Xiao He called the police!
When this news came out, many people were still confused and didn't know what had happened.
Even Qin Mubai, who was far away in Beijing, was momentarily stunned when he learned of this, wondering what Xiao He and his group were up to.
His and Liu Rulan's first thought was the same: How dare Xiao He?
Upon further inquiry, it turned out to be related to hackers!
It is said that Xiao He's phone was hacked and a lot of private information was stolen. Xiao He and his friends suspected that it was a sasaeng fan who was spying on their privacy, so they reported the incident to the police as soon as they discovered it.
The police have immediately confiscated Xiao He's phone and are preparing to investigate the matter.
After understanding the general situation, Qin Mubo immediately called the hacker he had found, but the other party seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth, and never replied to any of his messages again. The contact number was also directly disconnected.
Qin Mubai had a bad feeling. He sat blankly at his desk, his mind filled with doubt.
He couldn't understand it no matter how hard he tried, how Xiao He dared to call the police and get them involved in the investigation!
Once the police and cybersecurity authorities investigate hacking, if Xiao He himself has problems, they will definitely find out!
Xiao He had no courage to let the authorities get involved.
Isn't he afraid of being exposed? Surely the hackers on Xiao He's side aren't so skilled that they can erase all traces of him, making him undetectable to cybersecurity?
Haha, how could that be? Do you really think those cybersecurity people are pushovers?
Or perhaps... he really overestimated Xiao He, and Xiao He was completely open and honest from beginning to end, not afraid of the police investigation at all?
Qin Mubai's headache grew with each passing thought. His keen intuition, honed over years in politics, told him that Xiao He was definitely up to something, but reality was unfolding in a completely different way than he had imagined...
Qin Mubai had already planned it out. If the hacker he hired wasn't discovered and no relevant information was found from Xiao He, then it would mean that Xiao He was innocent for the time being. But if the hacker was discovered, then it would definitely mean that Xiao He had a powerful ally, and that the Qin family's current predicament was caused by Xiao He! Especially those secret, unspeakable documents!
However, Xiao He completely ignored the challenge and didn't follow any set pattern. Instead, he went directly and openly to the police to request an investigation.
According to Qin Mubai's understanding, the hacker virus on Xiao He's phone was dealt with by the cyber security department, and Xiao He lost many important files and data as a result.
—These facts have already been confirmed by the police; Xiao He couldn't possibly have lied to the investigation!
There were no skilled hackers around him at all.
Qin Mubo began to doubt himself.
Surely Xiao He not only possesses hacking skills comparable to those of a national team member, but also has superb acting skills capable of completely fooling the police?
Haha, how could that be? If he had, he wouldn't have missed out on the Best Supporting Actor award...
...That shouldn't be possible, right?

In Shanghai, Xiao He was unaware that his unconventional and reckless move had completely bewildered the experienced master in Beijing, who was still ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) earnestly recounting his discovery to the police.
"I knew it! My phone battery was dropping so fast for no reason! Turns out some bastard had secretly hacked into my phone and was uploading my private information in the background! It's infuriating!"
Xiao He slammed his fist on the table, looking extremely angry. Sitting in front of him was Officer Zhang, who had dealt with Xiao He a few times before.
This time, however, Officer Zhang was no longer accompanied by Officer Li, who had already been promoted to a regular officer position, but by another unfamiliar young officer.
"Okay, okay, calm down first."
Officer Zhang hadn't expected Xiao He to react so strongly. While trying to calm Xiao He down, he also tentatively asked, "Do you have any other important data on your phone right now?"
"Which one isn't important? They're all important! My contacts, my photo album, my chat messages... he even looked at my browsing history, how can I not be angry?"
Xiao He slammed his hand on the table again, looking like he was ready to go all out, his face filled with grief and indignation.
"Now that I'm a public figure, if they embellish some of my private and messy secrets and spread them online, I'll be too ashamed to show my face!"
"Cough cough—"
The young police officer standing nearby had a strange expression on his face and covered it up with a cough.
There's been a lot more and more gossip in the entertainment industry lately. He knew Xiao He too; he'd been one of the trending topics lately, and now, at this crucial moment, Xiao He's phone had been hacked...
The young police officer clicked his tongue inwardly.
If rivals or haters dig up some shameful secrets, that would be disastrous.
It's no wonder the young officer thought that way. Since their jurisdiction included a nearby film studio, they often encountered tasks related to popular celebrities when responding to calls. The closer he got to these people's daily lives, the clearer he became about their character.
Some men present themselves as single, but end up abusing their wives, leading to police intervention...
There are also cases of young, seemingly innocent actresses having secret rendezvous with wealthy men, only to be confronted by the wives of the women involved, resulting in them beating the women and even calling the police...
There was also a highly respected artist in his seventies who harassed female employees, to the point that the police were called...
The young police officer was assigned here for a while, and it certainly broadened his horizons.
So now, faced with Xiao He's worries and breakdown, the young police officer felt a mixture of pity and disgust.
He felt that Xiao He's current state was probably because there was some unspeakable secret on that phone, and Xiao He was afraid of being discovered.
Officer Zhang remained calm, reassuring Xiao He for a few moments before telling him to go back and wait for notification from the cyber police.
Xiao He's phone has been taken away by the cyber police for investigation. Officer Zhang is unsure of the situation, but after their previous interactions, he still has a good impression of Xiao He and does not harbor much prejudice against him.
After Xiao He expressed his gratitude and left, the junior officer immediately said to Officer Zhang with dissatisfaction, "There's definitely something wrong with Xiao He. His behavior is too abnormal! Shouldn't we investigate and question him further?"
Using this hacking incident as a starting point, they might be able to thoroughly investigate Xiao He and see if he has any illegal or criminal issues!
Xiao He always exudes a sinister aura! We must be wary of him!
Officer Zhang smiled as he looked at the young man in front of him, as if he were seeing Officer Li from back then. He smiled helplessly, blew on the strong tea in his hand, and said slowly, "Xiao Zhou, this is your prejudice. You can't just start to doubt all actors or people in the industry because you've only encountered the scourges of the entertainment industry recently."
"It's like your own phone; would you feel comfortable letting me check it freely?"
"Of course!"
Xiao Zhou said matter-of-factly, "I've always been open and honest in my dealings; I have no secrets!"
Officer Zhang glanced at him sideways: "Really, I can see anything? Think about it again. If you say I can really see anything, then I really will. I'll not only see it myself, but I'll also invite Xiao Li and the others to see it together."
Xiao Zhou: ...Uh.
Xiao Zhou suddenly became uncertain, took his phone back, and smiled awkwardly at Officer Zhang: "Let me double-check..."
Officer Zhang sighed and took a couple of sips of tea. Then, with his free hand, he lightly tapped Xiao Zhou on the head: "So, no one can honestly guarantee that they have no secrets, let alone celebrities like them. Every move they make is put under the spotlight and judged. What they might do unintentionally could become a stain that is later magnified and attacked by everyone. What we should do is not generalize."
Xiao Zhou was silent for a moment, then smiled ingratiatingly at Officer Zhang: "I know I was wrong."
Officer Zhang sighed softly, "Well, these people have indeed been quite unruly lately. I'm afraid Xiao He's incident this time isn't just the behavior of so-called obsessive fans. I just hope the cyber police can investigate and get back to the results as soon as possible, at least to mitigate Xiao He's losses."
...
Xiao He walked safely out of the police station.
Liu Rulan stood under the streetlight with Xiao Chen, waiting for Xiao He.
Meeting Liu Rulan's worried gaze, Xiao He smiled and waved to her, "Everyone, you've all worked hard tonight. Go back and get some rest."
Seeing Xiao He's relaxed and carefree appearance, Liu Rulan was a little annoyed and rolled her eyes at him: "Let's go, Xiao Chen will take you back, and Lao Qi will drive me back to the company."
"You're still going to the company at this hour?"
Xiao He was speechless.
Liu Rulan's reputation as a workaholic is well-deserved.
"The matter you reported to the police tonight needs to go through the process online."
Liu Rulan said helplessly, "I have to keep an eye on it myself."
Otherwise, she would always be worried.
