Chapter 357: Chapter 335: Really Got Caught!

Ji Xizhi also noticed the people coming in at the door, while the other guests were still playing around. Ji Xizhi walked out from the edge of the live broadcast camera.

The storm came swiftly and left just as quickly. The outside no longer looked like it had just been pouring rain, and the rainfall gradually subsided.

The police officer came over with an umbrella, and Ji Xizhi welcomed him under the porch, not going into the room full of live broadcast cameras.

Zhong Yulu, inside the house, watched Ji Xizhi and the police officer conversing, her breath catching.

Hadn’t everything already ended? Why did Ji Xizhi call the police? What’s she going to do? Report a crime?

No, she didn’t do it, they should be catching that Black Fan who sabotaged Ji Xizhi!

Zhong Yulu’s nerves were completely taut.

The audience in the “Life Experience” live stream, having just witnessed such an incident, found it hard to shift their focus away from Ji Xizhi, despite Zhu Xiu’an’s attempts at humor.

As soon as Ji Xizhi went out, the audience noticed immediately.

However, as “Life Experience” was still a variety show, the PD wisely didn’t move the camera outside, so the audience couldn’t see.

The program team and other guests, upon seeing Ji Xizhi talking to the police, automatically assumed it was about what Qi Zheng mentioned on Weibo, and didn’t think much more of it. Only Director Wang momentarily released Zhu Xiu’an and proactively went over to understand the situation.

After learning about Ji Xizhi’s past, Director Wang had come to see himself as a protector of Ji Xizhi, so when the kids in his care needed the police to report something, he naturally had to be there.

When Director Wang caught up, Ji Xizhi was expressing her gratitude to the police officer.

Ji Xizhi said, “Thank you very much. As soon as I finish here, I’ll rush to the police station to make a formal statement!”

The police officer waved his hand: “You know the procedure well, we won’t say much more. We will take that person in for questioning first. Later, colleagues of ours will come to take away the relevant evidence from the yacht.”

The police officer had just finished speaking.

Director Wang immediately asked, “What person? What evidence?”

Wasn’t the case handed over to Qi Zheng? Moreover, they’re not even in the same district, cross-regional enforcement can’t be that quick, right?

The police officer glanced at Director Wang, then at Ji Xizhi, but didn’t respond.

Ji Xizhi took the initiative to explain: “This is our program’s director, Director Wang.”

Only then did the police officer reply, “Ms. Ji has just reported a case. Her vessel showed signs of intentional sabotage. We found a suspicious individual by the sea.”

As the officer spoke, he also glanced at the area outside Old Tao’s house.

Director Zhang followed this line of sight outside. Initially, he couldn’t see clearly from inside the house, but now he understood with one glance.

The officer speaking to Ji Xizhi in the courtyard was alone, but outside Old Tao’s premises stood another officer holding an umbrella, next to whom stood a man in a baseball cap being held.

The cap sat loosely on the man’s head, and his face was unkempt and stubbly—both woeful and weathered. Director Wang stared for a while before recognizing who he was.

“Isn’t this your… Black Fan?”

Regarding the factory case encountered in Ping’an Village during the first episode, other than Ji Xizhi, Director Wang was the most knowledgeable about the details.

Director Wang could recognize this person in one glance, specifically because of his identity—not only was he the Black Fan litigating against Ji Xizhi, but he was also a family member related to individuals in the factory case. After the case concluded, this person fooled numerous fans for money under the guise of a lawsuit with Ji Xizhi, causing quite a stir.

Director Wang looked shocked: “Why is he here?”

Ji Xizhi succinctly replied: “My rubber boat was tampered with.”

Director Wang’s eyes widened: “!!!”

“#@*% Damn it, was it his doing???” Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵

Director Wang couldn’t hold back and cursed.

Ji Xizhi cleared her throat twice, signaling that the police were still present.

After Director Wang let slip, he seamlessly smiled: “Luckily the police are here! Truly dedicated, upright, solving problems for the people. I’ll definitely send a flag as thanks tomorrow!”

Police officer: “………No need, it’s my duty.” As expected from the entertainment industry, they’re adept at changing facial expressions.

Ji Xizhi and the police officer settled on a time to make the statement. Just after the officer left Old Tao’s yard,

Zhong Yulu stealthily moved over.

Initially, she just wanted to eavesdrop on what Ji Xizhi might say to the police. But when she came out and looked up, she saw the man in the baseball cap by the courtyard gate next to the officer.

He really got caught!!!

Ji Xizhi knew that someone had deliberately sabotaged her rubber boat, she’s known all along!

The fear in Zhong Yulu’s heart peaked at this moment.

She didn’t even notice Ji Xizhi and Director Wang walking up to her.

Ji Xizhi saw off the police officer, then turned and noticed Zhong Yulu’s expression. She glanced in the direction Zhong Yulu was looking, then nonchalantly asked a question.

“Do you know him?”

Zhong Yulu, startled like a bird, denied: “No! I don’t know him!”

Director Wang, however, was puzzled and countered: “Why not? Didn’t you go to court with him? There were so many reports, interviews, trending searches, and such; many people should have known, right? Didn’t you see any of it?”

Zhong Yulu forced herself to calm down and found a random excuse: “……Maybe I was busy at the time.”

After speaking, she dared not look at Ji Xizhi anymore.

The “Life Experience” live stream viewers also heard this disjointed conversation, but since the PD didn’t film outside, nobody knew what had just happened outside.

[What’s this about knowing or not knowing? Why are Ji Xizhi and Zhong Yulu playing riddles!]

[Director Wang mentioned a lawsuit, is it the lawsuit between Ji Xizhi and Hangxing Entertainment? Did someone from Hangxing come outside??? Damn, PD, where’s your common sense right now, move the camera over!]

[Logically, the show’s PD, having learned from Zhi Zhi, shouldn’t be clueless about what audiences want to see! Since Ji Xizhi went out and the camera didn’t follow, could it imply that those outside aren’t suitable for filming? Knowing that Old Tao’s house has already agreed to film, and nearby villagers should have been informed, Hangxing Entertainment people probably can’t come this quickly. If it were Qi Zheng and others, it should be filmable, so all things considered, it’s highly likely the police are outside?]

[Sherlock Holmes reborn upstairs??? Reasonable and well-argued!]

[A new question arises, what’s the matter then? Hoping Ah Fu digs deeper~]

Though the program didn’t film outside, many fans had accurately guessed who was outside, but nobody could deduce the exact circumstances for the moment.

The rain hadn’t stopped yet, and it didn’t seem like it would anytime soon. With the program having rented Old Tao’s house, there was no rush to return to the small house.

They started today’s show tasks on-site at Old Tao’s house.
