At 7 a.m. the next day, a piece of news shocked the entire Sakura Country and even the international community.
Yasukuni Shrine in Sakura Country was burned down again!
Yes, this is the second time that Yasukuni Shrine has been set on fire.
And this time, the damage is much more severe than the previous one.
Alcohol, paint, gasoline, and other flammable substances were detected in the burning debris.
It seems like they were afraid it wouldn't burn clean enough!
It can be said that every place in Yasukuni Shrine that could be set on fire was completely engulfed in flames.
Even the non-flammable walls were forcefully burned with gasoline and other flammable substances.
Yasukuni Shrine was directly turned into ruins!
There is evidence indicating that the arson was committed by people from Xiba Country.
Because there were Xiba Country's characters left at the entrance!
The intensity and ferment of the incident kept escalating.
Upon learning of this, all Sakura Country citizens were furious.
They vented their dissatisfaction online, relentlessly criticizing Xiba Country.
Sakura Country and Xiba Country have never been on good terms.
This incident was even more of a spark.
The netizens of both countries engaged in heated arguments online...
Some extreme individuals even organized protests in front of Sakura Country's official departments, demanding that the authorities capture the arsonist within a day.
...
At nine o'clock in the morning,
"Knock, knock, knock... knock, knock, knock... knock, knock, knock..."
Xu Mo was awakened by the sound of knocking on the door.
Rubbing his eyes, Xu Mo got up and opened the door to his room.
Zhou Qiaoqiao, Yang Jingxuan, An Youyi, and Li Jiaxin, all dressed neatly, were standing at the door, staring at Xu Mo.
Their eyes were twinkling with excitement.
The way they looked at Xu Mo was completely different from usual.
Xu Mo felt uneasy under their intense gaze, and his drowsiness completely disappeared.
He looked at the four people in front of him, utterly confused.
"Why aren't you sleeping in on a morning like this... What's going on?"
The four remained silent, continuing to stare at Xu Mo with excitement.
Xu Mo: "???"
What's happening here?
He discreetly tightened the hotel-provided pajamas and said, "Don't mess around, I'm a decent person!"
"Xu Mo! Stop pretending, we all know!"
"That's right, it's all over the news. Why are you still pretending? Just admit it, Xu Mo."
"You're something, Xu Mo. Your mouth says no, but your body is pretty honest!"
"Why didn't you take us along for such a fun thing!?"
The more Xu Mo listened, the more confused he became.
What on earth are they talking about?
These people are crazy!
Knocking on the door so early in the morning and saying things he can't understand, what's the meaning behind it?
"Look at his innocent little eyes, his acting skills are impressive," Yang Jingxuan said with a smile, squinting at Xu Mo. "Have you ever considered entering the entertainment industry? Your acting skills are so good, it's a waste not to be an actor."
"Seriously, Xu Mo's acting is so natural, he really seems like he knows nothing!"
At that moment, Xu Mo was completely dumbfounded.
He even wondered if he had traveled back in time again!?
"What on earth are you all talking about?"
"Annoying! Still pretending?" Zhou Qiaoqiao reached out and lightly tapped Xu Mo.
Then she took out her phone, found the news about Yasukuni Shrine being burned, and handed the phone to Xu Mo.
"Was it you who set the fire? When did you leave last night? You didn't even bother to tell us."
Glancing at the news on her phone.
Xu Mo became even more bewildered.
He pointed at the news on Zhou Qiaoqiao's phone, then pointed at himself.
"Are you suggesting... that you suspect me of doing this?"
"It couldn't be anyone else but you. I have evidence!" Zhou Qiaoqiao said.
As she spoke, she swiped the screen.
She found a picture at the bottom of the news article.
Once again, she handed the phone to Xu Mo.
"Look, this is the evidence. There's a line of Xiba Country language on the burned ground in front of the entrance of the Yasukuni shrine."
"So what? What does Xiba Country language have to do with me?" Xu Mo expressed his inability to understand.
What kind of evidence is this!?
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qiaoqiao smiled at Xu Mo.
"Did you forget that you used Xiba Country language to insult someone yesterday? Leaving a string of Xiba Country words on the ground at the scene, it's obviously your style. Are you trying to make them fight each other, like dogs biting dogs, right?"
"And also, the Yasukuni shrine didn't catch fire before or after, but on the very first night we arrived, it was set ablaze. It's quite intriguing!"
Yang Jingxuan also interjected at this moment.
"And if it were really the Xiba Country people who set the fire, there's no way they would leave such a string of words at the entrance. Isn't that leaving clues for people? It's as if they're afraid that Sakura Country won't catch the culprit, right?"
Xu Mo: "..."
You know, this analysis is oddly reasonable!
For a moment, he felt powerless to refute.
Because last night, he did indeed do something similar.
The phrase 'insulting Xiba Country' was also uttered by him.
After being stunned for two seconds, Xu Mo still shook his head firmly.
"I didn't do it, really, I'm not that bored, and I don't have the time to burn a stupid restroom."
"Alright, alright, it wasn't you. I understand..." Zhou Qiaoqiao had an expression of 'whatever you say.'
The expressions of Yang Jingxuan, An Youyi, and Li Jiaxin were hardly any different from hers.
They verbally expressed their belief in Xu Mo, but in reality, their expressions completely gave them away.
Xu Mo: "..."
When you're in the right, you don't fear shadows. Love me or hate me!
Anyway, he didn't do it.
He wasn't that bored. Who would run off in the middle of the night to burn a restroom!?
He's not crazy!
At this time, the viewers in the livestream also went into a frenzy upon learning about the Yasukuni shrine being set on fire.
"66666666, it had to be Xu Mo, doing big things without making a sound."
"He did what I've wanted to do my whole life. Xu Mo is awesome!"
"Well, um, this wasn't done by Xu Mo. I can vouch for him. He was with my wife last night."
"Oh, right, right, this wasn't done by Xu Mo. Everyone, please don't spread rumors! Don't cause trouble for Xu Mo, okay?"
"Moderators, if you see anyone spreading rumors about Xu Mo, please kick them out. Thank you!"
"Brothers, protect our side's Xu Mo!"
"..."
Hangcheng City.
Xiaoshan Airport waiting hall.
Han Fei stared at his phone with wide eyes, wearing an expression of disbelief.
Xu Mo had just arrived in Sakura Country yesterday.
Yet, on the same night, the Yasukuni shrine was set on fire.
He wouldn't believe it was a coincidence, no matter what!
This is definitely Xu Mo's doing.
Especially since there was a photo from the scene in the news.
A string of Xiba Country's characters was left in front of the main gate of the Yasukuni shrine...
What stupid thief leaves behind clues after committing a crime!?
This is obviously a setup and framing!
These petty tricks are very much Xu Mo's style. At this moment, Han Fei became even more convinced that Xu Mo was the one who set fire to the Yasukuni shrine!
Han Fei was very troubled.
Couldn't Xu Mo be a bit more discreet?
Even if he waited a couple of days before starting the fire!
