Live Streaming: Great Adventure in the Wilderness-Chapter 592 - 589: Taking the Blame

The arrival of the helicopter was unexpectedly efficient, as if it had been waiting on standby, just waiting for everything to conclude before stepping into the limelight.

The heat churned, and its texture was disrupted by the wind.

Bi Fang squinted up at the helicopter hovering in mid-air, his hair tips quivering slightly under the rotor wash. His pupils trembled for a full half minute, but he eventually calmed down.

Perhaps he had surmised as much all along.

No matter how perfectly one covers their tracks, with modern investigative techniques, it is only possible to delay the inevitable. If one wishes to leave no trace, they must do nothing at all.

This wasn’t a matter of capability but a fact—the adage "without action, there is no consequence" holds true.

Bi Fang once told his audience about the golden rule proposed by the father of forensic science, Edmond Locard: "Every contact leaves a trace," which is used to track prey.

This applied to himself just as well.

Bi Fang didn’t know why these people wanted to capture Bosen. Maybe he was indeed a poacher, or perhaps it was some other misunderstanding, but the Japanese People weren’t fools.

Unless someone suddenly came forward to take on all the blame, that could bring the matter to a conclusion.

Is filming outdoors without permission a crime?

Yes, and no.

If taken seriously, it could be construed as investigating enemy intelligence or surveying terrain.

Would Japan deliberately overlook it?

Clearly impossible.

Bi Fang thought he was ready, but when the moment came, he still felt a tinge of unease. Fortunately, he had made up his mind long ago.

He sighed softly and stood in the wind, waiting for the helicopter to descend.

The audience was completely unaware of the background, and even less why the helicopter arrived so early. They took it as a coincidence or a testament to the crew’s high efficiency, and they even had the mood for jokes.

[666, Japan’s pretty fast with this]

[It’s not Japan, it’s Yōki]

[Everyone, mind your manners, use civilized language, what’s wrong with Yōki? How can you be so discriminatory? Can’t you share a little of the love you have for little flies and mosquitoes with them?]

[Who the hell loves little flies and mosquitoes...]

[So there’s nothing to share lol (Dog’s head)]

[666, I was strongly against Teacher Wen leaving the literary world]

[Stop bluffing, you were the one who voted in favor]

In a burst of laughter, a long comment streaked across the screen.

[The smell of tobacco in the air, the hum of air conditioners nearby. Mr. Bi’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was immensely powerful: "I am leaving the literary world." The once noisy hall was now dead silent.]

[A young reporter shot up, trembling as he spoke: "Are you really going to leave... to leave the literary..." "My mind is made up, no need... to say... more."]

[Mr. Bi’s voice choked up, tears moistened his eyes, and with a sigh, he turned and left, leaving behind the literary world he dearly loved... "I disagree!" that statement echoed throughout the hall.]

[That’s right, I was the one who said it. Because the teacher wanted to leave the literary world, I was strongly against it. But he was as stubborn as a mule. The more I opposed him, the more he wanted to leave. Even though I yelled till I was hoarse, urging him not to be rash, my hoarseness couldn’t bring back his receding figure. He was leaving not just this hall, but the entire literary world.]

"Hahaha!"

Seeing the comments, even the somewhat melancholic Bi Fang couldn’t help but laugh. His mood suddenly improved, no longer anxious, waiting only for the final outcome to arrive.

The helicopter let down its ladder, and the people descending were indeed not the original three crew members, but one by one, police officers in uniform, with batons at their waists, and bulging waist packs, stuffed with suspicious items.

The bustling live chat room saw a significant drop in comments, as many viewers realized that something was amiss.

What’s this all about, why have the police arrived?

Bi Fang laughed, he serenely prepared to face everything...

"I’m so sorry, Mr. Bi, there was an incident on the road, and coincidentally, we received your request, so we came right over. I deeply apologize that this time we will be taking over Ikeda’s calculations," the lead officer bowed and, disregarding Bi Fang’s surprised reaction, began working with the two people behind him.

Afterward, the three of them simply left Bi Fang aside and went straight to the Black Bear. Their eyes and tone were filled with surprise, yet much less fearful than Ikeda’s trio and even non-existent.

After all, they were armed, a far cry from the three ordinary people with Ikeda, and two of them had even hunted black bears before.

During the bear infestations, it was mainly the police who hunted using firearms in hand.

However, faced with a live, bound Black Bear, they were still quite curious, and one even reached out to touch it, jumping back in fright when the bear twitched.

"Oh ho ho, it’s really a live bear, eh? Ma Sheng, come and feel this, the texture is quite something!"

"This is amazing, the first black bear to be captured alive, right?"

"This is incredible, well-deserved for the man with the utmost freedom on this planet, the strongest in this hunting season; even the Yōki Hunter is no match!"

In the trio’s tone, there was not the slightest bit of caution or guard against Bi Fang, only admiration and reverence.

The audience also relaxed.

[Hahaha, were they so scared of a live bear that they sent the police?]

[I always thought that Ikeda was a scaredy-cat]

[What a disgrace to us Japanese People!]

"How are we going to measure this? Take it back alive, just like that? Seems a bit troublesome."

"But that’s the only way, isn’t it? I can’t believe I don’t know how to handle this, hahaha."

"Mr. Bi has already tied it up for us, what a thoughtful gesture!"

Bi Fang was puzzled... and shocked.

What... what’s going on?

Bi Fang was slightly astonished in his heart, yet he maintained his composure, pacing around a bit closer, and testing the waters, he asked those taking record, "What happened?"

The previously jovial officers exchanged glances, their expressions became a bit more solemn, and they answered earnestly, "We are truly sorry, Mr. Bi. I know you might have several doubts, but trust me, none of this will interfere with your hunting. On the bright side, there’s good news: you’re the only hunter left on the Kii Peninsula now."

"What happened to Mugalen?" Bi Fang’s heart tightened. That guy hadn’t gotten into trouble, had he?

Bi Fang had a connection with Mugalen; anyone who had watched the past shows would understand, so the three showed no suspicion in their reaction to Bi Fang but still shook their heads.

"Sorry, Mr. Bi, we can’t disclose the specifics. Please, go on with your hunting," they said.

After that, the three no longer engaged in conversation with Bi Fang and simply carried out their tasks at hand.

At last, they reported the score to the dazed Bi Fang and left with the live bear in tow.

It wasn’t until nightfall that Bi Fang finally learned everything from Richard and fell into silence. He had never expected such a turn of events.

Mugalen had been arrested.

The big man from England had voluntarily taken the fall.
