Bet, what to bet on
Everyone inside and outside the camera was stunned. If Lin Yi's words just now meant that he was betting that he could become Qin Nuo's spouse, then it was a bit arrogant.
It’s just that there’s some ambiguity in Lin Yi’s words, and no one can quite grasp what he means.
Even the reporter himself, who originally wanted to ask this question in one go, was reminded by the intelligent computer that there was only a little over a minute left in the interview, and he had not yet finished asking several key guiding questions that he had prepared to ask Lin Yi.
The reporter felt a little annoyed and regretful, but he had to take the topic back from Qin Nuo and asked Lin Yi: "So, what is your response to the intentional injury incident that was widely circulated on the Internet before? It was said that you designed to hurt the other party's legal spouse, but caused your own gland to be injured?"
The sharp light on Lin Yi's face dimmed a little. He looked at the aggressive look of the other party. He didn't know if it was the memory of the original owner or something else, but there was a surge of anger in his heart.
These people in the circle, who didn't know the truth of the matter, who didn't know that Lin Yi was just a victim. But they had no psychological burden about being accomplices.
To put it bluntly, no matter where you are, the law of the jungle is the nature of the world, and no one cares about the justice of the weak.
Lin Yi understood all this clearly. He glanced at the 30-second countdown above Xiao A's head, and then asked calmly, "Where is the source of the online rumor? Is there any evidence other than the verbal description? If there is no evidence, is it a rumor? Can rumors convict people? Or are you questioning the police's ability to handle cases in the capital star, and think they will let me get away with it? But I am destined to disappoint you. A small person like me is not qualified to get away with it."
He spoke slowly and clearly, and the arrogance on his face made it almost impossible to look at him for even a moment.
The reporter opened his mouth in astonishment at Lin Yi's aggressive gaze, only to realize that although he seemed to have the initiative throughout the interview, the rhythm was actually on Lin Yi's side. However, there was no room for him to change or save the situation. The whole scene came to an abrupt end and Lin Yi had disappeared in front of the camera.
Various netizens' comments flew in the comment section below the interview.
"Oh my god, I might be sick. Why is Lin Yi's last part so a?"
"It's true! He was an omega before, but now he feels like he has become an alpha. Could it be that without the glands, there is still this effect... I have a bold idea..."
"Damn, he seems to have suddenly become a different person, just like when I got a new AI last week. He was originally well-behaved, but suddenly became very serious. I'm a little uncomfortable with it."
There were also netizens who were possessed by Conan and started to investigate further into Lin Yi’s words.
"Why do I feel like Lin Yi's last words seem to have some special meaning?"
"That's right, it's like it's hinting at something... Could it be that this matter is really not that simple?"
"Right, right, right. Who was that person that he had tried to harm but failed? Lin Yi's next words imply that he was the victim, and that some big shot was being shielded."
"You guys are really amazing. You were so moved by Lin Yi's words? I don't believe that there is no such thing as a rumor. If he didn't do anything, how could so many people say that about him?"
The Star Network was in chaos. Lin Yi watched carefully for a while and found that although the number of netizens who maintained that this matter might be reversed or had doubts was not mainstream, at least this voice had come out, and there was a certain number of them.
Lin Yi pursed his lips, and a faint smile appeared on his cheeks. This was the effect of his efforts. In the past two days of free time, he had not paid attention to Yinyue Entertainment, but he did not expect that the other party would be more pressing than he expected. Presumably, under such a rhythm, even if the original owner could hold on at the beginning, he would eventually be crushed step by step.
He lowered his eyes to look at Little A, which had ended its previous excitement phase and quietly hung a delivery countdown sign on its head. It still looked not very smart.
The shell of Xiao A's machine can be replaced, but the intelligence level cannot be upgraded. Firstly, its model is too old, and secondly, its manufacturer is a small manufacturer on Zhenqi Star that has long gone bankrupt.
Lin Yi didn't mind this. He found being silly much more fun than being strict.
"Are you happy?" Lin Yi asked Xiao A.
Little A affirmed, "Happy!" and rubbed against Lin Yi's legs.
Lin Yi gently touched its head with his slender fingertips.
Inside the palace, the queen just turned off the interview screen and turned to look at Song Shu.
"He seems to be different from what you said."
Song Shu looked unhappy, "No one will believe him."
The queen didn't take Lin Yi seriously. She just said, "You know Qin Nuo is coming back from the deserted planet, right? The royal family won't be at peace by then. You'd better deal with all these trivial matters."
The Queen did not think highly of her cousin and a few words of criticism were the limit.
However, the Queen did not call Song Shu into the palace to talk about Lin Yi. The image of the royal family in the public eye has not been very good in recent years. There have been several minor scandals that have caused a lot of public opinion.
As an omega, Song Shu has not appeared in the media after her marriage. Her image is relatively clean, simple and workable.
This is also what the Queen intends to use, hoping to restore some image for the royal family, or at least regain a piece of ground in the public opinion field.
The queen gently cut off a branch with the scissors in her hand. Her eyes were calm, but her words were cold: "Speaking of which, since everyone is so concerned about Ye Jin's person, you might as well go with the flow and create the image of the victim."
Although Song Shu was dissatisfied with the queen's domineering attitude, the Song family now relied on the queen's protection, especially her family, so whatever the queen said was natural.
"I understand." Song Shu lowered her head to hide the dissatisfaction on her face.
In the afternoon, "The Wasteland" sent Lin Yi the script and confirmed his filming date. As a less important filming staff, Lin Yi was scheduled to leave five days later, which was three days after the first episode of "Where We Come From" was finished.
Although Lin Yi was just a minor supporting role without even a name, he still spent an entire afternoon thinking over the entire script carefully and had a general idea of it in his mind.
Lin Yi put down the script, changed his clothes and went to the gym to run two laps.
There weren't too many people in the gym at this time. Lin Yi passed by outside and saw that there were almost no people on the equipment. Instead, there was a group of people gathered inside.
To be more precise, a group of alphas were surrounding several betas, among whom was the beta Wei Que who had exchanged contact information with Lin Yi in the morning.
Several betas were obviously uncomfortable with the pressure from the alphas. Their faces were pale and they were like weeds swaying in the wind. They were about to fall down.
Lin Yi walked into the gym at an unchanged pace and heard voices coming from inside.
"Beta, just go to the Beta-only gym downstairs. Don't get in the way here, okay?"
"My fist is itching, so I want to move it." One of the alphas waved his fist sinisterly, scaring the betas.
Lin Yi had already reached behind them and interrupted their conversation with a voice that was neither too light nor too heavy: "Excuse me."
Everyone turned around and saw that it was him. All the betas' eyes flashed with light as if they had seen a savior, while the alphas felt a little uncomfortable, but still tried to save face and refused to give in.
"What's up? Do you want me to scratch your fist?" Lin Yi raised the personal terminal in his hand impatiently: "Xiao A, help me call the police in the North Tenth District."
The betas inside didn't want to call the police, but they were completely intimidated by the alpha's momentum, and the soft hand software couldn't do anything. On the other hand, Lin Yi was like a person who had nothing to do, as if the alpha was no different from a cat or a dog in his eyes.
The security in the North District is not bad. If Lin Yi calls the police, these alphas will definitely be in trouble. Immediately, an alpha reached out and tried to forcibly shut down Lin Yi's personal terminal.
Lin Yi flashed by, and the communicator had already connected to the North Tenth District Police Station. The current scene was transmitted immediately. The operator immediately understood what was going on, and warned the alpha at the scene through the communicator: "The identity information of the people at the scene has been matched. If they are not dispersed on the spot, our bureau will dispatch police to deal with this matter."
With a whoosh, the scene was immediately disbanded as if a military training session had been held, and a few alphas who bullied the weak and feared the strong immediately disappeared.
Wei Que watched Lin Yi turn off the communicator, then came up and grabbed Lin Yi's hand as if he had seen his own brother.
Lin Yi pulled back, but it didn't move, so he just let him express his emotions.
The other betas, like Wei Que, stood around Lin Yi, their eyes sparkling as if they had seen the morning star.
"Brother, you are really my idol." Wei Que said. As a beta, Lin Yi is awesome in his eyes.
Just as Lin Yi was about to speak, a large display screen in the gym suddenly lit up and started playing the news automatically. Intelligent computers in public places usually only play news when there is a big and influential news, so the attention of everyone present was attracted.
Lin Yi was looking at it casually at first, but when he saw clearly who was on the screen, his gaze froze.
He recognized Ye Jin's face in the camera, but he did not recognize the young woman sitting next to Ye Jin. However, he had heard the woman's voice.
He had heard this sound before the original owner was forcibly dragged away and his gland was damaged.
On the screen, Ye Jin and Song Shu sat together, holding hands tightly, looking like a loving couple. Song Shu spoke softly, showing her noble manners to the fullest. As an omega woman, she looked more fragile than a male omega, and at this moment, she was a little tearful, which looked very contagious.
"I am indeed the victim who was almost hurt by Lin Yi," she lowered her head slightly towards the camera. Ye Jin next to her knew how to seize the opportunity and put his arm around her shoulders. "But I think this may have just been a momentary impulse, so I don't want to pursue it any further, and I hope everyone can forgive him."
Lin Yi felt that if Song Shu wasn't talking nonsense at the moment, he might have been more sympathetic towards such a woman.
His eyes turned a little cold. It would have been fine if Song Shu hadn't shown up. Maybe people would gradually start to forget about this matter. But now, her so-called tolerance was nothing more than a knife that would chop Lin Yi again.
"It's just as I thought. This Song Shu is not simple." Wei Que suddenly spoke.
What he meant was not that he believed Song Shu.
Lin Yi was a little curious: "Why, do you believe that Lin Yi is innocent?"
Wei Que nodded and shook his head: "I think there are a lot of suspicious points in this matter. It's not that simple. You know, I saw a few accounts posting some content related to Song Shu this morning, all saying that she is beautiful and kind. It feels a bit deliberate. Now that I see it this way, it's obviously a deliberate operation."
When he said this, he was no longer timid as before, but instead looked very excited.
"Do you know a lot about this?" Lin Yi asked.
"Of course, I make a living from this." Wei Que patted his chest, "I have more than 10 million followers on my account."
Lin Yi felt like he was dozing off and someone sent him a pillow.
