Chapter 218 A person with a guilty conscience cannot stand the test

"People with a guilty conscience usually can't stand being questioned, and it won't be long before they're exposed."

Lin Yi lay down in the chair and began to rest. These trivial matters these days had given him a headache.

Now that I finally have some time to rest, I naturally have to lie down for a while.

But Luo Qinghan listened to Lin Yi's words, thought for a while and became a little worried: "But it feels a bit inappropriate for you to ask the police to investigate these people's homes. After all, didn't you say that you can't charge them with spreading rumors?"

"They didn't say anything about direct conviction and detention. What's wrong with the police coming to your home to investigate? You are indeed suspected of spreading rumors."

"It seems so."

After hearing this, Luo Qinghan was no longer worried and let Lin Yi solve these problems himself.

The next day, Lin Yi received a lot of information about the sources of the smear videos.

He also sent it to Lu Ye.

After collecting a thousand such videos or information, Lin Yi will plan the next step.

On the third day of the New Year's Day holiday, Lu Ye forwarded the three personal information to Lin Yi.

"Li Ran, currently living in Suzhou, has posted a total of 341 malicious smear videos, all of which were original."

"Gu Hao, currently living in Mingzhu, has posted a total of 232 videos and information, most of which were reposts of Li Ran's."

"Liu Kaiwei, currently living in Lingxi, has released a total of 187 videos and information, all of which are original."

These three people posted the most, and the rest mostly forwarded. They can basically be said to be the source of all evil.

These people are quite smart. They used several aliases to post videos, but it is still relatively easy to look up a person's information on the Internet.

Then Lu Ye sent another message: "Mr. Lin, it's difficult for me to find out the exact address of your residence. You have to come here by yourself."

"These are enough. Thank you, Mr. Lu. Please spare some time during the New Year's Day holiday."

Lu Ye is a foreigner, and New Year's Day is very important to him. It is very helpful that he is willing to take time to help Lin Yi.

Lin Yi had to handle the rest by himself.

"I'm going out for a while. I may not be back for dinner tonight."

Lin Yi changed his clothes and went to the door to prepare to leave.

Luo Qinghan immediately sat up from the sofa after hearing this: "Ah? You're not coming back tonight?"

"I'll be back, but it might be late. Eat by yourself if you're hungry."

"Ok."

Luo Qinghan was not in a good mood. Lin Yi had not paid much attention to her during the New Year's Day holiday. Today was the last day, and she didn't expect Lin Yi to go out.

"Then if you are sure you won't be coming back for dinner tonight, remember to tell me."

"Okay, I see."

After saying that, Lin Yi opened the door and went out.

Only Luo Qinghan was left lying on the sofa, holding Garfield and pouting in boredom.

"Ah, Lin Yi is becoming more and more like his father as he keeps busy."

Luo Qinghan began to feel somewhat disgusted with Lin Yi's current appearance.

Her father used to be like this too, always busy no matter what time it was, and he attached great importance to money and career.

But Lin Yi promised her that he would give up everything in the future, so she couldn't say anything.

But now, Luo Qinghan still felt a little empty in his heart, as if he was back to the time when he lived here alone.

If it had always been the same as before, she might not have felt too much.

But she had experienced the life of sticking with Lin Yi every day, and she was not used to the lonely life these days.

On the other side, Lin Yi received a call from Liu Ming who was wearing casual clothes: "Uncle Liu, please come out for a walk during your holiday."

"It's not a problem. I just came out to get some fresh air. This is your father's car, right?" Liu Ming looked at the familiar and simple interior and recognized that it belonged to Lin Ye, not Luo Qinghan.

Lin Yi borrowed his father's car because Liu Ming was a heavy smoker and needed to smoke.

If he drove Luo Qinghan's car, the other party would be embarrassed to smoke.

"Uncle Liu, this is a small New Year's Day gift for you."

As Lin Yi spoke, he took out a red Zhonghua cigarette from the side of the car door and gave it to Liu Ming.

Liu Ming was just about to smoke a cigarette, so he took it without hesitation.

"Let's go to the bureau first and find out the detailed addresses of Li Ran and Gu Hao. As for Liu Kaiwei, forget it. Lingxi is too far away from here."

"okay."

During the holiday, many people in the police station were resting, and only a few on duty were still there.

Liu Ming asked someone to check the public security system and soon found out Li Ran's detailed address. However, since Gu Hao lived in Mingzhu City, he had no right to investigate here and would have to go to Mingzhu later.

After knowing the address, Lin Yi and Liu Ming went to the community where Li Ran lived.

This place is located in the suburbs, a bit remote, and it is a very old five-story building.

Lin Yi knocked on the door, but there was no response.

Then Liu Ming knocked on the door several times.

At this time, a cursing voice came from inside: "Who is it, knocking on the door so early in the morning?"

Hearing the voice, Lin Yi knew that Li Ran was a fat otaku, and it was almost ten o'clock in the morning.

When the door opened, a sloppy fat man appeared in front of them.

"Who are you?"

Li Ran's attitude at the beginning was very arrogant and he didn't take the two of them seriously at all.

Liu Ming didn't waste any words and took out his ID: "Your name is Li Ran, right?"

When he saw that they were policemen, Li Ran's expression changed instantly, with a hint of fear in his expression of respect.

"I am, I am, I don't know what it is."

"You are suspected of spreading rumors online. Please take a written statement."

Liu Ming did not have the power to take Li Ran away now, so he let Li Ran speak orally in the house.

Lin Yi on the side naturally didn't say a word, leaving all these matters to Liu Ming alone.

Just as he expected, Li Ran's forehead was already sweating when he heard the words "online rumor spreading". He alone posted more than 300 slanderous videos.

And many people forwarded it, so the impact would be huge if something really happened.

Based on the social harm caused by spreading rumors, he will have to eat government food for at least fifteen days.

But the people who asked him to make these videos told him that nothing would happen. He never expected that in less than a month, the police would come to his door.

At first Li Ran pretended to be confused, but when Liu Ming asked him step by step, he confessed everything after a while.

People are afraid, which is a big weakness. Li Ran started to feel afraid after knowing that Liu Ming was a policeman, so it was very easy to conquer him.

"It was this person who asked me to post a video that discredited geeks. He said that if I made an original video, he would give me thirty dollars, and then another ten dollars for every ten thousand views."

Li Ran showed Liu Ming a social account.

"Okay, I get it. Don't do such illegal things just for the sake of such petty profits in the future."

"Okay, okay."

After Liu Ming finished taking the statement and put it away, he and Lin Yi got up and left.

Li Ran was still uneasy: "Is there nothing else?"
