After being forced into a marriage of convenience, a master of metaphysics manipulates a cold and al

Faced with Dongfang Wen's request, Yu Anqi remained silent, only looking at Ye Bai with a rather intriguing expression on her pretty face.

Tong Yan panicked and quickly explained, "Director, Ye Bai is my friend. He came to see me. He's not some shady character, much less a con artist..."

If Ye Bai were to be kicked out, it would be a huge joke.

Although Qin Wanqing wouldn't complain about this little thing, she would definitely make fun of her countless times.

"Xiao Tong, you're now the deputy director of Jingzhou TV Station, a person of status, so you need to be even more careful about who you make friends with!"

"I'm doing this for your own good. Hanging out with those idle people in society will only do you harm, you know? If you're not careful, it could ruin your future!"

Dongfang Wen began to earnestly persuade him, appearing to be entirely concerned for Tong Yan's well-being.

“Master Dongfang, I appreciate your kindness, but I’m not a child anymore. I know what kind of friends I should make.”

Tong Yan shook her head, feeling utterly disgusted, but unable to express it.

In terms of personality, she was much gentler than Qin Wanqing, unlike the other woman who would turn into a tigress at the slightest disagreement.

More importantly, Dongfang Wen is her direct superior, and unless she doesn't plan to work at Jingzhou TV Station anymore, she can't afford to offend him.

A leader is a leader because he or she holds the power to decide the fate of his or her subordinates.

After being publicly rebuked by Tong Yan in a way that was neither too gentle nor too harsh, Dongfang Wen's expression grew increasingly unpleasant.

Finally, he could only glare at Yu Anqi with a livid face and say, "Captain Yu, is this how you serve the people?"

"I'm sorry, Director of Oriental TV, this Mr. Ye is here to visit a friend and has not broken any laws or regulations, so it's not within our jurisdiction. Besides, your TV station doesn't have any regulations prohibiting non-staff members from visiting relatives and friends, does it?"

Yu Anqi finally spoke, but she shook her head decisively.

She had already given this old guy face, but he still insisted on taking advantage of her kindness, so she simply stopped indulging him.

Of course, there's also the most crucial point: she felt that Ye Bai's words just now had a hidden meaning, and that Dongfang Wen might have a problem.

Especially since the other party kept trying to get them to take Ye Bai away, it seemed like they were doing something wrong.

Having been a criminal investigator for so many years, her intuition has always been very accurate.

"Very well! So you think my word doesn't carry weight at the TV station anymore? Xiao Zhao, call security!"

Being rebuked by Tong Yan was bad enough, but for Yu Anqi, a mere team leader, to dare to disrespect him made Dongfang Wen so angry that his hands trembled. He then instructed the staff member accompanying him to call the security department.

The staff member had no courage to disobey orders, so he quickly took out his phone and did as instructed.

"...I'm telling you, Director Dongfang, there are police here, so why are you asking security guards? Isn't that putting the cart before the horse? And I can tell you clearly that what happens next is beyond the control of security guards; only the police can handle it."

Ye Bai did not stop him, but slowly began to speak again.

"Ye Bai, what exactly happened?"

At this moment, Tong Yan also realized that something was wrong and asked in a low voice.

Based on her understanding of Ye Bai, although he was sometimes unreliable, he wasn't the type to act recklessly.

There must be a reason why they are targeting Dongfangwen today.

"Yes, Ye... Conan, stop keeping me in suspense."

Yu Anqi also started to urge him on impatiently. She had other cases to handle and didn't have much time to waste here.

She subconsciously wanted to call him "Ye Broom Star," but later found that the name felt insulting, so she simply changed it.

Anyway, there's no difference. Conan is the kind of kid who causes deaths wherever he goes, just like Ye Bai.

"……Fine."

Ye Bai smacked his lips, somewhat unsatisfied.

He could have easily outmaneuvered the arrogant director of the Oriental TV station, but Tong Yan and Yu Anqi were too eager, so he decided to cure them first.

"Weren't we looking for the culprit behind the wooden snake statue? Now we don't need to bother anymore, it was this Director Dongfang who did it!"

Ye Bai's words were earth-shattering.

Tong Yan was completely dumbfounded, her rosy little mouth wide open enough to fit a sausage!

Yu Anqi's pretty face flashed with a look of sudden realization, but she was still puzzled.

"Bullshit! You little bastard, you're slandering me! I'm going to sue you for defamation! Captain Fish, what are you waiting for? He's already broken the law and committed a crime, why aren't you arresting him right now?"

Dongfang Wen jumped up and started cursing at Ye Bai.

Because he was so excited, the station director's originally meticulous hairstyle became messy, revealing a patch of baldness on the top of his head...

There's no way around it; at this age, he's still lusting after women and has a lot of ulterior motives, so he can only take the "bald but stronger" route.

"Deputy Director Tong, what kind of friends do you have? How dare you slander Director Dongfang? Are you afraid you haven't courted death enough?"

"This guy is incredibly audacious! He must be arrested and brought to justice!"

Several staff members next to Dongfang Wen were also indignant and began to criticize him.

"Ye Bai, you can't just say things like that; you need evidence."

Seeing the scene suddenly become chaotic, Yu Anqi quickly gave Ye Bai a wink and said something.

If Dongfang Wen were just an ordinary person, it wouldn't matter, but the other party's identity is what it is.

If Ye Bai can't produce conclusive evidence in the end, it will definitely be a big problem.

"This magic snake wood has a fragrance, you should all be able to smell it, right? Don't worry, although this scent has a hallucinogenic effect, it won't cause hallucinations as long as you don't inhale a large amount."

Ye Bai took out the wooden snake statue and waved it around in front of everyone.

"Didn't we already smell it before?"

Yu Anqi was somewhat puzzled, and Tong Yan was even more confused about what Ye Bai was trying to say.

Dongfang Wen suddenly shouted with a gloomy expression, "Captain Yu, Xiao Tong, don't you understand yet? This kid is the real culprit. He's about to use Southeast Asian sorcery to hypnotize you, making you confused about right and wrong!"

Upon hearing the word "evil magic," Yu Anqi and Tong Yan remained unfazed, but the other police officers' expressions changed drastically. They quickly took a few steps back, and their right hands instinctively reached for their waists.

Fortunately, Yu Anqi reacted quickly and immediately waved her hand to stop the actions of these team members.

She believed that Ye Bai wouldn't use such methods to harm them, otherwise there would be no need for him to go to such lengths.

Not to mention Tong Yan, she has always had unwavering faith in Ye Bai.

“Director Dongfang, don’t waste your energy. Take out those two bottles of medicine you have on you. If I’m not mistaken, one of them is the antidote for ‘Phantom Serpent Wood,’ and the other is the ‘Spring Water’ that you asked Li Decai to buy from the ghost market…”

Ye Bai said lightly.
