The Daily Life Of A Cyberpunk Magician

Chapter 193 - 154 My Colleague is a Big Star_2
Chapter 193: Chapter 154 My Colleague is a Big Star_2”Oh—” Jiang Shu settled back into his seat, stretching around the waist with an ambiguous murmur spilling from his lips.

He opened the Thunder Platform and started his wonderful life.

The four spirits alpha, beta, gamma, and delta also instantly crowded around, loving nothing more than to watch the fun unfold.

And Jiang Shu clicked on the trending topics—

Let’s see, who’s the hottest topic today.

Alpha: Who lives in the large police station of the Seventh District—

Alpha Beta Gamma Delta: Police Chief Wolf!

Beta: Tall and burly, with thick armpit hair—

Alpha Beta Gamma Delta: Police Chief Wolf!

Gamma: If solving cases everywhere is your wish—

Alpha Beta Gamma Delta: Police Chief Wolf!

Delta: Then give Jiang Shu a call for help—

Alpha Beta Gamma Delta: Police Chief Wolf!

Alpha Beta Gamma Delta: Busy every day—just adding to the hassle—Wolf—Police Chief—

Jiang Shu: ”...”

Just rhyme already, and shut up, you four.

He looked at the hot search rankings; as expected, the top one was about Police Chief Wolf, especially his verbal duel face-to-fact with the fox. In just a few hours, the viewing numbers had reached a terrifyingly near ten million.

Taking another look at the video, Jiang Shu observed it frame by frame, then nodded in satisfaction.

Good, the moment he realized he was on a live broadcast, he had intentionally disappeared from the camera’s view, basically blending into the background, not showing his face until after the live broadcast had ended.

A magician appearing in such a place, who knows what kind of trends it could set off online.

And with the video about Wolf going viral, the Seventh District police station’s image suddenly became gloriously spotless, and even those supporting the Deception Group were less active.

After all, the waves of online frenzy come one after another; although no one knows what the next mainstream trend will be, at least one can ensure to keep up with the current wave.

And Wolf’s image wasn’t bad either, the type of rugged American tough guy, much more masculine compared to the fox’s cute boyish look, plus the added boost of being a Police Chief...

At least Jiang Shu had already seen plenty of comments about having Wolf’s babies; not only that, but he also spotted a giant poster of Wolf.

The poster featured a full-body image of Wolf with the caption ”Detective Tiger.”

Such a nickname made Jiang Shu feel a bit uncomfortable.

My bro Wolf surely doesn’t have the time to be a moocher, right?

Out of the top ten hot searches, six were related to Wolf and the Deception Group. This kind of heat generates its own traffic, very eye-catching and money-making.

The tenth-ranked hot search was a video titled ”The Real Identity of Magician Jiang Shu is Actually...” Out of curiosity, Jiang Shu clicked to watch.

The video analyzed how Jiang Shu as a magician could have become the mastermind behind the Deception Group and plotted so many Deception cases. At the end of the video, the uploader seriously talked about how Jiang Shu started learning magic from scratch.

Yeah, he and Jiang Shu were fellow disciples, except that they fell out over a woman...

The rest of the content required payment to read on another platform.

Jiang Shu then saw a familiar nickname in the top-ranked comment: Gurayi.

”An old man lived by weaving bamboo baskets. One day, tired, he fell asleep. His son saw and decided to help with the work. The next morning, the old man woke up and saw what happened, he panicked and shouted, ’My child, if you can’t weave, then don’t—’”

Jiang Shu: ”...”

How should I put it, Xiaoyi’s way of teasing others still has that special flair.

While watching the video halfway, Jiang Shu received another barrage of calls from Wolf.

Although he didn’t know what was going on, it surely wasn’t anything good.

Assuming it might be some important news, Jiang Shu answered the call.

”Ah ah ah ah ah Jiang Shu Jiang Shu Jiang Shu! Save me!” Wolf’s voice came from the other end of the phone, almost bursting Jiang Shu’s eardrums.

Jiang Shu moved his wristwatch a little further away, only bringing it closer after Wolf had calmed down to his usual state.

Wolf...

Usually not so loud and outspoken, right?

”What’s up?” Jiang Shu asked.

”I’m famous now, do you know?!” Wolf said loudly on the other end of the phone.

Jiang Shu nodded in response, ”Hmm, congratulations, you’ve become famous.”
