16: Chapter 16: Video Recording Obtained, Education Department Conducts Thorough Investigation

Inside a massage parlor.

A security guard from the Medical University, with a horse-like face and unkempt appearance, was enjoying himself at this moment.

"Technician No. 98, massage me properly."

Xu Ping said to the woman at his feet, bossing her around.

The woman at his feet nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay!"

As she spoke, her skillful hands increased the pressure, nearly sending Xu Ping's soul flying out of his body.

"Old Xu, you're doing well for yourself. How did you suddenly get so much money recently?"

Beside him, another greasy man showed a mouth full of yellow teeth and chuckled.

Xu Ping was the one who brought him to the massage parlor this time.

This really made him look at him with new eyes.

This Xu Ping was just a security guard at the Medical University.

His salary was only around four or five thousand.

He was usually very stingy.

Even when drinking beer, he insisted on splitting the bill.

But today.

The guy actually invited him to come for a massage together.

He even said he would treat him to barbecue, beer, and pretty girls later.

Xu Ping smiled smugly. Riding the high of his near-out-of-body experience, he said recklessly: "Didn't expect that, did you? Even a security guard like me, Xu Ping, can make a fortune."

"Don't look down on me just because I'm a security guard. I've made quite a lot of money by selling recordings."

"Some are recordings of couples in the corners of the school."

"Some are voyeuristic recordings..."

"Of course, these recordings aren't worth much, just a thousand or so."

"I recently received a big order. Guess how much? One hundred thousand!"

"And in USD, too."

Xu Ping bragged smugly to his friend about how he had gotten rich by selling school surveillance recordings.

"So, you must still have a backup of the recording in your possession?"

Suddenly.

A voice rang out.

Xu Ping was stunned. Why did his friend's voice suddenly change tone?

He opened his eyes and turned his head to look.

He didn't know when, but several fully armed men were standing beside him.

His friend had long since had a black gun barrel pressed against his mouth, and he didn't dare utter a single word.

Xu Ping was scared out of his wits instantly: "Holy crap, who are you people? Don't kill me!"

"We won't kill you. Just be honest and tell us where the recording you mentioned is."

A Dragon Warrior spoke.

These Dragon Warriors were specially trained and enhanced with genetic agents. Their movements were silent, making it very difficult for ordinary people to detect them.

"I... I was just bragging!"

Xu Ping's eyes darted around, still clinging to a sliver of hope.

"Bragging? Fine, let's see if you can still brag when you get to the interrogation room."

"Take him away!"

With the order given.

Xu Ping was hauled out of the massage parlor by the Dragon Warrior.

Inside the interrogation room.

It was pitch black.

Looking at the various props hanging all around, sweat dripped down his forehead, drop by drop.

Yet there was no one around; the room was cramped and deathly quiet, giving him immense pressure.

The mental pressure was gradually increasing.

He didn't know how much time had passed.

Suddenly, he couldn't take it anymore.

At this moment, a masked Dragon Warrior suddenly appeared at the door.

Holding a red-hot iron knife in his hand.

Xu Ping's heart collapsed instantly, and he screamed: "I'll confess! I'll confess!"

"I have a backup of the recording in my email. My email address is... the password is..."

Xu Ping spilled everything in a rush.

Terrified that the other person might put the red-hot iron knife on him.

"Oh, that's right."

The Dragon Warrior smiled slightly.

He relayed the information to Minister Zhou Anbang of the Longan Department.

And Minister Zhou Anbang quickly obtained the recording from the email.

He only took one glance before sneering.

Sure enough.

Everything was a slander.

In the elevator, Jiang Chen did not make any moves toward Jiang Qingqing the entire time.

On the contrary, it was Jiang Qingqing who initiated the conversation.

Later, it seemed like she failed to strike up a conversation, so she leaned directly onto him.

What happened after that was her screaming and shouting, which everyone already knew.

"Post it to Weibo, then make the arrests."

Minister Zhou Anbang ordered.

"Yes!"

The technical staff quickly posted the recording to Weibo.

And it was published using the official account of the Longan Department.

[Miss Jiang Qingqing, is this what you call a perverted hand?]

It was just a simple sentence.

Plus a five-minute unedited recording.

Once this Weibo post went out.

The entire Weibo exploded instantly.

Public opinion reversed rapidly!

[Holy crap! This woman was throwing herself at him the whole time, and she f***ing failed!]

[Not only did she fail, but she also turned around and framed him! Tsk tsk!]

[Just like that, and she still dared to slander someone as a pervert?]

[Where are the feminists who were shouting before? Tag Jiang Qingqing, come out and take your beating.]

Facing the support of countless normal people, some feminist accounts struggled: [How can you be sure that this recording hasn't been edited?]

In response to this comment, the operations staff of the Longan Department quickly replied: [Are you saying that we at the Longan Department falsified it?]

Everyone swarmed to like this comment: [Hahaha, questioning the Longan Department, that's hilarious!]

[Why don't you dare to reply anymore?]

The reply from the Longan Department operations staff received one hundred thousand likes, but those feminists dared not reply anymore.

Instead, they tried to change the subject: [Even if the recording is real, his expulsion from school isn't fake, right? A scumbag like this, and the respectable Longan Department actually stepped in to defend him?]

[One thing at a time. Besides, how do you know the announcement released by Ocean University is entirely true?]

The feminist sneered: [The announcement from the Longan Department isn't fake, but the official announcement from Ocean University, could it be fake? Why be so double-standard!]

Seeing that the matter of Jiang Chen's "perverted hand" was clarified, these people started making a big deal out of Jiang Chen's expulsion!

And at this moment.

The Department of Education had also entered Ocean University to begin a thorough investigation into the matter.

Inside a large conference room.

Principal Lai Jinsheng and five teachers were sitting there.

These five teachers were Jiang Chen's teachers for his four years of undergraduate studies.

Opposite them, Director Cai Minghui, the head of the Department of Education, was presiding in person.

"Today's matter is very serious."

"I hope each of you will take responsibility for what you say."

"Bear the consequences yourself!"

Director Cai Minghui said slowly.

As soon as these words were spoken, Principal Lai Jinsheng felt immense pressure.

Although he had already arranged things with those five teachers, he still spoke nervously: "Director Cai, the matter regarding student Jiang Chen is actually set in stone, so there is no need to investigate it again."

"Not investigate? Why don't you sign this document, and we won't investigate?" Director Cai Minghui glanced at him.

Principal Lai Jinsheng gave a dry laugh: "Director Cai, you're joking. Please go ahead and investigate; we will definitely cooperate."

As he spoke, he gave the other five teachers a look.

The meaning was clear: don't speak out of turn.

"Teacher Sun, please tell me, how did student Jiang Chen perform in your Oceanography course? Please answer truthfully."

Director Cai Minghui spoke.

That Teacher Sun glanced at Principal Lai Jinsheng, then answered with shifty eyes: "He often slept in class, basically didn't submit assignments, and for this Oceanography course, he failed and had to retake it twice..."
