Xue Huaiyun and Old Lady Xu denied it at first, saying that they had done nothing and that they had no improper thoughts.
"Comrade police, did Lin Jiancao say something to you?" Xue Huaiyun looked at the police with an innocent face.
"I'm telling you, she made a false police report. We didn't do anything. I'm still a student at Haicheng University, with excellent character and academic performance. Don't just listen to Lin Jiancao's one-sided words."
He tried to use lies to cover up his unscrupulous and illegal behavior.
Old Mrs. Xu beside her seemed a little flustered. She said in a trembling voice, "Lin Jiancao is my granddaughter. How could a granddaughter call the police to arrest her own grandmother?"
Her expression was full of grievance and helplessness, as if she was the victim.
The police remained unmoved and looked at the two men seriously.
"No one called the police. Your threats against Lin Jiancao were seen online. You're trying to break the law. Do you think our police force doesn't exist? Come with us to the police station and receive some ideological education."
"What do you mean the entire network?" Xue Huaiyun had a bad feeling.
"So you didn't know yet." The police showed Xue Huaiyun the live broadcast recording.
Xue Huaiyun and Old Lady Xu never expected that their entire behavior would be broadcast live on the Internet.
"How is this possible, how is this possible..." Xue Huaiyun muttered to himself with disbelief in his eyes.
When he threatened Lin Jiancao, he observed that there was no one around. There was no one else around except the three of them, and no one was following them.
To film a video, one has to carry a camera, and the target is so big, there is no way he didn't see it.
But what was happening now? Not only had his actions been live-streamed online, but they had also alerted the police. He could imagine how people online would curse him.
Old Mrs. Xu realized that their plan had been exposed. When she saw the police coming to arrest her, she sat down on the ground and started to act like a rogue.
"I'm looking for Lin Jiancao. Lin Jiancao is my granddaughter. I provide her with food and clothing. Whatever I do for her is natural. I just act a little radically sometimes, but it's all for her own good. Why should she hold me responsible? There are no parents who are not wrong, and there is even less of a grandmother who is not wrong!"
The policeman was speechless and said sternly, "It seems that you haven't realized your mistake yet. Come with us to the police station to study the law. The staff of the Women's Federation will also be there to give you a good ideological lesson."
Having criminal intent but not committing specific criminal acts does not constitute an actual crime and will not be subject to legal sanctions.
However, this does not mean that the existence of such intention can be ignored, especially when the entire Internet population has witnessed this incident. If the police remain indifferent, they will inevitably be strongly condemned and attacked by netizens.
Therefore, they must take corresponding measures to maintain social order and good morals and the dignity of the law.
"Don't dawdle, get in the car."
The police suddenly came to Xue Huaiyun's house, which alarmed the village chief. He hurried over, followed by the guests from the program team.
When Lin Weiwei saw Xue Huaiyun being escorted by the police, she was immediately shocked.
She hurried forward and said anxiously, "There must be some misunderstanding! How could Brother Xue break the law? Did Lin Jiancao say something? Uncle police, you must get to the bottom of this!"
Lin Weiwei had been eating and was not paying attention to what was happening in the live broadcast room. No one reminded her, and she didn't know what Xue Huaiyun had done.
At this point, she eagerly explained to the police, "Is it because Brother Xue was looking for Lin Jiancao in the county town? Uncle Police, they are an engaged couple, and it's only natural for them to want to know each other's whereabouts. There's no harassment involved."
Xue Huaiyun looked at Lin Weiwei with gratitude. As expected, she was different from other women. Even in such a situation, she still stood on his side and spoke for him.
The policeman called "Uncle" played the screen recording of the live broadcast without saying a word. After knowing what happened, everyone's expressions were indescribable.
Lin Weiwei's face turned pale. She didn't expect Xue Huaiyun to be so outrageous as to say such things in front of the live camera.
He was really something. Old Lady Xu had poor eyesight, but did he have poor eyesight too? Now that things were like this, how could she step down?
Everyone in the live broadcast room was going crazy.
[Lin Weiwei has always been a bad person. There must be something wrong between her and Xue Huaiyun.]
[Someone also said the video was a composite. Bah! The domestic internet has censored the video, but it's still available on the internet, and you can watch it by climbing over the firewall.]
Even with a piece of trash like Xue Huaiyun, Lin Weiwei still thinks Xiao Ji is unworthy. How much does she love him?
I thought she was innocent and even supported her online, but now I'm no longer a fan.
The village chief had not expected that Xue Huaiyun, a college student, was so evil-minded. He said sternly, "We should educate them. Although our village is remote, no one has forced marriage. Xue Huaiyun and Mrs. Xu's behavior is outrageous. Police comrades, please take them away. Everyone in our village supports this approach."
Old Lady Xu said, "I won't leave. Tell Lin Jiancao to come out and I'll beat her to death!"
Yu Zili said, "Xiao Ji is so unlucky to have a grandmother like you."
The other guests echoed this.
Qin Xu said, "You can't do anything illegal or criminal. Using online media to force a woman to marry is even more shameless. Do you think the police will just sit back and watch as public opinion ferments?"
"You're still a college student, knowingly breaking the law. You really should let your teachers see what kind of nonsense they teach you."
"I heard he can still be admitted to graduate school. Xue Huaiyun is a scumbag. The more he learns, the more harmful he becomes to society. We need to report this to Haicheng University and reserve the qualification for graduate school admission for those with both good character and academic performance."
"I know I was wrong." Xue Huaiyun felt panicked when he heard everyone talking about his qualification for admission to graduate school.
All his efforts were in preparation for inheriting Lin Jiancao's family property, even his master's degree, which he absolutely could not let be ruined.
He said, "We will receive ideological education and will not make such mistakes again. And as for Lin Jiancao, even if I like her very much, I will not joke with her or scare her again."
He chalked it all up to a joke.
[Just came over from Xiaoji's livestream. Judging from Xue Huaiyun's vicious look just now, he's definitely not joking. He means business.]
[Old Lady Xu must have been kicked in the head by a donkey, actually wanting to cooperate with Xue Huaiyun to trick her own granddaughter.]
[Has the Yun family's official website responded yet? I'm so anxious. Is Xiao Ji really Mr. Yun's granddaughter?]
[I hope that everyone is happy except Xue Huaiyun and Old Lady Xu.]
Does this count as attempted crime?
[Law students will tell you that it doesn't count. One of the characteristics of attempted crime is that the criminal act has already been committed.]
That's such a shame.
Witnessed by the villagers of Baiwu Village and hundreds of thousands of people in the live broadcast room, Xue Huaiyun and Old Lady Xu were taken into a police car and headed towards the township police station.
