Luo Dafan had lost his mind! Completely and utterly lost his mind! Since this morning, his nerves had been repeatedly jolted—
First, a pure and innocent little loli had kicked him; then, five faceless individuals had almost destroyed his equipment; and finally, heaven knows how a film titled "Seduction! The White-Clad Woman Plays with the Lives of Five Men" had suddenly turned into...
"You carry the burden, I lead the horse, welcoming the sunrise and bidding farewell to the sunset..." Accompanied by familiar music, the scene from Journey to the West flashed on screen, evoking nostalgic childhood memories.
Yet at that moment, the entire audience turned to stone, the only sign that they were still alive being the occasional rolling of their eyes.
The few thieves exchanged glances, and with a deep sigh, one of them muttered, "Cross and circle! Isn't this clearly a scam?"
"A scam! This must be a scam!" A simple sentence suddenly reminded Luo Dafan.
It seemed as if he had remembered something, and he hurriedly fast-forwarded the player, scanning through each frame carefully.
But the result was, aside from a slightly suggestive scene where Zhu Bajie flirted with Chang'e, there was not a single explicit moment in this series.
The group of female officials from the Kingdom of Women did appear rather… fangirl-ish, but could this be used as evidence of spreading inappropriate content?
"I don't understand, I really don't understand!" In the eerie silence, Officer Li swayed his head in confusion.
In truth, it wasn't just him who didn't understand—the entire room was baffled. Why had a perfectly good Journey to the West turned into Seduction! The White-Clad Woman Plays with the Lives of Five Men?
"Don't look at me, I don't understand either!" Facing Ye Rong's curious gaze, Chen Mo could only wipe his cold sweat in silence.
"I get it!" In that fleeting moment, a middle-aged man suddenly slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "Isn't Guanyin the White-Clad Woman? And aren't Tang Seng and his disciples five men? So… sin, it's all sin!"
"Holy crap! This works?" This time, the entire audience collapsed in unison, and Luo Dafan spat a mouthful of blood onto the screen.
Without a care for the damaged property, Officer Li had already started to tear up, staring helplessly at the sky, feeling as if thunder was striking from above—Oh heavens! Oh earth! This was undoubtedly the most powerful clickbait title in history!
"Wait, then what about this next film?" Amidst the shock and confusion, someone mumbled, and instantly, everyone turned to look at the second DVD in Luo Dafan's hand.
"Where to Go? The Three Weak Women Trapped by 105 Strong, Wolfish Men"… Honestly, this title was even wilder than the first, and the CD explicitly noted, "A beauty stepping out of the bath, provocative scenes to tantalize your nerves."
"Do you want to watch it?" Before Officer Li could ask, dozens of onlookers nodded in unison, the flames of gossip burning brightly.
"Then let's watch it!" Luo Dafan, no longer concerned with the previous disruptions, hurriedly inserted the disk and tremblingly started the player.
A few seconds later, a familiar tune immediately played, so familiar that everyone could sing along—"When it's time to act, act! Charge boldly through the nine provinces!"
Bang! Luo Dafan slammed his head onto the table, seemingly ready to go down with the computer.
Many viewers started to pull at their hair in frustration, and Officer Li, still tearing up, suddenly asked in confusion, "Wait a minute! Is there a scene with a beauty stepping out of the bath in this series?"
"Pan Jinlian!" Luo Dafan suddenly jumped up, angrily shaking his fist. "I counted it clearly before, Pan Jinlian bathed six times in three episodes!"
"Damn!" The audience rolled their eyes in unison, thinking to themselves that this guy really was perverted, remembering the exact number of times someone took a bath.
"So, does anyone want to continue watching? I still have a few more films!" The next moment, Officer Li cleared his throat, awkwardly saying, "Don't misunderstand! I'm investigating a case, and this is to clear Xiao Chen's name!"
Well, no matter the reason, the movie appreciation session was about to continue!
For the next ten minutes, with DVD after DVD playing, and title after title appearing… everyone was in sync, rolling their eyes, their survival instincts kicking in as they realized they couldn't escape—
"The Honey Bee Keeper and the One-Armed Beast Tamer's Passionate Performance of Incestuous Chaos", was that The Return of the Condor Heroes?
"Regret and Tears, The Daughter-in-Law's Suicide and the Father-in-Law's Tears", was that Emperor Tang Ming and Consort Yang?
"That Night's Madness, I Stole My Sister's Lover", was that Cinderella?
By the end, several gamblers had already started betting on who could guess the content of the DVDs based on their titles...
At this moment, forget the tearful audience, even Chen Mo felt dizzy!
Damn it, how could Nono's phone be wasted on communication? This phone should be writing novels instead, it's capable of coming up with such blood-pumping titles!
But the problem was, while Chen Mo knew the truth, the others did not.
And because of this, many people started to look at him with admiration, as if a tidal wave of respect was rising.
In fact, a website editor just so happened to arrive for registration and directly invited him, "Mr. Chen, come work part-time for our website tomorrow! I bet that if we put your titles on the homepage, the click rate will increase by at least 30%!"
What could he say? Chen Mo helplessly blinked, suddenly feeling like it was time to retreat. Without waiting for the editor to mention the salary, he turned to Officer Li, "Old Li, everything's clear now, if there's nothing else…"
"There's nothing! Nothing else!" Officer Li instinctively shook his head, but a few seconds later, he suddenly paused, then said, "Wait! There's one more thing, Officer Mu Yun said… uh, she's here!"
Almost simultaneously, a soft knock on the door echoed, and amidst the curious gazes of the crowd, Officer Mu Yun appeared at the door, dressed in her uniform.
No matter the situation, this female officer's expression always seemed empty, yet with an indescribable coldness. For example, just her simple appearance made several air conditioners feel useless…
"Mr. Chen, hello!" With a lack of emotion, Mu Yun gave a slight nod, her tone flat as though playing a recording, "I need to talk to you about Xun'er, because your daughter…"
As she spoke, her gaze briefly fell, contemplatively observing Xun'er.
Seemingly surprised, tears began to gather in Xun'er's eyes, as if they would burst at any moment.
"Good girl, don't cry!" Chen Mo paused for a moment, then quickly hugged her, softly comforting, "This aunt only catches bad guys, Xun'er doesn't need to be afraid…"
But before he could finish, Xun'er suddenly wriggled out of his embrace, stumbling over to Mu Yun, then, with surprising skill, wrapped herself around her like an octopus.
Under the odd gazes of the crowd, the little loli gazed up at Mu Yun, her tear-filled eyes suddenly brightening as she called out, "Mama!"
Bang! Officer Li, who was walking over, stumbled and bumped into the corner of the table.
The dozen or so residents registering for household accounts wiped their cold sweat in unison, looking as though they would faint at any moment.
In fact, even Mu Yun, who was usually expressionless, seemed a little stunned at the call…
"Well! That's powerful!" In the eerie silence, Ye Rong's sweet voice suddenly rang out, "Dear little Mo Mo, don't you think you need to explain something?"
"You ask me, I ask who?" At such a critical moment, Chen Mo knew he couldn't back down, so he immediately lifted his head fearlessly.
The two stared at each other for a moment, and Ye Rong finally grumbled, bending down to hold Xun'er and asking, "Good girl, are you sure you're not mistaken? Maybe this Aunt Mu just happens to look like your mother…"
"No, Xun'er is not mistaken!" Pouting in frustration, Xun'er suddenly grabbed Mu Yun's sleeve, "Mama has a red mole on her right hand… right here!"
In that instant, with the appearance of the small red mole, the office went completely silent.
Ye Rong stiffened for a moment, then courageously furrowed her brow and looked at Mu Yun, "Officer Mu, could it be that you really are…"
At this moment, dozens of eyes turned in unison, all focused on Mu Yun, waiting for her answer.
But in the midst of such intense anticipation, Mu Yun remained silent, as though she hadn't heard a thing.
It wasn't until much later that she slowly shook her head and replied flatly, "I don't know! I don't remember anything from the past!"
"Damn! Could it be this dramatic?" If Chen Mo hadn't been sitting in a wheelchair, he probably would have collapsed.
Are you kidding me? What era is this, and they're still playing the amnesia trope,
