"Hmm." The woman nodded, realizing she wouldn't get anything useful out of Shi Xiaxia.
She didn't ask any more questions, but took out a bracelet from her body, placed it on the table, and explained, "This is a magical artifact that can sense part of cause and effect."
"Hmm." Shi Xiaxia had already sensed the causal power on the bracelet, but it was too weak and didn't seem to be of much use.
She guessed, "Is this a test to see if I'm lying?"
"Yes." The woman nodded, then raised her hand, gesturing for Shi Xiaxia to put on the bracelet.
Shi Xiaxia's lips curled slightly. With such a weak cause and effect, it would be very easy to deceive the past.
But this is at least related to her innocence, so Shi Xiaxia has no need to do this.
After putting on the bracelet, she sat down obediently without making any other unnecessary movements.
After she put on the bracelet, the woman formed a hand seal, and then Xiaxia saw the bracelet flash.
The woman asked, "Shi Xiaxia, did you use mystical methods to cause Shen Yuanshuang's death?"
"No."
Shi Xiaxia's gaze remained calm: "Her lifespan is nearing its end."
The bracelet is not responding.
The woman glanced at Shi Xiaxia a couple more times but didn't say anything. She had read the information before coming and could naturally deduce that Shen Yuanshuang's lifespan was not long.
She then continued to ask about Yu Cang, and Shi Xiaxia answered truthfully, with the bracelet showing no other reaction.
The woman withdrew the hand seal, took a quick breath, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and gestured for Shi Xiaxia to remove the bracelet.
After Shi Xiaxia took off the bracelet, the woman took it and left the interrogation room.
About half an hour later, a policeman came and opened the door, saying to Shi Xiaxia, "You can leave now."
Shi Xiaxia stood up and walked outside.
She had only taken a few steps outside the door when Qiao Zihao rushed over, asking worriedly, "Xiaxia! Are you alright? Why are you out so late?!"
"it's okay no problem."
Shi Xiaxia glanced at Murong Quan, who was still standing next to Su Yueke, and gave them a reassuring smile.
The group then left the police station together.
......
Two days later, the police had investigated everything and released the truth online, giving special thanks to Shi Xiaxia for her bravery.
After seeing the whole story, Shi Xiaxia fell into deep thought.
She has dealt with several cases related to luck. On the surface, they all involve ordinary people who have learned to use luck to improve their fortune. In reality, however, someone is deliberately spreading these methods.
The mastermind behind this is spreading these methods to cover something up.
Today, the number of various methods of borrowing luck circulating in society and the number of people using them must have reached an astonishing figure!
Even if she wanted to investigate, there was no way to do so, so Shi Xiaxia could only put those questions aside.
......
Shi Xiaxia received numerous thank-you notices from the police, making it difficult for her not to become famous.
The directors were delighted with this free advertising and generously added more scenes for Shi Xiaxia.
After handling Yu Cang's case, Shi Xiaxia and the others officially joined the film crew and began filming.
......
The filming process has resumed as planned.
However, just a few days later, the yin energy in the film crew began to intensify, and many evil spirits gathered there.
Before filming began, Shi Xiaxia had seen the crew members and found no major problems, so she assumed they had just gathered there by chance.
They used some talismans to shield these evil spirits and prevent them from getting close to the film crew.
However, simply blocking it within the film crew wasn't very effective. Some people who frequently needed to go out were affected and suffered some misfortune.
Shi Xiaxia only took this matter to heart after hearing about it so many times.
She didn't have any scenes to film today, and originally planned to go directly to investigate, but after noticing that Murong Quan was in danger of bloodshed today, she decided to deal with his matter first and then investigate the specific reason.
As evening approached, there was one last scene to be performed.
This scene depicts the female lead, Ni Qingzhou, encountering Qiao Zihao, who plays a petty thug, on her way home. Murong Quan, who plays the male lead, appears, saves the female lead, and scares Qiao Zihao away.
Because of his ghostly identity, Murong Quan needs to be suspended by wires at all times.
After everything was prepared, filming officially began.
Shi Xiaxia watched intently, so that she could act immediately should anything happen.
"Wow! Pretty girl!"
A thug, reeking of alcohol, with brightly colored hair and dressed in what he considered trendy tattered clothes, staggered toward Ni Qingzhou.
Ni Qingzhou glanced at the thug, clutched her handbag tightly, and ignored him, but her hurried steps revealed that she was only pretending to be calm.
"Hey! I'm calling you! Are you deaf?"
The thug smashed the bottle in his hand with a "bang" and walked menacingly toward Ni Qingzhou, yelling, "Stop right there!"
Ni Qingzhou realized something was wrong. At that moment, she didn't care about anything else and started running quickly, trying to shake off the drunken thugs who were acting crazy.
But Ni Qingzhou was just a girl, and even though she was young, she couldn't outrun a tall, long-legged thug.
She was so nervous and scared when she was about to be caught that she accidentally stepped on something.
"Ah!" Ni Qingzhou screamed and fell to the ground. Her delicate legs and arms were scraped and cut, and countless drops of blood immediately seeped out.
Her low-heeled leather shoes were also thrown aside.
"Don't come here!"
Ni Qingzhou threatened the thugs in a trembling voice, but without any real threat: "If you come any closer, I'll call the police!"
"Call the police?!"
The thug wasn't afraid at all. He came to Ni Qingzhou's side, squatted down, and brought his alcohol-covered face close to her.
He said slowly, "Go ahead and call! Call whatever you want! This is a no-man's-land! Even if you call the police, they probably won't dare to come!"
Ni Qingzhou's tears instantly streamed down her face. She frantically rummaged through her bag, trying to bargain with the thug: "What do you want?! What do you want?! Money?! I'll give you all my money! Please don't hurt me!"
"You're so beautiful, how could I bear to hurt you?"
The thug chuckled, "There's a bar over there. Come in and have a couple of drinks with me, and I'll let you go. How about it?!"
"I'm not going... I'm not going..."
Ni Qingzhou had heard about that bar from her colleague. She said that incidents often happened there, and many naive girls were lured in, but many of them never came out alive.
Ni Qingzhou was filled with regret. She shouldn't have saved money on bus fare and taken the shortcut to get here; otherwise, none of this would have happened...
Ni Qingzhou was now in despair; she knew that no one could save her now...
