The two of them hid in a secluded corner, chatting in low voices out of boredom.
Jia Xibei took this opportunity to express all his doubts. "Wanwan, why can't the dogs kill her? Is it because of the necklace?"
Wen Wan secretly glanced at the middle of the road. After making sure that no one had come, she carefully explained to her, "The dogs couldn't kill her because of the necklace. To be more precise, it was because of the power of the necklace."
"If it weren't for that necklace, she would have died countless times. But it's a good thing she didn't die. It wouldn't be worth it for the dogs to be guilty of killing her!"
Jia Xibei nodded, not quite understanding, and then asked, "You said yesterday that someone was helping her. Who was that person?"
Wen Wan patiently explained, "Of course it was the person who gave her the necklace. As for who that person was... I can't make any conclusions right now, but I do have a guess in my mind, and it should be pretty close."
"Huh?" Jia Xibei exclaimed in surprise, incredulous. "Are there things and people in this world that you can't predict?"
Wen Wan rolled her eyes when she heard this and said angrily, "Please! I just have one more skill than ordinary people. In the end, I am still a human being, not a god!"
"Everyone has weaknesses. Although I'm a little reluctant to admit it, that person's strength is indeed on par with mine, even on par with me. What I can calculate, he can naturally calculate as well. It will definitely be difficult to deal with him."
Her words were meant to show that she wasn't omnipotent, but Jia Xibei was even more surprised when he heard them. "How could there be someone in this world who could be on par with you???"
Wen Wan: “…”
She is really crazy. It turns out that she is omnipotent in the eyes of her fans. This filter must be at least as thick as a city wall, right?
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore!" Jia Xibei looked at her complicated expression and burst out laughing.
Wen Wan looked at her unbridled smile and realized she had been fooled. Her mood suddenly became even more complicated. Was Jia Xibei destined by God to bring bad luck to her? How could she have such a fate?
Jia Xibei winked at her proudly and asked directly, "Who do you think that person is? Do you know him? Are you on good terms with him?"
"Knowing each other?" Wen Wan recalled those not-so-good memories and sneered, "...I guess I know them."
"Actually, I don't know his true identity, but we've dealt with him many times before. What he does is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. The more evil the things he does, the more he does them. I still don't know his purpose."
"As for our relationship, I can only say... he's my enemy. If I could catch him, I would kill him on the spot to prevent him from causing further harm to the world!"
"So that's how it is!" Jia Xibei nodded thoughtfully, then asked excitedly, "Are we lying in ambush here to capture him? Or is it for Xiao Xiao?"
Wen Wan curled her lips in disdain, "Xiao Xiao? Who the hell is she? Is a scoundrel like her worthy of being ambushed by me?"
"You'll be fined for the pun!" Jia Xibei decisively complained about her.
Wen Wan suppressed the urge to hit her, raised an eyebrow, looked at her and threatened, "...Are you upset if you haven't been expelled from the fan club for even one day?"
"Just kidding, just kidding!" Jia Xibei quickly made a gesture of begging for mercy, and then brought the topic back to the main topic, "So we really want to catch that bad guy?"
Wen Wan held her forehead helplessly and explained seriously, "If I really wanted to deal with Xiao Xiao, I could have made her surrender yesterday. If it wasn't to lure the snake out of its hole, why wait until today?"
"The power of that necklace can actually protect her for a long time. I was just trying to scare her yesterday. With her personality, she's definitely going to be suspicious. She'll suspect I've tampered with the necklace, or will do so in the future."
Jia Xibei opened his eyes wide in surprise, "So you deliberately set aside a day for her?"
"Yes." Wen Wan nodded slightly to confirm her words and continued; "Although she was not sure that there was a problem with the necklace, she was not sure that there was no problem either.
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will begin to take root and sprout, making her constantly suspicious and fearful. Who would be willing to gamble their life on that?"
After hearing this, Jia Xibei also had an idea in his mind and continued, "So in order to avoid being frightened every day, she will try to find a way to solve this matter, but she doesn't have the ability to do it, so she will ask for help from the person who owns the necklace!"
Wen Wan looked at her with a look of satisfaction, nodded and praised: "After all, you are not too stupid. You are teachable!"
Jia Xibei was in a good mood after being praised by his idol, but he still didn't understand something, so he had to continue asking, "But how did you know they would meet here?"
"I'm not sure!" Wen Wan answered simply.
Jia Xibei: "...Then why are we lying in ambush here? What if she meets us somewhere else during the day?"
Wen Wan told her her guess, "According to my understanding of that person, he usually appears when people are desperate, and then deceives them into "helping" when their psychological defenses are at their weakest.
"Then she will completely disappear. She usually reappears when she can reap the rewards. So no matter where she looks, she probably won't be able to find that person because she hasn't reached the point where she can reap the rewards yet."
Jia Xibei scratched his head in confusion and asked, "Harvest results?"
"Yes, the results." Wen Wan nodded slightly, then explained carefully, "From what I know, he uses different methods to collect resentment in people's hearts. That necklace is one of them. He usually only appears when there are enough evil thoughts."
