Chapter 426 Of course, it's time to call the police.
Ye Wanxi and the other person felt sorry that the clue about the monster's self-destruction had been cut off, while the few people hiding behind the sofa were almost scared to death by the terrifying explosion.
Once they could hear almost no noise around them, they cautiously peeked out from behind the sofa, looking at Ye Wanxi with apprehension and worry.
"Wan...Wanxi, are you alright?"
"Yes, it's all taken care of. Come out now."
The group then came to their senses and hurriedly ran out from behind the sofa.
"Is...it really alright? What was that commotion just now? And what happened to that man who was perfectly fine..."
Although Gao Min and the others could see Zhen Huijuan's ghosts while holding the amulets given to them by Ye Wanxi, they could not see the black smoke that the demon transformed into when it abandoned its physical body.
Therefore, Ye Wanxi and the other person's subsequent actions seemed strangely incongruous to them.
Before they could figure out what Ye Wanxi and the other person were doing, a deafening explosion suddenly rang out in the room.
Several people nearly experienced tinnitus on the spot, and after regaining their senses, they felt a sense of relief, as if they had survived a disaster. Even now, they are still somewhat confused.
Gao Min regretted asking the question as soon as she finished. She wasn't stupid. Wasn't the explosion without any warning enough to show that something happened right under their noses that they couldn't see?
Thinking of this, Gao Min felt a chill run down her spine, and her gaze towards Ye Wanxi became somewhat embarrassed.
Ye Wanxi saw through her hesitation at a glance and said with a half-smile, "You... really want to know?"
This laugh made not only Gao Min, but also Gao Qiang and the other two shudder and shake their heads like rattles.
"No, no, curiosity killed the cat. Don't people often say that the more you know, the faster you die? Compared to that insignificant curiosity, we would rather live to be a hundred years old."
"Yes, yes, even if you explained, we wouldn't understand, so we won't waste your breath. We just need to know that the matter has been resolved and that everything is alright."
"Mmm-hmm." Qi Xiaolian nodded hurriedly, then, as if remembering something, asked timidly, "Miss Ye, what about my cousin...?"
The group was slightly taken aback, then remembered that Qi Yanjiao was still inside, but...
Ye Wanxi glanced at Qi Yanjiao, who was lying on the ground, clutching her desk lamp in her hand, with a large bump on her head, her life hanging in the balance.
He raised an eyebrow and looked at the wandering spirits who were silently squatting to the side, pretending to be quails: "Dead?"
"No, no, just now when the explosion happened, a pendant fell down and knocked her unconscious."
"That's right, that's right, she was knocked unconscious. We didn't touch her, everyone can testify to that."
The ghosts chattered amongst themselves, each trying to corroborate the other's words, afraid that Ye Wanxi would misunderstand and think they weren't taking her seriously.
"It's good that she's not dead." Ye Wanxi wasn't really concerned about the woman; she just didn't want her to die in her own home.
"I told you to take a look at those accomplices who helped this woman kill you when you had time. Has anyone gone to see them?"
As soon as Ye Wanxi asked about this, they immediately perked up: "Yes, yes, I went to see those classmates who helped Qi Yanjiao harm me before. Most of them are now working in society. Some of them are still working at Qi Yanjiao's family company, and they usually flatter and fawn over Qi Yanjiao. But recently, because they have nightmares every night, they are in a bad mental state, and their work is also constantly going wrong. They get scolded every day."
“I went to see them too. These guys were so arrogant when they were hurting us, and now they're in such a sorry state. When I went to see them, many of them had been having nightmares for days on end. Their dark circles were almost drooping, and they looked incredibly haggard. If this continues, they'll die suddenly sooner or later.”
"They deserve it! If they had any compassion, they wouldn't be in this situation. Some of my people can't take it anymore and are preparing to turn themselves in to the police station in the next couple of days. Miss Ye also said before that as long as they admit their crimes and publicly disclose what Qi Yanjiao did, they will stop having nightmares. If they really refuse to repent and eventually die from exhaustion, that's their own choice."
"Exactly, their lives matter, but aren't our lives also matters?"
Hearing the angry and disdainful accusations from these guys, Ye Wanxi turned to look at Feng Tianyu and chuckled, "They did it all together. As long as one or two of them stand up and expose these things, the others won't be able to escape."
Ye Wanxi's mention quickly silenced the commotion, and everyone nodded in agreement.
As the leader of the group, Sister Fu looked at Qi Yanjiao with murderous intent and asked Ye Wanxi in a low voice, "Miss Ye, what should we do now?"
"Of course..." Ye Wanxi took out her phone, looking completely matter-of-fact, "call the police."
"Call...the police?"
Upon hearing Ye Wanxi's words, not only the ghosts, but even Gao Qiang and the others stared wide-eyed in horror, almost thinking they had misheard!
"That's right, call the police. Even a three-year-old knows to call the police when you encounter trouble that you can't solve. You people are all hundreds of years old combined, how come you still don't have any common sense?"
Everyone & all the ghosts: "..." I... I was speechless.
Ye Wanxi longed to be a good socialist youth, but unfortunately, she ultimately failed to report the crime to the police.
Although Qi Yanjiao did not die, the black-clad man she brought with her was dead beyond any doubt because he had lost his "soul".
This matter cannot be resolved by ordinary police officers; it can only be handled by a special department that specializes in dealing with such cases.
Ye Wanxi only learned about this department today. When Feng Tianyu called to have someone come and clean up the mess, she stood by and listened, looking completely clueless.
After Feng Tianyu hung up the phone, he tentatively asked, "Is this department very famous? I've never heard of it before?"
"It's a newly established company, and they haven't even filled all their positions yet, so it's normal that you haven't heard of it."
Ye Wanxi: "..."
"them……"
Feng Tianyu knew what she was worried about and comforted her, "This department is temporarily under the management of Xiao Baihui's people. Although it has only been established for a short time, it has some capabilities. I can't say about other things, but it can certainly clean up the mess."
Both Ye Wanxi and Feng Tianyu had dealt with Xiao Baihui several times and knew him well.
This department was handed over to his people for two reasons: firstly, Xiao Baihui was keen to win it over, and secondly, it was also to take into account Xiao Baihui's connection with them.
If that's the case, then everyone in this department must have heard of them and know their capabilities.
Why not use readily available labor? Entrusting such troublesome matters to these people is definitely more reliable and less troublesome than messing around with things yourself.
Since her senior brother had said so, Ye Wanxi felt a little relieved.
