Chapter 199: The Entire Internet is in an uproar!

But now...

Reality slapped him hard, making his head buzz.

The state didn't actually seize them.

The state bought them back with money!

And they bought them back overnight, on an emergency basis, with smiling faces!

Watching the news video, seeing the Wangcais being "gently" carried away by police officers in uniform, watching the elderly folks holding their compensation money and grinning from ear to ear, even making peace signs at the camera.

Li Jiajun's mentality collapsed.

Completely collapsed.

"What kind of situation is this?"

"I just wanted to make some money. I just wanted to make life more convenient for everyone, so that the elderly wouldn't have to be so tired when buying groceries."

"How did it... how did it all get taken back?"

Especially when he scrolled to a viral video with millions of views.

In the video, that energetic young man pinned to the ground at the airport, although his face was pressed against the ground, was still stubbornly holding his head up, shouting hoarsely:

"This is just a toy! This is just a toy! I never imagined it was military hardware!"

Seeing this, Li Jiajun felt a mouthful of old blood stuck in his chest, neither going up nor down, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

"These people... these people are actually cutting off all paths of retreat."

Before, he thought that as long as his products were still circulating in the market, the reputation of Li Family Toy Factory wouldn't be ruined.

But now, even the ones sold were requisitioned. They didn't leave him a single drop?

The more he thought, the angrier he got.

The more he thought, the more aggrieved he felt.

He couldn't take this blame!

Absolutely couldn't take it!

If this reputation was set in stone, who would dare to buy his products in the future? How could he transition into a civilian enterprise?

"Slap!"

Li Jiajun stood up abruptly and slammed the table hard, making the teacup on the table jump.

Beside him, Wang Dachui, who was shrinking in the corner like a quail, was startled and almost knelt down.

"No! I have to clarify!"

Li Jiajun gritted his teeth, his handsome face filled with grief and indignation:

"I can't let everyone think I'm an Arms Dealer!"

"I have to plead my case!"

"I have to let the whole internet know where the root of this matter lies!"

At this moment, he felt like the modern-day Dou E, the tragic figure who caused snow to fall in June.

He had to fight back!

He had to throw away all the grievances he had suffered these past few days, all this black pot!

Throw it to the culprit who made him build this thing!

Throw it to the "good uncle" who sent him the parameters and pointed him in the direction!

Li Jiajun nimbly opened the live streaming software, adjusted the camera, and tidied up his slightly messy hair in front of the lens.

Then, he took a deep breath, and his face quickly switched to a bitter expression of someone who had suffered a great injustice.

His finger pressed heavily on the "Start Live Stream" button.

"Buzz—"

As the live stream signal connected.

Millions of Netizens who had been waiting in the live stream room, having heard the news and come to watch the drama, instantly flooded in like a breached dam.

The number of online viewers soared crazily.

One hundred thousand... five hundred thousand... one million... five million!

The server experienced a brief lag due to this massive traffic.

On the screen, the full screen of bullet comments was brushing the same question, dense and crowded, almost covering Li Jiajun's face:

"Streamer! You still say you aren't an Arms Dealer?!"

"Your dogs were taken back by the country as strategic materials!"

"Confession leads to leniency, resistance leads to strictness, Streamer!"

"Factory Director Li, I heard your dogs beat up a regular army in the Middle East battlefield? Is it true or false?"

"Streamer, you are really 'doomed' this time!"

...

Li Jiajun looked at these bullet comments, looking at the screen full of skepticism and teasing, and felt a numbness in his heart.

But he didn't back down.

On the contrary, this further ignited his fighting spirit.

He took a deep breath, brewed his emotions, and made his eye sockets slightly red, looking even more pitiful.

Then, he faced the camera and let out a heart-wrenching, tear-jerking cry:

"family! I've been wronged!"

"This matter... really isn't my fault!"

This shout, full of breath, directly stunned the Netizens who were flooding the screen in the live stream room.

The bullet comments paused briefly.

Li Jiajun seized the opportunity and continued his accusation.

He spread his hands, looking innocent, his tone full of the helplessness and grief of being misunderstood:

"Everyone, judge for yourselves!"

"What kind of person is Li Jiajun? Don't you know yet?"

"I am just an ordinary toy factory director who is plain and simple, only wanting to benefit the people and make life more convenient for everyone!"

"I made the elderly joy to facilitate travel for the elderly."

"I made jump ropes to help everyone strengthen their bodies."

"This time, making the robot dog, I was also trying to solve the pain point of the elderly not being able to carry things when buying groceries!"

Speaking of this, he slapped his thigh hard, his voice suddenly rising:

"But who could have imagined that this thing would be used like this?"

"And!"

Li Jiajun changed the topic, his eyes becoming sharp, as if he wanted to see through the camera:

"Most importantly!"

"This robot dog project, from beginning to end, was not something I wanted to do at all!"

"That was someone pointing me in the direction! Someone forced the parameters into my hands!"

This sounded like an ignorant teenager deceived by a bad uncle.

When the Netizens in the live stream room heard this, they immediately got excited.

"Damn? There's gossip?"

"Someone instigated it? Who?"

"The Streamer is going to drop a bombshell!"

"Is there an expert behind the Streamer?"

...

Looking at the reaction of the bullet comments, Li Jiajun felt that this step was the right move.

He decided not to hide it anymore and directly outed the "culprit".

Anyway, it was Uncle Liu who sent it wrong... No, it was the file Uncle Liu sent him.

Since you sent it, you have to be responsible!

Li Jiajun said to the camera with a face full of grief and indignation:

"It was Uncle Liu!"

"It was our most beloved, most reliable Uncle Liu who represents authority and justice!"

"It was his pit... cough cough, it was his suggestion!"

"At that time, I asked him, I said Uncle Liu, I don't want to make those dangerous things anymore, I want to make something safe, civilian, and definitely won't be requisitioned."

"And then he sent me a file!"

"In that file, it detailed the parameters of the quadruped robot!"

Li Jiajun became more excited as he spoke, even starting to gesture with his hands:

"What high-torque motor, what dynamic balance algorithm, what bulletproof shell, those were all the indicators he gave me!"

"I was wondering at the time, why do you need bulletproof for a toy dog?"

"But I thought, since it was given by Uncle Liu, it must have been carefully considered, it was to defend against wild children!"

"That's why I made it according to that!"

Speaking of this, Li Jiajun looked aggrieved, even carrying a bit of resentment of being let down:

"And the result?"

"The result was that after I built it, he brought people to take it away!"

"And said what I built was military hardware!"

"What kind of situation is this? Isn't this fishing law enforcement? Isn't this setting someone up?"

"family, you tell me, can I take this blame?"

"This is clearly a pit dug for me by that pit-person Uncle Liu!"

Boom!

Li Jiajun's words were like a deep-water bomb, directly exploding in the live stream room.

The Netizens were all stunned.

Dumbfounded.

They originally thought the Streamer was going to explain some technical issues, or sell misery to beg for sympathy.

No one expected this guy to directly point the spearhead at "the higher-ups".

And he even named names, saying it was "Uncle Liu" who gave the parameters, "Uncle Liu" who pointed the direction.

Although most Netizens didn't know the specific identity of "Uncle Liu", old fans who often watched the live stream knew that he was a big shot who often brought military vehicles to "restock", a figure who could talk to the Old General.

That was a true official representative!

Now, the Streamer was openly accusing an official big shot of being a "pit-person" in the live stream room?

And even saying the other party was "fishing law enforcement"?

This...

This guts were too big, right?

This was no longer a question of "being doomed", this was dancing on the edge of death!

For a moment, the style of the live stream room changed suddenly.

The bullet comments that were originally frantically eating melon and teasing instantly reduced by more than half.

The remaining bullet comments also changed from "Hahaha" to a series of "???" and terrified exclamation marks.

"Damn! Streamer, are you crazy?"

"Is this something that can be said?"

"Uncle Liu? Are you talking about that Minister Liu?"

"Streamer, don't say anymore! I'm scared!"

"What did I just hear? State secrets?"

"Streamer, you are going to drag us down with you!"

[a curry person who loves to free ride enters the live stream room]

[a curry person who loves to free ride leaves the live stream room]

The Netizens panicked.

They just wanted to watch some fun, they didn't want to involve their accounts or even their personal safety.

Was this kind of "inside story" involving official big shots something ordinary people like them could listen to?

Some even exited the live stream room as soon as they entered.

However, Li Jiajun did not realize the severity of the problem.

He was now completely immersed in his own logical closed loop.

He felt that as long as he threw the pot to Uncle Liu, he could clear his name.

So, he looked at the camera and continued his "courting death" speech:

"I tell you, this matter isn't over!"

"I must find Uncle Liu to demand an explanation!"

"He can't pit an honest person like this!"

"He has to pay me mental damages!"

Listening to these increasingly outrageous and bold remarks.

The Netizens in the live stream room completely collapsed.

They felt their phones becoming hot, as if special police would break in the next second and take them and their phones away.
