Chapter 63 Counterattack
After saying that, Nan Ke got into the car, sat down slowly, and looked up to find himself facing the brother and sister in the car.
Tu Yao stared at him blankly.
Nan Ke smiled gently and reached out to tidy up her hair, which had just been ruffled by Tu Chaoxi.
The live stream room has become incredibly lively.
[Wait, what did the arsonist say?]
[Damn, I didn't quite hear that, make him say it again!]
What does it mean that he will be so-and-so's last guest performer?
Wei Tai realized what was happening and immediately tried to chase after them, but it was too late.
The car quickly sped away.
Her heart was pounding, and she felt a sudden, inexplicable panic. She took her son's hand and prepared to get into the limousine, but then another van suddenly stopped in front of her.
The car window rolled down, revealing a young man who had just finished eating a candied apple. He still had half an apple left in his hand and was looking her up and down.
Wei Tai almost lost his composure under that disdainful look. "What are you looking at?!"
Xu Bai shrugged: "I'm looking at the watch on your wrist."
Today, Mrs. Wei was dressed as a wealthy lady, and the imperial green brooch on her chest caught everyone's attention, but a closer look at her watch revealed something else entirely.
She instinctively covered it, then held it up confidently again: "What's wrong with my watch? You people recognize it..."
"If I remember correctly, wasn't this a limited edition of only three pieces worldwide? One of them was in my childhood..."
Xu Bai coughed lightly: "One of the Xu family patriarchs in Hong Kong will be exhibited at the Binjiang Exhibition, and the other one will be auctioned off for charity next month by Madam Jiang in Yanjing to accumulate merit for her deceased daughter, so..."
He paused deliberately: "Where did you get this?"
"you……"
Wei Tai's face flushed red instantly: "You...who are you?!"
Isn't this person with that poor brother and sister pair from earlier?
How could you know so much?
The Wei family has recently fallen on hard times. A single comment from the Xu family about their poor character caused them to lose their backing. In an attempt to salvage the situation, her husband sent her and their son to this run-down place to do charity work and build a reputation.
However, she offended many people in the past, which has led to most people in Yanjing now watching her make a fool of herself.
Taking advantage of the fact that the watch's release information was not publicly available, she specially commissioned someone to spend several million to replicate the watch, just to maintain her image in front of everyone.
Xu Bai: "What do you care who I am?"
After saying that, he rolled up the car window.
Back in Crane Village, the barrage of comments was already dazzling.
Netizens have already figured out who Cormier is and the controversy surrounding the guest performer.
Nan Ke only brought one bag with him when he came here. He went back to his room, took out the bag, and under everyone's gaze, took out a stack of documents inside.
And then, her gentle eyes and brows remained unchanged.
"First of all, I apologize to my tutor. I will compensate for all the losses incurred in the practice room. But regarding the plagiarism accusation, I reiterate once again, I do not accept it."
"I will then publish all the evidence I have on my personal account, one by one, along with all my sources of inspiration."
"Finally, I will be attending Mr. Cormier's online interview at 7 p.m. sharp."
[...Why do I suddenly feel so fired up?]
[I just arrived. Wasn't Arsonist Bro always half-dead? How did he suddenly become so energetic?]
[Go watch the replay. The process is a bit complicated, but if I'm not mistaken, if I haven't misunderstood... he was probably doing it to get revenge for his sister.]
Nan Ke looked at Xu Bai beside her.
"Could I borrow your helicopter to airlift my piano and violin over?"
When Xu Bai's name was called, he was startled and subconsciously looked at Xu Chi.
Xu Chi was carrying him on his back, making tea for Tu Yao.
His good friend has a good older brother and a bad second brother. The bad thing is that the second brother is a madman who can go crazy at any moment.
But the good thing is that once he accepts this younger sister, he will only go crazy for her, and he will go crazy in a dignified way.
However, it was clear that his good friend was struggling to cope.
Across from her, Tu Yao held a teacup, glancing at Nan Ke several times, sometimes frowning, sometimes relaxing, sometimes burying her head, but her restless toes kept tapping the ground triumphantly.
Xu Chi watched all this without showing any emotion. He couldn't handle it, but he was still happy nonetheless.
As long as you're happy.
Tu Yao took a sip of tea, and while she was happy, she didn't forget to tell Xu Chi, "Xiao Chi, we'll be busy until very late today, so you should get some rest and not stay up late."
"Don't drink too much tea either."
After saying that, he confiscated his teacup.
Xu Chi smiled, his eyes revealing a clear hint of indulgence.
"good."
Xu Bai felt that the word "good" had a double meaning.
So he immediately nodded: "Okay!"
The helicopter took off quickly and successfully brought back the two musical instruments by evening.
Nan Ke spent the entire afternoon systematically categorizing, photographing, uploading, and summarizing the existing evidence.
Then he locked himself in his room and practiced tuning and testing the sound without stopping for a moment.
...
In the music room of Yenching Conservatory of Music, a group of students gathered together, looking through Nan Ke's manuscript on the screen.
"The notes in the manuscript indicate that his inspiration and train of thought flowed smoothly. Have we really wronged him?"
"And he has an interview with Mr. Cormier at 7 p.m.... The teacher said Mr. Cormier really admires him, what if it really is..."
"But Qin Jie can't wrongly accuse him, can he?"
Qin Jie, the roommate who reported Nan Ke for plagiarism, was standing at the door listening when a look of panic flashed in his eyes. He turned and hurriedly left.
He walked to a secluded corner and dialed a number that had called him not long ago.
Two weeks ago, the owner of the number contacted him and asked as soon as he opened his mouth, "Are you really willing to be overshadowed by Nan Ke for the rest of your life?"
It almost instantly ignited the jealousy he had hidden for four whole years.
He and Nan Ke consistently won first and second place in various competitions.
But in almost every competition, Nan Ke outshone him. Nan Ke was hailed as a gentle and talented school heartthrob, while he was always the perennial runner-up, ignored by everyone.
So when the other side asked him if he was willing to retaliate once, he agreed almost without hesitation.
Nan Ke's behavior surprised him even more. He lost his temper and set fire to the music room, tearing away his gentle facade and becoming known as a madman.
He believed that a madman would never have another chance to turn things around.
But who knew...
He absolutely cannot allow Nan Ke to have a chance to make a comeback!
We absolutely cannot let him participate in this interview!
The call was answered quickly.
Ten minutes later, Qin Jie hung up the call, as if someone had shown him the right path, and walked out of the corner with his head held high and chest out.
It was 6:30 p.m., half an hour before Cormier's online interview.
In Crane Village, Nan Ke had changed into a tuxedo, and her slightly curly hair was tied into a small braid.
Tu Yao couldn't resist and stood on tiptoe to touch it.
Seeing him turn around, Tu Yao quickly withdrew her hand and chuckled.
Nan Ke smiled, then lowered his head and said softly, "Touch me."
Tu Yao blinked and touched it twice more.
Nan Ke subconsciously glanced around and saw Tu Yao, Tu Chaoxi, Jiang Ye, Wen Yu, Xu Bai, Ma Zhiyuan, and the program crew members all standing behind him.
With everything prepared, he started his live stream, submitted his interview application, and received the eleventh ranking.
But just then, Jiang Ye suddenly frowned.
"...Junior brother, Qin Jie is now live streaming."
Tu Yao was taken aback and quickly leaned over to take a look.
On the screen, a bespectacled young man said solemnly, "I do not accept their sophistry."
"Since he has released his so-called evidence, I will also release my manuscript."
He showed each item to the camera one by one.
There were two full stacks of manuscripts, twice as many as Nan Ke's, which he showed them one by one.
It immediately intimidated a lot of netizens.
[This is way too much! Almost every melody has been revised seven or eight times; the level of detail is terrifying.]
However, Nan Ke's inspiration analysis went smoothly.
Although I don't understand music, if you give me a masterpiece, I can analyze a lot of things. For a music student like him, adding inspiration is just like doing a reading comprehension exercise.
That seems to make sense...
After the presentation, he requested a live video call, saying, "I'm really looking forward to facing off against Nan Ke."
...
At this point, there were still fifteen minutes left before the online interview.
Sure enough, Nan Ke's live stream kept getting requests to connect with other streamers.
Nan Ke's eyes were cold, and his fingertips twitched.
Tu Chaoxi immediately said irritably, "Don't answer it. We'll talk about everything after your interview!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, a large number of online trolls flooded the live stream, and hundreds or even thousands of sarcastic comments were instantly thrown at him!
What, you're afraid to confront me face-to-face?
[You must be terrified by the sheer number of manuscripts on the other side.]
Almost instantly, everyone understood why Qin Jie had started a live stream and connected with Nan Ke at this time.
If you do that, you'll inevitably miss the interview.
If you don't respond, use a large number of online trolls to disrupt Nan Ke's mentality, affect his subsequent performance, and make him appear guilty.
Xu Bai was so angry that he jumped up and down, took out his phone and said, "I have money, I'll hire an online army to retaliate right now!"
Jiang Ye and Wen Yu were so angry that their faces darkened, and they created several alternate accounts to retaliate with insults.
Even Ma Zhiyuan couldn't help but mutter, "...He's the kind of villain we should be talking about."
Tu Yao remained silent, lost in thought. After a while, she suddenly clicked on the replay, played it for two seconds, paused, resumed playback, and paused again…
Xu Bai glanced at it: "No, big sister, are you sending a telegram?"
Tu Yao ignored him, and the next second, she suddenly stepped past Nan Ke and approached the screen, unexpectedly reaching out her finger to tap "agree".
After the connection was established, before the other party could even react, a crisp voice rang out simultaneously in both live stream rooms:
"But wasn't your manuscript a temporary forgery?"
"And it must have been forged by several people."
Everyone: ? ? ? ? ? !
