“Naisser_Ren is definitely from Lianjiang City!” Yu Kuangtu said.

Upon hearing Yu Kuangtu say that so confidently, Ren Suo also became curious—actually, he was not afraid that his identity was exposed. If it had really been exposed, Yu Kuangtu would not have called him but would have instead invited him to the Countermeasure Division for a meal.

Yu Kuangtu said, “In the last episode of ‘Over My Dead Body’, there is a scene where someone said a strange sentence that was totally not in line with the style of that era.”

He continued, “At 87 minutes and 36 seconds, when Ren Han was about to kill Liu Bei, Emperor Zhaolie of Han, he said a strange sentence which detracted completely from the typical “elegant speech (yayan)” of the Eastern Han period. He even spoke with the tone and grammar structure of the Lianjiang dialect. If you do not believe me, you can turn on your computer now to watch it.”

Most of the conversations in “Over My Dead Body” were incomprehensible to the majority of people, and they had to guess the meaning of what was being said. Experts had verified that the people in the video indeed spoke with the “elegant speech” structure of the Eastern Han period, which was also the standard form of communication during the Han dynasty.

2000 years later, the time had brought along with it numerous changes, and the Chinese characters were simplified numerous times. Furthermore, much of the spoken tones were passed on by word of mouth, and could even be considered as the least “stable” inherited culture. The Chinese language had evolved several times through such a long time period, although some viewers lamented that “preserving historical accuracy in this area was useless and whoever decided it to be so was silly”.

Nonetheless, viewing the drama series as a foreign show would not make a difference, since there were subtitles.

While speaking to Yu Kuangtu, Ren Suo sat down and turned on his computer. He skipped to the specific time in the video that Yu Kuangtu had mentioned.

“Why should I even consider morality and justice when dealing with a monster like you?! Have a taste of my ax!”

Ren Han, who had always been well-mannered and discerning, suddenly said such a line in an accurate Lianjiang dialect. Numerous bullet comments scrolled across the screen:

“It’s the first time I can understand what he’s saying after such a long time!”

“I’m from Kaiping City of Lian Province.”

“I’m from Lianjiang City, what a trendy phrase he said.”

In the flood of bullet comments, those few comments were not eye-catching, but that was sufficient for the nation to notice.

“You heard that right? What do you think that signifies?” Yu Kuangtu suddenly asked.

Ren Suo replied honestly, “That sentence was probably said by ‘Naisser_Ren’ himself.”

“Bingo!” Yu Kuangtu laughed and said, “That’s what the Tianjing headquarters think too. It is very likely that amongst the historical data collected by ‘Naisser_Ren’ about the Ren family of Practitioners, the audio for that particular scene was lost, so he had to record his own voiceover.”

“Although the line was still said with Ren Han’s voice, the tone and intonation of that sentence must definitely belong to ‘Naisser_Ren’!”

“The Lianjiang dialect is only prevalently used in Lian Province, so we are now launching an investigation with the premise that ‘Naisser_Ren’ is someone from Lian Province!”

“The nation has already decided to set up a specialized task force in Lianjiang City to especially investigate ‘Naisser_Ren’!” Yu Kuangtu said.

Ren Suo pulled on the corners of his lips as he said, “Oh… That sounds great, but what has that got to do with me?”

Yu Kuangtu replied, “In our Countermeasure Division, you are the most knowledgeable with regard to ‘Naisser_Ren’. Furthermore, you are from Lian Province too, and almost all of your guesses so far have been spot on.”

“To form the special task force, the higher-ups have reshuffled talented investigation officials, and our Countermeasure Division also has the privilege to recommend individuals to join the team. However, you are currently a school medic at the Heavenly Institution of Lian, so in theory, you cannot concurrently be involved in the special task force. But you can receive information about the developments of the special investigation as a ‘special adviser’.”

“Your analysis skills are indeed extremely strong, although your Practice talent is mediocre, so you are well-suited to be an analyst behind the frontline. The special task force would have to travel around the entire day to investigate the tracks of ‘Naisser_Ren’, so your position as a ‘special adviser’ is the best arrangement too. However, you still have to provide relevant professional analysis reports to the special task force every month.”

“Previously, I asked you to find out more about ‘Naisser_Ren’ as your research topic. You could take a long time to do that, and it did not matter if you submitted good work. However, if you become a special adviser, the special task force will contact you directly if they have any queries, and you must provide a detailed analysis as soon as possible.”

“If you become a special adviser, not only would you receive an additional reward, you would also be awarded an additional portion of Reiki Stones. But that is also all of the benefits of becoming a special adviser; there are no other achievements.”

“Ren Suo, you are truly a talent, and I truly feel that you would be of help to the special task force. This work may reduce the amount of time you have to Practice, so I can understand perfectly even if you reject this opportunity,” Yu Kuangtu said in a serious tone.

Ren Suo asked, “Thank you Deputy Director for your recommendation. I am just wondering why… you would recommend me?”

Yu Kuangtu said, “It is because you truly have such a skill, and I really want you to contribute to the nation in this area. If you are unable to perform well in the special task force, as the recommender, I will also be humiliated.”

With that said, it was naturally hard for Ren Suo to reject the recommendation. He said, “Alright, I accept the position as a special adviser. How should I contact them?”

Yu Kuangtu replied, “There’s no need for you to contact them. I will report your researcher’s identity to the superiors. Other researchers with strong analysis abilities in extraordinary phenomena would also become special advisers.”

“Most likely, after tomorrow, your intranet account would reflect your special adviser status. When the special task force encounters a problem, they would invite you directly to provide your opinion, and you would need to provide as detailed an analysis as possible within the specified time.”

“Some of the problems may even be classified as secret and only you would be able to see them. Beware, if any of you discloses the secret information, you will be dealt with accordingly under the internal confidentiality regulations,” Yu Kuangtu warned.

After ending the call, Ren Suo stared at his mobile phone, his heart bustling with emotion.

What a great man!

It’s been a long time since I met such a nice person.

Naturally, Ren Suo knew the significance of that recommendation.

To start, he was granted access to the intranet as he had a clean family background, was a university graduate, and was part of the first batch of civil servant Practitioners. It was also the result of him providing limited beneficial suggestions.

Although the information in the intranet was not “top secret”, disclosing that information was still prohibited. Furthermore, as researchers, being able to discuss such information from many locations around the nation was due to the trust of the nation.

Now that Yu Kuangtu let him join the special task force, he would be able to receive first-hand information about ‘Naisser_Ren’. It meant that Ren Suo was a prominent figure in the Countermeasure Division of Lianjiang City.

How great was ‘Naisser_Ren’ now?

Countries around the world were all trying to find out his identity. If he was discovered, his hacker-level abilities to traverse across time eras and extraordinary camera skills were sufficient for all nations to want to get a hold of him. Furthermore, there was absolutely no way to remove his uploaded videos from the internet—how OP is that?

No one was able to find out where the video cameras were placed in the videos that he had recorded. It was almost certain that it was invisible, and it was virtually a camera that could fly—how OP is that?

It was evident that the information that Ren Suo had provided earlier on had allowed him to receive top-tier tasks as a talented researcher, and become a special adviser to the “Naisser_Ren Special Investigation Task Force”.

Of course, what was most important to Ren Suo was naturally the fact that it meant that he could receive the latest information in the investigation of him.

Who would imagine that “Naisser_Ren” would become supernumerary personnel of the Countermeasure Division, and was now even a special adviser to the special investigation task force?

How did the message reply, which Ren Suo had posted blindly that day, turn into an opportunity for him to become a special adviser?

It is hard to predict the future, and only the game can foresee what was to come.

Ren Suo sighed with contentment as he found another excuse for his game playing.
