As someone who’s been caught in the rain, Pingping enjoyed offering umbrellas to others, frequently exchanging thoughts in mutual-aid groups as well.
Most members of the group were people with disabilities, or had family members who were disabled. They gathered in this group to support one another and share jobs that could be performed by people with disabilities.
The son of the mother who attempted suicide was paralyzed due to a car accident, but the mother had a talent for writing and made ends meet by writing articles. Although life was tough, they managed to get by.
Moreover, she was usually optimistic and no one could have guessed why she would consider taking her own life.
Luckily, her apartment was not on a high floor, and by chance, she fell into a passing garbage truck, so she only suffered minor external injuries.
Yet, even after being saved, she seemed like a soul lost from its body, motionless, just quietly shedding tears, as if her heart had died.
Through the information in the group, Pingping found out the reason behind her action.
She had tried her luck with cryptocurrency.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
And it happened to be with Hot Dog Coin.
At that time, Hot Dog Coin was touted as the new source of wealth for the era, and urgently needing money to buy medicine for her son, she heeded some people’s promotions and invested some money into it.
Initially, things went well and fueled by capital, Hot Dog Coin’s value rose nearly tenfold. Confirming that she could cash out, she kept increasing her bet, even borrowing money to invest, only to lose it all in the end.
Upon hearing the news that the promoters had fled, she couldn’t cope and ultimately jumped.
Upon learning of this event, Pingping immediately donated this month’s livestream income, but for the mother at this point, the money was just a drop in the bucket.
Even though she had done all she could, Pingping still didn’t feel happy.
Even if she hid her emotions well, her viewers could tell something was wrong when she played games during her streams.
[Pingping, what’s wrong? You seem off today.]
[Yes, your mind wandered seven times and you spaced out five times. Your smile is three millimeters less curved. Looks like something’s bothering you.]
[Guys above, even though I also noticed that Pingping seems troubled, your observational skills are kind of creeping me out.]
Pingping wanted to change the subject, but realizing that all her fans had noticed, she sighed and then spoke about the incident.
Afterwards, she immediately said, “I don’t want to capitalize on this situation, nor do I want you guys to send donations because of it. I will find my own way to help them, and I hope you won’t worry about it.]
[How can we not worry about it!]
[Yes! Trading coins is one thing, but this is clearly a scam! Can’t something be done?]
[Not easy to deal with, especially not in North America. This isn’t some place in the south where natural wonders sprout weapons from the ground.]
[So, there’s nothing that can be done?]
[It seems there might be nothing. Plus, I saw on the news that the founder of Hot Dog Coin has started issuing a new cryptocurrency in North America called S Coin. And with the funds he scammed before, the scale this time is even larger.]
[…This is an outright mockery!]
The audience in the livestream was indignant, but from the current situation, it seemed they really didn’t have a means to respond.
Just when everyone felt helpless, a user who usually lurked but often donated large sums as Boss suddenly spoke up.
[Has that S Coin started circulating?]
[Yes, it’s out there, but probably just another scam.]
[Good that it has. So, who wants to join me in giving them a dose of their own medicine?]
Looking at Black Tech’s message, the audience became puzzled.
Give them a taste of their own medicine?
Me?
