[ What on earth! What sort of situation is this?! Is the Imperial XX Institute’s IP fake?! Isn’t it a proxy IP?! ]
[ Oh my god! In my lifetime! He even dared to fake the Procuratorate’s IP? Is that person an idiot?! ]
[ Tsk Tsk, this is very awkward. Blogger, does your family know that you’ve been acting up so much? ]
[ I must say, am I the only one who is paying attention to the blogger’s accusations? If it’s true, then the IP isn’t the main point… ]
Under Mike’s control, there were mass jeers from the bystanders and the efforts of the troll army to pull the topic back on Weibo.
However, in this situation where this Weibo blogger had been deceiving the bystanders again and again, the bystanders refused to fall for it anymore.
The first element of online exposure of complaints was that it must be true.
Once there was doubt, it would immediately backfire.
Because the enthusiasm and feverishness of the masses were taboo to deceive.
Upon seeing the Imperial City Procuratorate’s reply, Mike was also surprised. He quickly withdrew from Weibo to avoid being tracked.
With one hand on the mouse, Mike didn’t know what to do.
Being a hacker was his forte, but he had never been in direct confrontation with a hacked organization.
He didn’t expect these bureaucrats to be so efficient, even more efficient than the United States, right?
In the United States, a complaint call to a government agency was always an automatic message. To get a reply within three days was already fast, and it was common to delay it for a month or two.
It had only been half a day…
Mike’s palms began to sweat.
What should he do?
He immediately contacted Cai Shengnan.
“Lawyer Cai, what should we do? Why was their response so fast? How can we continue to operate this?”
Cai Shengnan bit her lip and frowned as she looked at the bloody mess on Weibo. She was a little worried and said, “Wait a moment, I’ll think of what to do.”
As she spoke, Cai Shengnan dialed the prosecutor’s number.
It had taken her a lot of effort to get in touch with the mole. She wanted to ask him what was going on.
However, the number she had dialed rang for a long time, but no one answered.
What was he doing?
Was he trying to burn the bridge after crossing it?
Cai Shengnan’s brows furrowed even tighter.
After a while, the topic became more and more popular on Weibo. It looked like their accusations were about to be overturned.
How could that be?
If this wasn’t enough to crush Gu Nianzhi, she would have lived all those years in vain.
Cai Shengnan laughed coldly.
Huo Shaoheng, I gave you a chance, but you didn’t take it, so don’t blame me for being ruthless.
She sent a message to Mike. “I’m sending you an email. Check it and do as the email says.”
Mike received the email quickly and skimmed through it. His worried expression immediately changed. He smiled happily and gave Cai Shengnan a thumbs up on the other end of the computer. ‘Lawyer Cai is too impressive!”
After receiving the new order, Mike excitedly logged onto Weibo again and posted the third Weibo post of the day.
[ Truthful Carrot: the family of a certain high-ranking military official is too impressive. He can single-handedly conceal everything! But can you explain why, as the fiancée of the plaintiff’s son, you don’t retreat to avoid suspicion? You just have to dig your head in. Did you really have to be the prosecution’s lawyer? Your country’s laws are practically nonexistent! ——either you break off the engagement or you back away from court. You don’t have a third choice! ]
He didn’t use the imperial capital’s Procuratorate’s IP address anymore. Instead, he used a European proxy IP address.
When the Weibo post was posted on the third day, the spectators, who didn’t mind the fuss, were once again in an uproar.
[ Siring up trouble! Speaking of which, isn’t there a system of testimonial privilege in the law? Or does our court not have one? ]
[ Yes, yes! I remember that there is a system of testimonial privilege. Immediate family members cannot testify in the trial at the same time. What the blogger said makes sense! ]
[ It’s too shady, too shady! How much shadiness are there that we don’t know?! ]
The troll army fueled the flames, and some of the bystanders, who had just been slapped in the face, quickly became excited.
No one was willing to admit that they had made a mistake and stood on the wrong side, so they had to clear themselves of the blame even if they had to bite the bullet.
[ Haha, who was the one who got slapped in the face? Did you guys see it clearly? I have to ask you idiots, do your faces hurt?! ]
Brainwashing the passersby over and over again, these replies were repeatedly posted under all the relevant Weibo posts.
They firmly believed that a lie that was repeated a thousand times would become the truth.
It was true that a small number of people were easily brainwashed, but the vast majority of people had their own judgments of right and wrong.
With a cold expression, Gu Nianzhi watched as the internet trolls continued to party, and changed the topic to her and Huo Shaoheng’s fiancée relationship. She secretly despised them.
She replied directly: [ The law is blind. The principle of testimonial privileges applies to criminal, civil, and administrative proceedings. The targets of testimonial privilege include investigators, prosecutors, judges, clerks, appraisers, and translators. But there has never been a law that requires lawyers to practice testimonial privilege, and the law clearly stipulates that close relatives can be the parties’ defenders and agents to participate in the proceedings. So you are all praising and agreeing with the blogger’s accusation despite it being full of errors and faultiness. You guys are either stupid or vengeful. There’s no other possibility. ]
Stupid because they meddled blindly without knowing the truth.
Vengeful because they stirred up trouble with ulterior motives.
The moment her reply came out, the troll army was both anxious and angry. They immediately tore off their self-righteous masks of justice and started cursing at her. They acted completely different from the righteous audience members that they pretended to be moments before.
In the eyes of the real audience, this drastic change made them flabbergasted.
Was this showing everyone what a “living troll army” was?
There were also the replies that were constantly being copied and pasted, and the mass interaction of the various zombie accounts, all of which revealed the truth.
Gu Nianzhi had a lot of patience.
She took the trouble to flip through the troll accounts in front of the trending comments one by one. She took screenshots of the Weibo posts they had posted over the years and the IP they had used. She then replied to the troll accounts that had the highest number of likes and had made it onto the trending comments’ trending posts, and started to tear off the masks of the moderators layer by layer.
Everyone laughed until their stomachs burst.
Under every troll Weibo post masquerading as a defender of justice, there was their dark history. The dark history of many troll accounts using the same IP in the early years was also exposed.
This was not only awkward, but also shameful.
[ A like for Cute Little Korgi! I have another reason to like Cute Little Korgi! ]
[ Cute Little Korgi, come into my arms and post slowly. Don’t tire your cute little legs out. ]
[ Blogger, you’re so impressive! Can we follow each other? ]
Her popularity amongst the audience was instantly reflected on Gu Nianzhi’s alternate Weibo account. The number of fans on her account skyrocketed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Gu Nianzhi shook her head with some regret.
Since there were too many fans, her fake Weibo account would have to be abandoned.
…
He Zhichu had been nervously paying attention to the internet the entire time. When he saw Gu Nianzhi’s calm and composed counterattacks, he finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she had skinned the other party one by one and used her skills to hit them in the face.
This little girl had really grown up…
Huo Shaoheng found out about the news when its popularity on the internet had died down halfway.
He put down his work and called Gu Nianzhi several times, but no one picked up.
He sent Gu Nianzhi a text message with a simple question mark: ? .
Gu Nianzhi understood immediately and replied, “Don’t worry about it.”
Huo Shaoheng didn’t interfere. Instead, he paid close attention to the developments on Weibo.
When they found out about the internal leak in the prosecutor’s office, the Secret Service asked the Special Operations Forces for help. They asked them to find out exactly who Columbia University’s private scholarship had come from.
Huo Shaoheng immediately instructed the field personnel in New York to cooperate fully with the secret service.
..
Cai Shengnan’s hands were shaking.
Even this couldn’t drive Gu Nianzhi out. Did she really have to stand up against her in court?!
Luo Jialan also called her angrily. “Lawyer Cai, what’s going on? Didn’t you say that she would either give up on Huo Shaoheng or give up on appearing in court?!”
Cai Shengnan’s lips twitched.
Of course, she knew that the recusal system didn’t apply to lawyers. Moreover, in the United States, even judges didn’t have to recuse themselves when it came to family relations.
She was only trying to use the vague concept to fool the masses, to stir up the emotions of the masses, and to create a strong public pressure to force Huo Shaoheng’s superiors and family members to come forward and put pressure on Gu Nianzhi.
This was because when such a thing happened, the higher-ups would usually choose the policy of “turning a big issue into a small one, and turning a small issue into a smaller one.” Cai Shengnan thought that she was very familiar with the political ecology of China.
This practice was also tried and tested in the United States.
But she didn’t expect the Chinese netizens to be so tough that they would refuse to be “fooled” by her?!
