While Bo Jiu had been speaking, Hoshino had already turned on the laptop screen.
As soon as he said the word "good", his fingers, which were tapping on the keyboard, suddenly stopped.
"Z, this isn't that simple. I agree with you, she didn't commit suicide but there's a video that isn't good for her. The video shows that she has a mental problem."
Bo Jiu walked further away. "What video?"
"I'll send it to you." As Hoshino spoke, he glanced at the comment below and added, "Do you have something in your hands now?"
"Mmh," Bo Jiu replied. "The recording of the perpetrator."
"Don't send it." Hoshino's voice softened.
Bo Jiu frowned. "What did you find out?"
"The perpetrator wants everyone to think that it was a suicide because the author couldn't stand the copyright infringement and chose to end her life in such a manner." Hoshino placed the mouse down and glanced up. "The perpetrator recorded her actions before her death. Their motive is clear. If you send the evidence, the perpetrator will escape. If you don't send the evidence, she will still be in pain until her death because the person who destroyed her faith and stole from her is still on the loose."
Hoshino glanced at the drifting clouds outside the window. "Someone just wants to shut your mouth. Z, what are you going to do?"
"I won't let either of them off."
In that instant, Bo Jiu's gaze was dark and extremely cold.
Hoshino chuckled and reached out to tap the mouse. "Alright, there's a problem with the video. It isn't because of the production but because of the unusual reaction of the victim. Someone said that her reaction proved that she had lost her mind. After entering the elevator, she pressed the floor she was on. Then, she suddenly changed and pressed the number 2. She peeked out and glanced out of the elevator with wariness in her eyes. She did this twice as though she was checking for safety. After that, she returned to the elevator and disappeared from the surveillance. When she reappeared, she was sitting in front of her computer. After reading the comments that supported the perpetrator, she hugged herself in depression. Then, she seemed to really want to commit suicide. She picked up a bottle of medicine and drank at least five pills with her back facing the computer. Finally, she looked into the camera with a pained expression. The video ended at this point. There's one thing worth noting. No one would call their mother before committing suicide. But this person did. Even though she didn't speak much and wasn't in a good mood, it didn't seem like something a suicidal person would do. Of course, she could have been forcing herself. Then, she fell asleep and slept until the video was released and the corpse was discovered."
Bo Jiu's eyes dimmed. "You're saying that the video was released before the corpse was discovered."
"Yes." Hoshino hit the enter key. "She first posted a message on the internet and then started the live broadcast. When the police found her, it was already too late. Hence, to prove that she didn't commit suicide, we have to solve this mystery. Since she didn't commit suicide, why was there a live broadcast? "
With that, Hoshino stood up. "We need that person to explain. She has to analyze the victim's actions and find a logical explanation."
Bo Jiu glanced up.
Hoshino walked to the window and said the name that both of them thought of. "Qin Mo."
After Hoshino finished speaking, Bo Jiu paused.
Bo Jiu paused for a moment, not because of anything else, but because of the tall figure that appeared in front of her.
The man was wearing a black trench coat with a white shirt underneath. His slender fingers held a slender cigarette as he looked at her. This kind of attire only made him look more elegant and handsome.
The Almighty … Bo Jiu's eyes lit up.
Qin Mo walked over, reaching out to pat her head. "Who are you calling?"
He probably hadn't heard the contents of her conversation.
"A friend," Bo Jiu replied as she listened to the busy tone. Hoshino hung up just in time.
Qin Mo glanced at the youngster's hand. It was an anonymous number.
Bo Jiu didn't want the Almighty to be interested in her conversation, hence, she went straight to the point. "Brother Mo, I have a video for you to watch."
With that, she tapped on her phone. When she searched, she realized that the video had been blocked.
It was a normal measure to maintain order.
Such a video wasn't suitable to stay online for long …
"If you're referring to the video regarding the online writer, I've seen it." Qin Mo lifted her chin, his deep gaze looking into her eyes. "Tell me your suspicions."
Bo Jiu replied softly, "I don't think she committed suicide, but there are many things that I can't understand."
"Let's go take a look at the scene." Qin Mo didn't deny her words.
Bo Jiu nodded, leaving the Almighty to wait. She walked over to speak to Sister Turtle before returning to Qin Mo's side. "Let's go."
Qin Mo glanced at her. "It seems like you already knew about it. Why didn't you call me?"
It wasn't an easy question for Bo Jiu to answer.
Qin Mo didn't continue asking because three people were walking over from the side.
Bo Jiu recognized one of them. It was Li Xue, the one who had infringed on her copyright.
With such a huge incident, the police would definitely ask her to come over to give a statement.
But before they reached the station, Li Xue couldn't help but complain. "What is going on? She has a fragile heart and yet, she wants me to suffer as well."
The policeman wasn't a hot-blooded person. He couldn't take it anymore and turned to glance at her. "You had a conflict online and you infringed on her copyright. She isn't fragile, right?"
"Uncle, don't spout nonsense." Li Xue raised her eyebrows. "All I did was create a fan group and write some fanfiction. I used to like her book quite a lot. She, as an author, has wronged me like this. I haven't even had the chance to complain about it. It's as if she's the only one who's wronged. But after the incident last time, I've already given up on the book.
The person beside Li Xue laughed. "Sir, we are here to solve the problem. It isn't good to be so harsh. There are many plots in this industry. It's just a joke, it isn't an infringement. As for my client's fan group, it isn't against the law, right? At the end of the day, the victim's mental fortitude was too weak. She should have gone to see a doctor if she had mental problems. Why did she end up losing her life? "
"That's right." Li Xue wasn't wrong. The book she had imitated was selling well. It wouldn't be long before it would be released into a movie. She wasn't happy about this. "Her fans are brainless. They keep finding trouble with me. I wasn't the one who asked her to die. You police should take care of them and stop them from slandering me …"
Bo Jiu clenched her fists as she listened to them. She clenched her fists until her palms were red. Only then could she control the violence in her heart.
The evidence in her hands was enough to make this person pay the price.
But now wasn't the time.
Because she knew very well what kind of comments there were on the internet.
The victim was dead.
The people were still talking.
"She really has a weak mental fortitude."
"It's better for someone with a fragile heart to stop writing novels."
"I saw Li Xue's novel. It's good. Even though it looks similar, aren't all plots like this?"
"I was going to get her to apologize to Great Master Li Xue. She's so annoying. Now, she's finally quiet. I've seen the video. She's just a mentally ill person. Normal people wouldn't behave like her."
Bo Jiu had always believed that the dead were the most important, especially those who had died unfairly.
But it was obvious that some people didn't think the same.
That person was no longer around.
The comments that left her with cuts and bruises wouldn't stop.
Hence, he couldn't allow her to leave with such an ambiguous ending.
Bo Jiu was probably clenching her fists too tightly.
Qin Mo's hand landed on her wrist. He pulled her up, his voice calm. "Open up."
Bo Jiu paused, looking at the Almighty.
Qin Mo seemed to be at his wit's end. He suddenly leaned forward, planting a kiss on her fist.
This time, Bo Jiu opened up. It was a natural reaction. She hadn't expected such a move from the Almighty.
Qin Mo watched the red marks on her palm. His eyes dimmed. "I didn't know you had such masochistic tendencies."
"I just used a little more force." Bo Jiu was embarrassed. She found an excuse. "I'm probably too good at fighting and can't control my strength."
"Do you know that person?" Qin Mo tapped the youngster's palm.
Bo Jiu shrunk in pain. "Which one?"
"The one who spoke." Qin Mo held the youngster's hand, holding it in his hand.
Bo Jiu reluctantly allowed herself to be held by the Almighty. "Mmh."
She didn't speak much. It wasn't like her usual self.
Qin Mo glanced over, combining what he had heard and his understanding of a certain someone. "You have evidence of this person."
It wasn't a question. Bo Jiu paused before asking, "How did you know?"
"I can tell." Qin Mo glanced at her, his gaze unwavering as he walked forward. "Why didn't you post it?"
Bo Jiu puffed up her cheeks. "I can't post it."
"Seems like you're abiding by the law now." Qin Mo couldn't help pinching the youngster.
Bo Jiu was dumbfounded.
"Don't worry." Qin Mo's gaze deepened. "I'll let you post it. Anyone who does it will receive the punishment they deserve."
Bo Jiu had always known that the Almighty was different.
Regardless of how things changed around him.
He was like the brightest star in the sky, untainted by any dust.
Qin Mo paused in front of the Hummer. "Shouldn't you do something to make me happy?"
Bo Jiu understood. She smiled devilishly and leaned forward, wanting to kiss the Almighty.
Unexpectedly, the Almighty pressed her head down, his brows slightly furrowed. "You want to kiss me?"
What else? Bo Jiu arched a brow.
"Present," Qin Mo reminded her faintly.
So that was the reason. How awkward, she thought the Almighty wanted her to kiss him.
"If you really want to kiss me, you can kiss me too." Qin Mo lifted his lips into a smile. It was obvious that he knew what she was thinking.
This time, Bo Jiu didn't fall for the trap. She reached into her pocket and took out a USB.
That USB flash drive was obviously not an ordinary USB flash drive.
It wasn't just the material but also the appearance. The word 'Nine' was engraved on the silver surface. Pushing it to the side, it was an electronic cigarette lighter.
This wasn't the only USB Bo Jiu had given him.
In fact, as early as when she was young, the night before she left with her father, she had placed a USB drive like this on his cabinet.
Now that she thought about it, the Almighty probably hadn't discovered it.
Or perhaps he had, but he had forgotten about it.
"Is it for me?" Qin Mo asked.
"Mmh." Bo Jiu wanted to tell him how to use it.
Qin Mo moved his hand to the side. "Why? Do you want it back after giving me a present? "
"No," Bo Jiu replied. "Other than the cigarette lighter, there's a second present inside. You can read it by inserting it into the laptop."
Qin Mo smiled. It was a rare smile.
It was like the sunlight shining through a bottle of mineral water.
It was clean and beautiful.
Bo Jiu watched his smile, her heart skipping a beat.
Hence, when Qin Mo kissed her, her fingers didn't react.
It was a light kiss, as though he was eating a mint candy, slightly cold and sweet.
She finally understood how those overbearing CEOs felt when they bought things for their mistresses.
A thousand dollars for a beauty's smile. That was probably it.
But ever since they had boarded the car, the Almighty hadn't glanced at her. One of his hands was holding hers while the other was playing with the USB lighter.
He must be in a good mood.
Bo Jiu's good mood was contagious, the viciousness in her chest dissipating.
When the Hummer stopped in a small area, the Almighty held her hand and entered the elevator, pressing the floor of the deceased.
But very quickly, he pressed the number 2 and walked out of the elevator. He glanced left and right before walking back.
Bo Jiu glanced up. The Almighty was recreating the scene himself!
Qin Mo watched her, his voice calm. "Many people think that her actions are a reflection of her mental state."
"Actually, that isn't the case." Bo Jiu finished his sentence.
Qin Mo pressed the button to close the elevator four times. "What do you think is wrong with my actions?"
"Panic." Bo Jiu paused. "She's afraid." A normal person wouldn't press the elevator button in such a manner.
Qin Mo watched as the elevator doors opened and walked out. "That's right, she was afraid. When she entered the elevator, she pressed the number '2' so quickly, which means she sensed danger. The only explanation I can think of is that she suspected someone was following her. That's why she acted that way."
"But there wasn't anyone else in the video."
