Upon receiving the notification, Li Yidao simply glanced at it before deciding to close it.
At this moment, the time-sync comments below the message were flooding the live stream, indicating the high number of people paying attention to it. Among these comments, the name “Brother Dao” appeared countless times.
It couldn’t be helped. It was too shocking.
He didn’t carry out a proper live stream, he just gave his fans short videos.
And to top it off, with just a simple click, he killed six people?
If people didn’t react intensely to this, that would be abnormal, right?
Li Yidao knew he wouldn’t be able to explain himself clearly, so he decided not to bother trying. He might as well take on this business order first.
He was eager to know what kind of reward the system would give him after completing this task.
As Li Yidao arrived at the funeral parlor, he encountered a somewhat awkward scene.
Not far from where he parked his car, he saw a middle-aged couple dressed plainly.
Their expressions were weary, and their eyes were filled with sorrow.
However, their overall demeanor couldn’t be overshadowed by grief.
Across from them was a slightly younger middle-aged man who was roaring in anger.
“Sister, what were you thinking? How could you invite that so-called Brother Yidao to host Liang’s funeral!”
“Don’t you know that Liang’s death was because of that Brother Yidao? If he hadn’t followed him, would Liang have died?”
“Look at what people are saying online now. That Brother Yidao is the Grim
Reaper, the harbinger of death! Anyone he follows dies!”
“Otherwise, how could Liang have died from food poisoning!”
Li Yidao was speechless.
He heard the negative comments about himself as soon as he got out of the car. Honestly, at that moment, Li Yidao had the urge to turn around and leave.
He could forgo taking on this business order, not earn money, and even give up the system’s reward!
But he couldn’t let them label him as the harbinger of death or indirectly accuse him of “killing” people! He couldn’t bear that “guilt”!
“Smack…”
The middle-aged woman gave the middle-aged man a resounding slap.
Li Yidao, who was about to turn around, was stunned by the slap!
“Shut up! Have you forgotten how I taught you since you were young?” “Baseless accusations! Believing in rumors! Look at what you’re doing now!” “Haven’t you bothered to replace out the actual situation of this funeral director?”
“He gives reminders! Haven’t you noticed? Almost every streamer he follows gets a reminder! And those who don’t get reminders are the wicked ones!”
“Even his reminders are like a lifeline, a last chance!”
“But who cares? Who seizes that chance?”
“The heavenly secrets must be revealed. He risks his own safety to give reminders, and all you see is disgrace?”
“He is a powerful person! A compassionate one!”
“For Liang to have someone like him to see him off, it’s his good fortune!”
The man on the other side didn’t know if he was dazed by his sister’s slap or if he was provoked by her sharp words.
He lowered his head and remained silent, like a child who had done something wrong.
But his eyes still held a hint of stubbornness.
As for Li Yidao, he stood there uncertain of whether to move forward or backward…
Um… this was a bit awkward.
Was he really that awesome?
Honestly, he did have the idea of giving reminders to the people he followed.
Seizing that chance would be good after all…
But the woman’s words made him feel unreal.
Her reasoning, her judgment and her composure made Li Yidao feel inferior!
At that moment, the middle-aged woman seemed to sense something behind her. She turned around and met Li Yidao’s gaze.
Yes, it was sadness.
After all, it was her son who just died.
“Young man, you’re Mr. Li Yidao, right?” The middle-aged woman quickly realized who he was and stepped forward with a smile.
Li Yidao nodded slightly, not surprised that she knew his name. He had been on live streams, and his pictures had been circulated online.
“I’m sorry, you had to witness that. My brother didn’t mean any harm. It’s just that Liang’s death…” Once she confirmed Li Yidao’s identity, the middle-aged woman apologized immediately.
She knew her brother’s words must have been overheard by him. Li Yidao waved his hand, “Auntie, it’s okay. It doesn’t matter.”
“And… to be honest, there are things I’m not sure about myself.” As he spoke, Li Yidao revealed a wry smile.
He believed the woman would understand what he meant.
Indeed, after hearing his words, she also smiled wryly.
Shaking her head gently, she said in a soft voice, “There are some things that someone has to do, some people need an opportunity, and some others deserve punishment.”
“Young man, I don’t understand many profound truths. I only know that you should be yourself, and there’s nothing absolutely right or wrong.”
Listening to the woman’s words, Li Yidao was even taken aback for a moment.
He didn’t know why he said that just now.
But…
This woman was not simple…
“Young man, let’s go inside and see what else is needed for Liang’s funeral.”
“I know that your shop may not provide all the services, so I took the liberty of replaceing another one.”
“But rest assured, you will still receive your commission in full. I just hope you can see Liang off properly, let him rest in peace…”
Li Yidao nodded and didn’t refuse.
He could tell that the woman wasn’t short of money. Though she dressed simply, her demeanor and behavior spoke otherwise.
It didn’t mean that rich folks would all behave that way.
It was because someone with such a demeanor couldn’t be just an ordinary person!
In the following time, all the communication went exceptionally smoothly.
The other team she found was also very professional, and everything was impeccable.
Only a few details and some of the tips Li Yidao inherited needed some adjustments and arrangements.
Originally, the other group looked down on these, considering Li Yidao’s age.
But after witnessing a few of Li Yidao’s abilities, they completely dispelled any contempt.
Little did they know that Li Yidao’s skills didn’t just come from his parents, but from another world.
Especially after experiencing life and death, he inexplicably grasped many things.
And he mastered them perfectly.
Li Yidao took this funeral to heart, staying at the Funeral Parlor all day to avoid any “accidents” that shouldn’t happen.
The next morning, with the rising temperature, the burning flames, and a handful of white ashes, this funeral ended smoothly.
It was plain, yet peaceful.
Perhaps, when a person truly approached death, it was just this tranquil…
Sitting alone in the taxi returning to the funeral shop, holding a heavy envelope in his arms, Li Yidao didn’t know what emotions he was feeling.
Parting between life and death always brought a sense of sadness.
This was also the first time he had conducted a business without Li Yinuo accompanying him, which made him feel a bit sentimental.
Twenty minutes later, the taxi stopped at the entrance of the funeral shop.
Just as Li Yidao got out of the car, a belated system settlement message suddenly resounded in his mind!
“Ding dong! The host has completed a follow-up mission, and the second-stage system advancement task reward is being issued.”
“Ding dong! Detecting the existence of unsettled rewards in the current cumulative pool. Based on the current accumulation of the business accumulation pool, you can claim the rewards.”
“The rewards are as follows….
