Chapter 22 Harvest
◎Once the boss makes a move, you will know whether he has it or not◎
"There's some relevant information about Judge Lu in the Interstellar Federation's database, but in case you're not familiar with him, let me introduce him a little more. He's upright and incorruptible, and he can't stand injustice. He's in charge of the Investigation Department, punishing evil and promoting good, and redressing wrongdoings. He's a man who values fairness and justice above all else."
Although she was standing next to the judge, Qin Shu didn't have any special reaction. Instead, she enthusiastically introduced them to Xu Wen and Zhou Yin. This scene was weird no matter how you looked at it, but Qin Shu didn't realize it at all.
Sure enough, there was a reason why the Heroic Spirit Recruitment System found her.
"Judge Lu...Sir, are you going to the sports meet to maintain fairness and justice? How exactly should we do that? We can cooperate with the arrangements."
"No need." Judge Lu refused calmly.
Qin Shu added at the right moment, "As long as Judge Lu is at the sports meet, the meet will be held fairly and impartially. There's no need for him to do anything special."
"Let's make arrangements for Judge Lu's food, clothing, housing and transportation over there." Xu Wen said.
Unexpectedly, Judge Lu shook his head and said, "No need. I am not a human being. I don't need to eat or rest."
"It's indeed not necessary physically, but you can experience it psychologically. Maybe you will have some new insights that will help your practice. Besides, providing the best service to employees has always been my first principle." Qin Shu said at the right time.
But Judge Lu still chose to refuse: "I am too evil-minded. If you get too close to me, it will affect your health."
"Okay then." Qin Shu didn't force it.
When Xu Wen saw Qin Shu gave up, he was about to take over the conversation, hoping to give the experts who were eagerly waiting for the opportunity to continue to communicate. Since excessive contact can affect the body, it should be fine if they take turns to communicate.
Unexpectedly, Qin Shu was quicker than him. "I won't force your choice, but if you have time, could you have a quick chat with a few of my friends? Some of them are judges and lawyers, which is somewhat related to your work. Perhaps you could give them some advice? Of course, I'll tell them to strike a balance and not disturb you too much."
Judge Lu paused when he heard this, but did not refuse immediately.
Xu Wen knew that the opportunity had come, and quickly explained to Judge Lu the current judicial system of the Interstellar Federation.
Sure enough, Judge Lu showed some interest in this: "Okay then."
Seeing this, Xu Wen looked at Qin Shu with admiration. Fortunately, she was smart enough to fight for this communication opportunity. Although they were talking about communicating with people in the judicial system, Qin Shu deliberately did not finish her original words. She said that she wanted to communicate with several of her friends, and it happened that several of them were engaged in judicial-related work. In other words, there were a few who were not engaged in related work, which made it convenient for them to arrange some bigwigs from other fields to communicate as well.
After Judge Lu made the arrangements, Xu Wen looked at Yun Shangjun again and asked, "Could you please come with us to the Federal Research Institute?"
"Of course." Yun Shangjun didn't seem to be arrogant and was easy to get along with.
Soon, Xu Wen and Zhou Yin invited the two bosses to leave together. Qin Shu, however, seemed to remember something and quickly opened the door and took a few steps forward: "Please wait a moment."
"Huh? What's wrong?" Xu Wen was puzzled.
"Will the new medicine made based on the Marrow Cleansing Pill be useful for injured athletes?"
When Xu Wen heard this, he immediately understood Qin Shu's thoughts: "We will send the medicine, but we can't guarantee how much use it will have."
"You made a new medicine based on that batch of marrow cleansing pills?" Yun Shangjun on the side suddenly became interested.
"Yes."
"Can you show it to me? Actually, the last time you helped me improve the Marrow Cleansing Pill, it gave me some new inspiration. I wanted to discuss it with you all again. Maybe we can make some improvements. Oh, and you said the medicine isn't very effective. Maybe the materials you used are different from ours. I brought a lot of spiritual plants from our area this time. Maybe we can exchange some? I'm also very interested in the plants here."
"Of course." Xu Wen didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain, and immediately agreed.
Qin Shu was slightly relieved. If the efficacy of the drug could be improved, it would mean that the chances of the injured Huaguo athlete's sports career being preserved would increase. Moreover, these new drugs would not only help the athlete, but also help many people across the country.
The treatment chamber can repair external injuries, but the effects of injuries are actually difficult to eliminate. For example, Qin Shu had previously broken her head, and the wound was repaired, but the effects of excessive blood loss on the body were not fully recovered until recently.
Everything is moving in the right direction.
Qin Shu finally had a good night's sleep that night.
…
Because of her good sleep quality, Qin Shu got up early the next day. When it was time for class, neither Mr. Xu nor Mr. Wu showed up. Qin Shu then realized that her tutoring career had officially ended yesterday. After two more days of rest, she would report to school the day after tomorrow.
Because she was thinking about today's game, Qin Shu asked the smart butler to remind her on time, for fear of missing it.
As expected, the smart butler came to remind her at this time, and even considerately helped her open the real-time holographic image, allowing her to watch the shooting finals in which the Interstellar Federation players participated from all angles.
I don’t know if it’s because Judge Lu’s aura is too special, but the first person Qin Shu saw was not a contestant, but Judge Lu in the audience. However, the people around him seemed to be unable to sense him, and no one noticed this unique guy at all.
Even though he still looked serious, Qin Shu had to admit that he gave her a sense of security.
Qin Shu rotated the holographic image so that the audience seats where Judge Lu was located appeared in front of her, so that she could watch the game while paying attention to Judge Lu's movements.
On the field, athletes from all over the planet are fighting bravely and showing their strength.
It's heart-wrenching, yet exhilarating.
This state continued until the last round - the gold medal battle. This round was not only a competition of strength, but more of a psychological battle and a game of willpower.
Qin Shu herself held her breath nervously, watching the Star Alliance player catch up bit by bit, and finally caught up to the second place.
"Ah, the player from the Copra Empire made a mistake and only scored 7 rings. What an opportunity! It depends on whether our Star Alliance players can seize this chance to overtake! Gold or silver medal, it all depends on this last shot! Let us witness the final performance of our Star Alliance players together!" The commentator of Star Network shouted excitedly.
Qin Shu was also very excited, but at this moment, she noticed that Judge Lu in the audience suddenly frowned.
What happened?
Qin Shu subconsciously held her breath.
Judge Lu suddenly clenched his right hand and glanced sharply at a spectator in front of him on the right.
The next second, the terminal on the audience's wrist suddenly broke into several pieces, and the person was completely stunned.
Obviously, it was Judge Lu who took action.
If Qin Shu saw correctly, when that person called up the terminal's camera function just now, a light spot appeared on the terminal's camera capture screen at the location of the flash, but before it could expand, the terminal broke down. In other words, if Judge Lu had not intervened, his flash would have definitely affected the performance of the Star Alliance players.
At this moment when you need to concentrate and are under tremendous pressure, any interference may have a significant impact.
Moreover, this behavior of turning on the flash was most likely malicious. After all, before the game started, the broadcast reminded the audience to turn off the flash function of the terminal shooting function, and this person had clearly turned off the flash function normally when taking pictures before.
Fortunately, this did not happen. The contestant from the Interstellar Federation withstood the tremendous pressure and scored a good score of ten rings with this shot. He successfully counterattacked and won the championship.
At this time, Xu Wen also sent a message to Qin Shu: "Did you see what Judge Lu did?"
"Um."
"You might not know this from not following the other matches. Although Judge Lu isn't in another venue, his power is immense. Several people who tried to disrupt the match were ultimately defeated. Our colleagues asked Judge Lu about this before, fearing misjudgments or accidental injuries. But Judge Lu said that with him on duty, unless someone harbored strong malice, they wouldn't even think of disrupting or influencing the match."
Qin Shu understood immediately after seeing this: "So the person who wanted to turn on the flash function just now really did it on purpose."
"Well, some people just don't understand that they're not helping their own country's athletes, it's insulting them."
"Who says it isn't?"
As the day went on, some of the Interstellar Federation's competitions won gold medals, some narrowly lost, and some didn't achieve a good ranking but still fought hard. No matter which one it was, it was admirable.
Win or lose, they are heroes.
Perhaps because she had been blackmailed by the entire Internet, Qin Shu could understand very well the feeling of carrying a heavy burden and moving forward under the gaze of everyone on the Internet.
Winning or losing a game should not erase the hard work of these athletes day after day. Every moment on the field is earned through countless days and nights of training and struggle. Their sweat, their hardships, and the injuries they have suffered are what have supported them to get here. They have given so much and should not shed tears after sweating and bleeding. The fact that they can stand on the stage of this competition is already moving enough.
So how can we silence those who insult and abuse them maliciously?
Qin Shu asked Xu Wen about this matter.
"Over the years, we've been constantly improving the management of this aspect of StarNet. It's true that many netizens take advantage of the fact that they can hide their identities online to spread rumors. I know many people have suggested implementing a real-name system for the entire StarNet, but this involves many problems and is not as simple as imagined. We can only step up efforts to rectify this chaos."
"Technical problem?" Qin Shu felt that the answer would not be that simple.
As expected, Xu Wen quickly replied, "No, it's a security issue. Some time ago, a planet in the Omega Quadrant implemented a real-name registration system on their planet. Almost immediately after the implementation, the information of most of their residents was stolen by interstellar hackers. Not long after, a pirate organization occupied the planet."
This is indeed a big problem.
