TROTLG Chapter 222

 

The black material on Bai Lixin on the internet continued to fester. Mr. Yayaxi even called on Bai Lixin to hold a press conference to explain these matters but was rebuffed.

The second round of the original song contest was on track, and Mr. Yayaxi looked at the results of the first two weeks of the competition with a frown on his face and a lot of anxiety.

Mitchell had been hacked to pieces due to black material. With such a blow to a newcomer, he feared that there would be little room for a comeback. As for the other two singers, they just don’t have the extra energy to write songs due to the intense work they did earlier. Their performance in the second round was poor, and by the end of the two weeks, they only ranked 10th and 13th. That meant that if six more people finished above them in the remaining two weeks, they would both have to stop there.

As for Mitchell, Mr.Yayaxi sighed. Mitchell had been one of his most favoured singers, but he was being blackballed to such an extent.

Tonight is Mitchell’s competition scene. I wonder if he will be able to pull through.

This tactic, this false accusation of people……

Yayaxi gritted his teeth, picked up his mobile phone and made a call. As soon as the caller got through, Yayaxi said, “Mr. Borg, haven’t you gone too far?! You mustn’t forget that I still have a handle on what Jonas did! Please stop it, or don’t blame me for breaking the net! ”

Without waiting for Borg’s reply, Yayaxi hung up the phone, his hand clutching his forehead with a pained whimper.

Mia had been his most admired singer, five years into his career and on the rise.

But then something happened to him that cut his career short. The rumours on the internet that Mia was being kept as a mistress were simply false, but what really happened to Mia was something even more terrible than that!

Mia was using psychotropic substances behind the scenes! Something that was banned by the state!

He had approached Mia after he had been exposed as a cheater, and Mia had told him the truth only after he was in tears.

At some point, Jonas had begun to show Mia affection, which flattered him. But after they got to know each other, Jonas said that he was interested in some songs he had written and was willing to offer him a career in exchange for his songs, but Mia chose to refuse.

After his refusal, Jonas did not choose to stay away from Mia but became closer to him. He praised Mia for being different from the sultry bitches out there who were only interested in fame and fortune. He then slowly recommended a beauty injection to Mia that would nourish and beautify his face. Without question, Mia started injecting the psychostimulant and eventually got addicted.

And it was at that moment that Jonas showed his sinister face.

Using the euphoric injections as leverage, Jonas obtained several unpublished songs from Mia, one after another, until he couldn’t squeeze out anything more. Jonas and Borg then dumped a scandal on Mia.

Mia was a drug addict and, if caught, would have been detained in prison for compulsory rehab. He preferred to be snowballed on the grounds of a disorderly life rather than drug use. Jonas had pictures and evidence of his drug use, and to keep his dignity intact, Mia would rather break his teeth and swallow them than confront Jonas.

And so Mia was shelved by the company..

Mr. Yayaxi had just gone to see Mia the other day, and he had lost his old self because of his addiction. He was yellow and skinny and spent his days hiding in a dark room, living off the money he had spent as a singer, buying psychotropic substances in secret. Yayaxi looked at the disembodied Mia, who was a far cry from the smiling Mia of the past.

Mia could not be the only one victimised by Jonas over the years. There must be many other people who have been victimised by Jonas’s skillfulness!

Jonas had been famous for nothing for so long, he hadn’t been able to create a song since. Two records a year, ten songs per record, and twenty songs a year. That’s two hundred and sixty songs in thirteen years. Those are a lot of songs, and a tight and orderly composition like that was simply not something many people could accomplish

…….

When the phone was hung up, Mr. Borg froze, and Jonas, who was standing by, saw him and asked, “What’s wrong? Who’s calling? ”

“It’s Yayaxi.” Borg said, “Ignore him for now. I’ve looked into Nigelus’s background and he’s no country omega at all! He’s the sixth son of the Haiyin family, one of the three great families, and his real name is Haizi Haiyin.”

Jonas’s hand on his glass suddenly trembled, “Haizi? How come I haven’t heard of that name? ”

“Oh, you haven’t heard of him. He was a marriage bargaining chip How could he compare with Jonas, a household name? He’s a child of one of the three families, but he has no presence in the family because of the many children. The reason why he hid his identity and entered the entertainment industry was also that he was not willing to be a prop for the family’s marriage. This man can be used; he has ambition in his heart. ”

Jonas blinked and said, “Okay, I get it. What did Yayaxi say to you just now? He sounded angry.”

Borg hesitated for a moment, but eventually said, “Don’t worry, it’s nothing, I can fix it.”

Jonas nodded and didn’t pursue the matter any further.

The next day, Yayaxi left the office building. He had driven his vehicle for a short moment when a giant semi-trailer sped up and reversed direction, instantly squeezing his car into a metal ball.

…….

It was the third day when Bai Lixin received the news of Yayaxi’s death. He had been in seclusion these days, composing songs, and had planned to release an album. Hallyvette brought the news just when he had come out of the music room.

Bai Lixin frowned and turned on his computer, but there was no report of the accident on the internet. It was so peaceful that the vicious accident in the downtown area seemed to have evaporated into thin air.

The driver claimed to have been driving tired and that he was in a trance when the accident occurred. He came into the reverse lane and hit Mr. Yayaxi’s car. ” Hallyvette said as he flipped through the results sent by his men, “but actually ……”

“In reality, it was someone Borg paid to kill and silence him.” Bai Lixin frowned as he gripped the corner of the table and clutched the tablecloth tightly.

Hallyvette glanced at the report, then at Bai Lixin, and sighed, “As I said, you don’t have to go to the original song competition for the time being. This is no longer a mere peer competition; this is already a matter of personal safety. ”

“Heh,” Bai Lixin sneered, releasing his grip on the corner of the table that had been deformed. “Since Borg has dogged it to the point of killing people, it means that the secrets that Mr. Yayaxi held had touched their bottom line. Not only that, but they’ve even blocked the news, and there’s been no mention of the vicious incident in the downtown area on the internet, not even on the news. It’s not like Jonas and Borg are the only ones involved. No matter how powerful and well-connected Borg is, he’s just an agent. He can’t do this. There must be someone else behind them! ” The source of Jonas’ psychotropic stimulants must also be related to that mystery man.

[S419M,] Bai Lixin called out to the long-lost S419M in his mind, [Do you have any clues as to who the person behind Jonas and Borg is?]

[I’m sorry, Lord Host, the system hasn’t gotten any answers either. But Lord Host, I think you would find the skills that the system has just unlocked useful.]

Bai Lixin was silent for a moment: [What skills are there?] Because of the previous incident with the “Heavy Range”, Bai Lixin always thought that the skills S419M got were only dispensable skills. But from S419M’s tome, it didn’t seem to be the case.

[The system has extracted the skills of Food God and God of Gluttony to form a new skill called Soul False Death. This skill can only be used three times.]

[Soul False Death?]

[It allows the lord host’s soul to enter a state of extinction. When attacked by a powerful soul force, your soul will appear to be extinguished, but will slowly re-gather. If you encounter a false god in the next world, this skill should be able to help you. A false god has not been detected in this world, but please still be careful.]

Bai Lixin pondered for a moment, [Okay, open the exchange interface].

[Ding! Opening the exchange interface.] As soon as S419M’s words fell, a row of shelves glowing with light blue fluorescence appeared in Bai Lixin’s mind. At the top of the shelves was a four-sided box containing something that shone brightly.

[Skill “Soul Fake Death” X3, automatically activated when the soul is destroyed. 50,000 dimensional points will be deducted.]

After a moment’s hesitation, Bai Lixin nodded in his mind: [Okay, acquire “Soul False Death”].

Just after the exchange, a sudden ringing sound broke Bai Lixin’s conversation with S419M. Bai Lixin froze and looked at Hallyvette who was sitting beside him.

Hallyvette picked up the phone and waved toward Bai Lixin, “It’s for you, baby. No phone number is showing up, strange. ”

Bai Lixin walked over and took the phone. He froze when he saw the caller ID, “It’s Borg.”

He had thrown away Borg’s business card when he first gave it to him, but Bai Lixin could not forget the number. Mr. Yayaxi was his manager, and now that he was dead, Borg was calling, which was not a good thing.

Bai Lixin glanced at Hallyvette and nodded gently before picking up the phone, “Hello Mr Borg.”

“Haha, Mr Mitchell, thank you for saving my number. I thought you had thrown away my card.”

Bai Lixin was bored. “Mr. Borg, what can I do for you?”

Borg, on the other end of the line, was silent for a moment before continuing, “I know you are upset right now, Mitchell. Mr. Yayaxi has passed away, and that is an outcome no one wants, but time will go on without him, and you still have a great future to look forward to. So I would ask you, would you like me to be your new manager?”

Bai Lixin snorted and sneered into the phone, “Mr. Borg, you’re joking. I don’t have any future. The internet is full of voices denouncing me. They’re going to get rid of me before Mr. Borg takes over me. I’m afraid you’re just taking a hot potato. ”
