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 73 The Truth Behind the Murder

When Qi Yan came to human society, his favorite thing to do was tinker with electronic products.

He knows everything about electronic products, and he also knows everything about online gossip.

After they returned, taking advantage of the dark night and the absence of others, they copied the video they had taken onto their computer.

Qi Yan used his newly acquired editing skills to cut the video very smoothly.

When it comes to cunning, no one can match a snake. After watching Qi Yan fiddle with it for a few moments, he understood what this thing was.

Qi Yan edited the video, while She Zhang offered advice from the sidelines.

The two colluded.

The highlighted parts were accompanied by highly suggestive text.

For example, what is the true face of actress Xiang Zhiyi? Is she Ke Ying or Ke Ying? Who did the actress kill? Why did she do this?

Qi Yan's gossip account is very active and frequent. Due to some unknown bug, it often manages to grab a spot in the front row, and many of the accounts look familiar.

Qi Yan posted his first video ever.

The name is shocking and terrifying: it takes you into the truth behind Xiang Zhiyi's murder.

To everyone and netizens: ? ? ?

Xiang Zhiyi has filmed a new movie? A new movie narration?

They clicked in completely bewildered, and then their eyes widened as they looked at the screen.

Oh my god!

Was Jiang Si targeted by Xiang Zhiyi?

Did Xiang Zhiyi commit murder?

My first reaction was definitely disbelief.

While everyone was still in shock, fans had already rushed over and frantically reported Qi Yan's account.

The reason given was that it was a rumor.

Is this true?

[Who would be so despicable as to spread such rumors? The Best Actress has no need to, and doesn't require, to go after Jiang Si, okay?]

[Evidence has been collected; the blogger is going to jail!]

[Haha, using someone else's audition clips for dubbing, could it be that Jiang Si's family did it?]

[This is a post that has been forwarded over 500 times and will result in criminal charges. Please be aware.]

Despite the relentless efforts of Xiang Zhiyi's fans to control the comments, some believed it was merely a setup through editing, until someone pointed out:

[Wait a minute, I'm a student at Pingyuan University, isn't that our school in front of us? Holy crap, I decorated this room myself! No wonder it looked so familiar! The background in the back is clearly her house, I've seen her on variety shows!]

[This isn't some audition clip; she said it herself, and it happened just yesterday!]

[Holy crap, I don't care anymore whether Jiang Si was framed by Xiang Zhiyi, I care about murder! Murder! This isn't some kind of competitive tactic!]

[I'm completely innocent. Is the angelic actress Xiang a murderer?]

I need some peace and quiet!

Am I a house that's collapsed?!

[Holy crap, other people's lawbreakers at most get their sentences cut short, but mine's going to be life imprisonment or more?! Am I going to have to visit them in jail from now on?!]

I was so excited about this road that I posted many messages about it.

Following numerous reports, Qi Yan's videos were shut down.

But it doesn't matter, everyone and passersby had already saved it.

Then things took a turn that were beyond the control of Xiang Zhiyi's fans.

Overnight, the video was shared everywhere.

Netizens are very open-minded. Even if it's a rumor, with so many people forwarding it over 500 times, how can they possibly sue everyone? The law doesn't punish everyone, and if anyone's going to be investigated, it'll be the source.

Netizens were completely baffled: How could such a kind and sunny person, like an angel, be a murderer?

With Xiang Zhiyi being a renowned actress, and the film still showing in theaters, it's dominating the box office and poised to become the year's highest-grossing film, potentially even ranking among the top ten highest-grossing films in Chinese film history.

Her outstanding acting skills have made her a frequent topic of trending searches.

The capital behind this is deeply entrenched. Regardless of whether it's true or not, we can't let this matter escalate at this critical juncture. We need to delete posts and ban people from speaking.

Cover it for as long as you can.

However, the situation was too big to handle.

#Xiang Zhiyi frames Jiang Si#

#Xiang Zhiyi suspected of being involved in a murder case#

#Xiang Zhiyi, Ke Ying, or Ke Ying#

...

The entries were popping up everywhere, and there weren't enough to keep up with the banning. This caused a backlash from netizens, who then moved on to the next entry.

The power of internet users is limitless; give them a single thread and they can lead you to the spider's lair.

Ke Ying was quickly exposed.

Speaking of Ke Ying, I remember her.

[I'm a long-time fan of celebrities. I also remember Ke Ying. She's very pretty, with a similar look to Xiang Zhiyi. The two of them even marketed themselves as sister duos. I haven't seen her since she announced her retirement from the entertainment industry two years ago.]

[It's chilling to think about. He said he retired from the entertainment industry, but was he actually killed by Xiang Zhiyi?]

I glanced at the records a few times before, and it seems like a missing person report was filed, but nothing came of it.

Speaking of which, Ke Ying was quite popular back then, but it seems like her career just suddenly stalled and she faded away.

A large number of onlookers gathered under the comments sections of major official media outlets, demanding a thorough investigation and the discovery of the truth.

Whether it was a frame-up or not, whether there was murder, please give the public an explanation.

Xiang Zhiyi's fan group was filled with gloom and despair.

They tried to argue back, but were immediately labeled as brainless fans, with Xiang Zhiyi being called a murderer repeatedly.

Wake up! This isn't just messing with a rival, this is murder!

[Do your parents know you're a fan of a murderer?]

【I'll break their legs first!】

[If not, get your murderer sister to clarify!]

Yeah, is it so hard to say I didn't kill anyone?

Is it possible that Xiang Zhiyi has already been apprehended and imprisoned?

[As a family member of a police officer, it shouldn't be that quick. There needs to be some evidence. You can't convict someone based on just a few words. If I film a video saying I killed someone, does that mean I really did?]

Xiang Zhiyi's fans never imagined that one day they would be the ones despised by thousands like rats in the street.
