In June 2040, a torrential downpour quietly descended upon Earth. Overnight, cities were submerged, and people lost their precious homes. Song Yue, with her parents, was forced to embark on a path ...
Chapter 83
Zhu Chunmeng was filled with surprise, and even refreshed the page several times in disbelief, until he saw the label "You have followed" at the end of the other party's account. Only then did Zhu Chunmeng confirm that Song Yue was really behind this account!
She actually helped her family dispel rumors? !
Zhu Chunmeng was both suspicious and nervous. She scrolled down and found that one of the most popular Weibo posts was automatically pinned to the top of her homepage.
Over 800,000 likes, 200,000+ comments, and 100,000+ reposts.
My god, this is too hot!
She clicked on it in a hurry, and the picture enlarged, revealing her and her husband Tan Jie's faces.
"I'm Officer Tan... Open the door... I'm warning you... I will definitely... do something bad to your family..."
Although it was not the first time that Zhu Chunmeng had seen this maliciously edited video, he still felt a chill down his spine.
This is too much. How can a person's mind be so vicious?
It was obvious that her husband didn't say that at the time, but the man downstairs actually mixed up her husband's words and pieced them together, and finally made this video!
Non-professionals can't see any problems at all. Even she herself would probably believe the video only half the time if she hadn't experienced it in person.
Zhu Chunmeng felt that the mood that had finally calmed down was rising again.
But fortunately this time, the video in hand was not slanderous, but restored the truth for their family.
Zhu Chunmeng pursed her lips and forced herself to watch the restored video.
A tightly knotted heart finally relaxed.
At this time, her husband Tan Jie had also finished his call with the director. He came over and asked her, "Do you know who that netizen is?"
Zhu Chunmeng glanced at him with a complicated expression and took a deep breath: "It's Song Yue."
"It's her?! How could she..." Even a policeman like Tan Jie couldn't help but be surprised. He took the phone from Zhu Chunmeng and watched the video quickly. Throughout the whole process, the surprise in his eyes was no less than Zhu Chunmeng's.
The video was processed so well that even a layman like Tan Jie could understand it.
He put down his phone, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then looked at his wife Zhu Chunmeng and said sincerely: "Let's go and thank you in person some other day."
Zhu Chunmeng said without hesitation: "Of course, that's what I meant."
Song Yue saved their family twice in a row. The first time was their son's life, and the second time was her husband's career. Both of these matters were as big as heaven, and they were both successfully resolved without expecting anything in return.
Zhu Chunmeng secretly vowed that if Song Yue encountered any difficulties in the future, as long as she could help, she would do her best to help!
Zhu Chunmeng: Xiaoyue, I'm sorry. I was busy at home and left my phone in the bathroom. I just saw your message. My husband and I both know you clarified the truth for our family. Seriously, I don't know how to thank you enough! You've helped our family so much. Hey, I won't say those sentimental words. Anyway! If you encounter any difficulties in the future, please tell me. Don't be polite with me, or I'll be upset!
It was already the next morning when I saw Zhu Chunmeng's reply.
Song Yue didn't have the habit of staying up late. When she got up in the morning and checked her phone, she saw a long message from the other party.
After reading it, she smiled knowingly. This speaking style was very straightforward and very Zhu Chunmeng-like.
Song Yue: Okay, I get it. I'm definitely not polite [playfully]
After replying to the message, he switched to Weibo.
Since the official announcement to clarify the rumors early yesterday morning, all the accounts that made malicious remarks have been like shut down, unable to make a single sound.
Netizens responded enthusiastically in the official comment section.
[Ahahahahaha, I declare this is definitely the fastest time a hater has ever been slapped in the face. I specifically checked the time, from start to finish, well, no more than 12 hours. I'm really laughing to death!]
[I woke up this morning and saw the official response, which made me feel refreshed for the whole day.]
[I've long felt that the blogger had issues. I previously questioned him in the comments section, but was reported and had my comment deleted. Haha, he must have felt guilty.]
[Yes, that blogger deleted all the comments questioning the authenticity of the video. The only ones left were from online scammers. This is simply intentional manipulation!]
Fortunately, it was handled, otherwise, at this critical juncture, public sentiment could easily be shaken.
[By the way, what about that backflip kid? Any results? Could someone please let me know?]
Song Yue was stunned when she saw this comment. After thinking for a moment, she clicked on the C City Internet Police account and sent a private message: [Hello, I am citizen Song Yue. I would like to ask about the incident with the backflip teenager. Have you responded to the issue and handled it?]
At that time, the Internet police were dealing with accounts that made bad remarks. For mild cases, they would ban them for 7 days, while for serious cases, they would directly block their accounts.
This is also why netizens found the Internet much quieter when they woke up.
After staying up all night, the young cyber police officer was ready to hand over his shift to his colleagues.
Before logging out, he suddenly found a private message in the background. When he clicked it, it turned out to be Ms. Song who had been praised by the whole network before!
He looked at the time and saw that there were still 2 minutes left before the shift change, so the young cyber police officer quickly replied while he still had some free time.
Song Yue didn't expect the Internet police platform to be so efficient in responding. After reading the other party's reply, she raised the corners of her lips slightly.
Very good, it's settled.
Yin Xun didn't sleep well these two days.
On the one hand, it was because of the pressure caused by online public opinion, and on the other hand, it was because of his deep longing for his father.
Half asleep and half awake, he seemed to see his father coming to his bedside, gently stroking his head, and telling him that he must be a man and be strong.
At that moment his eyes turned red, he grabbed his father and asked when he would come back.
But his father smiled and told him that he was going to a very far and peaceful place and told him not to worry.
The figure gradually became blurred and the smile gradually faded away.
"Dad! Don't leave!"
Yin Xun struggled desperately on the bed, wanting to get up, but his whole body felt like it was being pressed down by a huge rock and he couldn't move at all.
He just watched his father disappear and turn into a soft light outside the window.
His heart ached, and due to difficulty breathing, he suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from the dream.
He looked at the ceiling and touched his face, which was soaked.
"Don't cry, Dad just told me to be strong." He gritted his teeth and warned himself.
The cell phone was right next to the bed. He sat up tiredly and picked up the phone out of habit.
The trending searches about him were removed two days ago, but there are still many threatening and cursing private messages in the background. He won’t read any of them. The only reason he goes backstage is because of the sister who encourages him behind the scenes.
[Xiaoxun chasing the sun: Good morning, sister~]
After sending a message every day, the other party will definitely reply.
[Song Xiaoyueyueyue: Good morning, the weather is nice today]
Yin Xun looked out the window. The soft sunlight reminded him of the person in his dream again: [Yeah, it’s really good. My mood has improved~]
Song Xiaoyueyue: [Cute Penguin]
The avatar is obviously very cool, a half-face portrait of a queen, but the emoticons she sends are very cute, which makes Yin Xun feel a contrast every time and can't help laughing.
He already knew about the official clarification of the video early yesterday morning. Thanks to this sister, otherwise the policeman would probably have been splashed with dirty water just like him.
Fortunately, the incident was handled in time and no major accident occurred.
It's his own business...
The corners of his mouth that had finally risen drooped again. Forget it. His sister said that he should just do his part. As long as he has a clear conscience, the truth will come to light one day.
Thinking of this, he sent the other person an equally cute waving emoticon and prepared to start studying for the day.
The study time passed quickly for him in the blink of an eye.
At 12 noon, his mother called him to eat in the living room. He answered and picked up his mobile phone to look at it, intending to watch some funny videos to relax his brain.
As soon as I unlocked the screen, a long list of news popped up in the notification bar.
After seeing the words clearly, his pupils gradually dilated and tears instantly filled his eyes.
#Martyr's Child Backflips Xiaoxun: Recently, the Internet Police and the National Police Department in City C discovered that multiple accounts were circulating a video of a teenager doing a backflip across various platforms, accusing him of damaging national dignity and sparking public concern. Upon investigation, it was determined that the uniform seen in the video belonged to the teenager's father, Yin Jianhao, a former drug enforcement officer who died in the line of duty three months ago. His son, Yin Xun, 17, is currently a high school student and is not employed by any unit or military. He is not a related individual as rumored online. A reminder: the internet is not a lawless place; those who fabricate and spread rumors will be held accountable according to law. #
Yin Xun held the phone tightly, tears falling down his face.
Perhaps because she saw that he had not left the house for a long time, Yin's mother knocked on the door in confusion and came in, only to see her son crying inconsolably.
"Xiaoxun, what happened?" She hurried over and looked at her son with concern. "Don't tell me you cried watching the video again."
Yin Xun wiped away his tears and forced a smile: "It's okay, Mom, look at this, it's Dad."
He said, handing over his phone.
Hearing her son's words, Yin's mother was stunned. She took the phone and read it word by word. At the end, her eyes were red: "Xiaoxun, why didn't you tell me earlier..."
He was only 17 years old, how much pressure he had endured these days! And she, as a mother, actually knew nothing.
Yin Xun shook his head stubbornly: "There's no need to say it. This is not our fault in the first place, and I will take care of it. Don't worry, Mom."
Like my sister said, what's wrong with him posting the video? What's wrong with his mother accidentally walking by from behind? Did he say anything bad? Or did he break the law?
No, absolutely not!
In this case, his mother should not bear this pressure. Besides, he has grown up and is the pillar of the family. He has to bear all these things by himself!
There were tears in his eyes, but his gaze was particularly firm.
Mother Yin looked at her son, a pang of heartache welling up in her heart. She hugged Yin Xun tightly and said in a choked voice, "Xiaoxun, you have really grown into a man! Your father must be very proud of you."
Online.
Before the official news about the malicious editing of the video was over in the early morning, there was another more shocking news at noon. At that moment, all netizens were speechless.
Drug enforcement police, died in the line of duty...
Just these four words carry so much blood and tears, which ordinary people cannot even imagine.
The comment section below the announcement was silent for a long time.
It wasn't until several minutes later that Song Yue finally saw dozens of comments.
I once watched a CCTV documentary about drug enforcement, telling the story of anti-drug police officers on the border. I remember clearly that there was a family of loyal martyrs, from the father to his three sons, all of whom died on the front lines. It brought tears to my eyes when I watched it. It was so heartbreaking.
[I've also seen this, and I feel really bad for the drug enforcement officers and their families.]
This announcement brought tears to my eyes. My grandfather was also a drug enforcement officer, and he died...
[Thanks to the grandfather above, he protected our country]
When mentioning this special profession, the comment section is full of respect.
Of course, in addition to this, it is also necessary to fight against the haters.
[OK, now the truth is out. Where are those who are stirring up trouble? If you have the guts, step forward and apologize to the boy and his father!]
[You can slander anyone, but dare you slander drug enforcement officers? Sorry, I'll curse you every time I see you.]
[I'm just a student, yet I've been slandered like this by those people. Am I still a human being?]
[Thankfully, the official account confirmed this, otherwise it would have ruined a hero's reputation and a child's future!]
After that, Song Yue didn't turn over again.
Because she knew that no one else could cause any trouble in this matter.
After lunch, Yin Xun felt much better.
While helping his mother collect the chopsticks, his cell phone suddenly rang. It was a familiar number.
"Hello, Uncle Liao, it's me." He answered the phone calmly.
"Yeah, I saw the announcement on Weibo."
"I'm fine. Mom and I are fine, really."
"Thank you for your concern, Uncle Liao. Um, I'm planning to apply to the police academy. Which major?"
"Drug enforcement."
After hanging up the phone, Yin's mother leaned out of the kitchen and asked, "Who is it? Is it your Uncle Liao?"
Yin Xun nodded.
Mother Yin: "Did he say anything?"
Yin Xun: "Nothing, just that thing on the internet. Uncle Liao asked about you and me. I told him everything was fine and told him not to worry."
He doesn't plan to tell his mother about taking the drug enforcement exam for the time being, as he is worried that she will disagree.
But he had to go down this path no matter what, so the best way was to wait until he passed the exam before talking to his mother.
After bringing the dishes to the kitchen, he wiped his hands and started browsing Weibo.
Many of those who had previously scolded him backstage have disappeared, and have been replaced by many netizens expressing their concern and sincere apologies.
I'm sorry, Xiaoxun. I shouldn't have let others influence me. I said some unpleasant things before, but I've deleted them and sincerely apologize to you.
Xiaoxun, I really appreciate your optimism. I hope you can keep this attitude and keep up the good work!
There were so many warm words, and he read and responded to them one by one.
Until the end, his eyes fell on one of the private messages. He himself didn't even realize how much smile was in his eyes when he saw this private message.
It was sent to him by his sister.
[Song Xiaoyueyueyue: Congratulations, let’s start anew! ]
[Xiaoxun Chasing the Sun: Thank you, sister. Without you, I wouldn’t be able to make it this far.]
Song Xiaoyueyueyue: [You’re welcome, little rabbit!]
Yin Xun smiled and retweeted the official post, writing: "Thank you to the police officers for their efforts @C City Police Department @C City Internet Police. I also want to thank my sister @Song Xiaoyue Yueyue. Your encouragement has helped me regain my confidence. I hope my sister will be healthy and happy every day! [Cute Penguin]. Retweet: Link."
Finding herself being tagged, Song Yue switched out and saw that the penguin emoticon at the end of Yin Xun's post was the same one she had used, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
No one knows why she stood firmly behind Yin Xun when he was slandered.
Because she had met Yin Xun in her previous life.
That was in September. When she was out looking for supplies, she ran into him in a half-collapsed supermarket. He looked listless and in a very bad state.
Seeing that he was alone and pitiful, Song Yue shared some food with him. Perhaps because of her gesture of extending her hand, Yin Xun's psychological defenses collapsed, and he cried and told him about his father's death.
Everyone was having a hard time at that time, and Song Yue could do nothing but pat him on the shoulder and comfort him.
Later she separated from him and never saw him again until her death.
Song Yue didn't know what Yin Xun's life was like in his previous life, but since they had intersections in this life, she had to help him.
Martyr Yin sacrificed his life for his country, and his son should not suffer from online violence for no reason.
Yin Xun has few followers on Weibo, so he forwarded the announcement and expressed his gratitude purely from the heart.
Who knew that not long after it was forwarded, his gratitude became a hot topic among netizens.
【Wow, wow, good job, little brother Xun! 】
[Little Xun is so kind, come on! ]
[By the way, isn't anyone curious? How did Xiaoxun know Song Xiaoyue? ]
[Oh, I just realized now. Is this Song Xiaoyue Yueyue the person that the official daddy specifically thanked in the early morning? ]
[Just checked and it turns out it’s the same person]
[So amazing? She actually stood on the right side of two people at the same time]
What does it mean to be right? Shouldn't we say that Sister Song has a keen eye?
[Indeed, it lives up to the official title of "Perceptive," totally awesome!]
At the same time, Song Yue found that she had gained countless fans, but she didn't feel anything. This is how the Internet is. It is easy to make someone popular, and it is even easier to swallow someone up.
She has no plans to become an internet celebrity, so these fans are of no use to her, so just leave them there.
That evening, the C City Police Department and the C City Cyber Police issued their third notice this month. The gist of the announcement was that after interrogation, it was confirmed that the person who maliciously edited the video and fueled the Xiaoxun incident was the same individual. The suspect colluded with foreign forces, taking bribes to perform tasks that seriously impacted national honor and public security. He will be dealt with according to law soon.
The mastermind behind the scenes was exposed, and overnight, netizens fully demonstrated their spirit of digging out all the information about Fu Guoqiang.
[Good fellow, using the name of a rich and powerful country to do such sneaky things, absolutely amazing]
He was the owner of Starlight Media, but the company went bankrupt two years ago and was forced to pay the court. There were many reasons for the bankruptcy. I looked it up online, and one was that he was reported for engaging in shady dealings, and the other was that he had been repeatedly implicated in sexual misconduct.
[I turned out to be a legal expert]
[That's not all. I also found out something else. His current wife is not his original wife, but his mistress, who came to power. She once caused trouble at his company and got her fired. The mistress gave birth to a son. His original wife gave birth to a daughter, but Fu Guoqiang didn't like her and was not very nice to her. Now the relationship between father and daughter is very strained.]
[The owner of this layer is awesome, he can even find out this! ]
At that time, Zhu Chunmeng was about to go to bed. Before going to sleep, she opened her mobile phone, intending to chat with Song Yue casually, but then she thought that she would probably be asleep at this time, so she gave up the idea and turned to read the news.
She only found out about Yin Xun's affairs in the evening. She was busy taking care of the baby at home during the day, and she didn't hear about it until her father-in-law and husband came back from outside at night and she heard about it at the dinner table.
She felt unlucky at the thought of living above such a person.
Rolling his eyes, Zhu Chunmeng clicked on the trending search and saw the lively comment section.
What about mistresses, second marriages, preference for boys over girls, breaking the law...
All kinds of words caught my eye.
Zhu Chunmeng couldn't help but exclaim, this is simply a complete scumbag!
No wonder the woman downstairs always looks down on others. After all, if the mistress becomes the main wife, wouldn’t she be very proud?
The thing Zhu Chunmeng despised most in his life was this kind of woman. With her hands and feet, she could do anything else, but she had to destroy other people's happy homes?
Oh, of course, Fu Guoqiang himself is not a good person either.
A scumbag and a slutty girl, never mind, when you think about it this way, they are a good match.
There were so many comments in the comment section that it was impossible to scroll through them all. Zhu Chunmeng read for a while and then went to sleep.
What she didn't know was that in the second half of the night, many enthusiastic netizens braved the cold and went to Fu Guoqiang's home.
Fu Guoqiang was taken to the police station, but his mistress must still be at home, so a group of people threw stones, used laser pens, and even threw feces at the door. In short, they made the mistress very restless.
In the end, the community property management called the police, and the police on duty came to drive the people away, and the community returned to peace.
Zhu Chunmeng had no idea about these things last night. She was the kind of person who wouldn't wake up even if her head hit the pillow.
It was only after hearing from my husband Tan Jie that I finally found out what happened last night.
She immediately told Song Yue about this.
Zhu Chunmeng: Seriously, I almost died of laughter this morning, hahahaha! So satisfying! So refreshing! Hahaha!
At that time, Song Yue had already gotten up. Seeing Zhu Chunmeng laughing, she raised the corner of her mouth.
But the next moment, she immediately replied seriously: [It is indeed worth being happy, but! Don’t forget your identity, the wife of a government official, the spouse of a police officer, watch your words [serious face]]
Zhu Chunmeng: Haha, I'm just telling you. I wouldn't talk to anyone else like this.
Song Yue smiled: [I know]
In the first half of October, because the Internet was restored, many criminals hid in it and attempted to distort the national sentiment. Fortunately, online platforms increased the review of accounts and speech. Throughout October, except for the two incidents involving Yin Xun and Tan Jie, no malicious rumor-mongering incidents occurred.
In the second half of the month, some factories started production one after another at the call of the country. Some processed grain, and some produced basic supplies. When the country's supplies gradually became surplus, they entered the full production stage.
The people saw hope and expressed their gratitude under the official account.
On October 25th, Song Yue finally became fed up with 099's constant nagging. She turned over in bed several times before finally nodding in agreement: "Okay, okay, come out."
After looking forward to it for a long time, 099 was finally able to visit Xiaoyue’s parents and was extremely excited!
He put on his humanoid shell and emerged with a whoosh, his face brimming with excitement: "Xiao Yue, Xiao Yue! Long time no see!"
Song Yue glanced at him.
There is only one image in my mind: a dog with its tail swung like a propeller.
The author has something to say:
