What?
"Is the anchor crazy? There's clearly something wrong here. The young lady might never come back."
"Where is your conscience, host? You really disappoint me. I originally thought you were a good person, but I didn't expect you to be so cruel just to win the game."
'Unfollow me, I'm going to call the police to save people!'
…
For a time, the barrage of comments collectively condemned her decision, and the number of followers on her account also dropped rapidly, losing 100,000 followers in just over ten seconds.
But Ye Lan still didn't look at these, just played with his mobile phone, and seemed not to care about the life or death of Meng Yao on the other end.
In the pitch-black scene, Meng Yao's voice was already trembling and revealed his uneasiness.
"It's a bit dark here, and I can't see the styles clearly, so I'm not really interested in buying."
After he finished speaking, the man took down a skirt from the clothesline and said, "I think this one looks good. You can try it on."
Meng Yao looked at the old, middle-aged style clothes in her hand and felt very resistant. However, Ye Lan's next instructions did not come from the headset for a long time. She could only suppress her fear and slowly walk towards the innermost fitting room.
It’s called a fitting room, but it’s actually just a small compartment surrounded by two pieces of plastic cloth. Occasionally, when the light from the alley shines in, you can see the silhouette on the cloth.
This made Meng Yao feel very insecure, so after entering the cubicle, she immediately pressed the headset and tried to contact Ye Lan.
"Master, are you still there? I..."
Crash.
As soon as she opened her mouth to speak, the plastic sheet facing the alley was suddenly lifted up, and several pairs of large hands reached in at the same time, scaring her so much that she subconsciously wanted to scream.
“Ah!”
However, the other person's movements were well-trained, as if he had done it many times before. He stepped forward and covered her mouth with a towel.
Two other people rushed in, one in front and one behind, picked her up, and ran towards the alley entrance in the night without saying a word.
Click.
Amidst the noise in the live broadcast room, there was a sound of something heavy falling. It seemed that the other party had dropped his phone on the ground during the struggle, and the headset was also lost.
"Fuck, she's been kidnapped, right? Call the police!"
"Didn't the anchor say there would be a solution? Now that something has happened, where is your solution?"
"Why are you still fiddling with your crappy phone? Are you deaf? Someone's in trouble!"
…
Even though they couldn't see the picture clearly, the audience had already guessed what happened. They were terrified and even more angry at Ye Lan's unresponsive attitude.
Luosha, who was watching the livestream from the other side, couldn't help but sneer and say, "I said this situation is unsolvable, but I probably can't be as cold-blooded and ruthless as the master. At least I would call the police or let her go to the police station to hide."
It's better than being forcibly abducted in a live broadcast room with more than one million people and feeling desperate.
However, facing the double attack from barrage and Luosha, Ye Lan did not even raise his head, nor did he hang up the audience connection function.
For a long while, there was silence in the dark screen over there.
Until a certain point, there was the sound of approaching footsteps, followed by the familiar gentle voice of a man.
"Hey, how's it going? Did you get the people in the car? Hmm...that's good. If you guys leave the night market area and head to the main road, I'll start getting ready...Okay, remember to transfer the money to my account."
After a brief exchange, the man hung up the phone.
At this time, the audience had already caught the clues and vaguely guessed the cause and effect, but more than ten seconds later, they still got goose bumps when the man shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Yaoyao! Yaoyao, why are you missing? Someone, help! My girlfriend is missing!"
The voices in the background gradually became louder. The man was screaming at the top of his lungs and crying heart-wrenchingly, as if his loved one had died.
But the audience who had witnessed how he calmly finished a phone call and then burst into acting after more than ten seconds only felt a chill to the bone.
'No, don't believe him, he is the murderer!'
"Why do people all sympathize with him? He's so hateful. It's obvious that he planned everything."
"Wuwuwu, what should I do? What should I do, little sister?"
...The live broadcast room was instantly filled with hatred and sadness. Thinking of Meng Yao, whose whereabouts were unknown and who was sold to who knows where, while the real murderer was at large pretending to be the victim's relative, this atrocity made people despair and powerless.
Because even if they witnessed the whole process, they would have no way to do anything.
It can neither save people nor punish bad people.
At this time, Luosha in another live broadcast room wanted to laugh with a cold heart. After all, he won.
Just as he was about to initiate a request and ask the other party to open the microphone and admit defeat, he suddenly saw the girl pick up her phone and said to the other party, "Do it."
Um?
Luosha paused, frowning in confusion.
The audience also didn't understand what she was doing.
A minute later, the phone rang. Ye Lan answered it and turned on the hands-free mode.
"Wuwuwu... Y-Is it Master?"
A girl's choked sobbing voice came from the other end of the microphone, and the voice was clearly Meng Yao who had just been captured.
"Yeah." Ye Lan replied calmly and asked, "Are you injured?"
"No, no..." Meng Yao heard the familiar cold voice and finally couldn't hold back her emotions. She hugged the phone and burst into tears, "Thank you, Master, for not giving up on me... and for sending people to rescue me. Otherwise, I don't know where I would be captured today, wuwuwu..."
She cried breathlessly, much more vividly than the man's acting just now. The audience was moved and their eyes were wet, and they sent their blessings on the barrage.
Ye Lan didn't reveal too much information, just told her to rest for a while and someone would take her home later.
"But... I don't dare to go back, Master. What if he comes to find me again?" Meng Yao is like a frightened bird now. Not to mention going back to her residence, she doesn't even dare to be alone.
"It's okay." Ye Lan glanced at the latest news on the screen and gave a definite answer, "Your boyfriend has been arrested."
What?
Meng Yao and everyone in the live broadcast room were stunned when they heard this, "Really?"
"Well, you'll see him later when you go to the police station to give your statement. I've already sent the evidence, and he can't get away." Ye Lan briefly recounted the conversation that had just been recorded in the live broadcast room.
"That's great. I was worried that he would haunt me. Thank you, thank you, Master." Meng Yao was ecstatic and grateful to Ye Lan. She felt that the scare was worth it.
But before she could finish her joy, she heard Ye Lan's cold and clear voice coming from the opposite side again.
"But your parents will stop you from filing a lawsuit after hearing the news. If you compromise, he will get away with it."
"What..." Meng Yao froze in place, holding the phone. After a long while, she replied in a hoarse voice, "Okay, I understand. Let me handle it myself from now on. Thank you, Master."
Ye Lan nodded slightly and didn't ask any more questions.
After the call ended, everyone in the live broadcast room fell silent, and there were only a few scattered comments. It was obvious that everyone was in a bad mood.
