After offending capital, my songs became more and more popular.

Chapter 232 Spray Paint Graffiti: Toilet!
[Traitor, hj! Hetui!]

Damn it, I should have seen through his true colors long ago!

On the surface, they present a righteous and noble image, and they even hire online trolls to whitewash themselves. They promote the story behind "Red Actress" and claim that they will sing songs that criticize them when they perform at the Jingguo Sacred Toilet, but then they go and visit the Jingguo Sacred Toilet themselves...

[Can't you live a normal life without flattering others for even a day?]

【I feel disgusted just thinking about his works praising our ancestors. Does this kind of person even deserve to praise our ancestors?!】

……

The guy who secretly broadcast Shen Mingen's visit to the Jingguo Divine Toilet is a real old fox. He secretly hid the camera in his clothes and recorded almost the entire process of Shen Mingen's visit to the Jingguo Divine Toilet without it seeming deliberate. Not only did Shen Mingen not notice it, but even the staff inside the Jingguo Divine Toilet didn't notice it.

Actually, the authorities aren't that strict about "filming" in the first place, otherwise there wouldn't be so many videos circulating online that contain such content. It's normal for things to go wrong no matter how careful you are.

But this very "normality" became Shen Ming'en's "death chain" at this moment, gradually wrapping around his neck and slowly tightening...

Before long, the chains will dig into Shen Ming'en's flesh and completely suffocate him.

"It's so lively...so lively!"

Mr. Ma from next door, who was initially somewhat uneasy about President Qin's plan to target Shen Ming'en's performance in the clean toilet, suddenly perked up upon seeing the news and shouted:

"No matter who is targeting Shen Ming'en, our company will definitely step in to help!"

Thinking this, Mr. Ma directly called the company. With their support, the news spread even wider. Not only was the news of "Shen Ming'en visiting the Jingguo Divine Toilet" all over the Chinese entertainment network, but it also started appearing on some social media platforms on foreign websites.

Gradually……

Many people on the other side were also amused and discussing it:

Okay, okay, okay!

Let's also pay our respects to our ancestors.

[Haha... Yoho! I told you you guys distorted history, our records are the truth!]

We strongly recommend that Ming Ensang join our nationality; we would welcome it with open arms!

……

The netizens in the Chinese entertainment industry were already angry, and these netizens from Xiao Rizi IP are adding fuel to the fire. Their actions are tantamount to adding fuel to the fire and making it burn even brighter!
Angry netizens from the Chinese entertainment industry rushed to the live stream room where Shen Mingen was "visiting the Jingguo Divine Toilet" almost overnight, and the entire live stream room was filled with such swearing that it was unbelievable!
At the beginning, the number of people online at the same time was only a few hundred thousand. As time went by and the news spread, the number of people increased. In just ten or twenty minutes, the number of people watching the live stream at the same time reached more than 30 million!

And it's still rising steadily!

Of the more than 3 million viewers, on average, every three people who came in would hurl a scathing insult at Shen Ming'en, resulting in millions of comments being refreshed every minute in the live stream—it's outrageous!
At this moment, there were no more voices from Shen Ming'en's fans and supporters in the live broadcast room, because in the face of "national righteousness", even fans and supporters could only choose to remain silent.

But Shen Ming'en, who was far away at the time, seemed to turn a deaf ear.

……

"Do...do you want to continue shopping?"

Emerging from a hall, Hoshino Rin grabbed Shen Ming'en's arm. The sky was gradually darkening, and it seemed the sacred toilet was about to close. Hoshino Rin decided to use this as an excuse to see if she could urge Shen Ming'en to hurry back.

To be honest, Hoshino Rin really doesn't understand Shen Ming'en. He knows perfectly well that Shen Ming'en intentionally got close to him, and he also knows that someone is definitely taking pictures of him nearby...

Why would he dare to visit the Jingguo Temple in public?

Crazy!
Do you really not want to continue working here?

This not only ruins his career, but also condemns his identity as a Chinese citizen in his own country. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he could be stabbed in the back during a chaotic airport incident one day.

"Go out."

Shen Ming'en did indeed stop shopping, as it was getting late.

On his way out of the cleansing toilet, Shen Ming'en could see some visitors coming and going...

Their ages varied, with most being young people. It is said that nearby schools would organize students to come for team building activities, and occasionally some elderly people would bring their younger relatives.

When they arrived at the stone tablet at the entrance, Shen Ming'en couldn't help but ask:
"Most people who come here think the content is fine, right?"

"Ah?"

Hoshino Rin was stunned by what she heard. As night fell and the city lights came on, Hoshino Rin looked up at Shen Ming'en and her eyes seemed to sparkle, but even that sparkle could not hide the blankness in her eyes.

After a moment, Hoshino Rin nodded blankly, and then said, "Most... I guess so."

In reality, almost everyone who comes here to visit is a bad person, especially their own people. Don't expect them to come in and "correct history."

"Then I won't feel guilty anymore..." Shen Ming'en nodded.

"Huh?" Hoshino Rin was completely confused and asked, "What do you mean?"

"The literal meaning," Shen Ming'en replied.

Originally, Shen Ming'en had some ideas about the song he would be performing here tomorrow...

Because I wondered if there might be people here who face history squarely, or descendants of anti-war activists. If there were such people, my performance might easily "harm" them.

But now it seems that Shen Ming'en was clearly overthinking things.

Who the hell is a good person who comes to a place like the Jingguo Divine Toilet, who the hell comes here to visit and worship?

A pure and innocent group was born!
What's the point of talking to them?

What the hell am I afraid of accidentally getting hurt?!

Let them yell first and then talk!

Hoshino Rin somewhat understood Shen Ming'en's meaning, but not quite. Seeing that the few "tails" were still following them, Hoshino Rin was a little uneasy, so she pointed to the convenience store next to her and asked Shen Ming'en:
Are you thirsty? Do you want me to go buy some water?

After walking for a while, Shen Ming'en was bound to be thirsty, even if Hoshino Rin wasn't, so Shen Ming'en didn't say anything and followed along.

At the convenience store, Hoshino Rin bought a bottle of beverage and a carton of yogurt, and asked Shen Ming'en what he wanted to drink. Shen Ming'en only took a bottle of water.

"...Do you know someone is following us?" Hoshino Rin couldn't help but ask while shopping.

“I know.” Shen Ming’en’s gaze swept over the man wearing a hat under the tree outside the convenience store.

"Then why are you strolling around so leisurely!" Hoshino Rin gritted her teeth.

Does he even realize how serious the consequences will be?
Shen Ming'en didn't explain, but simply said, "You should go back first, don't follow me."

"?"

A series of question marks appeared above Hoshino Rin's head, and she couldn't help but ask Shen Ming'en:
"why?"

"I'm afraid it'll be dangerous for you to come with me," Shen Ming'en replied. "Besides, it's a bit inappropriate for children."

"...What are you going to do?" Hoshino Rin asked.

"Let's get down to business," Shen Ming'en said.

Say it.

Before Hoshino Rin could answer, Shen Ming'en picked up the water bottle and gulped down all the water in one go. Then he walked out of the convenience store and headed straight for the stone tablet at the entrance of the sacred toilet.

"Hey!"

Although Shen Ming'en told her not to follow, how could Hoshino Rin not follow at all? The anime-loving Japanese girl dropped what she was holding and followed them out.

Outside the door, the person secretly filming them and livestreaming from under the big tree was also recording the whole thing.

Because he was back at the entrance, no longer inside, no one was watching or prohibiting him from taking pictures, so this guy actually took more unrestrained and clearer pictures.

Back then...

The number of viewers in the live stream has surged further, reaching 50 to 60 million at the same time.

Comments such as "Shen Ming'en is a traitor" and "hj" have spread throughout the live stream.

To be honest, many people find it hard to understand, because Shen Ming'en's image before this was completely different, so there's no reason for him to suddenly visit the sacred toilet...

But these words will surely be quickly drowned out by the tide of comments under the "big trend"... Everyone can only watch helplessly as a superstar who was once incredibly popular in the Chinese entertainment industry falls from grace.

"Hahaha……"

In Shanghai, Mr. Qin was having a video call with Mr. Ma. Mr. Ma on the other end of the video was smiling broadly, saying:

"I never expected this... Mr. Qin, I think all the trouble we went through to arrange for him to perform at the Cleansing Toilet was completely unnecessary. This kid will just be asking for trouble, hahaha..."

Although President Qin's smile wasn't exaggerated, a faint smile still lingered at the corners of his mouth...

In short, with Shen Ming'en's visit to the sacred toilet, his reputation, his popularity, everything about him...

It's completely ruined!
It's not easy...

After all that effort, they finally managed to shut down that guy, Hajime!

Thinking about it, I do feel a bit emotional.

Anyway...

at this time.

It seems that President Qin and his team already felt that everything was foolproof.

Online, public opinion has completely turned against him, to the point where Shen Ming'en can no longer recover.

This salted fish has been pinned down and has no chance of turning over!

But it was at this very moment...

What is he doing?

Many people noticed that in the blurry footage captured by the security camera, Shen Ming'en actually left the convenience store and headed straight for the stone tablet of the Jingguo Divine Toilet!

After a short while, he arrived in front of the stone tablet but did not stop. Instead, he climbed upwards until he reached the closest point to the stone tablet!

Below the stone tablet of the Cleansing Toilet is a base made of stacked stones. Shen Ming'en jumped up very nimbly and stood in front of the stone tablet of the Cleansing Toilet. He looked at it carefully from top to bottom. Although the filming was not very clear due to the darkness and distance, everyone could still see his actions clearly.

What the hell is this?

Want to get a closer look at the stone tablet in this toilet?

What? You want to hug it and keep it as a memento?

【Ha, you traitor, you bastard!】

……

At this moment, public opinion has not changed; people are still frantically insulting Shen Ming'en.

Meanwhile, back in Shanghai, the smiles on the faces of President Qin, President Ma, and others gradually froze and slowly faded...

Their gazes began to hold a hint of doubt as they carefully watched the content on the live stream.

What happened next did not "disappoint" them.

In the live stream, Shen Ming'en leaped onto the stone seat, briefly glanced at the stone tablet of the Cleansing Toilet, then reached into his pocket with his right hand and pulled out a bottle of... spray paint for graffiti!

then!

He immediately began, in front of everyone, holding a can of spray paint, and started writing in Chinese characters after the character for "god" in the name of the clean toilet!
Horizontal stroke, left-falling stroke, horizontal stroke...

In a matter of moments!

The character "厕" (toilet) was written out!
At first, because of the distance and the blurry camera, many viewers in the online live stream couldn't see what Shen Ming'en had written. But graffitiing inexplicably at the entrance of the Jingguo Sacred Toilet was an extremely excessive and outrageous thing, so many netizens stopped their insults and realized what was going on...

Shen Ming'en's actions seem... not so simple!
It seems that Shen Ming'en's visit tonight wasn't just a simple "visit" to the sacred toilet.

This kid seems to have something to do...

and……

It's a huge deal!
And what happened next certainly lived up to everyone's expectations.

Perhaps because the person responsible for secretly filming Shen Ming'en couldn't make out what Shen Ming'en had written, this guy actually tapped the phone screen and slightly "focused" the camera...

It's not a big deal if it's out of focus...

This is how you focus...

When that word "toilet" appeared in the sight of all Chinese entertainment viewers!
【…】

Many people were taken aback.

Especially those haters who have been relentlessly smearing Shen Ming'en from the beginning, they really felt like their brains had shut down and their cerebellum had atrophied at that moment!

After only a brief moment of opportunity, the comments section exploded again!

This time, however, everyone stopped targeting Shen Ming'en, stopped calling him a traitor and a traitor, and instead began to...

Praise him!
He deserves rave reviews!
No...

【He...he...he...】

What the hell is he doing?!

【puff……】

【Hahaha……】

【666! 】

【oh!!!】

That was amazing!

He did what every Chinese person wanted to do but dared not do!

[Invincible, truly invincible!]

【Well done! 】

My assessment is that it's unsolvable! Absolutely unsolvable!

Who said Ming'en is a traitor? Ming'en is absolutely amazing!

[Weren't netizens just mocking her? Why aren't they laughing now? Is she just naturally averse to smiling?]

……

Shen Ming'en's act of explicitly changing the "shrine" in "shrine" to "toilet" at the entrance of the sacred toilet might be something that many people who don't understand Chinese wouldn't know the meaning of if they saw it in person...

However, netizens online could immediately and instantly understand the content using translation software!

It was precisely because of knowing the contents...

That's when their faces will get a resounding slap!

What's the funniest thing?
It seemed that Shen Ming'en was afraid they wouldn't understand, so he actually started writing again with spray paint after the word "toilet", spraying the English word "Toilet" on it!
What does "toilet" mean?
In English: Toilet, toilet bowl.
He was genuinely afraid those lowly folks wouldn't understand!

【puff……】

【oh!!!】

that moment.

The Chinese entertainment audience who originally came in to criticize Shen Mingen suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction!
It only takes less than a minute for the shouts to turn into cheers.

While they're having a good time, certain people behind the scenes are definitely not laughing!
