"Get in there and stay put."
Chen Ge hugged his chicken and cat and crawled into the police car. From the officer's tone, he realized that things had gotten serious.
"Thank God you're fine." There was another person sitting at the back of the police car. He looked nervous, and the voice was familiar.
"Liu Dao? Why are you here? Was it you who called the police? " Chen Ge sat in the police car, and he felt like he had returned home. He was not nervous; in fact, he was sleepy. "Also, why was my livestream banned? What's the highest number of viewers tonight? My number of followers increased by 150,000.
"You still care about the livestream?" Liu Dao grabbed Chen Ge's arm. "Brother, didn't you say the people at the mental hospital are your Haunted House's stuntmen? I even swore to the police that you're pushing me into a fire pit! "
"There are indeed employees from my Haunted House at the mental hospital, but you didn't see them." Chen Ge had a clear conscience. For this livestream, he had brought the Pen Spirit, Xiaoxiao, and the white cat.
"I'm not blaming you, I'm just saying …" Liu Dao said with a bitter expression. "Never mind, this is my fault. Actually, many viewers have been tricked by you."
"What are you talking about? I don't understand. "Chen Ge reached out to pat the white cat's head and was glared at by the white cat.
Liu Dao shrugged. "Under normal circumstances, when a person enters a mental hospital in the middle of the night and sees a victim trapped inside an iron cage and a murderer approaching with an axe, wouldn't their first reaction be fear?"
"Yes, fear is a normal psychological reaction."
"But the problem is, you chased after the murderer with a sledgehammer for more than twenty minutes! No matter who sees it, this looks like a rehearsed sitcom! " Liu Dao was losing control of his emotions. "I've been in the livestream business for four years, and I still can't believe someone would chase after a real murderer like that! Aren't you afraid? Is your brain made of steel? "
"It's not that exaggerated. I'm just doing what's right." Chen Ge emphasized again. "Actually, I am a person with a strong sense of justice. When I saw the victims, I felt that they had suffered too much, so my anger suppressed my fear. That was why I chased after the murderer."
Chen Ge's voice was so loud that the two policemen sitting in front could hear him.
"It's useless to say anything now. I should have called the police earlier." Liu Dao rubbed his temples. "Someone reported you when you started streaming. I thought it was Qin Guang's doing, so I didn't pay much attention to it."
"After that, your popularity rose to more than 400,000, and there were people calling the police in the live broadcast room. I got my people to help you suppress it."
"In the end, your popularity exceeded 600,000 and broke the platform's rookie record. At that time, I already had a very bad feeling. You started yelling at the air and waving your knife with all your might. I thought you were just putting on a show. Plus, I was too greedy, so I forced Sister Li to continue broadcasting. "
"It wasn't until you entered one of the sickrooms and the screen went black that I realized something was wrong and called the police."
There was a trace of relief in his voice. "Never mind, never mind. No matter what, it's good that you're fine."
Liu Dao sighed. He took out a small bottle of medicine from his shirt and popped two pills.
"What's this?"
"Instant Heart Reliever. Don't talk to me for now. This is my first time sitting in a police car, and I want to be alone."
When they arrived at the station, Chen Ge and Liu Dao were locked in different interrogation rooms.
The police started to interrogate them about the process and all the details of the case.
Chen Ge insisted that he had accidentally stumbled into the suspect's scheme, and to protect the victim, he had no choice but to resist.
The whole process was broadcasted, and it would definitely cause a lot of influence.
To the police's consternation, all the information proved that Chen Ge was indeed a victim, but this' victim 'was chasing the murderer all over the place. The whole scene was suffocating.
"Mr. Chen, we need to hold a meeting to discuss your situation." After the interrogation was over, the police did not plan to let him go.
"Okay, but can I borrow your phone? I want to call home to tell my family that I'm safe." Chen Ge actually planned to call Inspector Lee for help. Unlike before, his livestream was no longer limited to a small circle. The number of viewers exceeded 600,000. In other words, this matter was getting out of hand.
"Please wait patiently." The police rejected Chen Ge's request and left the interrogation room.
When the sun rose, he was brought back to the station. It was not until noon that the door to the interrogation room opened again.
The light shone into the room, and Chen Ge, who was sitting obediently in the chair, glanced at the door.
A slightly rotund police officer stood there, and he was wearing a different uniform from the other officers.
"Captain Yan?" Chen Ge was startled. When he helped the police solve the case at Ping An Apartments, it was this officer who had given him the third-class police medal of honor.
"Come with me, someone wants to see you." Unlike the last time, Captain Yan's expression was serious.
Chen Ge stood up silently, and he wondered if he was going to meet someone important.
Walking out of the interrogation room and down the corridor, the two stopped outside the waiting room.
Looking through the glass window, the girl who had been trapped inside the cage had been successfully rescued. She was wearing someone else's uniform and hugging a bottle of water, sitting in the corner.
Her body was shaking, and she did not know how to communicate. She did not even dare to sit on the chair.
Not far away from her stood a middle-aged man. This was the first time that Chen Ge had seen a man break down in tears.
The middle-aged man appeared to be the girl's father. He called the girl's name, but the girl did not respond. There was only fear in her eyes.
"Go in, the father wants to see you."
Pushing open the door, the middle-aged man saw Chen Ge and walked over. He was too emotional to form a complete sentence.
…
About ten minutes later, Captain Yan and Chen Ge walked out from the waiting room.
"Earlier, everyone was talking about you. When they were discussing whether your actions had violated the law, I brought them here to take a look." Captain Yan looked at the father and daughter through the window. "If not for you, this girl would have been trapped inside the cage forever, and the father would have spent the rest of his life searching for his only family."
Chen Ge was feeling quite depressed. Even though the girl had been rescued, the trauma she had suffered would take a long time to heal.
"You've done well this time." Captain Yan looked at Chen Ge. "After our discussion, we've decided to temporarily ban your livestream, but as compensation, we will give you another credit."
Banning the livestream for a while was more of a protection than a punishment. It was to prevent Chen Ge from being manipulated by others when he was at the center of the storm.
With regards to the credit, Chen Ge had no idea what it was, but to be told so seriously by Captain Yan, it had to be a good thing.
"I don't expect any credit, but my sense of justice is too strong. Sometimes, I can't even control myself." Chen Ge was uncertain. His actions last night had been quite rash. He had brought the cleaver and hammer with him, and he had even broken one of the culprits' legs. "Then, I'll leave for real?"
