Chapter 286 Invited To Tea By The Cops. Is The Netbig Film Going To Make A Loss?
It was almost as if Su Yang was forced into the Reincarnation Circus. He saw lions, panthers, fierce bears, and countless other animals, all of which were smiling strangely…
Seeing those smiles, Su Yang’s eyes became distracted and he unconsciously walked toward the circus…
Just as he was about to become addicted, he suddenly jolted out of the trance.
Su Yang’s heart was pounding so hard that it was about to jump out of his throat. The trance was too terrifying.
‘What the hell is this Reincarnation Circus?’ Su Yang felt like it was extremely dangerous. It was probably even more dangerous than a killer bear.
‘Is it something evil again?
‘And… How did I get this on my hand?’
Su Yang looked down at his left index finger and found that he had an additional tattoo of a crown on his left index finger. The crown was in a style used by western kings. It was yellow and looked quaint but exquisite.
However, no matter how exquisite it looked, it was still a tattoo, wasn’t it?
“Am I going to be judged as a member of some kind of secret society from now on?
‘And a society of outcasts at that…’
‘Nowadays, people would tattoo Peppa Pig on their bodies. Who would still use these outdated designs as tattoos?’
As Su Yang gazed at the crown tattoo, the introduction interface for the circus reappeared. He noticed that the conditions to use this ability was much harsher than the Lucky Disfiguring Brick.
S
Although the Lucky Disfiguring Brick had a long cooldown, this one was only available on the 15th day of the lunar calendar every month.
Su Yang called out an interface and looked at the date. The 15th day of the lunar calendar was the 18th day of this month’s solar calendar. It happened to also be… The day before the end of the Lucky Disfiguring Brick’s cooldown.
“This… everything’s lined up closely together.’
Su Yang felt like it would be interesting… ‘It’s just next week… To be precise, four days away. What exactly could happen during these few days?’
Just as Su Yang was deep in thought, an image suddenly appeared in front of him.
(Heaven’s Eyes) launched, and a scene that Su Yang was incomparably familiar with appeared in front of him. It was the second floor of Villa No. 1 of Longteng Jiayuan. Two middle-aged men in officer uniforms were standing on the scene, discussing among themselves.
“Old Xu, what are your thoughts on this matter?”
Another middle-aged man named Old Xu replied, “You’re asking me what I think of Su Yang, aren’t you?”
The police replied, “Recently, the security guards of Longteng Jiayuan have been returning to the scene of the crime. They mentioned this young man. I’ve also asked my subordinates to bring up his information. To be honest, it’s strange…”
The screen came to an abrupt end here, and Su Yang’s heart was thumping. ‘How did they find out about me?’ However, he really wasn’t worried. When he had been to the scene to kill the head of security, he might have left a little clue that was discovered by someone. This would definitely prove his guilt. However, he used only his special abilities to murder Zhao Xiao and didn’t touch anything with his hands. Even if they turned the place inside out and investigated until the cows came home, they wouldn’t find anything tying the events to him.
‘Even so, I should still make some preparations…’

At Longteng Jiayuan, both police officers continued to chat.
Old Xu said, “Honestly, it’s strange… He was just an ordinary guy a few months ago but he set up his own company and started a student work-study business. Then, all of a sudden, he took over the entire staff of Junqing. That’s how he grew bigger and bigger and made his fortune.”
At this point, he stopped talking and looked at the person next to him. That middle-aged police officer was shocked. “The Junqing Company? The one that caused a lot of racket a while back?”
Old Xu nodded as he whispered, “And Old Lu, you may not know that the Junqing Company was actually the property of the Jiang family.” Old Lu frowned. “Which Jiang family?”
Old Xu pointed his hand upwards. “Is there another Jiang family in Shanghai?”
Old Lu breathed in deeply.
Old Xu looked at the scene and said, “So, when it comes to people in that position and that circle, we’ve got to handle it carefully. We can’t wrongfully accuse a good person just because of suspicion. Also…” He paused. “Relative to this matter, the matter of Longteng Jiayuan’s involvement in the mob is actually a big deal.” Old Lu nodded. “Then let’s make a routine inquiry. Anyway, we’ve checked all the cameras around Longteng Jiayuan, and we haven’t seen him appear. We don’t have any proof that he appeared here during the time of the crime, and naturally, he doesn’t have the means to commit this crime.” Old Xu wondered. “Hmm.”
The next day, Su Yang received a call from the police station early in the morning. They wanted Su Yang to assist with the investigation.
As a good citizen, especially one that was well-prepared, Su Yang was incredibly cooperative. So, he went to the police station early in the morning.
He had originally made all the preparations for the night, but when he went there, he found that the police officer was very polite. It was just a routine questioning where they asked Su Yang what he was doing that night and whether there were any witnesses.
In addition, also asked if he was the person who injured the security guard in Longteng Jiayuan.
Naturally, Su Yang denied everything.
With a law enforcement recorder, the police officer detailed and recorded everything. He also used a piece of paper to get Su Yang to write a statement before asking him to sign it They even poured Su Yang a cup of tea.
After turning off the camera, the two police officers from last night politely sent Su Yang off after he finished his tea. They asked Su Yang not to take offense because they were duty-bound.
They also said that they had actually ruled out any suspicion that Su Yang was the culprit. After all, there was no evidence at all that Su Yang had been to Longteng Jiayuan. However, the security guards somehow thought it was Su Yang’s doing so they had to get him to make a routine statement.
Su Yang actually held an hourglass in his hand and took the opportunity to check the memory of one of the police officers. He found that it was indeed as they said so Su Yang could put his mind at ease.
According to the police officer’s memories, the focus of the Longteng Jiayuan incident had now shifted from murder to a big case involving blackmail. After all, Longteng Jiayuan was too big. It involved pornography, drugs, gambling, many other murders, and other criminal cases.
After leaving the police station, Su Yang walked on the road, feeling that the sun was incomparably bright.
He slipped slowly along the street, looking for a nice looking breakfast shop to have breakfast.
Yes, he was having breakfast at 10:00 in the morning… It wasn’t really too late, but for a breakfast shop, it was almost time to clean up.
The owner of the shop said as he placed two fried dough sticks and a bowl of soybean pudding in front of Su Yang, “Whoa, you’re eating late enough. It’s going to be lunchtime soon.”
Su Yang took it and replied with a smile, “It’s a bit late. I used to eat breakfast every day, but since I’ve been living on my own, I’ve been getting by.” The shopkeeper shook his head. “It’s not good to skip breakfast.” Su Yang lowered his head and drank the soybean pudding. It was a bit salty. “Yes, my parents also said that. Not eating breakfast is bad for your health. I have a relative who got stomach cancer from not eating breakfast and he died later. So now, our family has to eat three meals a day.”
The shopkeeper laughed as he wiped the table next to him. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. The bad thing I was talking about is that I have no business.”
“If you guys don’t eat breakfast, it’s not good for business.”
Su Yang was speechless.
He’s such a realistic boss.
He took a bite of the fried dough stick. It wasn’t very good since it was a bit doughy. Plus the slightly salty soybean pudding… ‘Boss, your business isn’t good because your food doesn’t taste good.’ Although the meal wasn’t good, the money has been paid. Su Yang, who was always thrifty and frugal, decided to continue eating this unpleasant breakfast.
As he ate, his phone vibrated and Little Deeny’s voice sounded in his ear, “Master, it’s Lin Jiali’s WeChat message.” ‘Lin Jiali is looking for me again? Su Yang took out his phone and looked at WeChat while biting into the soft fried dough stick.
Lin Jiali’s message read. (Su Yang. You won’t be my fan anymore.] Su Yang had a puzzled expression. ‘So sudden? Was the news of her fake fans exposed?’
Lin Jiali continued, (I’ll be your fan from now on!]
She said while sending Su Yang kowtow emoji. [Idol, you’re a god). Su Yang replied with a question mark. [?] Lin Jiali said, [I’m going to film a drama for Netbig! Our company’s parent company imposed the job on us and asked us to act in it! Ahhhh! So annoying!)
(But… I’ve read the script, but I don’t see any potential for a hit. Can I really make it big with this drama?]
What could Su Yang say, he could only return one word. (Can.)
Lin Jiali sent another look that was exactly the same as the one she had just sent. (Thank you, big brother!)
Su Yang laughed. ‘I really hope that on the day my identity is revealed, Lin Jiali won’t kill me.’
Lin Jiali said, [Idol, it’s not that I don’t trust you, but do you think it’s going to be just me that will become popular from the drama while the drama itself becomes a huge failure? When I read the script, it’s so cheesy…]
(Do you think our unlucky new boss will make a lousy drama? Heh heh heh.]
[It’s a little exciting to think so.]
[I’m a little excited.) said Lin Jiali as she sent another evil smiling emoji.
The unlucky new boss, Su Yang, was speechless.
Actually, Su Yang felt a little guilty. He really didn’t have confidence in this drama. After all, if he had to choose, he definitely wouldn’t watch this rotten movie.
Su Yang was not in the mood to reply to Lin Jiali so he put his phone down as he thought. ‘I can’t continue being so nervous over this every day, isn’t there a way I can know the result of this drama in advance?’
Thinking about it, Su Yang brightened up. ‘I have Little Hus!
‘If Hus’s (Opportunity Sense) can sniff out good stocks, could he also sniff out whether movies and TV shows would become popular?’
Thinking of this, Su Yang lost all appetite so he hurriedly stuffed the fries into his mouth, drank the soybean pudding, and took a taxi back home.
Arriving home, Su Yang entered the virtual space where he found Little Hus.
Little Hus was still in his storage room, sitting against the wall. It had a virtual interface in front of it, and on the interface was Janet’s picture. It was also holding a drawing board with a pencil in its little edge, staring at Janet’s picture while drawing seriously.
However, it was a pillow that has no talent for drawing so its drawing was painful to look at. ‘Janet, who’s such a beautiful woman in appearance despite her male gender, looks like a monster in its drawing. The problem was that it doesn’t even notice, and is enjoying itself.’
Su Yang felt like Little Dagger Girl might have contributed to this.
It was because Dagger Girl was sitting beside Little Hus, clapping her hands in an exaggerated manner as she watched it draw. “Wow! Little Hus! Your drawing is great!” Every now and then, Little Hus would have a smug grin on its face.
Dagger Girl was blind! She couldn’t see! ‘Little Hus, what are you so proud of! She’s obviously just saying that to make you happy!’
So Su Yang walked over and lifted Little Hus before saying to Dagger Girl, “Lend me your Little Hus. Dagger Girl, wait here for a moment.” Dagger Girl was a good girl so she replied in a soft voice, “Okay, Brother Su Yang.”
Pulling Little Hus into the living room, Su Yang placed a pile of information related to the ‘Fighting The Buddha’ movie in front of it, then asked, “Help me see if this project can make money.”
Little Hus climbed on the table and sniffed for a long time, then frowned. “Su Yang, this project of yours… There seems to be a problem.”
Su Yang’s heart thudded. ‘A problem? No way…
‘Don’t tell me I’m going to lose money on a 5 million yuan project!’
