"Is that so..."
Xia Che was skeptical. He himself had no clue what to do, so what good ideas could Chu Yuying, this little brat whose intelligence was clearly not fully developed, possibly have?
"So, as a top-tier psychic, do you have any good ideas?"
Xia Che raised an eyebrow, deliberately emphasizing the words "Ultimate High School Level," a hint of a smile playing in his eyes.
"Don't laugh at me... Honestly, I'm trying to help you out of kindness, and you're being sarcastic."
Noticing the hidden meaning in Xia Che's words, Chu Yuying couldn't help but recall that night in the abandoned teaching building, and her pretty face instantly flushed red.
Isn't this just mocking her?
The ultimate psychic was scared to death by a prank.
That blond bastard really doesn't miss any opportunity to laugh at me.
Psychopath!
“If you’re willing to come to me, then there’s a way. Just tell me who you suspect, and then leave everything to me.”
Chu Yuying snorted, thinking to herself that she was too magnanimous to hold a grudge against the blond-haired man, and her goal was to resolve the scandal as quickly as possible.
"So confident? Really...?"
Xia Che raised an eyebrow.
"Do you know why I've been able to make a lot of money from rich people despite having the identity of a top-tier psychic, which is easily seen through?"
Noticing the distrust on Xia Che's face, Chu Yuying felt a surge of pride, putting her hands on her hips, puffing out her chest, and looking smug.
"Why?"
Xia Che was very perceptive; he knew this girl wanted him to ask her a question, so he simply played the straight man.
However, he was also very curious about how Chu Yuying managed to use the fake identity of the Ultimate High School Level Psychic to move around various wealthy people, solve their paranormal problems, and never be exposed, but instead her fame grew.
The scenes in the original work are fragmented, either at the beginning or already over, without any specific process.
"Because of people's hearts."
"There is no absolutely evil person, nor is there an absolutely bright person. Everyone has a hidden side in their heart that they will keep to themselves and never tell anyone, because they know how disgusting their dark side is."
"That's why people with a dark side worry about their dark side being discovered, and this thought becomes even stronger when they encounter something that frightens them."
Chu Yuying shrugged. "The richer a person is, the bigger their dark side tends to be. This doesn't mean that every rich person is corrupt, but rather that those who become rich have seen too much dirty stuff. They have rivals and colleagues. Some people won't do what they do, but they also won't report it to the police, because they know how big a mess it would be if they exposed everything."
"If you don't weigh it, it's not even four ounces; if you do, it's a thousand pounds... I can understand that there are occasionally kind-hearted rich people, but they can't risk their loved ones being killed to expose all of this. The only thing they can do is to protect themselves."
Xia Che picked up the conversation, his gaze towards Chu Yuying changing slightly.
He was well aware of these unspoken rules, having lived two lifetimes, but how could Chu Yuying, at such a young age, understand them?
It seems that her experiences over the years, while bringing her hardship, have also helped her grow a lot.
Did I really underestimate her?
"You do have some insight, not bad, little blondie."
Chu Yuying smiled gently and said, "We've gone a bit off-topic... In short, the reason why those rich people believe me is not because they are stupid, but because they are under too much psychological pressure and desperately need an outlet. At this time, the existence of ghosts and gods is a pretty good way to find spiritual solace."
"So, they have all done or witnessed those bad things to some extent. When they encounter some trouble, they subconsciously think about ghosts and gods, wondering if this is retribution. I took advantage of their fear of the unknown to succeed repeatedly and make a little money."
"As for this scandal, I think my method will work on that paparazzi as well."
Chu Yuying smiled mysteriously. Just now, she seemed so otherworldly, as if she had seen through everything in the world, mature beyond her years. But at this moment, she seemed to have returned to that mischievous little imp, grinning and revealing two cute little tiger teeth, as if the mature woman from before was not her at all. "Just give me a target, and I can set a trap for him. What's so strange about using the fear of having done something wrong to get some information out of him?"
Xia Che finally understood Chu Yuying's solution. His eyes lit up instantly, and his heart started pounding uncontrollably. All the troubles he had just felt vanished at that moment.
You really shouldn't believe it!
With Chu Yuying, the ultimate psychic, even though she doesn't have any special skills and can't communicate with spirits, she can still set up a scheme. She can even fool those rich people who are almost like demons. Dealing with a high school student who secretly takes pictures is a piece of cake.
If Chu Yuying were to handle this, she might actually be able to do it!
"I do have people I suspect, but can you manage alone?"
Xia Che glanced at the time; the free time was about to end. Rumors spread faster than viruses, and he hoped to find the person responsible today.
Now, every extra hour increases the risk of being seen by school leaders.
"If you have any helpers here, that would be even better."
Chu Yuying was well aware of how far the rumors could spread, so she didn't make any boastful claims.
She can't speed things up by handling this alone.
"Yes, um... come with me."
Xia Che thought for a moment, then waved and turned to walk down the rooftop, with Chu Yuying following closely behind.
She always had a smile on her face.
With me here this time, I'm determined to get rid of this nasty scandal no matter what!
I never want to hear any more rumors about that blond guy.
...
The afternoon flew by, and gradually evening arrived, with the moon and stars shining brightly.
Every so often, a few students are randomly selected to clean the classroom and the various areas belonging to the class after school. A cleaning session takes at least one or two hours.
So no student wants to be chosen, but there are always some unlucky ones who are.
Zhang Yun and Wei Guang were the unlucky ones from Class 7 this time.
"Sigh... This whole thing is a mess. First we were suspected of being paparazzi, and then we were assigned to do chores. Brother Guang, why are we so unlucky?"
Zhang Yun was carrying a bucket of water, and contrary to his obese appearance, his hands trembled incessantly as he held the bucket. His arms, which should have been strong, were shaking like chaff.
