The mysterious D34TH of Chinese actor Yu Menglong continues to stir public suspicion as new details emerge. Recent reports suggest that Beijing’s 798 Art District contains several displays resembling human tissue and personal items, including a blood-stained jacket and a pair of shoes closely resembling those Yu Menglong was seen wearing before his D34TH.

The revelations have ignited global outrage and driven a surge of public support. Within 24 hours, an international petition demanding justice for Yu gained 50,000 new signatures, bringing the total to over 500,000.

Netizens reported that a blood-stained jacket exhibited at the 798 Art Center closely matches Yu’s clothing in color, tailoring, and even the placement of stains. Shoes of similar design also appear to be on display.

Other exhibits reportedly feature materials resembling human organs or skin, allegedly linked to entertainers such as actor Qiao Renliang and martial artist Qiu Feng. Both experienced mysterious D34THs.

Rumors about Qiao Renliang’s 2016 D34TH — officially labeled suicide — have long circulated online, describing torture and postmortem tampering. Witnesses at his funeral noted visible alterations to his body, including a missing arm, a reconstructed head, and an abdomen supported by a plastic casing.

Comparisons shared online suggest that a skull specimen in the 798 exhibit resembles Qiao’s facial structure and ear shape. His clothing and shoes also appear closely resembling those he wore in life, deepening public unease.

The 798 Art District, the Bulgari Hotel, and the Yangguang Shangdong residential complex — where Yu was reportedly last seen — are located within the same area. Many believe this proximity is more than coincidence, and that the displayed remains could be connected to his alleged abuse.

Censorship and online suppression
Over a month after Yu’s D34TH, the case remains one of China’s most censored topics. Despite continuing investigations by independent bloggers, official media coverage is nonexistent, and online engagement appears heavily manipulated.

Yu’s Weibo statistics showed a dramatic collapse: from 38.6 billion views on Oct. 10 to just 54 million three days later — a drop so sharp that analysts say it could only result from state-level interference.

Even so, Chinese netizens continue to share archived screenshots and coded messages to keep Yu’s story visible. “We can’t even type his name freely,” one wrote, “but we are always here.”

As of Oct. 14, the petition on Avaaz calling for a transparent investigation into Yu’s D34TH had surpassed 466,000 signatures, with participation expanding rapidly across Taiwan, the United States, Malaysia, Singapore, and other countries. Some mainland Chinese users reportedly scaled the Great Firewall to sign in defiance of the ban. Now, signatures surpass 500,000.

Self-media commentator “David’s Viewpoint” reported that a rally was held on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame, where more than ten volunteers distributed flyers and displayed banners for Yu Menglong. The action drew strong support from passersby and international tourists.

David noted that the Chinese authorities are spending heavily to suppress coverage and to discourage overseas outlets from reporting on the case. Nevertheless, the petition’s growth demonstrates rising public awareness and cross-border solidarity.

“Once the number of signatures passes half a million,” he said, “major media outlets like the BBC and AP will have no choice but to pay attention. Then the pressure for justice will become global.”

Voices of support
Messages of gratitude flooded social platforms:

“So thankful to everyone signing for Yu Menglong — and to the volunteers in Hollywood for keeping his name alive.”

“When I signed, it was just 30,000 signatures. Now it’s 360,000 — thank you, everyone!”

“Wishing the petition reaches 600,000 soon, so justice can finally be done.”

Many Chinese users echoed the same sentiment from behind the Great Firewall:

“We may be silenced here, but the truth keeps spreading. Love and compassion are stronger than fear. Little Fish — we will never give up on you.”
