[Collapse the World] did not continue to send new messages. Maybe it was sleeping.
Zhang Zian temporarily borrowed Pi's computer, deleted the original web crawler used to search for cat abuse incidents, and replaced it with a new web crawler used to search for dog poisoning incidents.
Whether it was cat abuse or dog poisoning, what was seen in the newspapers and media was only the tip of the iceberg. Most of it stopped in the local forums of small and medium-sized cities, where a bored otaku posted a post late at night — "Boring post, the dog in our community was poisoned to death," similar to this. Below the post, there were two or three cats, expressing their emotions. Most of them were cynical, saying that the dog deserved to be poisoned to death.
This kind of post would stay for at most one or two days, and it might even be replaced by other posts during the day, provided that there were no dog owners who could not stand it, clicked on it, and quarreled with the post. Then it would evolve into cursing, greeting each other's female relatives, and finally, a fight at the school gate … That was the general process.
The main reason why isoniazid was so popular was that this drug was in the gray area of the law.
In the past, when Zhang Zian and Famous were filming a movie, the pyrotechnician Guan Biao tried to poison Famous and two other police dogs with the cigarette cake props of the crew. The principle was that the sulfur dioxide produced by the combustion of sulfur was heavier than air. Humans whose heads were higher from the ground would not be able to inhale it, but dogs whose heads were lower from the ground would inhale it. In addition, when the sulfur entered the dog's body, it would cause a hidden hemolytic reaction.
In the end, Guan Biao, who went for wool and came home shorn, was handed over to the public security organ because he was suspected of putting dangerous substances in public. This was the end he deserved, and there was no dispute, because sulfur dioxide was considered a dangerous substance in any country.
But isoniazid was different. It was a real anti-tuberculosis drug with low side effects, and it was not harmful to people occasionally mistakenly taking it. Whether this drug could be judged as putting dangerous substances in public was a very controversial issue.
There was a "judicial precedent principle" in the law, which meant that the legal principles in previous judgments were binding on similar cases in the future. This was to maintain the authority of the law. It could not be said that in the same case, if the court of A City found someone guilty and the court of B City found them not guilty, then the law would be worthless. Whether someone was guilty or not depended on whether the court of A City or the court of B City came first.
Although China's law was written law, not case law, the use of precedent was still very great.
The key to the current dog-poisoning incident was that none of the dog-poisoners had been caught and charged with releasing dangerous substances. If there was a first case, the court would be able to determine the nature of isoniazid, and all similar cases in the future could follow the principles of the first case.
No amount of legal education was more effective than actual judgments and precedents. For example, the news of a person who was sentenced to five years in prison for raising, breeding and selling grey parrots had greatly shocked many bird raisers who didn't take it seriously before. They had washed their hands of the law and stopped raising grey parrots without a license. This was the power of the law.
Large and medium-sized cities were filled with surveillance cameras. Would it be difficult to catch dog poisoners? It wasn't difficult.
The problem was that there were too many people who raised dogs, much more than people who raised grey parrots. Both the dog poisoner and the dog owner had a lot of resentment. The relevant departments didn't want to offend either side, so they adopted an attitude of smoothing things over. They didn't want to set a precedent.
To be honest, this matter couldn't be completely blamed on the relevant departments, because whether they were convicted or not, a lot of other problems might arise.
But could such a thing really be resolved? Not necessarily.
History had proven countless times and would continue to prove that contradictions were always quietly accumulating in places that people didn't notice, and who knew when they would completely erupt.
This time was different from the cat abuse incident. Zhang Zian had no clue, and he didn't feel that he could have any impact on this kind of thing. Although he felt regret and pity in his heart, he didn't have too high a sense of urgency.
Regret and pity were because dog biting, hurting, scaring, disturbing, and other behaviors were indeed wrong and even illegal, but this didn't mean that using evil to control evil was the right way to do it. Superheroes like the Punisher should only exist in the capitalist world, and it was not in line with the core values of socialism.
At present, the storm caused by the cat abuse incident and Pi's novel had temporarily subsided, and the date of going to Egypt was approaching. The dog-poisoning incident could only be delayed until he returned from Egypt smoothly.
Moreover, it would take time for the web crawler to collect, analyze, and sort out information related to the incident. After all, he had an old laptop and a home broadband network, and its performance was limited.
He went downstairs, and the staff came to work as usual. Without waiting for his instructions, they began to work, joking as they worked.
Lu Yiyun was the last to come in. She hurried into the shop, put her backpack on the cashier, took Jasmine out of the bag, and let it play in the shop by itself. She hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm late! "
She rented a house in the community opposite the pet shop. It was the closest, and it was only a few steps away. Usually, she always arrived on time or early, but today she was a little late. Of course, the pet shop did not have fixed working hours, so it wouldn't deduct money because of this. After all, Zhang Zian claimed to be the conscience of the industry.
"It's okay. It's still early, and there are no customers this early anyway," Zhang Zian said. "Everyone gets up late sometimes. I got up late two days ago."
Wang Qian held the broom and coughed. He wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhang Zian's face, he swallowed his words.
"It's not that I got up late, but something happened in the community. The entrance was blocked, and I couldn't get out. In the end, I had to go around the side door to get out." She picked up a rag to wipe the table and the monitor, and explained. She didn't want to be misunderstood by everyone and think that she was late on purpose to push all the work to others.
"What happened?" Li Kun came over and gossiped. "Was the adulterer caught in bed by a mistress? Or did a master come to the community to bless the woman who had lost her virginity? "
His words contained too much information, and Lu Yiyun couldn't react for a long time. Finally, she shook her head and said, "No, it seems that the owner's dog was poisoned to death. The owner was so angry that he brought his relatives and friends to block the guardhouse at the entrance of the community, and asked the security guard to pull out the surveillance video."
Zhang Zian didn't care at first, but when he heard that it was another dog poisoning incident, and a dog poisoning incident that happened so close to him, he couldn't help but be excited.
Although he had listened to [Collapse the World]'s narration, he always felt that the dog poisoning incident was very far away from him. He didn't expect to encounter a living case right away.
"What happened? Tell me, "he asked.
