97: Chapter 97 Long'an Bureau Operation

"Heh heh... I almost peed myself right there, laughed so hard I peed!"

"I thought he was some big shot, turns out he's nothing... Tsk, if you have the guts, send someone to arrest me right now, or I'll laugh at you for the rest of my life!"

"What level is that? Can scripts be made this realistic now? Brother, you didn't graduate from the drama department and can't find a job, did you?"

"..."

The Water Army in the live stream chat were still constantly spamming their messages.

Little did they know, they were already being watched by a pair of eyes.

Meanwhile,

The people from the Longan Bureau quickly located the source of this Water Army.

Although there were many virtual accounts, under the investigation of the Longan Bureau, they were quickly traced.

Long Anyou looked at the addresses on the screen and chuckled.

Did they really think the internet was a lawless place now?

That was truly laughable.

"Director, should we contact the local police department to issue a warning?"

The operator asked.

"Of course, we should!"

Long Anyou snorted coldly.

"Not just a warning, we need to arrest them! These people are too rampant!"

Looking at the clustered addresses, Long Anyou was furious.

Clearly, these people had come prepared long ago.

They would absolutely not give up such an opportunity to let the other party escape justice!

"Hurry up and notify the local police to arrest these people."

"Do they think no one manages the internet anymore?"

"Also, investigate them thoroughly. I suspect there might be foreign spies among these people, so check very carefully."

Long Anyou's gaze was deep.

...

Soon...

In a certain southwestern corner of Long Country,

In an underground office building, many smelly big men rubbed the dead skin off their feet, then stubbed out the cigarettes in their mouths and continued typing furiously on their keyboards.

"Damn it, watch me curse you to death!"

As he spoke, afterimages flashed across the keyboard, and in just a second or two, a complete and highly aggressive message popped up.

At the surrounding workstations, there were many similar individuals.

The entire office building was filled with the clattering sound of keyboards.

Just as everyone was feeling smug,

Bang!

Suddenly, a loud noise erupted, causing these people to freeze subconsciously.

Then, they quickly rushed toward the doorway.

But in the next second!

"Don't move! Put your hands up! All of you!"

What the hell!?

Many people were startled and their hearts skipped a beat.

They turned their heads and immediately encountered a Special Police Officer rushing over, directly fitting them with a pair of silver handcuffs.

As soon as the words fell, before the people in the underground office building could even react, some were already being handcuffed.

They all looked completely bewildered.

When could the police find this place?

And why were they arresting them...

One of them spoke up, looking aggrieved:

"Officers, we don't know what we did wrong for you to arrest us?"

"What did you do wrong? All of this equipment here is your criminal tools."

"Did you think there was no one to manage you on the internet?"

"Today, everyone who committed an offense here will be taken back!"

A Police Captain snorted coldly, saying in a detached tone.

As soon as this was said, the people here froze for a moment, and their expressions quickly turned grim.

However, they all knew what they had done, so naturally, they wouldn't admit it so easily.

These people were not honest online, so they were unlikely to be honest people in the real world either.

One person who looked like the leader chuckled.

"Officer, you're making things difficult for us. We were just fighting against fakes online, for the sake of the general public! What wrong did we do?"

"How come when we get to you, we become heinous criminals?"

"Besides, you can't possibly arrest us just because we cursed at someone a couple of times, right?"

"If you say so, then everyone in this world who uses a smartphone and posts a few comments should deserve death?"

He truly was the head of the Water Army.

His mind was still working.

He glared angrily.

"If you don't give us a reason today, you absolutely cannot take us away!"

"Furthermore, don't police officers need evidence when handling cases? If my huge studio did anything illegal, as long as you can find it, never mind you laying a hand on us, I will turn myself in!"

The leader spoke convincingly.

He winked, certain that these police officers couldn't actually arrest them!

After all, the moment he noticed the police arriving, he immediately deleted all the evidence on the hard drives.

Even if they wanted to search, they might not find anything!

However, the Police Captain just chuckled.

Since they dared to come here, they had naturally prepared for everything.

"Captain, we found the device used for storing data..."

"That thing is too big, we can't move it."

Soon, a junior police officer ran over and whispered.

"Take me to see it!"

The Police Director said nothing; he just cast a cold glance at the Water Army leader and quickly walked over.

The Water Army leader just chuckled.

If these people really managed to find it, what a disaster that would be?

Since he could run such a large studio, he naturally wasn't worried about this happening. Right from the start, he had completely wiped the data clean.

These people shouldn't hope to find anything from it.

Soon, they arrived in front of a switch.

Plugged into it was a dusty object, which seemed to be the hard drive used for data storage in this studio.

"Open it and take a look..."

"There seems to be nothing inside..."

Soon, the junior officer's face looked a bit grim.

The Water Army leader, however, smiled faintly and feigned innocence:

"Officer, our studio just opened, there’s nothing here. You must have arrested the wrong people."

But as soon as these words came out, the Police Captain let out a faint cold snort.

Nonsense!

"If you just opened, why is the storage device covered in dust?"

"Oh dear, Officer, it’s not that we don't want to, but we just bought the equipment and don't have the money, so we had to use second-hand stuff..."

"We already said this is a newly opened studio. If you don't believe us, there's nothing we can do. Otherwise, why is there no data inside?"

The Water Army leader chuckled, refusing to admit anything.

However, the police snorted coldly.

No data is easy to handle; just restore it!

Soon, he stepped forward and plugged the USB drive in his hand into the storage device.

The others didn't know that the police had plenty of ways to restore this data.

And it was all thanks to Lin Heng!
