Chapter 117: God of Food Water
The deceased's social relationships were simple. After checking, we didn't see any major problems from the faces of the people who had interactions with him.

We can only wait for his wife to come tomorrow and continue the investigation.

At night, Yu Ning and Xiao Kui were arranged to live in the girls' dormitory in the bureau.

Xiao Kui was so hungry that she couldn't sleep. She lay on the wooden bed and stared at the ceiling.

Listening to the sound of Yu Ning on the lower bunk watching short videos, Xiao Kui peeked over from above.

“How bizarre! You also watch short videos—30 yuan to experience the happiness of workers after get off work?”

Xiaokui read out the title of the content from Lemon Brush.

"Very ordinary - ah, isn't this the deceased?"

In the video, a man dressed as a delivery rider is carefully selecting fried skewers and fried rice at a stall in the night market.

The content of the video is very boring, just a bunch of cheap snacks and a few dollars of wine, eating with gusto at a roadside stall.

Such a meaningless piece of content actually received more than 1 likes and thousands of comments.

"What's there to see here?" Xiao Kui didn't understand.

In the age of self-media, the more meaningless the daily content, the more people will watch it, and people are immersed in the joy of pointing fingers at other people's lives.

The various life situations of people from different classes are transformed into electronic pickled mustard tubers in a few minutes to be eaten as a side dish. It does not require any profound principles or nutrition.

Once you’ve seen it, you’ve forgotten it.

"The comment section isn't the point. You see, he filmed this video half a year ago. At that time, although his face looked tired, his spirit was happy. Most importantly, his facial features were different from when he died."

Yu Ning told Xiao Kui about his discovery, and Xiao Kui then realized that Yu Ning was looking for clues.

"I'll watch it with you!" Xiaokui rolled down from the upper bunk.

The two girls ordered some takeout and checked the deceased's social media accounts while waiting for the food.

Yu Ning started watching the video of the deceased from half a year ago, and worked his way back to the present.

The videos are not long, just a few minutes each, and the content is similar. The titles are even the same, about the joy of working people making money.

Their faces look different every day, but generally speaking, they all have the faces of the working people at the bottom of society who are suffering. They are not very rich, but they may occasionally have some minor verbal disputes or lose a little money.

In the eyes of a physiognomist, watching his videos is like reading his inner world.

The takeaway was delivered, and the two people and the cat ate while watching videos.

Xiao Kui watched with Yu Ning for a while and found that the contents were similar and boring, so she focused her attention on the takeaway. As a result, she became more and more upset the more she ate.

“Why are all the dishes pre-made?”

Pre-prepared meals are too soulless for foodies.

"I always feel that pre-prepared dishes lack some of the flavor of the wok. No matter how well they are seasoned, they still lack the flavor."

Yu Ning nodded, agreeing.

Nowadays, many restaurants are opened in food courts of shopping malls. Open flames are prohibited in such places, and only pre-prepared dishes can be used. There are more and more chain restaurants, and in pursuit of standardization, they also use pre-prepared dishes.

“These pre-prepared dishes are not as good as the ones he ate at street stalls.” Xiao Kui pointed at Yu Ning’s phone. Yu Ning had already watched the second to last video of the deceased.

The video time was 17 days ago.

"Don't watch it anymore. Let me take you to the night market. These videos are all very similar and there's no clue to be found." Xiao Kui wanted to find a place to have a good meal to satisfy her appetite.

“I’ve already seen the problem.”

"Huh?!" "That's a lot of questions."

“???” Xiao Kui was confused. They were watching it together, so how come she didn’t notice anything?
The black cat looked at the foodie with disdain. This is the difference between a top student and a poor student.

"Half a year ago, he released a short video that received over 10,000 likes, which made him taste the sweetness of success. He still wanted to maintain that record, but the number of views has been declining. The last few he released only received a few likes."

"So?" Xiaokui didn't understand.

“After making quick money once, I lost the motivation to work hard and wanted to continue making quick money, but the number of views was not increasing.

My mentality collapsed and my appearance became worse and worse.

17 days ago, in the second to last video he posted, his fate palace had the evil spirit of disaster, which was already a bloody disaster. But, what did he post in the first to last video? "

Yu Ning clicked on the last video posted by the deceased before his death, which was different from the previous "The Happiness of ×× Money" series of videos.

The last video is purely a show of wealth.

He sat in a high-end restaurant, wearing a Rolex Submariner on his wrist and a bunch of luxury car keys on the table.

This video has a very high number of views and its title is "Get the full amount at the age of 28".

The last one was published exactly half a month ago, which was the time when the deceased’s neighbor said he had become rich.

There are also a lot of messages in the comment section, some call him brother, some ask him how he made his fortune, and some are jealous.

"In the last video, his face had changed. It looked the same as when he died, plain and ordinary. It must have been altered by someone."

This in itself is very incongruous. How can a person with an ordinary appearance get the money to buy luxury goods?
"The two videos that enabled him to achieve a class leap were released only two days apart. During these two days, he must have met a special person or thing. So—" Yu Ning looked at Xiao Kui.

"Contact the technical department and check his call and chat records for the past two days, as well as the private messages in the background of the short video platform!" Xiao Kui understood it immediately.

The two girls did what they said. The technical department was in this building, and they were able to enter easily by showing their temporary work permits.

After telling the technical department the purpose of his visit, they immediately cooperated with Yu Ning to start an investigation, and they actually made some discoveries.

16 days ago, there was a private message in the background of the deceased's short video account, asking him whether he was willing to eat simple meals and sell food at roadside stalls all his life, and whether he was interested in changing his destiny.

If this kind of private message is sent to Yu Ning and Xiao Kui, they will definitely not reply. People who practice Taoism know best that there is no such thing as a free lunch.

But the deceased, who had been in a long-term dilemma, responded and asked the other party how to change.

The other party asked him for his address and said that they would give him a bottle of "Water of the God of Cookery" for free, and let him try it first, and then buy it if it works.

That’s all the chat history, there’s no more.

"Could this be a scam or just a joke?" a staff member from the technical department asked Yu Ning.

Yu Ning's eyes fell on the Water of the God of Cookery, and she thought of the man's abnormal behavior when he participated in the big eater competition.

Her intuition told her that the problem lies with the water of the God of Food.

"Can I find out the specific address by sending a private message to his account?" Yu Ning asked, pointing at the screen.

"The IP shows that it is from Country T, which is a foreign country. It is not easy to check. It is also possible that the virtual server has been shut down and the IP has been changed. We need some time to investigate."

Country T? Yu Ning and Xiao Kui thought of the same person almost at the same time.

Lin Jun, he is currently filming in Country T.

Coincidentally, something related to food was also happening in Lin Jun’s crew.

A little bit of emotion, I personally think that people who write books should have their own attitudes, and should not be afraid to speak out because they are worried that their attitudes will be controversial. Although my attitudes may not be right, they should be there. For example, the pre-prepared dishes and the fruit of appetite that appear here, hmm.
