Pu Xi was not joking, he really had never been in love.
Not only that, he has hardly ever had any contact with girls. Although his family background destined him to be a social expert and he is not afraid of socializing at all, when it comes to personal relationships, he actually doesn't have many friends.
And no matter how socially adept you are, it’s all in vain if the person you’re socializing with isn’t a human.
Pu Xi didn't faint and was able to force himself to speak. His biggest confidence was because he knew Bai Qiuwu was under his bed.
This realization allowed him to survive a little longer.
Mingming was hiding under the quilt, without any light, but he still closed his eyes and spoke loudly in a trembling voice: "I know you are wronged, I know you are wronged, tell me, I will make the decision for you."
"After all these years, you must be eager to be free. Just tell me what grievances you have suffered. I came here just for you. I want to help you!"
Although he was afraid and wanted to pinch his philtrum to stay awake, when the time came for the arrow to be shot, Pu Xi still tried to make his words sound more sincere.
Under the threat of death, everyone showed their acting prowess and performed exceptionally well. Pu Xi felt that he could even win an Oscar for Best Actor. He was so moved by what he said.
Just imagine this, even if it means risking one's own life to save others from danger, which girl would not be moved?
Although this girl can no longer be considered a girl in the traditional sense, she is almost the same.
What's more, according to Bai Qiuwu's analysis in the afternoon, this enthusiastic girl should not have done anything to actually hurt anyone.
If she really wanted to harm someone, she wouldn't have been silent for a long time last night and had to wait until Bai Qiuwu came out to scare her away.
If he was really a vicious monster, Pu Xi would have died a thousand times last night.
Although she probably scared a lot of people crazy, it's like some girls being afraid of caterpillars. They know that caterpillars can't cause much harm to them and are incredibly weak compared to humans, but they are still afraid of them.
This is what Pu Xi thought. Although a big part of the reason was that he was just comforting himself, it was still useful.
I don’t know if his words were really effective, or if his acting skills fooled the girl, but the girl’s crying actually stopped slowly.
The surroundings gradually became silent.
Pu Xi still didn't dare to look over, because he still had a creepy feeling. He knew that the girl should not have left yet.
But now that you have stopped crying, is it time to express your grievances?
Thinking of this, Pu Xi became extremely alert, but after waiting for a while, there was still nothing.
I only vaguely seemed to hear the slight sound of something falling to the ground, and then the gloomy feeling slowly faded away.
The window seemed to creak, as if something had gone out.
Did he leave?
Pu Xi was confused, but still didn't dare to look out and continued to wait patiently.
Until Bai Qiuwu's voice sounded: "Okay, she's gone."
Pu Xi still didn't dare to move and hid under the quilt, shivering.
Will his voice change if his mind is full of the passionate girl? I think there is a paragraph like this in the novel, where a lost person often hears a familiar person calling his name, and when he turns around, he sees a ghost wall or something.
His messy imagination made him dare not act rashly.
Bai Qiuwu became a little impatient and directly pulled back his quilt.
"Are you really that timid? Were you not very good at speaking just now?"
Pu Xi was startled, but when she saw that it was really Bai Qiuwu, she breathed a sigh of relief and immediately burst into tears: "Sister, am I successful?"
"Yes, very much so. You are the most promising one."
Bai Qiuwu answered perfunctorily, then bent down and picked up a tattered object from the ground.
The cover is red, but it is so worn that you can no longer see the golden font on the outside. You can only vaguely see a pattern.
Bai Qiuwu opened it and took a look, and was stunned.
Pu Xi became curious when he saw her reaction, so he quickly got up from the bed and looked over.
"What is that?"
Then he saw that it was actually a worn-out student ID card.
A City University of Science and Technology, Class of XX, Bai Ting.
Because it is too severely worn, only the blurred handwriting can be seen on it, which makes it a little difficult to recognize, but the content can still be seen.
The most important thing is that there is a photo of a girl with a bright smile on this student ID card. Although her face is not very clear, it can still be seen that she is a very young and beautiful girl.
"A City University of Science and Technology, a top double-first-class university..." Pu Xi was so surprised that his eyes almost popped out.
"Where did you get this thing? Such a small, poor place with such poor educational resources, but it actually produced such a top-tier university. It's amazing."
Bai Qiuwu looked at him like an idiot and said, "Didn't you hear the noise just now? That enthusiastic girl left it for you. You are so sincere and you moved her."
Pu Xi: “???”
Pu Xi's eyes widened, his face filled with questions. His voice trembled with shock. "Is this what that girl left behind? Why did she give us this student ID?"
"Wait, could this student ID be hers? She doesn't look like she's from the village. Could she have been kidnapped?"
"Oh my god, that makes sense. Why is there such a big contradiction? Why did she lose her foot? She must have been trafficked here, and then she tried to escape, and then her foot was chopped off."
Pu Xina was not stupid either. Once he figured it out, he was very smart and figured out most of the things immediately.
Bai Qiuwu actually thought so, but before she confirmed it, she thought about it and said, "Now that the identity is clear, you should find a way to contact this young lady's family."
"Why don't we just make a phone call and ask if Bai Ting is missing?"
Pu Xi was also a man who acted decisively. He immediately took out his cell phone and made a call without caring that it was already the middle of the night.
While he was on the phone, Bai Qiuwu was also looking at the barrage. The popularity had dropped slightly compared to when the show first aired, but after this recent climax, the number of people quickly increased again.
In fact, the longer the live broadcast time, the more amazing it is to be able to maintain the initial peak, not to mention this kind of live broadcast, which can repeatedly surpass the peak. The income of this live broadcast is already unpredictable.
Because Bai Qiuwu promised Pu Yao to complete the financial statements, he now pays special attention to this aspect. Seeing such gratifying changes, he works harder.
She first checked to see if the snow screen had appeared again, and then looked at the barrage.
What's going on? This livestream is getting weirder and weirder. How on earth are they creating this snowy screen? Is there really someone behind the scenes? But it doesn't feel right. This eerie feeling is terrifying. Is it just a psychological effect? No, I'm a little scared.
[Where's the promised fight against feudal superstition? Why do I feel more and more scared the more I watch? Is this really a live broadcast that a timid and innocent weak woman like me should watch? Damn, I feel that all the plots here are terrifying when you think about them carefully. It's very scary, but I just want to watch it. I'm so conflicted.]
[Oh my god, I feel like this storyline is getting quite emotional. This must be some ignorant female college student who was abducted to the countryside. Her feet were even chopped off. What kind of inhuman torture must she have endured? Damn the human traffickers!]
[Family members, stop talking about scripts. I just searched online for a missing female science and engineering student and found out that this really happened. It was quite a big deal at the time, and you can still find news about it online. It said that a student named Bai from the science and engineering school went out for a trip and never came back. We called the police, but they can't find her.]
[I also searched it, and wow, this actually happened 5 years ago. It was said to be quite a big deal at the time. I read a lot of news, and there were a lot of comments and attention. This must have been amazing news back then. It's just that there seems to be no follow-up. This young lady has never been found, so was she actually abducted here?]
Damn those human traffickers! How could anyone extend their evil hands to their own people? For such a small sum of money, aren't they afraid of retribution? And those who buy people are truly vicious. Do they know that one child represents the breakup of two, or even three, families? It's so selfish! I'm already feeling sad.
Can we kill all the human traffickers? The crackdown is still too lenient. If human traffickers were sentenced to death upon capture, would there still be so many of them? And girls out there, you must protect yourselves. This world really isn't that kind! And Master Bai, you must help this poor girl!
But I still think she shouldn't tear up someone else's umbrella just because she's been caught in the rain. No matter how miserable she was, she shouldn't take her anger out on innocent people. What crime did those missing people and those frightened people commit? If you really want revenge, go find these villagers. Why should innocent people pay for your own injustice?
Yes, yes, even if this sister is truly miserable, that's no reason for her to kill innocent people. So many people have disappeared from this village, is there no explanation? Or has it simply been forgotten? Aren't those innocent victims also miserable? Don't sympathize with a bad person just because she herself suffered a tragic fate!
…
This worn-out student ID card was too hot to handle, and it immediately sparked a round of heated discussion. Bai Qiuwu also felt it was a pity.
Such a wonderful girl withered away silently in the deep mountains and forests, and she might not be the only one.
As for whether the disappearance of the other people is related to this girl, Bai Qiuwu currently has reservations.
She was about to explain a few words to the barrage, but Pu Xi had already returned from the phone call.
Pu Xi: "I asked someone, and this young lady named Bai Ting has not been found. She has been missing for five and a half years, and her family has given up looking for her."
"It's said that more than five years ago, this girl went out to play and was deceived. I don't know how she disappeared. Now I think she was probably sold here by human traffickers."
"This village is far away. If you want to go to the city, you have to take a special bus, and the ride alone takes a long time. It's impossible to run there. There are mountains all around, and there's nowhere to run. There's only one road out, so it's easy to catch up."
"This girl must have escaped, then been caught and had her legs chopped off as punishment. I don't know how she died afterwards, and because of her deep resentment, she has stayed here ever since."
"If nothing unexpected happens, the village chief's son is the mastermind behind this girl's miserable life. So, the girl was really unwilling to accept it, so she came back and took the village chief's son away. This matter has become a taboo in the village again."
After asking about the girl's background, Pu Xi pieced together the entire story line. The logic was completely sound, and the truth was very likely to be this.
Bai Qiuwu nodded in approval.
Pu Xi was a little happy to see that she agreed with him, and immediately asked, "What should we do now? This girl is in a very miserable situation. Should we make the decision for her?"
"Should we call the police now?"
Bai Qiuwu looked at him like an idiot: "Do you have evidence to prove that this girl died here? Everyone in this village says no, how can you prove it?"
"Do you know where the person is buried? What can the police do if they come? They'll just scare away the snakes! We have to call the police, but not now. We have to find evidence."
Pu Xi was stunned by what he said, and subconsciously pointed at the thing in Bai Qiuwu's hand: "Isn't this considered evidence?"
Bai Qiuwu: "Then how do you prove that we didn't get this from outside? How do you prove that Bai Ting gave it to us?"
Pu Xi wanted to say that the camera recorded it, but then he thought, when that beautiful sister appeared, there was background music and snowflake effects, and the camera couldn't capture anything at all.
Besides, even if they did film it, what would happen? Would they tell the police that even though she was dead, she had reported the crime herself?
It would be strange if the police didn't spray them to death.
Just like Bai Qiuwu said, we must call the police, but not now.
It is best to report the case and arrest the person directly after obtaining sufficient evidence, so that the matter can be settled.
Otherwise, if we call the police, not only will it alert the enemy, but they may not find any clues and may even return empty-handed.
Pu Xi finally figured this out, but before he could say anything, Bai Qiuwu said, "Besides, where did those missing people go? We haven't found them yet."
"This young lady didn't even hurt you, so I don't think she would hurt anyone. So what about those missing people? I feel like there's something fishy going on here too."
Bai Qiuwu said, as if he had made up his mind, and suddenly said: "So, why don't we disappear for a while?"
"That way we can know where those missing people were dumped."
Pu Xi: “?”
Netizens: “?”
