108: Chapter 108 is really not for the sake of the show.

At six o'clock in the morning, the small courtyard was silent.

The Production Crew and guests had not yet awakened from their slumber.

Until a violent knocking on the door rang out!

"Open the door, police!"

"..."

Director Zhang and the Production Crew stumbled out, sleepy-eyed, to open the door; the moment they saw the group of uniformed police officers standing outside, they instantly became fully awake.

"Officer, wh-what is going on?"

Director Zhang stood at the front, asking tremblingly.

The police officer scanned the surroundings but did not answer immediately.

At this time, the guests had also tidied up a bit and walked out of their respective rooms.

Almost everyone had a look of confusion on their faces, except for Young Master Jie.

Although Young Master Jie had appeared nonchalant and righteous when arguing with Lin Xiao last night.

Yet, while sleeping at night, he had been plagued by nightmares.

Having done so many shady things, deep down, he was still afraid.

He was afraid that everything he currently possessed would be lost.

Therefore, when he saw the police, he assumed that Lin Xiao had really reported him, and his first reaction was panic.

"Which one of you called the police?"

The leading police officer asked sternly after observing the scene.

"Wh-who called the police?"

Director Zhang and the Production Crew exchanged glances, then turned to look at the other guests.

Seeing that everyone had a confused look, he asked in a low voice: "Officer, is there some mistake? We are filming a program here, nobody called the police."

"If this is the Production Crew, then it's correct. The person who called the police said they found a corpse by the fishing pond!"

The police officer frowned, appearing somewhat displeased.

Finding a corpse is a major matter, and a significant number of personnel had been dispatched.

If someone had made a false police report, they would be dealt with severely.

Everyone was stunned by the words "found a corpse" and stood frozen in place for a long time, unable to speak.

Only Lin Ran caught the keyword first, speaking up weakly: "Um, my brother went fishing last night, and it seems he still hasn't returned..."

The Production Crew scanned the surroundings and exclaimed: "Cameraman Li hasn't returned either!"

Director Zhang then slapped his forehead: "That must be it! Officer, please wait a moment, I will take you to find him right now!"

As he spoke, he didn't forget to wink at the Production Crew, telling them to hurry up and turn on the Live Stream Channel.

If Lin Xiao really discovered a corpse, this would be a bombshell!

He had to catch this massive wave of traffic!

Furthermore, even if Lin Xiao had made a false report, such personal behavior had nothing to do with the Production Crew anyway.

Through online hype, it could still bring heat to the program.

And so, the entire Production Crew set off in a grand procession.

As soon as the Live Stream Channel was turned on, many viewers rushed over from Lin Xiao's side.

[No way? They really called the police!]

[Is this really not a stunt?]

[I told you that corpse looked real at first glance, but some people just wouldn't believe it.]

[Isn't it because that kid's behavior was just too bizarre?]

[Haha, true, someone who can keep fishing while guarding a corpse is really hard to describe!]

The group quickly found the pond and saw that familiar figure by the edge of the pond.

"A-Xiao!"

Lin Ran was already worried, so she immediately took a few quick steps, wanting to see what exactly had happened.

But as soon as she got close, she saw Lin Xiao squatting by the pond, casually poking at something with a tripod.

Looking in that direction, she saw a worn-out suitcase placed there, with a piece of a severely decomposed arm dangling from the gap.

"Ah——"

A shriek echoed through the clouds.

If not for the Production Crew supporting her from behind, Lin Ran would likely have fainted on the spot.

The others followed one after another and also saw the scene before them.

"Th-that wouldn't really be... ugh!"

"Oh my god, this smell, ugh!"

A cool morning breeze blew by, and everyone smelled that foul stench.

One by one, they quickly ran to nearby trees and couldn't stop vomiting.

The police officer saw Lin Xiao, who was still poking at the corpse, and his expression was also very ugly.

[Ahhhhh, how is there actually a corpse?]

[Could it be that Lin Xiao killed someone and dismembered the body here? That's too terrifying!]

[The person above clearly didn't watch the stream last night; this corpse was just fished out of the water by Lin Xiao!]

[People who are familiar with homicide cases know that if this person was killed last night, it's impossible for them to be this decomposed.]

The comments were scrolling frantically.

Usually, there aren't many people online this early in the morning, but the content of this Live Stream Channel was just too explosive, and within a short while, tens of thousands of people flooded in.

The Cameraman following Lin Xiao was also woken up by the surrounding noise.

Slowly opening his eyes, the first thing that came into view was the suitcase in front of him and that arm.

"Mommy!"

The tall and sturdy man let out a shriek like a little girl.

With a leap, he hid behind a tree.

Unlike the dimness of last night, under the sunlight, the appearance of the decomposed arm looked even more real.

Not to mention those present, even some of the viewers in the Live Stream Channel vomited.

"Unauthorized personnel, leave the scene immediately!"

The police officer leaned down to take a look, immediately called his colleagues over, and dispersed the unauthorized personnel present.

The surrounding area was also cordoned off with police tape.

The Production Crew and guests were all taken not far away.

Since a corpse was found here, they were all suspects and could not leave.

Everyone sat on the rocks like that, their expressions not looking very good.

Even Yan Sen and He He, who were usually responsible for setting the mood, remained silent for a long time.

This kind of thing could not be joked about, nor could it be discussed casually; the impact of saying the wrong thing was too great.

Lin Ran originally wanted to ask Lin Xiao what exactly was going on, but just as she wanted to speak, the image of the corpse appeared in her mind, making her stomach churn incessantly, and she could almost vomit again just by opening her mouth.

The only one who felt relaxed was Young Master Jie; upon learning that the police were not there to arrest him, he was able to heave a sigh of relief.

He Xiaomei had also been zoning out, but seeming to think of something, she took out her phone and started tapping away.

Before long, speculations about Lin Xiao and the corpse surged onto the hot search list online.

And they were all negative news.

Things like "Young Master of the Lin Family Discovers Corpse," "Young Master of the Lin Family Suspected of Murder," "Young Master of the Lin Family is a Jinx."

He Xiaomei wasn't any kind of public figure, so she didn't care about that much; she only remembered the annoying face of Lin Xiao from the past two days.

Now that she finally had a chance to smear him, she wouldn't let this opportunity pass.

About an hour later, the police officer from earlier stepped out from the police tape and walked straight to Lin Xiao.

"Are you the one who called the police?"
