The Anchor's Convergence Point: Police Can't Keep Up

Is This the Most Honest Shop?

In the Shanghai Market Supervision Bureau, the atmosphere was tense. Ding Zhen's revelations about the market's unethical practices weighed heavily on the officials. They were frustrated by their inability to control these widespread issues. Hearing Ding Zhen discuss the unspoken rules of the market further soured their mood, as it highlighted their failures in market management.

The bureau members remained silent, each lost in thought and frustration. Finally, the head of the meeting ordered a thorough investigation to identify and shut down all such dishonest vendors. His anger was palpable as he demanded immediate action.

Meanwhile, Chu Qian was engrossed in her system interface, surprised at how quickly she had reached the level to participate in a lottery. She eagerly chose to draw and received an enhancement to her physical abilities, feeling a surge of strength and heightened senses.

Ding Zhen, noticing Chu Qian's distraction, checked if she was alright. Chu Qian reassured him with a smile, attributing her preoccupation to a happy thought.

Ding Zhen then assisted Chu Qian in selecting seafood. He carefully picked modest quantities, perfectly suiting a single person's appetite. The live stream viewers praised Ding Zhen's integrity and contrasted his behavior with the previous dishonest vendor. The officials from the Market Supervision Bureau also watched, relieved to finally see a decent vendor, considering promoting Ding Zhen as a model for others.

Chu Qian, still somewhat skeptical, asked about the pricing. Ding Zhen pointed out the clearly marked prices on the shelf. He weighed the selected items, totaling three pounds, and asked Chu Qian how she wanted to be charged. As he was about to take the seafood inside, Chu Qian suddenly placed her phone on the scale, creating a tense moment.

The viewers in the live stream were anxious, speculating whether this was another trick. There were concerns about the scale being rigged, and some suggested that Ding Zhen's earlier kindness might have been a ploy to gain sympathy and trust.

The Market Supervision Bureau officials were also on edge. If Ding Zhen's scale turned out to be dishonest, it would be a significant blow to their reputation, possibly leading to reprimands and criticism.

The viewers urged Chu Qian to move the camera to show what was happening, while the Market Supervision Bureau braced themselves for the outcome, hoping not to face further embarrassment.
