Zhang Goudan swallowed hard and spoke with a hint of anxiety, “I… I’m sorry, Brother Dao. I slept too soundly and didn’t notice the thief.”
Seeing Zhang Goudan’s expression, Li Yidao couldn’t help but roll his eyes.
“Why are you apologizing to me for sleeping? It’s not your fault that there was a thief. Besides, it’s my money, and it’s my carelessness that got it stolen. You don’t need to apologize.”
Zhang Goudan, taken aback by Li Yidao’s words, hesitated but then said anxiously, “But…”
“Alright, stop it. It’s just ten thousand yuan. I can afford to lose that.”
“We can visit a bank later to withdraw some more money when we get off the train, ” Li Yidao said, waving his hand to signal that there was no need to dwell on the matter further.
Zhang Goudan saw Li Yidao’s attitude and remained silent.
However, his eyes still held a deep sense of self-blame.
It had to be said that young people like him were quite rare.
But just as he was about to get up and head to the restroom, he suddenly noticed something at the head of Li Yidao’s bed, or rather, on the wall next to
Li Yidao’s bed.
There was a blood-red symbol—a scythe!
He stared at this scene, feeling puzzled.
Li Yidao, catching his gaze, also looked in that direction.
His brow furrowed, and he followed Zhang Goudan’s line of sight.
His pupils dilated instantly.
Then, his brow furrowed even deeper.
Someone had used blood to draw the shape of a scythe?
And, most importantly, it was above his head!
Li Yidao’s eyes turned ice-cold in an instant.
Someone clearly didn’t want him to go to the northwest.
Even more so, someone didn’t want him to investigate Miner Ermao’s case.
It seemed that his current actions were indeed leading him closer to the truth.
He was gradually approaching a world unknown to most.
“Bro… Brother Dao, this…” Zhang Goudan was now thoroughly confused.
Li Yidao, on the other hand, gestured calmly with his hand, signaling him not to pay too much attention to it.
“The train is about to arrive at the station. Go freshen uD. and then get a wet
towel to wipe this off.”
“Okay, okay,” Seeing Li Yidao’s calm demeanor, Zhang Goudan went to do as instructed.
As for Li Yidao at this moment, he stared at the blood-red scythe symbol, his eyes filled with icy determination.
Yesterday’s pickpocket not only took away his wallet but also drew that scythe symbol to send him a message, a warning.
It was a message telling him that they could take his life at any time, and he should stay out of their business.
As for why they didn’t attack directly, it was quite simple.
Li Yidao’s fame had grown significantly, especially with the ongoing investigation into Miner Ermao’s case.
If something happened to him now, it would only intensify the situation, which wasn’t in their best interest.
Furthermore, it appeared that they didn’t harbor any intent to kill him.
If they truly wanted to harm him, who would end up dead was unknown.
The Grim Reaper’s Protection wasn’t a joke.
Each of Li Yidao’s skills served a purpose.
Five minutes later, Zhang Goudan had successfully cleaned off the scythe symbol.
They had about half an hour left until they would disembark.
The two of them shared a hot pot meal that Li Yidao had bought, with Zhang Goudan looking quite pleased.
Li Yidao, on the other hand, ate while scrolling through his phone.
He was reading the comments from his online followers, which was exactly what he expected.
After all, he had already gained insights into everything through Death Investigation, so he wasn’t surprised by the current results.
However, as he scrolled through his phone, the tone of the comments on his status began to change.
“Brother Dao! Brother Dao! Someone is dissing you! D*mn! I can’t stand it!”
“F*ck! Brother Dao, hurry up and check it out! There’s a guy who calls himself the Cherry Blossom Grim Reaper, and he wants to challenge you to a PK! He says he’s going to finish you off!”
“Oh my god! That idiot is livestreaming killing people!”
“D*mn! He actually did it! Just a moment ago, he followed someone and said they would die from a self-inflicted abdominal wound, and it really happened in less than a minute!”
“D*mn! Are people from Cherry Blossom Country this ruthless? They say they’ll cut open someone’s belly, and they actually do it?”
“This is insane! This guy predicted another death! He followed someone and said they would have a sudden heart attack, and it really happened!”
“Brother Dao! Brother Dao! Someone’s trying to steal your thunder! You can’t just let this slide!”
Seeing these comments, Li Yidao was stunned.
Cherry Blossom Grim Reaper?
What kind of name was that?
Even Li Yidao, up to this point, hadn’t officially changed his name to Grim Reaper Brother Dao.
It was just how people referred to him.
His name was still simple and plain, Brother Yidao Funeral Shop.
But this newcomer directly called himself the Cherry Blossom Grim Reaper!
And not only that, but he had already killed two people online?
This piqued Li Yidao’s intense curiosity.
He didn’t hesitate and immediately searched for the Cherry Blossom Grim Reaper.
At the top of the search results was a video with millions of followers. Li Yidao clicked on it.
A man dressed in cherry blossom-themed clothing appeared in the video.
The video’s surroundings were also quite impressive, likely in a unique cherry blossom-themed room.
His clothing seemed to be custom-made with a white base and pink cherry blossoms.
It gave off a mysterious vibe.
The room was filled with numerous white candles burning, and even the ceiling lights had been specially designed.
The man himself was sitting in a cross-legged position with a profound expression.
Seeing this scene, Li Yidao couldn’t help but be amazed.
Had he been too casual?
Looking at the level of professionalism in this video, from the camera equipment to the carefully crafted environment and the person’s image, it was all meticulously designed.
And then there was himself—just a guy with a smartphone, casually going online.
It seemed a bit rudimentary in comparison.
Li Yidao didn’t spend much time on this video.
Instead, he went directly to the user’s homepage.
He noticed the ongoing livestream and chose to enter.
[“Brother Yidao Funeral Shop” entered the livestream room.]
This was Li Yidao’s promotional method unique to the platform.
Whenever he entered a livestream room, this message would pop up.
With Li Yidao’s entrance, the already lively livestream room erupted once more.
“Brother Dao is here! D*mn! Brother Dao finally arrived!”
“I can’t take it anymore! This pretentious guy needs to face Brother Dao!”
“Exactly! Why would someone from Cherry Blossom come to our country and act like this?”
“Brother Dao is here! Let’s see how he reacts. That guy was just bragging a moment ago!”
“Right! Let’s see Brother Dao in action and show him who the real Grim Reaper
“I don’t like this guy either, but he did take down two people just now. Could Brother Dao be in danger?”
“What are you saying? Brother Dao in danger? Haha… That’s a joke, right?”
“Exactly! Brother Dao is the real Grim Reaper! As for that guy, I even doubt if those two deaths were real!”
“Haha… the one above is spot on! Let’s not waste time talking, let’s watch Brother Dao’s performance!”
“@Brother Yidao Funeral Shop! Brother Dao, start your show! Show this trash what a real Grim Reaper is!”
“Yes, get him!”
“Get him!”
Li Yidao, now in the livestream room, watched the man who held an air of superiority.
He confirmed that this man was indeed from the Cherry Blossom Country.
Initially, he thought it might be a streamer who had no boundaries when it came to seeking attention.
However, his coming forward at this time and directly challenging him made Li Yidao suspicious.
Li Yidao remained silent for a moment, then opened the chat input box.
“I heard you want to take me down? Well, I’m here now.. How do you want to play this?”
