"... I'm the plagiarist! I'm reborn from the future—"
The moment these words were blurted out, Zhang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, as if the boulder that had been pressing on his heart for a long time had been removed by a small gap, followed by a burst of relaxation from the heart.
And his words did seem to have an effect.
The next moment, the whispering ghost sound disappeared, and the group of ghosts that rushed forward like hungry tigers stopped moving, and the entire dark space seemed to freeze at this moment.
The evil spirits? Their blood-red eyes all stared at him. But Zhang Chen completely relaxed.
"Huh..." He let out a long breath.
... It's good that these evil spirits have stopped, it seems that I have finally believed his words. Since this is the case, they?shouldn't?continue to trouble him again, right
In a flash of thought, Zhang Chen looked around calmly, but unfortunately, what he saw was one after another extremely terrifying faces and cold and gloomy eyes, and he couldn't judge them from them. Any? Emotions.
He turned his eyes cautiously, and tentatively said: "I've already told my biggest secret, now you guys? You should know that you've found the wrong person, right?"
Ghosts? Staring at him silently.
"Here, the debtor has the owner..." So, stop pestering him and go find "Yunshang"!
Anyone with an IQ can see his hints that are not secretive at all, as well as the meaning expressed in his words.
In the hidden live broadcast room, the barrage was silent at first, and then exploded!
[I knock! What a shameless person! Not to mention plagiarism, knowing that these evil spirits are so fierce, but still causing trouble, is it because they are afraid that Yuanxia will not die? Can I call the police? Is this intentional homicide or abetted homicide? ]
—This is a loyal reader who has always supported Yuan Xia.
[Thief! fraud! ! murderer! ! ! I used to like this guy! Damn, pay me back the reward money for subscribing! This is not what he deserves at all! Die, die, die! ! I'm about to vomit, why doesn't the evil spirit simply kill him? ! ! ]
——This is Zhang Chen's true fan who turned black because of love and hatred.
[This... has too many elements. I didn't know for a moment whether I should be shocked by the fact that there are reborn people in the world?, or should I be shocked that the evil spirits are advancing with the times and know how to defend their rights these days, or should I be shocked by this wave of plagiarists from the Son of Heaven? Citation, murderous show operation... It seems that everyone will be admitted to the shock department today. ]
[It is reasonable to suspect that he just wanted to take the opportunity to kill people, and the plagiarist is guilty. Only when the original author, Yuanxia, is completely dead, can he feel at ease? ]
— These are the people who eat melons who are scared of melons.
[Ah ah ah! As long as I think that I supported this guy before, and aimed at Yunshang in order to get justice for him, I want to fuck him now! ]
— This is the righteous passer-by in the past plagiarism incident.
…
More and more bullet screens frantically brushed across the screen, like a violent storm.
But Zhang Chen, who was at the center of this storm, didn't notice it, and was still trying to impress a group of ruthless evil spirits with his sincere eyes, and for this he did not hesitate to belittle himself severely with the most decisive attitude.
"...I didn't say a single lie, you guys? I really found the wrong person! In fact, I don't have the ability to write such a popular novel. Really, I'm a piece of trash! Including the previous two books, Both copied from two other authors too - I swear it's true!!"
It is difficult for him to describe his mood at the moment, fear, apprehension, anticipation, or gloating
"So, the one who really makes you? Not even after death? It's Yunshang? That's right! If you want to find him, you should go to him!!"
"Snapped!"
A soft sound suddenly sounded, like a clap of palms together, or a snap of fingers.
The dense darkness around him faded away like faded ink, and a figure was quickly outlined in the vast expanse of blank space.
Slender and thin but? Doesn't look too thin? With a neat and delicate face, the young man who suddenly appeared has a very good-looking but also very cold face. Under the slightly messy hair, a pair of eyes are full of pure black. .
At some point, the group of ghosts retreated behind him and surrounded him.
Amidst Zhang Chen's panicked expression, the mysterious young man who appeared suddenly blinked slightly, and unhurriedly took out an investigator's ID from his pocket.
"You are under arrest, Mister Reborn."
He looked calm, and looked over with cold and emotionless eyes. The cold and ferocious eyes of all the evil spirits around turned to Zhang Chen.
"... I didn't expect such a small temptation to surprise me like this."
——The meaning in his words is easy to think, maybe there is something abnormal about Zhang Chen that aroused the suspicion of the Special Affairs Bureau, so he specially sent investigators to test it out, but unexpectedly, he got scammed The secret of his rebirth.
Zhang Chen obviously thought so.
After a moment of panic, the stunned expression on his face was replaced by guilty conscience and anger, and he said very quickly: "I don't know what you are talking about. Rebirth is such a ridiculous thing? How can it happen? Can it exist? This is just what I just said to save my life!"
[quibble! It's just sophistry! Even if ordinary people lie, they won't take such unreliable things as rebirth? Let's lie! Just say something? Nothing is more believable than this! Don't be fooled by him, Mr. Investigator! ! ]
[Wow, this little brother investigator! I can! ]
[I have learned a lot, and I really changed my face at the textbook level. One second he was still trembling, urging the evil spirits to trouble Yunshang, and the next second his face was full of innocence. ]
[I think the Son of Heaven has a huge cognitive error about himself. Where is he? What waste? With such excellent face-changing skills and natural acting skills, if he was in the entertainment industry, he would have already won the grand slam of the best actor. ]
Netizens in the live broadcast room? They have recognized this guy's true colors for a long time, and started to mock him in a fancy way. Many people are worried that this handsome investigator brother will be cheated.
However, their worries are obviously unnecessary.
After Zhang Chen finished speaking, he didn't think it was a good idea to stand in the same place, his expression not showing the slightest change: "These words don't have to be the same? Let me tell you. Let's go to the Special Affairs Bureau and talk about it."
He turned away.
All the ghosts and evil spirits all around laughed grinningly? The illusory ghosts stepped forward, turned into invisible nooses, tied Zhang Chen's arms, and were about to drag him away.
"No! No? Yes! I won't go!" Zhang Chen was dragged all the way, struggling desperately, his angry tone was somewhat sharp, "Why? Why? Why are you arresting people?!"
After realizing that everything was caused by the investigators, Zhang Chen's fear quickly dissipated.
In this world, there is always a kind of people who bully the weak and fear the hard, who are cowardly in front of the wicked, and who kidnap the good people morally.
Zhang Chen is such a person.
Facing the unreasonable and unable to communicate with the evil spirits, he knelt faster than anyone else; when he realized that behind the evil spirits there was an instigator who could communicate and belonged to the lawful camp, his attitude immediately changed? Boss around.
"...This is my home, why did you come in? Why? Why did you use evil spirits to scare me! There is no evidence, driving evil spirits to deal with ordinary citizens? What is the difference between this and torture? Investigator Can you do that?!"
"—Again? Don't let me go, I'll sue you for murder! I'll sue you for driving ghosts and killing people!!"
Why didn't he stop suddenly.
Zhang Chen, who was struggling desperately to resist the drag, suddenly fell to the ground.
He didn't care about the pain, and thought he had pinched the opponent's weakness, so he raised his head, wanting to further resolve the whole matter: "Actually..."
"Actually, all of this is just a little prank." A clear low laugh sounded from above.
Zhang Chen opened his eyes wide in astonishment, watching the young man turn around and look down at him condescendingly, the corners of his indifferent lips were slowly raised, revealing a pleasant, almost joking arc.
"How can investigators hurt ordinary people? Fact? You didn't even hurt a hair, did you?"
… Those strange ways of dying are just like a hallucination. Except for the unimaginable pain that is still engraved in Zhang Chen's memory, even the audience in front of the live broadcast room have never seen the whole process. They saw a group of evil spirits chasing Zhang Chen in the room, and then Zhang Chen was scared out of his wits and told the whole truth.
"What's more, where are there any evil spirits?" Yuan Buwei continued, "It is stated in the information released by the Special Affairs Bureau that living people cannot control evil spirits."
He slowly stretched his fingers around, and the smile on the corner of his lips became wider and wider: "You misunderstood, these are just anonymous well-meaning people, I heard that there are suspicious people here, out of Justice, then? Volunteering to play the role of the evil spirit and helping to test it out."
"You? Say, don't you?"
Didn't he have that happy and bright smile? His gaze swept across the ghosts one by one with gentleness and kindness.
For a while, the group of ghosts responded.
The eerie ghost voice disappeared at some point, and these evil ghosts who could only "hee hee hee" and could not speak well, spoke in an extremely polite and unanimous manner:
"Yes, yes, we? We are all actors who volunteered."
The evil spirits stretched out their hands, and combed the messy and blood-stained hair like seaweed? Neatly, revealing the whole face naturally, wiped off the blood on the face, and reinstalled the eyeballs that fell out. Looking back into the eye sockets, a female ghost took out the cosmetics from nowhere, and puffed the powder on the pale face with a quick and elegant speed, and the ghost stretched out her hands, straightened the crooked neck with a click, and put it on The almost severed head rested firmly on the shoulder again...
The movements of these evil spirits are so fast that almost all of them have afterimages, but in less than half a minute, the group of evil spirits who were grotesque and horrible before turned into neatly dressed gentlemen and ladies with well-haired hair. The radians of the sides are so polite and consistent.
"???"
Zhang Chen was dumbfounded, but was speechless.
Why didn't you laugh as if you didn't notice the collapse of Zhang Chen's mentality at all? Hehe continued: "Everyone did a good job, you actually scared you."
Zhang Chen: "...?"
... more than just good! It is clearly the true character to play!
Knowing that he was not opening his eyes and talking nonsense, but he didn't know what to do at the moment? Refute.
He was silent for too long, so that the eyes of all the evil spirits gradually became more hostile.
They turned their heads unanimously and looked at Zhang Chen in unison.
"What? My brother thinks? We? Don't act like that?"
A gust of cold wind blew through the room, and the evil spirit rushed towards the face. It seemed that the nightmarish memories not long ago appeared in my mind again, which made people shudder from the bottom of their hearts.
Amid the grinning laughter of all the evil ghosts, Zhang Chen shuddered, and nodded stiffly. The smile was uglier than crying: "Hehe, it looks like it, so much like it."
[Hahahahaha, the little brother of the investigator has a little bit of skin, and the evil spirits? They are also a little skinny~]
[I have noticed, just now? The little brother investigator looked over, and the group of evil spirits immediately froze. what to do? Not scary at all! ]
[What? What ghost? Where did the evil spirit come from! You guys? Don't talk nonsense, this is clearly a group of professional actors! 666, the acting skills are really good, and they are so vivid, it is recommended to form a ghost troupe to make a live debut! ]
[That's right, there are no evil spirits at all, where do evil spirits come from to scare ordinary people. This is obviously a group of friends who uphold justice. With their superb acting skills, they helped find the plagiarism dog! whee:)]
[That’s right, plagiarizing dog food poop? Justice comes from heaven! Ghost warning! ! ]
Looking at the stunned and aggrieved Zhang Chen, and the netizens who were still full of anger before? It's like drinking a glass of Bing Kuo Luo in summer, and it's indescribably refreshing!
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Yuan didn't give an order, then? A ghost opened the door. Several figures walked in.
—As early as the first time, the Special Affairs Bureau saw what happened in Zhang Chen's home through the live broadcast room, and learned of the important information of "the reborn person", even Director Chu couldn't sit still, and immediately released It was not the original reason for the information contact, and several investigators with the strongest capabilities so far were sent to bring the reborn person back to the Special Affairs Bureau safely. Now, these people have arrived.
At the same time as footsteps sounded, Yuan Buwei glanced at the direction of the camera in the live broadcast room, and the system 999 immediately understood and cut off the signal.
The live broadcast room suddenly went dark.
Netizens who were still playing memes on the barrage? The black question marks suddenly appeared.
[? ? ? what happened? ]
[Am I short of this traffic? Don't stop, keep going, I still want to see what happens to the plagiarism dog! ]
[Emmm is a rare rebirth after all, maybe he was taken away for slices? ]
After chatting a few words on this topic, there was a sudden silence on the black screen, and the atmosphere became heavy.
I don't know who spoke first: [We? We all owe Yunshang/Yuanxia an apology. ]
[Yeah, we? We all owe him an apology.] ]
[However, the previous evidence of plagiarism is too solid, and I didn't expect that there would be reborn people in the world. I thought I was upholding justice... Unexpectedly, I became an accomplice of the wicked—could it be possible to encounter such a situation in the future? It is clearly evidence of plagiarism. Shouldn't we all speak up? Wouldn't that condone the arrogance of plagiarism dogs? ? ? ]
There are different opinions, and many people have fallen into confusion.
But no matter what?, everyone agrees that Yunshang/Yuanxia are completely innocent.
Except for those guys who have a dark mind to add insult to injury, or just like to spray people on the Internet to find a sense of presence, they are still stubborn. After knowing the truth, most netizens choose to apologize under the account they didn't do it for.
As the bullet screen said, an apology is an apology. Many netizens who thought they were speaking out for justice fell into confusion after knowing the truth. In this confusion, there may be grievances that cannot be explained clearly.
Unspeakable complex emotions are accumulating and brewing in their hearts, just like a volcano that is about to erupt, perhaps with a slight trigger it will burst out.
They can't vent these emotions on the most innocent "Yuanxia" in the whole incident, so they can only pour them all on Zhang Chen, the culprit. However, Zhang Chen has been taken away by the special affairs bureau, and they can only... Can spit on him crazily on the Internet.
The anger of the crowd is terrible. A master hacker who is proficient in computer technology picked up the most detailed information on Zhang Chen, even the Chinese composition that he never failed in his student days was picked up.
And "Yaochi", the editor of Zero Point Bookstore, who kept in frequent contact with Zhang Chen and had an extremely close relationship, was also brought to everyone's eyes along with Zhang Chen's information.
What did she do? It was also found out.
[Look what I found? What? Are Yunshang and Yuanxia contracted by the same person? Do you still remember the photos? At the beginning, I thought that this photo could only be sent by someone inside Lingdian Bookstore. Now, the truth is out, shall we? Come to Kangkang who is this—]
As a post full of extremely detailed evidence was posted on the Internet by private experts, public opinion once again exploded.
Without him, "Yao Chi" is the editor who has followed Zhang Chen since his first book became popular, and the post also posted intimate photos and chat records of the two. And the photos that exposed the identity of "Yuanxia" were actually made by "Yaochi". Does anyone believe that Zhang Chen would not know about it
What's more? What's more, this post even picked up several vests and comments that Zhang Chen carefully sorted out on the Internet.
Plagiarism, in turn pouring dirty water on the original author, colluding with the editor to expose the original author's privacy, guiding netizens to expose the original author on the Internet, and attempting to kill people with a knife when evil spirits came to the door... These kinds of behaviors are simply despicable to the extreme!
—The Internet is completely blown up.
If Zhang Chen was not taken away by the Special Affairs Bureau, but stayed at home, I believe that some netizens who hate him have already made extreme moves that violate the laws of Tianxia Kingdom.
"...In this way, I have done a good deed?" Looking at the storm on the Internet, Yuan Buwei rubbed his chin in deep thought, "At least, I have successfully prevented many people from going on the path of breaking the law or committing crimes. Well."
System 999: [... The host is right.]
It has not forgotten until now, how about the mysterious and unpredictable Wenhao system? It was snatched from Zhang Chen by its own host.
As for? Afterwards, what happened to the host's Wenhao system, whether it was roasted, boiled or stewed...
It didn't dare to say anything, and it didn't dare to ask anything.
Although the two may not be of the same kind in essence, they are both called systems after all. Thinking about the possible fate of the Wenhao system, System 999 can't help but tremble.
As for Zhang Chen, the former host of the Wenhao system, he has become a precious researcher of the Special Affairs Bureau.
At present, the Special Affairs Bureau's attitude towards him is still in the stage of gentle inquiry. He even told the secret of the reborn person, but he never revealed any news about the Wenhao system. Perhaps he still expects the Wenhao system to contact him when he wants to help him turn the corner
... It's a pity that he doesn't know yet that his golden finger is already lying on the dining table of his host, Orz.
Thinking of Zhang Chen who didn't know anything, the fear of system 999 gradually dissipated.
... It seems that it has been infected with human problems unknowingly. When I see someone worse than myself, my heart is unexpectedly balanced :)
