At that moment, it was pure joy, even if I didn't want to involve him, he would insist on helping for free.

Wen Yan watched Chen Tao leave in a hurry. He lay down, continuing to crunch on a green date.

Alright, the expert has gone, and the expert also said that this is not really a request for a title, just something similar, and it's not directly costing anything, so the problem isn't particularly serious. Therefore, he wasn't too worried.

Since he finally came, he should take this chance to relax.

Wen Yan figured out the time, and Chen Tao had arrived at Virtue City. It would probably be at least another six hours. He called Feng Wei to ask if he and Tong Si wanted to come for a bath.

A few hours later, Wen Yan, along with others, took the Nether Path from Old Zhao's Basement and surfaced while Chen Tao was close to arriving at Virtue City.

He leisurely strolled over to the Scorching Sun Department in Virtue City, where only a few people remained, mostly retirees.

Ever since the last incident in Virtue City, all kinds of different races have been avoiding it.

All the well-informed ghosts know that in Virtue City's main streets, there are cameras that can capture ghosts. If you calculate based on the proportion of total cameras, it should surpass all other cities in Nanwu County and even exceed Yu State.

When Wen Yan arrived, Feng Yao had finished questioning. Everything was asked, even the unnecessary ones were clarified.

The only thing that hasn't been traced yet is who the person buying user face data is.

Everything else has been basically clarified.

After listening, Wen Yan let out a long sigh.

"It's the first time I've wanted to hang someone from a lamppost like this."

"I also want to hang that boss from a lamppost.

Unfortunately, that coward cares more for money than life.

I need to find a way to hang his money on the lamppost instead.

Otherwise, I can't swallow this anger.

If you hadn't discovered the problem early and insisted on investigating further.

By the time the matter would escalate, his false testimony could truly lead to a big misunderstanding.

Although Chen Tao of the Hemp Robe Sect has average martial talent, he represents the Hemp Robe Sect and is proficient in other aspects."

"So, now that everything is completely clear, it's just an accidental incident?" Wen Yan asked once more.

"Yes, it's just an accidental incident. The only person worth focusing on is the one who bought user facial data.

If we can't track them down in a day, they're definitely not a simple character.

The way information is transmitted is most likely through the Server Domain.

We've quietly set up servers and reconnected them in the several forums previously using the Server Domain.

There is quite a bit of valuable information inside.

As for other things, some interfaces haven't been reconnected for now as it's uncertain if it's appropriate.

For the rest, those that need to be caught have been caught, and those that will be awarded a spot in the Luxury Furnace are basically just being approved —likely won't need approval again before the year's end."

"Alright, you guys continue to investigate." Wen Yan leaned back in his chair, feeling completely relieved.

Since returning from Miracle World, the constant sense of discomfort has finally faded a bit.

He absent-mindedly flipped through the Nanwu Chat Group, looking at the cases there, and his anxiety subsided gradually.

Both the Fourth Great-uncle Master and Feng Yao were right, he did encounter many incidents, and many were troublesome, but this just means that heavy crime units tend to face major cases.

Actually, major cases represent only a small fraction of the total.

Wen Yan rested for a while, and when Chen Tao arrived, he took Chen Tao and Tong Si to the hospital to visit Big Sister Ye.

At the hospital, Tong Si checked and confirmed that Big Sister Ye didn't have any major issues, her condition wasn't much changed, just some minor injuries.

Chen Tao, the representative of the Hemp Robe Sect, personally inspected and said Big Sister Ye just had a slightly weakened spirit, still within normal fluctuations.

His earlier hypothesis was correct. Big Sister Ye's ordeal seemed like a quest for a title but wasn't; it was more like she was altering the fate of a deceased person, not requiring any significant sacrifice.

As for the subsequent matters, Chen Tao had solutions.

Then, he wanted to take a disciple, the ghost who altered the photo.

Because the adjustment matched perfectly with Chen Tao's criteria for taking on disciples, plus the ghost was a strong believer, which is very important.

Chen Tao also wanted to take Big Sister Ye as a disciple, but unfortunately, Big Sister Ye said she couldn't switch to another sect; she didn't elaborate, and Chen Tao wisely didn't pursue the matter further.

With everything settled, Wen Yan immediately called the curator.

"Hello, curator, yes, there's been a conclusion; it's just an accidental incident.

And the most important thing is that this matter didn't start the day I went to our unit!

Completely certain! Curator, don't be too superstitious!"

After hanging up the phone, Wen Yan felt much relieved.

Lying on the hospital bed, Big Sister Ye couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Wen Yan, saying these things is useless, you believe it or not, the curator will give you leave until next year. After the new year, the curator will still find an excuse to give you leave?"

"Big Sister Ye, let's be honest, does this have anything to do with me?"

"Indeed, it doesn't."

"Then it's settled."

"But the curator never said it had anything to do with you, he just mentioned that when you come, something might happen."

"..."

Big Sister Ye laughed heartily at Wen Yan's speechless expression.

"I've talked to Elder Brother Chen, invited him to take an advisor title at the external unit, so for future restorations, have him look it over first, just to be safe."

"This time was just bad luck, it's not like casually changing things will work, if that were the case, the neighboring country would've struck it rich long ago."

"It's better to be cautious. Anyway, such tasks aren't numerous, and when they do come up, having Elder Brother Chen take a look isn't much trouble."

"Have you talked to the curator about it?"

"I have, and the curator agreed readily, afraid of another incident arising."

"That's fine then." Big Sister Ye nodded, took out her phone, hesitated a bit, then said, "Wen Yan, I have a task that was originally scheduled for the end of the month, but I fear I can't be discharged now, and they won't allow me. Can you do me a favor?"

"Big Sister, feel free to ask."

"Can you go to Xiao Xiang County for me? Have you used up the hand cream I gave you?"

"That snake oil hand cream?"

"Yes."

"I haven't really used it much, should have some left."

"Then that's good, take it with you when you go."
