Cheng Mo's efficiency far exceeded Ling Yi's expectations.
An office space was rented for Ling Yi in just one day.
In the city center of Baihai City, the Haida Business Building occupies an entire eleven-story floor, covering an area of nearly 800 square meters.
The company's affairs were settled the next day, including obtaining its business license, and the company was officially named " Jiang Ling Future Technology Limited Liability Company."
Because there is more than one shareholder, it is a "responsible" company.
Of these, Ling Yi holds 70% of the shares, Cheng Mo holds 2%, and the remaining 28% goes to the shareholders who received financing.
On the third day, Cheng Mo sent two invitation letters to the CEOs of various companies in China in Ling Yi's name.
One was an invitation to the press conference, and the other was an invitation to the equity auction.
The press conference will be held tomorrow morning, while the equity auction will be tomorrow afternoon.
Meanwhile, Cheng Mo also contacted several media outlets and some popular online streamers to generate buzz for tomorrow's press conference.
Ling Yi did not participate in the entire process.
In fact, Ling Yi hasn't contributed a single penny so far.
Ling Yi was incredibly fortunate to have recruited Cheng Mo; if he had tried to do it himself, he would have been completely clueless.
After ending the phone call with Cheng Mo, Ling Yi stretched comfortably.
" Xiaoran, how's the investigation into the car accident going?"
On the morning of May 22nd, Zheng Tianyang, the only son of Zheng Hai of the Zheng Group in North Leaf Province, drove a sports car to Baihai City.
"At 8:21:25, I entered the Z6 Expressway. My speed was 90 km/h at the time, which was not speeding."
"At 8:37:55, the vehicle encountered a heavy truck with license plate number BH819886. At that time, the heavy truck was traveling at 80 km/h and the sports car was traveling at 90 km/h; neither was exceeding the speed limit."
"The heavy truck is heading south, while Zheng Tianyang's sports car is heading north. The two vehicles are on different roads, separated by a guardrail."
At 8:38:15, Zheng Tianyang's sports car suddenly swerved, crashed through the guardrail, and ended up on the opposite side of the road.
"When the truck Siji saw the vehicle suddenly cutting in front of him, he instinctively slammed on the brakes. However, the truck was carrying 125 tons of cement, and the sudden braking caused the vehicle to completely lose its balance."
"The immense inertia caused the heavy truck to roll over four times in succession, eventually coming to a complete stop in the middle of the road, almost blocking both lanes."
"Following this, a chain-reaction collision involving 121 vehicles occurred."
"As for the instigator, Zheng Tianyang and his sports car were completely unharmed and escaped successfully. He attended his classmate's wedding as usual the next day and is currently at a club in Baihai City."
Ling Yi frowned and asked, "Why did Zheng Tianyang do that? Crashing through the guardrail and crossing into the oncoming lane—isn't that courting death? That's a highway!"
The Intelligent Xiao Ran voice suddenly became excited, saying, "Boss, I found the dashcam footage from Zheng Tianyang's sports car. Although there are traces of it being deliberately deleted, that's no problem for me."
"Boss, do you believe in extraordinary powers in this world?"
"Hmm?" Ling Yi raised an eyebrow.
"Extraordinary power?"
"I don't know how to explain this. Boss, you should watch the video first, then we can talk."
Ling Yi's phone screen lit up automatically, opened the media player, and started playing a video.
The video is set inside a car, with the camera pointing directly at the driver's seat.
He was a very handsome young man, showing no signs of the arrogance typical of a rich second-generation heir; on the contrary, he appeared very composed.
That makes sense. When a sports car is on the highway, it's unacceptable if it doesn't go over 200 km/h, but Zheng Tianyang's speed seemed to be consistently below 100 km/h, which was quite steady.
Zheng Tianyang was the only person in the car. He held the steering wheel with both hands, looking very relaxed.
The car stereo was still playing soothing symphony; by no means did he seem like someone about to commit suicide.
The video lasted for ten minutes, and just as Ling Yi was getting impatient, a strange scene unfolded.
Zheng Tianyang's pupils suddenly lost their whites and turned completely black.
It was as if Youran had dripped two drops of ink into his eyes.
Then, Zheng Tianyang's expression instantly turned ferocious. He grinned wickedly and then slammed the steering wheel, causing the vehicle to shake violently.
The footage clearly shows his sports car nearly grazing the front of the heavy truck as it sped past, weaving in and out of traffic with several other vehicles, almost getting hit by them several times.
Through the vehicle's windows, the heavy truck, already overturned, could be seen.
Even after the sports car darted across the road and into the farmland beside it, Zheng Tianyang continued driving with a cold and indifferent attitude.
Then it turned a corner, tracing a huge arc through the farmland, and drove back onto the highway. Only at the next intersection did it turn around, rejoin the Z6, and continue driving towards Baihai City.
Only then did Zheng Tianyang's eyes return to normal.
At that moment, his expression turned angry and terrified. It took him a long time to calm down before he dialed his father Zheng Hai's, phone number.
Ling Yi felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end.
Where's the normal world I was promised? What is this? Am I possessed?
Wow, suddenly this world feels very dangerous, doesn't it?
"What else did you find out?" Ling Yi took a deep breath and asked the Intelligent Xiao Ran.
"I'm monitoring the Zheng Family family's phones around the clock, but Zheng Family don't seem to know what's going on."
"They speculated that Zheng Tianyang had encountered a ghost, but clearly, they were also very surprised and found it hard to understand."
"This morning, Zheng Hai also arrived in Baihai City, bringing a Daoist priest with him to exorcise evil spirits for Zheng Tianyang."
Is it useful?
"I don't know. After the car accident that day, Zheng Tianyang returned to normal. The Daoist priest spent a lot of time burning talismans and performing shamanistic rituals, but it's hard to tell whether it was effective or not."
"So it's useless then?"
"I investigated that Daoist priest; he's probably just a Jianghu."
Ling Yi fell into deep thought.
Do such strange and unusual things really exist in this world?
If ghosts truly exist, then there must be corresponding forces, such as Dao Practitioner or exorcists?
Ling Yi has lived in this world for over twenty years, so how come he has never heard any related news before?
No, perhaps he had heard of it, and quite a few at that.
But he didn't take any of it seriously.
Moreover, in these kinds of situations, it's impossible for ordinary people to tell the truth from the falsehood.
"Gather all relevant information and see if anything similar happens!" Ling Yi felt unwell, a chill running down his spine, as if ghosts were all around him.
"By the way, investigate everyone at the accident scene, including their dashcam footage."
"While you're at it, investigate the Zheng Group's enemies, especially Zheng Tianyang, comprehensively."
"If it's something eerie, then this joke has gone way too far."
Ling Yi automatically acquired a cheat system, but he never took it seriously, or rather, he never really took it seriously at all.
Two sign-in rewards: one for a futuristic drone, and one for the Wushuang Lü Bu.
The drones are about to bring him a fortune, Wushuang Lü Bu will bring him powerful military strength.
Ling Yi thought, "Who could withstand the release of that Wushuang Might?"
Therefore, Ling Yi has never really cared much about the cheat system. When it comes to reporting things, he just sees it and moves on, or ignores it if he doesn't see it—a very laid-back attitude.
Now, Ling Yi felt a strange sense of urgency.
Just then, a system notification sound suddenly appeared in Ling Yi's mind.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, your reputation has reached 1 million. Reputation Lottery mode is now available. Your current reputation level is 1. You can upgrade when you accumulate 10 million reputation."
"Ding! The current host can now participate in a beginner-level Lottery. Each beginner-level Lottery costs 100,000 reputation points."
As the system message "You're here" appeared, a system interface popped up in front of Ling Yi's eyes.
[ Report to Become Stronger System ]
[Host: Ling Yi ]
[Number of reports: 2]
[Report Content: Banana Phone Incident, Traffic Star Incident!]
[Reward for reporting: C2133 Drone and related technology, Wushuang Lü Bu Battle Power and supporting equipment!]
[ Reputation Points: 1001300! (Click to Lottery )]
[ Personal Space: Omitted!]
"Why does the system suddenly seem so serious?" Ling Yi asked, stroking his chin.
Why are you being so serious? Don't you realize it?
The system is a perfectly legitimate system, it's just that Ling Yi isn't using it properly, or rather, he's misusing it.
The Report to Become Stronger System" —just from the name, you can tell that the Protagonist in this system will definitely be working behind the scenes.
After only reporting it twice, she became an internet celebrity. It's unbelievable...
Since you're not going to work behind the scenes, let's just update your Reputation Points system and let you play in the spotlight.
Ling Yi didn't care about any of that at this point. Since he could Lottery, he might as well try his luck.
"Ding! Host, would you like to spend 100,000 Reputation Points for Lottery?"
"No, I'll do a ten-pull straight!"
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Heavenly Eye!"
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Heavenly Ear!"
Ling Yi waited for a long time, but the system didn't respond at all. Confused, he asked, "Is that all?"
"Ding, the current Lottery has ended. The winning probability for the basic Lottery is 10%."
"So, it means that getting two out of ten is considered a pretty high chance?"
"However, the Heavenly Eye and Heavenly Ear?"
With Ling Yi took out a pair of glasses and a Bluetooth headset from his Personal Space. These were supposed to be the Heavenly Eye and Heavenly Ear?
Heavenly Eye: Can lock onto a target, view the target from a third-person perspective, view all images within 24 hours before and after a specified time point, and record them as video. Can be used 3 times a day, with the number of uses refreshed at midnight.
Heavenly Ear: It can lock onto a target and record all sounds within 24 hours before and after a specified time point. It can be used 3 times a day, and the number of uses is refreshed at midnight.
"System, is this thing considered a technological device or a magical artifact?" Ling Yi asked, frowning.
"Ding! Heavenly Eye C2523 and Heavenly Ear C2523 are products of Future Technology from Parallel World."
Could the Future Technology of Parallel World be this dark?
As soon as he put on the glasses and Bluetooth earphones, a stream of information appeared in Ling Yi's mind, and Ling Yi instantly understood how to use them.
"Is this really not a magic weapon?" Ling Yi murmured.
"Target locked: Zheng Tianyang, the sole heir of the Zheng Group in North Leaf Province. Time: 8:00 AM, May 22nd."
At Ling Yi's command, the scene before them suddenly changed, and sound began to come through the Bluetooth headset.
This is a rather luxuriously decorated office.
Zheng Tianyang was seated at the head of the office, while his father, Zheng Hai, the head of the Zheng Hai Group, sat on the sofa next to him!
