Chapter 148: Suspects

At the thought of this, Mo Li’s heart raced.

Mo Li knew that like any other industry, the entertainment industry had its dark sides, she just never thought she’d be caught in the middle of one due to her connection to Nie Lie. Mo Li couldn’t tell where she stood before she knew for certain what Nie Li’s involvement in the case was.

Qin Xuan scolded as he scrolled through the comments on Zhuang Xin’s articles, “These people are too much, do they realize they’re talking about another human being?! Are they all animals? How could they make such horrible remarks about a dead person?” Qin Xuan didn’t know much about the entertainment industry, but he couldn’t stand these people who have such little respect for life. To take Zhuang Xin’s death as a way to relieve their boredom, these people were real scums!

“This is nothing. You haven’t seen the livestream from the second victim. Those who urged her to jump, those are the real devils on earth.” Ah Si growled.

Then it hit Mo Li. She turned to Ah Si. “Someone was livestreaming on the day of Jiang Li’s death, right?”

Ah Si nodded. “Yes, but to the uniqueness of the situation, all the videos have been sealed. But…” Ah Si then pulled out a video for Mo Li. Quan Yu must have kept one for the case.

“Come, come, come, this is a livestream for a suicide, I’m sure you haven’t seen one before! My dear fans, if you want a closer view, remember to donate some gifts!”

“I will be at the front row when she jumps.”

“Why is this taking so long? Hey, you up there! If you want to die, then move it along! Jump already!”

Mo Li scanned the crowd. All of them had cheeky smiles on their faces. Some of them hollered and screamed like they were at a concert. The others didn’t join in the hubbub but the excitement for the macabre was glowing in their eyes. In the background, other pedestrians walked by with unaffected expression.

“Where was this taken?” Mo Li frowned as she asked.

Ah Si answered, “It’s at Central City: Hong Yuan Jing Ye at Pearl River. Is there a problem?”

Mo Li turned to ask Quan Yu, “What role does this Jiang Li play in your operation?”

“She was an information.” Quan Yu answered but didn’t elaborate. It was not that he didn’t want to but he couldn’t to protect Mo Li. Mo Li was an understanding person, she didn’t press.

Mo Li waved for Qin Xuan to join her and she asked, “Look at the video, who made you the angriest?”

Qin Xuan huffed with fury. “There are two. The first is that person who urged the victim to hurry up and jump. The second is the person who took this livestream. To think about livestreaming a person’s last moment in life, they can’t be a good person.”

“Do you think there’s a connection between the first person mentioned by Qin Xuan and this poster?” Mo Li switched back to the article on Zhuang Xin.

Quan Yu then noticed there was a person who had been leaving radical messages on Zhuang Xin’s article. The tone and verbiage used mirrored the person who shouted those horrible things at Jiang Li.

“Do you think we can find this person?” Mo Li asked Quan Yu.

“We’ve thought about doing that before.” Quan Yu sighed helplessly. “We’ve tried our best to reconstruct the image from the video but due to the camera angle and low video quality, we couldn’t get a good image of the person.

“Other than that, we have tried to find the livestreamer who posted this video. They had used some kind of method to hid their IP. We’ve reached out to the hosting platform, they also don’t know much about this person. This is a very mysterious character.”

In other words, other than the clues from the dead bodies, their only lead was the unreliable homeless man

At the moment, Ah Si suddenly said, “Wait, this He Sen lives at Central City: Hong Yuan Jing Ye too.”
