The discovery of a body in a suburban pond where "fishing doesn't require a hook," MiNi falling into a sewer and dying, and shopkeepers being detained for hiring a hitman—all these events occurred on Yan Jiu's way to the airport.
This sparked heated discussions among netizens.
Have you heard? Many funeral homes have closed down.
[Smearing Master Jiu online for theft, shutting down the business and fourteen days of detention are too lenient punishments.]
Is detention the same as imprisonment?
[No, it shouldn't be on the archives.]
Will my uncle's military service affect my chances of going to jail?
[Pfft, what kind of question is that?]
[Daily digression.]
[The "Zero Yuan Purchase" series has come to an end.]
Yan Jiu was unaware of the online comments; she was waiting in the waiting room scrolling through videos.
Before ticket inspection.
Yan Jiu came across a video of someone eating watermelon.
The video only contains images and text.
The picture shows a watermelon with a thin rind and lots of flesh cut into many small pieces, with a bunch of skewers next to it. The caption is a bit comical: "One skewer per person, do not eat more."
The comments below are also quite interesting.
[Show it in my mouth!]
[The watermelon is a way of saying I'm grateful! I'm going to eat it all!]
It has to be sandy-textured! I don't understand why it has to be crunchy!
I still think crisp melons are the king of melons; I could choke on a mushy one.
The sand is sweeter.
[Long live the crispy doors! ≧▽≦!]
Yan Jiu scrolled through the comments and exited the video.
I don't know if it was because she clicked on Xigua Video, but the videos she saw afterward were all related to watermelons.
Yan Jiu's attention was drawn to a video titled "#People from China Don't Know How to Eat Watermelon Rinds#".
In an instant.
The system panel lights up: [Ding!]
Target of inspection: After the national anthem of R,
Note: Premium customer
Mortality rate: 88%,
Time of death: After the 71st secret rendezvous with his lover.
The host is advised to pay attention immediately!
System: [You cheated on me?]
Yan Jiu clicked on the video with great interest.
The video is a segment of an interview: a singer from country R appears in full regalia under the host's microphone.
The female singer couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh as she looked at the screenshot the host had taken on the internet.
"Only people from China would waste watermelons like this. In our country, eating watermelons like this would be considered crazy."
"It's a little ridiculous that they didn't know watermelon rinds were edible."
"Just like what some Chinese netizens have said, I also seriously doubt whether they really have that many watermelons to eat. I always feel like they are just trying to attract attention."
“In their country, only a few people can afford to eat watermelons, so it’s no wonder they don’t know that the rind is edible.”
That's the end of the video.
The screen was filled with comments.
The coverage was so high that the faces of the female singer and the host could only be seen when the bullet comments were turned off.
[“Ridiculous”, but who is truly laughable?]
Is it illegal to eat the flesh of a watermelon in your country?
I'd rather cut a melon in half and eat it with a spoon than eat the peel.
In China, melon rinds are used as pig feed.
Aren't watermelon rinds used to feed chickens, ducks, and geese?
Who in their right mind would eat a melon rind?
[Tsk, it's really hard for someone from a small island to imagine the vastness and resources of Country Z.]
The video quickly moved to the middle.
The female singer was asked by the host whether she liked to eat watermelon and what methods she used to pickle it.
The female singer was extremely modest: "I only know a dozen or so methods, unlike the people of China, who don't even know that melon rinds can be pickled. Well, let's not make things too difficult for them and learn to be understanding."
The number of comments on the screen increased instantly.
Screw your understanding.
Yes, we don't pickle it; we only eat the flesh.
[Thanks to Grandma Wu, I got to enjoy eating watermelon to my heart's content.]
[Salute!]
[How about this: From now on, everyone can save the watermelon rinds and mail them to Xiao Rizi (a nickname for a child), with postage paid by the recipient.]
I'll go rummage through the trash and collect the watermelon rinds to pickle and export to them.
I've invested in the project upstairs!
At the end of the video, the female singer was asked if she would prepare dinner and fruit for her husband.
“My husband and I have always been very loving. I prepare a change of clothes for him every day, and of course, meals are included.”
Seeing this.
Yan Jiu decisively exited the video and searched for the female singer's online account, following her, leaving a comment, and liking/following her.
[@SlowWalkNoFarewellFuneralServiceV: This doesn't necessarily mean the couple was loving. I suggest making funeral arrangements immediately.]
After posting her comment, she casually swiped away, and five minutes later, her comment had been pushed to the top as usual.
[Master Jiu is a man of few words!]
[Isn't this the R-country singer who said people from Z country can't afford melons?]
[Feel free to laugh; it'll diminish the singer's good karma.]
Hey, you need to explain yourself! Why isn't your country's queen of pop's family life supposed to be loving?
【You idiot! That's all slander!】
【Oh dear, you're angry now.】
We won't argue with you spreading rumors that we can't afford to eat melons, but you get angry when we just tell the truth.
The female singer only realized it belatedly when Yan Jiu added another person to her following list.
Her face was pale and her lips were bloodless.
"what to do!?"
"Is there any way to contact an Onmyoji? Yan Jiu is so evil; only an Onmyoji can ward off evil!"
Knowing that the female singer's marriage was in name only, the assistant said, "Xue Naoko, didn't you tell me your boyfriend was very shrewd? Why don't you contact him first?"
Yukinako frowned.
Her boyfriend is indeed quite shrewd; he's said to be one of the retainers of the Kamo family.
But she hadn't seen her boyfriend for many years, at least ten years if you count carefully.
But being noticed by Yan Jiu was a huge nightmare, and it seemed that the only person she could turn to for help was her boyfriend.
