Chapter 249 Master Yan ran into trouble and was exposed in public. His face turned pale and then red, like a spilled palette.
The group of "metaphysical experts" behind him were also collectively embarrassed. Some looked down to study the floor patterns, while others looked up at the sky and pretended to observe "feng shui," wishing they could just disappear on the spot.
The old lady was so angry that her hands trembled. She pointed at Master Yan and said, "So there's no ghost in this house at all, and you're all just pretending to be ghosts to scare me?!"
"Madam, there must be some misunderstanding here," Master Yan said, trying to appear calm.
"Didn't you hear the noise in your house quite early at night? We're really here to help you solve your problem!"
Master Yan stepped forward, attempting to pull Ji Shuyun aside.
He lowered his voice, his words carrying a sinister threat: "Young people, when you're out in the world, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
"Some waters are not for you to wade into; be careful not to get yourself into trouble!"
Instead of backing down, Ji Shuyun curled up a faint, cold smile and asked casually, "Oh? Are you threatening me?"
When Master Yan saw that he was "not taking it seriously," he completely abandoned all pretense of civility: "So what if I threaten you? Let me tell you, I have connections!"
As he spoke, he winked at someone behind him.
The group of "masters" who were originally feeling awkward seemed to have received a signal and immediately surrounded them, each with an unfriendly expression, trying to create a sense of oppression with their numbers.
Ji Shuyun was waiting for these words.
Under Master Yan's stern gaze, he calmly pulled out his identification from his pocket, flashing it with practiced ease.
On the deep blue cover, the police badge reflects a majestic light under the lamp.
“Very good.” His voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable force. “I am a police officer. Your threatening remarks just now, combined with your previous fraudulent activities, form a complete chain of evidence.”
His gaze sharpened as he swept over the crowd whose expressions had drastically changed: "I am now formally informing you all that you are suspected of organized fraud and threatening law enforcement officers."
Before she could finish speaking, Xia Zhining had already raised her phone, the screen displaying the recording interface: "All the amazing performances from when the fairy turtle landed until now are saved here!"
She waved the screen of the call in progress, her tone light but her words piercing: "The Yuncheng police have been mobilized."
"Also, a reminder: the total amount involved in the cases of these masters is as high as millions, and none of them can escape."
Upon hearing Xia Zhining's words, everyone in the hall gasped.
"Police, police?!"
"Involving millions?!"
These two words exploded in the living room like a thunderclap, and the masters were instantly thrown into a panic.
Upon hearing that it would be treated as a "gang crime,"...
The metaphysical group, which had just been united in their hatred of the enemy, immediately fell apart, scrambling to point fingers at each other in order to protect themselves:
"Officer! Master Yan forced us to do it! I was just a gofer!"
"Nonsense! The idea of using talismans to scam money was yours! You even tore the yellow paper used for the talismans from your son's homework!"
"That's still better than you! The century-old cinnabar you're holding in your bottle is just ketchup. I saw you steal it from the kitchen with my own eyes!"
...
Seeing the chaotic scene of dogs fighting each other, Feline finally let out her pent-up anger and shouted, "Butler! Lock the door! Don't let any of these swindlers get away until the police arrive!"
These swindlers have been deceiving my grandmother for so long, but their true colors have finally been exposed!
When the old lady heard that Ji Shuyun was a policeman, her eyes widened instantly, and she even forgot to turn the prayer beads in her hand.
Seeing the situation was turning sour, Fei Lin's cousin, Zhang Xian, immediately put on his dramatic act, jumping up and pointing at the group of masters, tearfully distancing himself from them:
"Well, so it turns out you're all charlatans!"
