The male supporting character was actually myself.

Wang Yiyun never expected that exposing such a shameful thing would turn out to be completely useless, and might even send him to prison for a few more years.

"It's over, it's completely over!" All the strength in his body seemed to have been suddenly drained away, and he slumped onto the sofa, his face ashen.

Jiang Chen fiddled with his phone and pressed, "Where did Jin Chenxi buy the card? Can you get the account back? As long as you can log into the account and find the chat history, you can turn the tables."

"It's gone..." Wang Yiyun shook her head dejectedly.

Jin Chenxi bought the card online, and the online banking transaction was delivered to a hotel in the city. In order to leave no trace, he used all false information.

The account is automatically logged in using the mobile phone number, and login on a computer is also done by scanning a QR code with the mobile phone number.

After the card was destroyed, you need a text message to log in again, but he had bought it two years ago, changed three mobile phones and two laptops, so there were no transaction records and it was impossible to find the original owner to replace the card.

Moreover, at the time, the entire internet was frantically digging up information about Jin Chenxi. He had cleared all records before destroying that card, so how easy would it be to find the account and restore the data now?

"No wonder Li Fan's counterattack was so reckless. If I'm not mistaken, he's the one who told you to destroy all the evidence, right?" Jiang Chen tapped his finger lightly on the table, wondering if the little dumpling could recover the records.

If that doesn't work either, then we'll have to see if Peng Ziyang can find the original owner of Jin Chenxi's card, get a replacement card, and then log in to restore the data...

Wang Yiyun hung her head, looking half-dead, and said weakly, "I met Li Fan on the Yuexiu Dou platform. At that time, I had just tried to transform into a live streamer who sings and plays instruments and showed her face. I didn't know anything about makeup or filters."

Li Fan saw me while casually scrolling through videos, so he followed me and we chatted occasionally.

Then he asked me out...

He taught me how to buy the cards, and the cards he used to contact me were also bought. I admit I was vain and only wanted to make easy money. At first, I thought that by hooking up with Li Fan, he could make me a social media influencer and earn a lot of money.

But he refused... He said..."

After his bottom line was repeatedly crossed, he seemed to have lost his initial sense of shame. His tone of voice was flat and monotone, as if he were talking about something that had nothing to do with him. "He said he could support me and didn't want me to fawn over other people in front of the camera."

I got a lot of money from him, and then... I guess he always heard me complaining that other internet celebrities could become famous by using scripts and hype, but Li Fan... At the time, I thought it was just something he said casually, but now I think it was probably a deliberate attempt to get me to talk. He said that if he was in a bad mood, he should vent it by buying a card, registering a new account, and cursing those internet celebrities he didn't like.

They also said that since it's online and the account isn't theirs, no one will know their real identity and they can vent freely.

Then... after all, he is the boss of Yuexiu Dou, and I was afraid that criticizing the internet celebrities under his management would upset him, so I picked out internet celebrities from other platforms to criticize.

After I first criticized a rising internet celebrity on the Kuaishou platform, Li Fan was very happy and gave me a pair of limited-edition sneakers, saying that I had stood up for him.

After that... he became even less willing to promote me, saying that if I became an internet celebrity, my identity as an online troll would be too obvious and expose my identity.

I only learned about the sniper plan long after I became Jin Chenxi.

I had a couple of drinks at the restaurant, and Li Fan told me that he had always wanted to make Yuexiu Dou the number one live streaming platform in China, but Nan Dou and Bei Kuai had joined forces to monopolize the industry. He had recruited several subordinates, but none of them could perfect the plan, until Qian Hongjuan quickly understood his ideas and submitted a very comprehensive and detailed proposal.

Li Fan didn't tell me that he gave Qian Hongjuan shares. He only said that he wanted Qian Hongjuan to carry out the plan and be the one to take the lead. He said I only needed to operate in the dark and destroy all the evidence if I was exposed. He would do his best to cover for me.

"If the plan succeeds and Yuexiu becomes the top boss, he... he said he wouldn't treat me unfairly..."

Wang Yiyun covered her face with her hands, her voice trembling with tears, "I'm sorry, Jiang Chen, I'm so sorry! I really didn't mean to drag you down with me, but I was really desperate at the time. Li Fan said he could protect me, but there had to be a scapegoat."

I can't find anyone else to frame, I... I'm just too scared..."

Only now, as a scapegoat, has he come to his senses.

The other party had prepared a backup plan from the beginning, and only I was a fool to believe his promise! I recorded those videos, thinking I could use them as leverage to blackmail Li Fan into fulfilling his promise, or else I would fight to the death and ruin his reputation.

I was so confused and stupid!

"Is this the naive thinking of a college student like you? You think this kind of video can ruin Li Fan's reputation and blackmail him?" Jiang Chen looked at him with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot and sighed, "Are you naive or have you watched too many brainless dramas? The conversation didn't touch on any key points. What good would it do if something that was consensual was exposed?"

Qian Hongjuan, hands on her hips, eyes red with anger, sneered and mocked, "He probably felt ashamed if it were exposed and people found out, and he also thought that Li Fan thought the same way as him."

"Stupid people are beyond saving; good luck to you. I need to contact a lawyer immediately to clear my name."

She turned to Wei Jiangchen for help, saying, "We can't count on Wang Yiyun. With the current evidence, it's difficult to bring down Li Fan. We can only take a gamble. I have my own lawyer who can help."

Don't worry, as long as I can get Jianyun Manor involved and clear that I was drugged and framed, I will definitely bring out all the evidence and do everything I can to implicate Li Fan! If not…”

Qian Hongjuan paused for a few seconds and said fiercely, "I can give you a clue: investigate Yuexiudou's tax issues. As far as I know, even before the company's transformation, Li Fan relied on malicious competition and tipping to promote his contracted internet celebrities and attract popularity. Yuexiudou's internal accounts have always been falsified and cannot withstand scrutiny."

However, I cannot provide you with more specific data right now. Since this is a collaboration, I need to see your capabilities before proceeding to the next step.

Even if I take the blame, I won't be convicted and imprisoned anytime soon; we can still talk.

Damn it, you dare to scheme against me?

Li Fan, just you wait and see! I'll fight to the death, or I'll lose my job!

Chapter Eleven: Upholding Public Legal Education to the End

"Let's call the police first to extract the residue from the water bottle, have it tested, and preserve the evidence; we should also call the police to deal with the privacy breach caused by being secretly filmed." Jiang Chen had enough clues and was too lazy to deal with the two of them anymore.

At this point, all the dirty thoughts and malicious plans have been exposed, and it's time to put an end to the cyberbullying incident.

Jianyun Mountain Villa quickly became a hit.

Of course, the first ones were the ones with a bad reputation, such as installing cameras in guest rooms to secretly film guests and then posting the footage online. Even the so-called most upscale private club in Fuyu City could not guarantee the privacy of its guests, and the issue of being secretly filmed while staying at the hotel has once again become a hot topic.

Suddenly, from influential figures to independent media outlets, the issue of being secretly filmed in hotels resurfaced, with calls for legislation to severely punish those who install hidden cameras, rather than simply imposing a few days of detention even when caught…

Many angry netizens flooded the official account of Jianyun Mountain Villa, demanding that the person in charge provide an explanation.

The PR firm went all out to push it to the top of the trending searches, but soon after, at Jiang Chen's suggestion, they quickly changed their tune.

First of all, Jianyun Manor reacted extremely quickly. After noticing the signs, their official account did not make excuses or pretend to be dead, but directly stepped forward to respond.

Secondly, a notice was issued to cooperate with the police investigation, without concealing management issues, and the list of suspicious individuals who entered the club on the day of the police investigation was directly published.

The swift action and response greatly increased the goodwill of many initially angry netizens towards Jianyun Mountain Villa.

In particular, the evidence released by the other party fully proves that the internal clubhouse is indeed safe enough and there are no cameras installed inside—after all, the video circulating online was taken from outside the window.

Bringing filming equipment into the clubhouse is not illegal in itself.

However, the fact that Wang Yiyun and Qian Hongjuan didn't draw their curtains and were secretly photographed by some malicious individuals has little to do with Jianyun Villa. It's like someone buying a knife at a supermarket and using it to attack someone; you can't blame the supermarket for selling knives.

With the police's approval, Jianyun Villa wrote a series of information into a notice that could not be released.

Data records show that Wang Yiyun and Qian Hongjuan were secretly photographed using Li Fan's registration information to enter the club. At the same time, another suspect carrying a professional camera also used Li Fan's registration information to enter the club.

Furthermore, the suspect swiped his card to enter and exit the club four times that day: at 10:00 AM, he entered the club; at 10:10 AM, he swiped his card to open the access control of the small villa that Li Fan had booked inside the club; at 10:30 AM, he left the club; at 11:00 AM, he swiped his card to enter the club again; and at 12:20 PM, he swiped his card to leave.

The other party was clearly aware of the club's internal surveillance layout. Apart from the overall image of him entering and exiting, which was obscured, he hardly walked along the main road after entering the club. The surveillance cameras only captured a fleeting glimpse of him near the small villa that Li Fan had booked.

Finally, Jianyun Mountain Villa openly admitted that in order to protect the privacy of its members, there were fewer hidden surveillance cameras. They acknowledged that there were indeed loopholes in their management and would weigh the pros and cons to make improvements in the future, ensuring that similar situations would never happen again.

They stated that the membership supplementary card was originally intended as a benefit to facilitate members bringing their families on vacations; each member could apply for a supplementary card for their family members after paying a certain fee. They never expected it would be exploited by malicious individuals who repeatedly entered the villa and tampered with it.

The main reason for the leak of the indecent video was that the club had too few surveillance cameras, and the security personnel failed to discover it in time.

Jianyun Villa stated that it will make great efforts to rectify the situation and thanked a member who wished to remain anonymous for providing strong evidence for the police to solve the case.

"This announcement was swift and packed with valuable information; it shows great sincerity!"

"Let's sort this out carefully. So, on that day, three people used a supplementary card issued by Li Fan, the boss of Yuexiu Dou Club, to enter the club. One of them even went into the villa and tampered with things. Then, the video of Qian Hongjuan and Wang Yiyun 'dating' was leaked?"

The phrase "tampering with things" is intriguing and suggests it's more than just filming a video, haha!

"Qian Hongjuan's personal account has been updated, and the information she released is even more explosive!"

"Holy crap? It started with the gossip about Jin Chenxi, and in just a few days, it's been a series of twists and turns. The more gossip we hear, the more we find, and the bigger the story gets. It's getting more and more outrageous!"

"I heard it involves a business war, but my understanding of a business war is about seizing company seals, cutting off power, bosses personally going undercover, or even directly tearing each other apart. Why does this Yuexiu battle seem a bit off?"

“There are call records to prove that Qian Hongjuan and Wang Yiyun were both lured to Jianyun Villa by Li Fan; the police found suspected ‘psychedelic drug’ ingredients in the villa; and the photos were secretly taken and spread online. These two must have been set up!”

"Wei Jiangchen is live streaming again, and she's still battling it out on Yuexiu! Rumor has it she'll reveal a lot of inside information, hurry up and check it out!"

"Waaaaah, honey, I'm here! Wait for me!"

"I'm not eating melons anymore, I'm going to look at handsome guys. Melons can't quench my thirst like handsome men..."

…………

Online undercurrents are surging, one wave after another.

"Damn it, what kind of work are you doing? How did someone manage to find out and take pictures?" Li Fan, who was best informed, was furious when he saw the photos provided by a helpful member who wished to remain anonymous. He immediately called the photographer, "You'd better pack your things and run! I'll transfer the money to you. Remember, get out of the country as quickly as possible and don't come back until I've sorted things out!"

The other party had just completed a big deal, taken the money, and was drinking and chatting with a few girls about the origins of life. He was completely immersed in a life of extravagance and debauchery when he received the call and heard Li Fan shouting. He was stunned and waved to the girls to turn off the deafening music. He was a beat slow to react and asked, "Brother Fan, what did you say? It was too noisy and I didn't hear you clearly."

Li Fan was furious. He slammed his fist on the table and yelled, "Qian Hongjuan called the police! You're so clumsy, you got caught and someone even took pictures. The police are after you now! Run, or you'll be going to jail!"

"Holy crap!" The photographer shoved the girl sitting on him aside, got up, and rushed upstairs to pack up his valuables and prepare to run away.

Jiang Chen sat calmly at his large desk, patiently answering questions from viewers in the live stream.

"The photographer who took the photos at Jianyun Villa has definitely broken the law. This is a very typical case of peeping, taking photos without permission, eavesdropping, and disseminating other people's privacy, which constitutes an infringement of personal rights."

For minor offenses, the offender may be detained for up to five days or fined up to 500 yuan.

For more serious offenses, the offender shall be detained for not less than five days but not more than ten days and fined not more than 500 yuan.

But his situation goes beyond just taking photos without consent; don't forget there's also the crime of disseminating obscene materials. The video on the internet was maliciously uploaded and disseminated by the photographer through a link to Jianyun Mountain Villa. Whether it's classified as serious or particularly serious depends on the impact of its dissemination.

If the circumstances are serious, the sentence will be three to ten years and a fine will be imposed.

In cases of particularly serious offenses, the sentence may be more than ten years or even life imprisonment, along with a fine or confiscation of property.

In addition, the situation is even more complicated because the police were able to find enough evidence to prove that the photographer put the 'psychedelic drug' in the water..."

[Little Meow Meow sends a cute cat kiss to the host who is giving a public legal education presentation!]

While Jiang Chen was earnestly explaining the law in the live stream, the fluffy little dumpling was supporting its round, slightly red face with one paw and slapping the screen with the other, sending gifts to its host.

Originally, it wanted to spend money to make its host a big internet celebrity, but then the host came back and said that Qian Hongjuan had internal data on Yuexiu Dou platform's accounting fraud and tax evasion. How could it tolerate this?

They have to be shut down!

In a fit of anger, the little white cat only boosted data without spending any money, waiting for the unusually large amount to attract the attention of relevant departments.

After an hour-long live stream ended, Jiang Chen glanced at the data and saw that the peak number of online viewers had reached 60 million, and the backend donation data had accumulated to more than 3 million, of which 99% were contributed by Rongtuanzi.

"Hiccup!" The little white cat wobbled into the study with slightly tipsy cat steps, jumped onto the table and struck a seductive pose, propping its face up with one paw and chuckling, "If I wasn't worried that the reward effects would always cover up the host's magnificent good looks, I could have given away even more! Host, the script isn't going to be updated anytime soon, what are you planning to do next?"

The laws of this mission world... seem to be the most lenient of all modern settings.

According to the law, even though Wang Yiyun framed someone and committed murder, his final sentence would only be less than three years. If he behaves well, he could get a reduced sentence and be released early.

If we hadn't transmigrated here, the original owner would have been framed and forced to his death!

*Hiccup* Meow got angrier the more she thought about it. She couldn't let him off so easily! And that Qian Hongjuan, she was so ruthless to come up with such a vicious plan. It would be too lenient for her not to get ten or eight years. People like that, who are utterly evil from the bottom of their hearts, absolutely… absolutely cannot be let go!
