My Dearest General: It Has Always Been You

Xu Binchen had no choice but to return to the Police Bureau because Jin Renguang caught wind of the news and demanded an emergency meeting. He met up with Wang Chengbing outside the hospital. They switched seats and he took hold of the wheel, slamming onto the gas pedal and the car shot into the road like a bullet.

The pressure inside the car was low and the only sound heard was Wang Chengbing typing. Then, he suddenly cursed. "Damn it!"

Xu Binchen knew that nothing good ever came from his reaction. "It can\'t be taken down?"

Wang Chengbing almost plucked his hair off. Frustration evident in his brows. "Yes, it can. But what\'s the use of it? It has already got into the trending topic with more than a million views and 200.000 comments! If I delete it, then the whole thing will backfire!"

Not only would it cause suspicion, but the wave it brought would become more tumultuous instead. After all, suddenly erasing the whole thing should be counted as a guilty conscience right? The choice was either to stay silent or make a clarification. However, staying silent wasn\'t feasible. Made a clarification? What kind of clarification could they possibly send out? They were just unlucky passersby!

They were totally caught off guard, stuck between rock and a hard place.

Veins bulged out of Xu Binchen\'s forehead. "Why haven\'t you detected it before it got into the trending list?!"

Wang Chengbing was the technician of their squad. Whenever it involved surveillance records and cyberspace, then it would be his area of expertise, after all, he had no qualification to be a police officer other than his superb skill as a hacker.

Hearing Xu Binchen\'s words, Wang Chengbing felt really wronged. "Brother, my good brother Binchen. Tell me, who between us has the time to check Weib8[1] every single day?! Do you think I am an internet addict?!"

Xu Binchen: "…" He\'s right. Damn it.

If they couldn\'t even find enough time to sleep, who had the leisure to check the trending list in Weib8?

"Then this time, how did they find out?"

Wang Chengbing wiped his nonexistent tears. "It\'s Senior Ru, alright. She has quite a lot of followers, almost two millions. An internet celebrity. This time, it\'s her who inadvertently saw it and informed our Captain. Do you want to see it?"

Xu Binchen frowned. "I don\'t have Weib8."

Wang Chengbing threw him a rotten look that screamed, "See?! You old man!"

Xu Binchen: "…"

"Shall I remind you of something?" Wang Chengbing snickered in schadenfreude.

"What?"

"You\'re also in the video. No, you\'re the main protagonist of it."

"…fuck."

***

The whole SCI unit was thrown into chaos.

And the root of all problems was just a small account with less than 300 followers. It all started with a video when Shi Nian got into an accident. The original poster, who was only fifteen years old—practically the time when they couldn\'t let go of their phones—was there that day.

When people got into panic, the first thing that popped up in her mind was to record a video to gain a small splash in popularity. The title in the video was very eye-catching. [Who wouldn\'t want such a handsome brother to rescue you and give you emergency treatment?! Gege, save me too!]

Of course, as Wang Chenbing said, the main protagonist in the video was Xu Binchen.

In the 53 seconds video, Xu Binchen\'s taut back was recorded as he performed CPR, his arms muscles flexed, very masculine and full of pheromones. Then, the video shook violently and the scene plunged into chaos, people screaming, inquiring and scooting closer, causing Xu Binchen\'s figure to be blocked by people\'s backs.

Then, the medical personnel arrived to bring Shi Nian in, and Xu Binchen\'s dark face reflected on the screen. Maybe the girl was frightened as she hurriedly moved the camera away and instead, another handsome man appeared.

It was Jiang Jinyan who sat on a wheelchair.

At first, people clicked on her video because of the interesting title. In the first few days, it didn\'t cause much reaction, only less than 100 views, but somehow, a popular blogger found it out and reposted it, even added some captions that finally made the whole thing explode. [My fellow sisters and brothers, am I blind or am I blind? Is this Jiang Jinyan, our gold medalist athlete?! Please tell me that I am blind QAQ.]

The name Jiang Jinyan wasn\'t unfamiliar to teenagers, especially when the season of Olympics was coming soon in a few months. Jiang Jinyan had a verified Weib8 account as a high jump athlete, his followers reached the threshold of 3 million people, proving how much fans he had. He had a wide range of fans, mainly consisting of girlfriend fans, mama fans, big sister fans, brother fans, and perverted fans.

The man had a gentle contour, but when he smiled, a hint of wild and wickedness could be seen in his eyes, his whole body reflected the recklessness of youth and the vigor of a healthy athlete. A video of his training had garnered more than a million views and it was just a video less than 10 seconds long.

He wore a loose white shirt with the sleeves rolled up, showing the expanse of his long and fair arms. When he jumped and twisted his body in the air, the light reflected his pale skin and the hem of the shirt shifted up to show his lean and slender waist as well as a pair of legs that were both long and muscly.

The arc of his back was very attractive, just like a dolphin that performed a jump in the air and splashed back into the water.

He was both sunny yet eccentric, sporty yet mature, polite yet nonchalant. Such a contrast was enough to invite moe[2], and his Weib8 was flocked with people who wanted to lick his face through the screen.

3 million followers, 3 million pairs of eyes, how could they not recognize Jiang Jinyan\'s handsome face?!

Thus, above the trending list of #EmergencyRescueGege, there was #JiangJinyanHospitalized #JiangJinyanWheelchair #CanJiangJinyanStillCompete

After that, the original poster\'s video broke into more than a million views in mere days. She, of course, didn\'t expect that her video would become such a huge sensation. Frightened, she hurriedly retracted her post, but it was too late already.

Screenshots, downloads and records had been spread everywhere, it all laid open in front of the wide range of internet.

Thus Xu Binchen was overshadowed by Jiang Jinyan\'s popularity. But it was okay.

But the problem was…Shi Nian was seen in the video in a split second. When Xu Binchen stood up to let the medical personnel do their work, Shi Nian\'s face cut into the corner of the screen.

If nobody noticed it, then okay.

But…what if the serial killer saw it?

Now, even though it had turned into a trending topic, the original poster had gone into hiding and no matter how loud the netizens asked her, she wouldn\'t appear, acting as if she was dead. So, Jiang Jinyan\'s location hadn\'t been discovered yet and the reporter was crazy searching for the place in the video.

By now, the video had sat in the top ten trending for 6 hours.

How long would it take for them to find out the location? How much longer could they maintain the peace in the hospital? Could they still let Shi Nian stay there?
