「Zizhou.」

In a high-end residential district, Qing Lan entered the study, ready to start her live stream for the evening. She suddenly saw a pop-up notification on her phone.

Qin Mu… he's updated already?

She paused for a moment, somewhat surprised. It hadn't even been two weeks since the bank case had ended, yet Qin Mu had already released his second video.

I wonder who the unlucky one is this time…

Curiously, she clicked on the video notification. The title of the video was very positive: "Do not refrain from small good deeds, and do not commit small evils."

After opening the video, Qin Mu immediately explained the incident he had encountered.

"Parcel theft…"

Qing Lan blinked. Parcel loss was a common occurrence in everyday life. She herself had faced a couple of instances of missing parcels. Though the merchant had compensated her in the end, the actual perpetrator was never found. Sometimes, petty theft was very hard to resolve. The value of the stolen goods often wasn't enough to meet the standards for filing a case, so she simply had to accept it as bad luck. Even if a case were filed… given the myriad practical difficulties, it was hard to find the thief.

And in Qin Mu's video… the parcel depot didn't even have surveillance! In such a situation, finding the thief who specifically stole small parcels would require a miracle.

Then, in the video, Qin Mu pulled off an astonishing maneuver. He ordered a horror box. And he seriously claimed… he was doing it to build courage!

As a result… the horror box was stolen by the thief, who ended up scared straight into the hospital!

This… this is just too absurd, right?

Qing Lan swallowed hard. She couldn't help but scoff. She didn't believe a single punctuation mark of Qin Mu's claim about building courage! Intuition told her the box Qin Mu bought was specifically for that thief! As for the coincidence… she could only attribute it to the thief's miserable luck.

And in the video, after the thief was hospitalized, his father actually came knocking, demanding compensation from Qin Mu! Qin Mu refused to pay. The other party counteracted by calling the police, only to get his own son arrested!

Upon seeing this, Qing Lan's expression gradually turned strange. The thief had eluded capture for a month, only to be busted by a horror box!

The most bizarre part was… in the end, the thief was prosecuted and sentenced to ten years and three months in prison, along with a fine!

"Ten years…"

As she watched the sentencing at the end of the video, Qing Lan's mouth twitched. During this time, she had followed Qin Mu and learned quite a bit about criminal law, so she was aware of the sentencing ranges. Generally speaking, even for intentional homicide with lesser circumstances, the sentence was three years or more, but not exceeding ten years. Involuntary manslaughter typically resulted in sentences of no more than three years! Serious robbery, like robbing a bank, started at ten years.

And this thief… for stealing several parcels containing various official documents, data, and proposals, he was directly sentenced to ten years! This was beyond outrageous.

Let's check the forum.

She silently liked, saved, and shared the video, then accessed the secret forum: the Study Law Alliance Forum. This forum had become a dedicated gathering place for Qin Mu's fans. Besides Little Station, netizens from other platforms were also gradually joining. Many people had voluntarily shared Qin Mu's videos to other platforms, attracting a massive influx of fans. From time to time, one could see "newbie posts" on the forum.

Now, the entire forum was discussing the parcel theft incident. Qin Mu's video on "Do not commit small evils" had once again refreshed their understanding of petty theft.

「Mountain and Water Garden District.」

Qin Mu frowned as he looked at his newly released video. The view count is already nearing a million.

Only two hours had passed, and the video had already reached a remarkable one million views. With the addition of 2,000 lucky points, his exposure had surged. Clearly, the final view count of this video could surpass ten million. The reach was incredibly wide. The number of likes and comments was also astonishing.

But the comments… they remained the same as usual—far from normal. After the previous modern poetry and prose, this time the comment section had turned into a showcase for ancient proverbs.

"Do not commit small evils; do not refrain from small good deeds."

"Having recently learned the turtle's way, retract your head when it's time to stay."

"To others speak but fractionally, never bare your heart entirely."

"An untaught son is like a donkey bred; an untaught daughter, like a pig instead."

"..."

It was mostly filled with ancient wisdom on how to conduct oneself. There wasn't a single serious discussion.

Where have all these netizens gone?

Qin Mu's mouth twitched as he muttered to himself. His 3.5 million fans felt fake. There wasn't any normal interaction whatsoever. After posting the video, he suddenly felt like he was playing a single-player game.

Later, he resumed his search on Little Station, trying to find his fan base. Because he had previously popped up in their group chat… the "Ma Xiaotiao" account used for it had since been deleted, and his fans had vanished. Previously, there were daily requests for updates, but now there were none at all.

Half an hour later, he felt like he had scoured the entire Little Station but still couldn't find where his fans congregated.

These people… It was as if they were avoiding him.

「The next day.」

At the nursing home, Qin Mu went to work as usual. As an uploader with 3.5 million subscribers but seemingly no active fans, his mood was somewhat gloomy.

In contrast, Old Zhang and the others… they were becoming more cheerful day by day. Their smiles were growing more frequent.
