Hey! The Criminal Assistance System Can Even Be Used Like This? 194

Her words were sharp and calm, causing the three who were still speaking to momentarily freeze.

“I was just joking…” The young man said impatiently, “You’re taking it too seriously.”

The woman looked at him with a cold sneer, “Is it because I hit too close to home, huh!”

The middle-aged man was about to speak, but a cold and piercing glance from the woman silenced him.

“We’re just doing this for your own good…” the middle-aged woman said.

The woman, referred to as Xiao Wan, fixed her gaze on her. “For my good! Then get lost! All of you, get lost! Otherwise, I might just go crazy and expose all of you, along with those damned jokes, to the whole world!”

The middle-aged man reached out as if to strike the woman, but was stopped by Feng Jie, who was wearing a mask.

The middle-aged man tried to say something else, but the police officers moved in to frown and mediate.

In the end, the couple left with the man, who said they had broken up before walking away.

The woman let out a heavy sigh of relief.

In truth, she had been enduring it all along, listening to her parents and thinking that she should get married, which was why she was dating this man who they considered the best for her.

To her surprise, when the topic of having children came up, he said that if they didn’t have a boy, they should just keep trying.

He wanted her to give birth like a pig, churning out one litter after another, to ensure their lineage continued.

One or two children wouldn’t do; they wanted at least three or four, five or six wouldn’t be too many for them.

She was particularly distressed, yet he just laughed it off as a joke.

When she got home and told her parents, she only received a barrage of insults.

She felt as if the world had cast her aside, as if no one understood her, like she was a freak.

Thus, when she stood by the lake, the thought of ending it all surfaced in her mind.

In the end, she was saved and poured out the water from her mind into the lake.

Xu Zhizhi approached the woman, “It’s okay. Their understanding is one-dimensional, and their thoughts are selfish; they have nothing to do with you.”

“Mm,” the woman nodded slightly.

She felt that she should grow up and learn to live for herself.

Xu Zhizhi saw the hope kindling in the depths of her eyes; she saw the truth and the power of life.

She slightly parted her lips, even if the warmth was false, she would still immerse herself in the role.

So what of it? The warmth was ultimately fake, and all those plots and schemes were inherently false.

What was real was her; she wouldn’t lose herself or be manipulated into fulfilling the system’s ideas because of some hints.

If the woman’s situation was the same, then no matter what, it could only confuse her temporarily.

As Xu Zhizhi was contemplating, seven or eight people walked into the police station outside.

They hurried in while carrying a bag.

One of them held a transparent bag that contained the skull Xu Zhizhi had brought up.

The three of them took a glance and were then escorted to leave.

As they walked out the door, the woman introduced herself, “My name is Li Wanwan.”

The three chatted for a bit, mainly Xu Zhizhi and Feng Jie comforting each other.

After a few minutes, Xu Zhizhi got into the car and left.

After a heart-stopping night, the next day Xu Zhizhi went to work as usual.

The skeleton dug up had no connection to Xu Zhizhi, and the subsequent events would probably have nothing to do with her, so she didn’t need to do much.

What surprised Xu Zhizhi, however, was that the next day, Li Wanwan appeared on the set.

The moment Xu Zhizhi saw her, she marveled at how small the world was.

Li Wanwan walked over to Xu Zhizhi and said, “Zhizhi, I’ve decided to be myself again, so please take care of me from now on!”

Xu Zhizhi was puzzled.

Feng Jie was confused as well.

“Let me introduce myself, I’m the screenwriter for this film.”

She said.
