Chapter 21 I Want to Become an Editor
Han Fei was the only one who enjoyed the meal.

Qi Qingyi lost her appetite completely after watching the contents of the cloud disk. Most of the dishes on the table went to Han Fei. The netizens who watched the variety show were left with a suspenseful look. They were extremely curious about Qi Qingyi's family background, what gossip they had just shared in the distance, and what cooperation they had reached.

The trending searches were quiet, with only the entry about Han Fei's singing recording rising quietly. As for the rest, netizens who were watching the live broadcast had opened a special post behind the scenes to chat loudly.

Everything seemed calm.

However, some people have already started to get anxious.

…………

"Director, we just received a report that a celebrity named Lu Siyuan was having sex with a group of people, drugging and mistreating innocent women, and was involved in sexual transactions. The report email included a link to Lu Siyuan's cloud disk as well as his account number and password. He recorded the entire process of drugging and mistreating women, and there were videos of not only himself, but also of him sending people to other rooms. The account has been authenticated by real name, and its ownership can be confirmed."

"Please advise!"

At the Changshan Municipal Bureau, the door of the director's office was knocked three times, and then a young man and a middle-aged man came in, saluted, and reported loudly.

The director was stunned for a moment, holding the thermos cup in his hand in mid-air, not knowing whether to drink it or put it down.

After a long pause, he put down the cup silently:

"It's been made so clear..."

"What about the source of the email? Have you found out who reported it?"

The young policeman hesitated for a moment, shook his head and nodded:

"The whistleblower has a very high level of technical skills. He used a newly registered overseas email address. The IP address is on an overseas island. It is obviously a fake IP address and cannot be found for the time being."

"But...he left a message at the end, saying that this was just an appetizer, and if we were willing to let him be an informant and not hold him accountable, he would continue to provide us with evidence and reports in the future."

The director just picked up the thermos cup to take a sip but put it down again.

The expression on his face was a little weird:
"So this guy not only has a pretty high level of computer skills, but he's also planning to be a vigilante and continue collecting evidence and arresting people for the police?"

"What is he after? Did he offer a reward, or is he involved in these things and is planning to become a tainted witness to reduce his sentence?"

Another middle-aged policeman shook his head, apparently also finding it outrageous:

"No, he didn't ask for anything. He also guaranteed that he was innocent, had no criminal record, and had never done anything illegal. He only had one request, which was... if there was a chance in the future, he wanted to join our unit."

"The email account was a string of English words, UltramanLight. I didn't realize it at the time, but a young colleague next to me saw it and said it meant Ultraman and Light..."

"Uh, this guy looks like a simple, angry young man who hates evil?"

The director was dumbfounded.

Changshan City is the provincial capital and is famous for its rich nightlife. A dozen or twenty years ago, the city was actually quite chaotic. Coupled with the developed tertiary industry, they received quite a few reports related to the entertainment industry and made quite a few arrests, but most of those with anything to do with celebrities were transferred to Beijing for handling.

The reason is simple. Although there is a leading local TV station in the domestic industry, which has attracted many celebrities to buy houses here, they will not settle down here. Their permanent residences are still in places like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen or Hengdian, especially Beijing. People are not very brave to do bad things in places they are not familiar with, but at home, they are not so brave.

Except for a small number of public figures who have settled in Changshan City, the police often do not follow up on the reports received. At best, the reported persons only dare to do it once, and it is difficult to find evidence.

But today's situation...

The evidence of the crime has been shoved right in front of his face. Even if the procedure is not very compliant, as long as we bring Lu Siyuan back for interrogation and put the video in his face, are we still afraid that he won't confess?
Then they should just stop wearing this kind of clothes. "Director, in this case, do we have the power to give them a salary..."

The middle-aged man asked hesitantly.

They had never encountered such a situation before, but they had heard that if they came across any special technical talents, the higher-ups would be willing to recruit them.

However, this kind of case will not be kept in their municipal bureau, but will be taken directly to the National Security Bureau.

The director has now calmed down and has returned to his usual calm state. He sipped his tea and said:

"That's all for the future, why worry about it now?"

"Since the other party has a special identity and the video involves other people, we can't just bring him in for questioning, so as not to alarm other suspects."

"First, check this... this Lu Siyuan's identity and background, as well as his interpersonal relationships and so on. Try to investigate everything and do your best to handle it without causing any disturbance. Make sure the case is real and can be done. Then arrest and try him. Finally, consider giving Ultraman a reward."

"By the way, do you know where Lu Siyuan is now?"

The young man next to him couldn't wait to answer:

"He's recording a show in Changshan City, live broadcast. I just checked and he's at the Black Swan Restaurant right now!"

The director spat out all the tea with a "puff".

He looked up in shock:
"What kind of Ultraman is this? He just sent out a report email at this time. Could it be that he wants the police to arrest him in front of the live camera?!"

"How big of a personal grudge is this? Is he really going to make Lu Siyuan socially dead by doing this?"

"No, you guys should quickly email him back and tell him that since this case involves so many people, just hand the case over to the police. We will handle it. Don't act rashly and don't spread the video content online privately. Otherwise, the other party will be alerted and we won't be able to find any evidence or arrest the person. Go!"

The young policeman seemed to be prepared. He took out a laptop from his briefcase, turned it on, and started replying quickly by typing on the keyboard.

After a while, the computer made a ding-dong sound to indicate that a new email had arrived.

He stared at the screen stupidly for a while, without saying anything, and pushed the computer directly in front of the director.

"Director, look, he replied to the email."

The director put on his reading glasses and squinted at the screen.

The email reply was not long.

[I am someone who wants to be in the editorial department, I know the limits, and I cannot disclose my information right now, because they are not only doing this, but also involving drugs, so I will trouble you to arrange more surveillance. This case involves a wide range of people, and the amount... is also large, enough to execute dozens of people.]

The director took a deep breath, took out a bottle of quick-acting heart pills from the drawer and put them in his mouth.

After calming down for several minutes.

He slapped the table and said in a deep voice:

"Call the people from the Narcotics Control Team, and notify the Beijing side. Our city bureau cannot handle this case, so we need to conduct a joint investigation!"
