Chapter 607: Chapter 607: Please Choose Your Mentor_1

"Is this what you call ’decent shooting skills’?"

Guan Lili’s eyes were almost shooting fire, she had ample reason to believe that Song Lan was sent by heaven to punish her, with the sole purpose of ruining her reputation!

Song Lan admitted that the situation did look like he had intentionally caused a filming incident, but, in all conscience, he really did just fire a random shot.

The culprit was an anesthesia gun’s bullet.

It was the bullet that had charged towards a crew member on the side of the road on its own.

And he hadn’t lied; he believed that, after Lu Xiang’s guidance, his shooting skills had indeed made significant progress. Although not on par with a professional like Lu Xiang, he was still quite competent among ordinary citizens.

Lu Xiang had told him to practice aiming to shoot whatever he pointed at, and he was now very close to reaching this goal.

Right now, he was in the "shoot whatever he pointed at" phase.

"Cut out that part just now, you, take the place of the ’bystander,’ and call back the leader of the Flying Car Gang. Let’s do it again!"

Guan Lili’s near-roar of on-site coordination had everyone’s heart in their throat—they hadn’t seen the director this irate in a long time.

"I don’t think that’s necessary."

A shadow descended from the sky and landed behind the leader of the Flying Car Gang. Before the leader could react, the figure picked him up from the motorcycle, lifted him over his head, and then raised his right knee, cracking the leader’s head against it like snapping a piece of wood.

The leader of the Flying Car Gang didn’t even have the chance to scream before plunging into complete unconsciousness.

The tall man looked down at the criminal in his hands without a shred of mercy, tossing him beside the road as if he were discarding trash.

"Lili, you should know that the work of a rescuer cannot be achieved overnight. To become an excellent rescuer requires a long process of hard work and accumulation."

"Engle."

The man’s arrival immediately cast a shadow over Guan Lili’s eyes.

His seeming crime-fighting action had actually cut off their retreat. The injured ’bystander’ could be replaced at any time. Even if Song Lan’s marksmanship was rushed, by removing all the anaesthetic rounds before the next shoot, she refused to believe there would be any issues.

However, Engle’s treatment of the leader of the Flying Car Gang had made it impossible to continue the shoot.

Even the company couldn’t produce a locally infamous criminal out of thin air in a short time.

Especially in recent times in District Seventeen, finding a thug similar to the leader of the Flying Car Gang wasn’t easy.

Engle’s recent blow had left the leader of the Flying Car Gang crippled, and he was likely never to ride a motorbike, flaunting through the city again.

"I recall the company did not invite you to today’s shoot."

"But you can’t deny that I’m right."

Engle glanced at Song Lan with disdain, having witnessed everything that had happened. "Even though he is one of the only two to return from the expedition, he is far from being an outstanding rescuer. In my opinion, this young rescuer is in dire need of a mentor."

This trip of his wasn’t in vain.

After all, to see the director of the publicity and planning department of Polaris Alliance getting so angry that she had a public outburst was indeed a rare event.

"That proposition has already been vetoed by those above."

The two were at loggerheads, which left Song Lan in confusion.

He vaguely remembered that Lu Xiang had mentioned that Engle had held her up in the office to allow Guan Lili and her team to personally come and burgle the house. However, judging from the way the two were interacting now, they did not seem to be working together seamlessly.

"Let’s call it a day for the shooting. You guys go ahead and take those two to the prosthetic hospital."

Guan Lili waved her hand dismissively at her assistant. She didn’t want to exchange any more superfluous words with Engle and, after making the final arrangements, she took out her car keys and pressed a button. The luxury sedan parked across the street automatically drove over and stopped by the curb.

She gave Song Lan a look, "Get in, I’ll take you back."

"There’s no need to rush."

A large hand pressed against the car door, and in the blink of an eye, Engle had crossed the 50 meters to join them. Song Lan recognized at a glance that this was the effect of the Overload system.

Clearly, Engle’s degree of prosthesis modification had also reached a considerably high level.

Facing this oppressive Five Stars rescuer, Guan Lili showed no sign of panic. She spoke coldly, "It seems you want me to call headquarters?"

"I only wish to give this young rescuer the opportunity to make a free choice."

Saying this, Engle took out his electronic business card and placed it in Song Lan’s shirt pocket without waiting for a response, "Young man, if you wish to become a truly excellent rescuer, then contact me through the number above."

Then he raised his hands above his head, showing a harmless gesture, "See, I haven’t made any aggressive moves."

...

Song Lan eventually got into the back seat of the car, although he insisted that he could actually ride home by bike. Guan Lili, however, insisted on him getting into the car and even arranged for a driver to help ride his bicycle back home.

The low pressure lasted for nearly ten minutes before Guan Lili said bluntly, "Throw the electronic business card he gave you into the sewer, you won’t need it."

"Did you two... have some misunderstanding?"

Song Lan was not a gossipy person.

But he felt that, given the current situation, it was only a matter of time before the feud between Guan Lili and Engle would spread to him.

"Misunderstanding?"

Guan Lili scoffed, "You probably haven’t paid attention to the news since you got back, have you?"

"Indeed, I have not."

"He suffered backlash for some of his comments during the big conscription period, and now his national approval rating has also hit rock bottom. He’s trying everything he can to make a comeback. Simply put, Engle wants to use your popularity to return to the pinnacle as your mentor."

Of course, this proposal was rejected as soon as it was submitted.

Engle’s name was now tarnished, and haphazardly pairing him with Song Lan would most likely backfire, possibly even dragging Song Lan into becoming an object of public denunciation.

However, clearly, Engle and his team were not giving up. After the proposal was rejected, he personally came to Sector 17 and even disrupted their filming plan for the day.

"Don’t believe any words he’s said; he’s nothing but a thoroughly selfish devil."

Guan Lili demeaned the Five Stars rescuer to nothing, which made Song Lan faintly feel that their grievances were probably far from just that.

During the conversation, the car had already stopped under Lu Xiang’s apartment building.

Guan Lili opened the automatic car door for him; her hands on the steering wheel, her sharp gaze fell on Song Lan through the rear-view mirror, "And besides, he’s about to run out of luck."
