"We're going to start filming soon, so you'd better leave with your family first." Cheng Shixiang seemed to be sending away an ignorant little girl.

"If I heard correctly, you haven't answered the question about secretly taking our photos. Are you trying to just brush it off and change the subject?" Tan Mo said coldly, "You think I'm easy to fool because I'm young, right?"

Cheng Shixiang's face darkened. "Little girl, you have to be responsible for what you say! Taking pictures of you? Where's the evidence? Besides, why would I take pictures of you? What is there about you that's worth me taking pictures of?"

The word "I" in the last sentence was emphasized.

Everyone who heard it knew that he looked down upon secretly photographing them.

"The evidence is in your phone." Tan Mo said.

"Cellphone? You want to take out my phone and search it?" Cheng Shi wanted to sneer, "But there's no such insult!"

"I know, today is the first elimination round, so it's understandable that you're worried about being eliminated." Cheng Shixiang suddenly changed his expression, took a deep breath, and lectured like an elder, "But, resorting to such unconventional methods just to avoid being eliminated is too shameless!"

Hearing what Cheng Shi wanted to say, the others couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Did this little girl really slander Cheng Shixiang on purpose in order to help Tan Jinsheng advance smoothly?

No matter whether it is true or not, Cheng Shi thought it would not look good if a quarrel arose.

At that time, we will have to check it out, which will not only take up recording time, but may also affect Cheng Shixiang's performance.

If the investigation takes a little longer and Cheng Shixiang is unable to go on stage on time, he will be considered as having forfeited the competition and will be automatically eliminated.

If you talk to everyone, you will be able to advance smoothly.

Is this really the case?

Tan Jinsheng and his sister did such a despicable thing just to get promoted?

"Secret filming is the act of secretly filming someone without their consent. This is an infringement of their rights and requires corresponding legal liability." Tan Mo said calmly, "According to Article 42 of my country's Public Security Administration Punishment Law, peeping, secretly filming, eavesdropping, and spreading the privacy of others are violations of personal rights and are punishable by detention of up to five days or a fine of up to 500 yuan. In more serious cases, detention of between five and ten days may be imposed, and a fine of up to 500 yuan may be imposed."

"Although it's not a severe punishment, it won't be good if it gets out, right?" Tan Mo said lightly.

"I say again, you have no evidence!" Cheng Shi wanted to say.

"If I call the police, they'll naturally have the right to search for evidence," Tan Mo said. "Then they'll know if you have it on your phone."

"Okay, you finally told us your purpose, right!" Cheng Shi wanted to stand up.

He was much taller than Tan Mo, and pointed at him condescendingly, "If you call the police, I'll have to wait for them to come and investigate, and I'll miss my time on stage. By then, Tan Jinsheng will automatically advance."

Cheng Shi wanted to sneer, "Wanting to win is understandable, but using such despicable means is too much! If you want to win, just rely on your own strength and win openly! How can you have the face to win like this? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at? Even if you advance, the audience won't accept you!"

"I can wait until you're done on stage before calling the police," Tan Mo said coldly. "My second brother has always been aboveboard, regardless of whether he wins or loses. We would never bother with such petty tricks."

"What I've always wanted is for you to delete the photos you just took on your phone," Tan Mo said coldly. "If you were really doing it right, why did you take them secretly? What were you planning on doing by taking them? Are you trying to spread some rumors online?"

"Don't talk nonsense! I'll say it again, you have no evidence that I took the film secretly, so don't keep accusing me of taking the film secretly! What do you mean by spreading it? Did I spread it? You just recited that law very well, but you also said that I took the film secretly and spread it. Did I spread it?" Cheng Shi was getting anxious.

When everyone heard what Cheng Shixiang said, they thought to themselves, has he admitted that he did take the photos secretly?

"You didn't spread it because I discovered it in time." Compared to Cheng Shi's anxiety, Tan Mo remained as calm as a rock. "Also, if the victim is secretly filmed and believes that the other party's behavior constitutes a criminal offense, they can report the case to the public security organs. If it does not constitute a criminal offense, they can choose to file a civil lawsuit to protect their rights."

"I won't affect your performance," Tan Mo said, "but I will call the police and file a lawsuit."

"As for whether you took any secret photos, you can get the answer without even looking at your phone." Tan Mo pointed at the cameras hanging in every corner.

These are convenient for recording the guests' scenes even if there is no one from the program crew to shoot.

"Did you raise your phone to take pictures of us? These shots are all recorded." Tan Mo said, "You just took the picture in front of the mirror. The left camera can capture it."

"Is it not okay for me to take a selfie in the mirror?" Cheng Shi wanted to hear Tan Mo's explanation, knowing that his actions were captured by the camera and he would definitely not be able to escape.

When he took the photo just now, he knew there was a camera.

But he is not afraid.

Because no one will access those cameras now. The cameras were installed to film and record them, not to monitor them.

During the post-production editing, even if I saw it, I wouldn’t tell anyone.

Tan Mo smiled and said, "Think it over first."

Cheng Shi thought: "..."

What's the meaning?

What else is there to think about?

Tan Mo pointed behind Cheng Shixiang and said, "Did you forget there's a camera behind you? Let me think, that's how you held up your phone just now."

Tan Mo took out his mobile phone and imitated the angle at which Cheng Shi wanted to hold the phone exactly.

"You took the photo in front of a mirror, so the phone screen can just show who you're photographing. And the camera can also capture the image displayed on your phone screen." Tan Mo said calmly, "Speaking of which, we really don't need you to provide your phone, and it won't infringe on your privacy. We just need to check the camera image to see if you took the photo."

"This way, it won't take much time, and it won't affect your performance." Tan Mo said.

The rest of the Tan family also came over at this time.

After hearing what Tan Mo said, they believed it without Tan Mo providing any evidence. Cheng Shi thought that he must have taken the photos secretly.

There is no need to talk about the consequences.

Not just talking about family, everyone present can think of it.

What did Cheng Shi want to do by taking this photo?

It must have been spread online?

When it comes to literary rhetoric, you can imagine which direction public opinion will be guided.
