Chapter 174
"So Lang Zhe was really involved in drug trafficking?"
"Could this be part of the Top Flow Group\'s stage play? Cooperating with the police? A cover operation? That would be so meaningful."
"What a coincidence that no one knew the Top Flow Group actually brought drug-sniffing dogs, and Lang Zhe just happened to show up at the scene. Did he walk into a trap?"
"If it\'s a coincidence, it\'s hilarious. Everyone was arguing about Lang Zhe\'s innocence before, but now there\'s nothing left to argue about."
"Good heavens, an entertainment show turned into a criminal case! I knew the Top Flow Group\'s performance couldn\'t end normally!"
"Hold on, Entertainment Judge, it\'s one thing to judge the entertainment industry\'s misconduct, but now you\'re dealing with actual crimes? Crossing professional boundaries? Ji Fei is really making me laugh!"
"Well, that\'s Ji Fei for you, never failing to entertain the spectators."
Ji Fei was sitting in the audience seats waiting for instructions, browsing the internet and feeling frustrated seeing everyone talking about her again.
[How did this become about me? What does this have to do with me? Little Seven was borrowed from Miss Pei, and the drugs were Lang Zhe\'s own doing. I\'m just an innocent bystander throughout all this. This is so unfair.]
The Qin family members sitting nearby couldn\'t help but find the situation both amusing and exasperating.
This turn of events was truly unexpected for everyone.
Sun Man, sitting nearby, was still in shock after hearing bits of news about the drug trafficking, which was completely beyond her imagination.
Lu Fei wasn\'t present, as she was Lang Zhe\'s mother and had voluntarily gone to assist with the investigation.
The show\'s outcome didn\'t matter anymore; they were just waiting for the police to catch the contact person hiding in the bathroom before ending the lockdown.
They conducted identity checks and released people one by one.
When the Qin family went through the inspection, they saw the busy Luo Fei.
Luo Fei came over to greet them, and despite being busy, he wore a smile and looked at Ji Fei much more kindly.
Although it was a coincidence, they had to admit that without Ji Fei and Qin Zhao\'s stage play, they wouldn\'t have caught this big fish.
Moreover, their live performance was playing on computers at the Police Station, and many colleagues were captivated by the plot.
Being able to perform such roles and storylines made Luo Fei view Ji Fei through a different lens.
Many young police officers were now looking at Ji Fei and Qin Zhao with admiration.
"You\'ve been a great help. I\'ll treat you all to dinner later to properly thank you," Luo Fei said.
"Just a coincidence," Qin Xian replied.
[Huh, I hadn\'t even thought about the contact person in the bathroom. Can\'t believe they\'ve already caught them. Tonight was quite productive indeed. Hey, if I could take a look at the contact person, maybe I could... damn, why didn\'t I think of this earlier! Let me see!]
Qin Xian\'s expression changed. Could it work like that?
[What? I can\'t see? Why... oh well, secrets that interfere too much with the real world can\'t be revealed. As expected, this system only allows me to know about personal gossip. Sigh, what a shame.]
Qin Xian finally understood that Ji Fei wasn\'t omniscient; she could only know simple information and influence individuals or those related through cause and effect.
For instance, knowing about Lang Zhe\'s information affected the contact person, and if Ji Fei were to look at the contact person, she might see some trivial information about related people that the police could investigate anyway. However, it would be impossible to immediately know about the masterminds behind it all, as that would have too great an impact.
Qin Xian also felt it was a pity but understood. If she really could do that, Ji Fei\'s abilities would be too powerful.
As it was just a minor incident, Ji Fei and Qin Xian didn\'t dwell on it.
Qin Xian exchanged a few brief words with Luo Fei before leading his family out.
At the entrance, they encountered Little Seven resting on the ground.
Upon seeing Ji Fei, Little Seven stood up, whimpering and wagging its tail frantically.
The trainer smiled nearby and said, "Little Seven is apologizing for not completing the performance with you."
Ji Fei laughed and stepped forward to pat the dog\'s head. "No need for that! Little Seven is so cool. What you did was much more meaningful than my performance! Good job, Little Seven!"
Little Seven was overjoyed at the praise, constantly rubbing against Ji Fei\'s legs.
Everyone couldn\'t resist asking for photos with Little Seven before leaving the studio.
Outside, they saw the director and producer, looking completely drained as they dealt with the aftermath.
Pei Mingxuan went forward to check on them.
Then two slightly resentful gazes fell upon Ji Fei in the crowd.
Ji Fei: ?
"This time it really wasn\'t my fault. I had no idea beforehand," Ji Fei protested her innocence. "Besides, isn\'t this a good thing? We caught criminals."
"We\'re very happy to have done our civic duty, but our hearts can\'t take it anymore. We\'d like to live a few more years," the producer said, almost in tears.
The director added emotionally, "Next time, could you please avoid our shows when you participate in programs? I feel like our destinies might be incompatible."
Everyone: ... They wanted to laugh but didn\'t dare.
Indeed, who else\'s show would turn out so dramatic? But since it was just a coincidence, what could they do? They could only pat their shoulders in sympathy.
However, they didn\'t know that this storm was just beginning.
While the internet was buzzing with various speculations about the incident, neither the production team nor the participating artists could say much before the police announcement.
Only audience members who were present in the studio would leak information, though its authenticity was questionable.
But after midnight, the direction of the leaked information changed.
"My neighbor is XX, and I saw police coming to their house in the middle of the night!"
"Does anyone understand what\'s happening? My girlfriend works in an artist\'s PR team and was called away from my arms at midnight for overtime work."
"Has anyone called in a tip to the police? The room above mine is occasionally noisy at night, and I\'ve been tolerating it. Never expected the police to show up today. I sneaked a peek and discovered it was the actor XXX living upstairs."
"Paparazzi caught several artists being taken to the Police Station."
Aliali: 67490172c4f3f33ac480fb60"Whoa, what\'s going on? Wasn\'t it just Lang Zhe who got in trouble tonight?"
By the next morning, the discussions had become increasingly mysterious.
Ji Fei woke up and was eating breakfast when she saw the chaos on Weibo, leaving her equally confused.
At the breakfast table, everyone was gossiping about it.
"What\'s happening?" Qin Rong asked in surprise.
"Apparently, many artists\' homes were raided last night," Qin Zhao said while scrolling through his phone. "Some of them were rumored in the industry to be users."
Qin\'s Father asked, "So it\'s related to Lang Zhe\'s arrest? Wasn\'t he just trafficking, not using?"
Qin\'s Mom, browsing her phone, exclaimed in shock, "My goodness, if this is really related, these artists with good reputations are going to fall from grace!"
Qin Yan said, "Being a fan really comes with risks!"
Ji Fei quickly checked and [Oh, I see. It wasn\'t Lang Zhe, it was that contact person. They actually worked in the entertainment industry and was responsible for selling drugs to artists. So the most valuable thing they had was the list of artists involved in transactions. Damn... they\'ve stirred up a hornet\'s nest? How many artists are going to fall? I can already imagine the fans\' heartbreak.]
