"Hurry up and call your people to come and help dig. There are so many boxes, I really can't handle it by myself."
With that, Gu Nan picked up the shovel again and started digging enthusiastically in front of a group of police officers.
The veteran police officer was stunned by Gu Nan's words. He and the young officer next to him exchanged glances, looking at each other, both somewhat at a loss.
Seeing that there was still no movement behind him, Gu Nan frowned and turned around: "Uncle, are you still pretending? If you keep dragging this out, we'll all be finished if the police really come!"
Gu Nan really couldn't understand why they just stood there and didn't help at all when they actually arrived, even though they had talked so well on the phone.
Could it be that they want more benefits?
In an instant, Gu Nan suddenly realized, and smiled helplessly: "How about this, I'll give you a quarter of these treasures, since we'll be cooperating in the future anyway."
After saying that, Gu Nan took the shovel and walked forward, intending to pat the veteran police officer on the shoulder.
But the moment he reached out his hand, the veteran officer clearly flinched back and made a defensive gesture, reaching his hand towards his waist.
Seeing this, Gu Nan stood there, his body tense, creating a tense standoff with the veteran police officer in front of him.
His eyes were filled with doubt, and his initial firm belief that these police officers were there to pick him up suddenly began to waver.
No matter how you looked at it, these people in police uniforms watched him with bated breath, their hands tightly gripping their weapons, and showed no sign of friendliness or assistance whatsoever.
Gu Nan began to feel uneasy, and fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.
"Uncle, I haven't mistaken you for someone else, have I?"
Gu Nan steeled himself and gestured to the police, but they didn't react at all, simply watching his every move silently.
This silence made his heart beat faster and his thoughts became increasingly chaotic.
Could something have gone wrong?
He couldn't help but recall the arrangements he had made with the buyer. They had clearly agreed that he would come immediately, so why was the situation like this now?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and a chill ran down his spine.
Could these people really be police officers?
That shouldn't be happening! In TV dramas, the police only arrive after something has already happened. How come the police are here before the bad guys even show up?
Thinking of this, Gu Nan suddenly burst into laughter, then revealed a determined look in his eyes as if he wanted to join the Communist Youth League: "Police officers, I've found a batch of cultural relics here, and I'm going to hand them over to the state!"
"Alright, then you all go ahead with your work. No need to thank me, just call me Lei Feng. It's an honor to do things for the country!"
After saying that, Gu Nan turned around and prepared to leave.
"Subdue him!"
After observing for a while, the veteran police officer had determined that the man in front of him was a fool who had nothing but a shovel in his hand, so there was no need to worry about him.
Upon hearing the order, the two young policemen immediately stepped forward, one on each side, grabbed Gu Nan's arms, and pinned him to the ground.
Even though Gu Nan tried to imitate the Dragon King's laughter every day, he was powerless against the well-trained police officers and could only shout, "Uncle Police, why are you arresting me? I didn't do it!"
"In this place, not a single person who knows the name Gu Bei is a good person."
"And what about you, Gu Bei's son?"
The veteran police officer handed over the "silver bracelet," then personally led Gu Nan to the police car, while the remaining officers stayed behind to cordon off the scene.
Gu Nan, sitting in the police car, looked at the small hill with a face full of despair and confusion: "Who was it? Who called the police?!"
...
...
In Er Ya's convenience store, Mu Liuyun sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), fiddling with various photography equipment, while Sister Wang sat beside her looking at her phone.
Having just seen the police arrive, Mu Liuyun confidently returned to the convenience store. He was convinced that with Gu Nan's intelligence, he would definitely be able to get himself arrested.
After returning home and having dinner, Mu Jianghe and Sun Xingmin went to wash the dishes, while Mu Liuyun prepared today's video.
Wow!
Suddenly, Sister Wang, who was scrolling through her phone, exclaimed in surprise.
Mu Liuyun looked up and saw Sister Wang shoving her phone screen right in her face.
"Xiaoyun, our video is going viral again!"
Sister Wang was somewhat incoherent, her entire face flushed with excitement, her eyes wide, and her hands gripping the phone screen so tightly that her knuckles began to turn white.
His excitement even surpassed his performance after the first video was released.
Seeing Wang Jie's reaction, Mu Liuyun smiled helplessly: "Is it really necessary? It's not like it's the first time."
"No, this time is different!"
As she spoke, Sister Wang adjusted her phone screen to an angle that Mu Liuyun could also see.
"Ones, tens, hundreds, tens of millions, tens of millions!"
Mu Liuyun grabbed Sister Wang's phone and examined it closely.
The video, released in less than 24 hours, garnered over 10 million views and unsurprisingly topped the trending charts.
"What's going on?"
Mu Liuyun couldn't understand why her video editing results were better than expected, given how careless she was yesterday.
He couldn't help but scroll through the comments section, and his excitement vanished instantly.
"I thought Er Ya was pretty enough, but I didn't expect someone to be even more beautiful than her. Whose subordinate is this!"
"Mom, I'm in love."
"I strongly request that the female photographer be given a role!"
Upon seeing these comments, Mu Liuyun immediately understood what had happened. He quickly reviewed the video and then saw his own fleeting moment in the frame.
Half of the comments were focused on this scene, causing Mu Liuyun to collapse onto the bed and cover her forehead with one arm.
Seeing Mu Liuyun's reaction, Sister Wang quickly sat down next to her: "Xiaoyun, why aren't you happy that the video went viral?"
"I included myself in the clip."
Mu Liuyun, on the verge of tears, spoke with a hint of grievance in her voice, which made Sister Wang feel a little itchy. However, she quickly composed herself and asked, puzzled, "So what if you're going to be on camera? Xiaoyun, are you that socially awkward?"
Mu Liuyun couldn't explain it. On one hand, he was worried that Uncle Dong and Lao Mo, whom he had met some time ago, would see it, and on the other hand, he was afraid that those women would see it.
"No, I'm afraid..."
Halfway through his sentence, Mu Liuyun suddenly burst out laughing, laughing at his own naivety and narcissism.
Given Uncle Dong and Lao Mo's casual killing attitude, it wouldn't be difficult for them to find me. What's the use of hiding? I might as well stand out openly and maybe that will make them a little wary.
As for Chu Yaqin and Shen Lanxin, they had already broken off relations when they left, so how could they possibly come looking for them?
"I never imagined I was such a narcissistic person..."
"Xiaoyun, what did you say?"
"It's nothing, we'll start the live stream tonight!"
Mu Liuyun's voice grew louder, as if she had made up her mind.
