Martial Arts: I Have Diligence Reward System-Chapter 484 - 191: The Second-Rank Gong Ling That Shook the Whole Arena
Leaving the humid area, it was already dawn.
Su Yue checked the time.
Oh no.
There are only a few hours left. By the time I get there, the opening ceremony of the Eastern Martial Arts Academy’s competition will probably be over.
Such a twist of fate.
I might accidentally upset Mu Cheng.
But it’s no big deal, Su Yue trusts in his own looks.
When the girlfriend is upset, looking at my handsome face might dissipate her anger.
Good looks can be quite persuasive!
Besides, I’m just a spectator, it’s not a big deal to be a few hours late since I can’t go on stage anyway.
Time to freshen up.
Picked out a few new clothes, and Su Yue immediately rushed to the station.
It takes at least 6 hours to get from West City to Dongdu City, so I’ll probably arrive just in time for lunch.
This morning’s opening ceremony is definitely something Su Yue can’t catch up with, even if he had wings.
No use worrying.
Have breakfast first, then go buy tickets.
What a coincidence.
All tickets for the day were sold out, they had been pre-sold a few days ago.
Upon further inquiry.
At the Eastern Martial Arts Academy, today is elimination day.
Face-to-face matches, whether it’s the Big Four Martial Arts Schools or Schools A and B, everyone participates. Even in the venue, there are multiple rings for the fights.
Even the Big Four Martial Arts Schools are only sending substitute players, almost nothing worth watching.
So many people choose to depart late today.
Su Yue checked the booked tickets.
Sure enough, tomorrow’s tickets are also sold out.
The elimination rounds last for two full days, during which Su Yue can barely get a ticket.
But on the third day, it’s the top eight advancement round.
Although there are tickets for that day, he’s sure to miss the exciting preliminary rounds.
Su Yue sat on the steps of the ticket hall, plunged into endless frustration.
What should I do?
Can’t exactly run all the way there.
It’s all my fault for not being methodical, not delegating someone to book a ticket in advance.
"Bro, can’t get a ticket?"
At this moment, a scalper approached him.
"Got one?"
Su Yue glanced around, like a secret agent on a covert mission.
"Dude, I’m the one selling tickets, why are you more nervous than I am, relax."
The scalper felt exasperated.
In my years of selling tickets at the station, I’ve never seen someone with better acting skills than me.
"How much!"
Su Yue asked.
"Today’s ticket, 5000.
"Tomorrow’s ticket, 4800.
"The day after tomorrow’s ticket, 4600."
The scalper whispered mysteriously.
"Bro, that’s a bit rough.
"A 300 yuan ticket, you’re hiking it up like this, aren’t you afraid of the Investigation and Arrest Bureau catching you."
Su Yue was surprised.
Scalping tickets is that profitable?
This speculative profiteer, truly detestable.
"Investigation and Arrest Bureau?
"Let me tell you clearly, my last name is Investigation, and my first name is Arrest Bureau.
"My full name is Investigation and Arrest Bureau.
"The West City Investigation and Arrest Bureau, is run by my family."
The scalper looked disdainful.
"Wow, such an outrageous name, I bow to you.
"Could you lower the price a bit?"
Su Yue bargained.
"Since you’re quite handsome, I’ll cut you 200, you’ll get it for 4800."
The scalper thought for a moment and said.
"I’m so handsome, can’t I just flash a smile and have you knock off a zero, how about 800."
Su Yue haggled.
"Kid, are you messing with me?
"Look over there, there’s a military department vehicle from the Yan Gui Corps.
"Next to it is a military department vehicle from the Zhenqin Corps, who knows what huge criminal they might have caught.
"Over there, is a vehicle from the Investigation and Arrest Bureau.
"Of these three vehicles, you can pick any one, I’ll give you 800 instead.
"Young man, messing with me!"
The scalper coldly glared at Su Yue, mocking him with sarcasm.
Do you not check if there’s a decimal point before slashing a zero?
Indeed, at the end of the street, three vehicles were heading towards the station, possibly just passing through.
Screech!
The vehicle from the Zhenqin Corps was the first to stop at the station entrance.
The scalper frowned.
Screech!
The next second, the military vehicle from the Yan Gui Corps also stopped at the station entrance.
Another second later.
The Investigation and Arrest Bureau’s vehicle stopped too.
And judging by its rank, it was one of the highest service levels in the bureau.
The scalper’s heart raced wildly.
The Investigation and Arrest Bureau’s car couldn’t possibly be here to catch me, could it?
Probably not.
I’m just small fry, not worth such high-level logistics.
"Are you Su Yue, needing to get to the Eastern Martial Arts Academy but the station has no tickets? The Yan Gui Corps vehicle is at your disposal."
A lieutenant from the Yan Gui Corps said.
Before Yan Chenyun left, he specially attended to this matter—if Su Yue encountered any difficulties, to keep a constant eye out for him.
"Student Su Yue, we’ve met before, if you need to get to Dongdu City, I can take you there."
A captain from the Zhenqin Corps walked over and shook hands with Su Yue.
"Haha, then it seems I’m redundant. Principal Zhao Jiangtao specifically entrusted the Investigation and Arrest Bureau, in case we saw you, to help you get to Dongdu City. Didn’t expect the military department would be here already."
A deputy director from the Investigation and Arrest Bureau got off.
"Thank you all for your kindness; I’ll take the Zhenqin Corps vehicle. It looks fast."
Su Yue nodded.
He urgently needed to get to Dongdu City.
"Alright."
The captain nodded.
"Mr. Investigation and Arrest Bureau, your ticket prices are indeed a bit steep."
Before leaving, Su Yue glanced at the scalper.
They really are expensive.
"Investigation and Arrest Bureau? What do you mean?"
The deputy director looked at the scalper.
With his years of experience, he could tell at a glance that this was a professional scalper.
"This gentleman said his name is Investigation and Arrest Bureau, and apparently he’s the one running the West City Investigation and Arrest Bureau."
With those words, Su Yue boarded the car and drove off into the distance.
The scalper trembled in front of the deputy director.
"Um... Let me explain... let me explain..."
The scalper was on the verge of tears.
The biggest regret of his life was being too stingy, not slashing the price in advance.
...
Su Yue was still racing on the road.
The opening ceremony of the Eastern Martial Arts Academy had already begun.
