeng said gloatingly.

Han Tao paused for a moment after hearing this, then smiled.

"You're such a nice person! Thank you for wishing me a long and healthy life!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? I wish you a long and healthy life? Are you out of your mind?"

Wei Dongfeng snorted coldly, unable to understand Han Tao's words.

"Wei Dongfeng, have you ever considered... what if Han Tao's ranking is actually ahead of yours?"

One colleague, unable to bear the overflowing compassion, added one last thing.

There's nothing I can do!

It wasn't that he wanted to help Wei Dongfeng; it was just that Wei Dongfeng was too clownish and too pathetic!

Even though everyone else understood, Wei Dongfeng still couldn't see it clearly, and even willingly jumped into the fire.

We're colleagues, after all; they can't just stand by and watch someone die, can they?

His colleagues meant well, but unfortunately Wei Dongfeng completely ignored them, single-mindedly heading straight for the fire.

"He's above me? If he were above me, I'd just die right here! I'm not kidding, I'd die instantly, just like that!"
