"You, who are you? Why are you burning my things?!"

Yang Meili's hands were handcuffed and she struggled to rush over.

Su Chen looked down at her and said calmly, "You don't have the aura of a sorcerer. Who gave you this talisman? What benefits did you promise to give it?"

"You didn't originally look like this, did you? It's the backlash of the spell you used, right? If you keep using it, you won't live for many more years."

"...I, I don't know what you're talking about."

Yang Meili refused to admit it, saying that she was able to live a life that defied fate because she was smart at the beginning, otherwise she would not have been able to marry the son of a restaurant owner.

So what if she is down and out now? She has lived a fulfilling life. If that man hadn't died young, she wouldn't have to work so hard. It would have been so much more comfortable for her to stay at home.

The police didn't understand what they said, but they caught the thief and took him back to the police station.

When the old woman saw the person coming out, she was stunned: "Where did this person come from? When did he come to live in my house?"

Zhou Lan briefly recounted the incident and comforted her softly, "Auntie is fine now. The man has been apprehended. We should go back now."

A few people walked out of the door and the door next to them opened.

A little girl came out, blinking her eyes. "Master Su, is that you? I just saw the advertisement for your elevator in the live broadcast room. It's from our community."

Su Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at her steadily.

"Master Su, you have used up all the three hexagrams today. Can I wait until tomorrow? I...I saw a ghost and I was so scared."

"Oh, it didn't hurt you, did it."

Qi Yan was surprised and asked, "Master, how did you know? Yes, ever since I lived in this house, something has been harassing me, but it hasn't hurt me."

"It seems like you are deliberately trying to scare me. What should I do now? Master Su, I will give you money. Can you help me take a look?"

Su Chen took out a talisman and handed it over: "Put it under the pillow. Ask the landlord to come over tomorrow. Your house is... a slum, and someone died there. You can get the rent back and buy another one."

"What? Going from one room to another, and people even died there."

"Well, you carry a ghostly aura and the smell of inferior decoration materials. If you live here for two more months, you're bound to get leukemia."

Qi Yan gasped, her hands trembling as she transferred the money. After swiping the gift, she continued, "Then I'll go find the landlord tomorrow. If he doesn't refund my rent..."

Su Chen pointed at the person next to him and said softly, "It's easy to solve. If they don't return it, call the police. They deliberately concealed the fact that someone had died in this house, and they also didn't mention the dangers of visiting other rooms."

"He's broken the law, and I don't have the guts to stand still. It's much safer to expose him after he's gone."

"...Yes, if you have any questions, please contact the police. Our area code is XXX."

Qi Yan nodded repeatedly and said happily, "Okay, I'll remember that. Master Su has transferred the money to you. Thank you very much."

Su Chen nodded, and the few of them went straight into the elevator.

The police looked at him curiously and said, "You say he is not a charlatan, right? What he said sounded weird. You say he is a charlatan, but his demeanor doesn't seem like one."

"Ahem, what is this gentleman's occupation...?"

"Master of Metaphysics, my Taoist name is Mingchen. Just call me Master Su. It's simple and easy to remember."

Zhou Lan said respectfully, "Master Su, has my son's condition been completely resolved? Will he get sick again in the future?"

Su Chen thought for a moment and nodded, then said softly, "If the people behind this no longer target him, then of course there will be no problem. But if you're worried, you can buy a peace amulet for the child."

"Also, be more careful in the future. Don't bleed your hair or give your birth date and time to others casually. If you are arranged to have a ghost marriage, you won't know how you died."

"Your son's face is indeed prone to giving rise to evil thoughts. You should be more careful."

Zhou Lan nodded repeatedly and said hurriedly, "I understand. I'll tell my son when I get back. I believe he'll learn his lesson this time and won't dare give things away carelessly again."

Su Chen nodded and said nothing more.

The four of them went downstairs and walked towards the road. A policeman hesitated and said, "Master, where do you live? If it's convenient for you, you can take the police car and go along with us."
