"Every time I think about my 3,000 yuan a month salary and this wealth gap, Iām the one who gets averaged out every year!"
"..."
In the live broadcast room, barrages of comments flooded in. After watching the video, the reactions from the viewers were even more exaggerated than Qing Lanās. Especially the 160 million yuan mentioned in the video, which really made many viewers explode with anger. The current wealth gap has become a chasm. The rich are getting richer, while the poor are getting poorer. The so-called "first to get rich will help others get rich" is completely empty talk. Those who became rich first... instead think up ways to consolidate their own wealth and exploit ordinary people, which has led to this situation. Take this case, for example. Ordinary people are afraid to even get sick; a single illness can lead to financial ruin, leaving them with no chance to "become rich."
"This lawyer... is quite something too," Qing Lan remarked, a curious expression on her face as she watched the latter half of the video.
If I remember correctly... this is the only case Iāve seen where the lawyer ended up going in too.
He was defending a client, yet he managed to land himself in jailāa first of its kind.
"Here, I just want to remind everyone: learn the law, understand the law, and most importantly, abide by the law. Never, for personal gain, disregard judicial principles, as you will only end up destroying yourself by playing with fire," Qin Mu stood in the video, solemnly issuing a warning at the end.
Then, the video abruptly ended.
Qing Lan couldnāt help but blink.
That last sentence felt strange... as if it were specifically warning certain people.
"Could it be... he has discovered the Study Law Alliance Forum too?" she swallowed nervously, muttering to herself.
The Study Law Alliance Forum was divided into three main sections. The other two sections were fine, but in the āLaw Study Zoneā... those users were always researching legal statutes, and the angles they proposed were incredibly peculiar.
Indeed, thatās extremely dangerous.
Thinking of this, she couldnāt help but take out her phone and log into the Study Law Alliance Forum.
Sure enough, the forum was in an uproar again because of Qin Muās video. A single stone had stirred a thousand ripples. All the users were discussing this case. In the āLaw Study Zone,ā one post after another emerged.
"Being a lawyer is so dangerous? After watching the UPās video, I was actually thinking of applying to law school."
"I have a question: if this pharmacy owner hadnāt laundered money, would his maximum sentence really only be fifteen years?"
"Iāve learned another criminal tip! Next time, Iāll only commit a single offenseāthat saves five years right there!"
"Crime? Not a chance. Once I learn all of the UPās skills, even if I commit a crime, you wonāt catch me. And even if you do catch me, I wonāt be convicted!"
"..."
The statements in each post were extremely dangerous, all focused on researching aspects of illegal and criminal activities.
It seems... these people have no idea that Qin Mu has already discovered them.
ćThe next day.ć
Mountain and Water Garden District. Early morning.
After getting up and washing up, Qin Mu immediately checked the videoās view count. It was astonishing. The comment section, as always, had not a single comment discussing the videoās content. With no other choice, he opened the Study Law Alliance Forum to see how his fans were *really* doing.
But the results... showed him the "arrogant comments" from users in the āLaw Study Zone.ā His warning in the video had had no effect whatsoever. These users... clearly hadnāt taken his words to heart at all. Some even planned to learn all his skills and then carry out perfect crimes.
These people...
he chuckled bitterly, shaking his head.
This might just be boasting online. But... it could also represent the genuine thoughts in these usersā heartsāleveraging their understanding of the law to unleash their repressed and restrained darker sides. Many people harbor such fantasies of being an outlaw.
It shouldnāt come to that, though.
Afterwards, Qin Mu put away his phone and headed out to the nursing home.
At nine oāclock sharp, he arrived on time. He was informed once again... that he had won the Employee of the Month award. The reason this time was even more absurd: they said it was because he always entered the nursing home right foot first, which supposedly demonstrated the "seeing things through" quality of an excellent employee. The nursing homeās senior management this time... didnāt even care about losing face; they practically forced the award on him.
"Xiao Qin, did you hear? Thereās been another major upheaval in Jin City!" Zhang Qingyuan and a few others said, rushing over to him that morning, visibly excited.
"What happened?" Qin Mu asked, momentarily stunned.
"I heard that Liu Qiao confessed to many secrets of the pharmaceutical industry while in prison, implicating many people!"
"Yes, besides the hospitals mentioned before, another seven or eight hospitals and pharmaceutical factories have been investigated."
"Those drug supply chains, I hear, are now completely severed."
"This Liu Qiao probably decided to go for broke, planning to drag others down with him before he dies."
"..."
Zhang Qingyuan and the others told him everything they knew.
It turned out that since Liu Qiao had been incarcerated, within just one day, the pharmaceutical industry in Jin City had experienced another major shock. This was especially true for the pharmaceutical manufacturing link in the chain. Numerous black-market operations were uncovered. The money-laundering network connected to Liu Qiao reportedly implicated hundreds of people. The current prosecutorial and police authorities were almost driven mad. Suddenly faced with such a massive "caseload," they were all scrambling to investigate, attempting to quickly uncover these criminal acts and apprehend the perpetrators.
