Tang Daqing felt very curious about why his son, who rarely took the initiative to beg him, called him today to say he suspected someone in the high rankings of his alma mater, Capital Music University, was acting illegally.
What was more magical was, Tang Daqing didn’t even have a chance to ask Tang Tu what happened before his boss suddenly called a short meeting after the lunch break. His boss said he was going to send professionals to have pop-up assessments for one week about protocols at the top universities in the capital, mainly testing the management ranks and cutting off all illegal actions.
Tang Daqing couldn’t wrap his head around it. His secretary told him that, in the morning, a young man came to visit the boss. The boss had a big smile on and was in quite a good mood. The pair had a long chat in the meeting room that lasted for the entire morning, and they also had lunch together at noon.
Tang Daqing asked his secretary who the young man was.
The secretary shook his head, for he also had no idea who the young man was, “I only know this man’s last name is ‘Yu’.”
Almost at the same time, the initially took-down and censored posts, Wei Bo uploads, and news on the internet all popped out again within just a blink.
All the netizens felt confused.
“Don’t tell me the internet admin’s computer got hacked by a hacker?”
“I also feel like they got hacked. Probably some Godly hacker felt it was too unfair and got in the system for the Hanfu Goddess.”
“They will probably be gone again later.”
…
However, more than ten minutes passed… An hour passed… These contents were still there.
Finally, the shrewd netizens realized,
“There is always a higher mountain!”
TL’s Note: This is saying there’s always someone who has higher power or is richer than the other.
Someone more impressive than Zhu Xiyang had appeared!
On the next morning, a gang friend of Zhu Xiyang’s knocked his door, “Bro, I brought some good stuff over. This product is better than yesterday’s.”
Zhu Xiyang was way too high from yesterday night, and he was still sleeping. However, when he heard of there being good “stuff”, he got completely refreshed. Randomly picking up a towel and wrapping it around his body, he went to open the door.
How could he have expected that, as soon as he let the door crack open, a group of police rushed in and pushed him onto the ground? Zhu Xiyang didn’t even have the time to react before both of his hands got handcuffed.
Wang Nina, who was still sleeping on the bed, got woken up. She was entirely naked and was screaming crazily. A female officer wrapped her body with the bedsheets, and another police mercilessly handcuffed her, too.
The room was full of a rotten smell. On the floor next to the bed, a few tools with unknown uses and spots of white powder could be seen clearly.
“Capital City Police Department”s’ Wei Bo sent an inconspicuous police notice on that day, “After receiving information from a citizen’s report, we caught two junkers and more than 140 grams of heroin in the XXX numbered high-tiered apartment in the XX compound.”
This piece of news, at that time, did not attract much attention because “Capital City Police Apartment”, the official Wei Bo account for the police department, sent similar posts every day to remind the netizens of what the police did every day.
Until that night, someone anonymously exposed information on Wei Bo,
“I know that person named Zhu Xiyang in the Hanfu Goddess’s audio recording. I live in Boston, America. He never tells us his Chinese name in our society, so we all called him Kevin.
I guess every Chinese-American in Boston knows Kevin. His reputation is stinkier than smelly fish. We don’t know about his past, but we do know he has a lot of money. We’ve never seen him done any good things. He has not treated his studies as important at all, he’s a spendthrift, he enjoys promiscuous sex, and he hosts junkers’ gatherings. According to what I know, he has been sent to detox three times already. I think he is very polite with this Hanfu Goddess already. If she was in the US, he would’ve probably directly r*ped her.”
After this exposing post, the authenticity of the recording between Liu Man and Zhu Xiyang was even more confirmed, and it proved Liu Man and Li Xiaoru were not talking nonsense.
The internet was powerful. Soon, netizens who lived in the same compound as Zhu Xiyang sent a Wei Bo to claim that the two junkers mentioned in “Capital City Police Department”s’ previous post were, indeed, Zhu Xiyang and Wang Nina.
Which meant the two had fallen into the inferno, and there was no possibility of their comeback.
At the same time, some netizens asked sharply: How could Zhu Xiyang have so much money to spend so wastefully in America? Wasn’t his father just an already-retired assistant-department-leveled leader? His salary number had always been publicized.
On the second day after Zhu Xiyang and Wang Nina got arrested, Zhu Xiyang’s father got arrested by the procuratorate under the title of “acceptance of bribery” and “misappropriating public funds”. With the carrot came the mud. At the same time, Vice-Principal Li, the Dean, the director of the piano major, and other similar staff were either under detention and interrogation or suspended and investigated. They were all related to the former Principal, Principal Zhu, so they were his closest hatchet men.
TL’s Note: With the carrot came the mud — A saying that means when a criminal gets exposed, other criminals related to this criminal also get revealed.
The higher ranks started investigating the entire leadership rankings in the capital’s famous universities with this surprising corruption case in the music university as a prelude. At once, all the leaders all became discreet with their words and actions. They had better attitudes when faced with students’ requests and litigations; they were afraid they would get exposed on the internet if any student got evidence of bad deeds of theirs.
Zhu Xiyang was jokingly nicknamed by the netizens as “the biggest fraud cheater in history”.
Although Principal Zhou Yun did not get affected, he did get called by his superiors to have a conversation that lasted for a few hours, and he wrote a reflection containing tens of thousands of Chinese characters.
The show featuring the standoff between Liu Man, by herself, and the entire school had completely come to an ending.
On that afternoon, Liu Man received a transferring notice from Capital University. She gladly showed Zhang Pei the notice, and Zhang Pei was finally assured completely.
At the same time, Liu Man took a photo of the notice and sent it to both Yu Zhan and Li Xiaoru through WeChat.
Li Xiaoru replied: “666666, you’re doing better and better!”
Yu Zhan’s phone rang. He set a special notification sound for Liu Man, and he knew it was a WeChat message from her just by the noise.
He took out his phone and saw the picture, and a tacit smile came on her face.
At this time, he was enjoying afternoon tea with an elder. The elder saw his expression and knew, “It’s a message from that girl, right?”
Yu Zhan nodded, “She has, just now, showed me her transferring notice from Capital University.”
“She came to this step all by herself. She’s calm, insightful, and braver than most of the others. Sure enough, she’s unique.”
Mediocre girls might have started crying already if they’ve met this kind of incident, and they would not know what to do. The elder knew about Liu Man’s every action on the internet, and he knew Liu Man’s successful transferring to Capital University was not, at all, related to Yu Zhan or himself.
They were only the pushers, in the end, to make the entire incident end successfully. He could also mercilessly punish the malpractices in the capital universities through the Zhu Xiyang incident. He also received a lot.
“No wonder you came to find me for her. Even without your help, she would’ve been able to solve this by herself. I have to thank her. If it’s not for her, today we still won’t have known that you’ve already come back to China. In the bunch of boys, you are the one who has the quietest personality, and you don’t like to flaunt at all.”
Yu Zhan said, “I like living a normal person’s life.”
“What’s your plan for the future? Are you going to long-termed stay in the capital?”
“That’s my temporary plan.”
The elder knew very clearly. As long as Liu Man was here, Yu Zhan would not leave. He wasn’t Yu Zhan’s father, and he didn’t have the right to interfere with Yu Zhan’s love life. Since he liked that girl, then let him be. As for the girl’s morality, they would be able to see through her after some days.
“That’s good. You should come to visit my place more often.”
Yu Zhan accepted with a smile, but on the inside, he felt helpless. He had predicted a long time ago that, as soon as he made contact with these elders, he would never get away from them.
