Chapter 126 Return the favor 02 The police will definitely find out the truth...
Chapter 2
It was already late when the plane landed. Lu Changfeng suggested, "Why don't we find an affordable hotel to stay for one night and go to the Municipal Bureau early tomorrow morning."
Yue Fanglin nodded in agreement: "That's fine. It's so late, there's nothing we can do even if we go there."
So everyone found a hotel that was closer to the police station.
There is a commercial street just a few hundred meters away. The commercial street is very lively at night and you can go shopping there.
There was a period of time when the spicy hotpot here became very popular on the Internet, and people flocked here to eat spicy hotpot.
Yue Fanglin suggested: "Why don't we find a restaurant to eat Malatang? Since we are here, we are going to have dinner anyway, so we might as well try out how delicious the Malatang here is and see how it differs from the one we have over there."
Lu Changfeng also wanted to try it.
Chuncheng’s spicy hot pot and rice noodles are also very popular, but the most popular is mushrooms.
After dropping their luggage off at the hotel, they went to a nearby Malatang restaurant.
There were quite a few people in the shop, and when they went in, the shop was full.
You can choose what you want to eat, and then give it to the chef to help you boil it.
Lu Changfeng has been feeling a little irritated lately, so he didn't order anything too spicy.
After delivering it to them one after another, they tasted the local specialties.
Yue Fanglin said: "It is indeed delicious, much better than what we have here."
The boss even gave them some Coke to relieve the spiciness, fearing that these out-of-town tourists couldn't handle spicy food.
After we finished eating and paid the bill, the four of us spent just over a hundred dollars.
If they were at a chain store of a certain brand, the food they eat would cost at least over two hundred dollars.
Jing Jue was very satisfied with the meal. "I really hope they can fix the prices of Yancheng Malatang. It's too outrageous. Last time I ate at the Malatang restaurant across the building, it cost over 60 yuan without taking much. In a restaurant, I can have one meat and one vegetable for over 60 yuan, and I can also have a few bowls of rice."
"You are talking about XX, right? I saw a lot of complaints online saying he is a spicy hot pot assassin."
Jing Jue nodded: "With my meager salary, I have to pay for a month's worth of spicy hot pot at their house."
Yue Fanglin said, "Actually, it's not difficult for you two to live together and learn how to cook. With the prices in Yancheng, your food expenses for the two of you will be over a hundred yuan a day. With that amount, you can buy groceries and cook for a large table of people."
"I can't do it." Jing Jue curled his lips.
"Learn." Yue Fanglin said, "I didn't know how to do it before. I used to eat in the cafeteria, but now I take care of my mom. My aunt comes to cook for me at noon, and I cook in the evening and morning by myself. I learn it slowly."
"Besides, it's also healthy if you cook it yourself. The kitchen in your house is so big, it would be a waste if you don't cook it yourself."
Zhou Yu also said: "Cooking is not difficult. You just need to overcome your fear and do it for a while. I didn't cook before I got married. My mother cooked at home. After I got married, I learned it naturally. My wife also worked very hard before. Whoever is free will cook."
Jing Jue thought for a moment and said, "Okay, when I get back to Yancheng, I'll learn how to cook."
"I'm rooting for you." Yue Fanglin clenched his fist and cheered for Jing Jue.
The next morning, several people arrived at the Lancheng City Bureau.
They were received by the Criminal Investigation Team of the Municipal Bureau, which is also conducting an in-depth investigation into the matter.
With such a stir on the Internet, the police must of course intervene and investigate to find out who is behind this.
Start investigating each of your enemies one by one.
When they saw the list, Lu Changfeng and Yue Fanglin were shocked. "So many?"
The police officer in charge of the investigation told them: "Lang Yuan used to do hotel safety assessments. Fans would leave messages in his comment section, saying they wanted to stay at a certain hotel and hoped he would help assess it. He would then bring his own equipment to randomly select a hotel to test whether it was safe."
"After his inspection, he found that most of these hotels had hidden cameras. Many hotel chains have this kind of problem. It can be said that in Lancheng, he is well-known for all kinds of chain hotels, express hotels, and small hotels. He has offended too many people."
"These videos will be uploaded to the Internet platform. If the hotel is found to have cameras installed, it means that privacy cannot be guaranteed and there are security risks, which will further affect the business of these merchants, and the loss is real money."
Several people nodded.
There is an old saying that goes: Destroying someone's financial resources is like killing his parents.
If someone goes out to do business and such things are exposed, their business will be greatly affected. Some people may consider themselves unlucky, but most will try every possible means to retaliate.
The police explained to them: "Some hotels did have these hidden cameras installed without their knowledge, but some hotels directly colluded with these people to install them and collected kickbacks or dividends. Some hotel insiders also colluded with criminals to profit from it. But no matter what the situation is, it will eventually violate the privacy of customers. When customers place an order, the hotel will not care whether you have any hidden secrets. If you violate privacy, it is a violation of privacy, and I will never stay there."
Several people from the serious crime squad also expressed their understanding.
When tourists check into a hotel, it is impossible for them to consider your hotel and risk exposing their privacy after your hotel has an obvious criminal record. They would rather pay extra to stay in a safe hotel than stay in a hotel that exposes their privacy risks.
"Didn't your local authorities intervene in this situation?"
"We intervened and regularly conducted large-scale inspections and imposed fines, but it was useless. Many of the relevant small business owners or persons in charge were in the same group and would notify each other to cover up. When we checked, we found nothing."
The young comrade also shook his head helplessly: "We are determined to rectify the situation, but they won't cooperate, and there is nothing we can do about it."
It can be seen that this kind of thing has become an industrial chain in the local area.
Jing Jue said, "So you're just going to leave it alone?"
"Of course we will, and the intensity will be much greater than before." The young comrade sighed, "We have tried our best, but there are too many tourists during the tourist season. If we check all the hotels at the same time, there will probably be only a few that can survive, and the tourists will have nowhere to stay."
"We can only conduct random inspections 365 days a year, and severely punish those found guilty by suspending the business for three months for rectification, but there will always be people who defy the law and commit crimes."
There are quite a lot of tourists in Lancheng every year. It is indeed as they said, if the inspection is really carried out at the same time, the hotel service business in the entire city will be directly shut down, and so many tourists will have nowhere to stay.
The young comrade checked the list, which was several pages long, one by one.
Lu Changfeng felt that if he investigated everyone one by one like this, it would take forever, so he had to find a way to screen out some people and focus on the investigation.
Comrade He Xiao said: "We can classify these people, such as those who have directly affected the other party's business, whose income is dismal and unable to recover, whose funds cannot be turned around and who have gone bankrupt, or who are heavily in debt. Or those who have been severely punished because of the investigation, and those who have installed micro cameras behind their backs and were caught, which further led to their arrest. We can classify them according to the severity of the situation and investigate layer by layer."
“That makes sense.”
The young comrade said, "Then I will make the classification first."
Lu Changfeng nodded.
"Okay, you do it first, we still want to meet this blogger."
"Then I'll help you contact him and make an appointment to meet with you."
Soon, the young comrade helped them make an appointment with Lang Yuan. Lang Yuan chose a suburban cafe in the village, where almost no one would go normally.
After the group drove to the coffee shop, they met Lang Yuan.
This cafe was opened by his friend, and he has been staying at his friend's place for the past few days.
Lang Yuan's cell phone was completely turned off.
Lu Changfeng asked: "Who do you think is most likely to make such an AI video to retaliate against you?"
Lang Yuan shook his head: "I have offended too many people, and I don't even know who it is."
Lu Changfeng showed him the suspicious persons' files one by one: "This is the classification we made based on the people you have contacted in the past. Take a look at the people in these files and see if you can find some relevant information."
Zhou Yu said at the side: "Also, I want to check the background of your phone, record all those who insulted you, and investigate them one by one."
Lang Yuan said: "I was a little scared at first, but then I thought about it and realized there was nothing to be afraid of. I was doing what I thought was right. If something happened to me, you police officers would definitely find out the truth."
"Of course." Yue Fanglin answered confidently, "But life is very precious. We don't want you to get hurt."
"Thank you for investigating this case so carefully and making the decision for me."
From his private messages in the background, I actually found a few people who were madly insulting him.
Lang Yuan explained: "This person used to run a budget hotel. At that time, my account had a lot of traffic, and almost every video of mine had a lot of views. At that time, I was still a blogger for hotel reviews. He left messages in several of my comment sections and even sent me a private message to invite me to review his hotel."
"So I went, but I found a lot of privacy cameras in his hotel. He wanted me to help him make a soft advertisement to attract tourists because I had recommended another small express hotel and that hotel's orders were all blown up. I rejected him without hesitation. I knew your hotel had privacy and security issues, so how could I recommend you to make a soft advertisement? I had to expose it to let everyone be careful, so I posted the video online, but due to my mistake, I didn't blur his face, and he complained that I violated his portrait rights."
"He opened this hotel in partnership with his relatives. The joint venture cost almost five million yuan. A lot of this money was borrowed. He hired many bloggers to promote it before, and the business was pretty good. If it stays stable, he can make back his investment in one or two years. Because of my video, his store struggled for three months, and then no one lived in it. The occupancy rate was directly 0, and he lost more than 100,000 yuan a month. He closed it down and sued me to compensate for his losses. It is said that his own losses were almost two million yuan. He sold his house and car to pay off the loan, and his relationship with his relatives was completely strained."
Jing Jue asked: "Does he know about it?"
"The police intervened in the investigation at the time, and because of this incident, they busted the person behind the scenes. Several hotels around them had networks laid out by the same person, and that person told the police in person at the police station that he and the owners of several other hotels were aware of this matter, and they were given some extra dividends from the profits they made."
