On the news?
"Sister Luoluo!!!" After hearing what happened last night, Xie Wan and Lin Meimei were very worried. Lin Meimei couldn't come because of something urgent, so she could only ask Xie Wan to bring greetings.
Xie Wan came here with her uncle Xie Xinghe. "So, this big white cat was the key to catching the thief last night?"
Xie Xinghe's tone was somewhat teasing. When he saw this heroic big white cat with beautiful fur, he could hardly walk and stretched out his hand to rub it.
The white cat dodged nimbly.
"Haha!" Xie Wan couldn't help but laugh at her uncle: "Uncle, I don't want you to hug me!"
After saying that, Xie Wan was also a little eager to try. After all, she always got along well with animals like cats and dogs. Unfortunately, just when she stretched out her hand to touch the white cat, the white cat took a step back and slipped to Xue Luo's side.
Xie Wan: “…”
Xie Xinghe: "You're talking about me, you're almost the same!"
The uncle and nephew were almost about to start a childish quarrel again. Gong Dongfeng on the side stroked his chin and looked at the aloof cat. The cat was unmoved and stood proudly beside Xueluo, watching this farce.
"Boss Xue, have you named your cat?"
It was this simple question that succeeded in making the white cat, who had been particularly reserved just now, stiffen for a moment.
Xie Wan and Xie Xinghe looked over at the same time.
Xueluo smiled and said, "Of course, Bai Xue!"
"Bai Xue? What a good name, what a good name!" Xie Xinghe praised without reservation.
Xie Wan wrinkled her nose, "Sister Luoluo, why do I feel like this name sounds familiar?"
"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs!" Gong Dongfeng, who is very familiar with all kinds of snacks in stores and online stores, suddenly had an idea and blurted out.
"Snow White?" Xie Xinghe looked at the slightly stiff white cat beside Xueluo and laughed heartily, "You know what, Luoluo, the name you chose really suits him."
"Cold and cute?" Xie Wan added.
"Pfft. No... Do you really think it's okay for Maomao to say that?" Gong Dongfeng said.
Xie Wan hummed, "It's Snow White, where are the seven dwarfs?"
Xueluo: "...well, there's no such thing. Anyway, it really likes this name."
"Shirayuki, isn't that right?"
The white cat meowed weakly, which was considered a reluctant response to Xue Luo.
Xueluo: "...Give me some face."
Xue Luo squatted down and stretched out her hands to it, but the white cat just glanced at her and didn't cooperate at all.
Xueluo said awkwardly, "It seems like it treats us all equally."
Xie Xinghe: "This makes me feel much more comfortable."
Wu Xu grabbed the back of his neck and pushed the door open, just in time to see this lively scene: "Are you all here?"
"Uncle Wu!"
"Boss!"
“Master!”
Everyone was very happy to see him coming.
Except for the white cat, just when Wu Xu walked to the counter, a hint of emotion flashed across those icy blue eyes. She lowered her head and did not meet Wu Xu's gaze.
Xueluo had noticed long ago that Xiaobai and Uncle Wu didn't seem to get along. Although he selectively ignored others, he completely ignored Uncle Wu. It wasn't like he was afraid of him, but rather that they seemed a little awkward together.
Xue Luo finally figured it out. She glanced at the white cat, and the white cat raised its whiskers and pretended to know nothing.
On that day's city news, a reporter happened to be covering a prison interview. Normally, such interviews would be used to promote the Alliance's humane governance practices. However, a rather amusing incident occurred during this interview.
It happened that the prison guard transferred a habitual thief to Prison No. 11. After hearing that the other party had weak mental power and special abilities, he became a frequent visitor to Prison No. 11 because of his kleptomania.
This time the prison term is three months.
The reporter asked, "Mr. X, I heard you were sentenced to three months for stealing snacks worth approximately 250 Star Coins. Since you have special abilities, why can't you find a good job? So I want to ask, when you get out of here this time, will you reform yourself?"
The censored habitual thief: “%*&#…”
The reporter asked, "The prison guards said you're renting a house in a high-end neighborhood and your savings come from legitimate work. Why wouldn't you openly buy these 250 Star Coin snacks?"
Habitual thief: "...Give me another chance, I'm willing. I was really wrong this time, and I'm willing to cooperate with the prison guards to make corrections."
The reporter was satisfied, but couldn't help asking, "Let me interview you again. What snacks are you tempted to steal so late at night? Are they really that delicious? To put it bluntly, aren't snacks just junk food?"
Hearing the reporter's last disdainful remark, the habitual thief, who had been cooperative from the beginning, also got angry: "Don't even think about it! What a junk food! Their instant noodles and ham sausage are even better than the Alliance banquets I've had! And the beef jerky and tea eggs are simply heavenly..."
Once a habitual thief starts talking, he can talk endlessly.
On the news, the reporter's face turned pale and blue, forcing a smile. Finally, the director gave him a look, and he immediately said, "Okay, that's all for today's interview. Dear viewers, see you next time!"
Soon, the news jumped to an interview about the unmanned cultivation of roses in the neighboring area.
Yet, this interview video, which lasted less than three minutes, actually went viral on Star.net that day, with most netizens complaining about it.
"What do you mean snacks are junk food? You're so high-minded! You don't eat snacks, but don't you even pay attention to the stock market? Lejia Snack Group has been on a tear lately, hitting the daily limit, you know! Every year, just holding onto this stock would put me off work. That's how prevalent snacks are now!"
"I suspect this reporter is deliberately stirring up trouble. How does he speak? It's so unpleasant to listen to. Snacks aren't all junk food. Is this just some people's prejudice? If you don't eat snacks at work, your day is wasted!"
"The reporter is a complete idiot. He's a habitual thief. What's the contradiction between having money and continuing to steal?"
"This thief is kind of funny, isn't he? He spent three months in jail just for 250 star coin snacks. That's a serious 250!"
…
Some UP hosts who edit funny videos thought the conversation between the thief and the reporter was very interesting. It was originally a serious conversation, but it became weird after the editing.
The netizens who saw it were also amused, and the phrase "Don't even think about it" became popular along with the thief's indignant tone.
On Xingbo, a Xingbo account that authenticates Crystal Star City News, the comment section of the blog post "Today's News Quick Overview" attracted many people with fun:
"Wait a minute, I think this is delicious. Whose snack is this? It wasn't even mentioned in the news. I'm kind of greedy!"
"Instant noodles? Ham sausage? Beef jerky and a snack called tea eggs? Why do I seem to recognize all of these, but when they're put together, I have no idea what they are?"
"Hurry up and check out the link. I can't wait to taste it."
"Well, it seems you are really hungry!"
"Pfft, you guys have to be so outrageous! This is for everyone to discuss under the news, not for you to ask for snack links."
"Wow, tea eggs, eggs soaked in tea leaves? Chicken eggs, goose eggs, or duck eggs? And what about those instant noodles and ham sausage?"
…
In less than half an hour, out of the thousand messages in the comment section, one-third were asking for the link to the thief snacks.
It even attracted many snack merchants who took advantage of the situation.
For example, at the new Mengmeng Snack Shop, the customer service noticed that the owner had recently launched a new product called tea eggs. Of course, they couldn't wait to advertise it below: "Tea eggs are our newest snack, and they're super delicious. If you want to try them, come and have a look at our store~"
