Chapter 135: Chapter 135 – Police for the First Time!

Max appeared in Midnight Heist's Lobby, in the bar he last logged out from. Because the bar was secluded, on the corner of the Lobby, it was devoid of people and loved by those finding solace and playing alone.

"We're back! Without waiting any further, let's start matchmaking!"

Because he had played 3 times, the game had registered his skill level. Thus, it wasn't hard for him to find a match.

[Match Found.]

[Map: Urban – Midnight Club.]

[Your role is as... a Police!]

[Target: Unknown. Protect the club from the thieves!]

"Oh?" After looking at the message, a surprised sound escaped his lips. His prayer was answered.

But he had no time to appreciate it as he had already been transferred into a velvet room. Three other players were in the room, all dressed in a suit and sunglasses.

The police's attire, unlike the thieves, was different according to the map. For the beach map, it would be a security guard. And for the midnight club map, they would dress like a professional bodyguard with a proper dress code.

Finding the new players standing on the side, Max first greeted them.

"Hello! Good luck and have fun."

Many players in VR games often talk to each other, playing seriously to get victory. However, there was an instance where they were either shy or just silent.

And this time... It seemed like he had three silent teammates. They only looked at him and nodded their heads without saying anything back.

'What the hell?' He thought. It was so awkward that he only chuckled dryly.

— He got silent lol

— How unlucky

— Being police and getting the silent treatment

— Who the heck are they? Peanut96, noobieslol616, and that ladynum1men.

— Find them! Burn them! Make them speak!

— Ah, he finally got them. Those who don't talk in Midnight Heist are usually trolls

— lolol, the fourth match is silent. How unlucky

"Don't worry, guys. I have never counted on my teammates before." He casually said it as he strode down the hallway. Each time he passed a guest, he would poke their shoulder to see their reactions. "I have plans."

The normal NPC would just ignore him and walk past. Those with fancy clothes would frown and look at him with disgust or anger. Their reactions were relatively different from each other, but they followed a certain pattern.

And if the NPC didn't follow such a pattern, it could be deduced that he was a player.

Poke.

"Oh, sorry."

The guest in glittering clothes suddenly apologized when Max touched his shoulder. He looked at said guest and smiled widely. Then, he took out his handcuff and pushed him to the ground, cuffing his arms behind his back.

"Wha–"

"You're under arrest, Mr. Thief."

Click!

When the handcuff clicked, the guest's appearance suddenly changed. He turned into a masked person wearing black clothes and a violet vest. It was one of the thieves.

"How?!" He raised his voice while looking over his shoulder.

"Hehe, a secret." Max chuckled evilly as he stood up. There was no need to answer the thief's question.

And, to prevent the police players from colluding with the enemy, he decided to threaten them a little bit as he continued his walk down the dance floor.

"I apprehend a thief. Don't do anything stupid; I will report you guys to Biozone Entertainment if you do. Just so you know, I am acquainted with the higher ups! I believe you don't want to get banned."

— Oh...

— So shameless! It's only been two days since he became an affiliated streamer, but he has used Biozone's name already!

— Breeze: So you're a troll? Follow my command or you will get banned!

— Isn't this dangerous? They can use this to spread a rumor

— What danger? It's their 4ss that get in danger!

— We can just deny the accusation. Breeze for life!

"Right, there is no need to worry." He said, but inside, he was a bit worried.

'I won't get in trouble, right? I only threatened them a little out of frustration, and that was just a joke.'

Well, if he truly got into trouble and created a drama, thanks to this, that meant he had become a real streamer. A juicy drama was always part of a streamer's life.
