Chapter 505: Chapter 209: Real-Name Reporting: The Crime of Having a Huge Unidentified Source of Property!_2

It was just too cheap.

"When reporting," he said, "it’s best to do so using your real name."

Qin Mu nodded and continued, "And the most effective way to report is directly to the procuratorate."

Reporting such crimes... While there are many channels for filing reports, such as direct supervisory authorities or public security organs, the procuratorate remains the most effective. This is because other authorities, after accepting a report, are required to submit it to the procuratorate. This multi-layered feedback process can cause delays.

To avoid unnecessary complications and delays... The best method is to report directly to the procuratorate.

Real-name reporting is the optimal approach for such cases. The distinction between real-name and anonymous reporting might seem merely about concealing identity, but in reality, their effectiveness is worlds apart.

The procuratorate receives a vast number of anonymous tips daily, but very few are actually pursued. On one hand, anonymous reports carry a high risk of being false accusations or fabricated claims. If every anonymous tip were thoroughly investigated, judicial resources would be squandered on fruitless endeavors. On the other hand, anonymous reports offer no mechanism for follow-up or feedback. Real-name whistleblowers, however, personally assume legal risks and the threat of retaliation, which necessitates that their reports be taken seriously.

Furthermore, while some worry about potential leaks with real-name reporting, this concern is largely unfounded. Regarding this, uncovering a real-name whistleblower’s information is nearly impossible. According to the Supreme People’s Court’s regulations on protecting citizens’ reporting rights, real-name whistleblowers are interviewed in designated locations by assigned personnel. Unauthorized individuals are prohibited from being present, eavesdropping, or questioning. The handling of whistleblower letters—including their reception, opening, registration, transfer, and storage—and the management of in-person or telephone reports—including reception, answering, note-taking, and audio recording—all require dedicated personnel and are subject to regular accountability checks. Furthermore, no copies are made of any real-name whistleblowing materials. With these measures in place, a real-name whistleblower will almost certainly not be exposed unless they choose to reveal themselves.

"Let’s get the report materials ready first. I’ll go to the procuratorate tomorrow."

Finally, Qin Mu and Wang Dachui began discussing the details of the report in the office. "Materials" was perhaps too generous a term; in truth, they were more like unsubstantiated leads. The main point was to report Han Dongting for purchasing several properties during his time in office.

「The next day.」

In the nursing home.

"Old Su, there’s a case tomorrow. We’re going to the courthouse to observe. Want to come?" Zhang Qingyuan and the others were sitting in the courtyard, chatting idly, and extended the invitation to Su Yongnian and other elderly residents.

These elderly individuals were newcomers to the nursing home and hadn’t attended a court hearing before.

"What kind of case is it?" Su Yongnian and the others asked, their curiosity piqued.

"Is it as exciting as Meng Lei’s case?"

"Is it another debt case? How much money was involved?"

"Can we also go to the courthouse to observe the trial?"

"..."

After witnessing Meng Lei’s case, the newcomers to the nursing home had also developed an interest in attending court hearings. Meng Lei’s case had been as gripping as a television drama.

"It’s just a sentencing for a drunk driving case. I doubt it’ll be very exciting," Zhang Qingyuan said honestly after a moment’s thought. "For a case to be truly captivating, Xiao Qin needs to be involved. The defendants who go up against him always meet a particularly miserable fate."

His tone conveyed deep admiration for Qin Mu. Past cases had repeatedly demonstrated the devastating impact of Qin Mu’s involvement. According to Old Song, in their Chen Family Village, the town police station had even set up two guard posts, one at each end of the village, to prevent similar crimes from recurring. The last time Qin Mu visited Chen Family Village, he turned everything upside down and caused utter chaos. Now, it was rare to see able-bodied young men or young women in the village; most of the remaining residents were elderly or children.

"Huh? Why isn’t Xiao Qin here today?" During their chat, Li Weiguo suddenly realized Qin Mu had taken leave again and asked in surprise, "He hasn’t gone to the hospital again because of Old Su’s case, has he?"

At the mention of this, everyone’s spirits seemed to dampen. They were all infuriated that Su Yongnian had been swindled out of 1,200 yuan. But the other party was simply too cunning, colluding so blatantly. Qin Mu had visited the hospital twice but apparently hadn’t found a solution.

"Maybe... I should just forget about the 1,200 yuan. Tell Xiao Qin to drop it," Su Yongnian said after some thought, clearly wanting to swallow his anger and let the matter go.

He had barely finished speaking when Zhang Qingyuan and the others exchanged glances and burst out laughing.

"Old Su, you’re new here, so you don’t know Xiao Qin’s temperament," Zhang Qingyuan said. "Once he sets his mind on something, he doesn’t back down."

"Exactly! Never mind being conned out of 1,200 yuan; even if it were just one yuan, he’d make sure the culprits ended up behind bars."

"Otherwise, I doubt he’d be able to sleep at night."

"Honestly, after being around Xiao Qin for so long, I wouldn’t just take things lying down anymore either. Why should we be the ones to suffer a loss?"

"..."

Zhang Qingyuan, Li Weiguo, Song Tiancheng, and the others spoke with great earnestness. Under Qin Mu’s influence, they had unknowingly changed. Previously, if they suffered a small loss, they might have considered it a misfortune to be overlooked, turning a blind eye and letting it pass.

But now... Why should I be the one to take the loss?

Su Yongnian looked at Zhang Qingyuan and the others, suddenly feeling quite moved. Like many people, he was the type to live a quiet, unremarkable life, careful not to bother anyone and never proactively causing trouble. Due to this disposition, he had often suffered unfair losses.

But after getting to know Qin Mu, Zhang Qingyuan, and the others, he suddenly realized... Perhaps living life differently wouldn’t be so bad after all.

Take this incident, for example. If Qin Mu, Zhang Qingyuan, and the others hadn’t insisted on helping him seek justice, he would have just turned a blind eye and let it go.
