In the midst of his friendâs angry outburst, Wang Chongyang finally realized what was happening.
âYouâ¦are you saying that thereâs really going to be a fire at the shopping mall?â
He still found it hard to believe. Could this Brother Dao really be that miraculous?
âD*mn it! What are you still hesitating for? Your rubbish shopping mall! Iâve told you countless times to upgrade the fire safety system! When have you ever listened?â
âIâm telling you, this Brother Dao is truly extraordinary! Donât doubt it!â
âAlright⦠Hereâs the deal, Chongyang, hurry to the shopping mall now, Iâm on my way too!â
âListen to me, call the person in charge of the shopping mall now! Tell them to close it immediately! A few days of lost revenue wonât make a difference to you.â
Wang Chongyang took a deep breath.
In a serious tone, he said, âI understand, meet at the entrance of the shopping mall later.â
He hung up the phone.
Gradually, Wang Chongyang regained his composure.
He knew that it was no longer a matter of whether he believed it or not.
The shopping mall had to be closed immediately!
Otherwiseâ¦
If nothing happened, that would be fine.
But if something really occurred, he might have to face the consequences for the rest of his life!
How could he still lead a laid-back life? It would be better to just die!
He picked up his phone and called the person in charge of the shopping mall.
The other person answered quickly.
âHello, boss.â
âYeah, you need to close the shopping mall right away, say itâs for a fire drill, lasting⦠three days.â
âTell all the shop owners that I will compensate for all the losses during these three days. Ask everyone to leave the shopping mall immediately.â
âBut⦠Boss, donât believe what others are saying, the shopping mall is fine now, thereâs no fireâ¦
âYou know about this too?â Wang Chongyang interrupted before the manager could finish.
âAh⦠well, a few shop owners came to me, and thenâ¦â The manager felt that his bossâs tone was not right and became somewhat flustered.
âKnow that you didnât tell me? Li Qiang! Do you no longer want to work here? If you donât, then get the hell out!â
âNow immediately notify all the shop owners to leave! And get in touch with the fire department, say that we suspect safety issues at the shopping mall and request an inspection and rectification! Ask for their assistance in investigating!â
âBeep, beep, beepâ¦â
Wang Chongyang was really infuriated!
The manager hadnât even told him about such a big issue.
If it werenât for his platform account and others knowing about it, giving internet users a place to remind himâ¦
The consequences would be unimaginableâ¦
After following Wang Chongyang, Li Yidao continued to browse through videos on his phone.
He didnât utter a word, rapidly swiping through his phone screen.
In truth, he was afraid to speak!
He feared that saying the wrong thing would lead to him being âkilledâ by the system
After a short while, he followed dozens more people!
The number was about to reach a hundred!
However, at this moment in his live stream, an unusual silence prevailed!
No one was typing in the chat!
Everyone felt a sense of fear spreading!
Time was passing by second by secondâ¦
As the clock was moving close to the time of the fire, to be honest, Li Yidaoâs heart was filled with uncertainty.
He had already done enough, and now he could only leave it to fate!
He even doubted that if he dared to say one more word or do one more thing, the systemâs punishment might strike him first!
Death!
For him, it was a great fear!
Now, it all depended on the shopping mall owner and the remaining strength of the netizens!
No one knew how much time had passedâ¦
Li Yidaoâs speed of following began to decrease gradually.
In the beginning, he would follow someone after watching maybe ten or twenty videos.
Now, he needed to browse through one or two hundred before receiving notification.
Moreover, the death probability in the notifications was gradually decreasing as well.
At 6:16 PM, after a two-hour silence in the live stream, someone finally spoke
âI canât believe it! They closed it! The shopping mall really closed its doors!â
âYes! I just went to check! Jiaxin Shopping Mall is really closed! There are many firefighters there too!â
âThatâs right! I was about to say the same thing! They closed it! They really closed it!â
âI saw it too! The shopping mall owner was there personally, leading the firefighters into the mall!â
âPhew⦠Looks like this owner is capable. It should be fine now, right?â
âSteady, steady! I donât know what the owner did, but I saw several fire trucks heading there! â
âIt should be fine this time! Brother Dao is amazing!â
âYeah, Brother Dao is really amazing!â
âBut wait, are you all really convinced that there was a fire in that shopping mall? Could there be other issues?â
âNo way! Brother Dao made it very clear, didnât he?â
âWhat did Brother Dao say? He didnât say anything at all! He just gave us hints, and from the beginning until now, itâs all been you guys speculating!â
âThatâs right! Brother Dao didnât say anything. If there wasnât a fire in that shopping mall, what should we do? My mom was one of the people Brother Dao followed!â
âYeah, yeah! Brother Dao, you need to come out and tell us what really happened! I beg you!â
âBrother Dao, stop tormenting everyone! Please tell us!â
At this moment, Li Yidao saw the discussions among the viewers in the live stream and initially felt relieved.
The shopping mall was closed, and the firefighters went there. So there was no danger anymore!
But why did these people jump out?
Were these guys overthinking it? âYou want a hint? Then Iâll give you one!â
Brother Dao stopped scrolling videos.
Instead, he turned the camera to the paper doll he made next to him.
Hmm⦠the paper doll was the jade maiden in his live stream, the one fans always strongly requested to appear during his live stream.
Seeing this scene, especially when Li Yidao stopped watching videos after hearing that the shopping mall was closed, some smart fans instantly understood.
âPhew⦠Brother Dao said itâs fine now, so everyone can disperse.â
âYeah, finally itâs over, but it was really close. If there had been a fire, the consequences would have been unimaginable!â
âThatâs right.â
âNo, why disperse? Brother Dao showed a paper doll. Does it mean thereâs no hope? My mom! Sobbing, I donât want her to die!â
âYeah! Itâs a paper doll, the kind used for the deceased!â
âOh my god! Iâm done for! Brother Dao followed me, and now this paper doll?
Does it mean Iâm going to die?â
Li Yidao was truly speechless, looking at the absurdity of these fans, he silently turned the camera to himself. He cursed in the heart. âI wonât show the paper doll anymore, okay?â
âThis was just too much!â
Some netizensâ thought processes were still abnormal!
âBrother Dao, look at Brother Daoâs expression, he doesnât look happy at all. Oh no, we guessed it wrong! The problem isnât at this shopping mall!â
âFirst the paper dolls, and now Brother Daoâs serious expression, itâs over! Iâm going to die!â
âHelp, Brother Dao, please spare me!â
Li Yidao was speechless.
The smart netizens were speechless too.
âSo tired⦠These fans are really difficult to handleâ¦â In the end, he decided to end the live stream.
Then he opened his homepage.
In the input box, he typed, âItâs getting late, everyone should go to sleep.
Todayâs follow is different from before.â
After saying that, he directly closed the phone and threw it aside.
Looking at the screen for over two hours was exhausting, and his little fingers were sweaty and sore.
F*ck!
He provided such a clear hint!
If someone still didnât understand the meaning, they might as well get their heads checked!
And as Li Yidaoâs status update was posted.
This time, there werenât many dull-witted fans left. Everyone understood the meaning of his words.
âUnlike before.â
It was already very clear.
Today, the Grim Reaper was on vacation!
No one had to die!
As Li Yidao closed the live stream, he slumped directly onto the recliner. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
lust then⦠a figure appeared at the door.
Seeing that the funeral shopâs lights were still on, the figure lightly knocked on the door.
Li Yidao, who forgot to lock the door, could only get up with a helpless expression.
âWho is it?â His tone was clearly not very friendly.
After all, anyone who has been working for two hours and is just about to rest would be unhappy if they were disturbed.
As he got up and walked to the front desk, he looked towards the entrance using the dim light from the door. He was almost scared to death!
D*mn it!
He saw an old man with a hunched figure and wrinkles all over his face standing at the door!
And he was smiling at himâ¦.
