Chapter 692 World 227
Around four or five in the afternoon, Zhao Manrou's message finally arrived.
[Yinyin, the weather is nice today, and there are so many people at the Cultural Palace. Would you and your aunt and uncle like to come out for a stroll and soak up some sun?]
Shen Ruyin glanced at the phone, then put it aside and continued watching the courses Ke Xue had bought for her on the old desktop computer at home.
Although the monitor and the host are a bit old, making it a little laggy and the fan a bit loud, it's still okay for watching videos.
Shen Ruyin took notes as she read, and by the time she realized she hadn't replied to the message, it was already time for her mother to call her for dinner.
Shen Ruyin opened her phone and replied absentmindedly.
[I just saw it, but I'm not going out. My parents and I are both a bit tired, and we've been resting at home for a long time today.]
Zhao Manrou responded to messages relatively quickly.
[It's alright, it's alright. The weather looks pretty good tomorrow, so we can go out then.]
[I'm planning to go sketching tomorrow, Yinyin, do you want to come?]
Shen Ruyin replied to her.
[I'm not going. I've been busy lately, and it's too hot. I don't want to go out at all.]
"Alright then," Zhao Manrou emphasized one last time, "Don't just stay at home; go out more often and get some sunshine."
Shen Ruyin replied with "[Okay]" and ended the chat.
"What's wrong?" Shen's mother asked, noticing Shen Ruyin's long face. "Was the afternoon class too difficult?"
"There's no rush, let's take our time and learn it. The most important thing is to learn it."
Shen Ruyin nodded, hugged her mother, and said in a sticky voice, "It's my first day watching, so I'm a little confused. I'll get used to it as I learn the basics."
"Maybe in the future, editing will be as easy for me as eating and drinking, and I can finish a short video in just a few minutes."
“You can definitely do it,” Shen’s mother said, not discouraging her daughter, but giving her full affirmation. “You are quick-witted and familiar with computers. Once you learn it, you will definitely be no worse than others.”
Shen Ruyin smiled and said, "Mom, if you keep saying that, I won't even have time to learn before my tail starts wagging in the air!"
"Really? Where is it? Let me see," Mother Shen deliberately looked back. "It's not there. Looks like I didn't praise it enough."
Mr. Shen poked his head out from the kitchen: "Come and serve the dishes."
The mother and daughter then stopped chatting and laughing, one taking bowls and chopsticks, the other serving dishes.
"Wow," Shen Ruyin said, looking at the delicious food on the table. "It smells so good, Dad. Your cooking is really good."
Shen's father replied, "What's so good about it? Your mother's cooking is still the best."
“Who said that?” Mrs. Shen quickly said, “Your cooking is still the best.”
Seeing her parents praising her cooking as the best, Shen Ruyin felt full after only a few bites.
After dinner, Shen Ruyin returned to her room and opened Ke Xue's live stream.
"Welcome, welcome everyone to the live stream. Good evening, everyone."
While greeting everyone, Ke Xue diligently adjusted the equipment.
"Hey guys, we've been staying in the guesthouse for several days now. Today I'm going to show you something different. Let's see what the Black Mountain looks like outside the guesthouse at night."
[What's there to see at the scenic spot at night? They might not even have barbecue.]
[You guys forgot? Montenegro has fireflies. Did the host find a great place to see them?]
Various comments flooded the screen, but Ke Xue, with his sharp eyes, caught the key point and laughed, "Oh dear, what should we do? You guys guessed today's most important live stream material so easily, there's no mystery at all."
As he spoke, Ke Xue adjusted the device to focus on the curtains.
"Guys, are you ready?"
"three two……"
"one!"
Ke Xue turned off the light and pulled back the curtains with a whoosh.
The angle has been adjusted, and the device is aimed diagonally below the window, capturing the entire "starry sky" outside.
[So many fireflies, how beautiful!]
[From the angle of the live stream the day before yesterday, you couldn't see at all; there were so many fireflies.]
[That's now. If I were a kid, I would have caught a few and put them in a glass jar.]
[Then you put it by your bedside and let it stay lit all night, right? I did that when I was a kid.]
[That won't do now. If you catch any rare species, you'll be in big trouble!]
“That’s right,” Ke Xue read out the last comment, and then mentioned the current situation of fireflies, “So remember, when you see fireflies, just admire them and don’t do anything to them.”
"By the way, please try to avoid using flash when taking photos!"
The comments went off-topic and started talking about animal protection, with Ke Xue occasionally chiming in.
In the live broadcast room, some people were enjoying the scenery, while others were chatting, each doing their own thing and having a good time.
Shen Ruyin recorded a segment of the live stream, then turned the live stream app into a small window, opened the editing software, and planned to practice the mobile editing skills she had learned that afternoon while watching the live stream, creating a live stream clip.
She had only been working with her head down for a short while when she looked back at the live stream and noticed that the small text in the chat was a bit off.
She turned the live stream to full screen and scrolled up.
[Hey guys, is there anyone in the woods over there near the fireflies?]
[It seems so, quite a few, what are they doing? Digging in the night?]
Why dig at night? It's not like we're making money.
[No, no, I have a feeling they might actually be after money. Look at the shovels they're using, something doesn't look right!]
Ke Xue, who had been watching the live stream, had noticed the comments. He zoomed in and indeed spotted some figures, though they weren't very clear.
"Hey guys, wait for me a minute."
Shen Ruyin didn't know what Ke Xue meant, but the loyal viewers in the live stream had already guessed it.
[Alright, alright, the streamer's ultimate weapon is finally making a comeback! The last time he used it was during the Zhao Tianbao incident, wasn't it?]
[That's right, this is a serious matter, so something big must be going on below. Guys, get ready to call Uncle Hat!][doge.jpg]
[What are you talking about? Why are you mentioning Uncle Hat?]
[Is the person upstairs a newbie? You'll see when you get there.][Sunglasses and a sly smile.jpg]
Ke Xue didn't keep everyone waiting for long. He quickly returned with something, fiddled with the equipment used for live streaming for a while, and when he looked down again, he could even see the patterns on the clothes of the people below.
"Let me adjust it," Ke Xue readjusted the focus, and the live stream swept over the faces of everyone below.
Finally, the live stream focused on the center of their busy activity—a toppled stone tablet and a small mound of earth that had been dug up.
[What grudge could they possibly hold against me, even in death?]
The live stream chat immediately erupted in excitement.
On the other end, Shen Ruyin had already started screen recording.
She recognized those people at a glance, even though others might not know them.
She saw these people checking in at the guesthouse lobby during the day.
Someone in the live chat posted that they had already reported the news about Uncle Hat, so Shen Ruyin didn't pick up her phone to make a call.
[Wow, did they dig a hole and then jump in?]
