Rebirth in Showbiz: How to Win the Showbiz Emperor's Heart?-Chapter 358: Instigation
Qian Cun was beaten into a coma, unaware of what the police were saying, and was handcuffed, ready to be taken to the police station.
"Hold on!"
Tong Yan took a basin of water from the kitchen and splashed it directly on him, instantly waking him up.
She curled her lips, her voice icy, "Speak up, who exactly told you to do this?"
Qian Cun was still dazed and didn’t know what was happening. For no reason at all, he got beaten up, and he felt a burning anger inside, but he dared not act out. He was just too scared; he couldn’t possibly fight back.
It was terrifying.
Especially when questioned in her cold tone, Qian Cun felt even more timid and fearful. He shook his head, "I don’t know, as long as the money is transferred to my account, I’m responsible for using machines to flood the comments, I don’t care about anything else."
"How do you usually get in touch?" Tong Yan pressed.
Qian Cun gave a QQ number. He regretted it now, no amount of money was worth more than one’s life. He thought he had met a fairy, only to find a grim reaper instead.
Although what they were doing was skirting the edge of the law, sometimes it was outright criminal. But it was so commonplace that no one really reported it to the police, never expected to hit a dead end this time.
Tong Yan’s eyes narrowed, "Even though you were just doing it for the money and it wasn’t your intent, the fact that you put those dirty words on a child means you deserve this outcome."
Her Xiao Zhi was so innocent.
Tong Yan turned and solemnly saluted the police officers, "Thank you."
The officers returned the gesture, serious yet smiling slightly, "Serving the people."
Then, the officers took Qian Cun out.
Tong Yan sat down at the computer and saw the malicious comments still pouring in about Xiao Zhi. She closed the software, and since Qian Cun’s QQ was still logged in, she used the provided QQ number to find the contact, which was a newly registered account, all very fresh.
Usually, for such business, to avoid exposing themselves, they would not reveal their phone numbers or anything, just use newly registered social accounts, and people like Qian Cun would just do the job for money.
This is why this industry was becoming more rampant, and there were countless people like Qian Cun.
Tong Yan contacted the other party, who surprisingly responded quickly.
Tong Yan: Are you there? I have something to discuss with you.
Other party: What is it?
Tong Yan: Recently I’ve noticed someone investigating me, I’m afraid I can’t complete this job, how about I refund your money?
Other party: No need, I’ll add two hundred thousand more, figure it out yourself.
Tong Yan: Okay.
Other party: The money has been transferred, check it.
Tong Yan picked up the phone and said to Yin Weiyi, "Yiyi, the other party took the bait, check the latest transaction on Qian Cun’s account."
From this record, checking the other party’s information, remittance location, IP address, would be much simpler.
Yin Weiyi’s family had a political background, making the investigation easy.
In the end, before hearing back from Yin Weiyi, she unexpectedly heard from the movie star.
His message was, as always, brief: two simple words: Zuo Yi.
Tong Yan considered every possibility; she never expected it to be Zuo Yi.
How could it be him?
He was clearly such a cute little boy, how could he do such a malicious thing?
Tong Yan didn’t want to believe it, yet she had no choice.
The movie star had no reason to lie to her.
Several days later, Tong Yan brought Zuo Yi and his manager to court. On the day of the hearing, many people attended.
