Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss

Captain Wang’s expression was unfriendly. “All the accounts belonged to you. You didn’t do it? Could it be that we, the police, are deliberately framing you? Don’t play innocent with me. The phrase that I’ve heard most here is ‘I didn’t do it’.”

Li Jia started to cry. “I didn’t spread those rumors. It was someone else. Someone framed me.”

“We’ll find out if there’s any false accusation.” Captain Wang said.

On the other side, Tan Rou was also being questioned. She was the one who reported the case, but the police couldn’t just listen to her. They had to investigate what needed to be investigated clearly.

“We’ve already verified the authenticity of this information but there are some things we still need to figure out.” Officer Xiao Li mentioned to tan Rou.

Tan Rou sat opposite her quietly. “Of course.”

“There’s a lot of evidence here, such as the IP address of the rumor monger. How did you find them? We have a basic understanding of your situation. You are merely a high school student. One of your parents is an ordinary staff member, the other is a housewife along with an older brother and younger brother. However, they have no background involved in tech.”

Tan Rou understood what Officer Xiao Li meant. They wanted to know where the evidence came from. This evidence was not something that a small high school student could find.

Tan Rou answered honestly, “It was found by another victim of this incident. I’ve met him a few times. He doesn’t sleep well, and I happen to have an ancestral incense at home that could help him with that. We got to know each other after a few times. If you don’t believe me, you can ask him for confirmation. Also, the person who introduced us is a Chinese medicine doctor called Bai Jing. He’s quite famous in the industry, so you can also check with him.”

Since she had said so, the police had to make a call and ask. This incident had caused a huge impact on the internet, and many people were involved. The police had to be careful.

Tan Rou was not worried about the police’s investigation. First, everything that she got was obtained legally. Second, Bai Jing and Zhuang Liu had already been informed of what should and shouldn’t be said. She believed that they would understand.

The police called to confirm the truth of Tan Rou’s words and then recorded her testimony in the file.

After Officer Xiao Li finished her list of questions, she gave Tan Rou psychological counseling as usual. After all, this incident had seriously damaged Tan Rou’s reputation. She was only a high school student, so it was inevitable that it would have been traumatic to Tan Rou. As a police officer, one of their jobs was to comfort the victim.

“Tan Rou, right?” Xiao Li closed the notebook and smiled gently.

“We know that this incident has caused a great impact on you. After the police have completed their investigation and collected evidence, we will contact the cyber police to delete these negative comments. Don’t think too much about it! Go back and eat and drink well. Just wait patiently for an update from us.”

Tan Rou nodded. “Alright. I have faith in the police force.”

“Such a brave and strong girl,” Xiao Li complimented her. “It’s true. I’ve seen many young girls who have been hurt by rumors,but none of them are as strong as you. Some choose to commit suicide, some suffered from depression, and som even go to the extreme because of the rumors. Only a very small number of them can muster the courage to face their enemies and call the police. You are the calmest and smartest person I’ve seen in all my years as a police officer.”

Tan Rou raised her head and said confidently, “That’s because I believe that the truth will come to light one day. Before that day comes, I must be strong.”

Xiao Li was very happy to hear her say this. “Good job! You look like a strong and good child. Go back and study hard, don’t care about what other people think. Just like you said, the innocent will have her name cleared.”

“Alright.” Tan Rou said with a smile.

“We’ve informed your parents. When they arrive later, you can go back with them. We’ll let you know if there’s any further progress.” Xiao Li printed out the statement.

“You can leave after you sign here.”

Tan Rou took the thick piece of paper and signed her name.

“Sir, I really didn’t!” The sound of Li Jia’s mental breakdown came from the interrogation room.

“I didn’t do it. I didn’t do it!”

“Will she go to jail?” Tan Rou asked, pretending to be concerned.

“Of course.” Xiao Li answered. “Those who slander others will go to jail. She’s already 16 years old, so she can bear criminal responsibility.”

“What about the others who spread the rumors?” Tan Rou asked.

“They will be held accountable according to the law. Don’t worry. We will make sure to restore justice for you.” Xiao Li reassured her,

“Thank you, officer.” Tan Rou’s face was full of smiles.
