Chapter 9 - Submit A Bug

"Tsk, I initially believed the host was innocent, but he was banned for breaking the rules."

"F*ck, I trusted you, but it seems like you have a problem. You said you didn't cheat, but what's the difference?"

"So what? Could a god abuse players just because they were using a bug? Do you have a conscience?"

"You possess this skill, yet you use cheap tricks. Are you crazy?"

"Isn't your skin as thick as city walls? How can you do such a thing?"

"How could there be such a person? I was wondering why you were able to rank up so quickly."

"Oh no, my image of the Racing God has been shattered. I used to think they were a talented player, but it turns out they rely on cheating to win."

"That's right, that's right. Trash streamer, stop broadcasting and get lost!"

...

The comments were all over the place. Zhou Tianhao's face was dark, but he did not respond. Instead, he chose to close the livestream.

Although this was equivalent to acknowledging the official statement, the official statement had absolute authority.

In the eyes of the players, the officials wouldn't simply speak nonsense.

Therefore, once this statement was released, he could not clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River. Whether he closed the livestream or not, he had already confirmed the fact that he had been banned for violating the rules.

As the person involved, Zhou Tianhao knew very well that this was just a counterattack by the officials to prevent him from unbanning his account.

He was the only one who knew if he had broken the rules, even if others might be fooled by such a statement.

"If you're heartless, don't blame me for being unjust!"

Actually, there was another reason why he had chosen to close his live broadcast room. That was because he could only face-slap them once a day and would only be able to refresh it tomorrow.

If he were to counterattack now, he would be satisfied with the face slapping, but he would lose Face Slapping Points. This was another lucky draw opportunity, and he didn't want to waste it.

Hence, Zhou Tianhao chose to make a strategic retreat.

The live broadcast room suddenly went dark, but the bullet comments were still on "Carnival."

"Idiot, you finally admitted it, right? You ran quite fast!"

"Only the internet can give a child like you a place to live. If you dare to do this in front of me in reality, I would beat you to death!"

"Shameless dog, the environment of our domestic games is so bad because of rat sh*t like you!"

"That's right. You're not fit to play games. Hurry up and go to hell!"

..

"Done!"

In the Public Relations department, Qi Jun stood up and said, "That's enough. Not only does it protect our official image, but it also completely gives a proper explanation for this person's ban. He won't be able to explain it even if he opened his mouth ten times. This way, you don't have to think about unbanning him anymore."

"Oh, okay! Thank you, Brother Jun!"

Xiao Ruoyan felt very strange. The matter had clearly been resolved, but she did not feel happy at all.

"It's a small matter. In the future, you just have to do this kind of thing according to my method."

"Yes, I will."

After Xiao Ruoyan finished speaking, she saw that the live broadcast room had suddenly turned black and disconnected. However, the bullet comments were still cursing. She suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness. She folded her hands, lowered her head, and lay on the table for a long time without moving.

Half an hour later, Xiao Ruoyan raised her face. Although her eyes were still lifeless, she was more energetic.

She opened the office software and typed a document quickly.

The content was simple and clear. It was a description of the bug in the new map of Goose Speed, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track.

She wasn't sure how Zhou Tianhao did it, but she felt that since the bug existed, it had to be fixed.

Soon, she printed the document on a piece of paper. When she picked up the paper and was about to leave the Public Relations department to go to the technical department, she happened to meet Qi Jun.

"What are you going to do?"

Qi Jun asked curiously when he saw Xiao Ruoyan walking out with a piece of paper.

"I'm going to submit the bug!"

Qi Jun was taken aback by Xiao Ruoyan's matter-of-fact attitude. "Aren't you only thirty years old this year?"

Her memory was fading so quickly.

Xiao Ruoyan complained in her heart and explained, "Brother Jun, don't you know? You said that you wanted to fix the bug that the streamer triggered. So I prepared a report to submit to the technical department…"

"You... What should I do about you?"

Qi Jun was a little disappointed. "The biggest taboo between departments is to manage too much. The technical department is currently preoccupied with their own tasks. As a Public Relations department, it's best to avoid adding more work for them. Do you think it's likely for the manager to meet with you over tea tomorrow?"

"However, should we simply overlook this issue?"

Xiao Ruoyan appeared confused. Didn't everyone have to work together to make this game good?

Why did he ignore the bug now that he had discovered it? Even informing them was a mistake?

"Do you still not understand why the company has so many departments? It's to separate the responsibilities. No need to concern yourself with matters outside of your control. The technical department will take care of it. I only mentioned wanting to fix the bug in order to address player concerns. Our goal is to appease the people. This is the responsibility of the Public Relations department."

"Won't this bug affect the balance of the game? Do we still not care about this?"

Xiao Ruoyan was still a little unconvinced. She felt that no matter what, she should at least inform them.

Qi Jun saw that he couldn't persuade her, so he simply stepped aside. "Then go ahead. There are many things that are useless to talk about."

"I'll go then."

Xiao Ruoyan pursed her lips and walked through the floors with a trace of stubbornness. She arrived at the entrance of the technical department.

Just as she was about to open the door, she found that the door of the technical department was locked. She needed an ID card to enter.

There was no one around, so she could only wait outside.

Unlike the Public Relations department, no one here knew who she was, nor did they know who she was looking for.

After standing for half an hour, just as Xiao Ruoyan was about to give up, a man wearing a pair of thick glasses walked over. He looked less than 30 years old but already had a pitiful amount of hair. He was obviously a senior programmer.

Looking at the work badge on his chest, he was indeed a member of the technical department.

Xiao Ruoyan was relieved. She quickly walked forward and asked, "Hello, may I ask who I should hand over the bug report to?"

When he heard the word 'bug', the man immediately frowned as if he didn't care how young and beautiful the girl in front of him was.

He asked rather impatiently, "Who are you? Are you new? What bug?"

"No. I'm from the Public Relations department. It's the recently released map, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track. I saw someone showcase a bug that allows them to skip the race track and directly rush to the finish line. This kind of bug is very detrimental to the balance of the game. I think…"

Before Xiao Ruoyan could finish, she was interrupted. The man spoke impatiently, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? What is the Public Relations department doing here? Do you know what a bug is? Who asked you to come?"

Xiao Ruoyan, who did not understand the way the man talked, immediately looked aggrieved. However, she suppressed her anger and sniffed. She said solemnly again, "I wanted to come. I felt that this bug would affect the balance of the game, so I took the initiative to inform you guys and ask you to fix this bug!"

"How much experience do you have?"
