Chapter 120: The Trainee Approaching Two and a Half Years of Live Broadcasts
Because Little Silly said it would be in the evening, Jiang Yun spent the afternoon playing games at home.
Around five o’clock, just as Jiang Yun was considering whether to go out, Little Silly called again.
Jiang Yun assumed she wanted to ask for the address, so he said directly, “Let’s go to that Sichuan restaurant from last time, the one right next to where your Ferrari had the accident. You know the place, right?”
“Uh... I do know the place, but I’m calling about something else, Yunzi-ge,” Little Silly’s voice on the other end sounded a bit strange. She seemed hesitant.
Jiang Yun wasn’t sure but still asked, “What’s up?”
“It’s about dinner. Can we postpone it a few days? Something came up last minute, so I probably can’t treat you today.”
“Oh, that’s all? No problem, then let’s do it next time,” Jiang Yun replied casually.
After all, Little Silly had been busy switching platforms these days, so it was normal for her to be tied up. He didn’t think much of it.
“Phew, that’s a relief. See you later, bye,” Little Silly exhaled deeply and quickly hung up, as if not wanting to talk to Jiang Yun any longer.
Her behavior made Jiang Yun feel even more suspicious.
“What’s gotten into her?” he muttered to himself.
Since no one was treating him to dinner tonight, Jiang Yun decided not to go out and simply ordered takeout.
He lay on the couch, scrolling through Douyin to pass the time while waiting for his food.
The very first video he opened made him fall silent.
“Today, a woman was seen running nearly naked on the streets of Chengdu. Passersby immediately called the police upon discovering her.”
“The police arrived promptly to calm her down and provided clothing to cover her exposed body.”
“Since her short-sleeved shirt and underwear showed signs of tearing, the police suspected she had been assaulted, and began questioning her.”
“But the woman’s eyes flickered nervously and her speech was hesitant, making the police suspect the situation was more complicated. They immediately reviewed surveillance footage from nearby streets.”
“After checking the footage, the police discovered an utterly ridiculous scene...”
Indeed, this nearly naked woman running on the main street of Chengdu was none other than the popular big-streamer who had her skirt snatched by a rat earlier that day.
For some reason, instead of calling a friend to bring clothes, she chose to run home like that.
She was reported by a passerby who witnessed the scene.
Fearing she might have been assaulted, the police reviewed nearby surveillance footage to understand what had happened.
Thus, the absurd events that took place near the orphanage earlier that morning were exposed.
The worst part was that although Jiang Yun and several other streamers had their faces pixelated, people still recognized them.
“Do you see the guy in the middle with his arm bandaged? That’s Yunzi-ge!”
“Even without seeing his face, I recognized Yunzi-ge immediately.”
“Guys, I have a replay of the livestream—this girl is seriously got it all! Big and pale!”
“A short ten-minute experience like this might never happen to me in my lifetime. No wonder it’s Yunzi-ge!”
“Fake titleholder Douluo: tried to pull down his pants on Yunzi-ge’s livestream. Real titleholder Douluo: just walked over to say hi, then got four livestreams banned.”
“This ridiculous situation actually seems reasonable because Yunzi-ge was there.”
“Hello everyone, I’m a personal trainee about to hit two and a half years of livestreaming, with the innate Abstract Saint Body, Little Silly the Sports Car Killer, Spring Road War God, Titleholder Douluo, Edogawa Koyun!”
“Yunzi-ge: You can always find me either in the livestream room or at the police station.”
“..........”
Seeing the teasing in the livestream chat, Jiang Yun’s mouth hung slightly open.
It all felt... strange...
Had he really gotten this many nicknames without realizing it?
Suddenly, Jiang Yun thought back to Little Silly’s call just now.
Could it be she had seen this Douyin video?
He glanced at the trending tag under the video... Yeah, it was hard not to have seen it.
But any clear-eyed person could tell this whole video was just a series of coincidences.
A pile of coincidences stacked together.
He couldn’t have caused all this just because he was there, right?
Even though, well... technically, he was involved...
But would a normal person think they caused it and then be afraid to meet the other party?
Jiang Yun imagined himself in Little Silly’s shoes... and he’d probably feel that way.
After all, several cars were wrecked...
And both female streamers in the video didn’t end up well.
One was probably disgusted to the point of psychological trauma—she might never eat eight-treasure porridge again.
The other... faced nationwide social death, even worse.
If he were Little Silly... she’d probably have blocked him by now.
At that moment, Jiang Yun suddenly understood why the experience card had a note saying “Heavenly Star of Misfortune.”
Whoever was near Jiang Yun while using this card was doomed!
If he hadn’t been using the card in China but in the free country of America...
In that country where civilians can legally carry firearms, Jiang Yun suspected wherever he went, people would end up dead.
Death had arrived—real life version!
..............
Elsewhere, Little Silly sat inside her car, nervously patting her chest.
“Thank goodness, thank goodness. I almost went out for dinner. Good thing I have the habit of scrolling Douyin.”
Next to her, Sister Hump teased, “I said, it’s just a bunch of coincidences strung together. Is it really that scary?”
Little Silly turned expressionless to Sister Hump and said, “You’re not afraid? Then you go have dinner with him. I’ll help you set it up. If you’re lucky, you might even get to livestream on Douyin.”
“Uh... no need. I don’t really want to livestream on Douyin,” Sister Hump said nervously, turning to look out the window.
The streamer circle was like the entertainment industry—both places where people strongly believed in luck.
After all, there were so many overnight sensations in these circles that everyone had to believe in luck.
Believing in luck naturally led to believing in other things.
Especially after witnessing the real-world power behind Jiang Yun’s nickname “Little Silly the Sports Car Killer,” Sister Hump was even more convinced of one thing:
Jiang Yun was not normal!
Like today’s incident—if it had happened to anyone else, Sister Hump would have thought it was just a coincidence, enjoyed the gossip, and moved on.
But Jiang Yun was at the scene... so it had to be his fault!
After all, only five people were there, four got unlucky, and he escaped unscathed. If that’s not his fault, then whose is it?!
This guy was downright eerie!
