"Raise your hands."
Outside the awards ceremony, long queues had formed long beforehand, with people cooperating with security personnel one by one.
"Hey bro, is it really necessary to roll up your sleeves? It's freezing."
"Cooperate honestly."
The security personnel did not interrupt him, but checked his exposed skin and only allowed him to pass after confirming that there were no abnormalities.
"Next."
A bearded man stepped forward, cooperatively took off his hat, rolled up his sleeves, and handed it to the security personnel.
"Great, remember to take the bottle out and throw it away when you're done drinking the water," the security personnel reminded them.
"OK."
The bearded man nodded and walked into the venue.
The repetitive work continued, and although it was tedious, the security personnel did not slack off, because this was a task that had been repeatedly instructed by their superiors to prevent members of the Creation Church from infiltrating.
"Here's your ticket. But I'm a test taker, do I need to have it checked too?"
Xu Ruiling naturally came too. Although Shangwu didn't win the championship, he was still the runner-up.
"Little girl, we're all the same."
“Okay.” Xu Ruiling rolled up her sleeves and said with a grin, “I don’t want to look as ugly as a religious person with such good skin.”
The security personnel seemed to be influenced by her words, nodding in agreement: "Indeed."
Wang Xiaopang also passed through security and went to a spot near the front to raise his phone.
Today marks the first step for Lao Fan to become famous throughout the world, so it's worth recording!
Zhang Xiande flew around the venue repeatedly, carefully examining the surroundings.
"strangeness."
He went around in circles again, and even though it was the third time he had gotten this result, he was still puzzled.
"Has the Creation Church given up?"
He shook his head and continued his patrol.
His intuition told him that the Creation Cult would not simply give up the remains of the dragon beast, and would definitely make a move within this period of time.
Qin Sheng did not go to the scene, but instead enjoyed coffee in a coffee shop more than ten blocks away from the scene.
Meanwhile, observe the scene from Yu Rui's perspective, and when the time is right, notify the other side to begin the operation.
...
Inside the lounge, Ye Bufan and the others arrived early to wait for the awards ceremony.
He was sitting upright in the same spot, staring straight ahead at the white wall.
Suddenly a head blocked his way.
Qi Jie grinned and joked, "Brother Ye, you're not nervous, are you?"
Looking at his neat collar in the mirror, Shangwu's mind kept flashing back to how Xu Ruiling had thoughtfully tidied his clothes that morning, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.
Xu Gezhen, the examinee who was defeated by Ye Bufan, yawned and said casually, "It's the first time, and it's not like it's a battle. I get nervous just thinking about being watched by hundreds or thousands of people."
Yu Rui casually asked, "You look very relaxed."
"It wasn't exactly easy."
Xu Gezhen casually revealed the expensive watch on his wrist: "I'm used to being the center of attention."
Shangwu glanced at him: "I remember you were also quite high up in the second round, how did you do that?"
They achieved this score because they were chased by a group of test takers. If there hadn't been the initial chase, it would be hard to say who would have scored higher or lower.
"A little bit of money power."
Xu Gezhen rubbed his fingers: "The basic score was released in the first round. For the second round of practical scores, unless the candidates have really big ambitions, they are happy to make some money on the side."
"And all they need to do is come to me."
Ye Bufan frowned: "Is this considered cheating?"
Qi Jie rolled his eyes: "It's cheating, okay?"
"Who knows?"
Xu Gezhen replied casually, then glanced at Ye Bufan.
"Ye, would you be interested in discussing a business deal?"
Ye Bufan replied coldly, "No."
"Don't refuse so quickly."
Xu Gezhen took out a business card and handed it to him, but Ye Bufan didn't even bother to accept it.
Seeing this, Xu Gezhen was not angry, but instead placed the business card next to him.
"When you're out and about, stick to one friend and one path; don't be so rigid."
"Tch, they've got some money and they're putting on airs."
Qi Jie rolled up his sleeves, revealing a black and gold bracelet on his wrist: "Little brother, have you ever seen this before?"
Xu Gezhen's face showed surprise for the first time: "A spatial bracelet?"
"Why are you pretending? Why aren't you pretending anymore?"
Xu Ge was genuinely surprised. He looked Qi Jie up and down but didn't see anything of value.
But the bracelet on his wrist isn't something you can just buy with money; you need connections to get it.
"How did you get a bracelet?" Shang Wu asked in surprise.
"My mom gave it to me, just to make it easier to go out," Qi Jie said casually.
"What kind of family is this?" Yu Rui rarely complained.
"Uh." Qi Jie looked embarrassed. She talked to me!
"They're just people who do some business in the third district and have some assets."
Xu Gezhen's lips twitched. This wasn't something that could be bought with a little wealth!
"Huh?" Ye Bufan was taken aback: "That's not right, but you came to my house that night to freeload?"
"I really have nowhere to live in District 7," Qi Jie said seriously. "And I also have nowhere to live in District 11."
Shang Wu remained silent, then quietly said, "What about the other districts..."
"Oh, they all own some properties."
...
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Qi Jie asked, puzzled.
"Qi Jie, I'll call you Brother Jie now. Can you give me some of the houses?" Ye Bufan blinked.
“Getting a house is nothing. Call me Brother Jie, and I’ll get you a bracelet to wear too.”
"Really?!"
Shangwu lowered his head, thinking to himself, "If I had known, I would have just called him Brother Jie instead of fighting over the dragon beast remains!"
