The Real Way to Cultivate in the City-Chapter 46: With the Right Hoe, Even the Hardest Corner Can Be Dug Out
"Captain, the opponent is most likely from the Hidden Cultivation Association. How should we handle this?"
The existence that can properly control three contained objects, who else could it be but a member of the Hidden Cultivation Association?
The existence of the Hidden Cultivation Association has given headaches to the managers of various cities.
There’s much speculation about when this organization was founded and in what form it exists, but no definite conclusion.
Perhaps, once upon a time, a city had a conclusion.
That was fifty years ago...
The Extraordinary organization of a city caught a member of the Hidden Cultivation Association and obtained key insights about the association through violent interrogation.
As the first city to know the secrets of the Hidden Cultivation Association!
They publicly declared in the Extraordinary Realm at that time that they would hold a press conference to reveal the secrets of the Hidden Cultivation Association.
On the day of the press conference, the entire city and all life fell into a cycle.
Within that city, the survival state of people, animals, plants, and even microorganisms froze on that day, the day they declared they would hold the press conference...
Extraordinaries tried to investigate or rescue that city, but all returned with no success.
If an Extraordinary was stubborn enough to stay in that city for seven days, they could never leave!
Stubborn for seven days and directly meet their demise...
To this day, no one knows why, but it absolutely has something to do with the Hidden Cultivation Association!
Besides that incident, the Hidden Cultivation Association hasn’t caused any bad Extraordinary events.
And in recent years, there are rumors that the Hidden Cultivation Association and the Extraordinary Universal School are not on good terms...
The Extraordinary Universal School might have some secrets of the Hidden Cultivation Association, but they won’t disclose them.
Hmm...
Not many city Extraordinary organizations dare to ask.
After all, even after fifty years, at two o’clock in the afternoon, tuning into a specific radio channel, everyone can hear that passionate voice—
"Welcome to Youshan City, and thanks to our friends listening via radio, I am the head of the City Management Team in Youshan City. Today, I’m going to announce to the Extraordinary community worldwide the secrets of the Hidden Cultivation Association..."
Then, the city’s time would return to "the afternoon of the day before."
One person, saying it every afternoon at two o’clock, for fifty years without revealing the secret...
Whoever wants to listen can listen!
With various legends and stories of the Hidden Cultivation Association flashing through his mind, the captain of the City Management Team said:
"Let things be as they are."
"Alright."
...
City Management Team.
In the interrogation room.
"According to the Ke Chen City Extraordinary Management Regulations, your action of influencing ordinary people’s behavior with Extraordinary Power requires five days of confinement. Can you accept this?"
"You promise not to disclose today’s events!"
"We are professionals, all Extraordinary records will be strictly confidential!"
"You promise not to post a missing person notice online!"
"We are professionals, within Ke Chen City, we will downplay all events involving Extraordinary Power!"
"Okay, then I accept."
"Alright, I’ll print the transcript and the decision document. If there are no problems, please sign your name."
After a few pages of paper were ejected from the printer, the man in horn-rimmed glasses and suit reviewed them before solemnly signing—
I have read it.
"Uh... this Extraordinary comrade, you need to sign your real name or code name."
"This is my code name— ’I have read it.’ Don’t you think it’s a powerful nickname?"
Interrogation personnel: ???
After signing everything with ’I have read it,’ he stood up and, following the staff’s guidance, went to the confinement room...
"During these five days, ’I have read it,’ you need to reflect deeply. Since you haven’t directly harmed our city, we will not ban your contained object’s power."
"Alright, thank you, leadership, I will definitely reflect well, thoroughly reflect."
As the door to the confinement room closed, the originally quiet space suddenly became lively.
"Brother, why are you here?"
"Brother, how long are you in for?"
"Brother, you didn’t have your powers banned, you must have strong backing! Can you help me get out sooner?"
"..."
In the confinement room, everyone is an Extraordinary who has done something wrong.
Those who have been imprisoned long want to know outside information...
But for ’I have read it,’ who just arrived at Ke Chen City, he isn’t familiar with it, but he’s kind-hearted!
With a push of his horn-rimmed glasses, each confinement room suddenly had a phone.
"I’m not very familiar with the outside, everyone can check for themselves."
"Whoa, thanks, boss!"
"Legendary boss, you’re eternal!"
"Boss, you’re like my reborn parent!"
"..."
How could anyone longing to understand the outside world resist the temptation of a smartphone?
When those people pick up their phones, their eyes light up, the feeling of happiness simply unstoppable!
And the best way to use a phone is—
lying sideways, using the thumb to swipe across the phone interface.
At this moment, only the Dog Trainer and Zhen Haoren weren’t looking at their phones...
The Dog Trainer was curled up in a corner, hugging his knees, except when eating.
Zhen Haoren sensed something was amiss...
"Who exactly are you?"
Zhen Haoren kicked the phone in front of him hard, and as it traced an arc through the air, it dissipated like smoke and mist.
As expected, it’s fake!
Under these circumstances...
With Zhen Haoren’s superpower being sealed...
The choice he could make was:
"Report..."
Zhen Haoren wanted to call for people! Wanted to report to the organization!
But in the next second, he felt so happy...
How could he be so happy...
He felt happier now than he did when his abilities were flourishing a second time...
"Kukukukuku..."
This isn’t right!
Quick, think of something sad.
I lost thirty million! I ought to be sad!
Hahaha, most of what I lost actually belonged to the organization, my personal loss isn’t big!
I have a brain tumor! I ought to be sad!
Hahaha, fortunately I discovered it early, early discovery, early treatment!
I, a loyal mid-level cadre under the banner of the Gluttonous Legislator of the Extraordinary Universal School, was actually captured by ordinary Extraordinaries from the City Management Team of Ke Chen City! This time...
I ought to be sad!
Hahaha, luckily I got caught, otherwise I’d be worrying about the affairs of the Extraordinary Universal School these few days, working is too exhausting, working is impossible, hey, now that I’m caught, it’s rest, it’s play...
Hahahahaha... I’m too happy!
Zhen Haoren clutched his belly, laughing until tears came out.
"You, really, how can you be such a tattletale?" I Have Read It was sitting by the bed, tiptoeing, shaking his leg.
The faster he shook, the happier Zhen Haoren laughed.
"Brother, stop, I was wrong, let’s call a truce!" Zhen Haoren raised both hands, indicating he would no longer resist.
I Have Read It stopped shaking his leg...
The Elder said, shake your leg too much, lose wealth.
"Brother, your power should be controlling emotions similar to happiness, right? The phone we saw and the power you just made me laugh with should essentially be the same!"
After adjusting his emotions, Zhen Haoren said confidently.
He hadn’t even suspected the Hidden Cultivation Association, hadn’t thought the power before him essentially differed.
After all, people from the Hidden Cultivation Association are too rare, and after that incident fifty years ago, who dares to confine someone from the Hidden Cultivation Association?
Even if their Extraordinary Universal School is at odds with the Hidden Cultivation Association, it’s always direct members versus members!
Since this person is confined here, it must be a target of Ke Chen City’s City Management Team!
Though his power wasn’t sealed, being confined is being confined!
Given a good shovel, no corner won’t crumble!
This time, I didn’t invite White Impermanence into the organization, but here, I can invite this person away!
If the east doesn’t shine, the west does, with twists and turns ahead, a glimmer emerges in the dark, fortune comes after misfortune...
"Brother, being confined here, surely you’re angry at the City Management Team of Ke Chen City, surely you want revenge, just join my organization, your future will have a day where you can hold your head high."
"What organization?" I Have Read It asked curiously.
This person, even when confined, how come he’s still so confident.
"Extraordinary Universal School! I’m not a regular member, I’m under the Gluttonous Legislator’s effective..." Zhen Haoren began reciting the speech originally prepared for White Impermanence, but before he finished...
Hahahahaha, he’s too happy...
I Have Read It continued shaking his leg, rolling his eyes, this person is so hilarious, recruiting up to the Hidden Cultivation Association?
Don’t know the Hidden Cultivation Association and the Extraordinary Universal School are at odds?
Oh...
He might not know I’m from the Hidden Cultivation Association...
Hmm...
I shouldn’t expose myself as being from the Hidden Cultivation Association, if discovered by this person, if he spreads it around, reports I was confined, how can I face anyone?
Moreover, the Elder said, when encountering the Extraordinary Universal School, give them a lesson...
They’re all bad seeds!
...
While Zhen Haoren was "happy," Lin Hao wanted to continue trying to see if there would be new changes in the log...
