In order to prevent any mistakes, He Jing asked He Sui, “Fourth brother, is there any way to confirm who this IP belongs to?”
“Sure,” He Sui said confidently. This account has been registered for a long time, and there are very few posts and logins. I can help you check the IP address she logged in to last time. If it’s different from this address, it’s most likely her home address. You can take this address to your class and ask who lives nearby. The error won’t be more than five meters.”
He Jing nodded and sat down beside him, watching him make checks. After a while, a new IP address popped up. The address was Tranquil District on A City’s Cypress Road.
He Jing sent the address to Wu Yu and asked him, “Do you know who lives here?”
Wu Yu sent a puzzled emoji and asked, “It’s so late and Sister Jing is still awake. Isn’t this Zhang Man’s address? Sister Jing, how did you get it?”
Very good, the truth was out!
Because Xu Bi was unhappy that Cheng Yi had more votes than her and was looking for trouble with her, Cheng Yi’s best friend, Zhang Man, saw injustice and tried to help her, so she came up with a plan to attack her. She deliberately made such a post to prepare everyone. When the time came, everyone in Yin High School would support Cheng Yi, and she wouldn’t be able to clear her name.
Fortunately, she was alert and discovered it in advance. If the fake heiress was here, she would probably adopt a lofty attitude and ignore it. She might even hate Cheng Yi even more and say something in public, confirming the crime described in this post.
He Jing replied to Wu Yu with a ‘Thank you, it”s nothing’. Then, she browsed through all the posts under this account. Other than slandering her, half a year ago, she had also anonymously sullied the reputation of a relatively pretty classmate. She implied that she was an illegitimate daughter who was coquettish and had hooked up with a rich man.
In short, the content was very ugly.
He Jing took down all of this as evidence. Then, she opened the forum on her phone and found that the post about the real and fake heiress’s feud had been hyped up more than 2,000 times. Just a minute ago, another unfamiliar account had posted a new post, exposing her and Cheng Yi’s ‘bad blood’. She clicked on it and saw that the tone was roughly the same as the previous post owner, praising her openly and criticizing her secretly. There were more than 20 replies scolding her in a refresh.
He Jing looked at these comments that were scolding her and was extremely calm. She said, “Fourth brother, please help me check the IP address of this newly-registered account.”
He Sui said, “Okav.” He became more and more familiar with it and quicklv analyzed the IP address of this new account.
As expected, it was also Cypress Road’s Tranquil District.
Zhang Man was not in school at this time, so she could only post from home. With another layer of strong evidence, He Jing felt that there was no need to investigate further. She said to He Sui, “Thank you, Fourth brother. Go to sleep. I’m going as well.”
He Sui glanced at the screen full of abbreviations on the post and felt that something was amiss. He asked, “Who are this CY and HJ? How did they start fighting? And this candied haws avatar, why meddle in other people’s business? What does it have to do with her? Why did she post it? Why did you investigate her?”
The air in the living room suddenly froze.
He Jing lowered her eyes and said bluntly, “CY is Cheng Yi, HJ is me. The person with the candied haw avatar is Cheng Yi’s good friend.”
He Sui was dumbfounded.
“Wha…. What?”
