As A Trash Collector, I Collected A Imperial Jade Seal

67 A Huge Iron Crate! 150 Kilograms! What’s Inside? (2)

In a standard action film, a scene where one person had taken on dozens of people at once was a result of neatly cut together frames and tons of cuts.

However, at this moment, around 7 people could be seen lying flat on the ground.

Some were clutching their stomachs and crying out in pain.

Some had their bones completely broken.

Meanwhile, Chen the Fourth had been beaten up so badly that his head had swollen to the size of a pig’s, and his nose was bleeding profusely.

“Holy cow!”

“????”

“It’s like a Demon Lord descending from the heavens, our host is really a Taisui God!”

“He’s downright awesome!”

Luo Feng’s viewers were dumbfounded.

Just from the scuffle alone, Luo Feng’s livestream had gained approximately 10 thousand fans!

His stream had made it all the way to the hot and trending page of the platform.

Who could blame him? After all, what the viewers had just witnessed felt like a scene taken right out of a movie, but even better!

The meaty thumps that accompanied each hit!

The nosebleeds that sprayed across the assailants’ faces!

Everything looked extremely realistic no matter how the viewers attempted to nitpick.

Moreover, upon deeper consideration, Luo Feng had been digging fiercely and quickly throughout all his streams.

When the viewers put two and two together, they came to a conclusion, Luo Feng had been a martial arts expert all along!

Nee-naw nee-naw!

Very quickly.

Before Luo Feng could even make a police call, police cars had arrived.

Luo Feng was puzzled by this sight. How could they appear so quickly in the wilderness?

“Officer, we…”

An Peng walked up and was about to explain.

But Captain Sun waved his hand and said, “Explanations are unneccessary! I already know everything!”

“You knew?”

Dumbfounded by the officer’s words, Luo Feng looked at the assailants that were sprawled across the ground and asked, “What about these people?”

“I’ll be taking them away! They clearly instigated the fight, and you were merely defending yourself!”

As Captain Sun spoke, 8 or so policemen got out of their cars and immediately escorted the group of attackers to their vehicles.

They did not resist.

Chen the Fourth only sighed helplessly.

He had a feeling that things were not going to go his way, but at least he had tried his best.

Mr. Chen1 can only blame himself for what was to come.

“Well, Captain Sun, can you please enlighten me as to how you guys were aware of the situation unfolding here? You didn’t even bother to take our report of the situation, after all.”

Curiosity piqued, Luo Feng posed the question to the police captain.

“It’s simple. Do you know of Chen Zhilong?”

Captain Sun continued, “He used to be one of the top entrepreneurs here in Jiangnan.”

“I know, I know,”

“As a local of Jiangnan, how could I not know of Chen Zhilong?”

Furthermore, my family has a grudge with this dog.

No, it wasn’t just my family, but the entire village.

When Chen Zhilong first came to the Qingshan Village to start a business, he had colluded with the local village chief to purchase the lands at a lowered rate.

As a result, he had stroked the ire of the entire village towards him.

“Yes, he was once the director of Yuanchi Steel Factory!”

“He had embezzled a lot of money!”

“We received a tip-off regarding his illegal activities, but we haven’t been able to find a single trace of evidence pertaining to the matter!”

“As a result, we have been forced to let him off scott-free!”

“But there are rumors that out the few hundred million that he had embezzled, part of it lies within this abandoned steel factory! Though we have no clue where it is hidden, as its massive size makes scouring it in any systemic manner rather difficult.”

“As such, we’ve set up several surveillance cameras around the area, trying to catch him in the act of collecting the money!”

“And from what had seen via the cameras earlier, these hooligans seemed to be deliberately leading you away! We surmised that the spot you’re digging at holds the money that has been embezzled!”

“So, all you have to do now is continue digging!”

“We’ll send a few more trucks worth of men to watch over you while you dig!”

“With your help, we might finally be able to collect enough evidence to put Chen Zhi Long behind bars!”

Captain Sun exclaimed.

...

With this, the doubts and suspicions plaguing Luo Feng had been cleared.

Not long after, several more police trucks arrived at the area and surrounded it.

In juxtaposition to his tens of thousands of virtual viewers, Luo Feng now had hundreds of live viewers watching him dig as well.

“Hurry up and dig, kid. You don’t need our help with it, right?”

Captain Sun saw Luo Feng’s confused look and patted him on the shoulder, giving him an encouraging smile as he did so.

“Alright, I’ll start digging then!”

Luo Feng came back to his senses and began to dig.

“Wow! Host, your influence is growing by the second!”

“You now have hundreds of actual people watching you dig!”

“Impressive! All I can say is that you’re awesome, man!”

“All the best, host! You must dig out the evidence!”

...

There were more and more people flooding into the livestream as rumors spread of a live streamer uncovering a conspiracy regarding the embezzlement of millions of funds.

How could anyone restrain their curiosity regarding such a juicy situation?

Of course, Luo Feng had also asked for Captain Sun’s permission to continue the livestream before he started digging.

In response, Captain Sun had given his approval, saying that they would not interrupt his broadcast.

“Here, Little Luo, have a cigarette.”

“Why don’t you rest for a while?”

“You’re pretty good at this!”

“You fought off 8 or so attackers at once, and they didn’t manage to land a single hit on you?”

“You’ve been practicing martial arts since you were young, haven’t you?”

Captain Sun handed him a cigarette.

Luo Feng grabbed the cigarette, but instead of putting it into his mouth, he placed it above his ear and answered, “Nah, I don’t need to rest. Just from the look in your eyes, I could tell that you’re highly expectant of what’s contained underneath all this soil. As for my martial skill, I’ve actually trained myself in secret. Even my parents aren’t aware of it, and I was only forced to show my hand because of the situation that unfolded earlier.”

At this point.

Luo Feng gave the police captain a sly smile.

“Damn, you’ve been really dedicated in keeping your abilities a secret, huh? To think that you’ve been able to keep such strength under wraps for so long, even to your own parents.”

“Are you interested in joining our reconnaissance team?”

“Or… I can even introduce you to the military!”

Seeing Luo Feng’s quick dismissal of his first offer, Captain Sun immediately followed it up with an offer to work in the military.

However, the other party still did not seem to be interested.

“Thank you, Captain Sun! My hobby is treasure hunting, and I’m going to travel all over the country doing so!”

Luo Feng had a cheat system in place.

In order to prosper in life, this was the only path he could take.

If he were to ever head to a different industry, he was bound to flounder.

Upon hearing this, Captain Sun went silent and did not disturb Luo Feng any further.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the area under Luo Feng’s hoe.

An hour passed.

A two-meter deep hole had been dug.

Bam!

Suddenly.

Luo Feng’s Swallowtail Hoe seemed to have struck an iron lump.

Luo Feng felt the massive recoil from the impact travelling to his hands.

“Little Luo? Have you found it?”

Captain Sun stood up and shouted excitedly.

“I think I’ve found it!”

Luo Feng was also excited. Just what exactly were those countless dots he had spotted?

Did Chen Zhilong embezzle all his assets and turn them into gold bars before burying them?

It was worth mentioning that Captain Sun had relinquished all rights of whatever that had been dug to up to Luo Feng.

However, before Luo Feng could fully claim it as his own, Captain Sun had to first take it into custody so that it could be used as evidence against Chen Zhilong.

“It’s a huge metal crate!”

After removing the soil that had covered the surface of the object, a big, shiny, box was revealed to Luo Feng…

Is this made out of steel?

How can it not rust at all?

Plus, it seems to be rather big?

It’s at least 1 meter tall.

Using his Swallowtail Hoe, Luo Feng quickly scraped away at the surrounding walls. Once he was certain that there were no more similar crates to be found, he then shouted, “This thing’s a little heavy! I think we’ll need a few bundle of ropes to pull it up!”

“Alright!”

Captain Sun nodded and shouted excitedly, “Everyone, come over and help pull this crate up!”

Around 7 minutes later.

With the help of the many officers, the crate had finally been pulled up from within the hole.

It weighed around 150 kilograms.

It was very heavy.

…

…

“Useless!”

“Chen the Fourth, that useless piece of trash!”

“I swear they’ll pay for this!”

“Can’t they try and use their brain more? There must have been some way to lure that stupid streamer away without resorting to violence!”

“Losing the fight is one thing, but I can’t believe that they were even captured by the police and sent to the police station!”

“Also, what was that acting? Any person with a semblance of a braincell could tell that they were purposefully trying to lead the streamer away from the area!”

At this very moment, in one of his houses within Jiangnan City, Chen Zhilong was boiling with fury.

The embezzled funds he had hidden had remained undiscovered for years, and many of the officials had been helpless against him.

Though he had made plans to collect them at one point, after investigating the site, he realized that there were tons of cameras trained on the area.

As such, he had chosen to ignore the money, and had forbade any of his subordinates from digging the area.

Because once they were caught, he too, would eventually be caught.

The serial number of the money was recorded within the police database.

Once the embezzled funds had appeared, Chen Zhilong’s fate was sealed.

“Mr. Chen, why don’t we flee?”

“The police would come knocking at our doors at any moment!”

An old butler beside him said worriedly.

“Where can I even flee to? I’m probably being watched as we speak!”

“Once we make it to the border, I’m sure there’ll be a way for us to flee the officials’ sights!”

“Also, what kind of luck does this Luo Feng guy have? To think that out of all the possible locations that he could dig at, he somehow managed to dig at MY spot?”

Chen Zhilong swore to himself that he would take his revenge at Luo Feng.

However, the more pressing issue at the moment was that now that his secret was out, was there a way for him to escape?

That was a huge question mark, even for someone of his means and resources.

…

…

Meanwhile, in the area around the abandoned steel factory, a loud bang resounded.

Luo Feng channeled all his strength and slammed his hoe into the big metal lock blocking access into the crate.

Once the box was opened.

The 100 or so officers that were present swarmed towards Luo Feng.

They widened their eyes in curiosity of what was contained within.

A musty smell filled the air, and very quickly, its contents were laid bare for all to see.
