Chapter 728 High-quality Talents
"Ayan!" Sister-in-law Fu's expression changed slightly. She also had feelings for her sister-in-law, and she was saddened by her sister-in-law's sudden death.
Similarly, she could understand her husband's feelings, but this was no ordinary case of harming people; they had all seen how terrifying the monster was.
Those who can manipulate these monsters and make them help harm others are definitely more terrifying than these monsters themselves.
They were just ordinary people, how could they possibly fight against a monster? They had already lost a loved one, and she couldn't afford to lose her husband as well.
Brother Fu's eyes were red and swollen: "Did my sister die in vain? She was only in her early twenties, her life was just beginning, why... why did this happen..."
Aunt Fang's eyes were red, and she couldn't bear it, so she turned her face away and secretly wiped away her tears.
She is a rather emotional person, and her own daughter was also a victim. Putting herself in their shoes, if it were their daughter who had been in this situation, they would probably be too heartbroken to go on living.
"Right, that monster, that monster..."
Ye Wanxi met Brother Fu's sorrowful gaze and sighed, "It's inside, it will soon dissipate, which can be considered revenge for your sister. Your wife's concerns are valid; you can't control or handle this matter. Leave the rest to those who are capable."
Just as Ye Wanxi finished speaking, there was a knock on the Fu family's door.
A large group of people filed in, their sheer number startling the Fu couple, who were still grieving.
"Ms. Ye."
"Mr. Zou." The person who came was Zou Yiluan, Xiao Baihui's capable assistant.
Originally, this matter didn't require someone as important as him to get involved, but Xiao Jihui was busy. He didn't get a definite answer the first time he called, and the second time his phone was simply switched off.
This was no small matter, so Ye Wanxi had no choice but to call her father.
Xiao Baihui took this matter very seriously and immediately sent people over to help.
It just so happened that Zou Yiluan was in the city recently. After hearing about this, he volunteered to come and check the situation with his team.
With someone in charge taking over, Ye Wanxi's life became much easier. In addition to the Fu family, Zhao Fangzhao's family, as victims, also needed to be questioned and sign some confidentiality agreements to prevent the information from being leaked and causing panic.
Zou Yiluan was experienced in these finishing touches, so Ye Wanxi didn't need to worry about them.
What Ye Wanxi is really concerned about now is the evil spirits and monsters in her hands and the disappeared online shop.
"After receiving Ms. Ye's call, we immediately had someone check the shop you mentioned."
What was the result?
"No. Even with the highest level of access, we still couldn't find a single trace, as if... it had never existed."
If Ye Wanxi hadn't told them this, Xiao Baihui would probably have thought it was a fake news spread by someone to play a trick on them.
"There are definitely shops, and they are certainly not the only victims."
The previous jade shop, which also harmed people by casting a wide net, at least had traces to follow, and the victims could be found by referring to the account books.
That's great, it just disappeared without a trace.
Just as the group was at a loss, unsure how to rescue the other victims, Ye Wanxi's phone rang.
"Fourth Senior Brother, what? You found out?"
The other party's withdrawal was indeed swift, and their efforts to eliminate traces were highly effective. Even the most skilled computer expert or hacker genius would never be able to find their trail.
Unfortunately, the mastermind behind it all probably never imagined that they would run into people like Ye Wanxi.
Just as they can erase all traces with special means, Jiang Lin can also use the same methods to break through the illusions they have created and expose their true colors.
"This is the shop I reconstructed." Jiang Lin knew the seriousness of the matter, so instead of sending the information directly to Ye Wanxi as before, he brought his computer over.
Ye Wanxi and the others took a closer look and found that the now-disappeared shop page was no different from any other handmade custom shop. The only differences were that the dolls were more beautiful and exquisite, and the prices were somewhat unreasonable.
"This doll is really beautiful, I bet a lot of people will buy it." Qiu Yuerong benefited from Ye Wanxi's fame and wasn't taken away like the others.
Looking at the various replicas in the store, she couldn't help but sigh. These dolls looked more like handicrafts and works of art. Even someone like her, who doesn't have any particular feelings about dolls, couldn't honestly say they weren't beautiful. One can only imagine how a seasoned doll enthusiast would react to such products.
The people present shared roughly the same thought, and that was indeed the case.
"This store has been open for three months, and this is the list of customers."
Jiang Lin opened a document, and scrolled down to find at least a hundred people listed.
Zou Yiluan's face turned green, because he had just learned that a victim had lost his life because of this.
Before this, Zou Yiluan had the opportunity to see the demon that Ye Wanxi had Xiao Jihui's men take away, and he knew how terrifying it was.
Who would have thought that less than a few days later, something just as terrifying would appear?
Now he was told that there were hundreds of such ghostly things, and that they had likely spread and killed dozens or even hundreds of people!
Zou Yiluan's scalp tingled with rage: "These people must be brought under control immediately. It would be best if they could be saved. But those who are already too late must not be allowed to escape!"
According to Ye Wanxi, these demons initially only sucked people's blood, but later they would gradually take over people's minds, just like the demons that devour people's souls.
Given time, they can completely take over the host's body, and then they will truly become a group of ghosts in human skin.
If they succeed, those around them will be in danger, and no one can guarantee that they won't spread further and turn others into these monsters as well.
If that were to happen, it would be like an alien invasion, even more terrifying than the end of the world!
Zou Yiluan was startled by his own idea and dared not be careless in the slightest. He immediately gathered people to help.
As the only expert who could confirm the other party's true location and uncover reliable information, Jiang Lin was naturally kept behind by Zou Yiluan to help him. Moreover, Zou Yiluan was somewhat envious of Jiang Lin's abilities.
"Miss Ye, would your senior colleague be interested in joining our department? Our department offers excellent benefits, especially for exceptional talents like him. We provide top-notch protection, and his salary, bonuses, and other perks will certainly not be unfair to him."
Ye Wanxi was a little embarrassed, and said tactfully, "My senior brother shouldn't need protection, and he shouldn't lack bonuses or anything like that."
