Chapter 722: Do You Know Omnipotent Boss’s Superpower?
Qin Shuang hurriedly explained. Cen Bai smiled and did not speak. It was unknown if he believed her or not.
On the other side, Jing Fei’s worry was different from that of the two of them.
Yan Zhifeng was involved in this case. He insisted that Qin Shuang had cast a demonic spell and even deliberately brought up stuff like raising ghosts that he’d heard from others.
Jing Fei was afraid that he would go out and say something that he should not say, so he had already changed his memory. However, no matter what, it had to conform to reality, so what changed was memories about Qin Shuang that he could not speak of.
From Qin Shuang having a special power to silence people, he changed it to Qin Shuang using a poisonous powder that made people unable to speak.
As for the three bodyguards, they had already had their memories changed. However, the three of them still could not speak. There was indeed something to it.
Jing Fei originally did not want to pay attention to the reporters outside, but the staff said, “Boss, if we don’t quickly resolve this matter, the matter might blow up. After all, that Yan Zhifeng also has fans. It’s popularity on Weibo is rising. Although we’ve controlled it, if we suppress it too much, there will clearly be a problem. Hence, we can only control the trending searches to around 50 places. This matter has to be closed as soon as possible, or there will be huge trouble.”
Jing Fei rubbed his temples.
Most of the espers’ matters and cases would be handled quietly.
For example, in the case of Liu Zhao from Huaxia University, although it was later found that it was Gu Yunqing who did it, it was still reported that she took drugs and jumped down by herself. It had never changed.
Hence, everyone hated it when the espers happened to be celebrities.
Any slight movement of a celebrity would generate public opinion, and that would not help Jing Fei control the truth. Just like now, Yan Zhifeng had blown things up.
To others, no matter what, the truth became serious, with Qin Shuang said to have poisoned people.
There was a difference between poisoning and using a special power to silence others!
Even if those three people’s throats were treated, Qin Shuang would probably be punished according to the law. That would be troublesome.
The person who came in to report said, “Yan Zhifeng also said that he saw the three bodyguards being called to the police station from the hospital. He said that Qin Shuang’s backer must be protecting her and intends to deal with her in a low-profile manner and settle things peacefully. Now, those reporters are clamoring for us to deal with her impartially!”
Jing Fei frowned. “I’ll go out and take a look.”
Seeing how his head was aching, Xue Xi knew that this matter was not easy to handle.
She simply followed behind Jing Fei. “I’ll accompany you.”
After she left, Xiang Huai, who was only supposed to be a tagalong, naturally would not stay here. He also slowly followed behind her.
Jing Fei rushed out to deal with the reporters.
Xue Xi lowered her head and pondered.
Xiang Huai looked at her and smiled. “This case is actually not difficult.”
Xue Xi paused and looked at him. “Mhm?”
Xiang Huai said, “Based on my understanding of Fang Yi, she won’t leave such a huge loophole and give others a chance to attack her. She’s very prideful.”
Since she cared about her face, she could not admit that she could not do it.
However, today, she openly said that she could not do it. This was profound.
A glint flashed across Xue Xi’s blank eyes.
Seeing that she seemed to have understood something, Xiang Huai smiled. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Xue Xi suddenly look up at him. “Do you know the special department very well?”
Xiang Huai raised an eyebrow. “So-so.”
Then, he saw the little kid suddenly grab his hand and stop him from moving forward. The two of them paused and distanced themselves from Jing Fei.
Xiang Huai lowered his head and looked at her soft hands. The girl’s hands were fair and delicate. When she pulled him, they felt soft and easy to pinch.
He pinched it and saw the little kid look around. After confirming that there was no one around, she suddenly tiptoed.
This…
Xiang Huai froze.
Could it be that since he had given the little kid a hint, she wanted to reward him?
In the special department, people were always coming and going. It’s not okay to do it here.
As he thought this, he lowered his head and closed his eyes. Then—
He felt the little kid move closer to his ear. When she spoke, her breath sprayed on his skin. “Then, let me ask you a question.”
Xiang Huai: “?”
Suppressing the ripples in his heart, he coughed. “Speak.”
Xue Xi: “Do you know Omnipotent Boss… who is also the boss of this special department? What is his special power?”
Xiang Huai: “????”
