Chapter 65: Deal with Him

Chapter 65: Deal with Him

[Today did you lose weight]: Holy crap!!! This melon, is it fake?

[Ma Baobao’s Baby]: Soft rice, killing the child, killing the woman?

[A Sword of Cold Frost, Life and Death Unknown]: Who in the entertainment industry is this? Judging from this expose wording, the male party is probably not too young.

[O Bubble Milk]: Trembling while clicking it open, after reading I feel relieved, this is definitely not my idol.

[My Power Bank is Out of Battery]: Fake, right? This already involves murder, how could there be no movement at all and still be in the entertainment industry?

[Destined to Love You]: Melon Uncle has exposed things twenty three times, every time accurate, never misses, but this time the melon is really too terrifying.

[Spitting Foundation Liquid]: Tsk! Are these paparazzi annoying or what? Always peeping into celebrities’ private lives. Why not just lie on their windows and watch how they sleep, bathe, and defecate? Aren’t they just a bunch of garbage who rely on other people’s privacy to gain profit and stir chaos in the world?

[With You Till White Hair]: If it is really murder, shouldn’t we call the police? Why is the paparazzi still posting on Weibo?

This was only a small portion of netizens’ comments. Most users were even more curious about who the black silhouette in the image was.

The power of netizens was enormous.

Less than three minutes after this Weibo post was published, the case was solved by the internet.

The black silhouette man was Bai Jia!

Bai Jia, the recently crowned Best Actor who had just won a prestigious award!!!

Bai Jia’s fans instantly exploded in rage.

They rushed under the post to insult, refute, question, and report it, trying to get the account taken down.

At the same time, the man and Ye Wei were troubled as they looked at the rapidly increasing reposts and comments.

“Senior brother, should we call the police?”

The man could not help rolling his eyes.

“Call the police for what?”

“Bai Jia is killing people!” Ye Wei reminded him. “If this blows up, Bai Jia is finished, but if he is not taken down, you are the one who is done for.”

This matter was completely different from cheating, affairs, drugs, or drunk driving.

Even if Bai Jia spent money to suppress it, he would not let their senior brother go afterward.

This was a murder case. At minimum, life imprisonment. At worst, the death penalty.

Bai Jia even dared to kill his wife and child, he was clearly a monster.

Once this was exposed, there would be no room for reconciliation between their senior brother and Bai Jia.

“I know that, but before that we can still make a bit of money.”

The man believed in taking risks for profit.

Now that his junior sister had become a ghost, he had quit acting as an extra and formed a paparazzi studio with her. They had exposed so many entertainment industry secrets.

The more he exposed, the more he felt love and hate for this industry.

He knew paparazzi was not a moral profession, but he always believed he was the only one among them with a conscience.

Small scandals could be suppressed, like drunk driving or assault, but matters of principle had to be exposed even if he had to go abroad.

Once he even hid overseas for over three months, cooperating with a famous female star and the capital behind her to split up the exposed celebrity’s resources. Only after everything was settled did he return safely to the country. It was exhausting, but rewarding.

The man prided himself on being the last shred of conscience in the entertainment industry. He did not plan to let Bai Jia’s matter be suppressed, but he also could not let it go without earning anything.

Ye Wei rolled her eyes.

“Senior brother, you are obsessed with money. Do you want your life or money?”

Money makes ghosts move the millstone.

Her senior brother had earned a lot over the years, but could his savings compete with Bai Jia and the capital behind him?

Bai Jia was a member of the 20 billion club of actors.

How difficult would it be to bring him down?

As a ghost with years of experience, Ye Wei knew from other ghosts that the world was not as simple as ordinary humans imagined.

There were mysterious, unscientific forces in this world.

Bai Jia’s connections and financial power were far stronger than her senior brother’s.

If they really hired some expert to curse or eliminate them, would her senior brother not be dead for sure?

“Of course I choose my life.”

The man suddenly shivered.

“That Pei Ye only made one move earlier, but it is clear, if she wanted to kill you, you would not even know how you died. I do not know what level her power belongs to, but who knows if Bai Jia can hire someone of equal strength to deal with you? Be careful.”

The man felt a chill run down his spine.

“So exaggerated?”

Ye Wei said, “Since ghosts exist in this world, what is so strange about other things happening?”

The man’s back turned cold. He touched the back of his neck and made a decision.

He was going to call the police.

And find an expert to protect himself.

“You should have said so earlier. Why did you not stop me from posting it… sigh, let us first find that great master Pei Ye, then call the police. If we can bring down Bai Jia, we can firmly establish our status in the entertainment industry.”

Ye Wei: “…”

Her senior brother was good at everything except having a brain.

Even at a time like this, he was still thinking about that.

The man and the ghost went to find Pei Ye. On the way, they also saw Bai Jia’s studio official statement.

[Bai Jia Studio V]: Completely false rumors, police report already filed.

The man could not help spitting.

Report your ass.

He knew exactly what Bai Jia had done.

Bai Jia’s own Weibo also posted a statement, along with a lawyer’s letter, with a very tough attitude.

Before the man could post his prepared response, an unknown number called him.

After answering, a few exchanges made the intention clear.

Was this an attempt to buy him off?

The man played verbal games, making the other party think the suppression fee was not enough to buy time.

Ye Wei asked him, “Is Bai Jia trying to suppress this expose?”

“Of course,” the man said. “His new movie is about to be released, a five hundred million investment. He also has many luxury endorsements, and he is negotiating a foreign blockbuster. If that succeeds, he might enter the international film market. Of course he needs to suppress the trending topics immediately.”

Otherwise, once this spreads, the losses would be unimaginable.

Actors had contracts with clauses like refusing to allow misconduct such as gambling or immoral behavior to affect release and promotion, with huge penalties for breach.

Brands also had similar clauses.

Even if this were not proven murder, just the spread of suspicion could cause massive fines and losses.

Faced with this situation, Bai Jia and his studio had to act fast to suppress it.

Looking at the trending list full of Bai Jia related posts marked with explosive and boiling tags, the man felt complicated.

He originally just wanted to dig up some cheating scandals or gossip, but instead stumbled into a murder case.

“Senior brother, what do we do now?”

Their paparazzi studio relied on Ye Wei’s ghost connections and his human connections.

They had released this Bai Jia story impulsively.

Now seeing the entire internet boiling, he started to regret it.

No detailed plan. No escape plan.

“What else can we do?” the man lowered his head and typed on Weibo, biting his lip as he posted.

“Deal with him!”

What is the use of fancy tricks or clever movements?

Face him head on.
