[Gossip System + Satisfying Comeback + Urban Suspense]
Wu Luowan is called into the conference room. On the table is a "Voluntary Resignation Agreement." Her attendance sheet says she's been late seven times, even though she's never missed a day.
The real reason: Last night, while fetching her charger, she glanced at the director's unlocked computer. In the trending-topic control panel, "Removed," "Suppressed," and "Pinned" were lined up neatly.
The director smiles kindly. "Your parents still live in the old part of town, right? The stairwell's narrow and dark. Older people are always afraid of falling."
She has no choice but to sign.
On her way out, she buys a meat bun and gets a message on her phone: "Say another word and your whole family will disappear."
The bun is still hanging from her mouth. She freezes in place.
Blacklisted by the industry, cut off by her friends, unable to pay rent, and third on the blacklist of the criminal underworld. She curses, "If only I had a gossip system!"
The System actually appears.
Wu Luowan: "I avoided trouble so hard I got a System, and even leveled up along the way."
Her first mission is to save the resident in Apartment 302 downstairs. Then she starts exposing health supplements, predatory student loans, pyramid schemes, and an MCN agency that abuses cats. Every operation brings another wave of people after her.
Wu Luowan realizes that all the victims are old neighbors who spoke up for her family back then. Someone is deliberately targeting them.
Ten years ago, her family was burned to the ground. The news report said, "Fraudster commits suicide by fire to escape justice."
I took down one of their criminal operation's branch offices and found half a family photo. On the back, it said: "I have the other half. - Wei."
