"Play back the last phone call Xu Mo just made!" Song Yixue's urgent voice rang out in the room!
The staff immediately did as instructed.
They brought up the previous footage.
Song Yixue's gaze was piercing.
She didn't want to miss a single frame or second!
According to Song Yixue's request,
they played through it at double speed the first time.
She frowned, having them slow it down to 1.5x speed.
The earlier details about the extortion could be skipped entirely.
The key was the latter half!
Before long, Song Yixue indeed discovered the trickery!
She only kept the last third of the footage.
The playback speed was returned to normal!
She continued listening to the audio within.
Song Yixue analyzed it all calmly.
Her biggest advantage here
was that no one could disturb her.
After thinking it over for a bit more!
Song Yixue's attention fixed on the segment where Xu Mo was tearing clothes.
There was no video, only audio!
It was certainly impossible to determine anything from that.
Yang Jingxuan's shrieks were very natural.
Her reactions were also very fitting.
But upon further analysis,
that was not actually the case!
Looking at it from Xu Mo's perspective.
If he really wanted to openly defy the police and extort the show,
would he have Yang Jingxuan say so much nonsense?
There were too many suspicious points.
Putting herself in his shoes.
If she, Song Yixue, were truly kidnapped by kidnappers.
And could face having her clothes torn at any moment.
She definitely wouldn't dare say
too much nonsense when the kidnappers were tearing her clothes!
After all, words could contain coded phrases.
To provide clues for the police
and narrow down the scope!
Or she'd be certain the kidnappers wouldn't actually harm her,
and directly reveal the location!
To let the police swiftly raid and surround the place.
But she hadn't found any traces of such
in Yang Jingxuan's words.
It just made Song Yixue feel Yang Jingxuan was simply playing around.
No matter how realistic her tone, or how deferential,
it couldn't change the playful essence!
Combining the signs Xu Mo had displayed earlier.
The microwave explosion
hadn't harmed anyone.
It was just to mock and fool the investigative team members.
Song Yixue, who wasn't being led on, smiled charmingly.
"Well played, Xu Mo!"
"You got the actress the show prepared for you to cooperate and act with you!"
"Impressive!"
Everyone else instinctively thought Yang Jingxuan was on the show's side.
No matter what, she wouldn't betray the show.
But they had fallen into misunderstanding from the start.
Goddesses can also be swayed and switch sides when they see a handsome guy!
Song Yixue waved her hand, having her female secretary bring over the show's spare phone.
She dialed the number.
At the same time on the other end—
Buzz--- Buzz----
The phone on the table vibrated.
Knowing their massive plan had failed,
Yang Jingxuan wore a bitter melon face.
She curled up to one side, hands hugging her legs.
Seeing Xu Mo not answering the phone,
she woodenly reminded,
"Xu Mo, your phone rang."
"I heard it, I'm not deaf,"
Xu Mo was busy pondering other moneymaking plans.
Since they dared to call,
it meant the extortion plan had failed.
But that was to be expected.
With that big oaf of a partner Yang Jingxuan overacting as she did.
Even an idiot could guess it was fake after a while.
It was just a matter of time.
Reacting quickly after five minutes or slowly after five minutes.
Lies would inevitably be exposed.
But Xu Mo didn't care.
The phone rang again for a while.
Yang Jingxuan's noble nose wrinkled, impatiently getting up.
Wanting to go turn off that annoying ringtone!
Just as she was about to hang up,
she caught a glimpse of the caller ID from the corner of her eye.
It displayed none other than Song Yixue's name.
Yang Jingxuan was completely baffled, mumbling, "Why is the executive director calling?"
Her words caught Xu Mo's attention.
"Don't rush to hang up. Who did you say called?"
"The executive director, Song Yixue,"
Yang Jingxuan instinctively replied.
Damn!
It wasn't the show's host, Lin An'an.
But come to think of it.
This director's name was pretty artsy.
Just her name gave off a sense of artistry.
For that name alone,
Xu Mo wanted to chat with her.
It'd help pass the time.
He held out his hand, "Give me the phone."
Yang Jingxuan didn't know what Xu Mo was up to.
But she obediently did as told.
The call connected.
A bewitching mature woman's voice sounded in his ear.
"Hello? Is this Xu Mo?"
"It's me."
Xu Mo smiled.
"Shoddy extortion methods."
Song Yixue ridiculed.
Xu Mo shrugged, "Next time you guys want to mess with me, please send a smarter actress. The one you prepared has a few screws loose."
Upon hearing this—
Yang Jingxuan glared at Xu Mo.
This jerk called her stupid again!
She wanted to pounce at him, baring her claws.
Xu Mo held up a forefinger at her.
Yang Jingxuan understood and gradually lost her temper.
They could've extorted 10 million yuan.
But it seemed she had botched it.
Saying she was stupid didn't seem unreasonable.
"Did you call to chat with me?"
Xu Mo joked.
"Do you think I'm that bored?"
Song Yixue said flatly.
Xu Mo: "Let's cut to the chase then, I'll hang up if there's nothing else."
Song Yixue: "You don't actually want to become a real criminal, right?"
Xu Mo: "No shit, am I sick? Who likes committing crimes for no reason? I've got your show to thank for turning me into a criminal!"
Song Yixue: "It was improper planning on our part at the outset of the show. I sincerely apologize here! You won't face real pursuit, I assure you of that here! And I'm offering 300,000 yuan in cash as your compensation."
Slapping you then giving you a date,
to make you forget being hit?
There's no such good thing.
Xu Mo: "Too little!"
Song Yixue was stunned for a moment, her pretty fox eyes narrowed slightly.
"How much do you want?"
"10 million!"
Song Yixue was shocked!
As executive director,
she didn't make nearly as much as Xu Mo did in a day!
Song Yixue: "Impossible!"
Xu Mo: "Then I'm hanging up, don't waste my time. I just want to make money now!"
At this time, the show still hadn't completely shut down.
Song Yixue's gaze fell on the number of viewers watching the livestream backstage.
It had skyrocketed to over 30 million!
Just as Xu Mo was about to hang up—
Song Yixue's decisive voice rang out.
"The show can give you 10 million yuan!"
