From this, it could be seen that the press conference was very important to all parties.
Soon, Zhang Zhenghuai, who was wearing a police uniform, strode to the podium. Standing in front of the microphone, he exuded a dignified aura.
Initially, there was some commotion among the reporters, but after seeing Zhang Zhenghuai on stage, they all quietened down. The comments of the netizens in the various live-streams became less and less. Everyone’s attention was on Zhang Zhenghuai, curious about what he would say next. “Thank you, media workers, for your attention to this press conference.” Zhang Zhenghuai did not immediately enter the main topic. Instead, he greeted the reporters at the scene politely. Then, he introduced the representatives of the participating parties.
This could be considered an old procedure for the press conference. Whether it was the reporters or the netizens who often watched the press conference, they did not find it novel. Everyone was waiting for Zhang Zhenghuai to rush into the main topic and explain the purpose of this press conference.
Finally, in the silence, Zhang Zhenghuai ended the usual routine. He put the script in his hand aside and looked at the cameras. “l believe our reporters and netizens should have roughly guessed the theme of this press conference. Just like the official announcement a few days ago, as the spokesperson for this press conference, I will officially announce the identity of the hero of Munan and his deeds.’
Even though the reporters had already guessed it, the moment it was verified, there was still a burst of exclamation from the crowd. The netizens were also excited. The originally frozen comments section was flooded with comments again.
“It’s finally here. They should have done this a long time ago. Heroes should be known by everyone.”
“Perhaps they were trying to protect the hero’s identity since they didn’t mention it before. It’s better to be late than not!”
“Hurry up and tell us who the hero of Munan is. What did he do in Munan?”
“Same question! ”
The clamor on the Internet and the silence at the scene formed a sharp contrast. Zhang Zhenghuai did not speak through the speech in his hand. Instead, he looked straight at the reporters and slowly said, “The title of Hero of Munan was given by everyone, and this title has been passed down by us.
We, like all of you, have been through a bleak period of time not long ago. The collapse of Cangluan Mountain caused a large area of landslides, and the hero was buried underground. We did our best to search and rescue for more than half a month, but in the end, we could only announce the sacrifice of this hero.’
Everyone present became serious. They wondered if this hero had actually been sacrificed as everyone had guessed. However, Zhang Zhenghuai did not explain the doubts in everyone’s hearts. Instead, he continued, “This hero has always been fighting with overseas forces to protect China’s interests. Before the Munan incident, this hero had already snatched the national treasure obtained from illegal tomb raiding from the hands of many militants of the overseas forces and returned it to the country.
“During this time, the hero was questioned many times, but this never changed his original intention. Our archeologists relied on this hero’s treasure to finally find an ancient tomb that is of great significance to China’s archeological history. However, the location of the ancient tomb was very special. It was on the Cangluan Mountain and was very close to the border.
“In order to ensure the smoothness of the archeological work, the military and police were working together, but the overseas forces were also restless. This hero stood up again at the critical moment and walked to the border alone as a commoner.
“In the face of many fully armed mercenaries, this hero guarded the tomb path and did not let any mercenaries break in. He ensured the safety of our archeologists and important cultural relics.”
As Zhang Zhenghuai explained, the big screen behind him kept playing some real-time videos. Although the image was blurry, everyone could still see a person standing alone in the narrow mountain pass. Opposite him were tigers and wolves, fully armed mercenaries.
The reporters at the scene were all shocked. The netizens in the live broadcast room had never expected the hero of Munan to have such a magnificent feat. Living in peaceful times, they had always felt that war was very far away from them. It was only through these photos that they truly realized that the war had never been far away and that others had helped to stop it.
Zhang Zhenghuai recounted Su Yun’s story in detail, from snatching the golden foil to guarding the ancient tomb alone.
Of course, he chose to hold back on Su Yun’s cultivation of ultimate techniques. This impact was foreseeable. Once it was made public, the repercussions would be too great. It would subvert the people’s worldview, and it was not suitable to make it public at this time.
At the very least, Su Yun’s cultivation would only be decided after the trend of genetic modification was determined and the people’s emotions stabilized. Even Munan’s story was soul-stirring enough to completely immerse the scene, so everyone seemed to be in the story and witnessing a hero’s magnificent feat.
When everyone learned from Zhang Zhenghuai that this hero did not die in the ruins in the end but escaped with his own strength and had completely recovered, exclamations erupted in the various live-streams..
