Too Bad I Take Things Seriously
Chapter 749 - 270
The bank would take a three-percentage-point commission from Qin Mu’s compensation profit in this case. If Qin Mu himself could obtain compensation of thirty million, then the bank would draw a commission of 900,000! To put it in perspective, their bank loan of 100 million yielded only twelve million in interest per year. This investment loan earning 900,000 in such a short time was already considered a huge success! If Qin Mu had a few more cases like this, his performance for this quarter would be completed in excess!
"There are five more days; there shouldn’t be too many issues after that," Pei Xuanqing murmured, looking at the blank computer screen. Regarding Qin Mu, he trusted him completely and had never doubted Qin Mu’s abilities in litigation.
「Jin City. Nursing Home. Nine o’clock at night.」
After a long and crowded journey, Qin Mu finally returned to the facility with Zhang Qingyuan. Along the way, they had to navigate through throngs of people and then congested traffic. It took them two hours in total to finally return to the nursing home. Zhang Qingyuan was visibly exhausted; he went straight to his dormitory and fell asleep on the bed. Seeing this, Feng Cuihua hurriedly brought a basin of hot water to wash his face.
The other seniors were already waiting outside Zhang Qingyuan’s dormitory. They grabbed Zhang Qingyuan and excitedly inquired about the situation in the other courtrooms.
"Old Zhang, the nursing home was only broadcasting the Second Criminal Court. What about the other courtrooms?"
"Yeah, was there anything exciting in the afternoon? Were there any standout defendants?"
"We only saw Cheng Chuxiao in the morning; the others weren’t really impressive."
"Qin Mu, you really should prepare at least eight projectors for tomorrow, right? With 15,000 defendants, we can’t just watch one live broadcast."
As the crowd buzzed with gossip, they even started to complain about Qin Mu, claiming that this time it was a severe miscalculation on his part. They believed that out of 15,000 people, there must be some hidden talents. By watching the live broadcast of only one courtroom, they might miss some exciting parts. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Qin Mu was speechless.
In the end, he simply couldn’t withstand the seniors’ insistence. He had to agree to have eight live broadcast projections set up in the nursing home before he left tomorrow.
After interacting with the seniors for a while, he dragged his tired body and left the nursing home. He returned to the Mountain and Water Garden District.
After a quick wash-up, he had just lain on the couch when he received a message from Qing Lan.
"Up, I watched your live broadcast all day today. You were awesome!"
Seeing this message, Qin Mu smiled a little.
Towards people like Cheng Chuxiao, I detest their exploitation of uninformed netizens, which is why I pursue them relentlessly, giving them no chance. Otherwise, with Zhang Wei’s defense capabilities, they could have at least negotiated a decent outcome.
After a brief chat with Qing Lan, he took out his phone and logged into the Study Law Alliance Forum, which he hadn’t visited for a long time. During this period, he had been busy with the dog case and hadn’t browsed the forum much. But upon logging in, he was surprised to find the entire forum discussing this cyberbullying case. The popularity was unprecedentedly high.
"This is too insane, right? I already guessed what the next video would be about. I thought Up was figuring out how to send the dog owner to jail, but now Up is trying to send 15,000 people in!"
"The fate of those who offend Up? Newcomers to the forum, this is the fate of those who offend Up! No matter how many there are, he’ll send them all. With Up, numbers are never a problem!"
"Speaking of which, my cousin is currently outside the Jin City courthouse. I’d warned him before not to mess around online; I didn’t think it would actually happen to him."
"The old-timers in our forum, none of them got sent in by Up, right? If there are any, please deactivate your account and leave the forum!"
"Last time it was 3,000, this time it’s 15,000. Don’t tell me next time it’ll be 100,000?"
"You’re all overthinking it. The whole internet is going crazy right now. All the news outlets are reporting on this case. I guess there’s hardly anyone who doesn’t know Up now."
"HISS! Is Up about to become famous across the entire internet?!"
In the forum, his fans were exceptionally excited and incredibly active. The root cause of it all was that some user had shared a live broadcast link in the forum. Then, the forum exploded. These fans, having watched the live broadcast all day, knew about the lawsuit taking place in Jin City! They also knew the number of defendants: a staggering 15,000!
This even caused congestion outside the courthouse, and both parties’ lawyers were late for the trial. It was said that various factions in Jin City were alarmed by this crowd and were bracing themselves.
I... I’m famous across the entire internet now? Qin Mu thought, staring at the discussion among his fans, momentarily stunned.
Afterward, he clicked open the Little Station app. To his amazement, his original follower count of five million was climbing at a visibly rapid pace! Every refresh added several thousand more followers! Usually, his followers only increased when he posted videos. If he didn’t post, the number typically didn’t grow much.
What exactly is going on?
He frowned, then casually opened other apps. Upon opening them, he saw that the top recommended videos were all about him.
"The Largest Trial in History: Ten Thousand Defendants, Unprecedented!"
"This Man Sued the Entire Internet Again! A Look Back at Defendants Qin Mu Has Sued!"
"A Bloody Case Sparked by a Dog: 15,000 ’Compassionate’ Individuals Gather for an Unforgettable Night!"
