Even those who have really made mistakes and been imprisoned, and want to start a new life after being released from prison, will eventually be forced to go to a dead end again by such public opinion.
Killing people is terrible, but the evil on the Internet is also an invisible knife. They may not be able to count how many people they have killed with this knife.
But if someone is actually killed, no one on the Internet will admit that they are the executioner. They are all innocent.
…
Among the sounds of scolding Gu Mo, there were also a few weak voices.
"I am already 40 years old. I remember that this incident made a big fuss back then. The truth seems to be different from what is being circulated on the Internet now, right?"
"People like us who are forty years old should all know what happened back then. Although Gu Mo was sentenced, almost no one thought she was guilty at the time. She was guilty only because she violated the national law.
, she has also pleaded guilty and paid the due price. Twenty years have passed, and when I think of the shock I felt when I saw the video in the warehouse, I still feel sorry for that little girl who was only 18 years old. I hope everyone can let it go.
Let her, let her spend the rest of her life quietly..."
However, these people who know the truth back then already have working families and don’t actually have much time to hang out online.
Nowadays, the mainstream users of the Internet are young people in their teens to twenties. When they decide what is the truth, how can a small group of people change it?
They cursed online, but Gu Mo's heart remained unmoved.
Killing your enemy with your own hands allows you to get out of the psychological shadow. If you are not accidentally killed, you will be very calm to accept other shadows.
People always have to lose something.
And she is the same. Since she chose to plead guilty and go to jail instead of her original self, she is also prepared to withstand the pressure of public opinion she faces today.
Gu Mo also knew that she would definitely not be able to continue her job as a lifeguard in the scenic area.
On the day she resigned, a group of young people went diving secretly on the seabed. Two of them had an accident and were unable to come out.
The other lifeguards were helpless after getting into the water several times. Gu Mo said, "I'll go ahead."
She didn't care how those people looked at her.
After a while, she went into the water and fished them both out.
When the two people woke up and saw her, they were so frightened that they immediately stepped back a long way.
Thanks to Tom, she was afraid that others wouldn't recognize Gu Mo, so she posted photos of Gu Mo from various angles to the entire Internet.
When Gu Mo saw the reaction of the two people, he just smiled and went to the office of the person in charge of the scenic spot.
Seeing that she was here to apply for resignation, the person in charge was silent for a moment.
"Gu Mo, I'm sorry..."
Because even if Gu Mo doesn't come, the scenic spot will definitely fire Gu Mo for the sake of performance.
"It's okay. This is my own problem. I've caused you trouble. It's mine that should say sorry."
Gu Mo took a step forward and handed the resignation information to the person in charge, but the person in charge couldn't help but retreat.
Realizing that this behavior hurt people and self-esteem, he explained awkwardly, "I just, just..."
Gu Mo silently put down the information and left.
However, this was not over yet, she resigned and moved to another place to live.
No matter where she moved, Mrs. Tom would always follow her with her little daughter, handing out printed information to the landlord and neighbors...
No one dared to rent a house to Gu Mo, and no one was willing to give Gu Mo a job.
Gu Mo used the salary paid to her by the scenic spot to buy a tent and paint pens. She would find a place to paint during the day and set up a tent anywhere at night.
In the beginning, Tom followed her wherever she went.
But Gu Mo didn’t have a family, but she did. Her youngest daughter still had to go to school, and she still had to work. Naturally, she couldn’t follow Gu Mo all over the city. Later, she gave up following Gu Mo and just continued to follow him online every day.
She complained bitterly about Gu Mo's crimes, wishing that everyone who saw Gu Mo could go up and stab Gu Mo on her behalf.
This was indeed effective. Everyone knew Gu Mo and no one asked her to draw. She was hit several times while she was sleeping at night.
But everyone has their own lives, and it's impossible for anyone to stare at her all day long, so things will get better over time.
During this year, she traveled to every corner of the city.
I saw a young man trying to commit suicide on the bridge and I pulled him up.
I have seen a girl encounter an accident while taking an online car-hailing service in the wilderness, and I have saved her.
I also saw the crimes and transactions hidden in the night, and reported them once or twice
The whole world is abandoning her, but she still takes the place of her original self, living strong and hard, looking forward to the day when she will have a new life.
Until Mother Gu found her again.
This time, it was not Gu's mother herself, but Wen Zhe, her son from her second marriage.
The teenage boy stood in front of her, his face full of impatience.
"My mother is sick and has cancer. She must see you before she dies."
This year, the Wen family also encountered many things. First, Wen's father died in an accident, and then Gu's mother got cancer...
Wen Zhe, who is not yet an adult, is about to become an orphan.
Gu Mo almost thought about what Gu's mother would say when she saw her, but this time, she had to go and see her instead.
When I saw Gu's mother in the hospital, she was so thin that only skin and bones were left.
She asked Wen Zhe to go out, leaving only Gu Mo. She looked at Gu Mo with tearful eyes and said:
"I heard that you have been wandering outside this year, and your mother has been looking for you..."
Gu Mo, "..."
Probably Gu Mo's expression was too cold, which made Gu's mother unable to say more sad words.
"Xiao Mo, Mom is dying, can you agree to Mom's request?"
Gu Mo said: "I will handle your posthumous affairs for you. I won't ask for any of your money or house, so don't worry. As for your son, I definitely can't take care of it for you."
One sentence directly blocked what Gu's mother was about to blurt out.
Gu's mother coughed violently for a long time, and her pale face turned red with excitement.
"Xiao Mo, the reason why I risked giving birth to your brother at such an old age is because I hope you can have someone to rely on after you come out. As long as your brother is successful in the future, no one will dare to bully you..."
Gu Mo, "..."
She wasn't even allowed to get close to Wen Zhe, and she still said that her son was born for her?
Gu Mo bets that if Gu's mother had not been terminally ill, she would never have let Wen Zhe get close to her in this life.
Now that she is ill and knows that no one cares about her son, she starts to use family affection to trap her?
How could there be such a mother in the world? However, Gu's mother never felt that she was not a qualified mother. On the contrary, she always believed that she was a good mother who endured humiliation and shouldered heavy burdens, was so great that no one could criticize her at all.
