"Zhang Hualin, when did you start secretly filming women?"
Zhang Hualin answered hesitantly:
"It should be...it should be more than two years now!"
"We found a large number of obscene videos and transaction records on your phone. Where did you sell the secretly filmed videos? And who is this contact person codenamed L?"
Zhang Hualin: "I...I don't know."
The interrogating policeman slammed his hand on the table.
“Zhang Hualin! You need to know that you are now suspected of secretly filming personal privacy, insulting others, and disseminating obscene videos. If you don’t cooperate, you won’t even have a chance for a reduced sentence.”
Zhang Hualin: "I...I really don't know!"
"We only communicate online and have never met in person. He never tells me his name."
Whenever I find good deals, I contact him directly. He gives me a website address, I upload the video to it, give him my bank account number, and he transfers the money.
"So how did you get his contact information?"
Zhang Hualin: "I...we met in a group chat."
What kind of group?
Zhang Hualin: "It's just a group for sharing videos."
Why didn't you see it on your phone?
Zhang Hualin: "That group was banned, so we communicated on forums later. It was an external website, so the police here can't do anything about it."
...
Lu Qing and Gu Xicheng stood outside and watched for a long time.
After the police inside finished their interrogation and came out, she asked if she could go in and take a look.
After receiving permission, Lu Qing went inside.
When Zhang Hualin saw Lu Qing, anger flashed in his eyes:
"It was you! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been caught!"
Lu Qing looked at him and felt really disgusted. She didn't even want to touch him, so she let Gu Xicheng come in to check.
After examining his soul, Gu Xicheng shook his head at Lu Qing.
There was no evil energy in his soul, but that doesn't mean he didn't obtain evil cultivation techniques.
"Zhang Hualin, I'm asking you, has anyone you can't see ever given you a cultivation manual?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Hualin's eyes flickered:
"No...no! What kind of cultivation technique? I don't know!"
Judging from his expression, he clearly knew about it and had even tried to cultivate it, but without success.
But since he didn't succeed, why is he panicking?
Lu Qing narrowed her eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then asked the police to take her and Gu Xicheng to Zhang Hualin's house.
There, they indeed found the hidden martial arts manual.
Lu Qing took the cultivation manual back to the police station interrogation room and threw it in front of Zhang Hualin.
Zhang Hualin panicked even more:
"What...what is this? I don't know!"
Lu Qing scoffed: "I haven't even asked you yet, and you're already so eager to make excuses."
"I just don't understand. People who fail to fix this usually think it's fake or a scam."
But judging from your expression, you clearly know this thing is real, and that cultivating it is illegal!
“Zhang Hualin…” Lu Qing narrowed her eyes and looked at him coldly, saying:
"You're so panicked because someone has successfully cultivated it, right?"
Zhang Hualin's expression tightened, and he shouted in a panic:
"No! No! I don't know what that is! I don't know anything!"
"Tell me, who exactly is that person?" Lu Qing asked angrily.
"I don't know! Don't ask me, I really don't know!"
Zhang Hualin curled up, seemingly terrified of the person.
There was no way to get the person's whereabouts out of him if things continued like this. After thinking for a moment, Lu Qing still used magic on him.
"Zhang Hualin, speak! Who exactly is the person practicing evil magic?!"
Zhang Hualin, under the spell of truth, couldn't control his mouth at all.
After holding back for a while, he finally couldn't help but answer:
"It's L! He's succeeded in his cultivation!"
Lu Qing: "Is L the person you traded the secretly filmed videos with?"
Zhang Hualin: "Yes!"
Lu Qing: "Didn't you say you didn't know him? How do you know he practiced evil arts and even succeeded?"
Zhang Hualin: "He gave us the cultivation method. He said that after we successfully cultivated it, we would be safer!"
We didn't believe it at first, but he showed up that day, wearing glasses, a mask, and a hat, covering his face completely.
He showed it to us, and we believed him.
"Us?" Lu Qing frowned slightly.
"Besides you, who else?"
Zhang Hualin: "Everyone in that group got it, but I haven't heard of anyone successfully cultivating it."
Lu Qing: "Do you have a way to contact L?"
Zhang Hualin shook his head: "I could contact him before, but now that I've been arrested, he's incredibly resourceful and must have gotten wind of it."
I'll never be able to contact him again!
Lu Qing: "Then can you contact people like you?"
Zhang Hualin: "We don't contact each other privately; we only communicate on the forum."
Having finished questioning them, Lu Qing and Gu Xicheng exchanged a glance, then dispelled the spell and left the interrogation room.
"We need to find a way to infiltrate that forum Zhang Hualin mentioned, and find everyone who obtained the cultivation technique, especially this L."
Lu Qing contacted Li Hui and transferred Zhang Hualin to the Investigation Bureau prison.
Although he did not succeed in cultivating the technique, he did know the method, and the investigation bureau's prison was more suitable for him.
As for matters discussed on the forum, the Investigation Bureau has very few people involved in that area.
Lu Qing then called Tang Yu to come and help.
Things on the internet should be left to professionals.
Tang Yu successfully entered the website using that URL.
Once inside, I discovered there were quite a few people there, all of them peeping tom.
Many people upload videos of voyeurism to it, and some even post live stream links, broadcasting the voyeuristic perspective live.
But these are all paid services; you have to pay to watch them.
Tang Yu searched around inside and finally found the person codenamed L.
"Lu Qing, found him!"
Tang Yu filtered out all the information he posted on the forum.
"This person posts very little, mostly browsing history, no videos, and no purchases."
Wang Yanjun: "This guy is clever! He only looks but doesn't post or buy anything. Even if the forum is found, it won't constitute a crime for him."
Lu Qing: "He must have another account, can we find it?"
Tang Yu: "This forum is on an external website, I'll give it a try!"
Tang Yu was working quickly on the computer.
I don't know how much time passed, but everyone else was almost falling asleep.
Finally, Tang Yu shouted with delight, "Found it!"
The drowsy group instantly woke up.
"This person does have a secondary account, but according to the registration information, it belongs to an elderly man in his eighties. It's probably fake, and finding the person isn't very valuable."
Lu Qing: "What did he post?"
Tang Yu retrieved his information:
"He is the owner of this forum. Everyone has to go through him to post videos. Many people have sent him private messages, but he only gives them one contact method."
This is the contact information you found on Zhang Hualin's phone.
We checked that phone number too; the identity is fake.
Gu Xicheng: "Could we pretend to want to sell the video and contact him?"
Tang Yu touched his hair:
"It's possible, but you'll need to prove your loyalty to him by sending him at least a three-minute secretly filmed video before he'll reply."
"Where...did we get this secretly filmed video from?!"
