"Yes, we need a media with a conscience. What I need is the truth. Great, you have to hold on."
…
Fangzheng nearly smashed his cell phone in anger when he saw this. What the heck was this? Were these people fools? However, Fangzheng quickly realized something terrifying. This matter was probably about to undergo a huge change! He had to think of a way to stop it or something would happen!
Fangzheng rode on Salted Fish again and rushed back. At the same time, he took out his cell phone and constantly searched for news about Gulin City. Fangzheng's expression turned extremely ugly when he did so. He saw dozens of related news articles on the web page!
Apart from a few Internet celebrities, there were also some tabloids and small websites that he had never heard of.
One of the small websites directly posted: "Murderer wielding a submachine gun killed someone on the streets! With such a strong background, the police don't dare touch him! "
When he opened it, the content was even more nonsense. However, what infuriated Fangzheng even more was that these people had pointed out Wang Dayou's name. However, Wang Dayou's background was infinitely mythical. It was just short of saying that he was the son of a big shot. They even said that Wang Dayou had killed someone on the streets, and the police didn't dare arrest him. All they did was surround him and watch the commotion. It looked like they were surrounding him, but in fact, they were protecting him!
There was also an Internet celebrity named The World Is So Wide That I Am So Broad. "This arrogant young master killed someone with a gun. After killing two people, he went shopping in peace! With the police protecting him, no one dares to touch him! Where's the justice in this? "
Similarly, below these news articles, there were countless angry replies. Countless people demanded that Wang Dayou be shot and that he be investigated to find out who his backer was!
Fangzheng felt that something was amiss the more he read. Why were there so many replies on these unpopular news websites? Were people starting to read small websites? Were they that influential?
Unfortunately, Fangzheng wasn't good at such things, nor did he know anything about them. All he could do was urge Salted Fish to hurry up. He wanted to rush over and ask Jing Yan what was going on. Why were there so many people stirring up trouble? They were fabricating fake news! Didn't they know that every word they said concerned a person's life and death, or even the life and death of a family?
Soon, Fangzheng rushed back to the store. However, he wasn't in a rush to enter. Instead, he patted Salted Fish on the head and said, "This Penniless Monk will give you a mission. Are you doing it?"
"What mission? Can I catch my breath first? " Salted Fish took out his walking stick again, looking like an old man. He hunched his back and looked pitiful as he panted.
Fangzheng couldn't be bothered with the fellow who often acted old and pitiful in exchange for benefits. Instead, he said, "Go to the crowd and see who is fabricating rumors and spreading the news. If you do well, when we get back, I'll double the amount of food for dinner! "
"Really!?" Salted Fish's eyes lit up as he immediately asked.
Fangzheng nodded. "Of course!"
"I want to have my fill!" Salted Fish's eyes darted around as he took the opportunity to raise the price.
Fangzheng narrowed his eyes as he looked at Salted Fish. Salted Fish immediately had an ominous feeling. Thinking back to how he had been scammed by Fangzheng a few times, he hurriedly said, "Forget it. I won't bargain when it comes to doing good. Remember, double it! "
With that said, Salted Fish put away his cane and was instantly rejuvenated. He hopped into the crowd energetically.
When Fangzheng saw this, he cursed inwardly, "This fellow is indeed acting! This darn fish is really f * * king unreliable! " After exhorting Salted Fish not to expose himself and to make himself invisible, Fangzheng entered the store again.
Seeing Fangzheng return as though he was shopping in a supermarket, the people in the store felt their brains fail. They really couldn't figure out what means the monk had used to come and go as he pleased.
Jing Yan was already accustomed to Fangzheng's miracles, so she didn't have many questions. Instead, she immediately went forward and asked, "How's the salesperson?"
Fangzheng smiled. "He's fine now. I believe he will wake up soon. This Penniless Monk has said what needs to be said. The rest is up to Patron Qiu. "
"Does that mean there are still variables on the other side?" Just as Wang Dayou was about to rejoice, he immediately turned gloomy.
Fangzheng patted Wang Dayou on the shoulder and said, "Patron, regardless of whether you did it on purpose or not, you have indeed hurt Patron Qiu. Even if he doesn't forgive you, there's nothing to complain about. Humans have to bear the corresponding responsibility for what they have done. By helping you, This Penniless Monk can only prevent you from being maligned and punished. Do you understand? "
Wang Dayou said nervously, "But if he doesn't forgive me, I'll have to go to jail. I … I can't go to jail." With that said, he cried again.
Jing Yan looked at Wang Dayou and couldn't help saying, "Master, can't you help him to the end?"
Fangzheng returned with a question. "Then who will help Patron Qiu?"
Jing Yan was left speechless. She wanted to say that Qiu Yu was fine now. But on second thought, Qiu Yu should have been fine to begin with. It was all because of Wang Dayou that he had suffered an undeserved calamity. Therefore, Qiu Yu was the truly innocent person in this entire matter!
With this in mind, Jing Yan fell silent.
"Is there no other solution? I … I can help Wang Dayou prove his innocence, "Xia Jili suddenly said.
Fangzheng nodded slightly at Xia Jili. "Your words are obviously very useful, but Qiu Yu's matter has nothing to do with you."
Xia Jili turned agape, but he ultimately didn't say a word.
Seeing the mood turn a little gloomy, Fangzheng hurriedly diverted the topic and called Jing Yan to the side. He got her to read Weibo and the news, but before Jing Yan finished reading, she cursed. "These bastards. For money and fame, they are so shameless? Without any investigation, they are just making things up with their imaginations? Has their conscience been eaten by dogs? No, even dogs aren't that shameless! "
Fangzheng said, "These people are fine. This Penniless Monk just can't figure out why so many people believe such fake news. Furthermore, why are there so many people supporting them? "
Jing Yan chuckled coldly. "Supporting? Are you really thinking too highly of them? They are just a bunch of clowns that can't even be seen in public! Look, what kind of people are the ones who exposed this fake news? None of them are famous verified users. They are just dabblers who are taking the opportunity to leech off the popularity and profit. As for those who support them, they aren't necessarily living people either. "
"Even dead people use Weibo? Has Weibo become so popular? "Fangzheng was surprised.
