However, just a few days ago, along with the release of an updated version, he put out a banner announcement that "Revenge Shadow Rider" will return, causing a great stir. The fat man especially remembers that day on his way home; there were very few vehicles that could squeeze in because on the very day the announcement was made, to be exact, when he was heading out, he found the area around "Galactic Warfare" swarming with countless people.

This kind of scene can only be seen in densely populated areas during spring outings, rarely seen otherwise. But during the times when Revenge Shadow Rider was active, such events were common. Whenever people saw the blood-boiling scenes of Revenge Shadow Rider fighting through the light screen projection, the square would always gather a lot of people.

There were men, women, old and young alike, whether you knew them or not, if asked what they were doing, they would invariably answer they were there to witness Revenge Shadow Rider. Some people even came to the front lines of the battlefield just to catch a glimpse of Revenge Shadow Rider.

For instance, Big Macs and Mardis, during the Galactic Warfare era, Big Macs' public order was practically nonexistent. Yet, in this situation, many netizens came driven by curiosity, just to see Revenge Shadow Rider, when the android Yita challenged Revenge Shadow Rider, Zhang Xiaobo wasn't present, but he saw the scene back then, that area was packed with people.

And now that Revenge Shadow Rider is gone, Hans certainly wouldn't hold any Shadow Rider events. The fat man knew well that this was a special commemoration by Hans for Revenge Shadow Rider.

But recently, when he got news that Revenge Shadow Rider was about to return, Zhang Xiaobo was shocked! This is simply impossible, and Hans is even less likely to lie about this matter. So, this was the first reason for his shock.

The second reason is that the return of Revenge Shadow Rider means the return of Feng Yi. It could also be Xiu Yi, that child. However, the distinction lies in the fact that he has already contacted Xiu Yi via "Heavenly Communication" and personally received a definite answer from Xiu Yi's mouth. Xiu Yi didn't say he had any contact with Hans. He didn't even know Hans. Although Xiu Yi also played Galactic Warfare, that was history on the Bull Planet. As a free bounty hunter in the Advanced Bounty Tribe, the current Xiu Yi has become a renowned explorer, naturally with no reason to play any online games.

Furthermore, those familiar with Revenge Shadow Rider know that the current Revenge Shadow Rider is not the same as the original. Because during that Mecha Battle Championship fight, though people didn't know exactly what Kexiao said to Xiu Yi, the battle didn't continue. It's important to know that competing with Revenge Shadow Rider has always been a goal for Kexiao. Yet when the goal was right in front of him, when they stood on the same stage, he chose to give up, which clearly indicates the issue. This is something known worldwide.

So, the fat man certainly knows that the current Revenge Shadow Rider is not the original Revenge Shadow Rider. Moreover, it's not like he doesn't recognize Feng Yi and Xiu Yi. He's someone who knows the inside story. One could say that the fat man even has some connections with Hans, but he hasn't heard from Xiu Yi about any interaction with Hans, not even about communication.

Thus, the fat man deduced another conclusion: the announcement made by Hans, that is to say, the one announced on the official website regarding the return of Shadow Rider, does not refer to Xiu Yi, but to Feng Yi.

Perhaps his subconscious has indeed come to believe this matter is true; otherwise, how could he dream of that dead ghost Feng Yi every day?

Of course, the fat man also considered asking Hans about this matter face-to-face, but he knows better; Hans is unlikely to answer, not to him, not even to his own mother if she asked. Hans is this kind of person; his obsession with Revenge Shadow Rider is unparalleled by anyone in the world.

So, the fat man didn't approach Hans. He knows well that looking for Hans would be in vain. Instead, the anticipation of welcoming Shadow Rider makes him anxious. It's an inexplicable hope. As the public test date approaches, the fat man's heart becomes more excited. He wants to see which Revenge Shadow Rider Hans's so-called return refers to, which is the second reason for his excitement.

Of course, even if Revenge Shadow Rider didn't return at that time, the Galactic Warfare company wouldn't face any legal penalties, not because Revenge Shadow Rider has become obsolete. It certainly hasn't, because the final say on the information is in Hans's hands, in the hands of Galactic Warfare. And the information he releases is only published on the Galactic Warfare official website. In other words, even if Revenge Shadow Rider didn't appear, he could simply create an event under the name of Shadow Rider to gloss over the situation. Although everyone knows Hans wouldn't do this, the official news is indeed different from the battles.

Battle news involves making announcements to society and even the world. However, Shadow Rider's return could also be just an event, causing differing opinions on this matter. There are quite a few people talking about it. Some say Hans has gone completely mad, some say he's got a delusion, but no one says Hans is using the Revenge Shadow Rider topic to bluff. This is where the internet users' commendable fairness lies, for everyone can see Hans's obsession with Revenge Shadow Rider.

As for the third reason, it's of course because he dreams about Feng Yi every day. In fact, dreaming about someone isn't strange; having a thought leads to dreams. The fat man considers himself a boy with dreams, even if he's middle-aged, his heart remains that of a youth.

But, when a person continuously has the same dream, he begins to wonder if this is a sign that Feng Yi is about to return. At first, he merely thought of himself as schizophrenic, which is still what he thinks nowadays. Otherwise, the fat man wouldn't be constantly grumbling about this dream.

However, the crux lies in yesterday's dream. The fat man is not concerned about how he cooperated with Feng Yi in the dream to trick and mess around, but rather Feng Yi's last words. He said he was about to return.

These words made the fat man particularly attentive. He especially remembers realizing at that time that he was dreaming and was about to wake up. Hence, in this period, it's impossible for him to believe in the dream world's setting.

When a person realizes they're dreaming, it's effortless to wake up, for by then, your subjective consciousness is controlling the brain, making you aware that everything is void, false, unreal. Yet, while the fat man realized everything was false, the surroundings vanished, leaving only Feng Yi in the dream, smiling and saying to him that he's coming back and to live well, to definitely not answer the phone, or he might end up on the battlefield.

That is the third reason that shocked the fat man, but after the shock, he has calmed down, thinking it's quite possible he's afflicted with schizophrenia. The fat man decided to visit the hospital at dawn, yes, to consult a neurologist.

Who would've thought, on the way there, his phone mysteriously rang. The fat man took out his phone, seeing the caller ID with a brain freeze, "Hmm? A number starting with zero zero."

He muttered, as far as he recalled, numbers starting with zero zero were supposed to be military lines. The brothers have been retired for years, how could he be receiving a military line call?

Amid various doubts, the fat man decided to answer and inquire further.

"Hey, hello."

The communicator transmitted the fat man's routine greeting, responded by a sweet and crisp salutation, "Good morning, Mr. Zhang Xiaobo."

"Miss, have we met?" He really couldn't remember ever encountering the intelligence officer on the screen. Just as he said that, a buzz went through the fat man's head, nearly exploding!

Military line? Feng Yi's last words in the dream mentioned not answering the phone. Suddenly, the fat man was shocked for a fourth time. Could all of this also be a coincidence?
