Chapter 509 Cruel Video

After Lu Tingchuan's death, a video was uploaded to the Internet, sparking heated discussions across the network.

Because the woman in the video looks so much like Shen Zhichu.

The woman in the video had tattered clothes, was covered in blood and sweat, and had messy hair stuck to her pale face. She lowered her head, and a silver chain passed through her collarbone to pull her up. The video was silent, but seeing the woman trembling and opening her mouth, you could tell how heartbreaking the pain was.

This video, which lasts a full ten minutes, was rarely seen in its entirety because it was so brutal. It was censored within two hours of being uploaded.

But this short period of time was enough to make it a hot topic, and many people who saw it first saved it and secretly shared it.

"I watched the original video. It was so bloody and cruel. I've never seen such horrific torture methods. According to professional analysis, these methods are absolutely real. When I saw the woman in the video having her collarbone pierced by a silver hook, I subconsciously touched my own collarbone and shoulder. It really hurt..."

"Am I the only one who thinks this looks like Shen Zhichu?"

"Maybe they're into SM, looking for excitement."

"The video is muted, but I seem to hear her heart-wrenching cry for help. Please save her."

"The more I look at her, the more she looks like Shen Zhichu. Could it really be her? Considering her recent sudden retirement from the entertainment industry, even though she won the Best Actress award, she announced she would step down from the acting career. It seems strange no matter how I think about it."

Many netizens questioned whether the woman in the video was Shen Zhichu.

That was indeed Shen Zhichu, but she was several years older, or to be more precise, her previous life.

Shen Zhichu's hand holding the phone trembled a little, and after a brief moment of distraction, he quickly regained his composure.

Even after so many years, she thought she had forgotten it, but when she saw this video, her body still couldn't help but tremble.

The video is only ten minutes long. She was tortured for more than an hour. Having a silver hook pierce her collarbone was nothing.

Have you ever seen someone burn blisters on their body with dry ice, and then use cigarettes to light the blisters one by one to press them down?

Have you ever seen real lingchi? Have you ever seen someone draw on your back with sulfuric acid? Having 28 steel needles stuck into your fingers, being injected with all sorts of drugs, having your humanity eroded, being trapped like a beast in a sea of fire and swords—that's what it means to be in a state worse than death.

These short ten minutes are just the tip of the iceberg.

Shen Zhichu really didn't expect that Lu Tingchuan still kept these videos, and that these videos would be leaked after his death.

Shen Zhichu put down her phone and used it to contact the public relations department, asking them to remove the video from the internet. However, when she called, the video had already been removed before she did, and a number of influential marketing accounts had also been blocked.

The official account of Bai's Enterprise issued a clarification statement and a lawyer's letter, demanding that those who slandered Shen Zhichu apologize immediately, otherwise they will receive a court summons. The Internet is not a lawless place, and people should pay the price for their mistakes.

Shen Zhichu's fans on Weibo have long exceeded 60 million, and these fans did not leave her after she announced her retirement from the entertainment industry.

When she learned that she was being hacked again, she immediately came out to fight back against Kong Ping, comparing the woman in the video with Shen Zhichu's face.

They are very similar, but the differences are also obvious.

Who was that woman in the video? What happened to her later...

Later...she died.

It has been so long since he died that we can no longer find out. In addition, someone controls the Internet, so no one knows the original truth.

However, the person who tortured the woman was made public. He was Lu Tingchuan, who was executed by firing squad not long ago.

Everyone was cursing and shouting, saying that Lu Tingchuan deserved to die.

This matter was not a big deal, but it did have some impact on Shen Zhichu.

Shen Zhichu's true identity is in doubt, and Shen Zhichu's current resume can be said to be mediocre.

Everyone suddenly realized that Shen Zhichu's original negative information was fake. So what was she really like? Looking at her resume now, wasn't it just as simple and deceptive as Bai Qiujing's?

Could it be that... Shen Zhichu also has an extraordinary identity?

I have to thank Lu Tingchuan for this. He hired someone to collect all the information about Shen Qing. Except for her age, none of it was true. No one could find out anything even if they checked.

…

Although Bai Qiujing has been discharged from the hospital, his body has not fully recovered to its previous state. If he wants to regain his original appearance when filming "Interstellar", he still needs to gain fat and build up muscles.

So, he just cooked at home and acted as a househusband. He would also go to Shen Zhichu's company to deliver meals and help Shen Zhichu with some chores.

The moment he saw the news online, he immediately set off and headed for [A. W Group]. On the way, he saw a dessert shop that Shen Zhichu liked, and thought to himself: Zhichu is in a bad mood, she likes to eat sweet things, maybe she will be happy after eating them.

He went in and saw a particularly nice cake, so he bought it directly for 99,000 yuan.

Bai Qiujing was worried about disturbing Shen Zhichu's work, so he called Secretary Lin to inquire about the situation.

When he learned that Shen Zhichu was in a meeting, he sat down in the reception room to rest, put the cake aside, and took out his mobile phone to browse the Internet.

The issue of the video has been resolved, and even searching for keywords won't work. He closed his eyes and recalled the video he couldn't finish watching. Shen Zhichu's painful face in the video was like a thorn growing in his heart. The slightest movement seemed as if it would pierce through his ribs, and he wished he could reach out and pull it out.

He had witnessed with his own eyes the nails of Shen Zhichu's fingers being pierced by steel needles and falling off, and he couldn't help but clench his fists just thinking about it.

Reality is often more cruel, and this world has been too unfair to Shen Zhichu.

Bai Qiujing regained his memory. Sometimes when he thought back to the past, especially when he was still the fool Bai Qiu, he always felt that it was just a dream.

He also hoped it was a dream, so that Shen Zhichu would not have been bullied so much.

If he hadn't disappeared during those years, if he had found Shen Zhichu earlier, would everything have been different?

One link after another, one thing after another, if one of the processes is a little better, the butterfly effect it triggers will also be different.

Bai Qiujing still has a secret in his heart. He was able to recover his memory because he met Shen Zhichu's brother Shen Xiuli on the plane and saw his prosthetic right hand.

It was he who chopped off Shen Xiuli's hand because he was the one who took Shen Zhichu to the casino and sold her to another man, causing her to be beaten and almost defiled.

Dirty hands, hands that loved gambling, hands that framed his own sister, it was better not to have them, so he took a pair of pruning shears and chopped off Shen Xiuli's right hand.

Bai Qiu's brain was damaged and his IQ is not high. His intelligence is probably only that of a six or seven-year-old. Like a little beast, he protects Shen Zhichu in his own way. He hates everyone who hurts Shen Zhichu.

Acting rashly without considering the consequences, was this illegal? Would Shen Zhichu dislike him?

Now Bai Qiu has become Bai Qiujing. He is no longer stupid and has become smarter, but he is more cautious than before, fearing that if he makes a mistake, Shen Zhichu will no longer want him.

If Shen Zhichu knew that it was he who chopped off her brother's hand, would she be afraid of him? Would she turn away from him?
