Chapter 106 Pressing Closer

Ye Wanxi narrowed her eyes.

In the morning, when the female crew members mentioned that the local police had uncovered a complete trafficking chain through those human traffickers, arresting many people and finding many children, she roughly guessed that the note she had left for the policewoman had come in handy.

She just didn't expect that someone would notice her so quickly because of this, and that they would come to her door so soon.

Before Ye Wanxi could say anything, Gao Min leaned closer and asked suspiciously, "You slipped someone a note before you left? How come I didn't know?"

"You were too busy playing with the kids to know that."

Gao Min, who was so engrossed in playing with her child that she neglected her duties, was speechless. I couldn't even argue with her.

"It's me." Ye Wanxi raised her eyes and looked directly at Xiao Baihui. She had already figured it out. Among these people, this was the real powerful figure who held the decision-making power.

“The talismans they have are drawn by me, and I also slipped them that note. Do you think I shouldn’t have done this?”

That casual rhetorical question left everyone in the room speechless.

Shouldn't it? Of course not.

If it weren't for the person in front of him, the kidnapping case would not have been resolved without any casualties, the human traffickers would not have been arrested, and the parents who lost their children would not have been able to find their lost children so quickly.

Even though Xiao Baihui and others were afraid of her, they had to admit that Ye Wanxi was doing a good thing, a good thing that involved human lives.

"I'm just curious, how did Miss Ye manage to do that?"

"Of course it's a guess, otherwise do you think I'm in cahoots with them?"

"Guessed?" Xiao Baihui's expression suddenly darkened. "Such an important matter, and you're telling me you guessed it? Miss Ye, I hope you can cooperate with the investigation truthfully."

“That’s the truth.” Ye Wanxi’s face also darkened. “I know why you came to me. The two things I just mentioned, and what happened online, have made you nervous. You don’t know my abilities, whether I’m good or evil, and you don’t know if I can be used by you or become someone else’s weapon to hurt you and the people of this land.”

"If that's the case, you can rest assured. I just want to be a simple little star, a simple 'ordinary person,' and help those I think should be helped. I won't do anything to help the wicked, and I certainly won't do anything to harm others. Of course, the premise is that others don't provoke me or the people around me."

Ye Wanxi thought she had explained it clearly enough, but the more she said it, the uglier Xiao Baihui's expression became.

The two faced each other for a while before Xiao Baihui spoke again.

"According to our investigation, you were an orphan and grew up in an orphanage. As you grew older, you worked part-time to get into high school and then went on to university. But the year you graduated from high school, the director of the orphanage suddenly fell ill and died."

"After learning about this, you were emotionally distraught and had a car accident on your way back to the orphanage, spending nearly half a year in the hospital. Upon waking, you resolutely gave up the opportunity to attend university and entered the entertainment industry to earn money to support the orphanage, a commitment you continue to this day..."

Ye Wanxi was a little confused when she heard this. What did she mean by giving up the opportunity to go to college after waking up and entering the entertainment industry to make money to support the orphanage?

The thief who stole her body clearly only entered the entertainment industry for his own vanity, and there was also her university acceptance letter...

Speaking of Ye Wanxi, she gets angry. After all, she worked hard for three years to get it, and it was torn apart by that thief.

Fortunately, she had cultivated herself in another world for more than ten years and had become indifferent to many things after returning. Otherwise, she would probably have used forbidden techniques to drag that person's soul back and give him a good beating.

Xiao Baihui didn't notice Ye Wanxi's momentary daze and continued, "After entering the entertainment industry, you've remained lukewarm, and in fact, your career has been declining for the past two years. Until about half a month ago, you posted a prediction on your verified account."

Ye Wanxi corrected him: "To be precise, it's three prophecies."

Xiao Baihui's eyes narrowed slightly: "That's right, there are three prophecies, and two of them have already come true."

"Of the three prophecies I gave, apart from the first one, the other two didn't specify a time or place. Didn't you ever think that I just said it casually and it just happened to happen? After all, unpredictable things happen in this world every moment, but they are just magnified by people without their knowledge."

Of course they thought about it, so they didn't take it to heart at first.

It wasn't until they saw the video that went viral online and heard about everything that happened in Z City that they understood.

Some things may happen once or twice, but if they happen three or four times, you must take them seriously.

Therefore, they immediately sought out Zou Yuanhe and his fellow disciples, but before they could even get started, Zou Yuanhe brought up the previous incident involving the Xiao family, confirming that Ye Wanxi was indeed capable.

Now, even if they didn't want to believe it, the two of them had no choice but to make this trip.

“We obtained the video of your confrontation with Wen Yuan and her husband on the night we caught them in the act.”

Ye Wanxi was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect these people to check so carefully and even get this.

"Prior to this, Miss Ye had never displayed any abilities related to metaphysics, yet that very night she recounted the man's numerous romantic affairs as if she had been taught by a teacher..."

Before Xiao Baihui could finish speaking, Ye Wanxi interrupted him, saying, "It's not something you can do without a teacher."

"What?"

"I didn't learn it on my own; I had a teacher."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed again, and Xiao Baihui narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Oh, then where is your master? Where is he now?"

“My master is a very low-key person and doesn’t like being restrained, so he went on a long journey. I don’t know where he is now.”

"In other words, you have no way to prove his existence."

You don't believe me?

"According to our investigation, since your birth, we have never found the master you mentioned by your side."

Ye Wanxi seemed to have anticipated their response, and simply asked, "What do you think of my abilities?"

Xiao Baihui frowned: "Miss Ye, please don't change the subject."

Ye Wanxi sneered: "You've all seen my abilities just now. Everything I know was taught to me by my master. Do you think my master would deliberately hide his existence from you? Do you think you could find him?"

Xiao Baihui was speechless. After what Ye Wanxi had just shown, these words were truly... hard to refute.

"Furthermore, please understand that I am sitting here today out of respect for your work. It does not mean that I am your prisoner and need to unconditionally accept your impolite questioning. If there is a next time..." Ye Wanxi's face darkened completely, and her voice was colder than ever before, "Believe me or not, I will make sure you never leave this place."
