“Here’s my contact information, Mr. Luo. Please get in touch once you arrive in Hiroshima. Given the late hour, we’ll take our leave now and allow you to rest.
Pleasant dreams!”
With that, the City Lord and his secretary exited the hotel teahouse.
Once they had departed, Long Jianfei entered, questioning, “What did the City
Lord want from you, Little Luo?”
“He’s invited me to partake in a TV show,” Luo Feng replied, a chuckle escaping his lips.

“It’s a treasure hunting program. But it’s all staged—scripted scenarios and pre-planned discoveries. Quite disappointing, really,” Luo Feng sighed, a trace of dissatisfaction tainting his features.
“We should remain cautious. This could be a trap designed to tarnish your reputation,” Long Jianfei warned instantly.
“I have no concerns about that. My reputation speaks for itself,” Luo Feng responded with calm indifference.
“Fair enough. Are you not joining us at the museum?
“No need. Carry on without me. I’ll find you once your tasks are completed.”
“Understood.”
Once Luo Feng made a decision, he rarely deviated from it. After a brief discussion with Long Jianfei on a few matters, they parted ways.
“Weren’t we here because Little Luo wanted to exchange some relics? Why does that goal seem to be sidelined?” A subordinate asked curiously once Luo Feng had departed and Long Jianfei had returned to the private room.
“Who knows? He seems to have a unique mission here. But we shouldn’t fret over it. We need to concentrate on our tasks, feign ignorance, and avoid meddling in his mission. Most importantly, we need to keep this to ourselves. This could potentially be a sensitive government affair. If word were to get out, it would spell disaster for our department,” Long Jianfei warned.
Despite their growing doubts, they had to proceed as circumstances dictated.
The following morning, after breakfast with Li Shishi, Luo Feng embarked on the Shinkansen, still accompanied by Li Shishi. After all, they were set to begin their road trip once the TV show was over.
In the meantime, news of Luo Feng’s involvement had already reached the major media outlets via the Hiroshima City Lord. By early morning, reports were sprouting across the internet. Upon disembarking the plane, a grand welcome banner greeted Luo Feng. Despite his troubled relationship with the Japanese officials, his substantial fanbase remained loyal.
A throng of journalists eagerly awaited him, ready to bombard him with questions. Yet, Luo Feng skillfully evaded their inquiries. “Old Luo went to Hiroshima for treasure hunting!”
“Is that true?”
“Absolutely. There are numerous reports about it. Even the Hiroshima officials have confirmed it!”
“Do discovered artifacts in Sakura Country belong to the finder?” “Much like here, anything discovered outdoors belongs to the finder.”
“Ah, so it’s the same abroad!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What historical artifacts could there be in such a tiny place?” “They reportedly paid Old Luo tens of millions to come!”
“Treasure hunting seems profitable. Why wasn’t I invited?”
“Ha, you? Do you have the popularity? Do you have Old Luo’s expertise?”
“Hiring Old Luo for tens of millions seems profitable for them. Old Luo’s popularity isn’t a joke!”
“I just hope Old Luo doesn’t dig up a nuclear bomb! Ha!”
“Stop, if it explodes, he could only dig up fragments.”
Upon his midday arrival in Hiroshima, Luo Feng was instantly swarmed by journalists wielding cameras. The City Lord personally greeted him, saying, “Mr. Luo, welcome to Hiroshima!”
“Hello, Mr. City Lord!”
Luo Feng offered a respectful bow, and the City Lord reciprocated with an even deeper one. As it was lunchtime, the City Lord naturally invited Luo Feng to dine with him. Furthermore, he hinted mysteriously, “There will be a few guests who I believe will pleasantly surprise Mr. Luo!”
“Guests?” Luo Feng pondered. Given the nature of the treasure hunting show, which seemed to resemble a variety show in its pacing, it was likely they’d invite a few popular celebrities from Hiroshima’s TV station or even a big-name star from Sakura Country. Luo Feng anticipated female guests, preferring their presence over their male counterparts. He had always had a distaste for the male celebrities of Japan.
“Yes, Mr. Luo, some guests. And they are all quite charming and kawaii!” The City Lord chuckled. Given Luo Feng’s celebrity status, they wouldn’t invite run-of-the-mill guests. To maximize audience engagement, they needed more personalities to boost traffic. After all, the moon often needs the stars to enhance its glow, and Luo Feng was no different.
“Well, I’m somewhat looking forward to this!” Luo Feng chuckled, nodded, and joined the City Lord in his car, heading off to lunch..
