The spokesperson for the police department did not immediately answer the journalists’ questions, but simply gestured for quiet on the scene. he then turned sideways and asked Ye Shiting, “Mr. Ye, does your bodyguard Zhang Yuanfan smoke?”
Thinking of his bodyguard Zhang Yuanfan who had been with him for many years, Ye Shiting shook his head and said, “He has asthma, he doesn’t smoke.”
A journalist vehemently responded, “Mr. Ye, you’re blatantly lying. The video clearly shows that your bodyguard not only smokes, but also smoked at the gas station. Despite being dissuaded by the staff there, he still tossed a cigarette on the ground, causing the gas station to explode!”
Ye Shiting scoffed, looked up, with a cold gaze on the journalist, “I’m curious, what kind of gas station employee can have a laugh with Zhang Yuanfan, knowing that he smokes?”
“This…”
The reporter was taken aback and didn’t know how to respond, so he continued to counter-question, “Then please explain, what’s the deal with the cigarette in his hand?”
Ye Shiting nodded lightly and said to the police spokesperson, “I suggest this question be answered by Zhang’s personal doctor.”
The spokesperson for the police department nodded and called the treating doctor, who had been summoned to the scene, onto the stage.
The treating doctor, a middle-aged man in glasses, took out a box of cigarettes and handed it to the police spokesperson, saying, “This is a medicinal cigarette that can be bought at any major pharmacy. It’s specially designed to treat asthma. It looks just like a regular cigarette, but it’s actually medicine and it can’t be lit. Even if it’s thrown on the ground of a gas station, it won’t cause a fire.”
“Medicine?”
The doctor’s words were like a shock bomb, instantly dumbfounding the audience as well as those watching the live stream on the internet.
Similar comments started to appear on the live streaming platforms.
“I know this medicine. It’s not only used to treat asthma, but also pneumonia and other diseases. I’ve always had a smoking addiction, but recently my doctor said I can’t smoke. I can’t control it, so my doctor recommended this medicine to me. It indeed cannot be lit.”
“Wow, I have this medicine at home. It’s great for someone with a smoking addiction like me. My wife bought it for me. You suck the medicine into your mouth just like smoking. I like to hold it in my mouth to look cool.”
“…..”
At the press conference, the treating doctor continued, “Zhang Yuanfan has a chronic asthma condition. I always suggest he carry this medicinal cigarette with him because it’s convenient and beneficial for him. From the surveillance video, I can confirm that he was taking the medicinal cigarette at the time. That’s why after showing it to the staff, they did not stop him. He probably finished the medicine and casually threw it on the ground, although this behavior of littering is uncivilized.”
The spokesperson for the police department nodded, then stood in front of the microphone and said, “I believe everyone now knows that Mr. Ye was not the instigator of the explosion.”
A journalist was displeased, “But you initially said that the cause of the explosion was due to a cigarette. Isn’t this shooting yourself in the foot?”
The police department’s spokesperson nodded, “This question from the journalist is exactly what I wanted to address. So, the question arises – why did I initially say that the explosion was caused by a cigarette? Or specifically, the cigarette dropped by Mr. Ye’s bodyguard, Zhang Yuanfan?”
“Oh hell,” a journalist thought, “how are we supposed to know?”
