Chapter 12: 12

“Did you call the police?”

“Yes, it’s me…”

The police station in Summer was quite reliable. Not long after the call ended, someone came to check on the situation. After confirming that the situation was real, they called for reinforcements to bring over a police car. Yao Dawu and the others were all dejectedly escorted into the car.

As for Xia Xu, as the person reporting the case, after he explained the situation and told them that he was worried about revenge and his identity as a student, the police understood. They quietly made a note and asked him to leave behind his bank account number, then he could go home. After they finished calculating the amount, they would transfer the reward to his card.

‘I don’t know how much money there is, but there should be twenty to thirty thousand yuan, right?’

After returning home, Xia Xu, whose heart was beating fast, laid on the bed and replayed his operation today, expressing his satisfaction.

After successfully hiding behind the scenes, apart from being a customer at Xue Mingjie’s restaurant, he did not even show his face. It could be said that he had made a lot of money without even taking any risks.

With this reward, he would no longer have to live frugally, and he could even use it as a starting fund to make more money from small businesses.

He also obtained another benefit from Zhang Jianmin, the main character of the story—the new plot of «Person About to Die».

[«Person About to Die»:… Zhang Jianmin, who won hundreds of thousands of yuan by coincidence, couldn’t feel happy no matter what whenever he thought about his remaining lifespan. He was numbly indulging himself, spending his days drinking and drinking, causing a lot of jokes in the meantime.

At the same time, Yao Dawu, who was unwilling to lose, came to find him again. Zhang Jianmin was forced to gamble with Yao Dawu, but this time his luck was not good. He lost all the money he had won, even having to give up more than a hundred thousand yuan of his savings.

Fortunately, Zhang Jianmin had also gotten rid of Yao Dawu and the others. Since he was already dying, he didn’t care much about money. He decided to travel before he died, and he signed up for a tour group with his remaining savings.

After reporting his name and leaving the travel agency, Zhang Jianmin wandered around aimlessly. He felt out of place with the pedestrians around him. Unknowingly, he walked to a more and more remote area until he finally arrived near a construction site.

An old man dressed as a construction worker stopped Zhang Jianmin and tried to sell the antiques he had just dug out…

This was a new plot summary obtained from [Main Character: «Person About to Die»], after he had encountered Zhang Jianmin.

This basically confirmed that this kind of special plot character’s destiny could unlock more of the storyline and more relevant characters to the story. This plot would also have a relatively detailed description.

The only thing that made Xia Xu feel helpless was the ellipsis that would appear at every critical moment.

Although he roughly understood that this might be because he hadn’t come into contact with the supporting roles related to that part of the plot, he was still annoyed by the ‘broken’ script.

‘Construction site worker, selling antiques…’

No matter how angry he was, he couldn’t magically conjure more plot summary so Xia Xu could only try to think.

The storyline between Zhang Jianmin and Yao Dawu was of no value to him. According to the logic of a comedy series, this part should be used to make fun of the main character and also lay out the foundation for the rest of the plot.

If one really watched this movie, it could still make them laugh, but in this case, besides letting Xia Xu feel a little lucky that he did not participate in the gamble, he did not receive any substantial help or value from this part of the summary.

Moreover, Zhang Jianmin had been personally reported by him and sent to the police station. Even if he could come out, his gambling capital would definitely be confiscated. There was a high probability that this part of the plot would be over.

The only thing that made him feel that it might be beneficial was the last sentence.

Construction site workers, selling antiques, these two keywords revealed a lot.

Thinking from the perspective of the creator of the movie script, the plot itself should be able to stir the emotions of the audience. The best choice for such a comedy was naturally joyful emotions. If the movie wanted to do this, the plot must fluctuate.

What could be more surprising than an unexpected windfall after losing all your money?

Therefore, the plot of this scene was most likely the kind of plot where people bought antiques and somehow ended up making a huge profit.

He had heard of the old man at the construction site. This was actually a kind of scam. Usually, old men dressed as migrant workers would peddle antiques near the construction site, saying that they had just been accidentally dug out from the construction site, but in fact, they were imitations purchased in batches costing tens of yuan.

Because the threshold of this kind of scam was low, it was extremely common, so many people were deceived. In the end, it gradually formed a word. Those who knew the inside story would understand what was going on once they heard the antiques sold by the old man at the construction site.

Xia Xu guessed that this part of the plot in «Person About to Die» might have played a reverse trick. It was similar to his previous gambling routine. Using the old man at the construction site to create a scene that was almost 100% loss, then used his heaven-defying luck to create a reversal.

For example, the old man at the construction site was actually selling antiques, or that he pretended to sell the fake antiques to only sell the real ones, creating a climax in the plot from there.

If the plot continued to develop in this manner, he would be in a favorable position, and he could earn more money again by going before the main character did.

‘The problem now is that Zhang Jianmin has been sent to the police station, and he hasn’t won any money yet. Will the plot continue to develop as planned?’

Within that few moments of excitement, Xia Xu quickly calmed down.

If he hadn’t interfered with the plot, he could have followed Zhang Jianmin to pick up the scraps, but this was a paradox. If he didn’t report Zhang Jianmin, he wouldn’t receive the reward from the police station. Even if he knew that he could pick up the scraps, he wouldn’t be able to.

It was just that the seller didn’t know the actual value of the antiques, it was not free.

One of them was worth tens of thousands of yuan, while the other was a pie with a very low probability of obtaining it. Thus, even though he saw this part of the storyline in advance, he would still report Zhang Jianmin and the others without hesitation.

Now that the reward was basically in his hands, he finally had the time to consider whether he could gain more benefits.

Now that they were all detained at the police station, even if Zhang Jianmin was released, there was a high probability that the trouble with Yao Dawu would not occur.

This was a far cry from the original plot. It was still a question whether they would encounter the old man at the construction site.

Moreover, there was another problem. Tomorrow was Monday, and he would have to go to class again. It was definitely difficult to take leave from high school. Unless he gave up his studies or found a way to take a break, it was basically impossible for him to follow Zhang Jianmin and learn about plot development.

‘It’s a shame that there are no detective agencies in the country. Even if there are, I have no way to contact them…’

Xia Xu was helpless.

He was not willing to give up Zhang Jianmin, the main character of the storyline, who could let Xia Xu gain benefits by following him, but he was not willing to give up his studies for the sake of money.

The first idea for his flawless clone was naturally to find someone to help him, but he couldn’t just randomly find someone on the street to tail him. His original host didn’t have any close friends or family that he could trust.

It was difficult to do anything alone.

Of course, there was a way. If he really wanted to find a detective or a paparazzi, he should be able to tell from the status using their potential destiny. If he really couldn’t, he could use his appraisal to find people he could trust and use..
