I Am A Prodigy Chapter 129
Advertisement
Murder?
Dismemberment?
Psychos?
Right at the start, there were numerous sensitive words. It made the viewers feel that it was something entirely different.
The opening atmosphere seemed to be even creepier than Grave Robber's Chronicles.
"From the perspective of God, these people are our brothers, sisters, parents, and children. I will pull them into my embrace, like a spike of cacti closing their buds, then spread the darkness from my palm to the world…" Ye Lingchen's voice carried a mysterious allure, as though narrating facts, yet at the same time it sounded like a story. "The 10 weirdest murder mysteries: slave in the cellar, spirit of the rainy night, human-skinned scarecrow, legend of the pervert, the asylum, snowman limbs… which is scarier? Which is more mind-blowing??"
"Now then, are you ready? I'll give you another 10 seconds to ready your hearts as the story I'm telling is called—The Ten Deadly Sins!"
The avant-garde introduction thoroughly pierced the hearts of the listeners. Within that dark screen, a huge door seemed to have opened, and within the door were murderers after terrible murderers. 10 seconds later, all of them would seemingly present themselves to the listeners right before their eyes.
Excitement, nervousness, fear, worry. Countless complicated feelings went through their minds. At that moment, quite a number of them felt an urge to run away. They dared not listen on, but their curiosity overpowered them and kept them there.
"CEO Wang, the story Y-God is telling this time… is murder mystery?" Song Qian asked softly, his throat quivered.
He had a strong intuition that this time, he gambled correctly again.
CEO Wang shook his head. Song Qian chose to just remain silent. His eyes staring straight at the screen pursed his lips and held his breath.
He was hooked.
What Ye Lingchen narrated was a murder mystery. However, it was different from the regular murder mysteries. He picked extremely unique cases. These cases were varied, a mixture of brutality, smarts, eccentric, and horror. Most importantly, they fully showcase the darkness in human nature.
The allure of a mystery novel was on par with that of horror stories. That was because both of them could capture the hearts of the readers!

Within the stream, silence went on for 10 full seconds.
Although it was a short time, it felt as though a century had passed.
Within the 10 seconds, countless viewers felt a multitude of thoughts in their heads, crashing against them in continual waves.
Unsurprisingly, there were very few comments on the screen.
"Chapter one, a slave in the cellar. Abandon hope all ye who enter—Dante.
In the year 2000, the sophora flowers were blooming in the outskirts of the capital. Clumps of sophora flowers hung low, their strong fragrance lulling people to their dreams. Two laborers laid down by the riverbank then fell asleep with their shoes as a cushion. After their afternoon nap, storm clouds rolled over from the distance, bringing along with it a bone-chilling cold. It suddenly started snowing. Snowflakes and the sophora flowers fluttered in the air along with the wind.
The laborers shivered. They were discussing the previous winter: Last year's winter was cold, so damn cold. My hands were frozen, feet were frozen and my ears were frozen too. That's right, my hands were frozen, feet were frozen, but my ears weren't frozen. Do you have a hat? I have no ears!"
The stream showed a single black screen and observed by over a million viewers, yet it was deathly quiet.
Everyone was instantly pulled into the story.
With just a few words, together with Ye Lingchen's intentional lowering of his voice, everyone in front of their screens felt an unexplained chill passing through their very soul.
A thirst for blood, a sudden rush, a mystery.
Everyone had a feeling that this story would be a lot more exciting than Grave Robber's Chronicles!
At that moment, they all felt as though they were personally at the crime scene. They followed through Ye Lingchen's descriptions and discovered clues after clues, slowly approaching the truth.
At the same time, along with the deductions, they felt closer and closer to the criminal's heart. Be it the maniac's approach or the maniac's thought process, it sent a chill down to the viewer's spine.
"Due to the dim light, the screen seems blurry. The person behind Miss Anqi had only revealed half a head and it was covered by Miss Anqi's hair. It was difficult to tell the hairstyle and body features apart. Su Mei zoomed in a hundred times on the screen. Using the computer's image processing, the results showed that the person wore a helmet…"

Finally, the truth was beginning to surface, they had found a trace of the murderer and the victim.
"Hua Long walked up and gave a sideways kick. The iron door was not locked. It swung open with a clang, then slowly swiveled back. Through the door's opening, everyone could see a person laying on the ground! A gigantic person! To be accurate, a huge corpse…"
However, following the investigation, they instead found the corpse of a witness. The case seemed to be making even less sense.
The story sent everyone's heart racing. They desperately wanted to know what happened. Where was the kidnapping and rape victim Miss Anqi located? What was her condition?
"Today's stream will end here. I will see you at the same time tomorrow. Thank you for listening."
Ye Lingchen's ending speech finally pulled the immersed viewers back into reality.
[Damn! Please no, don't do this. You have to at least finish up the first case!]
[F*ck! Y-God, you've changed. How am I going to sleep tonight!?]
[That's right, I'll send you a rocket. Can you please continue? If one is not sufficient, we'll all pool our money to get more for you!]
[That's too scary. I suddenly realize that the spirits in Grave Robber's Chronicles are nothing compared to humans!]
[That's right, I think so too. A lot of times, the real demon is mixed within us humans!]
…
The entire stream broke into a ruckus.
'The case was almost solved, yet you stopped it right there. That's just too much of a cliffhanger.'
Despite being faced with the crowd's pitiful wails, Ye Lingchen heartlessly turned off the stream.
Huyu Headquarters.
"This Y-God… was it that hard to just continue a little longer? At least let us know what happened." muttered one of the employees.
Meanwhile, Song Qian nodded in deep thought. "That's just too cruel. He's doing it on purpose."
"Guys, how did the murderer pull it off?" Wang Yuan voiced out his question as well.
They were still immersed in the story, to the point that they started a discussion right there on the plot of the story.
10 minutes later, Wang Yuan finally came to a realization, 'F*ck, why am I discussing this here? I need to see the statistics!'
He immediately roared, "Statistics! Quick, get Y-God's statistics!"
Although he felt that The Ten Deadly Sins would perform spectacularly, he could only be fully at ease after confirming the data!
"CEO Wang, the statistics are here!" Little Zhang rushed in with a form.
"Yesterday's peak online activity was at 1,210,000 users. Today's peak online activity was at 1,250,000 users. In between, there was a loss of 55,000 users."
"Hahaha, as expected of Y-God!" CEO Wang's face was flushed red. Y-God's peak viewer count did not go down, but had grown instead!
That could be considered a miracle.
"The rate of loss was slightly higher than Candle Blowing Ghost," said Song Qian with a slight frown.
"That's understandable. After all, it's filled with all sorts of horrifying crimes. Not many would dare to keep watching. Furthermore, these stories are not child friendly. The loss of around just 50,000 viewers was already a wonderful result!"
CEO Wang was excited. He waved his hand. "Y-God is a talent! No wonder he did not even look at our script. This is another masterpiece. The Ten Deadly Sins' potential is by no means lower than that of Grave Robber's Chronicles. We must continue to promote this!"
"At the same time, Song Qian you must maintain a good relationship with Y-God. Try your best to fulfill his wishes. He's the living attraction of this platform!"
