Hey! The Criminal Assistance System Can Even Be Used Like This? 127

Her temper and personality couldn’t be compared; she wisely didn’t want to challenge that. However, when it came to appearance, she felt she still had a glimmer of hope. Of course, feeling a bit guilty, she didn’t ask others and privately inquired with her assistant instead.

“Of course, you’re pretty,” the assistant replied immediately.

The world is vast, but the financier is the greatest. When Ning Yuehua heard her prompt and decisive answer, she pursed her lips, “Forget it, asking you is just self-deprecation; you are my assistant, so of course you’d say that.”

Assistant: ???

Has her employer gone crazy again?

“You’re the prettiest; I speak the truth,” she tentatively said.

Ning Yuehua shot her a glance, “Don’t bother with lies, I know I’m not as good-looking as Xu Zhizhi.”

Assistant: …Just as I thought, she’s gone crazy again. Since you know, why even ask? Being a worker is so hard.

Ning Yuehua noticed her assistant’s expression and reflected on how many times she had thrown a fit in the past year, feeling a bit guilty. After Xu Zhizhi punished Wang Mingsheng, her mood improved a lot, and she had gotten out of her previous state of mind somewhat. Looking back at herself now, she felt completely neurotic.

After a moment’s hesitation, she awkwardly said, “You’ve worked hard this past year…”

“No… it’s not hard at all…” the assistant replied helplessly, internally lamenting her misfortunes. It’s hard to explain the feeling of having a neurotic boss!

Not that she was criticizing Ning Yuehua, but the truth was that she indeed had some form of bipolar disorder!

Listening to the voice by her side, Ning Yuehua sensed that this response was insincere. She bowed her head, thinking for a moment, “When we get back, I’ll give you a raise—an extra five thousand a month.”

“Ah!” The assistant froze, her phoenix eyes widening in surprise as she stared at Ning Yuehua and finally reacted, grinning, “Thank you, Ning Jie!”

Ning Yuehua looked at her phone interface and softly said “Mm.” She decided to fully cooperate with the doctor for treatment when she returned home for filming. If Wang Mingsheng didn’t die, he would eventually come back to the country, and she would certainly find a way to bring him to justice.

All of this should be credited to Xu Zhizhi; she was the one who saved her life.

Xu Zhizhi sneezed and immediately received a message from Qin Su. He rarely sent her an impressive emoji, clearly as a middleman he had received news about Xu Zhizhi’s actions. Xu Zhizhi picked up her phone and sent him a cute emoji back, indicating that everything was basically settled, and there was no need to worry.

Qin Su replied that was good, ending this brief conversation. Xu Zhizhi smiled as she put her phone away. They would be returning to the country in two days.

For safety’s sake, Lin Guo had even booked the plane tickets early and arranged for a security company to escort them. Based on this premise, Lin Guo became stricter with Ning Yuehua’s requirements, hoping she could finish filming the remaining few scenes quickly.

Ning Yuehua didn’t complain; she gritted her teeth and persisted in her acting. While Xu Zhizhi rested nearby, she would occasionally remind her.

With fewer of those with ulterior motives around the filming location, the crew felt much more at ease, and everyone’s morale improved significantly. The uncertainty that once flooded her eyes was replaced with focused thoughts and calculations, making those who saw her feel a chill and a strong instinct to avoid her.

As expected, under Ye Xin’s scrutiny, Lin Sisi struggled to deliver her lines to the male lead. Lin Sisi understood that if she didn’t achieve satisfactory results this time, she would face severe consequences.

However, she gave no hint of her dire situation to those around her because she knew that to gain something, one had to sacrifice something else. If she wanted to dismantle the entire crime syndicate, she had to act as an insider, returning all the evidence and pinpointing their location so that the joint law enforcement could eradicate them all.

Under the watchful gaze of Ye Xin and others, she quietly coordinated with her teammates, successfully completing the handover, then watching as her police boyfriend found an opportunity to leave.

This filming operation was urgent; the responses from both sides were only a fleeting moment. The male lead disguised himself, mingling into the crowd and disappearing, narrowly evading capture, while Lin Sisi, without a doubt, was captured.

Because she let the big fish go, ending up with no gains made the mission intolerable for the fraud syndicate. The most critical moment was when one henchman disclosed that he recognized the identity of that big fish—it was the police.

Lin Sisi was immediately seized and dragged into a van. The male lead attempted to save her but was firmly blocked by teammates lurking in the shadows.

Thus, all filming scenes in T Country were completed. After announcing the final take, thunderous applause erupted at the venue. Everyone’s face glowed with joy because they could finally return home.

With threats via phone and ** threats, along with being abroad, everyone felt a significant lack of security. After so many days of diligent work, they finally concluded everything successfully, leaving everyone emotionally relieved.

Xu Zhizhi also felt happy. You never truly appreciate how good it is at home until you can’t go back; now that she could return, the sense of happiness surged up immediately.

The wrap-up happened in the afternoon, and their flight was in the evening. So, after the applause, everyone quickly began gathering their things and preparing their luggage for check-in.

Feng Jie and Yun Ziwei pushed four suitcases while the crew arranged for two buses. Lin Guo was extremely busy handling luggage check-in and equipment logistics.

On the way to the airport, he sat at the front of the bus. Xu Zhizhi sat behind him, sensing Lin Guo seemed a bit nervous. It appeared he was afraid something might go wrong at the last moment.

In the past half month, he had been on high alert. From passively receiving threatening texts to actively making a move, it showed he was very invested in the safety of the crew. Of course, that concern wasn’t as intense as it would be during filming; otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken the risk to come.

The bus arrived at the airport without incident. Everyone happily disembarked, retrieved their luggage, and headed for check-in.

With a flight at nine o’clock, they arrived at seven-thirty and completed all procedures by eight-fifteen. While waiting in the departure lounge, Xu Zhizhi could hear sighs of relief coming from others one after another.

Then it was time to board, and they took their seats. Lin Guo generously bought first-class tickets for Xu Zhizhi and the other leading actors.

It was quiet and comfortable, the service excellent. Finally, the plane took off, and after a while, Xu Zhizhi looked out the window. There was a beautiful crescent moon in the sky.

At the same time, she contemplated that the virus software should have been sent out by now. The virus software was set to send at specific intervals, with the goal of completely crippling the rival’s online gambling sites, which would also impact other types of gambling platforms run by their associates.

Previously, it had only been small-scale harassment; now it was a full-blown attack. Timing it out, in a few minutes, it should be completely overwhelming.

Combined with the AI-simulated recovery of the laundered funds, they had recouped nearly 120 million in fraud losses this time. Moreover, with the subsequent joint crackdown on these dens, they were sure to recover even more.

On this trip, she wouldn’t say it was without its rewards. Xu Zhizhi thought of this and revealed a satisfied smile.

The only regret was regarding Wang Mingsheng; she always felt he hadn’t been taken away and killed by Chris. She tried searching online but found no traces of him, so she gave up.

But then she thought, if that guy dared to come back home, he would definitely be caught, so she stopped pursuing it. The experiences during this time had been too intense, and as she pondered further, Xu Zhizhi lay back in her seat and slowly closed her eyes, falling into a deep sleep.

Lin Guo had originally planned to speak a few words to Xu Zhizhi but saw she was asleep and decided against it. Others, like Xu Zhizhi, soon fell asleep after a while.

It wasn’t until meal service began that Xu Zhizhi w
