The Sihe Fortress is shrouded in darkness.
The daily routines of the people in the west courtyard are based on the time displayed on clocks and virtual screens.
With a series of whooshing sounds, three spaceships rose from the main courtyard and sped off towards the east.
Looking through the window, Jia Zhangshi was overjoyed. Excitedly, she opened the door and slipped into Yi Zhonghai's house across the street: "Ah Hai, can our plan be put into action now?"
"Wait, let's refine this a bit more." Yi Zhonghai was extremely annoyed by her two-timing behavior. He had been rejected every time he proposed marriage, and he realized that she was determined to have it both ways and treat him like a tool. He decided to quit.
Madam Jia Zhang didn't notice anything amiss: "How do we refine the plan?"
"Well, you need to ask Yan Fugui for help with this, and make Liu Haizhong bleed. If anything goes wrong, it's their responsibility, and it won't involve you or me." Yi Zhonghai made empty promises and waved his hand to urge people on.
Jia Zhangshi was delighted to hear that she wouldn't be held responsible. The people from the cooperative's security bureau were not to be trifled with; if you were caught doing something wrong, you would be beaten and interrogated, which was no human life. It was much better to have someone take the blame.
But he was still worried and lingered, asking, "I could ask Liu Hai to bleed and ask Yan Fugui for help in scheming against Wu Niang, but Yan Fugui isn't stupid. Why would he help us break the law?"
"Yan Fugui is greedy for money. Tell him that he can easily scheme against Wu Niang without leaving a trace. Since she's not present, it's not considered a crime."
Then have his son Yan Jiecheng use his stinginess ability to restrain Wu Niang, while you ask the old lady Long from the backyard to take a stroll and unleash her power. Taking down Wu Niang will be a piece of cake.
"And you've planned out the timing for Bang Geng to drug Wu Niang, and after it's done, you'll arrange for Liu Haizhong, Uncle Li, and the others to do some tricks, and then Wu Niang will be eliminated..."
"Yi Zhonghai, are you deserting your post?" Jia Zhangshi finally realized that this guy wanted to run away.
Yi Zhonghai said disdainfully, "You should leave now, you don't have much time left."
After all, it's not common for the main academy to send troops to suppress elite demons.
If you miss this opportunity, who knows how long you'll have to wait for another chance?
"Yi Zhonghai, let me tell you, the entire plot to murder Wu Niang was planned by you alone. You are the mastermind, hmph!" Jia Zhangshi said this and walked out the door, leaving Yi Zhonghai furious and with nowhere to vent his anger.
However, Yi Zhonghai was not afraid. No one would believe empty words. He would just deny it to the death and accuse them of framing him.
Having figured things out, Yi Zhonghai hummed a tune, sipped his wine, enjoyed life, and prepared to watch a good show.
Jia Zhangshi ran to the front yard, knocked on the door, and called out Yan Fugui, who whispered in her ear, "Yan Laosan, are you interested in doing business with me?"
"Jia Zhangshi, you're just a greedy pig that only takes in and never gives out. It's no wonder you can't make any money in business."
"I'm warning you, don't even think about messing with my family. Get out of here!" Yan Fugui waved his hand to shoo him away, taking a step back to create some distance.
Getting involved with this old hag is bound to bring bad luck.
Although Jia Zhangshi no longer throws tantrums and summons spirits like before, she never admits to anything when she tries to extort money from people.
If he's unhappy, he'll summon Fallen Ones to slash and kill, engaging in a chaotic and violent fight.
This was only after the Cooperative Security Bureau's puppet suppression; otherwise, she could have slaughtered everyone and become a king.
Jia Zhangshi reached out and grabbed his right upper pocket, threatening, "Yan Laosan, believe it or not, I'll yell 'You've assaulted me,' and you'll be finished..."
"Jia Zhangshi, you've come to the wrong person. My family is watching through the window, and they even have the credentials..." Yan Fugui stopped struggling because he couldn't break free, having taken precautions.
Earth left behind a saying: Beware of fire, theft, and your best friend.
In this courtyard house, it serves as a safeguard against extortion, fraud, and indecent assault.
Jia Zhangshi quickly took out a pair of shorts from her pocket and stuffed them into Yan Fugui's shirt pocket. Yan Fugui sensed something was wrong and reached out to take them out, but Jia Zhangshi backed away and laughed, "Yan Fugui, you stole my shorts, now I've caught you!"
"Damn it, you tricked me..." Yan Fugui realized as soon as he took out her disgusting shorts that fingerprints were left on them, and he couldn't clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
Nowadays, the people living in the courtyard houses are no longer ignorant of the law.
Meanwhile, the methods for handling cases have become increasingly sophisticated.
Fingerprint investigation is just one of the methods used; now even Jia Zhangshi is using them, making it impossible to guard against.
With a "whoosh," the Yan family members all came out, each with an angry expression, but they were powerless against the smug Jia Zhangshi.
This is blatant extortion!
Unfortunately, the supernatural abilities of her entire family were useless against her.
Superpowers target the mind, soul, and body, but all are superpowered individuals, and their defensive capabilities vary.
Under the rule of law that prohibits violence and bloodshed, if Jia Zhangshi were to use her supernatural abilities, she would likely call for help to catch the hooligans, and if things escalated, no one would be in a good place.
If simply disturbing public order, disturbing the peace, or creating internal conflicts can all be punished, then we'd have to use energy cores to buy peace, right?
The Yan family figured it wouldn't be worth making a scene, so Yan Jiecheng spoke up: "Jia Zhangshi, tell me, what do you want?"
"It's nothing, I just want your family to see Banggeng enter the room next to your house, so you can use your scheming and stinginess abilities. It's easy to do it while you're at home, right?" Jia Zhangshi whispered to Yan Laosan's wife.
Yan Laosan's wife and her family huddled together and whispered among themselves, unaware that Jia Zhangshi had taken out her phone and was snapping photos and videos. When the family saw what was happening, they were dumbfounded.
Now it's all over; Jia Zhangshi has obtained all the evidence of their conspiracy.
Yan Fugui was so angry that he pounded his chest and stamped his feet: "Jia Zhangshi, this is the only time, get out of here."
"Tch, I'm not going to serve you then!" Jia Zhangshi raised her phone to show off her evidence, then swayed her fat hips and barrel-shaped waist as she walked away.
The family felt disgusted by the sight and immediately threw away the shorts, but Yan Laosan's wife picked them up: "Don't throw them away, you can wash them and still wear them..."
"Where are my underwear? Give it back!" Jia Zhangshi returned, snatched the underwear, and left. This enraged the Yan family even more: "Damn it, we're going to report them to the cooperative's security bureau..."
"Shut up. If you report it, and the cooperative's security bureau sends people to investigate, what if Jia Zhangshi denies everything?"
It suddenly became a false accusation.
Besides, Jia Zhangshi has dirt on us. If this gets out of hand, we'll lose face and money, and suffer a huge loss." Yan Fugui glared at his family members and started calculating.
Yan Jiecheng was furious: "Dad, are you really trying to help her harm people by blocking us from reporting Jia Zhangshi for extortion?"
"Duh, we'll just pretend..." Yan Fugui called his family home. What's all the commotion in the middle of the night? Go to sleep.
It was well past midnight, and quite a few people in the Sihe Fortress of Wuyetian were still awake.
Over here, in order to trick Banggeng into drugging Wuniang, Jia Zhangshi took out tea leaves from the tea box and brewed a pot. While drinking it, she said, "My dear grandson Banggeng, I was blinded by greed before and failed to fulfill my responsibilities as a grandmother."
From now on, Grandma will truly mend her ways. Look, this is the new tea Grandma bought. Take it to Fifth Aunt later and apologize to her for Grandma.
"Grandma, are you sure you want to give this to her?" Banggeng was delighted to accept the task after seeing that she had personally brewed and drunk the tea. It was a small favor to try and get something back before giving the gift, but it also proved that the tea was fine.
