At the same time, the anti-fans in the live stream room were speechless when they saw the officers coming over.
Prior to this, Zhou Tao had really thought that the corpse might have been a false alarm, especially when he heard that it had been fished up by a young man.
Zhou Tao glanced at the young man and then went to the river. Even as the captain, he couldn’t help but be surprised and serious at the moment.
“It’s indeed a corpse!” Zhou Tao squatted down.
He hadn’t brought the forensic doctor over as he couldn’t be sure if it really was a corpse.
After hearing the captain’s words, the officers around him were stunned.
Even though Zhou Tao was a little surprised, he still went forward to carry out his work.
They were all busy with their own work, taking photos and recording videos. At the same time, there were people taking notes at the side.
Zhou Tao asked in surprise as he observed the corpse.
“This… What’s going on? Why is the corpse in a net?”
Mr. Liao, who was relieved to see the police officer, suddenly became nervous when he heard that.
“I’m the king.”
Just as Mr. Liao was about to say his catchphrase, he suddenly realized that it was inappropriate to do so in front of the police officer, and hushed himself.
“Sir, I couldn’t see clearly in the dark and thought Mr. Ye had caught a big fish, so I used a fishing net to catch it.”
At the mention of that, Mr. Liao thought of the first moment he saw the body.
The next second, Mr. Liao shivered again.
“You thought this was a fish?” Zhou Tao was speechless and did not know what to say for a moment.
“Liu,” Zhou Tao said, waving his hand. “Come over and help drag the body to the shore!”
The body shouldn’t be left in the water. Fortunately, there was a net, so it didn’t take much effort for the officers and the others to pull the body to the shore.
Crouching on the ground, Zhou Tao observed the corpse more closely as he stated his conclusion, “The deceased is a male of about 50 years old. Judging from the degree of decay, he has been in the water for at least 4 days. The specific cause of death. I can’t be sure at the moment, and there are no obvious wounds on his body.”
“This…” Zhou Tao looked at the young man in a magic arts robe in the distance in surprise and muttered, “But there’s a fishhook on his chin.”
Upon hearing that, the young man in a magic arts robe in the distance coughed awkwardly.
After all, the hook was still attached to the fishing line.
Seeing this scene, the few fishing pros in the area immediately became anxious.
“Sir, although the body was fished up by Mr. Ye, he is definitely not the murderer!”
“Yes, Sir. Although this young man goes fishing every day, he’s very kind. He doesn’t even want to catch the fish in the river!”
“I can testify for him, Sir. This body was caught by Mr. Ye by accident.”
“This fish… Uh, I mean, I was the one who fished up this corpse. I can also testify for Mr. Ye.”
…
Upon noticing Zhou Tao’s gaze on Ye Chen, the group of fishing pros spoke up for Ye Chen one by one.
Zhou Tao stood up with a speechless expression.
Just as he was about to say something, another officer beside him walked forward and whispered in Zhou Tao’s ear, “Captain Zhou, we received a case 4 days ago. You were on a business trip then. The surveillance footage upstream of Jiang City’s river shows that a middle-aged man accidentally fell into the river from the bridge. The middle-aged man struggled for a while before he disappeared. His body has not been found yet. Moreover, their family has put up a reward of 200,000 for finding his body. The characteristics you mentioned seem to be very similar to the middle-aged man who accidentally fell into the water.”
Hearing that, for a moment, everyone, including Mr. Liao, looked at Ye Chen.
Returning to his senses, Mr. Liao recalled that he had personally told Ye Chen about the body earlier in the day.
At the same time, Mr. Liao also remembered his bet with Ye Chen.
Ye Chen had said that he would catch a giant creature of more than 60 kilograms, and the corpse fulfilled the criteria.
Moreover, Ye Chen said at the time that the giant object was worth more than 100,000, which corresponded to the reward of 200,000.
Normally, fishing up a corpse would be considered an extremely unlucky thing, but not if a reward was tagged to finding the corpse.
It was no different from winning the lottery.
“F*ck! Could this be the effect of doing rituals by the river?” thought Mr. Liao.
At the same time, there was a moment of silence in the live stream room.
After a short silence, the live stream room was once again in an uproar.
At first, a fellow streamer called “East Sea’s King of FIshing” suspected that Ye Chen was acting out a self-directed show.
Now that the police had confirmed that it was a corpse, it was obviously a tight slap to his face.
A viewer commented, “East Sea’s King of Fishing, get out of here. Didn’t you just suspect that our Mr. Ye was acting?”
“Bet these haters didn’t expect Mr. Ye to take all things seriously.”
“Actually, Mr. Ye is also very helpless. He just wanted to fish, but who knew he would accidentally catch a corpse? What’s there to slander him about?”
“East Sea’s King of Fishing or whatever, you’re not going to say that there were professional divers down there who deliberately hung the body on Mr. Ye’s hook, are you?”
“It’s purely for the sake of slandering. I guess he’ll even say that the police are in cahoots with the streamer. What a brainless guy!”
…
In the face of the criticism of the viewers in the live streaming room, the East Sea’s King of Fishing was still as stubborn as an ox. “Even if the corpse is real, how do you explain the rotten fish? I just want to say that you’re all too naive. Do you know why Ye Chen has been unable to catch any fish? It’s because his bait is a special kind of bait. After the fish in the river smell it, they won’t bite the hook at all! The corpse is purely a coincidence!”
