Chapter 583: The Police Are Here
"What’s happening? Isn’t that Senior Brother Ji?"
"Why did he bring the police over here? Is that Li Mei?"
...
Hearing the commotion from this side, many people turned to look over.
Li Mei stood frozen on the spot, looking at the three people in front of her, a trace of unease rising in her heart.
"Hello, Li Mei, we suspect you are involved in a defamation incident. Please come with us to the police station."
The leading man showed his credentials, his face serious as he spoke.
"What defamation incident? I don’t know what you’re talking about."
Li Mei’s mind went blank with a buzzing sound, but she quickly regained her composure. She knew if she stuck to her denial, they wouldn’t be able to do anything to her!
"Li Mei, resisting will lead to severe consequences. If you confess now, you may receive leniency."
"Why should I confess to something I haven’t done?"
"Oh? Then what’s this?"
Ji Changqing stood right beside her. Upon encountering the police, she was too nervous to exit the comment screen, and inadvertently sent the comment with a tremble of her hand.
[Meizi Huang Shiyu: Is this how the school is fair, just, and open? I think they brazenly took the money from the capital! Who would use their money for scholarships?]
"You’re invading someone’s privacy!"
Li Mei instinctively tried to hide her phone, but it was too late; everyone had seen it.
Ji Changqing was expressionless, "There are surveillance cameras here; you can check them anytime. You clearly showed it to us, so we’re not invading anything."
"According to our investigation, Meizi Huang Shiyu is your ID, along with La Mei, One Cut Spring Mark Full Branch, Mu Meimei... all these IDs are yours."
"So what if these IDs are mine? There are countless people commenting online, why target only me?"
Li Mei’s palms were immediately sweaty upon hearing the IDs, but she still gritted her teeth and retorted.
Don’t falter!
There are people online cursing far worse than she did!
The leading man glanced at the woman behind him, who then took a file out of her bag.
"Li Mei, we found ’The Great Gossip Fisherman,’ and according to his information, someone sold him a piece of data. This is the transaction record, and this is your account, right?"
As the woman’s voice fell, a wave of murmurs rose around them.
"My God, it was Li Mei who leaked it!"
"I said those photos were either from professional paparazzi or taken by classmates who could access Chi Youyou!"
"No way, Li Mei just claimed she knew nothing about this and even stood beside Chi Youyou!"
"No, she was deliberately misleading us! Remember she said she saw Chi Youyou in M Country being taken away by a police car, and she only half explained it!"
...
Li Mei stood on the spot, surrounded by the discussions of her classmates. She swallowed nervously, her hand gripping the phone trembling uncontrollably.
"Li Mei, due to your defamation and slander, the school’s reputation and Chi Youyou’s name have suffered significant damages. Please come with us."
"I just provided a piece of information; it’s not that serious!"
Li Mei still didn’t believe she did anything wrong, shouting angrily, "You are the police, yet you don’t go after a liar like Chi Youyou, instead helping the capital target innocent civilians like us! We are the real victims here!"
