Master Grim Reaper Makes His Debut in Center Position

Early next morning, the trainees were roughly woken from their dreams and began preparing for the day’s show recording.

When Lu Xu left his room, he coincidentally met the Ji Xiunian who was about to go eat breakfast. The two of them began walking together in tacit understanding, and distanced themselves from the others without changing their expressions.

Ji Xiunian spoke first and asked Lu Xu in a voice only the two of them could hear, “Have you seen Instructor Tao this morning?”

“I haven’t.” Lu Xu shook his head, but he had a bad premonition. “His hands might have gotten itchy last night, and he went to flick at someone’s forehead?”

“Tsk…”

Now that Lu Xu had said it, this scene involuntarily surfaced in Ji Xiunian’s head. He thought that if this was actually true, then Qu Dehui would go crazy.

As expected, he had just thought of this when he heard Qu Dehui’s voice appear in front of them. “You must investigate this for me, I need to see who is playing these vicious tricks. He has already affected my daily life; if it wasn’t for the consideration of the program staff’, I would have reported it to the police long ago.”

The staff stood at the side discussing something in small voices, but Qu Dehui was not acting like his normal self, merely repeatedly asking for Fan Zeng to come out and speak with him.

Tao Yingbo was originally following behind him. When he saw Lu Xu and Ji Xiunian, he came over to greet them good morning.

Lu Xu glanced at Qu Dehui’s obviously red forehead, then gave Tao Yingbo a look—

You did this again, right?

Tao Yingbo smiled happily, and didn’t refute it.

For someone like Qu Dehui, just hitting his forehead was letting him off lightly.

Lu Xu didn’t pay too much attention to Tao Yingbo. He didn’t want others to see that there was something going on, so he merely exchanged glances with Ji Xiunian and walked over to the other side.

“Hui ge, what’s going on?”

Qu Dehui was currently frantic to see Fan Zeng. When he heard movement, he looked back to see the two of them, and his expression became harder to read. “Ai, what can I do, I just want an explanation.”

“Explanation?” Lu Xu appeared to not understand, and naturally asked him, “Hui ge, did something happen?”

Qu Dehui was originally very annoyed, but when he looked up and saw this concerned face, he couldn’t help but spill out his troubles. “The first day I came to live at the apartment building, someone knocked on my door in the middle of the night…”

“In the middle of the night?” Lu Xu raised the pitch of his voice, as if he were very shocked. “There’s someone who wouldn’t sleep and instead run to knock on your door in the middle of the night?”

“There really is. It’s fine if it’s just for a day, but if it happened two days in a row in the middle of the night, who would be able to handle it?” When Qu Dehui mentioned this, he became angry. His head was blowing up from not being able to sleep for two days in a row.

As Qu Dehui spoke, Fan Zeng’s assistant ran over hurriedly. “Instructor Qu, did you post on Weibo?”

“I did, what about it? I don’t even have the right to post on Weibo after being harassed?” Someone had been knocking on Qu Dehui’s door two days in a row, and he had posted on Weibo to vent his stuffy heart to his fans—

[@Qu Dehui V: I don’t know who likes me so much, knocking on my door in the middle of the night every day. If you have something to say then say it face-to-face. This really makes me annoyed (laughing crying)]

The moment this Weibo was posted, the fans immediately jumped onto it—

[@Love Life Love My Qu: Fuck no way, a sasaeng? Hui ge, are you okay?]

[@A Shiitake Stewing With Youtiao: What the hell, knocking on doors in the middle of the night is poisonous. Hui ge, you should report it to the police. What are you going to do if something happens?]

[@A Bellflower, Not A Rose: With all due respect, are stalkers the result of such a toxic society? Knocking on doors in the middle of the night is really too unsophisticated. Just thinking about it makes me mad.]

There were also sharp-eyed netizens who immediately noticed the location on Qu Dehui’s Weibo post—

[@Holmes Is Not Me: Dongcheng TV Building, isn’t this where they’re recording ‘Birth of an Idol’? Wait a moment, maybe Hui ge went to the idol show as a guest?]

[@The Little Mushroom Under The Lamplight: Aaaaaaaaaaa oh my god, a celebrity I really like and my favorite idol show have collaborated! Wait a moment, I think I’ve gone off topic, so who exactly is knocking on others’ doors in the middle of the night?]

[@Legend Of The Blue River: @Birth Of An Idol Official V: Please give the correct news, did Hui ge come to your group to offer his help? If so, then please explain the reason for why there’s knocking in the middle of the night. I’m very suspicious right now that you guys are violating an artist’s rights. (smile)]

Very quickly, the #Qu Dehui Posts About Sasaeng# topic became trending on the hot topics list.

In this era of fandom culture, sasaeng fans had always been the public enemy of fans.

The moment Qu Dehui mentioned that there were people knocking on his door in the middle of the night, everyone began cursing sasaeng fans about bothering the program group, asking them to explain.

Now that the situation with Qu Dehui had climbed onto the hot topics, every second or third person would @ the program group, asking for an explanation.

The assistant had edited videos with Fan Zeng all night, and was about to go rest when she saw the Weibo post, and had to rush over hurriedly to deal with it.

Qu Dehui didn’t think posting a Weibo would make any difference, and said harshly, “Where is Fan Zeng, I’m waiting to speak directly with him.”

“Director Fan stayed up working all night, and I don’t think he’s slept very much yet. How about we let him rest well and not bother him for now.” The assistant was also very sleepy herself, but she was younger and could hold herself together. “Hui ge, posting a Weibo post isn’t going to solve it either. How about this, you can find out how to solve this issue, and we will do our best to cooperate, okay?”

There was a lot of activity going on here, and many trainees looked over when they passed by, curious about what had happened.

Qu Dehui’s image had always been very gentlemanly and polite. Seeing so many people watching, his expression became much warmer. “I don’t actually have very demanding requests, I just want to see the surveillance for the past two days. I must find that person, or else what am I going to do at night afterwards?”

“That’s fine, that’s fine.” The assistant did have this authority, and hurriedly directed the relevant staff members to go retrieve the surveillance recording.

Thinking of the fact that he was about to catch the person harassing him, Qu Dehui became spirited. “I just want to see who has been knocking on my door in the middle of the night.”

Lu Xu glanced at the perpetrator Tao Yingbo who was standing next to him, then smiled as he asked Qu Dehui, “Hui ge, can I come with you to see what that guy looks like?”
