The Green Tree Villa murder case could not be kept under wraps. The next day, many local media outlets reported on the case.
Although the details of the case were not clear, there were at least twelve victims, and they even had guns.
On the third day, the Fu Zhou City Bureau decided to publicize the case. They held a press conference to introduce the case in detail.
The most shocking part was the identities of the victims. There were eight poachers who had been poaching in Lingnan. They were experienced poachers. Not only did they hunt rare animals, but they also often caught some rare animals as pets for their clients. Compared to poaching, the latter was more profitable.
Not only that, these poachers were also involved in five murder cases in Lingnan. They were all wanted criminals on the run. Among them, Huang Sheng was responsible for three lives, and they were all police officers!
According to the case file from Lingnan, these people were all evil people. The Lingnan police had been chasing them for many years, but to no avail. Recently, this group of people escaped to Fu Zhou to commit crimes. Four of them were arrested by the police, and eight were murdered in the Green Tree Villa area.
As for the other four, the police did not provide much information to the media. They just casually mentioned that they were involved in gangs.
But just that was enough for the media and the public to imagine that there were twelve victims. Was it a revenge murder? Or was it a double cross?
When the police found out that there was a high possibility that there was only one culprit, and it was suspected to be a professional killer, Fu Zhou exploded.
This piece of information caused an uproar in Fu Province. One must know that three of the victims were scattered about 100 to 300 meters away from the villa. It could be said that from the scene, these 12 people were chased to death. If it was done by one person, then how powerful was this person?
Twelve strong men with guns were chased by one person, and in the end, they were all killed in one shot.
Was this a movie? Was this killer too cold? Or was it the Assassin Alliance?
Four to five days after the Green Tree Villa incident, the case gradually spread. Because the victims were all criminals and wanted criminals, the public did not panic because of the huge murder case. Instead, they were all talking about this killer.
After all, the job of a killer was too far away from the public, especially such a powerful person. Most people did not think that it would affect their lives.
Therefore, the public's topic quickly changed from the murder case to the mysterious killer.
Some people were discussing whether there was such a movie-like killer in this world, killing ten people in one shot.
Some people were discussing the purpose of this assassin. Was it possible that he killed one person every ten steps to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens?
Some college students were even wondering if the assassin was a man or a woman and what he looked like. Did he have a cold and gentle personality?
As a result, some people on the Internet began to worship the killer, and the topic had long forgotten the murder case itself.
Soon, in order to reverse public opinion, many media outlets began to promote the correct legal concept. No matter what reason this killer had, he was still a criminal.
Murder was a crime. No matter whether the person he killed deserved to die or not, he had violated the law and was definitely not worthy of being promoted or worshipped.
…
No matter how big of a storm this case caused in Fu Province, Lan Mu had already returned to Shanghai when he saw the public opinion, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"This incident caused a huge uproar in the city. Luckily, the authorities of the Fu Province tried their best to cover it up. In the end, there wasn't much trouble!"
"Nowadays, everyone's focus isn't on whether or not you're a major murder case."
Lan Mu smiled and turned off the news on his phone. His mind returned to his own matters in Shanghai.
"I don't know what's wrong with the news agency. Chief Editor Liang blocked me. I have to find Cheng Ming first to find out more."
Lan Mu didn't go to the news agency as soon as he arrived in Shanghai. Instead, he went home first. It was a rented apartment with one bedroom and one living room. He lived alone and was very carefree.
As soon as he got home, he called Cheng Ming again. This time, the call went through very quickly.
"Brother Mu, what's up? I just returned to Shanghai, and you already know? "Cheng Ming's voice was very loud. He was usually loud and carefree, and it was as if he was afraid that others couldn't hear him.
When Lan Mu heard this, he immediately understood. He asked, "You went on a business trip too?"
"That's right. Two days after you left, I went to Changzhou with Boss Yang. I heard that an ancient tomb from the Han Dynasty was unearthed there. Our news agency sent 16 people! I went too. You don't say, it's really awesome. I heard that it's the ancient tomb from the Han Dynasty that has the greatest archaeological contribution. "
Lan Mu asked, "How can something like excavating an ancient tomb be done in a week?"
Cheng Ming coughed twice and finally lowered his voice.
"Isn't that … Uh … We don't need so many people? It's said that the excavation will take three to four years. Our news agency only left two people there permanently. That's why I came back. "
Lan Mu nodded and said, "Then you don't know the situation in the news agency these few days?"
"Situation? What situation? "
Lan Mu had a good relationship with Cheng Ming. He directly told him about how he was taken down from the Fences Mountain and lived a savage life for seven days. Then, he fought with the poachers and escaped with his life. After that, he helped the police to solve the case.
He told Cheng Ming everything that he could. Just this alone was bizarre enough. How could an ordinary person encounter such things? It could be said that his experience was enough to make a big news story.
"… You don't know. That shot hit my left arm. Luckily, I was lying on the ground at that time. Otherwise, if my leg was injured, you wouldn't be able to see me anymore!"
"… That's the basic situation. You can check the news from Fu Zhou these few days. You'll know that I'm not lying to you. It's really a big case! I identified the corpse at a close distance! "
"… Chief Editor Liang definitely blocked me. When I call him, he's always on the line. Even if he wants to fire me, there should be a formal termination procedure, right? Just pretend that I don't exist? What do you think this is? "
Cheng Ming listened and digested it for a long time before saying, "Brother Mu, you went on a business trip and encountered so many things? Tsk tsk, why didn't I go on a business trip? "
"Don't talk nonsense. It seems like you don't know what's going on. I wanted to find you to find out more, but forget it. I'd better hurry to the news agency!" Lan Mu shook his head and said.
Cheng Ming hurriedly said, "Okay, come quickly. I'll be at the news agency soon. I'll help you find out more, okay? I say, Brother Mu, why are you always so suspicious? Logically speaking, you've been missing for so many days and you didn't even take a leave. I couldn't find you even if I tried. No wonder Chief Editor Liang blocked you! "
"Tsk!" Lan Mu was too lazy to talk to him. After hanging up, he tidied up his appearance and found another bank card at home. Then, he went out.
He first withdrew a thousand yuan to fill up his empty pockets. Then, he took a taxi to Chenguang News Agency.
When he got out of the car at the entrance of the news agency, he received a call from Cheng Ming.
"How is it? Is Chief Editor Liang there? "
Cheng Ming said, "Brother Mu, something's wrong! Chief Editor Liang unilaterally announced your resignation. Your office has been occupied … "
Lan Mu frowned and said, "What's the situation? Where are the things in my office? "
"They're all in the warehouse. Do you want me to get them for you?" Cheng Ming said.
"Get your head! Erm … Is the Chief Editor there? "
No matter what, Lan Mu had worked here for a few years. Even if he was absent from work for a few days, he could still terminate his contract. But how could he just fire him when he wasn't around? Not even informing him? Sending a text message was enough? Blacklisting him directly?
Maybe, the Chief Editor could fire him with just one sentence. But you still had to follow the procedure, right? You didn't even give him a chance to explain? Blacklisting him directly?
Cheng Ming also felt that it was a little strange, so he said, "The editor-in-chief went to the capital. He left Shanghai on the same day as you. Now, Chief Editor Liang can take care of a lot of things in the news agency. He's already helped you with the human resources."
Lan Mu pondered for a moment and said, "I'm outside the news agency. Come out first."
After waiting for a while, Cheng Ming walked out. He had short hair and was dressed casually. He was 1.8 meters tall, but his looks couldn't be complimented. One could only say that he was patriotic.
Cheng Ming walked to Lan Mu and gave him a cigarette. The two of them stood outside the news agency and started smoking. Then, they started talking.
"Brother Mu, I met Chief Editor Liang when I came out. I asked him directly. He said that the news agency can terminate your contract unilaterally. There is no problem with doing business. He also asked me to inform you to take your things and go to the human resources department to get the termination form. "
"The contract? It's written in the contract that there's a force majeure! I almost lost my life and he wants to do business with me? "Lan Mu was annoyed that he had lost his job for no reason.
It wasn't that he couldn't bear to part with his job. With his ability, there were so many news agencies in Shanghai. It was the same for him to go to other news agencies.
It was just that Chief Editor Liang seemed to be targeting him on purpose. He was just angry.
Originally, it was fine to terminate the contract and part ways peacefully and happily. But why was it so disgusting for him?
Lan Mu and Cheng Ming walked into the news agency. Everyone in the news agency recognized them.
"Ah! You're back? I heard that you resigned? Did you find something good? "A colleague was rushing out of the news agency when he saw Lan Mu.
Lan Mu smiled bitterly and said, "How can there be anything good? I was fired. Alright, you do what you need to do. "
They walked to the General Affairs Department's warehouse. The warehouse manager saw him and immediately understood what was going on.
"Are you here to collect your things? Sign it. "
Lan Mu did not move. He said, "There's no rush to sign it. Let me see if there are any missing items."
The warehouse manager nodded and brought Lan Mu into the warehouse. He pointed to a box and said, "These are all yours. Your office staff helped you to pack them."
Lan Mu checked. Nothing was missing. Everything he had left in his office was here.
"I will come back to collect them later. I think I still have to go to the human resources department?"
"Don't. Hurry up and collect them."
Lan Mu shook his head and went to the human resources department with Cheng Ming.
When he reached the door, he saw a junior staff member inside. He immediately called out, "Zhang Qun!"
Then he signaled with his eyes. When Zhang Qun saw Lan Mu, he immediately understood and ran out of the office.
"Brother Mu, you're finally back! Where did you go? "
Lan Mu explained why he went missing again. Zhang Qun grinned and said, "You're awesome! So you were the one who exposed the poaching case! I thought that the newbie was really that good! "
But then he frowned and said, "Brother Mu, you're back too late. Old Liang has already settled everything. Unless the managing editor says anything, you're already resigned."
"Wait a minute … newbie? What's going on? How did you know about the Fu Zhou poaching case? Did you see it online? "Lan Mu asked.
"Fu Zhou poaching case. Who doesn't know about it? A giant wild boar as tall as a person. That was news a few days ago. Shanghai's news is exclusive to our newspaper. " Zhang Qun continued, "A few days ago, there was a newbie who brought the news on his first day. There were pictures to prove it. A giant wild boar as tall as a person. Its teeth were thicker than my arm."
Lan Mu glanced at Cheng Ming and said, "Shanghai already reported the Fu Zhou poaching case a few days ago?"
Cheng Ming said, "I'm not sure. I just came back."
Lan Mu suddenly smiled and nodded. "I know."
"Old Liang, you're really arrogant!"
Cheng Ming understood immediately. He said, "Brother Mu, did Old Liang take your news and dump you?"
Lan Mu sent him the MMS in the draft box on his phone. Cheng Ming and Zhang Qun saw the detailed content and the original pictures in the newspaper. They immediately understood.
"F * ck, is he crazy? How much is this news worth? Can't he just tell him before sending it? "
Lan Mu shook his head and said, "It's not about how much it's worth. That newbie is his relative, right?"
"Old Liang was very angry when I went missing for a few days. He already said in the text that he wanted to fire me."
"I think he only wanted to fire me normally. After all, I was absent from work for no reason. He doesn't have any relationship with me. It's normal for him to do business."
"But it's different with that newcomer. I sent this MMS to him before I called him. After that, I was blacklisted when I called him."
"I think he changed his mind when he saw the MMS. Then, he gave the news to his relative."
Cheng Ming and Zhang Qun said angrily, "Let's call the managing editor and show him the MMS on your phone."
Lan Mu shook his head again and said, "No, although I can solve this matter with the managing editor, I don't want to do that."
"To be honest, I want to do a free show. Now is the right time. Old Liang didn't have any objections to firing me. He had already thought about it. I just didn't expect him to fire me in such an ugly manner. "
"I plan to do the news alone. I won't have any contract with any media. When the time comes, I will provide material to whoever I want."
Cheng Ming heard this and suddenly said, "Good! I support you! Brother Mu, I'll resign too. "
Lan Mu laughed and said, "What the hell are you resigning for! I was fired! "
"Brother Mu, I've been suppressed by Boss Yang to the point that I can't stand out. I've long wanted to quit!" Cheng Ming said disdainfully.
Lan Mu put his arm around Cheng Ming's shoulder. The two of them looked at Zhang Qun.
Zhang Qun said with a wry smile, "Both of you are awesome. It wasn't easy for my family to let me work here … I …"
Lan Mu laughed and said, "I didn't ask you to resign! Work hard. In the future, I'll be relying on God to make a living. You should stay steady at the news agency. "
Seeing the two of them leave the news agency with their boxes, Zhang Qun pursed his lips and whispered, "Freedom? How can there be such freedom?"
