Chapter 28: Chapter 28 Touching The Bottom Line Of Human Morality
The livestream chat went silent.
Did this revelation have to be this explosive?
The content of Chen Yu's narration earlier had nothing to do with psychopath tendencies.
Good heavens, Chen Yu dropped a bomb just one sentence later.
"This isn't a claim he could make lightly."
"Dr. Chen, be careful with your words, or [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] will sue you for slander."
"Dr. Chen got a new script. It's time for another act."
The livestream chat got lively again.
Except for a few netizens hyping up the chat, the remaining 90% didn't believe it.
They didn't believe that [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] would do such a thing.
Murdering a human was not like slaughtering chickens.
This was something that touched the bottom line of human morality.
[Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter]'s brows furrowed, and he quickly relaxed.
"Thank you all for your trust in me."
"As the saying goes, the clean will be clean, and the dirty will be dirty. I didn't do it, so it's useless no matter how much dirt you splash on me."
[Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] warned Chen Yu to stop spouting nonsense, or he would have to bear legal responsibility.
"Whether I'm spouting nonsense or not, just continue listening."
Chen Yu smiled coldly.
"The customer was a rich man. After drinking too much, he said he would give you 500 yuan if you barked like a dog."
"You took his money and barked."
"Three days later, you climb into his house through his window and stab him to death."
"You took the remaining 3000 yuan from his body."
"This is your first time murdering someone, but you were calm. You didn't get even the slightest bit of nervousness."
"You look at his corpse like you're looking at an everyday object."
"A few minutes later, you went to the toilet and carefully washed the blood off your body and knife."
"After leaving his house, you threw the knife into the river and went to a shop to buy a new set of clothes."
The hundreds of thousands of viewers had their emotions stirred.
If Chen Yu wasn't making up this story...
It meant [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] was a natural-born killer.
Even when it was his first time murdering someone, he did it without emotion and calmly disposed of his weapon.
What the fuck?
Was [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] the reincarnation of a bandit from the olden days?
Did he retain his previous memory and inherit his brutality?
"No wonder Huyu wanted you to be their tool. You do have talent in storytelling."
[Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] mocked Chen Yu.
"Unfortunately, your script is full of loopholes."
"Would there be such a person that could maintain their calmness even after murdering someone for the first time?"
"I can't believe you've ditched basic logic to exaggerate your story."
"The brain cells of your team are about to be used up, right?"
[Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] didn't wait for the netizens to ask his questions and quickly mentioned that he had indeed worked in those jobs.
He had indeed been humiliated.
But at that time, he needed the money to treat his mother's illness.
He didn't have the luxury of caring about his personal dignity.
"I'll tell everyone a story that happened to me, and you'll know how cowardly I am."
More than 20 years ago, [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] went to a disco with his friends.
His friend got into a fight with some hooligans over there.
[Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] went over to mediate the fight, but unfortunately, he was stabbed by one of the hooligans.
The hooligan was caught, and [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] was worried that his accomplices would retaliate.
He took the initiative to choose forgiveness and didn't even dare ask for compensation.
After explaining the embarrassing incident from back then, [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] once again looked at Chen Yu.
"Chen Yu, don't you know my life like the back of your hand? Don't tell me you don't know about this?"
"I do know."
Chen Yu nodded.
"Did everyone hear that?"
"I don't even dare go up against some hooligans, so how could I have the guts to harm a human being?" said [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter].
"That sounds reasonable."
"I remember there is a saying that goes, Once a coward gets angry, even the heavens will cower."
"That's all nonsense. I don't believe it anyway."
The viewers were still skeptical of Chen Yu's story, particularly about [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] being capable of reaching the bottom line of morality.
"The conflict in the disco is exactly as you mentioned," Chen Yu continued.
"However, there is one detail that you didn't mention."
"You were worried that the anesthetic would impair your brain, so you chose not to administer the anesthetic and received 26 stitches."
The netizens gasped.
What endurance was this?
They wouldn't be able to take even two stitches, let alone 26.
Under these circumstances, people with such great perseverance could achieve great things.
"The second victim is the security captain."
"Unlike other murderers, you didn't choose to touch the security captain. Instead, you murdered his beloved wife."
"Because you know that murdering his wife is more interesting."
"After murdering twice in a row, you've indulged in the morbid pleasure of controlling other people's lives."
Chen Yu read a few comments, noticing that the netizens were curious about how [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] escaped punishment.
Chen Yu's words were convincing, even without concrete evidence.
It also made the netizens ponder deeply.
"How did he escape punishment? We have to route back to his work experience."
"He read a lot of books while working in the library."
"A wide variety of books on criminal investigations, as well as domestic and international detective and murder mystery novels."
"Unknowingly, you have gained a lot of criminal and counter-reconnaissance experience."
Chen Yu's words were like a heavy fist smashing into [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter].
A few beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Even someone with a personality as cold as his was a little flustered at that moment.
Chen Yu's other revelations could be investigated, but to the extent of knowing what kind of books he had read?
This was something that only he knew.
"Murdering not only gives you the pleasure of controlling their fate but also gives you a sense of superiority in terms of intelligence."
Hearing this, the hands of [Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] began to tremble.
"Chen Yu, I've already recorded all your slanders. I'll sue you for slander right now!"
[Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] stood up to get his coat.
It was as if he were really going out to report this to the police.
"After all these years, you still like to wear dark purple clothes, huh?"
"It's to reminisce about the past when you're bored, right?"
[Hangzhou City's Number One Entertainment Reporter] instantly froze in place.
"Starting from the third time you committed your crimes, you always wore dark purple clothes."
"You've experimented and discovered that blood splatters were least obvious on dark purple clothes."
"In five years, you committed sixteen crimes."
"20 years ago, surveillance cameras weren't everywhere. So, the relevant departments in your hometown took great measures in order to solve this case."
"They spent one-fifth of that year's financial revenue to install tens of thousands of cameras."
"Over the next few years, surveillance cameras were populated everywhere."
"You know that the days of killing innocents are over."
"You spent the following few years as an ordinary person, but you always found it difficult to control the urge to manipulate other people's fates."
"Later on, you discovered that there was another way to control one's fate. It was to dig up celebrity scandals."
"It was technically another way to make them disappear from this society."
"With the investigative and anti-reconnaissance experience you have developed over the past five years, you became a paparazzi."
While Chen Yu was narrating, a special comment flashed past.
"I know who he is!"
