Too Bad I Take Things Seriously

Chapter 850: Chapter 308: An Anonymous Helpful User’s Advice

"Offer help?"

Seeing this serious private message, Zhou Shaohui blinked.

Feeling a bit of warmth inside.

There are still many good people in the world.

After knowing Zhou Xiaoqing’s situation, the forum users enthusiastically joined the discussion.

They also offered various suggestions.

Though most of them were quite useless...

"Thank you for your help."

He paused, first responding with a word of gratitude.

Simultaneously asking, "I wonder what situation you want to understand?"

Not long after.

This anonymous person sent a few more questions: "What is your cousin’s real age? Is she currently in elementary or junior high school? Has she ever had any mental issues or troubles in the past? How is her usual physical condition..."

The questions asked.

All revolved around Zhou Xiaoqing, ranging from age to physical condition, very detailed.

Zhou Shaohui looked at these questions in surprise, hesitated for a moment.

Still chose to truthfully inform the other party.

These questions...

Did not involve Zhou Xiaoqing’s personal privacy, just some routine questions.

He didn’t have to worry about the possibility of the other party being a fraud.

"Xiaoqing is usually very optimistic, her twelfth birthday is coming up in a month, she is still in sixth grade, has never heard of any mental problems before, she is very healthy, lively and kind, often feeds the stray cats in the district..."

Talking about this.

His mood inevitably became a bit heavy.

Such an optimistic and lively person...

Was driven to having suicidal thoughts by netizens’ attacks.

Cyberbullying is truly terrifying. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

Those verbal abuses...

Really can become the last straw that crushes a person, pushing them into the abyss.

Moreover...

The person being cyberbullied, can’t defend themselves, only helplessly let everyone throw dirt, accuse, condemn them.

"How about it? Do you... have a way to help Xiaoqing fight for justice?"

After informing the other party of the details, Zhou Shaohui asked again unwillingly.

Currently.

Zhou Xiaoqing’s parents are downcast and in great pain every day.

All relatives...

Are worried that Zhou Xiaoqing’s parents can’t handle this blow and might do something foolish.

After all...

They only have Zhou Xiaoqing as a daughter, usually treating her as a treasure.

A few minutes later.

Zhou Shaohui saw that the other party hadn’t replied for a long time, almost losing hope.

Suddenly received an anonymous private message from the other party: "There is indeed a way."

Looking at these five words.

His eyes lit up, immediately regaining energy.

"This matter was triggered by donations leading to cyberbullying, and cyberbullying... must not be delayed, find the perpetrator behind the network quickly, and let the victim’s family file defamation charges with the police first..."

Then.

In the private message, the anonymous person sent a series of messages.

Guiding him on what to do.

"But... defamation charges can’t lead to a long sentence for the other party, and can only hold a few people accountable."

Zhou Shaohui chuckled bitterly.

This is clearly...

Just a mild punishment for the perpetrator.

At the time of the cyberbullying...

Only people on that particular floor participated, those comments with higher likes weren’t more than a dozen.

At most, hold these dozen people accountable.

Others involved in the cyberbullying, can’t be fully held accountable.

However...

The next sentence of the private message made him excited.

"First file charges of defamation with the police to open a case, then... let the police investigate the specific facts, provide Zhou Xiaoqing’s hospital proof, disability proof, and upgrade the charges to the crime of provocation, then the police are obliged to bring all perpetrators of the cyberbullying back for investigation."

Although he didn’t quite understand.

But...

It seems that using this method, defamation charges and the crime of provocation can be linked.

The standard for filing defamation is a certain number of likes or shares; if not met, it doesn’t lead to criminal responsibility.

But provocation doesn’t require that.

Anyone involved in the incident...

Must bear corresponding criminal responsibility and undergo investigation.

As a loyal fan of Qin Mu.

He has watched many videos, still knows the legal connections in this.

"Alright, I’ll go find my uncle right now!"

Putting down the phone.

Zhou Shaohui took a deep breath, directly put on his jacket, and went out.

...

Meanwhile.

Jin City.

Mountain and Water Garden District.

Qin Mu put down the phone, his gaze flickering slightly.

The anonymous message just now...

Was sent by him to Zhou Shaohui.

After his careful consideration, he found a way to cover all participants in the cyberbullying.

Generally speaking.

Cyberbullying refers to the use of malicious remarks on the internet to cause attacks, insults, and other intangible harms to others.

Constituting a crime...

Usually involves defamation or insult.

Both of which require a certain level of dissemination to meet the standard for filing a case.

Simply scolding someone online...

Doesn’t constitute a crime and doesn’t require bearing criminal responsibility.

If regulations were really that strict, online trolls would have been extinct long ago.

As a result.

Those who just participated in criticizing Zhou Xiaoqing won’t be charged with defamation due to their few words.

In criminal law.

Defamation refers to intentionally fabricating and disseminating false facts to degrade someone’s character and harm their reputation, with serious circumstances.

Usually, only reaching a certain level of dissemination constitutes serious circumstances.

But...

He searched through all criminal law statutes and judicial interpretations in his mind overnight, finally discovered a breakthrough.
