I'm Just a Minor Celebrity, It's Reasonable for Me to Know Some Metaphysics

Master Celestial Jiang Si transmigrated into a book and became an 18th-tier, internet-hated celebrity. In the book, Jiang Si had offended the original heroine, Xiang Zhiyi, leading to widespread ru...

Chapter 39 Still so naive even when facing death

They've been rescued!

[Come on, everyone who was just saying Jiang Si was rude, step forward!]

Who said middle school students are ill-mannered? I wonder what earth-shattering thing her highly educated boyfriend did?

Who understands? Jiang Si is really good; she actually remembered to cover the victim's face.

Those who were led astray: "..."

My face hurts so much.

Then quickly slide to your knees.

I'm sorry, I kneel down. I was ignorant and blind, unable to distinguish right from wrong. I deserve to die.

[A wise person doesn't hold grudges against a petty person. Just consider my offensive words as a fart and let it go.]

[Oh dear, why are there only a few people apologizing? There were so many apologizing just now! Are these people dead or have broken arms?]

【No, didn't you hear what he just said? He was talking about you bunch of scumbags, how many people have he kidnapped or killed?!】

[Yes, yes, I was thinking the same thing. It seems like this isn't her first offense. If Jiang Si had arrived any later, would this young lady have disappeared without a trace, like the previous ones?]

...

Jiang Si gently patted Kong Cuicui a few times and smiled tenderly, "It's alright, your parents will be here to pick you up soon."

Everyone was used to Jiang Si's unyielding or expressionless demeanor, and had never seen her smile so gently before.

It was like a god descending.

Wait, Mom, did I just see God?

Why do I involuntarily feel like kneeling down?

Jiang Si's smile is so captivating, it's like Guanyin has descended to earth!

[God loves the world, and Guanyin saves people from all kinds of suffering. What else could this be but God? Don't you have any idea how many people Jiang Si has saved?]

[Just counting, saving those few children is already amazing! Can you please put aside your fandom's filthy mentality? It's okay to be a fan, but use your brain when you're doing it.]

[What did your sister do? What did Jiang Si do? You're just spreading baseless rumors. It's disgusting.]

Could you please investigate the background of the previous statements?

[Is there even a need to investigate? It's definitely her rival. Whoever dislikes Jiang Si is the prime suspect.]

Jiang Si is so gentle! She even remembered to cover the other girl's face. I burst into tears, really.

[Jiang Si, what kind of person do you like? Don't be so rigid about gender; I can do the laundry and cook.]

[Get out of my way, I have a Master Chef's Certificate! Watch me!]

【No, didn't you guys know? She can't see her comments during the live stream. I've already sent her a private message.】

Before the netizens could continue arguing, the screen suddenly went black.

The incident was broadcast live online, and given how egregious it was, the police arrived immediately upon receiving the news.

The sound of sirens grew louder as they approached, soon reaching the small village.

This small town has always been peaceful and stable, and they had never seen such a scene before. They all gathered around and watched curiously.

"Isn't that Liu Daneng's house? What did he do wrong?"

"I heard they found a girl in his house."

"Isn't that incredibly audacious?"

“I suspected him before. He’s in his forties or fifties and hasn’t even found a wife. There must be something wrong with him!”

As the villagers spoke, they were blocked by the police who had rushed over.

They handed the person over to Jiang Si and turned off the camera.

Police investigations should not be broadcast live.

A policeman, who looked to be in his forties, led the way in, followed by a number of his underlings.

As if he had found a lifeline, Liu Daneng knelt down on the ground with a thud: "Officer, please save me!"

Police officers are the nemesis of evil, possessing a righteous spirit that makes it difficult for evil spirits to get close to them.

Sure enough, the wronged souls stared at him helplessly and resentfully.

Liu Daneng breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but reveal a smug smile, letting the police handcuff him.

The police will protect him; these people suffered at his hands in life, and they will be no match for him in death.

Jiang Si looked at him as if he were a dead man.

Even when death is imminent, people are still so naive.

Liu Daneng argued, "Officer, this woman didn't pay for the ride in my car. I was just momentarily out of my mind when I kidnapped her. I really didn't mean to do anything!"

"If you don't believe me, you can check it out. I'm innocent!"

But his excuses were ultimately a joke. The police aren't stupid; wouldn't they investigate?

Jiang Si didn't want Liu Daneng to have a single day of peace, so she stepped forward and said, "His mental defenses seemed to have collapsed just now. He said he killed more than a dozen people and buried them on that mountain over there."

Jiang Si pointed in a direction.

Liu Daneng's face turned pale at a visible speed, unable to believe that Jiang Si knew the location of his burial site.

Impossible. That place is sparsely populated; even villagers going up the mountain to chop wood or hunt wouldn't pass through there. He must have calculated that if he buried him there, in a dozen or so years, he would be nothing but bones, and no one would ever find him.

His eyes turned bloodshot as he stared intently at Jiang Si.

When the police saw him like this, their hearts sank.

What was initially thought to be a routine case of trafficking in women and children turned out to be a major murder case, prompting an immediate investigation.

Jiang Si was asked to return to assist in the investigation.

Having taken so many statements, Jiang Si had gotten used to it.

"I found out by chance. My younger brother usually likes to go out for walks. He told me that he saw Liu Daneng coming back from outside suspiciously last night. He thought it was very suspicious. He told me about it. We weren't really sure, so we tried to sneak into his house to check. I didn't expect to actually run into him. You can see what happened next in the live stream."
