Chương 16: Was she also named by the King of Hell?

"The person... is dead?"

The woman stood there, stunned.

Turning to Jiang Tian, she asked, "What exactly happened?"

"It doesn't really concern me much."

Jiang Tian stammered and gave a vague answer: "She committed suicide by jumping off the building because she couldn't think straight."

"Did she jump to her death herself, or did you force her to jump, or was she already dead and you staged the suicide?"

Jiang Feng seemed to have known everything all along.

He looked at her and questioned her angrily.

"We're all family, what's there to hide from us?"

The woman looked at her son anxiously, "You'd better tell your dad the truth right now, otherwise how can he help you?"

Jiang Tian secretly glanced up to observe his father's expression.

After hesitating for a long time, he let out a helpless sigh.

"It's true that we pushed her down, but she was already dead."

"You don't know, she has a heart condition."

"I had only been doing this for a short while when she stopped responding."

"So her death really isn't my fault!"

Jiang Feng glared at him angrily.

I was furious.

"Would she have died if you hadn't acted recklessly?"

"Alright."

"I will continue to inquire with Master Lin to find out what exactly is threatening your life."

"I'll also use my connections to help you sort this out."

"Try to make people believe that she died because of too much pressure from her family, and that she jumped off a building to commit suicide!"

...

Hello everyone, this is the live broadcast of Hangzhou-Beijing News.

In the video.

The dignified female host is solemnly delivering the news.

At 10: 51 a. m. the day before yesterday, Mr. Li, a resident of Dongcheng District, discovered a woman's body in the long-abandoned Tianlan residential area while searching for his dog.

According to sources, the deceased was named Yan Bingbing, a sophomore at Hangzhou University.

Based on the scene, it appears that the person fell to their death while sightseeing nearby.

The specific cause of death is still under further investigation. Please stay tuned for the latest reports from our station!

There are more than 3, 000 comments below the news article.

"Could it be... that she was also chosen by the King of Hell?"

"Don't go around telling everyone that she was targeted by the King of Hell. Master Lin didn't even pay attention to her."

"Although she wasn't noticed by Master Lin, the 'Brother Tian' who was noticed was also from Hangzhou."

"I knew her; we were classmates. She had excellent grades, but her family put a lot of pressure on her. She often complained to us about the problems in her family of origin. I think she couldn't bear the pressure and chose to commit suicide by jumping off a building."

"I think so too. I've met her father a few times; he has a very fierce face, the kind of person who would like to beat people."

"It must have been because the pressure from her family was too much for her to handle. Otherwise, I really can't imagine why a perfectly healthy person would die."

Even before the official announcement, a flood of suicide-related comments has appeared online.

Some people online have even dug up information about Yan Bingbing's family background.

My father was imprisoned for a period of time many years ago because of a crime he committed.

After coming out, his wife had already run off with someone else, leaving Yan Bingbing and her grandmother behind.

Her grandmother also passed away last year, and she now lives with her father, who has served time in prison.

The online rumors have become increasingly outrageous.

Some people say that Yan Bingbing's father is abusive and likes to take his anger out on his daughter when he comes home drunk.

Therefore, Yan Bingbing could not stand her current life and chose to end her life in a nearby abandoned community.

Some people said her father was a beast who didn't respect his daughter's privacy at all.

Even when drunk, they want to do even more beastly things.

Yan Bingbing committed suicide by jumping off a building because she could not bear the psychological pressure.

"This is absolutely monstrous! How could someone do such a thing to their own daughter!"

"I really hope the authorities will investigate this properly; this girl is so pitiful!"

"Why do I feel like someone is deliberately creating public opinion? I have a feeling things might take a turn for the worse!"

"Where are all these plot twists coming from? Everyone at school knows that."

"Holy crap! This is absolutely mind-blowing! I can't even imagine how desperate she must have felt living in a family like that!"

Jiang Tian was lying on the big bed in the room, happily scrolling through his phone.

Seeing the unsuspecting masses being swayed by the emotions, a smug smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.

He has never been afraid since the beginning of this incident.

Because he knows that in today's society, money means everything.

"Having money means you can do whatever you want, right?"

Jiang Tian looked smug.

To date, the thing that scares him the most is being noticed by Master Lin.

But judging from the current situation, he will be the only exception.

"Why do I feel like the fire isn't burning bright enough?"

He seemed to be deep in thought.

I've come up with a pretty good idea.

Pick up your phone and call your best friend.

"Hey, it's me!"

You've probably seen what happened online, right?

"Heh heh, don't you even know who I am?"

"But I feel the fire isn't burning bright enough yet, so I'd like you to add a few more pieces of firewood for me."

"It's very simple. You just need to find a few self-media bloggers and shoot some footage in front of her dad's stall."

"It would be best to show his ugliest side."

"As for how to get him to show his abilities, I probably don't need to teach you that."

"Okay, it's settled then. I'll send you the address of her dad's stall later."

He hung up the phone, a smug smile on his face.

It was full of approval of his own methods.

"That bastard still hasn't replied to my private message."

Open the private chat interface with Master Lin.

Jiang Tian casually cursed.

Although he didn't know why Master Lin was paying attention to him, he could guess pretty much.

It was simply because of Yan Bingbing's death that he was unable to escape the death penalty.

"You underestimate the power of money."

He scoffed, "Today I'll show you whether your calculations are accurate or the power of money is truly formidable."

Although she already despised him in her heart.

But I also understand the principle that having more friends means having more options.

Moreover, he is a true master who can calculate.

After hesitating for a long time, I sent the other party a message again.

"Why does it feel like Master Lin looks down on me, Jiang Tian? He hasn't replied to my messages for so long."

"Or are you receiving too many private messages and can't keep up with them all?"

"If you see this, please reply. I'd still be happy to be friends with you."

I waited for a long time, but I still didn't receive a reply from Master Lin.

I started to feel a little unhappy.

Given his family's status in Hangzhou, it was often others who shamelessly tried to curry favor with him.

I'm already giving him a lot of face by lowering myself to talk to him.

He snorted coldly.

He muttered to himself, "I hope you won't push your luck."

"In the end, you're just a lousy fortune teller. If someone really wants to mess with you, you'd better watch out."
