Chapter 58: On the night when Yao Cancan was detained, the public security organ...
The traffic police brigade found out the first time the group of dogs appeared was two days before the incident, which was the night when the program crew arrived in Sulijin Town. Someone brought them here in a truck, including the four stolen dogs and two stray dogs in the cargo bed.
Based on the license plate number, we found out the owner of the vehicle transporting the dogs was not from another place but from this county. His name is Kang Lei, and he lives in Shangzhi Town, southwest of Sulijin Town.
The program crew called the police, and now the police have sent people to Shangzhi Town to investigate. Once confirmed, compulsory measures will be implemented.
After Xia Shi and Jin Qi had their wounds sutured, they needed to stay in the hospital for one day for observation. Some staff members of the program team went to Shangzhi Town with the police, but Gao Luo and her friends did not go.
When Gao Shule returned to the hotel to sleep at night, she was so worried that she couldn't fall asleep.
Gao Luo asked her what she was thinking about.
She was silent for a moment: “Tell me, why did Shen Siyan do this?”
She couldn't understand why they always targeted her when they had no grudge against each other.
Gao Luo knew the reason a long time ago, but she hadn't been told it before. Now she can tell it.
"It's probably because she has a movie resource in her hand and wants Wen Cheng to play the male lead, but Wen Cheng doesn't want to play with her, so she made a request to her. So the real reason why Shen Siyan targeted you is because I offended Wen Cheng and Jun."
After Gao Shule heard this, she took a while to react and asked, "How did you know?"
"Meng Zhang told me before that Shunwen was in contact with Wencheng's team. I guess after Wencheng withdrew from the filming, he must be unhappy with us and wanted to take revenge."
"Well... even if that's the case, there's no need to resort to such extreme measures, right?"
"You think it's extreme, but maybe they think it's okay?"
Everyone has different moral standards. For example, Gao Shule would feel extremely guilty if she told a lie, but some people can sleep well every night even if they commit murder or arson.
Gao Shule seemed to have thought of something and stopped talking.
The room was quiet. After a while, Gao Luo said slowly: "Now there is evidence that the man in Shangzhi Town drove animals to attack others, which has caused intentional injury. According to the law, he will be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years. Chen Siyan is the one who hired him, so they are co-conspirators, and Chen Siyan will also be sentenced. If, I say if..."
Gao Luo turned over, facing Gao Shule, and said seriously: "Chen Siyan came to beg you, apologize to you, and said that she was stubborn and would never do it again. She said that if she was sentenced and arrested, Zeyin's condition would definitely get worse, and asked you to forgive her. Will you forgive her?"
This question seemed to stump Gao Shule. She thought about it for a long time, so long that Gao Luo almost fell asleep. Then she heard Gao Shule's answer: "Each of us should pay the price for our own choices."
Gao Luo felt very relieved that this good old man did not let her down at the critical moment and kept a clear head.
Gao Luo closed her eyes and prepared to sleep. When I was drowsy, I heard Gao Shule whisper, "Actually, I have a secret too. I'll tell you after the filming of the variety show is over, A'Luo."
Gao Luo wanted to ask her what the secret was and whether she could tell her now. But she was too sleepy to open her eyes or mouth, and she fell asleep with confusion.
She had a dream that when she was a child, she went to her grandparents' house. It seemed to be someone's birthday that day and many relatives came. She called people one by one, and by the end her throat was hoarse and her face was almost cramped from laughing. Finally, the greetings ended and she hid in the corner to drink water.
Looking over the top of the water glass, I saw another little girl in the corner. The little girl looked at her shyly and greeted her in a low voice: "Auntie..."
It's the child version of Gao Shule.
In the dream, Xie Ran suddenly remembered that it was her birthday and said to her, "Happy birthday, Lele."
When the little girl heard this, her eyes lit up instantly and her fair face turned red, making her look pretty and cute.
*
The next morning, Ning Heng brought bad news, saying that the man from Shangzhi Town only admitted that he stole the dog and brought the dog to Sulijin Town. He did not admit that anyone had instructed him, nor did he admit that he had deliberately released the dog to harm others.
Ning Heng said: "Negative injury does not constitute a crime. He only bears civil liability and pays some money. But I am still discussing with the lawyer to see if there is any way to prove that he deliberately injured someone. But even so, only he can be convicted because he insisted that he did it alone."
When Ning Heng was halfway through his speech, Gao Luo's brows had already furrowed. When he finished speaking, Gao Luo's eyebrows turned into small hills.
She wondered, "Why do the police wait for the criminals to confess everything? Why do they just…"
Her mouth was covered in time, and Gao Luo couldn't say the rest of the words.
"Don't talk nonsense." Gao Shule said nervously.
Gao Luo winked at her, signaling her to take her hand away before she finished her words.
Fearing that she would speak outrageously again, Gao Shule reminded her: "Speak nicely."
Gao Luo thought for a few seconds and nodded.
Seeing this, Gao Shule slowly let go of her hand.
Gao Luo really changed her tone and was no longer as irritable as before: "We want to continue investigating."
Do you still dare to be clever and avoid punishment? If you don’t see it, tell him to death!
"So what do you think?" Ning Heng asked.
Gao Luo said, "Check who he has been in contact with recently, check his correspondence, check his bank statements. There are so many ways. If you can't do it, I'll find someone to do it."
Gao Luo guessed that the man must have been bribed by Shen Siyan, and perhaps asked him to take the blame for her.
If he wanted to bribe her, he would have to spend money. If it was cash, someone would have to deliver it to him. She didn't believe that he lived in some deep mountain forest with no one around and no surveillance. It is easier to do it through the bank. With the bank statement, everything will be clear once you pull the slip.
And you must contact him in advance, so that the police can retrieve the communication and information records from the operator. It's impossible that there would be no trace at all. He's not a professional criminal.
Ning Heng listened to her and confirmed: "You want to get to the bottom of this? Do you want Shen Siyan to go to jail?"
"Why do you want to protect her? Didn't you hear what Ze Yin said? Or do you also think that Ze Yin was talking nonsense at that time?" Gao Luo asked back.
Ning Heng immediately defended himself: "Of course not, I was just asking. After all, you are 'colleagues' now and have recorded so many programs together. What if there is no evidence and we can't convict her? This will tear the relationship apart and it will be very difficult to get along with each other in the future."
"Who wants to get along with a criminal? You are friendly to her, but she is plotting against you behind your back. How can you get along with her?"
After Gao Luo finished speaking, she saw Ning Heng just looking at Gao Shule: "Teacher Gao also agrees?"
He wanted to hear Gao Shule's answer, to see if she would still consider the dignity of each other even after being bullied to this extent.
Fortunately, Gao Shule stood up for once.
"I agree." she said.
*
Gao Luo called Gao Chengsheng, and Gao Chengsheng asked two lawyers from the group's legal department to participate in the case.
The lawyer applied for an investigation order from the court, and started with the bank statements. It was found that the man's account had frequent financial transactions with an account in another place recently, and the amount was huge.
Kang Lei was unable to explain the source and purpose of the funds and was temporarily detained by the police station.
Another lawyer retrieved the man’s recent communication records through an Internet communication operator and discovered that he had contacted a number from another place many times. The number was located in the same area as the out-of-town transaction account, both of which were Lincheng.
The lawyer used the account and number to trace the person to a man named Shi Wu in Lincheng. It only took two days from identifying the suspect to the public security organs intervening in a different area and summoning him for investigation.
Yao Cancan only received the news after Shi Wu was summoned, so she was unable to communicate with the other party.
Yao Cancan is Shen Siyan's assistant. For many things, such as transactions with people like Kang Lei, she cannot use her own information to do them. So she borrowed a number and bank account from outside to do the job, and would pay that person a "borrowing fee" regularly.
He had borrowed the money for several years and everything was fine. Now he was suddenly summoned for investigation. When the police questioned him, he pretended to know nothing. The police told him that if he did not tell the truth, he would face three years in prison.
Ordinary people could not stand such a scare, so they honestly confessed the truth and told them that their cell phone number and bank account were bought by a woman.
Soon after, Yao Cancan was summoned for investigation.
Yao Cancan was with Shen Siyan at the time, and when she saw the police coming to her house, her mind went blank.
Shen Siyan was also confused, because she had reached a deal with Kang Lei and paid him a sum of money to take the blame, and she didn't know why the investigation would lead to them.
Through Shi Wu's confession, the police found out that Yao Cancan did indeed transfer money to him regularly. And the bank app account in Yao Cancan’s mobile phone does have account information and transfer records.
Therefore, even if there was no incident of hiring a dog to injure people, the illegal opening of accounts has already constituted a criminal fact, which is now equivalent to multiple charges.
The lawyer found out from the bank account transaction records of Yao Cancan that she had made a large-scale inter-city transfer a month ago. The recipient's name is Pan Ping, and his personal information, including photos, can be seen in the bank's system.
Both A'Luo and Gao Shule recognized that person. He was the performer in the scenic area who injured A'Luo's ankle with a bamboo pole in the ancient city.
Only then did they realize that it was not an accident, but was planned by Shen Siyan.
Soon, the man from Gucheng was also summoned for investigation.
Among the four people summoned, only Shi Wu was placed under administrative detention, while the other three were placed under criminal detention for intentional injury.
Criminal detention means being held in a detention center, which is undoubtedly like the sky falling for ordinary people.
Psychologically, it is no different from being in prison, and may even be more painful than being in prison. After entering, they were stripped naked for a physical examination, then changed into prison uniforms and locked in a cell with other criminal suspects. There were more than twenty or thirty people in a small room with no windows. The room was moldy and damp. They slept on a large bunk bed at night and were under centralized surveillance.
During the detention period, you are not allowed to see your family or make phone calls, and can only communicate through your lawyer.
On the first day Yao Cancan was imprisoned, she wanted to die.
Shen Siyan found a lawyer for Yao Cancan. The lawyer met with Yao Cancan and went back to tell Shen Siyan, "Her life in prison is very difficult. I want you to think of a solution."
What could Shen Siyan do? She asked the lawyer, "Let me figure it out. Why should I pay you to do it?"
The lawyer said helplessly: "Now the evidence is irrefutable, and the other three have already pleaded guilty. If we go through the legal process, the sentencing is a foregone conclusion."
Shen Siyan was surprised: “Did they admit it?”
It is normal for Shi Wu to plead guilty, because his behavior was to illegally rent out bank accounts, and he would at most be subject to administrative penalties, including warnings, fines, and suspension of banking business, but he would not have to go to jail.
But the nature of the other two people was different. One caused A-Luo to break her bones; the other released the dog, causing many people in the program crew to be injured, two of whom suffered minor injuries. They all have to bear criminal penalties for committing a joint crime, so how could they recognize each other so quickly?
The lawyer told her: "Ordinary people simply cannot withstand police interrogation. The psychological pressure and unequal legal knowledge will prompt them to 'confess and receive leniency'."
"Now you have to go find the victims, no matter what method you use, money or something else, and talk to them privately to see if you can reach a settlement."
Shen Siyan heard the key point: “Can the case be withdrawn after the settlement?”
Feng Daiyue reached a settlement with Xia Shi and ended up avoiding the lawsuit. Can I do the same?
The lawyer replied: “It is possible.”
"What do you mean by a certain possibility?" Shen Siyan was unhappy.
What she wanted to hear was an absolutely affirmative answer. Otherwise, if she begged the other party humbly and got nothing in return, wouldn't she be the one being taken advantage of?
The lawyer explained to her: "Intentional injury cases are different in nature. The process is generally that the victim reports the case to the police, and then the public security organ files a case and investigates the evidence. After the investigation is completed, the case will be transferred to the procuratorate, which will review the evidence again and file a public prosecution in court if it is confirmed to be correct. Once the case enters the public prosecution process, it cannot be withdrawn."
"As far as I know, the current process of your case is that the public security organ has transferred it to the procuratorate, but the procuratorate has not yet filed a public prosecution. If the other party reconciles at this time, it can be converted into a private prosecution case, and it is possible to withdraw the case later."
"But there is a prerequisite, which is that you must act quickly, before the procuratorate files a public prosecution. Otherwise, once the trial process begins, even if the other party reaches a settlement, it will be useless."
The lawyer’s words gave Shen Siyan a strong sense of urgency, but when the lawyer left, she hesitated.
She had never experienced anything like this before, and she was unwilling to ask for mercy. In her own understanding, she did not do anything excessive and did not understand why the other party insisted on biting her.
*
On the night that Yao Cancan was criminally detained, the public security authorities released the progress of the case on their social media accounts.
The content is: "Regarding the situation where the guests and staff of "Wonderful Holiday" were attacked by a group of dogs during the filming of the program in Sujin Town, it was found that Yao Moumou was suspected of intentional injury and has been criminally detained in accordance with the law. The case is under further investigation."
As soon as this official announcement came out, Weibo was paralyzed. This case attracted the attention of the entire network from the day it happened, thanks to the conversation between Gao Luo and Ze Yin in the hospital that day.
That conversation pointed the finger directly at Shen Siyan.
A popular female star deliberately drove a group of dogs to harm another female star on a variety show. Looking around the entire entertainment industry, there is absolutely no other example of this happening.
This program was already popular. Shen Siyan's popularity soared because of her CP with Xue Chen, who had been touted for a while. Gao Shule, as the most popular head of A-Luo, has also always been at the top in popularity.
The conflict between two people is enough for everyone to gossip about, but now such a vicious injury incident has occurred. The whole network came over to watch the show.
Although Shen Siyan later took out Ze Yin's medical report, saying that he had anxiety disorder and his words were not counted, she almost reversed the matter. However, when she was confronting A'Luo about what happened on the island, she felt guilty and the reversal failed.
It took almost ten days from the time Gao Shule and her friends called the police to the time the police intervened in the investigation.
During this period, there was no live broadcast, and no one from the official program team or the guests came out to respond to the matter. Netizens thought that it would be handled coldly and would be left unresolved like other gossip news in the entertainment industry.
I never expected that I would receive a report on the case from the local police, and right away they dropped a bomb.
The "Yao XX" mentioned in the notice is obviously Yao Cancan. Yao Cancan is Shen Siyan's assistant. She was detained, so the truth is self-evident.
Ten minutes later, the Weibo server was repaired. Netizens started discussing:
[Is Yao XX really Yao Cancan?] Could it be just the same last name? 】
[It's her. I have a friend who lives in her neighborhood and took a photo of her getting into the police car [Picture]]
[Oh shit!] It’s really her! ! 】
[Could Yao Cancan be the one taking the blame for Shen Siyan? 】
[Of course, she is Shen Siyan's assistant, and what she did must have been done by Shen Siyan! Otherwise, she would go crazy and go deal with Gao Shule. 】
[These are true best friends. This kind of relationship is beyond words. Most people can’t do it. I worship them. 】
[So it was really Shen Siyan who did it?] Oh my god, what a vision! 】
[The official announcement has come out, is there anyone who still doesn’t believe it? 】
[Fans don't believe it. They will say that it was Yao Cancan who did it and her sister didn't know. 】
[Is this true or false?] So mentally retarded? 】
Netizens predicted the fans’ whitewashing tactics, and now their unanimous opinion is – passing the buck.
[Yao Cancan is just a staff member. She did it on her own initiative and my sister was completely unaware of it. Please don't take her with you! 】
[This assistant is very dramatic every day. She always tries to get into Shen Siyan's vlog camera. People who don't know her would think she is also an artist. She has to bear the consequences of her own actions, it has nothing to do with our Yanyan! 】
[Yao Cancan is Yao Cancan!] ! Shen Siyan is Shen Siyan! ! Illiterate troubles be damned! 】
Fans frantically @the studio and @Chen Siyan herself, asking them to immediately release a clarification blog and distance themselves from Yao Cancan.
Shen Siyan can’t do this. Because Yao Cancan was detained for her, even other people couldn't withstand the police's interrogation, but Yao Cancan has not given herself up until now.
Shen Siyan thought about it for a whole night and decided to ask the company for help first.
She asked her agent for help and asked the company to help her negotiate with Gao Shule. The most attractive condition she could think of was her own movie.
She asked her agent, "Can you give that movie resource to Gao Shule? I want to use it to get Cancan out."
"The ownership of that movie's resources belongs to the company, not you personally." The agent's answer was quite ruthless.
"You mean, the company doesn't want to take care of me anymore?"
"If you have endorsements, business deals, or a drama to be aired, the company and investors will try to protect you, but you don't have any commercial value now. The company has invested too much in you, and now that you are involved in a criminal case, you can be classified as a risky artist. It would be stupid for the company to invest further."
"The best way now is to do what your fans said, and let Yao Cancan take all the blame. She can't escape anyway. When she comes out in a few years, you can give her more compensation."
After listening to her agent's words, Shen Siyan sneered. It turns out that the entertainment industry is only about money, fame and fortune, but no human warmth.
"Don't look at me like that. The company is realistic, but you are not realistic? If you weren't so eager for quick success and didn't agree to Wen Cheng's request, how could you have ended up in this situation today?"
"You've always been arrogant and thought that the decisions you made were never wrong. What about now? Do you regret it?" the agent asked.
Do you regret it? She doesn't! She never regrets a decision she makes. She only blamed Yao Cancan for finding the wrong people, a few cowards.
If these cowards hadn't betrayed Yao Cancan, taken the money and honestly taken the blame, how could she have been arrested?
But it's no use saying anything now.
After being rejected by her agent, Shen Siyan could only pin her hopes on another person for help, Wen Cheng.
After all, she agreed to Wen Cheng's request before taking action against Gao Luo and Gao Shule, so she called Wen Cheng to ask if he could provide help.
Wen Cheng asked her with amusement: "Did I ask you to do this? Or from making the plan to executing it, have you told me? Have you discussed it with me? Now that something has happened, you come to me. I'm not a policeman. What's the point of you looking for me?"
He hung up after he finished speaking, without even giving Ana Shen a chance to speak.
What Wen Cheng needs to do now is to try his best to distance himself from these two people, otherwise he will be dragged into the water if he is not careful.
In fact, when Wen Cheng saw Shen Siyan's true face exposed and her popularity among the public plummeted, he felt secretly happy. After all, she wanted to step on him to get to the top right after her debut, and this was her retribution. Who told her to be so ambitious and have evil intentions?
Before her accident, she caused the "Wonderful Holiday" to be suspended, which made Wen Cheng feel very happy.
Don’t be too happy when something bad happens to the shows and artists you hate. There was only one regret, that was that Gao Shule and Gao Luo were not among those bitten by the dog that day, otherwise he would really laugh out loud in his dreams.
*
After being rejected repeatedly, Shen Siyan was furious and wanted to find a media outlet to expose the deal between Wen Cheng and herself.
But reason told her that if she did this, she would also have to go to jail, and according to her lawyer, life in there would be very torturous. She didn't want to go in.
On the fourth day of Yao Cancan’s detention, the lawyer came to Shen Siyan again, asking her if she had gone to find the victim and urging her to negotiate quickly.
From the perspective of the parties involved, she believed that the sooner Shen Siyan was found, the less suffering Yao Cancan would suffer in this case.
Although Shen Siyan was extremely reluctant, she still went.
We met at that teahouse.
She only made an appointment with Gao Shule, but many people from the other side came. In addition to Gao Shule, there are Xia Shi, Jin Qi, and Gao Luo.
Shen Siyan was a little unhappy at the time: "Why did you call so many people? Are you afraid that I will smite you?"
Gao Shule asked her back: "Do you want to talk about reconciliation?"
Shen Siyan reluctantly said “hmm”.
"The four of us are all victims. If you want to negotiate a settlement, it's useless to just talk to me alone."
Because of Shen Siyan, the four people who came had all suffered injuries to varying degrees, and they were indeed victims, so it made sense.
Seeing that Shen Siyan, who wanted to reconcile, had such a bad temper, Gao Luo rolled her eyes in front of her.
She couldn't handle it after only four of them came, and she hadn't even called over the dozen or so other injured staff members from the program crew!
