Chapter 1940: Chapter 1053: Seeking Help
Le Huizhen, wearing a bathrobe, kept tapping away at her keyboard in front of the computer, editing the video shot earlier.
Editing it again made her recall the previous terrifying experiences.
Thinking about how there are really ghosts in this world, along with those strange, eerie rules, made her shiver all over.
She thought she must do everything she can to survive, that’s what Le Huizhen thought.
“Ah, I just wonder if the Little Duke has finally come to his senses; otherwise, with my charm, taking down this awkward teenager shouldn’t be difficult at all…”
Le Huizhen glanced down at the bathrobe she deliberately left open and sighed softly.
She had nightmares last night, and it took a Dragon descending to dispel the dreams; now she’s just working her life away.
After staying in front of the computer until her eyes got blurry, she finally managed to edit it into her most satisfactory form.

The door opened, and Tao Yu walked in, casually asking,
“How’s it going?”
“Little Duke, it’s all edited, divided into three versions: one is a short thirty-second video for attraction, another is a five-minute concise version, and there’s a thirty-minute edited version, all as you requested.”
Seeing Tao Yu, Le Huizhen’s eyes lit up. She jumped up from the bed, and her loose bathrobe made the scene quite appealing.
This even made Tao Yu shake his head a bit. It’s not like his disguised identity leaned towards being childish; is this person trying to drive a small horse with a big carriage…
As Tao Yu sat down to review, Le Huizhen took the opportunity to sneak up behind him, casually wrapping her arms around his shoulders while pointing at the computer screen, the opening of her robe almost covering Tao Yu’s head.
“Alright, let’s go with this.”
Tao Yu sighed; this was truly a case of not knowing the vastness of the world…
…
Le Huizhen’s three videos started circulating on major short video platforms, as the incident itself already had a significant impact and global attention, with media coverage from various countries.
When the real footage of the internal situation of the incident appeared, it caused an uproar!
The initial thirty-second short video seemed okay, as many believed it to be a prank.
But as more curious netizens sought out the five-minute version and the thirty-minute edited version, some began to sense something was off.
Dedicated video creators started slicing the video and explaining it frame by frame.
“This looks so fake, like a cheap plasma movie.”
“That tomato juice explosion is too fake.”
“But it’s very creative.”
“They even caught ghosts on camera…”
“Something’s not right. I’ve been to that hotel; that’s the interior of that hotel.”
“Look at the report; is this person the same Chen Jiaju on the newspaper? It shouldn’t be Photoshopped, right?”
“Do you recognize these guys? They’re the young masters of the four big families in Xiangjiang!”
“Real people on screen?”
“AI face swap?”
“Are they crazy? Aren’t they afraid of a lawsuit?”
“…”
As the video continued to spread and netizens from various countries kept digging for clues, more and more details and characters from the scene were gradually uncovered.
More people started to believe in the video’s authenticity!
Even those who didn’t believe in it at all before started to sense something was wrong.
Soon, some survivors who’ve encountered strange events began to appear under related videos.
“It’s absolutely true! Ghosts really exist in this world! We went through it once, and a dozen people died!”
“These things do happen. Maybe not frequently, but if you ask around and learn about it, you’re bound to hear something.”
“Oh my gosh, finally someone exposed it.”
“There’s even on-site footage showing ghosts!”
“Look, here’s some footage I shot during a weird event, though the quality is a bit blurry…”
“…”
Later, more similar videos, real or fake, emerged and also gained significant popularity.
This sparked widespread discussion.
Each country’s official stance varied; initially, they tried to suppress it. But after failing to block it due to Tao Yu’s hacker abilities, they almost unanimously chose to tacitly accept it.
They realized that letting some information out could indeed be a good thing!
Like some powerful countries officially having Ghost Tamers, within some, there are Ghost Tamers who think it’s time to educate the public.
Some even believe this concerns the survival of humanity and that at least the most receptive students and young people should be educated.
They represent the future of humanity.
But in any country, stability is the primary goal, and maintaining the stable operation of society is of utmost importance, which is why there are always many constraints.
And now, with the uncontrollable spread of the video, they chose silent acknowledgment.
However, no official media have commented on it yet, even those known for making fake news pretend the video doesn’t exist, as if nothing happened.
Yet the more it is ignored, the more it makes people feel there’s something fishy, prompting them to investigate whether similar situations have occurred nearby.
Eventually, they discovered that even when they didn’t probe deeply, many weird rumors had surfaced in their city, or at least a nearby city would have one!
It’s like the issue of shootings; in places without gun bans, there are over a hundred shooting deaths on average every day, and as they get used to it, ordinary deaths of one or two people no longer make the news.
