Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: Chapter 24 Chuan, something big has happened! (2/2)

Lin Chuan’s mouth twitched.

Captain Li, what’s going on?

I haven’t done anything, just published two novels.

“Captain Li, you’re worrying too much, I’ve always been a law-abiding good citizen,” Lin Chuan said with a bitter smile.

Li Bing nodded his head twice in quick succession: “That’s good, that’s good!”

Whew–

Lin Chuan let out a deep breath.

After leaving Anling Police Station, Lin Chuan boarded the familiar Route 13 bus.

Under the bright sunshine, the bus weaved through towering buildings before finally entering an old district in the east of the city, pulling up at the stop for Happiness Community.

Lin Chuan hummed a tune as he returned to his rented room.

At that moment.

Lin Chuan opened the system panel.

[Current Work: “Swindler”.]

[Status: Released.]

[Popularity Value (Average Subscription): 513/1000.]

“Already have 500 average subscriptions, it seems that live-streaming promotions really work!” Lin Chuan revealed a grin.

Within just a few hours, the subscriptions increased by 400.

The pace couldn’t be called slow!

Should reach a thousand subscriptions soon, maybe even more!

Hit product!?

If “Swindler” could reach an average subscription of 3000, achieving the status of a hit product, it would undoubtedly represent Lin Chuan breaking through a tough barrier and entering a whole new realm.

Similar to a practitioner breaking through a bottleneck, ascending to a higher world.

To rise one level is to see further, see more.

“I’ve been writing for quite a few years now, finally I can see some results!”

At that moment.

Lin Chuan could hardly contain his joy and couldn’t help but let out a sigh.

Let the bullets fly a bit longer!

As the average subscriptions continued to climb, Lin Chuan couldn’t resist opening the author’s backend to see what the readers were thinking and their comments.

However.

The first post he saw made Lin Chuan’s mouth twitch and his face darken.

‘@Han River Cyber Police @Liuhe Cyber Police @Handong Cyber Police @Yichang Cyber Police… I report, the author has written their own personal experiences in the novel, this is definitely a criminal record!’

Thankfully.

Lin Chuan had already been questioned once because of this book and had a record at Anling Police Station.

Otherwise, Lin Chuan would definitely have panicked.

Continuing to read on.

‘It’s so realistic! It’s hard not to suspect that this is an autobiography!’

‘I suggest the police do a background check on the author!’

‘Protection! This is absolutely the most realistic swindler novel I’ve ever read!’

‘Without decades of a swindler career, one absolutely couldn’t write such a flavored novel!’

‘Catch the author alive! Apprehend the criminal suspect, Mr. Lin!’

‘…’

After scrolling through several pages of comments, Lin Chuan’s face darkened even more.

“Better not to look at these comments!”

Lin Chuan spat.

If he continued to read, Lin Chuan might truly start to doubt whether he had actually committed a crime and might end up turning himself in at the police station.

The phrase “leniency for those who confess, severity for those who resist” had imprinted itself in Lin Chuan’s mind from the interrogation room.

Ring ring ring—

Lin Chuan’s phone rang.

“Chuan, there’s big trouble!”

As soon as he answered the phone, Old Wang’s anxious voice came through.

“What happened?”

Lin Chuan was puzzled.

Old Wang immediately said, “Chuan, hurry up and check the Kuai Shou live streaming app!”
