14: Filming anti-trafficking videos for the police has once again gone viral.

Lin Pei was stunned.

Why was the police calling him?

It couldn't be that someone reported him again, right?

Letting out a sigh, he answered the phone.

"Hello..."

The voice on the other end sounded familiar; it was Captain Xu Feng of the Criminal Police.

"Lin Pei, don't be nervous. I'm reaching out because I want to collaborate with you this time."

"The police station needs to record a promotional video from the perspective of a Human Trafficker to popularize their methods and serve as a warning to parents."

"I think that look in your eyes is quite suitable. What do you think? Can you help us record it?"

Hearing this, Lin Pei was displeased.

What did he mean by his eyes being 'quite suitable'?

Did he look like a Human Trafficker?

Just as he was questioning this in his mind, Xu Feng's voice rang out again.

"Of course, it's not for free. Three thousand per video."

Lin Pei shut his mouth.

He absolutely had to help with this.

Promoting the law was a good deed, an act of immense merit.

"Captain Xu, it's not about the money. I'll record it."

How hard could it be?

He had plenty of images of heinous Human Traffickers in his mind.

An hour later, at the Hengcheng Police Station.

A cameraman was filming Lin Pei, while Xu Feng, Zhang Tian, and several other Police Officers stood to the side watching.

In front of the lens, Lin Pei lowered his chin slightly and lifted his eyelids, revealing a sinister smile.

"I am a Human Trafficker..."

The cameraman almost shivered, barely managing to steady the camera.

Holy crap.

This smile was way too terrifying.

Real Human Traffickers weren't even this scary.

Seeing this, the Police Officers on the side had already instinctively reached into their pockets.

Despicable Human Trafficker!

Bring out the pistols and handcuffs!

Xu Feng coughed, signaling everyone to calm down.

This guy was just an actor, not a real Human Trafficker.

But he had to admit, the Young Man's acting was truly excellent.

Watching him arrogantly and complacently explain his various methods of stealing children, no Police Officer could stand it.

That attitude was just too infuriating.

They wanted to send him to the death penalty immediately.

Fortunately, compared to his colleagues, Xu Feng was rational and could control himself.

But as the recording progressed, Xu Feng found his rationality being eroded step by step.

Halfway through the recording, a group of Police Officers swarmed forward and surrounded Lin Pei.

"Vile Human Trafficker, surrender now!"

Luckily Lin Pei ran fast, otherwise he would have definitely been handcuffed.

He stood behind the cameraman.

"Captain Xu, wake up! I'm not a Human Trafficker; I'm helping you record a video."

The cameraman was trembling. "What do you mean he's not? He is a Human Trafficker!"

"..."

Xu Feng snapped out of it.

That seemed to be the case.

The man was helping them, so how did they almost arrest him?

It was all because the Young Man's portrayal of a Human Trafficker was too realistic.

It didn't look like acting at all.

If they hadn't known his background was clean, they would have locked him in an interrogation room long ago.

Xu Feng coughed, put away his pistol, and signaled everyone to disperse.

"Sorry, Xiao Lin. Your acting was too good, I couldn't help myself for a moment."

"It's fine now, continue."

Lin Pei's temples throbbed.

Lately, he felt like his acting skills were exploding, becoming a bit hard to restrain.

But he had already deliberately held back.

After all, although Human Traffickers were full of evil and deserved to die, they didn't look that heinous on the surface.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead.

If he hadn't held back, he estimated he would have been executed on the spot.

Looking at the reaction of those Police Officers just now, they really would have done it.

It wasn't an exaggeration at all.

Lin Pei gave Xu Feng a polite smile.

"Captain Xu, how about just letting the cameraman stay to record with me, and then you guys can take a look when it's finished?"

"If you're not satisfied, I'll re-record it until the police are satisfied."

Xu Feng thought this suggestion was good.

If they stayed any longer, there was no guarantee they wouldn't actually handcuff him later.

Anyway, there was a script, and they could just reshoot specific parts if there were issues.

Besides, the video was already half-finished, and Lin Pei's acting was flawless; it wouldn't even need editing.

"Alright, then we'll head out. Call me when you're done."

As the group of Police Officers left, the cameraman freed a hand and raised it tremblingly.

"Officer..."

"Can one of you stay behind to protect me?"

This Human Trafficker wasn't just infuriating.

He was also terrifying.

He was currently covered in a cold sweat.

For some reason, despite being a grown man, he was terrified of being abducted by the person in front of him.

And then harmed.

Without the protection of the police, he simply couldn't record.

As for why the police asked him to record this video, Lin Pei had more or less figured it out.

"Cameraman brother, you can just set up the camera facing me, and I'll record it myself."

The cameraman heard this.

"That's a great idea."

"I didn't expect you to be such a nice guy, Big Brother Trafficker, and smart too."

"..."

Lin Pei sneered.

"Cameraman brother, say one more word and you'll find out I'm not a nice person; my temper is actually quite bad."

The cameraman's mouth twitched, and he quickly set up the camera before disappearing without a trace.

An hour later, the video Lin Pei recorded in one take was edited and posted to the Hengcheng Police's official account.

The video quickly gained traction, with comments constantly increasing.

"This is so freaking scary. Why would the Hengcheng Police release a video of a Human Trafficker?"

"You don't understand, person above. This is a form of anti-abduction propaganda."

"Got it. It was probably recorded by a serving Human Trafficker they recruited."

"Definitely. That look, those movements—he's a Human Trafficker through and through. An actor could never pull that off."

"Eh? Isn't this Teacher Lin Pei? He just trended this morning because his acting was too fierce. The trending topic is still up there."

"Holy crap, it really is! I have to say, Teacher Lin Pei is truly amazing. Not only can he play a fierce bandit, but his portrayal of a Human Trafficker is also spot on."

"I'm speechless. Can this really be acted out!?"

"..."

This video was not only scary, but the "Human Trafficker's" face could also make one half-dead with rage.

Emotions need resonance, and good things need to be shared.

Soon, the video was widely forwarded.

Before long, Lin Pei was pushed onto the trending list again, ranked alongside the several trending topics from the morning.

Six of the top ten trending topics were about Lin Pei.

#'Murderer' Lin Pei Records Promotional Video for Police, Playing a Human Trafficker#

#Shock! He's Not a Murderer, He's a Human Trafficker#

#Suggest an Investigation, This Guy Doesn't Look Like He's Acting#

...Lin Pei's vision went dark when he saw the trending topics.

Good grief.

His fame today was a bit too 'infamous'.

He felt completely numb.

That anti-abduction video was not only shared among young people but also appeared in various family groups like the "Liu Family Clan," "Loving Family," and "Old Li Family Group."

A group of elderly people put on their reading glasses and watched the video in horror while trying to convince themselves to stay calm.

For the sake of their precious grandchildren, what did a little anger or fear matter?

As it turned out, they didn't know until they saw it, and what they saw shocked them.

It turned out Human Traffickers had so many tricks.

The key was that this Human Trafficker was too ruthless.

If a child fell into their hands, how much would they suffer? There would be no way out at all...
