"Ling Zhi, the first thing I called you to do today is to apologize to you."
"To be honest, I did suspect that the anonymous letter on the Internet was sent by you. In this regard, I was careless."
"As for Luopu, he doesn't come to the laboratory very often. He has no scientific research output and failed the mid-term assessment. It is a matter of course that he will not be allowed to participate in the defense."
"But he spread rumors on the Internet because of this, saying that I don't care about your scientific research and let you delay your graduation. That is pure nonsense."
"I have sent many papers to Luopu, and I have taken the initiative to discuss it with him many times. And what about him? How many times has he taken the initiative to discuss it with me? So his behavior is really very bad!"
"Tell me, Ling Zhi, do I usually treat you the way he said?"
"No, you treat us very well."
"So..."
Director Wang began his long speech again.
Although Luopu was not the instigator of this incident, he may have been instigated by the anger of his roommates. After all, he usually looks very cowardly when reporting in group meetings, and does not seem like someone who can do such an outrageous thing.
The person who acts.
But no matter what, his actions angered Director Wang. Even if Director Wang usually has a good temper, he still seemed very excited when he encountered something like this that was very related to his own interests.
So Director Wang vented his dissatisfaction with Luo Pu on the side, which made Ling Zhi sitting aside have the illusion that Director Wang was talking about himself.
After Wang Haibo calmed down a little, he looked at Ling Zhi, who was expressionless, and came back to his senses:
"I just made a mistake, don't worry about it. I didn't come to you today to tell you this. I just wanted to ask you, was the article that pointed out the rumor maker on the Internet a few days ago, not by you?"
"Oh, that article, no, I've been busy reading papers these days, what's wrong?"
Wang Haibo looked into Ling Zhi's eyes, trying to see something from his eyes, but he was destined to be disappointed.
He could feel that since Ling Zhi experienced the secret room incident, he felt like a different person, and he gradually couldn't see through him.
As for the article on the Internet that uncovered the rumor maker, Wang Haibo felt that Lexus was the most suspect. If he wanted to say why, the evidence in this article was too sufficient!
First of all, among the evidence listed in that article, a lot of the information is internal information of the school, such as the list of student dormitories, the relationship between brothers in the laboratory and even related alumni. This information cannot be found on the external Internet.
Arrived.
Who is so powerful that he can collect all these data completely?
It can only be someone from the school!
In addition, in that article, he revealed some of the current situation of his laboratory without leaving any trace. But it was all about good aspects, such as his instructor Wang Haibo treats his students well and so on.
In this case, the possibility that this article was written by Lexus becomes extremely high.
But Ling Zhi said that he did not do it. However, besides him, Wang Haibo could not think of anyone else. No one else in the laboratory was proficient in data collection technology.
"Lingzhi, don't be nervous. I don't want to criticize you. In fact, all the evidence listed in that article is true."
"Although some of the data was suspected of invading privacy, in the end, the rumor maker was caught with this evidence, and the invasion of privacy is not worth mentioning. If you are worried about this, I can assure you that there is no problem.
"
Wang Haibo looked at Ling Zhi swornly, thinking that saying this would make Ling Zhi put down the burden in his heart and tell him the truth. However, Ling Zhi did not give the answer he wanted.
"I'm sorry, teacher, I don't know what you are talking about. I didn't do this. What on earth do you want me to admit?"
"you......"
Wang Haibo was a little helpless, but suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and asked Ling Zhi:
"I understand, are you still thinking about going to Penguin for an internship? Later, you can send me the detailed notice of the scientific research internship, and I will evaluate it carefully. This matter is easy to discuss."
"Really? Thank you, teacher." "It's okay. That article..."
"That article was indeed not written by me."
"..."
Wang Haibo has no choice. In fact, he is 99% sure that it was Lexus who released it. However, if Lexus does not admit it, there is nothing he can do.
In fact, it is no longer important whether Ling Zhicheng admits it or not. What is important is that the matter has been solved by his hands. In this case, then he should reciprocate and give him a chance to go out for internship.
In the following days, Wang Haibo confirmed that the Penguin joint training was true. After repeated "deliberation", he finally agreed that Lexus would go to Penguin for an internship in the first half of next year.
Lin Zheng also helped in this.
Because Lin Zheng also planned to go to other departments of Penguin for internship in the first half of next year, but he couldn't find a reason and was afraid that Lao Wang would not agree.
It happened that Ling Zhi had helped Lin Zheng adjust the code of his thesis, so Lin Zheng also won Director Wang's consent for the two of them to go out for internship on the grounds that they could do scientific research with Ling Zhi at Penguin Company.
"Lingzhi, it's all thanks to you this time. If it weren't for you, my internship might have been ruined."
One afternoon a few days later, Lin Zheng thanked Lexus.
"Thanks to me? Thanks to me for what?"
Ling Zhi pretended to be confused and said.
"Huh? Didn't you catch the rumor maker? Didn't you post that article on the Internet?"
In fact, there have been many internal discussions in the past few days, but not everyone in the laboratory knows that Ling Zhi is proficient in data collection technology, except for Lin Zheng and Han Qingyue.
Han Qingyue often asked Ling Zhi questions in the past, so she knew that Ling Zhi had been doing data collection as a side job. Lin Zheng had similar topics to Ling Zhi, so in the process of doing scientific research, he had some data sharing with Ling Zhi.
And now that Han Qingyue is no longer in the laboratory, Lin Zheng is probably the only one who can guess the true identity of the person who exposed the rumor.
"I didn't post that article."
"Not you? Stop pretending. Who else is so familiar with our laboratory besides you?"
"Isn't there still you?"
"I don't know how to collect data! But to be honest, the data in that article is too complete! I can't think of where I can collect such complete data! Apart from you, I don't think our laboratory or even our school has any
People can do this."
"You think too highly of me! There are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky. Maybe some good person can't stand it and finds these rumormongers?"
"Oh, you! Do you think it's so difficult for you to admit it? You are a good person and good deeds. If you admit it, others will not do anything to you. Why are you so nervous..."
Lin Zheng kept persuading himself from the side, seeming to have identified Ling Zhi as the "real culprit behind the scenes" who exposed the rumor makers.
Ling Zhi also secretly smiled bitterly. That article was indeed not posted by him, but...he asked Han Qingyue to post it privately.
That’s right!
In fact, from the beginning, Ling Zhi decided to find out the truth of the matter and clear himself of suspicion in the eyes of Director Wang.
However, it is probably impossible to find out the real person behind the anonymous letter through the account, because the account has long been deleted by the authorities.
Although all comments on the Internet now require real names, this real name is only for website administrators. For website users, the real information of the account holder will not be disclosed.
So if that's the case, why didn't the official take advantage of the situation to reveal the true identity of the person who posted the anonymous letter?
Lexus doesn't know.
There may be many reasons. It may be that the real-name information of the anonymous letter account is false, or it may be that the nature of the rumor in the anonymous letter is difficult to judge.
Although the school investigation team has issued a notice confirming that the anonymous letter is a rumor, not all the content stated in the letter is wrong.
For example, the incident of Tang Yongxiu jumping off a building is real. Thanks to this letter, Tang Yongxiu's mentor Zhang Yuqing once again stood at the forefront of public opinion.
Also, behind so many cases of postponement of graduation, we can no longer ask each student to write a statement, sign and stamp it to prove that they are voluntarily postponed their graduation. So what are the results of the school's investigation?
It is indeed doubtful.
There is also the inconsiderate behavior of many tutors towards students mentioned in the anonymous letter. Although there is no conclusive evidence to prove it, it should not be groundless.
But the official finally banned the letter and the account, for reasons that Lingzhi could probably guess.
Officials don’t want to take responsibility!
In fact, the controversy caused by this letter is not small, but most of it is negative, which has put the platform under considerable pressure.
So regardless of whether the content of the letter is true or false, my platform has deleted the letter. Then, even if it is false, it has nothing to do with us. We have not published any false information. Even if we take responsibility, we will not be responsible.
Our platform is responsible.
It is not necessarily wrong for the official to do this. Ling Zhi himself is not very concerned about the authenticity of the letter, but he despises the letter's behavior of provoking war.
He admitted that the current relationship between teachers and students in colleges and universities does have some unharmonious facts, but he cannot deny all instructors because of these two incidents. This is what Lingzhi hates about this letter.
What's more, this letter also affected the relationship between him and Director Wang, which Ling Zhi couldn't bear. He didn't know what happened to other mentors, but he could at least confirm that Director Wang would never
It's as bad as the letter said.
So he made up his mind that since he couldn't count on the official, he must rely on his own strength to find the "real culprit behind the scenes" and truly clear his name and that of Director Wang!
But he is not omnipotent. Even he cannot get some data. After all, there is a lot of data that cannot be found on public websites.
There is also the relationship between the brothers in the laboratory, which will not be clearly written on the Internet.
Therefore, Lingzhi relied on Han Qingyue's power to provide a list of relevant tutors in the college, and Han Qingyue used his powerful data search capabilities to find tens of thousands of papers published by these tutors.
By analyzing the relationship between the authors in these papers, we can deduce a list of the students under each tutor's name and the approximate relationship between them.
As for the dormitory member information, Lingzhi asked Han Qingyue to get a detailed list of dormitory members from the intranet through VPN, but he made it clear that this list should not be sent to him, and that Han Qingyue could keep it by himself, and also reminded Han Qingyue
Please don't spread the word.
Han Qingyue is naturally very willing to help Ling Zhi, and Han Qingyue is a robot. Although she has a certain degree of autonomy, she will not do things like spreading private information. Ling Zhi trusts her in this.
What's more, Ling Zhi also believed that Han Qingyue would not disobey him.
In this way, with the help of Han Qingyue's power, Ling Zhi finally found the real culprit behind the scenes. But to be on the safe side, he did not use his own account to publish, but once again asked Han Qingyue to use her own account to publish.
At this point, I may feel a little sorry for Han Qingyue. After all, although this article exposed the rumor maker, it may still fall into the whirlpool of public opinion. For example, some people may suspect that the person who published the article is one of the rumor spreaders. They are doing this just to clear the air.
Your own relationships, etc.
Therefore, Lingzhi also made it clear that if Han Qingyue could not accept the consequences of doing this, he would give up and choose to use other methods to publish this article.
But Han Qingyue still agreed to Ling Zhi's request without hesitation, and explained that public opinion would not have any impact on her, so Ling Zhi should rest assured.
Ling Zhi thought about it carefully, Han Qingyue's existence is actually still a secret until now, and the social network account she uses may not be her own.
If one day in the future, public opinion really affects her or her manager, then Lingzhi believes that Kexun Company will carefully cover up the incident and will not let Han Qingyue's existence be exposed to the outside world.
So in the end, Lexus asked Han Qingyue to publish this article with a hint of guilt in order to properly resolve the incident, exposing the rumor maker behind the incident.
At this point, the rumor-mongering matter has truly come to an end.
But for Ling Zhi and Han Qingyue, their story has just begun.
