Chapter 2431: Justice Might Be Late
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mag looked at the name list and frowned.
What a stinky circle.
Those with beautiful resumes might look kind and pure but they actually engaged in several filthy and disgusting acts.
Rape, murder, imprisonment…
These people were still active in the circle and people have been calling them ‘teachers’ respectfully.
Mag had just arrived at the Underground City and therefore, did not have the sense of righteousness to save these people from the depths of hell.
He chose a few names seriously and searched them on the web before sending out the WeTwit.
Mag’s first target was a director called Horace. He was a director who had won numerous awards. In his 300 years of cinema history, he had filmed more than 200 movies.
According to the introduction on WeTwit, he was a very well-respected director and was a shining star in the world of cinema.
A well-respected director like him had sexually assaulted more than 300 young actors in his 300 years of directing. Several victims committed suicide from the shame and the rest had nowhere to seek justice.
However, these incidents were barely mentioned on the internet.
Meanwhile, Horace was still active in the film industry. He had recently received an investment of 1 billion to shoot a large-scale war film and the news was even trending.
Mag did not pity those actors who used their bodies in exchange for an opportunity. However, among the victims, half of them were temporary actors and interns. They became a victim of Horace before they even officially stepped into the industry.
Those victims who committed suicide were basically people from this group.
They were disadvantaged and had nowhere to seek justice and even their voice on the internet was wiped out cleanly.
Behind Horace was the Dixon Family.
Yes. It was the family of that wealthy woman who owned the Twin Towers.
Mag shared the suicidal note of a victim. After sending out her final words on WeTwit, she chose to end her life by jumping off a building
In this WeTwit, she recounted the process of how she, as an extra, was sexually assaulted by Horace and two of the main actors during the shoot.
But no one saw this post. There were only three views.
This was a WeTwit that Xi helped him find.
He tagged Horace: Justice might be late, but never absent.
After sending out the WeTwit, he turned to look at Xi. “I need to ensure that this WeTwit will not be deleted and will not be restricted.”
Xi thought for a while and nodded, saying, “It’s doable.”

After Mag posted his WeTwit, he received many comments immediately.
“F*ck! Is this true? I watched Horace’s movies growing up.”
“My grandfather watched Horace’s movie growing up. He won almost all the awards in the film industry. How can he do such a thing?”
“I feel like I’m in for a rollercoaster ride.”
“This newbie is trying too hard to get attention! With director Horace’s reputation, he can be blacklisted everywhere.”
“Charlie is my childhood idol. I don’t think it’s true?”
“Waiting for comments by involved parties.”

Jasper’s incident had caused Mag’s account to be at the center of attention. Therefore, after the likes incident, Mag’s tagging of Horace together with that post, caused another uproar on WeTwit, bringing the post up to the trending list.
‘Hades Called Out Horace For Sexually Assaulting Underaged Girls!’
“Charlie, Bart, and Horace Accused of Sexual Assault!’
Many articles about that incident followed.
Reactive actions on WeTwit were swift. To decrease the attention on the topic, the comment sections were closed and keywords were hidden.
Mag watched as the topic dropped on the trending list until only one relevant topic was left. That proved how capable the other party was.
He turned back and glanced at Xi, who was chatting with someone else. He did not rush her.

At the same time, in the operations department on the 13th floor of WeTwit’s headquarters.
The Director of Operations, Amos, had a grave expression when he received the news. One of the Board of Directors requested that he remove all relevant trending topics on Horace’s case and at the same time, have Hades’ account deleted.
Meanwhile, Amos also received a report from his subordinate on the new event application submitted by the Top Chef Competition. They had received fees requesting WeTwit to redirect attention to Hades.
Amos knew straightaway what the Top Chef Competition had in mind. Jasper’s incident had brought some negative impacts on the program. Before the incident really explodes, if Horace’s incident explodes first, together with two top-notch celebrities, Charlie and Bart, everyone would be drawn to that incident and this would beat any public relations tactics.
Most importantly, behind the Top Chef Competition was the McCarthy Family and Miss Nancy was the person in charge of the program. She’s also one of the Board of Directors and therefore, he also could not offend her.
As the Director of Operations, he was definitely happy to see something like this happen. He was even willing to give them more views and attention. With a little more push, he can even hit his KPI for the year.
However, right now, this matter concerns two plutocrats and he was just a small Director of Operations. It was so difficult for him to be stuck in the middle.

“This old lecher. He should have gone to hell earlier.” Amos spat. While requesting his subordinates to push the topic down, he thought of how to communicate with the Top Chef Competition side.
This was not the first time for the Operations department to clean up Horace’s mess. They were the ones behind those posts accusing him of indecent acts disappearing.
Amos was also very uneasy. However, if he did not do it, someone would replace him and do it.

This incident suddenly exploded out of nowhere and came together with the morning incident. This caught the Operations department off-guard.
However, based on their standard procedures, this matter would just die off without a conclusion.
A commoner who just announced that she was going to join the entertainment industry, fighting against a well-respected director who had the backing of a plutocrat was like hitting a stone with an egg.
However, Amos felt that those words in the post were very striking.
“Justice might be late, but never absent!”
Guilt? Or fear?
Aren’t they accomplices as well? They silenced those girls and allowed them to die in despair.

Amos shook his head and threw those messy thoughts out of his head. He called the director of the Top Chef Competition.

Outside Tucker City, in a film and video base.
The war scene was a grand sight. This was the setting for the new movie ‘Blood and War’ that had just started filming. It was directed by the famous director Horace, with A-star actors Charlie and Bart starring in it.
These three were named the iron triangle of action and war films. They have worked together on several movies and have clinched many awards.
However, this time, the iron triangle was gathered in the director’s office with solemn expressions.
