Chapter 626: Emergency PR!

Chapter 626: Chapter 626: Emergency PR!

The drone hovering in mid-air had precisely captured this scene, and when the footage switched, the live-streaming audience was taken aback.

"I can’t believe it, what’s going on? This isn’t some sick joke by the production team, is it???"

"????? Is that a real person or a dummy? Man, I was almost scared to death!"

"So what Jiang Cheng just saw when he fell was this thing? That must have scared him half to death!"

"In these desolate hills, could that really be a dead person?"

"Did they die here, someone from the production team or someone who used to live on the island?"

The live-stream room went into chaos, and someone immediately posted the news of the unidentified body found during the Wilderness Survival livestream online. Although some information was restricted and couldn’t be sent out, it still caused quite a stir online.

Upon seeing the footage on the monitor, the assistant director immediately ran, stumbling and peeing his pants, to report the situation to He Pingzhang.

He Pingzhang decided on the spot to head there personally.

...

At the scene

Just as Jiang Li was coming to her senses and preparing to step forward to investigate the situation, a voice suddenly came from behind her—

"Jiang Li?"

The voice was very familiar, and Jiang Li instinctively turned around to search in the woods.

Sure enough, the next second, a man appeared on the mountain path climbing up, it was none other than Zhao Lang.

He seemed to have stayed awake all night, his long eyes hung with two black bags and his eye sockets were full of red blood vessels, even his originally immaculate and dust-free platinum blonde hair seemed to have lost its luster.

However, the moment he saw Jiang Li, those eyes revitalized with vigor.

"Jiang Li, it really is you!" Zhao Lang exclaimed joyfully as he rushed over and grabbed Jiang Li’s shoulders, examining her carefully, "Are you alright?"

Jiang Li looked at him puzzled, "What could be wrong with me?"

Zhao Lang sighed with relief and returned to normal.

"After we split into two groups that day, I kept searching up the mountain. I turned over the whole mountain cliff and saw no one. I thought about going down to meet up with you, and I searched all night without seeing anyone. I thought..."

Then, Zhao Lang smiled, ran his fingers through his hair, "But thankfully, seeing you’re alright reassures me."

The worry in the man’s eyes seemed genuine, stirring a complex emotion in Jiang Li’s heart.

She wanted to say something but ultimately just gave a light smile and patted the man’s shoulder, "I’m fine, aren’t I?"

"Right, have they found the person?"

Jiang Li gestured with her chin, "Over there."

Zhao Lang followed her gaze, his expression suddenly turned cold.

Heh, if it weren’t for this kid, Ah Li wouldn’t have ended up like this.

Quite annoying.

Jiang Cheng seemed to feel his hostility and shrank his neck, then looked away.

"But," Jiang Li changed the subject, "I actually did run into some trouble."

"What happened?"

Jiang Li reached out and parted the bushes again, "Take a look."

In the lush, verdant underbrush lay a woman’s corpse, torn to pieces.

Zhao Lang narrowed his eyes, well aware of what this body signified.

He immediately snapped his fingers toward the drone, and the staff members promptly pulled the machine aside.

[??? Why is there no video? Could something have actually happened?!]

[Damn, that couldn’t really be a body, could it?!]

[Thinking about it, there have been so many guests coming and going on the island, and quite a few of them haven’t been heard from since. Could they really have met with disaster?]

[Is this show really so inhumane? People die just like that, and they don’t even report it?]

[What is this? The first season had way more disappearances, and don’t forget, they all signed a life-and-death waiver.]

[Even with a life-and-death waiver, they can’t just do this. At least give us the truth. Dying unclearly, what does that mean?]

[Everybody stop making a fuss, let’s wait and see what the production team says. After all, ’Wilderness Survival’ has been completely taken over by the Gu family, it’s because Zheng Xun messed up so badly before!]

After seeing the drone completely retreat, Zhao Lang stepped forward to examine the corpse.

The body had been decomposing for some time and, after the storms of the past few days, was emitting a horribly foul smell.

He covered his nose and mouth and cleared away the scattered stones and grass around it.

"By the looks of it, the time of death should be about half a month ago. It seems to be one of the guests on the island."

Unfortunately, the condition of the corpse’s face had decayed severely, making it impossible to discern its features, though a rough guess could be made that it was a woman.

Jiang Li also squatted down, and for the sake of protecting the scene, she just meticulously examined every detail of the body.

"Her limbs are quite long, her height is estimated to be around 175 cm, and as for her age..."

She briefly examined the bones of the body and guessed, "She should be around 25 years old."

Despite the unclear face, seeing the undecomposed brown hair on top, Jiang Li already had a vague suspicion.

Watching the two of them eagerly discussing the body’s details, Jiang Cheng felt nauseous.

Were these two devils??

He could barely stand the smell even while covering his nose and mouth, let alone observing the body that was still wriggling with maggots.

One look could make him vomit the meals he had eaten a month ago!!!

It really was better not to mess with crazy people!

Soon after, He Pingzhang hurried over with his team and immediately secured the scene.

Seeing Zhao Lang, he was quite surprised, "Young master, how come you are here too?"

Zhao Lang patted the debris off his shoulder, glanced at him, "Why shouldn’t I be here? Assistant He, this should be considered a major accident, right? Can you handle it?"

He Pingzhang smiled, bowed slightly, "Of course, young master, leave it to me."

He had handled countless similar situations for the Gu family and was most skilled at it.

Before coming here, he had already instructed the PR team to provide a statement on Weibo and had contacted the local police in the nearest city.

As expected, the netizens were satisfied with their responsible attitude and didn’t blow the matter out proportion.

Besides, he had arranged for a team to watch the rival family to prevent them from pulling any sneaky moves, while also spending money to suppress trending searches and minimize the impact as much as possible.

Jiang Li, listening from the side, nodded repeatedly, greatly admiring Assistant He’s capability.

Indeed, a person hailing from the top echelons of Capital, from the discovery of the body to now, it had only been about fifteen minutes, yet he had managed to control the situation so perfectly. Truly, not everyone was cut out to be an exceptional assistant.

How wonderful it would be if she also had such a capable person to handle affairs.

Thinking this, Jiang Li couldn’t help but show a look of admiration, which, just at the right moment, caught Zhao Lang’s eye.
