Chapter 140: Notice of Detention

After everyone was brought into the interrogation room, the police station hall returned to silence.
Wen Xing and Shen Jun were already very familiar with each other. Seeing this, he knew that Shen Jun was the classmate Wen Nian had just told the police about. He pulled his wife forward excitedly to thank him. “Little Shen, I’ve really troubled you again this time!”
Shen Jun smiled and replied, “Uncle, Auntie, there’s no need to be formal. Although the situation is indeed a bit complicated, it’s fortunate that we managed to locate these individuals in the end.”
Finding those virtual addresses didn’t pose much of a challenge. The real difficulty lied in extracting information from those individuals, which demanded Shen Jun’s time and effort. Nonetheless, he regarded these tasks as mere child’s play. However, he recognized the importance of receiving recognition for his efforts. These things were done to ensure that the Wen family wouldn’t oppose his relationship with Wen Nian when they publicly announce it.
Shen Jun was hoping that the Wen Family could owe him more favors.
Wen Yu cast a glance at Shen Jun and recognized him as the classmate he had previously forbidden Wen Nian from interacting with. While he still didn’t understand the reason behind Shen Jun’s behavior back then, he realized that this classmate had helped his family so many times, as mentioned by his father and Wen Nian. A sense of unease crept over Wen Yu’s expression.
When it came to matters involving Wen Nian, Shen Jun had always been accommodating. He smiled warmly and took the initiative to greet Wen Yu. “Hello, Older Brother.”
Wen Yu nodded awkwardly. “Hello.”
Observing Shen Jun’s ability to set aside his privileged status and establish a good rapport with her family, Wen Nian felt a sense of warmth and sweetness deep within her.
About an hour later, Officer Liu had successfully interrogated all the people he had captured.
A young police officer who had recently joined the force trailed behind Officer Liu as they exited the interrogation room. He wore an expression of disbelief on his face. “Are we lucky today? Why does it feel like I’m just tagging along? I simply asked, and they spilled everything.”
Upon hearing the young policeman’s words, Officer Liu swiftly glanced at Shen Jun. He then placed a meaningful hand on his colleague’s shoulder and advised, “Remember this feeling. You don’t always have someone paving the path for you in every case.”
Before the young policeman could react to the meaning behind his words, Officer Liu had already walked straight towards Huang Yue, who was sitting at the side and making a call.
Upon spotting someone approaching, Huang Yue hastily ended her phone call. She then noticed Officer Liu holding a detention notice in his hand. “Huang Yue, you have been accused of instigating the dissemination of false information online. Please accompany us to the police station and cooperate with our investigation.
Huang Yue hurriedly stood up, her face filled with panic. “Slander! I didn’t do it! It has nothing to do with me! You can’t arrest me!”
Huang Yue was still young. She was not the ruthless adult that Wen Nian had encountered in her previous life. Just the 24 hour notice of detention had made her feeling flustered and guilty.
Officer Liu did not say much and gestured for her to leave. “Huang Yue, if you don’t move on your own, we will have to move you.”
Huang Yue glanced at the police officers who had positioned themselves on both sides of her. Her face turned pale, but she understood that resisting would only worsen the situation. With a heavy heart, she walked towards the interrogation room. As she passed by Wen Nian, she caught sight of her smiling face and glared at her with a mixture of indignation and frustration.
The police officer behind her saw Huang Yue stop in her tracks and gave her a gentle push from behind. Huang Yue staggered a few steps before continuing forward.
When the principal saw this situation, he knew that the matter was no longer under his control. He left Li Fang behind to wait for the final outcome and left first.
He had to find another investor quickly to compensate for the 800,000 yuan. Otherwise, the construction of the building would come to a halt after the vacation. With such an incident occurring at the school, he couldn’t allow it to disrupt other plans.
Li Fang’s emotions were the most complex among everyone present. Upon witnessing Huang Yue’s behavior, she had already discerned the truth.
Upon Huang Yue’s initial entry into the interrogation room, she continued to voice her grievances incessantly. However, her continuous complaints came to a halt when she laid eyes on the photos presented by the police. Witnessing the evidence, her psychological defenses crumbled entirely.
The photos displayed the moment when Huang Yue met with the head of the cyberbullying team. They also depicted her entering a taxi after leaving the location. Upon exiting the vehicle, she removed her disguise, revealing herself through her clothing and hairstyle. It was evident from these visual cues that she was the same person.
Pan Jia had only cautioned Huang Yue to be cautious about potential surveillance, but Huang Yue, not being a professional, believed that she had been careful enough.
The head of the cyberbullying team also harbored concerns about not receiving the final payment once the task was completed. To ensure they could secure the payment, they had sent individuals to follow Huang Yue. Their intention was not to extort her after the matter concluded, but rather to guarantee the successful acquisition of the final payment..
