☆、75 people's blood steamed bun
Outside the emergency room, there was a cacophony of crying, pleading, and noise. The second child was helping the third child with the necessary paperwork for surgery and hospitalization. The eldest child was alone. His face was filled with anxiety, and he just wanted to ask them to go out and talk, not to block them here and delay the third child's treatment. But when people are selfish, how can they distinguish between time and place?
At that moment, Feng Jin's mother held onto her eldest son's hand tightly, her long nails digging into his flesh as she cried out, "Please save him! It's been so many years, and you're doing well now. I gave your family the 500,000 yuan, didn't I?"
"Yes," Wang Chuan's mother chimed in, "How could you bear to see your aunt, at such an old age, die?"
As for the other parents, they all used similar words to persuade the eldest child, not listening to what he said at all. As for the nurses around them reminding them that "this is the emergency room", they completely ignored it.
After all, in their hearts, only their own children's lives mattered; others' meant nothing. As for the life or death of the third child, what did it matter to them? All they had to do was ensure their children's survival. Just like when the eldest child was bullied at school, the insults he suffered nearly drove him to death. But the parents of Feng Jin and the other four simply wanted to ensure their sons' records were spotless.
So, after the boss called the police, they went after his mother and bought out the equity that originally belonged to him for 500,000 yuan from her, forcing him to sign the settlement agreement.
This time, they used the same method again. In order to prevent the eldest brother from saying no, they not only took advantage of his concern for the third brother, but also used online public opinion to force him to comply.
It was clearly a private plea for forgiveness, yet they shamelessly broadcast the entire process live, using the so-called mother's concern for her child to gain one-sided sympathy from netizens.
Naturally, they succeeded. Most people instinctively sympathize with the weak, and the crying child always gets candy. Even though the absurd behavior of Feng Jin and his five companions is unforgivable, the sight of their mother crying so hard over her child still evoked sympathy among many online viewers.
"Actually, the anchor is doing well now, so it doesn't matter if he is forgiven." Someone couldn't help but make a sympathetic comment, but was quickly refuted.
"If you're not involved, please refrain from commenting. If those videos are real, then these people are unforgivable."
"Isn't it just children bullying children? At least he is still alive now, but if he doesn't forgive, the other five will have to die."
"Don't be such a saint upstairs bitch, if the same thing happened to you, would you forgive me? Isn't this just forcing me to be morally blackmailed?"
"It has nothing to do with moral kidnapping, right? The situation is already very clear now. Those five people were arrested by his crazy fans, just to avenge their favorite anchor. If he doesn't forgive, five people will die soon. Does this count as moral kidnapping? And the people who arrested them are his fans, so shouldn't he be held accountable for this?"
"Human life is more important than anything else. Wouldn't it be better to forgive them first and then let them live to atone for their sins? Besides, didn't the anchor sign the settlement agreement back then? He didn't take the 500,000 yuan, but he gave it to his mother. Look, he's successful now, why would he kill him?"
"The point is, the root of all this was caused by him, so it's only natural that he should be held responsible."
To the public, guilt is indeed guilt, but when human life is involved, even the bloody humiliation seems to take a back seat. After all, emotional trauma can be whitewashed by time and oblivion. As long as the pain isn't felt by the individual, from a moral high ground, any "reasonable" demands are perfectly justifiable.
But the boss is still a popular psychic anchor in the outdoor live broadcast circle. Even though his fans have always been indifferent, they have stood up and spoken out when they were forced into this situation. But in the end, his words are not influential.
Furthermore, Feng Jin's father, determined to fully exploit public opinion, even resorted to hiring a troll army to smear the boss. He didn't feel he was doing anything wrong; after all, it was to save his son's life. Three years ago, the boss had been threatening Feng Jin to death, even severing ties with his biological mother after she pressured him into signing a settlement agreement. He never contacted her again. Now that he was older, his mother was no longer effective, so naturally, he had to find other leverage to suppress him.
"Isn't this too harsh?" Wang Chuan's father looked at the information in Feng Jin's father's hand and felt uneasy. This was no longer just using public opinion to force the boss to forgive him; if not handled properly, it would be tantamount to destroying him.
What's more, it was indeed the children of their families who did something wrong in the beginning, and what happened now is also an unprovoked disaster for the eldest brother. Is it really okay to force a young man who is just 20 years old like this?
But Feng Jin's father dispelled his sympathy with just one sentence, "Your son is almost dead, do you still have the mood to care about others?"
"Wang Chuan's father fell silent for a moment, and then handed everything over to Feng Jin's father. He might still have some conscience, but people are selfish, and when things happen to them, they will be punished by heaven and earth if they don't care about themselves.
Just like that, new gossip about this incident has surfaced online. Someone posted a picture online, which is probably a screenshot of the live broadcast of the Haunted House Halloween event. Someone on it revealed the clothes that the boss was wearing at the time.
"XX's private custom-made tie costs tens of thousands. This anchor is really as miserable as the Internet says. The average rich second generation can't afford to wear this kind of clothes. Even if they rent it, they can't afford the rent."
At the same time, someone posted a list of the richest people in the three live broadcast rooms of the boss. Although it is not as exaggerated as those of the talent anchors, the total amount of money is definitely more than that of the average well-off family.
"With this kind of income, he still says he has a poor background. If he were poor, I wouldn't even have enough to eat, okay?"
Someone else followed up and posted a photo of a luxury car with the license plate covered, with the boss getting out of it.
"Isn't this just an ordinary private car? What's so strange about it?" someone asked, not understanding the meaning of the photo. Then, someone knowledgeable explained it in the comment section.
"It's not an ordinary private car. It looks low-key, but it's actually worth millions."
"Fuck, that's really rich."
People online are known for their ability to make up stories, often jumping to conclusions. Seeing a luxury car, they imagine a row of Maseratis in their home. Seeing a custom-made outfit, they assume a wardrobe filled with Bulgari and Gucci.
Those who originally sympathized with the boss's past difficulties were also confused by these ambiguous investigations. There were even people who started to stir up trouble, from suspecting that the boss, a supernatural anchor, had someone behind him, to developing the suspicion that the boss was being supported by a big boss, and so on.
"If he's not a decent person, why is he using the excuse of school violence to make things worse? Isn't that disgusting enough?"
"And looking at the evidence that's been uncovered, maybe he was kept by someone in high school. If it were him, I'd be disgusted too. Those roommates probably just did it physically."
"It's speechless. I checked out his fan group on the live streaming platform and saw some CP fans and A fans. It's really disgusting to see two grown men being so clingy."
This wave of actions directly put the boss at the center of public opinion. After the original victim's identity was blurred, almost the entire network was attacking him.
The boss's fans finally couldn't help but speak.
"You know what? Those clothes are the uniforms of the Haunted House employees. Everyone in the Haunted House has the same set. They clearly posted photos of them on Weibo before."
"The car belongs to Rong. They were going back to school to get something that day, so Rong asked someone to take them there. They're just friends."
"What's wrong with us fans being fans of CP? It's just because they have a good relationship as brothers. We are not deliberately selling homosexuality. The interactions are all normal interactions between friends. Everyone knows that he had a girlfriend before. These are not his fault."
It is indeed based on evidence, but so what? When people choose to ignore, no matter how naked the truth is, it will be ignored. So every time there is a slight movement on the Internet, there will be those brainless trolls, typing away at their keyboards and spouting one sentence after another of their self-proclaimed classic nonsense.
In the hospital, the eldest brother didn't know what happened on the Internet. He was simply trapped between Feng Jin's mother and others, and was completely at a loss.
How could he possibly forgive him? But if he said no, someone would die. On one side was dignity, on the other was the life of his enemy. The boss felt this choice was unfair. He was clearly the victim, yet now all the blame was being forced upon him.
It's ridiculous.
He remained silent with a cold expression, but the constant vibration of his phone forced him to glance down. It wasn't a text message or a call, but rather the beeping "AT" notification from Weibo.
I don't know who came up with the idea of tagging him on Weibo to force him to forgive, and then tens of thousands of people tagged the boss's Weibo, shouting at him, and almost instantly crashed his phone.
"You are just a little wronged. Why can't you forgive them for the lives they are about to lose?"
"I don't know what happened back then and won't comment on it, but what you call unforgivable today is like holding a bloody bun and preparing to swallow it. If they really died, wouldn't you feel guilty?"
"You are so hypocritical and morally corrupt. Do you think you have the right to tell others not to forgive you?"
"Forgive him quickly"
"He must be forgiven"
“You don’t have the right to say no”
One after another, these seemingly rational forwarded comments were like sharp knives, stabbing the boss hard, leaving blood everywhere.
The coercion and accusations from these people were almost the same as when his mother forced him to sign the settlement agreement.
But why should he forgive
If Jingfeng hadn't seen that he was in trouble and helped him, he would have been buried in the ground by now. How could he still be standing here listening to their accusations?
But he wasn't dead after all, so all those "ifs" were bullshit. The boss suddenly felt a chill in his heart, a feeling that his blood was freezing, making him breathe cautiously. He madly missed the days when Yu Jiuyin, the second and third brothers, Xu Wang, and Gu Zhou were all here, but the truth was, he was the only one here.
He even had the illusion that all his efforts after being bullied at school were fake. He never had any so-called friends, and he never met Yu Jiuyin, who doted on him like a real brother.
From beginning to end, he was alone.
The phone rang again, this time it was a text message.
The boss mechanically lowered his head and clicked on it. It was the same internet number, but this time it had only one sentence: "See? I'm the only one in the world who truly cares about you."
These words seemed to have some kind of magic power, causing all of the boss's repression to burst out, and he suddenly developed a feeling of world-weariness.
At this moment, the mobile phone in his hand was suddenly snatched away. The boss looked up and saw that it was Xu Wang who rushed over after seeing the news.
At this moment, after Xu Wang finished reading the text messages in his boss's phone with a cold face, he didn't care whether the other party could receive it or not. He typed a string of words on it, "I saw shit" and then threw the phone into the hands of the lawyer who followed him.
"Go talk to the police outside and tell them that my junior has received personal threats and needs legal protection. As for these people now..." Xu Wang looked at them for a while, "The appeal period for the campus violence case has not yet passed. If you don't intend to sue again, don't come and disturb my junior. This is a hospital, not a place for you to make a scene."
After Xu Wang finished speaking, the lawyer and the hospital guards who followed him forcibly sent these people away.
Things took a turn for the better, and Feng Jin's mother, who had been confident of victory, immediately became anxious. She ignored everything else and cursed Xu Wang madly.
"Why did you send me away? I just want your forgiveness. As long as he forgives me, my son can live."
"Let go, let go"
"I recognized you. You're the son of Xu's Construction, a rich second-generation, right? Let me tell you, you're useless. You have no right to do this to me. You're breaking the law."
"My son is dying, you are the murderers, you killed him"
A series of events had caused the eldest brother's mental breakdown to the extreme, and Feng Jin's mother's last words almost directly hit the most vulnerable point in his heart. He was silent for a long time, and finally broke out.
"I will never forgive Feng Jin, even in my dreams." The boss was panting heavily, his pale face even uglier than that of a ghost.
Three years ago, he'd endured humiliation at the hands of Feng Jin and his five companions. He'd considered suicide but was afraid of the sight of blood. He'd even taken a job at a mall just to earn enough money to buy sleeping pills and choose a more comfortable death. Now, he realized, it wasn't that he was being sentimental back then; it was simply that he lacked the courage to truly die. If he truly wanted to, he could die in any way.
He suddenly smiled with relief, walked forward a few steps, and tilted his head to look at Feng Jin's mother and others.
"Didn't you just say that if I don't forgive you, then I'm the murderer, so how about I give you my life now?"
The easiest things to find in the hospital are knives and scissors, most of which are the scissors used to cut gauze placed on the nurse's cart next to him. The boss picked it up and stabbed himself in the chest.
He couldn't even feel the pain because he was completely disappointed with the world. At the same time, at this moment, the boss finally understood why Jingfeng committed suicide in such a dirty place as the boiler room.
It wasn't that they were being plotted against, but that they really didn't want to live anymore. Because this world is so damn dirty, but even dirtier than that is themselves.
"Even if I die, I will never forgive them." After the boss said this, he became limp.
Xu Wang subconsciously went over to catch him, and then he almost collapsed.
It happened so fast. He hadn't anticipated the eldest brother's drastic actions. As for the others, they were completely stunned. The second brother had just finished processing the paperwork for the third brother, and when he saw this scene, he was immediately furious.
"Where's the doctor?" Compared to Xu Wang, the second brother was almost going crazy. One brother was lying in the emergency room, and now another one was lying there. What the hell was going on?
As a result, Feng Jin's mother and others were escorted out of the hospital by the hospital guards. As for those who saw this scene live on the Internet, they were extremely shocked.
Because no matter what the final outcome of Feng Jin and the others is, as long as the boss dies, all the spokespersons who participated in the topic will be killed by him word by word.
Each of them is an executioner with blood on his hands.
By the time Yu Jiuyin and Rongqing arrived at the hospital, the situation was completely over. The Xu family's security guards, working with the police, had completely isolated the emergency room for the eldest and third sons from the rest of the hospital. Aside from the nurses and doctors involved, no one else, not even their biological parents, was allowed in. So, at the emergency room entrance, only the blood-soaked second son and Xu Wang sat vacantly on a bench, their minds unsettled as to whether they were anxious or simply lost in thought.
"Brother Yu!" Hearing the noise of someone approaching, Xu Wanghong turned around, his eyes reddening, not knowing what to say. Ever since the matter with his sister ended, Xu Wang had never encountered such a frustrating situation again. As for the second brother, he was completely stunned, staring at Yu Jiuyin with a long smile, and finally hugged Yu Jiuyin like a child and burst into tears.
"They're bullying me too much." The second child is not very good at speaking but is kind. He is always the one who gets bullied when he is with others. Now that something has happened, he doesn't know what to say. He just keeps repeating the same thing over and over again.
Yu Jiuyin glanced at Xu Wang beside him. Xu Wang calmed down and walked over to tell Yu Jiuyin about the situation in detail.
"How could something happen to the boss if Lingdang and Qiuqiu were not with you all the time?"
"The third brother is in a bad condition. Qiuqiu and Lingdang are keeping him in the emergency room. It's all my fault. I saw that he looked unwell, so I asked him to wait here while I went to handle the paperwork myself. It's all my fault." The second brother regretted it so much. "The third brother told me very early on that the eldest brother must not be left alone. I knew he was in a bad mood, but if I hadn't left, he wouldn't have gotten into trouble."
"It's not your fault." Yu Jiuyin patted the boss's shoulder soothingly, but his eyes were extremely cold.
"I'll contact the dean to inquire about the situation." Rong Qing's first thought was to stabilize the condition of the eldest and third child. Everything else could be put aside; the most important thing was to ensure the safety of the two.
"Well, you go first." Yu Jiuyin nodded, Rongqing turned the wheelchair and went out first.
With the identity of the head of the Rong family, Rong Qing was very efficient in his work, and the Rong family quickly sent two of the best experts in City B. After understanding the patient's condition, they quickly entered the operating room to assist in emergency treatment.
When Rongqing returned, he immediately sensed the presence of Guiwa and Brother Lingdang. Looking back, the little guy was sitting at the door of the eldest child's emergency room with a stern face. As for Brother Lingdang, he had already entered the emergency room of the third child, and Lingdang and he were each holding the third child's hand.
He immediately understood that this was the person Yu Jiuyin had called to calm their souls. In addition, he probably also hoped that the ghost boy's property of bringing wealth and fortune would allow the two of them to suffer less.
As for Yu Jiuyin, he sat in a chair, fiddling with a few copper coins. Linglong stood to his left, and Bai Zhiqiu was holding his hand with his right. Seeing Rongqing return with everything arranged, Yu also stood up.
"Let's go, this is none of our business. Call your special case team and let's go arrest them now."
"You found the place" Rongqing was a little shocked.
"Well, thanks to the boss, I found it."
"You" Rongqing felt that Yu Jiuyin was in a bad mood. He wanted to persuade her, but the occasion was not right, so he didn't say it in the end.
There was no conversation along the way. Yu Jiuyin took Rongqing directly to the villa area in the eastern suburbs.
In Jingfeng's previous case, Yu Jiuyin couldn't use divination to pinpoint the culprit, as there was no causal relationship between him and Jingfeng. However, Lao Da was different. Although not related by blood, he was like a younger brother to him. Given this profound causal connection, Yu Jiuyin's goal of finding the perpetrator was naturally much easier.
What's more, as a ghost master, Yu Jiuyin has more than one evil ghost who is good at divination. Although Bai Zhiqiu is not as proficient as Linglong, he has a good talent. With the help of the two of them, Yu Jiuyin's divination will be more accurate. He can even calculate the name of the party villa almost accurately.

Yu Jiuyin, don't cry, brother will hug you
