Chapter 1348: Something Happened
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Cai Shengnan wasn’t a person who would admit defeat so easily.
Moreover, she had made ample preparations for this time.
Although her previous tricks were inexplicably resolved by the netizens time and time again, she wouldn’t admit defeat just like that.
Cai Shengnan typed quickly on the computer, reprocessed the materials that she had prepared long ago, and wrote another Weibo post in the same tone as the masked blogger.
Truthful Carrot: “Hehe, you guys are too naive. You make it sound like your country’s high officials have never used their power for personal gain.”
Then there were screenshots.
Former Prime Minister Dou: from the beginning to being disgraced.JPG
Former deputy head of the Secret Service Bai Yusheng: from the beginning to the end of defection to the United States. JPG
Former Parliamentary Chief Yang Mou: From the beginning to the end of taking bribes.JPG.”
These were not only the people and events that the netizens were familiar with, but also the people and events that the entire nation was familiar with.
Everyone knew clearly how these high-ranking officials had fallen from power.
For a moment, the situation on Weibo became delicate.
The water army, which liked fueling the flames, naturally began to party.
[ Hahahaha! Whose face is hurting?! ]
[ It’s a slap in the face! Your country’s pills! ]
[ Don’t blabber nonsense every day. Who knows what those high-ranking people are doing behind the scenes?! Why do you trust those high-ranking men so much?! ]
[ Hehe, our imagination is really limited by kindness. We can’t imagine how shady this society is! ]
The silent audience became even more silent.
Because they couldn’t refute these cold facts. Moreover, in everyone’s life, there were more or less some things that weren’t going well. There were also some people who blamed the society.
Who hadn’t been depressed and had things made difficult by their boss?
It could be said that Cai Shengnan’s move had struck a chord with many audience members, and she was able to appropriately arouse everyone’s “empathy”.
The most direct effect was that it diverted the attention of the audience and shut them up.
Once the audience shut up, Weibo became the domain of the internet trolls.
Not only was the Procuratorate’s official Weibo compromised, but even Gu Nianzhi’s nickname, “Cute Little Korgi,” was taken over by the Internet trolls.
From personal attacks to unbridled abuse, they all pounced on “Cute Little Korgi”.
Gu Nianzhi calmly looked at the Weibo posts that were insulting her. She looked at the posts with ulterior motives. Ready to fight back, she took a deep breath and began to organize her words.
Just then, she saw another person’s message on her Weibo page.
A familiar ID popped up under the signature Weibo post “Kindness has hindered my imagination”.
[ Lovely Ma Qiqi ] : OP, you’re imagination has been hindered by kindness. Has kindness also hindered your IQ? ! You even made up a rumor without logic or common sense. Do you think that you can simply change the topic then idly stand by?!!
[ Lovely Ma Qiqi ] : Also, OP, you should first prove that you have ‘kindness’ !
[ Lovely Ma Qiqi ] : What? You can’t prove it? Helpless. JPG. There’s no other way then. Since you can’t prove that you have ‘kindness’, how can you prove that your imagination was hindered by ‘kindness’??! And that your conscience isn’t hindered by malice? Your common sense is hindered by ignorance?!
[ Lovely Ma Qiqi ] : This is the worst time “kindness” has ever been slandered!
Gu Nianzhi’s eyes turned red. She raised an arm and put the back of her hand on her mouth. She wanted to cry and laugh.
As expected of her best friend.
Ma Qiqi had no idea of Gu Nianzhi’s alternate account, but she still rushed forward to cheer for her!
True best friends should be good friends who share the same values, understand, and care for each other.
Gu Nianzhi took a deep breath and changed her Weibo reply again.
She first went to the Weibo post of “Truthful Carrot” and calmly replied.
[ Cute Little Korgi ] :@Truthful Carrot, since you’ve started to change the topic, can I make the conclusion that your previous opinion that # a high-ranking military official’s family stole the family property of a war hero isn’t valid?
Cai Shengnan’s heart skipped a beat when she saw that Weibo reply. How did that person react so quickly?
Just as she was thinking about what to do, Mike could no longer hold it in and replied to Gu Nianzhi himself.
[ Truthful Carrot ] : You’re talking nonsense! ! Why is my opinion not valid?!
[ Cute Little Korgi ] : Then why are you changing the topic?
[ Truthful Carrot ] : When did I change the topic? Can’t you open your eyes and see?!
[ Cute Little Korgi ] : I see you’re talking about the former Prime Minister Dou, the former deputy minister Bai Yusheng, and the former Parliamentary Chief Secretary Yang. Do these people have any connection with the high-ranking military officials you mentioned?
Mike fell silent. Did have any connection? He didn’t know…
Gu Nianzhi waited for a while. Upon seeing that the other party hadn’t replied, she continued writing.
[ I’m telling you, they’re not connected at all. ]
[ The people you mentioned are all ex-high-ranking officials who have been convicted without exception. What does that mean? That means that high-ranking officials were never allowed to do as they pleased. If they broke the law, they would still be punished by the law just like ordinary people. So what is your argument? ]
[ You’re using these people to prove the darkness of society. Are you deliberately pretending to be blind? ! ]
Gu Nianzhi’s reply made the silent netizens feel a little better.
Yes, although there were indeed many unsatisfactory aspects of society, it was constantly evolving and improving.
Every day was better than yesterday.
So why should they give up their home, which had been growing more and more beautiful, just because someone else was trying to sow discord?
Gu Nianzhi couldn’t help smiling as she watched more and more netizens regained their liveliness, liked it, shared it, and even expressed their agreement with Gu Nianzhi and Ma Qiqi.
Her heart felt warm.
This kind of support and encouragement from strangers was her biggest motivation to fight against these trolls.
Gu Nianzhi looked up, took a deep breath, then replied to the ID “Lovely Ma Qiqi” .
[ Cute Little Korgi ] :@Lovely Ma Qiqi, Well said. Like.JPG.
[ We are all ordinary people, and we are the main force of this society. This society is a reflection of us. ]
[ If we aren’t shady, dirty, greedy, and without conscience, then this society isn’t either. ]
Her reply instantly received countless likes and retweets, and it immediately went on Weibo’s trending search.
Cai Shengnan hadn’t even finished thinking about how to continue stirring up trouble when she saw that “Cute Little Korgi” almost set off a wave of excitement on Weibo.
Her expression turned cold, and she immediately picked up her phone and called the troll company. “Take down that trending topic for me! It can be as expensive as you want! I’ll pay!”
The troll company and Weibo’s trending marketing organization were old friends, of course.
Whoever they wanted to put on the trending topic list, they would put on the trending topic list, and whoever they wanted to pull off of the trending topic list, they would pull off of the trending topic.
In any case, as long as they had money, it was fine.
This time, Cai Shengnan’s reaction was quite quick.
The topic with the hashtag #cutelittlekorgi quickly disappeared from the trending search rankings.
Fortunately, the quick-witted netizens had already taken screenshots of the Weibo hot search rankings before and after the disappearance.
Two screenshots clearly showed how the # cute little kooky suddenly disappeared from the hot search rankings as the data continued to climb.
Those who often spent time on Weibo were aware of these tricks, but a small number of netizens who weren’t usually on Weibo and was only attracted over by this incident saw this situation for the first time.
Immediately, the situation blew up.
All sorts of joes about the official hot searches list on Weibo came out one after another.
They successfully overrode the topic that Cai Shengnan had put so much effort into promoting.
Cai Shengnan watched helplessly as the public opinion on Weibo could no longer be controlled. She knew that it would be difficult for her to reverse it this time.
She angrily picked up her phone and dialed the prosecutor’s number again.
This time, after the phone on the other end rang a few times, someone picked up.
“h.e.l.lo, may I know your surname?”
It wasn’t the prosecutor’s voice.
Cai Shengnan became alarmed and asked, “May I know if this is Mr. XX’s phone number?”
She deliberately gave the wrong name.
As expected, the person on the other end said, “No, you have the wrong number.”
“It really isn’t? You are the prosecutor’s office, right? That person told me that his name is XX?”
“Sorry, then he lied to you. This phone number isn’t XX’s phone number, but x.x.x’s phone number.”
The person who answered the phone said the name of the prosecutor.
Cai Shengnan’s heart skipped a beat, and she smiled and said, “Okay, then I was wrong. Thank you.”
She hung up the phone. Her mind raced, and she got a bad feeling.
Thinking of this, she didn’t use her phone. Instead, she used an online IP phone to call the prosecutor’s wife.
This time, she picked up quickly.
Upon hearing the familiar voice of the woman, Cai Shengnan quickly said, “h.e.l.lo, I’m lawyer Cai. May I ask if your husband…”
Upon hearing that it was Cai Shengnan, she immediately said nervously, “You have the wrong number, I didn’t ask for a lawyer.” Then she hung up the phone.
Cai Shengnan was stunned.
Sitting in front of the computer, she maintained the posture of making a phone call and her entire body was frozen.
If she guessed correctly, probably something happened to that prosecutor.
The prosecutor’s wife had recently become familiar with her because of her daughter’s application to a foreign university.
The two of them spoke on the phone several times a day, and they were familiar with each other’s voices.
Just now, she frantically tried to dissociate herself from her.
That was enough to prove that something had happened to the prosecutor.
Cai Shengnan put down her phone and stood up from h computer.
She crossed her arms and paced back and forth in her office with a frown on her face.
At this point, it seemed like she had no choice but to defeat Gu Nianzhi in court.
She had asked her father to get someone to handle the situation in the United States, so they would never be able to trace it back to her and her father.
She wasn’t worried about that.
She was worried about whether the prosecutor would give her up.
They had spoken on the phone quite a few times. Although they hadn’t said anything sensitive on the phone, what if the person dragged her into it?
Cai Shengnan stopped and squinted towards outside of the window.
It was necessary for her to give a little warning to the prosecutor’s family.
If they didn’t want their daughter’s future to be ruined, it was better to be sensible and not involve her.
