Chapter 215: Chapter 215: A Naturally Cruel and Bloodthirsty Person
The streamer’s channel indeed went viral, but even more on fire were the discussions online.
After witnessing the scene of a man attacking a child in the livestream, a netizen uploaded the screen-recorded video online.
They tagged the rich kid from before, wanting him to confirm if it was his nephew who canceled from the kindergarten study tour.
The rich kid didn’t respond immediately; about half an hour later, he finally made a tardy entrance, and his first move was to post on Weibo.
"Enough said, my brother and sister-in-law just saw the video online. They’re already preparing gifts to express their gratitude, it’s truly amazing."
Less than a minute later, he posted another Weibo.
"@Scarlett Jennings, I’m convinced, from today onwards you are my goddess."
Although everyone knew the "certain mystical actress" he mentioned was Scarlett Jennings, his blatant name drop and tag still had netizens smelling the "True Fragrance Law."
"True fragrance, albeit late."
"I’m not surprised by this outcome."
"Please call her a goddess, okay?"
"Come, kneel, and call her daddy!"
"Come, kneel, and call her daddy!"
"Come, kneel, and call her daddy!"
While netizens were having fun spamming, Scarlett did not immediately receive the news online and naturally didn’t see the tag from the rich kid.
After the airport attack incident erupted, the police took it very seriously, and the criminal was arrested immediately.
Because Scarlett Jennings had predicted the kindergarten children’s calamity in advance, the police sent officers to the Jennings Family to take a brief report from her.
Although people online speculated about the revival of spiritual energy and the undying mystical arts, the police wouldn’t believe such things based on a few online comments.
So as a formality, they had to ask to confirm that Scarlett had nothing to do with the knife attack...
After finally seeing off the policeman responsible for the report, another group of people arrived.
Some were parents who canceled their children’s study tour after Old Sir Jiang’s warning, coming specifically to express gratitude after seeing the news online, like the family of the rich kid who posted on Weibo.
These families were all of high status and, although they canceled their children’s study tour plan after hearing Old Sir Jiang’s advice, most did it just out of respect for him without truly believing in such things.
Like the family of the rich kid who posted online.
But when they witnessed the thrilling scene in the netizen’s livestream, everyone was immensely thankful for heeding Old Sir Jiang’s advice to cancel the outing.
Although the children didn’t seem to be physically harmed in the video, they were still kids—such events could shock and even traumatize them.
For this alone, they had to come to express their gratitude.
And another group was parents who picked up their children safely.
Upon finding out that the Jennings Family had sent bodyguards in advance, ensuring the children’s safety through the ordeal, some parents felt ashamed.
They were either materialists or not on good terms with the Jennings Family, and hadn’t taken Old Sir Jiang’s reminder seriously, dismissing it as him being partial to his granddaughter by believing in her nonsensical ideas.
They couldn’t believe anyone could predict a person’s misfortune at a glance.
So, they insisted on sending their kids to the study tour.
But reality was a harsh slap, as today’s event could hardly be explained away as a coincidence.
Thinking about how their skepticism almost cost their children’s lives, these parents were filled with fear.
Aside from fear, they naturally needed to express gratitude to the Jennings Family.
Old Sir Jiang, however, didn’t meet these people directly but had Scarlett host them one by one, not only to make the recognition of who they should really thank clear but also to show some pride.
Scarlett was forced to host wave after wave of people and was almost numb by midday.
Ismeria Jennings had been hiding in a corner of the garden watching Scarlett; she had already heard about the situation online and knew why this wave of people had come.
Although willful, she wasn’t clueless.
Uncle Ming worried about scaring her, only told her about what happened at the airport, but she secretly went online to search more.
Seeing the frenzied man in the video and her little friends running wild in fright, even falling over, Ismeria was stupefied.
Had she disobeyed and gone to the airport, she might indeed have ended up with broken arms or legs, as Scarlett had said.
How painful that would’ve been.
Surely, she would’ve cried to death.
Though she didn’t want to admit it, Scarlett actually saved her.
Ismeria felt conflicted.
This Scarlett... seemed different from what Sister Azura had described.
...
When Scarlett finally checked the news online,
the netizens’ comments were already attacking the knife-wielding "reporter guy" repeatedly.
Although the police report wasn’t out yet, everyone instinctively leaned towards discussing it like another one of those revenge-against-society cases given how common they’d become.
Most were cursing.
Criticizing such people for being powerless in reality, only daring to attack children when seeking revenge, typically bullying the weak.
A minority rationally analyzed the social situation.
Yet, some were astonishingly empathizing with the perpetrator.
"If someone isn’t driven to the edge by society, why would they do something so extreme? In the end, it’s all because of stress."
"These capitalist kids hog all the good resources from a young age; it’s only fair they’re targeted."
"The real blame lies with the kids’ parents, having so much money yet never sharing a bit with the lower class, only exploiting us workers. I’d hate them too!"
"The children aren’t entirely innocent; they enjoyed so many prime resources—what’s a little scare?"
"No one got hurt, so maybe he should be let go? People have it hard too."
Comments with such distorted views left many people utterly shocked.
"My god, what’s happened to the comment section today? Some are actually empathizing with the criminal?"
"What did these kids ever do to deserve this? Let them go? If it weren’t for the bodyguards, that knife might’ve killed someone today!"
"I can’t believe it, why is there a perpetrator-blaming narrative everywhere? Everyone sympathizes with criminals, so who pities the victims?"
Netizens engaged in fierce arguments over these skewed viewpoints. Scarlett furrowed her brows, opened the video again, and upon seeing the knife-wielding man, her gaze instantly turned cold.
She directly retweeted the video, adding a comment.
Scarlett Jennings’ followers had soared several times since the third episode of the Inspiration livestream, now having surpassed ten million.
Among amateurs, she was the first to attract such a massive fan base solely through a reality show.
Most people had set special notifications for her.
The moment Scarlett logged on, netizens bombarded her page; even before they had a chance to exclaim that she finally retrieved her Weibo password, a new post appeared on her profile.
"Scarlett Jennings V: #AirportStabber#
Finding joy in torturing the weak isn’t always due to stress, sometimes it’s because they are innately cruel and bloodthirsty.
The culprit carries many life debts and is already entangled with resentful energy."
