Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1344 - Spreading Rumors Requires Common Sense as well

Chapter 1344: Spreading Rumors Requires Common Sense as well

Gu Nianzhi quickly packed her suitcase and bid Xie Shenxing farewell.

“Uncle-in-law, I have some urgent matters to attend to at home. Thank you for your hospitality. I’ll buy you a meal after I’m done with my business,” Gu Nianzhi felt very apologetic and gave Xie Shenxing a deep bow.

Xie Shenxing was a little surprised and quickly held her up. “Nianzhi, what’s wrong? Who gave you such a hard time? Fufu, tell me, I’ll help you teach them a lesson!”

As he said that, he gave all his staff and the caretakers at the villa an extremely stern look.

The people were shocked and quickly said, “Miss Gu, please forgive us if we’ve done anything wrong. Please let us know which area needs improvement. We’ll definitely improve!”

They did not actually deny it, but immediately apologized and looked for ways to improve.

If you talked about the service industry, this kind of operation was rather professional. It was so much more stable than those people on Weibo who threw the blame to someone else when they encountered a problem.

Gu Nianzhi secretly admired the ability of the Xie family’s managers, and she immediately said, “Uncle-in-law, you’re worrying too much. It’s not them. They didn’t treat me badly. On the contrary, they took care of me very well, and I have no objections. Fufu, I really have some work that I need to do, and I need to go back immediately to deal with it.”

As Xie Shenxing saw that Gu Nianzhi wasn’t forcing herself to say that, he then nodded. “Okay, I trust you. Do you need help?”

Gu Nianzhi smiled and shook her head. “I’ll deal with it myself first. If I can’t, I’ll come and tearfully whine about it to uncle-in-law again!”

She made a gesture of wiping away her tears, which made everyone laugh.

The tense atmosphere was gone in an instant.

Xie Shenxing called a car over to take her back.

Huo Shaoheng left last night and did not stay at Xie Shenxing’s place.

Therefore, if Gu Nianzhi wanted to go back at this time, the Xie family would have to call a car over to take her back.

Gu Nianzhi gave the driver an address – it was her second-hand apartment in Hepingli Precicnt.

The driver did not ask her any questions and dutifully sent her over.

He Zhichu found the trending topic on Weibo this morning. He had wanted to give Gu Nianzhi a call, but on second thought, this was also a good learning opportunity for Gu Nianzhi, so he refrained himself and did not call her. Instead, he quietly gathered information himself.

If Gu Nianzhi couldn’t handle it, then it wouldn’t be too late for him to make his move either.

...

Gu Nianzhi returned to her long-awaited two-bedroom suite in Hepingli. Only then did her tensed body relax.

She composed herself, put down her suitcase, and entered the bedroom with her laptop.

She placed the laptop on the desk in the bedroom, turned it on, and quickly connected to the internet.

Her impetuous heart quickly calmed down.

She focused all her attention onto the computer screen. On the blue screen, lines of commands flashing with white lights were quickly typed out from between her fingers.

Once she entered the internet, she was the queen, and she was the ruler.

The internet here was crisscrossed. Countless pieces of information and data were cross-collected and gathered on the internet. She was unhindered and invincible.

This time, she didn’t even use the special network account that Huo Shaoheng had given to her. She gritted her teeth and only used the community’s network system. From here, she used a VPN to climb over the wall and connect to the external network.

Her VPN was actually a small program that she had made herself. It could bypass the wall and directly log into foreign websites.

After a big loop, her IP address had already disappeared into the vast network.

Only an IP account from a public library in a major European city, was logged into the Weibo system.

The Weibo account Gu Nianzhi was using was an alternate account that she created.

She used this account to hack into the Weibo system to find the Weibo account that had posted that Weibo post in the beginning and deleted it afterwards.

Gu Nianzhi couldn’t help but laugh when she checked the account’s login IP from the background.

When creating rumours, some common sense and education was necessary, otherwise it would be an insult to that person’s IQ.

Of course, some people would just listen to the rumor and wouldn’t bother thinking about it. They were used to being led around by the nose, and would welcome people to insult their IQ daily.

Gu Nianzhi tapped her fingers lightly and took a screenshot of the person’s IP address.

The IP address showed that the person who posted the Weibo post was living in a small town in Australia.

What happened to staying at the Imperial Procuratorate’s compound?

Although Gu Nianzhi believed that the IP address was not the real IP address of the person who posted the Weibo post, but this sock puppet IP address was enough for her to write about it for a while.

Gu Nianzhi smiled faintly but did not stop there.

She cracked the IP address one after another and used reverse programming to trace the source. Finally, she found the person’s real IP address!

Just as she has expected that person’s real IP address was in New York, the United States.

Gu Nianzhi once again saved a screenshot of the real IP address.

Then, Gu Nianzhi began to use a Trojan virus program to attack the network provider where the real IP address was located.

The attacks coming from Gu Nianzhi’s virus program were intense and ruthless. Very quickly, she paralyzed the network in that area where the real IP address was located.

Many New Yorkers wouldn’t even bother opening their web page, let alone go online.

The speed of the internet seemed to have instantly returned to the early days, when everyone used a 14KBPS modem to connect to the internet over a phone line.

Even Mike, who was viewing the spectacular event at Huaxia Empire’s Weibo page, noticed that the Weibo page was suddenly not moving at all. The small circle in the upper right corner kept spinning, but it just couldn’t load new content.

“What the f*ck!” Mike cursed as he tried to pin down the internet speed, only to discover that it was only 14KB per second!

F*ck, he was furious!

This was even slower than a snail!

He picked up his phone and called the internet provider, but the line was busy, indicating that the number of people calling had exceeded their capacity.

Gu Nianzhi didn’t know who the person on the other end was, but she knew that it was definitely Cai Shengnan’s helper, so she decided to stop the internet speed on the other end once and for all, so that the person wouldn’t be able to stir up trouble on Huaxia Empire’s internet for the time being.

...

At Luo Jialan’s villa in the West Mountains, Cai Shengnan had already bailed her out. They sat in front of a laptop, smiling as they read the comments on Weibo about Gu Nianzhi.

They did not make a move. After Mike posted the initial post, the rest was left to Cai Songyin’s old internet company for them to spread the word.

“Great Lawyer Cai, what a brilliant move!” Luo Jialan’s eyes were beaming. She did not expect Cai Shengnan to be so capable.

Her six million dollars had been well spent!

Cai Shengnan smiled, and said “This was just a small test. If she doesn’t give up, I still have a backup plan.”

Luo Jialan clapped her hands and laughed, “I have to give it to you! If Gu Nianzhi doesn’t give up on being the prosecution’s lawyer, she will have to draw a line between her and Huo Shao. What’s the point of getting engaged?! Let’s break off the engagement as soon as possible and enforce justice on behalf of Heaven!”

“Yeah,” Cai Shengnan smiled, “but who would be willing to give up on major general Huo? That’s why she’ll definitely give up on being the prosecution’s lawyer.”

“She’ll really give up?” Luo Jialan frowned, “But she has a good relationship with that old goblin, Song Jinning.”

“What’s the point of having a good relationship?” Cai Shengnan disagreed, “Song Jinning and General Huo are already divorced. She’s not part of the Huo family anymore. What’s the point of sucking up to her? General Huo isn’t actually that old, he can remarry at any time, and Gu Nianzhi will have a new mother-in-law. How can she give up Huo Shaoheng for Song Jinning? Wouldn’t that be like picking up sesame seeds and throwing away watermelons?”

“Great Lawyer Cai, I didn’t expect you to speak Chinese so well,” Luo Jialan smiled as she poured her a cup of milk tea, “Have some dessert.”

Cai Shengnan reached out and patted Luo Jialan, “Don’t worry, if I say I’ll help you get exonerated, I’ll help you get exonerated. I can even keep your trust fund. Do you believe me?”

“I believe you! Of course, I believe you!” Luo Jialan laughed so hard that tears were coming out of her eyes, “This is such an unexpected surprise!”

A few days ago, she was still in a state of panic. She thought that she would lose both her money and her body this time round and might even end up in jail.

She didn’t expect Cai Shengnan would be able to change everything.

When the time comes, she wants to see if Huo Shaoheng will have the face to take out Huo Guanyuan’s will!

If he dared to take it out, then she couldn’t care less anymore...

Between trust fund and the man, Luo Jialan had regrettably chosen the trust fund.

Even though she loved Huo Shaoheng very much, this man had a heart of stone. Not only did he not have any pity or affection for her, but he also wanted to kill her!

So, don’t blame her for falling out with him.

Luo Jialan knew that she would never have the chance to marry into the Huo family again, so she could care less about the Huo family’s reputation.

...

After Gu Nianzhi was certain that the internet speed in the New York area could not be restored for the time being, she started to make her move on Weibo.

Although this person’s Weibo had been deleted, the Weibo post he had posted had already been retweeted by the Internet trolls.

While the troll army retweeted the screenshots, they also reposted the link to the deleted Weibo post. This wave of action has really deceived many onlookers who did not know the truth.

Just as everyone was discussing fervently, someone suddenly realized that something new seemed to have appeared on Weibo. A group of numbers appeared on every Weibo post that everyone posted!

Those who were observant took a look and realized that it was actually their own IP address!

This wave of Weibo operation was really too flashy!

In an instant, those people from the troll army who had schizophrenia and had deliberately put on a fake identity were all exposed.

“F*ck! This alternate account is actually yours?! Blacklist!”

“Celebrities also use alternate accounts?! Look, this account has the same IP address as that celebrity’s personal Weibo account?!”

...

Just as the entire Weibo was boiling with excitement over the sudden appearance of the IP addresses, someone discovered a suspicious point related to the trending Weibo post, “A family member of a high-ranking military official plotted to seize the inheritance of a martyr’s orphan.”

“Eh? An insider who lives in the Imperial City Procuratorate? Why does his IP address appear to be different from ours? Hmmmmmm, interesting.”

On Weibo, other than the trolls and followers, there were also many people who were good at thinking, hard to deceive, and good at unveiling the truth.

They quickly discovered that on the deleted Weibo page, the IP address that was displayed on the deleted Weibo post was not the IP address of the Huaxia Empire.

After checking again, they discovered that this IP address was from a small town in Australia!

This was really interesting.

Someone immediately posted a Weibo post with a hashtag, including two screenshots.

The first screenshot was the one that the person had posted earlier on, the original one that claimed to be living in the imperial procuratorate.

Although the original Weibo post had been deleted, the trolls had already taken screenshots of the Weibo post and started copying and pasting it on a large scale.

You could find this screenshot with a simple search on the internet.

Along with this screenshot was the IP address displayed on the deleted Weibo post.

After the message “Weibo content cannot be displayed, it has been deleted”, there was an IP address that indicated that it’s from a small town in Australia!

“F*CK oh my god! Look and see what I found?!”

“A person in Australia claiming to live in the Imperial Procuratorate!”

“This person even drank with his buddies living in the Imperial Procuratorate?! Is this person an idiot? Or is he a drama king?! ”

“The original blogger is spreading rumors!”

“Repost it 500 times! Put him in jail!”

The situation of the Weibo post, “The family of a high-ranking military official plotted for the inheritance of a martyr”, which had been reposted more than a million times in the morning, took a sudden change. Countless onlookers began to mock the blogger who had posted and then deleted his post.

“A drama king indeed! Blogger, you should go to the drama academy instead of stirring shit on Weibo!”

“Blogger, do your buddies in the Imperial Procuratorate know that you posted in Australia?! Hahahahahaha.”

Cai Shengnan and Luo Jialan came back from their meal and found that the public opinion on Weibo has took a drastic change within an hour. They could hardly believe their eyes!
