At this moment, Brother Dao was still continuously browsing videos and following more targeted content pushed by the platform, which led him to follow more people.
So farâ¦
He had already followed more than fifty people!
And the number was still increasing!
He had spent three hundred years of his lifespan conducting a Death
Investigation, and the result indicated that a major fire disaster would occur in the shopping mall.
The reasons included old and aging electrical wires, substandard fire exits, missing fire safety equipment, and even a faulty fire sprinkler system throughout the mall.
This caused a major disaster!
How could he not panic?
âCrap! The person in charge of this shopping mall deserves to die!â Li Yidao kept swiping videos while cursing inwardly.
No matter what industry or public space it was, no matter how well-decorated or equipped it was, the most crucial aspect was fire safety and emergency response to unforeseen crises.
Fire safety was of paramount importance, especially in large shopping malls where regular inspections were a must to ensure absolute safety and zero risks.
Otherwise, when problems arose, it would be a big disaster, just like the current situation!
Yet the person in charge of this mall chose to ignore so many fire safety issues without making any improvements!
What else could this be but seeking profits at the expense of lives?
This was murder!
[Ding! Temporary mission triggered by the system.]
[Mission requirement: Host must rescue more people from the fire disaster without violating the principles of the system.]
[No punishment for mission failure, completing the mission rewards 1/100 of the rescued personâs lifespan, and one Godâs Treasure Box.]
As Li Yidao cursed inwardly, he suddenly heard the systemâs prompt.
He was taken aback, and even his hand stopped swiping videos.
A mission?
After the system was fully activated, it indeed introduced a mission system.
But he didnât expect to encounter it so quickly!
Moreover⦠the reward for this mission left him in awe!
At least it should be enough to replenish the three hundred years of lifespan he used for the Death Investigation just now!
Not to mention the Godâs Treasure Box?
He was curious about what that could be, but Li Yidao didnât waste much time thinking!
Because time was running out!
During his investigation just now, he already learned the exact time when the fire would occur!
It was 6:46 PM!
And now it was already past 3 PM!
That meant he had less than three hours to issue warnings and save everyone in the entire shopping mall!
Directly intervening, calling emergency services, or reporting the mallâs fire safety issues wouldnât work!
He had tried all these options, and the result was always the systemâs threat of death!
The only feasible solution he could think of now was to follow more people!
But⦠would it really be effective?
Looking at the increasing comments and prompts, he temporarily abandoned video-swiping and opened the comments section.
âBrother Dao! Brother Dao! Youâre my ancestor! Whatâs going to happen?
Brother Dao, please tell us! Please, I donât want to die!â
âBrother Dao! I donât want my mom to die! Just give us a hint! How can we avoid it?â
âThatâs right, Brother Dao. So many people have been followed by you. If they were all killed, would your conscience be able to live with it?â
âFire! The shopping mall is definitely going to have a fire! Everyone spread the word!â
âIâm going crazy! Brother Daoâs following count keeps increasing. Itâs too d*mn nerve-wracking!â
âDoes anyone see it? Thereâs going to be a fire! Itâs definitely happening in the shopping mall! Look at Brother Daoâs hint! Pin me at the top!â
At this moment, while continuously refreshing the screen, Li Yidao saw a comment from a person who was attempting to grab everyoneâs attention by spamming.
Unfortunately, there were too many comments, and it quickly got pushed down.
When he saw this personâs comment, Li Yidaoâs eyes lit up.
This person mentioned the fire!
Others guessed it, so it shouldnât be attributed to me, right?!
He quickly pinned this personâs comment at the top of the thread.
Great!
The system didnât give a death prompt!
That meant the system implicitly allowed this! âNow, everyone should take notice, right?â
âThey should understand what I mean, right?â
For a moment, Li Yidao felt relieved in his heart. A smart helper was indeed great!
Howeverâ¦
As this comment gained popularity, people started paying attention to it.
But one message this person left under Li Yidaoâs comment made him furious!
âIf you have loved ones in the mall, tell them to leave quickly! Our manager doesnât believe Brother Dao and wonât close the mall!â
âNot willing to close the mall?â
it!â
âI spent three hundred years of lifespan to investigate and you donât believe it?â Li Yidaoâs eyes turned cold at this moment.
He already held grudges against the mallâs manager, and now he had even more reason to be angry!
Subconsciously, he wanted to find this managerâs ID.
But he didnât know the managerâ¦
After thinking for a moment, he decided to open a live stream.
Though he couldnât openly give hints or violate the systemâs rules, asking for the managerâs ID shouldnât be a problem, right?
If he could get the ID, he wouldnât mind giving the manager a follow!
Then he could provide a more conspicuous hint!
If the system didnât allow followingâ¦
Li Yidao had already figured out what to do!
He wasnât inflexible! He could use the Grim Reaperâs hand through the manager to give everyone a deeper warning!
The Grim Reaperâs power⦠was not something he couldnât use!
As Brother Daoâs live stream opened up, instantly, over 100 ,ooo fans flooded in!
If it werenât for the platform continuously monitoring Li Yidaoâs active account status, and if they didnât immediately allocate him to an exclusive backup server the moment he went online, his stream might have lagged like crazy!
Soon after reaching 100,000, it jumped to over 1 million!
One couldnât deny that Li Yidaoâs current influence on fans was truly astonishing, even he couldnât believe it!
âD*mn, Brother Dao, you finally showed up! Weâre all waiting for your explanation!â
âYeah, Brother Dao, whatâs going on? D*mn it! You canât scare us like this!â
âBrother Dao, Brother Dao! Why did you follow me? Whatâs going on? Is there really going to be a fire?â
âYeah! Iâm not even in that mall! Why did you follow me?â
âBrother Dao, tell us, is there really going to be a fire? If so, just blink!â
Seeing everyoneâs inquiries, Li Yidao felt helpless.
He also wanted to blink, but as soon as he had that thought, the systemâs hidden death prompt came!
He could only maintain a poker face and even found it somewhat scary to naturally blink!
He was really frightened now!
If he didnât control his facial expression properly, the system would immediately kill him!
If he died! Who was going to save these people?
He took a deep breath, pondered for a moment, and then spoke slowly:
âThe truth of the matter will always come to light, and some things require everyone to judge for themselves.â
âAlso, I want to ask if anyone knows the person in charge of Jiaxin Mall. What is this personâs platform ID?â
Li Yidao deliberately spoke slowly in the first sentence, and if he felt anything was wrong, he would stop immediately!
Fortunately, the system didnât trap him!
As for the audience in the live stream right now, when they heard Li Yidao asking for the ID of the mallâs manager, they all paused for a moment!
Then, someone started gossiping!
âSh*t! Brother Dao, what are you up to? You donât mean to go and kill that guy, do you? That meansâ¦â
âUpstairs, stop using question marks, be sure! I already understand Brother Daoâs intentions!â
âOh lord! I get it, Brother Dao! We understand your words. Iâll go find it for you now! â
âNo need to look for it! I know it! The ID was âGeneral Manager of Jiaxin Mallâ!
Thatâs his ID! Brother Dao go and deal with him! F*ck it!â
âThatâs right! Thatâs his ID! He actually accused us of spreading rumors! Can he take responsibility if something really happens?â
âF*ck! Iâm pissed off! He even threatened to kick me out if I dare to spread more fire disaster rumors!â
âUh⦠whatâs the situation, then? Is there really going to be a fire?â
âOh god! Are you upstairs dumb? Canât you see what Brother Dao is doing? The hint is so obvious, isnât it clear?â
âNo! Why doesnât Brother Dao just say it directly? Whatâs the point of beating around the bush like this? I strongly suspect Brother Dao is just trying to create a topic!â
âUpstairs, get lost! Donât mislead people! Heavenâs secrets must not be revealed, understand?â
âOh d*mn! Thanks to the guy upstairs, I suddenly get it! Heavenâs secrets must not be revealed! Brother Dao is trying to remind us!â
âHoly Moly! Look! Brother Dao followed him! He really followed the manager!â
âItâs true!â
At this moment, Li Yidao had already found the managerâs homepage.
The managerâs page didnât have many followers, only a few thousand.
Also, there were only a few promotional videos related to the mall.
As soon as he clicked into the managerâs page, the systemâs prompt sound came as expected!
99% death rate! His death rate was even higher!
Without a second thought, Li Yidao liked and followed him directly!
At the same time, he left a different sentence below!
âBelieve it rather than doubt it. Since you donât believe it, let me give you a follow!â
This sentence was followed by Li Yidaoâs classic slogan!
