The Way To Escape the Scum

Chapter 48: (End of text on page 1)

    Liu Siye is the initiator of all these tragedies, but by no means the only perpetrator.

    For the optimist Cheng Xingguang, the harm caused by one person is far less painful than the harm caused by the group. She scolded in person for a while that day, and quickly forgot about this pervert.

    In a few days.

    "Anyway, scumbags have their own laws to make fair judgments, what am I afraid of?"

    Cheng Xingguang floated around Ling Xiao and said coquettishly, "Master Ling, what do you do next?"

    Ling Xiao: "...think about it for yourself. The police issued a police report this morning, confirming the secret behind all this. What about you? What should you do now?"

    Cheng Xingguang let out an "oh" and shrank reluctantly.

    "I don't want to make a video to explain this, and those people on the Internet won't believe it."

    "They were so happy when they scolded me, how could they change their views on me so quickly."

    Ling Xiao said solemnly: "Think carefully, what is the purpose of doing this?"

    "This is not only to give an explanation to ordinary people who do not know the truth in the public opinion environment, but more importantly, to show your attitude."

    "My attitude?" Cheng Xingguang murmured and repeated.

    "Do you still want to hide in a dark and smelly room by yourself, crying and masochistically reading private messages before I came? Do you want to continue wearing a mask and hat Can you only endure the humiliation of your neighbors when you go out? Do you have to live under the eyes of others all the time for the rest of your life, even though you have done nothing wrong?"

    Ling Xiao sighed, her tone softened again.

    "I hope you live a happy life, and I hope you can overcome many difficulties in the future. There will probably be many accidents in the future, maybe not so bad, but not because you don't want to meet That's right, it's gone."

     "Show your attitude and show those who only talk - Cheng Xingguang is a person with flesh and blood. No matter how you hurt her, you will pay a corresponding price for it."

    Cheng Xingguang could not help but feel the urge to cry.

    She used to live happily and had her own career friends, but they were all castles in the air that collapsed at the touch of a button.

    She knows very well that only after she has the edge can she move forward firmly and gain true freedom and happiness.

    As a model, shooting is Cheng Xingguang's instinctive reaction. But this time, she looked at the rudimentary camera in the house and had a lot of thoughts in her heart.

    What she is about to face is the most feared language storm.

    But she also knew that when she had the courage, no one could beat her.

    Ling Xiao sat beside her.

    "You say something, and I'll say something to the camera."

     "Don't be afraid, this is the stage for Cheng Xingguang alone."

    …

    [I am Cheng Xingguang. 】

      Everything happened so suddenly, I was just living an ordinary life like everyone else, and suddenly I encountered an unprecedented predicament... No, it was despair. 】

    [The cause of the incident must have been seen in the official police report. I have almost no interaction with this colleague surnamed Liu, who deliberately "punished" me just because I had a boyfriend. The so-called photos that have been widely circulated have been identified by the police and are completely forged by him. He logged into my account privately through the company's intranet and posted them. His motives were also very simple, nothing more than the decision to destroy me because I didn't fit his fantasies. 】

    [However, these are not my final intentions for making this video. 】

      They are obviously close people around me, but they still choose to abandon me even when they know how I live in the world. 】

    【Why? I think, on the one hand, it is probably that they have formed a habit of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. On the other hand, it is because they stand on the opposite side of public opinion and choose to follow the crowd to protect themselves. 】

    [This so-called public opinion is actually the speculation of bystanders who do not know the truth. Freedom of speech is indeed our fundamental right as human beings, but if freedom has no boundaries, every word can become an invisible knife to kill. 】

    【I am just an ordinary person, just like you, I work, rest, occasionally work overtime, and go out to play with friends on weekends. Since I have encountered such a thing, every one of you in front of the screen has such a probability of encountering a similar thing. 】

      Is it reasonable to exist? 】

    [Some people may say that it doesn't matter if someone says a few words casually. But when this situation falls on your head, as a victim, will you still persuade yourself like this? 】

    【I am fortunate to be able to find out the truth with the help of friends and the police, and be able to confirm my innocence. But I also know that there are many others who are not so lucky. They couldn't argue, and ended their lives in desperation in the carnival of countless people, and in the end they only ended up with a frivolous sentence of "psychological fragility". 】

      If not, at least have a basic conscience and don't be a perpetrator. Because you never know who will be next. 】

    【I still believe in the kindness from this world, and I believe that many people have the same expectations as me. 】

    …

    Ling Xiao smiled and watched Cheng Xingguang float slowly beside him, speaking seriously to the camera. At first, she was a little nervous and reserved, but later, the words from the bottom of her heart became smoother.

    She is actually a very brave and principled girl. After experiencing life and death, those things that have never been figured out before are also seen more deeply. She only needs a chance, and she only needs to give her a light hand, and she will be able to live strong and happy.

    Until the last sentence was completely repeated by Ling Xiao, Cheng Xingguang breathed a sigh of relief, looking for praise.

    "I feel like I just played really well! I don't know why, I didn't think about it so much before, but now some things can be said naturally."

    Ling Xiao praised: "Yeah. You also scolded a wave of companies, friends, and ex-boyfriends by the way. It's amazing."

    Cheng Xingguang smiled: "Mr. Ling taught well."

    This morning, as soon as the police notice was released, the broker came to him with a brand new contract, saying that the company's previous behavior was also a last resort. He also said that this matter can be sold with a wave of sympathy, and the popularity will be very high, and he also intimately asked if he wanted to contact the platform to hype it together.

    Cheng Xingguang originally planned to watch Master Ling score twice, but Ling Xiao said that she would solve it by herself, she was only responsible for doing it. Cheng Xingguang bit the bullet and went back, saying that he should go back with the contract and come to see her next time with the liquidated damages and the cancellation of the agreement.

    The ex-boyfriend A Peng was also very conscious of the crisis. He also followed his manager to apologize early in the morning, begging her not to release the recording of the parking lot at that time, and hinting that he could get back with her.

    Cheng Xingguang saw Ling Xiao hugging his chest and watching the play, so he simply asked his ex-boyfriend to get out with his manager.

    In fact, it is not so difficult to play by yourself. Although she didn't do well, the prickly Cheng Xingguang is also very good.

    Just a vague hunch. Just like when Ling Xiao asked himself to record a video, it always felt like the last training...

    She will be leaving her soon.

    Cheng Xingguang floated in front of Ling Xiao and asked for praise again: "Then post this video?"

    Ling Xiao smiled and said: "Unfortunately, I missed a little bit, I'll add it for you."

    In the past few days, with the support of Sun Sisi's friendship and financial resources, Ling Xiao and Cheng Xingguang also went to the notary office to fix the most abusive private letters with evidence. They went to the law firm and found lawyers who specialize in reputation infringement cases to handle these matters.

    The female lawyer is capable and dashing, reminding Ling Xiao of her friends from the previous world. She asked Ling Xiao, because the number of defendants was too large, did she insist on prosecuting them together?

    Ling Xiao nodded firmly. Sun Sisi coldly threw out a credit card.

    The female lawyer smiled: "I respect and admire your decision. I will investigate the real-name information from the platform as quickly as possible."

    "They hide behind the Internet, but it does not mean that they can act recklessly under false names. Morality does not allow it, nor does the law allow it."

    At this moment, facing the camera, Ling Xiao took out a stack of paper documents, all of which were indictments and notices of acceptance, stamped with the official seal of the court symbolizing fairness and justice. Some people's speech threats were already involved in crimes, and Ling Xiao flicked the police's receipt of the case.

     Those personal information will naturally be coded later, and the purpose of showing them is to show her determination.

    [In this matter, some people's remarks have exceeded the bottom line that human beings can imagine, and are even full of personal threats. I respect freedom of speech, but that's clearly not what should be tolerated. I'm sure some of them will be sincerely remorseful after posting this video, but there will be others who will continue to chase after me with abusive arrogance. 】

    【I just want to say - come on, I have nothing to fear. 】

    [These documents are my attitude. As for your results? The law will tell you the answer. 】

    Ling Xiao said this firmly.

    Just when she was about to turn off the record button, she saw Cheng Xingguang turn around in a circle, hesitantly asked herself in a low voice.

    "Can you add another sentence?"

    "Huh? Let's talk."

    Cheng Xingguang pondered for a moment, then asked regularly: "I will ask them to compensate for their mental damage, but I don't need the money, I want to use it for some other things..."

    "For example, after I leave the company, I want to become a public welfare blogger and help more people who have suffered from cyber violence like me speak up. The money is naturally used as start-up capital. It's a good new beginning, isn't it?"

    She waved her hands again and again: "Ah, I just said it casually, it's just an idea now."

    Ling Xiao listened patiently, then laughed sincerely.

    He looks very good.

    Ling Xiao clapped her palm lightly.

    "No, that's fine, better than I thought."

    After the pain, I still want to do the right thing - this unchanging heart, this may be the most precious treasure.

    Cheng Xingguang cheered happily.

    Ling Xiao looked at this scene quietly, smiling.

    "Do you remember the first two tasks you proposed?"

    After a long time, Cheng Xingguang heard Ling Xiao suddenly ask this.

    She was taken aback.

    [Mission 1: Escape the sulfuric acid incident and escape the fate of death]

    [Task 2: Clarify the truth, start over]

    Cheng Xingguang suddenly remembered something and trembled.

    No, not so fast.

    Are they going to part?

    She murmured: "But, I still have a lot of things for you-"

    "No," Ling Xiaowen replied, "I am very happy to see that you have started your life again."

    "I can only accompany you here. Or, it is enough to walk here."

    "The rest of the scenery along the way, the long journey, belongs to you alone."

    Cheng Xingguang felt something.

    After a moment of silence, she asked in a low voice:

    "Are you leaving?"

    "Hmm."

    The silent time and space, the clock is ticking. Vaguely, there was a sigh from the breeze.

    I don't know when, the body regained consciousness. Sunlight poured in warmly from the window, and she no longer felt a sharp sting.

    This also means that the person has left him.

    At that moment, Cheng Xingguang used all his strength and desperately shouted into the air:

    "Will I see you again?"

    She didn't cry, just stood quietly in the sun, looking forward to an answer.

    Although you know that, that person will never stop there. Because there are still so many people waiting for an opportunity to be rescued at different times and spaces—

    Just like myself.

    A voice came from far away.

    "You've had a fresh start, and we probably won't see each other this way again."

    The voice fell softly into my heart, warm and calm, and finally dissipated in the air little by little.

    As if this person never appeared.

    One session at a time.

    "Because there are countless hers in this world, she can still change her life."

    "Different faces, different encounters, different futures. But the same thing is that they were born free."

    There is no need for melancholy or sadness.

    Hope and courage last forever, and the fire left behind will never go out.

    The trek traveler is enough to travel alone through the long night until dawn.

    "When you pass by, maybe, you will meet me again."

    Because—

    "I am them."
