However, those working in the same field would never be satisfied with what they have and try to sabotage their counterparts.

The East Sea’s King of Fishing saw that Ye Chen’s live stream had suddenly become popular and began to feel jealous.

That was why he had been stirring up Ye Chen’s comments section in the live stream.

If he was right, Ye Chen would be banned from the internet.

Even if the East Sea’s King of Fishing was wrong, he wouldn’t suffer any losses.

Regardless of whether the East Sea’s King of Fishing was right or wrong, he could still attract attention and gain popularity in Ye Chen’s live stream.

The words of the East Sea’s King of Fishing made the audience in the live stream room a little suspicious.

Indeed, the day’s incident was a little too dramatic from the beginning to the end.

In this day and age, no one was that superstitious.

How could a rotten fish cause Ye Chen’s fishing rod to move so much?

Soon, the number of gifts in the live stream room was reduced by more than half.

At the same time, some of the new viewers who had just joined the live stream began to question Ye Chen as they had been influenced by the East Sea’s King of Fishing’s comments.

“I also think it’s a little strange. As a fishing streamer, why couldn’t he catch any fish all this while? And today, he caught rotten fish and a corpse. Isn’t this a little too dramatic?”

“Some people are just too easily led by the nose. No matter what, I won’t send gifts to people who resort to petty tricks.”

“Isn’t the fishing level of the East Sea’s King of Fishing 10,000 times better than this guy? I think what the East Sea’s King of Fishing said is reasonable.”

“That’s right. People these days are unscrupulous in order to attract attention and gain popularity. It’s really disdainful!”

“No wonder this streamer didn’t ask the police to deal with it. It’s scripted. I guess Mr. Liao and the others are also actors. They’re really a bunch of clowns!”

…

Under the influence of the East Sea’s King of Fishing, many people began to question Ye Chen. However, most of them were new viewers who had just joined the live stream room.

As for Ye Chen’s old fans, they naturally could not stand it.

“Aren’t you going a little too far by saying this? Do you know how hard the streamer has worked to fish?”

“Yeah. Although Mr. Ye’s fishing skills are a little bad, I can guarantee his character. Besides, he’s never asked us for gifts from the audience!”

“So many people on the shore said that it was a dead person. You guys are watching it from the screen, yet claiming it’s not?”

“Mr. Ye’s fishing skills are definitely bad, all right? You anti-fans only know how to run your mouth. Just shut up!”

“Yes, yes, yes. If you enjoy watching, then watch. If not, then get lost!”

…

Soon, the audience in the live stream room was divided into two groups, and they were arguing non-stop.

There was no longer any joy from before.

But very quickly, the viewers who were still arguing in the live stream room stopped arguing.

They heard the faint sound of police sirens in the distance.

It seemed that the police had really come over.

Alongside the sound of police sirens, several police cars stopped by the shore.

From the police car, several officers in uniform with serious expressions got out.

On the shore, other than Ye Chen, the other fishing pros heaved a sigh of relief when they saw the scene.

Among the crowd, a middle-aged man who looked skinny sneered at Ye Chen. “Mr. Ye, I’m sorry. I called the police just now. After all, it’s better to ask the police to deal with this kind of thing.”

Ye Chen pursed his lips but did not say anything.

Now that the police were here, he couldn’t fish anymore.

Nevertheless, the corpse ultimately needed to be dealt with, so Ye Chen didn’t mind the police coming.

Soon, a middle-aged officer, who was the captain, came over and asked the fishing pros directly. “Hello, may I ask which one of you called the police? And where is the dead person?”

The middle-aged officer who stepped forward was Zhou Tao, the branch captain of Jiang City’s police station.

After all, the discovery of a dead person was not a small case.

As soon as Zhou Tao received the call, he rushed over with his men.

After that, he began to inspect the scene based on his experience.

After that, Zhou Tao set his gaze on the young man by the river.

The young man was eye-catching because while the others were all gathered at the shore far away, he was standing there stupidly, wearing a navy blue magic arts robe.

At the same time, there was a mahogany urn by his feet. It was difficult not to notice him.

There were a few fishing rods beside the young man, and the thing in the net by the river not far away seemed to be the corpse in question.

At this moment, an old man ran over shakily. He pointed at the young man in the magic arts robe and said, “Sir, I was the one who called the police, and the body is over there.”

The captain, Zhou Tao, nodded, then gave a look to the colleague who was responsible for footage collection and continued to speak to the old man.

“Old man, don’t be afraid. Where is the corpse? Did you guys find this body? When did you find out?”

Seeing that the old man was a little nervous, Zhou Tao slowed down his speech and put on a kind expression.

However, it was not the old man who answered this time, but a few of the fishing pros around him.

“Sir, the body is still by the water.”

“Yes, it’s on the shore, right beside Mr. Ye.”

“The body was caught by Mr. Ye. Just now, Mr. Ye even told us not to call the police, afraid that you would scare away the fish.”

…

The fishing pros on the shore were talking one after another, and the officers quickly figured out the situation.

After Zhou Tao analyzed the situation, he looked at his colleagues around him with an expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Zhou Tao thought, “God! The corpse was actually fished up!”

Moreover, that person called Mr. Ye didn’t even think about calling the police when he caught the body, worried that the officers would scare the fish away.

Zhou Tao laughed bitterly, then waved his hand. As he walked toward the corpse, he asked the surrounding fishing pros, “Who is Mr. Ye? ”

With the police at the scene, the fishing pros were emboldened.

As they followed the police officers and approached the body, they answered Zhou Tao’s question.

“It’s the young man in the magic arts robe on the shore.”

“Sir, I can testify that it was Mr. Ye who found the body, but he is definitely not the murderer!”

“The discovery of a corpse is such a big deal. No matter how addicted you are to fishing, you can’t not call the police. Isn’t that right?”

“Yes, yes, yes, Sir, you’re right. You should talk some sense into Mr. Ye, but don’t criticize him too much.”

Zhou Tao revealed a bitter smile when he heard that, thinking, “This group of fishermen are really a group of clowns.”
