Chapter 500 Meng Liang’s Redemption
"Teacher Wang, the video you took out this time is really timely."
In the witness aisle.
After the trial, Meng Liang walked beside Wang Yujie. His dull face was full of smiles, and he looked like a different person:
"If there wasn't this video surveillance, maybe Ni Menglin would have gotten through."
Wang Yujie on the side heard this.
He also nodded with a little fear.
Although Ni Menglin admitted her slanderous behavior or not, her original behavior of disclosing the information about Meng Liang and Wang Yujie to Ding Xiaxia violated the criminal law, and she was bound to stay in the bureau for a while.
However, whether the candid filming behavior is true or not will have a non-negligible impact on the specific sentencing period and public opinion.
If Wang Yujie can't come up with this surveillance.
I'm afraid Ni Menglin will only be released after a year or two, and there will be a large number of people on the Internet who think she acted in "reasonable self-defense."
Of course.
If this is really the case, then the trial of the 4.23 incident will definitely not be placed so high - it is precisely because the Supreme Court already knew the existence of this surveillance video in advance that it can rest assured that the 4.23 Internet violence case Put it in the first place.
But now that the truth from the surveillance video has been revealed, most of the pressure on Wang Yujie's heart has finally been relieved.
Then Wang Yujie glanced at Meng Liang beside her and asked him as she walked:
"Xiao Meng, what are you going to do next?"
"Next?"
Meng Liang was startled for a moment, then subconsciously looked at his rough hands.
He touched his thumb on the callus of his index finger joint, shook his head and said:
"Of course I will go home and continue repairing the water pipes. What else can I do in this situation? - At most, I can take my dad to Tiananmen Square before I go home and watch the flag raising."
"He has lived for almost fifty years and has never seen the flag raising in Tiananmen Square."
After saying this, Meng Liang suddenly realized something, his pupils shrank, he turned his head and said to Wang Yujie worriedly:
"Teacher Wang, my situation is easy to say. The outcome of the trial will not affect my store's business, but what should you do?"
Until then.
Only then did Meng Liang realize something:
Although Wang Yujie's evidence was extremely solid, Ni Menglin lost the possibility of a comeback.
But her behavior is undoubtedly a standard stabbing in the back for the school
Although Wang Yujie is now neglected at work, her working relationship still belongs to the school and she is regarded as a faculty member within the system.
And now that Wang Yujie has shown such an explosive video, it is impossible for the school not to react.
Or to put it bluntly.
It was impossible to keep her in school, even in a remote campus.
In this way.
Wang Yujie's income, medical and social security problems may all be serious.
But what surprised Meng Liang was that Wang Yujie's expression was still calm, as if the person who was about to lose her job was not herself.
She gently pushed a strand of hair behind her ear and said with a faint smile:
"Xiao Meng, to tell you the truth, I actually handed in my resignation report before today's court hearing."
“Although I haven’t saved much money over the years, I still have enough food and clothing in the short term.”
"If nothing else happens, it will take at least one or two months for me to find a job - I am a normal graduate with a master's degree, and the school will not be able to process my student record no matter what."
< br>
"Of course, if I really can't find a suitable job, I plan to go back to my hometown to find a job and spend time with my parents. Although at my age, I will probably be urged to get married every day when I go home."
Wang Yujie's tone sounded relaxed.
It seemed as if what she left was not her workplace, but a room.
cage.
Suddenly.
Meng Liang's mind flashed to the scene in the movie "The Shawshank Redemption" in which the protagonist Andy spreads his hands to embrace the sky in the rain when he escapes from Shawshank Prison.
For Wang Yujie. No, it should be said that for Wang Yujie and Meng Liang.
That school is indeed their Shawshank prison.
The Supreme Court's witness passage is not very long, only about thirty or forty meters including the corners.
So after walking for a while, Meng Liang saw the figure of his father, Meng Dongguo, at the end of the passage.
"Dad!"
When the two sides were still seven or eight meters apart, Meng Liang quickened his pace, ran to Meng Dongguo's side, and hugged his father hard:
"Dad, I am innocent!"
Just five words.
But it contains indescribable bitterness.
Even though he had already shed tears once at the court hearing, Meng Dongguo, a tall man of 1.8 meters, still couldn't control himself and his eyes were red again.
However, the actions of their father and son were not particularly eye-catching. At this time, many people around them were hugging each other and crying.
After all, there were a lot of witnesses coming to the trial today, and there was only one witness passage. When leaving the court, there was at most a gap between the front and back feet.
And people like Meng Liang are called "witnesses", but who is actually not a victim related to the case?
Now that the injustice has been overturned, naturally few people can remain calm.
After a while.
Meng Dongguo patted Meng Liang's back hard and looked at Wang Yujie aside, with a hint of gratitude on his face:
"Teacher Xiao Wang, we meet again."
Wang Yujie also smiled and nodded at Meng Dongguo, took out a pack of tissues from her body and handed it to him:
"Yes, it will be five years soon. Mr. Meng, you seem to have changed little compared to five years ago."
Meng Dongguo took the tissue and thanked him, waved his hand and said:
"I have been working since I was a teenager. When I was thirty, I looked almost as if I was fifty. When I walked out, people would ask me if I was a programmer."
"So now that I am fifty, nothing has changed. I guess I will still look like this in five years."
Finished.
Meng Dongguo looked at Wang Yujie carefully for a while, with a hint of heartache in his eyes:
"It's you, Teacher Wang. In the past five years, you have been tired."
After the 4.23 incident broke out that year.
Meng Dongguo and his wife first suffered an unprovoked attack on the Internet. Without knowing anything about it, there were a bunch of wreaths at the door of their home the next day.
After he finally figured out the cause and effect, he received another opinion letter regarding Meng Liang's expulsion from school.
Of course.
The opinion letter at that time did not state that he would be expelled from school, but that he would be detained for probation, so Meng Dongguo immediately bought a ticket and went to the school to understand the situation.
At that time, Meng Liang met Wang Yujie once in the school leadership office.
At that time, Wang Yujie was not as haggard as she is now, and her appearance was beautiful and dignified. In Meng Dongguo's eyes, this 'Teacher Xiao Wang' could compete with celebrities.
In addition, she has been insisting that Meng Liang did not secretly photograph Ni Menglin, so Meng Dongguo did have a deep impression on Wang Yujie.
Unexpectedly, five years have passed.
Meng Dongguo and Wang Yujie met again. The other party was as haggard as a vegetable farmer, with no trace of his stunning appearance.
If Wang Yujie hadn't had really good facial features, Meng Dongguo would have almost not recognized her identity.
However, Wang Yujie has long been accustomed to this. When she returned to the main campus to submit her resignation report a few days ago, she met many of her former colleagues, and almost everyone lamented her change.
Therefore, Wang Yujie acted very calmly when faced with Meng Dongguo's emotion.
Then Meng Dongguo looked around and found that there was no one else following Wang Yujie, so he asked Wang Yujie:
"Teacher Wang, are you here alone today?"
Wang Yujie hummed, picked up her phone and shook it at him:
"Well, my dad broke his ankle last month, and my mom was taking care of him at home, so I didn't let them come over."
"Anyway, today's court hearing will be broadcast live to the public, and they can also see the live footage in Haidai Province."
Only then did Meng Dongguo notice.
On the screen of Wang Yujie's mobile phone, a WeChat dialog box with the note "Dad" was displayed.
"So that's how it is"
Meng Dongguo nodded thoughtfully, then patted Meng Liang on the shoulder, and invited Wang Yujie:
"In that case, Teacher Wang, let's find a small restaurant and have a casual meal together."
"Firstly, it gives me and Xiao Meng a chance to thank you for your help. Secondly, you and Xiao Meng have been wronged. We should celebrate both emotionally and rationally. What do you think?"
Wang Yujie thought for a moment and said to Meng Dongguo:
"Mr. Meng, please don't say thank you. There is no evidence that I helped anyone in this matter. I am just proving myself."
"But your second point makes sense. If you don't mind, can I arrange a place?"
Meng Dongguo nodded seriously when he saw this:
"Okay!"
After reaching your intention.
The three of them quietly left the witness passage, followed the sign and went down to the first floor, preparing to leave through the side door of the trial building.
As a result, I just exited the revolving door on the side.
Meng Liang and the others heard a burst of noisy voices.
Meng Liang took advantage of the situation and looked around.
At this moment, twenty or thirty reporters were gathered at the foot of the steps not far away, divided into several clusters around several men and women.
Meng Liang had a vague impression that these men and women seemed to be witnesses who had appeared in court.
It's obvious.
This is what the media is looking for.
Of course.
Most of these media outlets are front-line organizations, so they did not crowd around to ask questions like reporters from entertainment magazines, but formed an orderly circle.
Judging from the expressions of the witnesses being interviewed.
Most of them were interviewed voluntarily.
However, Meng Dongguo didn't like this kind of exposure, so he pulled his son's clothes and wanted to leave here as soon as possible.
It's a pity that Meng Dongguo has never experienced this after all, and he was stunned for a long time.
So before he made a move, several reporters noticed them first and their eyes lit up.
Although several cases in this court hearing are very popular, if ranked by representativeness, the 4.23 Internet violence case is obviously at the forefront.
Then quickly.
A long-legged male reporter quickly walked up to Meng Liang and the others. He first showed them his press credentials and then said to Meng Liang:
"Hello, are you Meng Liang?"
"Let me introduce myself. I am He Huai, a reporter from CCTV. This is my cameraman partner."
"Classmate Meng Liang, can I take a few minutes of your time to conduct a simple interview?"
Meng Dongguo originally wanted to pull his son and Wang Yujie away from the scene directly, but after hearing the name of He Huai's unit, his movements suddenly stopped.
CCTV.
For a person of his age, the influence of this organization is undoubtedly quite strong, and the image in his mind is also extremely high.
So he couldn't help but loosen his fingers holding the corner of Meng Liang's clothes, and at the same time gently poked his son's arm.
The meaning is obvious:
Since it’s an interview with CCTV, how about a few simple answers?
If CCTV could broadcast the footage, the publicity effect of refuting the rumors would undoubtedly be much higher - after all, many people do not watch the live broadcast.
Meng Liang obviously realized this, so although he still had a sullen face, he nodded slightly:
"Okay."
Meng Liang's answer seemed to make He Huai very happy. He first smiled kindly at Meng Liang and then asked:
"Meng Liang, are you satisfied with the outcome of this trial?"
Meng Liang nodded vigorously:
"Satisfied, very satisfied!"
"Then how are you feeling at this time?"
"I'm very excited. I'm grateful to the country and the Supreme Court for giving me a chance to prove my innocence!"
He Huai first asked a few more formulaic questions, and after Meng Liang finished answering, he asked again:
"So, classmate Meng Liang, what do you want to say about the notice that your xx University released three hours ago?"
Meng Liang was stunned when he heard this:
"Notification?"
"."
Looking at the confused Meng Liang, He Huai was also a little surprised:
"Why, classmate Meng Liang, don't you know?"
Then he thought for a moment, pointed at Meng Liang’s mobile phone and said:
"Meng Liang, you can log on to the official Weibo of your original school. If not, you can also log on to the homepage of the official website and you will see the notice."
Seeing this, Meng Liang quickly took out his phone and clicked on the screen.
He has not installed Weibo in the past few years. After all, this was the main battlefield of his original crusade. He hates Weibo even more than the public toilets in his hometown.
However, after Wang Li informed him that the country was prepared to reverse his case, he reinstalled the software.
Originally, Meng Liang was still thinking about which keys to press for the pinyin of the school. However, as soon as he entered Weibo, he saw a hot search topic:
[XX University Announcement].
So he clicked in immediately.
The top account on the hot search square is the official WeChat account of Meng Liang School, and the dynamic content is a notice stamped on a white background:
[After investigation and verification, Ge Yiqing, the executive vice president of our school, committed serious dereliction of duty, distortion, and breach of trust in the 4.23 cyber violence incident on April 23, 2018. The board of directors of our school decided to remove Ge Yiqing from his position on campus. Cancel his teaching and enrollment rights, and cooperate with superior departments to conduct in-depth investigations. We will never tolerate it! At the same time, I would like to express my deep apologies to the slandered classmate Meng Liang and teacher Wang Yujie. Our school will immediately set up an inspection committee for the 4.23 incident to try our best to make up for the losses of the victims! 】
The content of this report was not long, but it shocked Meng Liang.
Ge Yiqing.
This is also a name that Meng Liang cannot forget.
When the April 23 incident first broke out, many leaders in the school hoped to formally refute the rumors.
For example, Meng Liang's hospital leaders and Wang Yujie's mentors are like this.
This group is mainly the middle-level leaders of the school, who have relatively much contact with students, and will consider the impact on students when dealing with problems.
As a result, Ge Yiqing waved his hand gently at the discussion meeting, knocking back all these opinions, while also completely pushing Meng Liang and Wang Yujie into the abyss.
Although Ge Yiqing is not the principal of Meng Liang School, he is a senior scholar in the cultural circle and can be called a giant.
Even Meng Liang and Wang Yujie never expected Ge Yiqing to be punished.
The result was unexpected.
Ge Yiqing was actually dismissed?
To know.
A person with a position like Ge Yiqing cannot be expelled by the school alone. A decision must be made by the department directly under him.
Therefore, removal from office and cancellation of teaching and enrollment rights are already the highest punishments at the school level.
At the same time, based on the description of "serious dereliction of duty, distortion, and breach of trust", it is not difficult to see that Ge Yiqing's ending must not be as simple as being dismissed from office.
The more severe punishment is not not issued, but because the higher authorities need time to argue - after all, the trial has just ended.
Think of this.
Meng Liang suddenly found that the screen of his mobile phone was a bit dark, and the brightness setting seemed not high enough.
But it was still very bright in the morning.
Suddenly.
Meng Liang realized something and looked up at the sky.
I only see this moment.
The gloomy sky in the early morning has disappeared without knowing when, the clouds in the sky have dispersed, and thousands of golden and silver strands are falling from the sky
More than ten minutes later.
Meng Liang, Meng Dongguo and Wang Yujie said goodbye to He Huai and left the court building.
Ge Yiqing's punishment was so unexpected that Wang Yujie even hummed a song.
But I just walked for a few minutes.
Meng Liang's cell phone suddenly rang.
"Seeking clarity in everything, it's hard to change your nature. I can give you justice, so why not~~"
Meng Liang took out his cell phone and took a look and found that the call was from an unknown number and that it belonged to Luzhou.
Luzhou
I shouldn’t have any acquaintances there, right?
Could it be that someone was dissatisfied with Ni Menglin's verdict and called him to insult him? ——Although Meng Liang changed his mobile phone number, it is no secret to those who have the ability to open the box.
Although there are not as many people calling to harass me in recent years as before, I still encounter a few occasionally.
If it were before today, Meng Liang would definitely hang up the phone immediately.
But today, to be precise, it is after the trial
Meng Liang took a deep breath and pressed the call button:
"Hello, who's there?"
Finished.
Meng Liang was prepared to be greeted by his family and ready to tell the other party that the country had cleared his name.
But what surprised him was.
There was no Zaan dialect coming from the other side of the microphone, but a rather young male voice spoke:
"Hello, are you classmate Meng Liang?"
Don't know why.
When he heard this voice, Meng Liang felt a vague sense of familiarity in his heart, as if he had heard the other party speaking somewhere.
So he stopped and asked:
"Yes, it's me. Who are you?"
"It seems I have found the right person."
There was a chuckle from the other person on the phone, and then he said:
"Meng Liang, please introduce yourself. My name is Xu Yun. I come from the University of Science and Technology of China. I am known as Thirty Thousand Times a Day."
"That is, the person sitting next to you in the victim's seat during the previous trial - as for your number, prosecutor Chen Ling gave me your number."
"Xu Yun?"
Meng Liang was startled subconsciously. After a few seconds, his breathing suddenly became faster:
"Ah? Are you Dr. Xu?!"
Xu Yun, who was on the other end of the phone, smiled again:
"Uh, it's okay if you call me that, classmate Meng Liang, are you still in the trial building now?"
Although he knew that Xu Yun could not see his movements, Meng Liang still shook his head:
"My father, Teacher Wang, and I have already left the trial court. Dr. Xu, do you have anything to do with me? I can rush back immediately if necessary."
Meng Liang's tone was a little excited, and he was full of goodwill toward Xu Yun.
Although Xu Yun did not directly help him prove his innocence.
But Wang Li from the Information Security Department once briefly told him that Xu Yun was the most critical person in the whole matter.
If Xu Yun hadn't caught a large wave of fish, it would have been difficult to obtain a lot of evidence even if the state actively investigated.
Seeing that Meng Liang wanted to rush back to the trial building, Xu Yun quickly refused:
"There's no need to come back, classmate Meng Liang. I'm mainly looking for you because I want to talk to you about something."
Meng Liang quickly made a gesture of all ears:
"You said."
The person on the phone, Xu Yun, paused and said:
"Um, classmate Meng Liang, have you ever thought about going back to school to continue your studies?"
"Although it has been five years since you left school, and a lot of knowledge may have been forgotten long ago, I think there are some things you can try."
"Of course, the school I'm talking about doesn't mean your original university, but the University of Science and Technology of China."
Note:
Forgot to ask, what do you think of this new cover?
Again:
The writer's words are free, no matter how long they are, they are free! ! !
He said that he didn’t make an appointment for a gastroscopy yesterday. One reason was that there were too many people doing gastroscopy, and the other reason was that if you go through the hospitalization procedures and then do a gastroscopy, you can be reimbursed. The difference is several hundred yuan,
So I’m going to do it after being admitted to hospital on Wednesday - this kind of hospitalization doesn’t require me to stay in the hospital, so I can code normally.
In addition, many students believe that "Yongle Dadian" should be written before opening a copy. I discussed it with the editor and the editor also felt that this should be the case.
It has been decided that "Yongle Dadian" should be written before starting, so that everyone will not be stuck. (This should not be considered empty talk, after all, the amount of updates is still very sufficient)
