The argument continued into the evening.

"Alright, everyone, stop arguing. I already uploaded this person's account to the monitoring station this afternoon, and they've replied."

In the livestream chat, Great God Wei opened the reply email from Tencent's tech station. Under the watchful eyes of millions of viewers, the email response clearly stated: [No anomalies found in the account].

"Damn, this guy's actually clean?" Little Smart stood beside Great God Wei, dumbfounded.

Great God Wei nodded, muttering, "I never thought he had any issues from the start. Now that we've checked, it turns out he's a super sniper expert."

Forever, standing nearby, clicked his tongue in amazement and said, "This guy's sniping skills are even better than Gu Cun's."

"Don't even talk about that ungrateful bastard. Contact this account and see if we can recruit him to our team. We're just in need of a sniper." Great God Wei focused on the ID named [ming], his eyes burning with excitement.

The next day, Jiang Siming arrived at the company as usual, but Wang Jun, Zhou Qiang, and Yuan Bing were late. They had stayed up all night playing PUBG and woke up late in the morning.

They were caught by the district manager and got a severe scolding.

Wang Jun, however, shifted the blame to Jiang Siming, using the excuse that Jiang Siming had taken them out drinking last night, causing their tardiness.

"Little Jiang, cover for us, and I'll treat you to lunch later. You know the consequences if you don't." Wang Jun whispered to Jiang Siming.

Wang Jun often made things difficult for Jiang Siming because his pretty girlfriend favored Jiang Siming, which made Wang Jun jealous.

"Report to the general manager!"

Jiang Siming stood up with a sense of camaraderie, and Wang Jun's face showed a smug smile, but the next moment, his smile froze.

"Report, I didn't take Manager Wang out for drinks last night. They stayed up all night gaming and were late on their own. It has nothing to do with me!"

"Jiang Siming, are you asking for trouble?"

Wang Jun's lips twitched, his eyes unfriendly.

But Jiang Siming wasn't afraid at all. He had long wanted to quit. Previously, he had endured for the sake of living, forced to bow his head.

But now, with the game fragments, he had the confidence to survive, so why endure such grievances?

In fact, no matter how many years Jiang Siming struggled in society, his character never changed.

It was just that for the sake of living, he had to hide his sharp edges.

"Just as well, I don't want to work here anymore. Let me report to the general manager about the various behaviors of Manager Wang Jun, Zhou Qiang, and Yuan Bing in the branch over the past six months."

Jiang Siming stood up, straightened his clothes, and loudly recounted the dirty deeds of Wang Jun, Zhou Qiang, and Yuan Bing over the past six months.

Late arrivals, early departures, having others clock in for them, falsifying performance, exploiting other employees, maliciously altering accounts, and so on.

Jiang Siming listed their actions one by one.

Wang Jun and Zhou Qiang's expressions were quite a sight, but Jiang Siming never looked at them. After speaking, he placed his prepared resignation letter on the table and left gracefully.

The district manager wanted to retain him, but Jiang Siming insisted on leaving, so he had no choice but to vent his anger on Wang Jun and the others.

Back home, Jiang Siming felt a sense of relief.

Not long after he got home, he received a delivery from Amazon — it was a set of computer equipment he had ordered last night, which arrived this morning.

From today on, his mission and goal were to achieve his life's dreams in PUBG.

Having worked in a computer city before, Jiang Siming quickly set up the computer, installed the system, updated the drivers, debugged the computer, and downloaded the game.

By the end of the morning, everything was ready.

The computer's configuration was mid-range, costing 5,000 yuan. Although he earned 15,000 yuan in PUBG yesterday, Jiang Siming was still cautious with his spending for now.

His family wasn't well-off, his parents were always in poor health, and he had a younger sister in middle school. The family burden was heavy.

Otherwise, Jiang Siming wouldn't have so easily succumbed to societal pressures.

For now, he put those thoughts aside and logged into the game again, decisively starting a solo match.

The computer he set up himself was much better than those in internet cafes.

"Fragments, fragments, I want fragments!"

Muttering to himself, Jiang Siming entered the game. As soon as the plane took off, he parachuted immediately.

From the sky, Jiang Siming could overlook the entire map. If fragments spawned, he could see them from above.

"There it is!"

Jiang Siming was delighted to find a spot on the edge of the map, a wild point, glowing with white light.

These automatically spawned fragments were hard to come by, maybe one in dozens of games. Getting one in the first game was a great start!

Overjoyed, Jiang Siming flew towards the wild point.

Meanwhile, in the Shark Streaming Platform's livestream chat, in SillyGirl's stream, who had become the PUBG Queen on Shark earlier than Tuan Tuan, the atmosphere was lively.

"Today, my hand feels on fire. Wasn't that M4 spray control just now awesome? I'm telling you, I got sixth place just now, and this time I'm getting a Chicken Dinner!"

In the livestream chat, on camera, a pure and beautiful girl spoke with great momentum.

Who could imagine that this girl, who looked like a pure and lovely jade, was actually a total tomboy, often channeling 'Li Kui' with a full-on macho vibe, sometimes acting coy to trick strangers, earning her fans' nicknames like old hag, coy queen, pair of A's, Shark's top stewardess...

(Proofreader: Li Kui, from the classic Chinese novel Water Margin, symbolizes rugged masculinity and bold, aggressive behavior.)

For her 'unrealistic claims,' the viewers didn't believe a word.

"If you get a Chicken Dinner, I'll eat shit, mark my words."

"Do you have any idea how you got that sixth place? Old hag! You camped the whole game! Killed one person!"

"Are you and Tuan Tuan besties? The two of you could brag your way to the sky."

"Let's have a competition, see if I don't make you cry!"

Seeing these bullet comments, SillyGirl angrily blew her bangs and 'roared,' "Let's do it! Bet on me getting a Chicken Dinner, ten to one odds!"

With a snap, the betting opened.

Immediately, countless people placed bets, but 99% of them bet against her, even though the odds were only 0.1, they eagerly placed their bets.

"Bet 3,000 fishballs, waiting to collect."

"Giving away fishballs in broad daylight? The streamer is so generous."

"All in, hehehe, how can I not take free fishballs."

"Bet against the fishballs, villa by the sea, a wise saying in SillyGirl's stream."

Hearing these comments, SillyGirl felt a pain in her chest, even if it was just a pair of A's, it still hurt...

"Fine! Great! Don't regret it later! Closing the bets!" SillyGirl angrily closed the betting.

Looking at the betting results, the fishballs bet on her getting a Chicken Dinner 'soared' to 5,000, while those betting against her reached over 600,000!

If she lost this round, she'd be wiped out.
