Six accomplices in the case
Fifty-Nine Substitute (Part 2)
"Zhao Zhao said he would send you a message - did you see that photo that will be on the front line of the hot search list and public opinion battlefield in a few minutes?" Xu Muyang raised his phone and shook it slightly, looking down at the person next to him. A sneaky head came over and slapped the little substitute's confused and curious face. He turned around and put away the crossbody bag that was a little in the way, and used his strength to push Xu Xingchen, who was sitting on the suitcase, in the direction of Huo Ke. "My lord is talking, it's not time for you to listen yet."

Shao Jie slowly walked through the crowd standing in front of the luggage transfer tray. Hearing Xu Muyang's slightly lowered voice, he slowly reopened the photo he had only glanced at briefly and received the original image data. , then zoom in and look carefully.

Reading images loaded with several megabytes still feels like a blur of hidden guilt.

The paparazzi reporter who secretly took the photo was probably an unusually brand-new melon egg. I don’t know whether the exposure, white balance, or shutter parameters were adjusted wrong before the shooting started, or the angle of the hiding place was too weird. Shao Jie’s His tall and slender head, like a telegraph pole, looked like a short winter melon in the photo. He looked just a few centimeters different from Officer Jiang, who was captured as a ghost on the side.

However, these vain artistry and aesthetics are of no use in a framed photo. As long as there is no doubt about Shao Jie's side face that seems to be being lectured and the team uniform jacket he is wearing, there is no doubt about the relationship between the two. The police officer badge in front of Jiang Mo shone like gold.

"I said that safety comes first before the competition and I won't let you ask for leave. It's okay now. I was rushing to deliver materials to people. Was it filmed? Or was it filmed in front of the company's house? The incisor tower of the base was filmed. You don’t even know the insects are chewing such a big hole.”

Xu Muyang raised his hand to stop Shao Jie's retorted argument with pursed lips. He tapped his cell phone on the electronic wooden fish for a long time. He took a long breath before he managed to regain his composure and raised his chin a little, " What are you doing with Officer Jiang? Why did you show your police ID? To be honest, you really don’t have any cases, right?"

Shao Jie opened his mouth and was choked by her: "...Didn't Sister Zhao tell you?"

"She said that Officer Jiang went to your company to investigate a witness who was indirectly related to her. Didn't you just go to persuade your emotionally injured buddy not to risk life or death?" Xu Muyang thought about Zhao Zhaozui for a moment. What he said was concise and to the point, "That's only half of what I said. She didn't know about the second half when you went downstairs to chase Officer Jiang. Let me ask you."

"She just looked downstairs with a telescope. She didn't know...Jiang Mo's coat has shallow pockets, and his police officer ID card was dropped on the sofa in the company. He has been running around investigating crimes recently, so he can't leave her. I will send it to her. , It’s that simple... But the person who took the photo was really listening to her instructions, telling me to train well." Shao Jie stared at Jiang Mo's back in the photo for a long time, "Who would have thought of this. It can also lead to public opinion being investigated by the police - it’s a pity that Officer Jiang’s face was not photographed.”

"Jiang Weili has been away from the team for a day and a half, and he has probably done a lot of messy things... He still can't clear up the lawsuit on his head, so he thought about taking action first. After all... this photo is just an excuse. Find one. Let's put the match-fixing scandal and online betting shit on your head first and hold it down for this playoffs." Seeing that Xu Muyang was upset, he raised his fingertips and dismissed the picture that Shao Jie was still thinking about. "I've just been in contact with Chen Duo, trying to get a proactive cooperation first. However, it's unknown what the consequences of the scandal will be on the Internet. What are you going to do?"

"Anyway, the training match arranged for Xu Xingchen in advance without his ID turned out to be pretty good..." Shao Jie gently tapped the edge of the phone case twice and let out a long "hmm".

"The rest just...let it take its own course."

The irresponsible news that a well-known e-sports player was reported for suspected match-fixing and gambling and was detained by the police for investigation almost reached the highest point on the list of entertainment events within three minutes of posting. As a hotly searched person, Shao Jie had a solid sleep on the bus heading to the event makeup shooting venue. When he woke up, he first tried to take a look at the public personal accounts of major platforms and the official account of the DRG club, which were completely paralyzed, but to no avail. Holding a phone that was so hot that it crashed and crashed, I basically didn’t see the excitement of being scolded to death. In the end, because I was asked by the official to temporarily stop personal filming and wait for the notification, I was really bored, so I could only sit next to Xiao Kugua and review the training game tape with him. I patted the back of Xu Xingchen’s head, who felt like a disaster was coming, and then quickly moved my eyes and hands. They stopped Li Zechuan and Wen Xi who were about to rush out of the dressing room when they heard any noise, and waved to Tao Fang, who was leaning on the sofa near the door, to quickly block the door.

The semi-underground waiting room of the shooting studio was filled with a damp and stale air.

As soon as Shao Jie's hot search hit the list, Xu Muyang's mobile phone was bombarded several times by several leaders of the event organizer. She picked up the phone and ran out the door. The atmosphere was so tense that the entire room was filled with a terrifying silence. Even those inside and outside the club, even if they had expected it, were still shaken by the sudden outburst of slander.

Tao Fang sat on the armrest of the sofa holding his phone. Even though he knew it would take time to clear his "wrong", he couldn't help but keep refreshing the entry square to check the latest progress. He seemed to be lost in his own thoughts. When Shao Jie called him, he raised his head slowly. He tilted his head to hear the shouting echoing in the corridor, and was about to lean over to close the half-open door.

However, the movement was slightly slower for less than half a second. Jiang Weili, who should have arrived at the shooting location an hour later, leaned half in, pressed his side against the armrest of the DRG waiting room, and then completely opened the half-open door panel. Pulling it open, he allowed a crowd of "shrimp soldiers and crab generals" behind him to swarm forward and crowded in front of the dressing room door in strange shapes.

Jiang Weili stretched his neck and searched intently for a long time. He looked at Shao Jie from a distance and slightly raised his eyebrows: "Hey, Shao Jie is still here? What's going on on the Internet? Can you handle it?"

His insulting words made even the unrelated styling teacher frown, hissing, looking at the silence in the room without saying anything, and looking over the makeup mirror at the door with disgust.

Shao Jie was sulking over Li Zechuan, who was so angry that he wanted to raise his arms. He glanced at Jiang Weili's pretending to be concerned and had no intention of paying attention to him. He waited until he listened with his ears propped up and heard the water-cooler team behind him saying something like "the playoffs are over" on the left and "Why did it come out so quickly if we cooperated with the investigation?" Yea, he suddenly laughed sinisterly, and before Huo Ke, who was wandering in the corridor smoking a cigarette, rushed over with a group of security guards and event staff to intervene in the conflict that was about to break out, he pressed Li Zechuan's shoulders and stood up. , gave Jiang Weili a condescending look.

"Jiang Weili, you also know that you can only hold me back for one playoff season, right?...You have pushed me to the forefront. Do you think...how many more days of your life are left?"

Shao Jie raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiang Weili's stiff and twitching face with a half-smile.

"If you have nothing to say to me in person, then... I wish you a happy 'last' playoff game."

Due to work and health reasons, I will be working on another day~
