Gou Wei's death caused a tremendous uproar around the world.
Whether at home or abroad, nearly every media outlet unanimously pointed the finger at Chen Mo of the Ant Army Group.
Five days later, under the scrutiny of global media, the police released their investigation results: preliminary findings indicated that Huaxia citizen Gou Wei had died in an accidental drowning, with no evidence of homicide discovered for the time being.
Gou Wei's abnormal death at this time undoubtedly gave conspiracy theorists plenty of room for speculation. The matter was certainly not as simple as outsiders imagined.
"First he was threatened with death, and now he's completely dead. Accidental death? Who would believe that? This could be made into a movie. In today's society, it would be too easy for a professional assassin to kill someone without leaving a trace."
"If this has nothing to do with the Ant Army Group, I wouldn't believe it even if you beat me to death. As expected, having money means you can do whatever you want. Even the police don't dare investigate."
"Someone's dirty deeds were exposed, and his perfect image collapsed. He instantly turned into a scumbag and a beast in human clothing. Now Gou Wei has been retaliated against—isn't that perfectly normal?"
"Chen Mo should be arrested and investigated."
"The law only protects the rich. Wake up, comrades."
"This world is dangerous."
"I feel like this isn't so simple. The second piece of gossip was juicy. This story tells us that people really shouldn't talk nonsense."
All kinds of conspiracy theories flew everywhere. Even though the Ant Army Group refuted the rumors, it still faced overwhelming abuse from around the world, especially within the country.
Yet the Ant Army Group behaved unusually and did not launch any especially forceful public relations response.
