Chapter 672: From Today Onwards, You Live Alone
“Since you have already co, there is no reason to return empty-handed.”
I took the phone they respectfully handed back and said to the team of Security Bureau personnel.
“Yes! This Teaching Assistant, we will comply with any of your requests.”
The Squad Leader, who was in charge, imdiately adopted the posture of facing a superior.
This change was naturally completed in just an instant.
This was a Witch Academy Teaching Assistant!
Even the director of the Security Bureau would have to be polite...
Seeing such a drastic reversal in the attitude of the Security Bureau personnel, however... the ones with the biggest change in attitude were that "couple."
Perhaps they had no concept of Transcendent Witches who wielded Transcendent power, but they had the deepest fear of the Security Bureau!
After all, the deeper they understood what they would encounter, the more it could stimulate their fear of the consequences!
“Why are you not speaking? Where did the nerve to ask for tens of billions go? Didn't you yourselves call the Security Bureau?”
Looking at the two people who were now frozen, I opened my mouth to ask them at an opportune ti.
“Uh... Little Han...”
“Little Han? Hearing such an intimate na from your mouths... I only feel disgusted.”
I spoke sternly, cutting off their intention to cozy up to , and then turned my head to look at the Security Bureau personnel.
“Well, take them away.”
I said.
After all, if I had to do it myself, I was afraid of dirtying my hands.
Since they personally cut off the path of solving the problem with money, I would just proceed with procedural justice on the path they themselves had chosen.
After all, they were the ones who called the Security Bureau, and I was just turning them into "my people."
“No! You can’t do this... you can’t do this. We haven't done anything wrong! You can’t arrest us without cause! This is an abuse of power! I want to file a complaint against you!”
“Right! You can't treat us like this! We still have a newborn daughter! You can't do this!”
“Oh, if you hadn't ntioned it, I would have almost forgotten what charge to arrest you two on.”
I had no pity for their "sophistry."
“Can they be arrested first?”
“This...”
The Security Bureau Squad Leader only hesitated for a second before instantly becoming resolute, “Of course! May I ask what charge the Teaching Assistant would like to accuse them of?”
“Hmm... let think. There are quite a few. Dostic violence... not accurate, the sentencing is too light. How about child abuse of a minor? The one lying on the ground is their youngest son, and the slap mark on his face is just one piece of evidence of their child abuse. I think... he should cooperate with the investigation.”
I turned my head to look at Yang Yunhan, who was lying on the ground.
Seeing his current state, and my Heart Sense perception of his emotions, I felt that there was a fifty percent chance he would help.
Of course, the other fifty percent was his cowardice, making him unwilling to lose his parents, but that would require another potent dicine.
“The second charge is child trafficking. The woman who was just putting on a pitiful act said she had a newborn child to raise, but that child is not hers. They swapped the child of another family...”
“No! You’re talking nonsense! We would never...”
“Shut up. You two don't have the right to speak here.”
I said sternly, and then gave them both another Silence Spell.
But this ti, they were truly insane, to the point of losing all reason.
Even with the Silence Spell applied, they still wanted to pounce on and fight for their lives.
However, the few Security Bureau personnel nearby were perceptive and imdiately restrained them.
Otherwise, they would have to taste the Restraint Spell again.
“You can go and investigate. I have special ans to obtain the contact information of that child's original family. Just do a verification.”
I watched as a contact thod appeared before the eyes of the person who was taking notes.
It seed that the other family had not yet co looking for them.
“But the matter concerning the children is not over. There is also the child they dostically abused, he is not their biological child either.”
“And... . I was once a child in this family too, but I am also not their biological child. You understand what this ans, right?”
I spoke my last sentence to them with profound aning.
When the Security Bureau personnel heard this, the person in charge of recording nearly dropped her pen in shock!
The charges recorded earlier, the incidents, and even the fact that the first two children were not the focus... This matter was the major bombshell!
They finally understood why a perfectly fine Teaching Assistant would be encountered by them—it turned out to be a family tragedy!
This was not just an ordinary tragedy; it even implicated the Teaching Assistant herself!
They felt that it was a huge blessing to be able to quietly listen to the other party explain the whole process here.
If it were them, this house would have probably exploded on the spot.
This was a Teaching Assistant!
Nominally an existence on the sa level as a ntor!
Kidnapping children, child trading... these were the most common social conflicts the Security Bureau encountered.
Those lower-class individuals always caused them such trouble.
The Squad Leader glared at the middle-aged couple in front of her, her eyes practically spitting fire.
This ti, these two people had caused a huge problem for the Security Bureau!
If the outco of this matter did not satisfy this Teaching Assistant... their director would likely be restless.
More crucially...
Their Security Bureau clearly didn't have to get involved in this troubleso matter, but these two people insisted on being busybodies...
So, she felt that no one was more unlucky than her... bringing such trouble to the Security Bureau.
She felt the director would curse their entire family if he found out.
But at this mont, there was still one person silently lying on the ground.
One of the Security Bureau personnel stepped forward to help him up, only to stumble again and fall to the ground after hearing that he was also not the biological child of the parents...
He didn't think the other party was lying to him.
At least after his internal breakdown... he had recognized one fact: the "older brother," who was on such a vastly different level, had no need to lie to him... Ever since childhood, that older brother had never lied to him, yet he had always lived under the other's shadow.
From Yang Yunhan's perspective, if he wasn't their biological child either... then many things seed to make sense...
“Next is the woman I sealed and who is being held by my Big Sis Bai...”
Then, I pointed again to Big Sis Bai's location.
The Security Bureau personnel were sensible and cleared a path.
Soone whom a Teaching Assistant called "Big Sis Bai," was likely also a Teaching Assistant... Everyone muttered to themselves, only feeling that this matter was even more troubleso, with the ceiling directly reaching the level of two Teaching Assistants... but it also felt like having too many problems ant having nothing to worry about?
“This person is the tutor they hired for my pitiful, non-blood-related younger brother, but this tutor is not simple. You know about the Descending Sect, right?”
“I've heard of it... Is she a mber of the sect?”
The person recording tentatively asked.
“No, she is a Player, the existence endorsed by the Descending Sect, not a sect mber.”
As soon as I finished speaking, they gasped again!
The Descending Sect!
This was an erging evil illegal organization during this period, and a terrorist organization designated and announced by all Transcendent Academies.
They, the Security Bureau, could only act as support in the operations to eliminate mbers of this sect, let alone confronting the endorsed invader Players!
“You can't handle this person, so I will handle her on your behalf. Take a photo and organize the files. You don't need to worry about the rest.”
I said, and then pointed at the couple, “Then, check if they are mbers of the Descending Sect. It's highly suspicious that my brother, who is about to take the college entrance examination, would be uncharacteristically hired such a tutor by them right before the exam. This matter needs to be handled seriously.”
“Yes! We will handle it seriously!”
“And... I hope you will investigate whether they have done anything else, and enrich the charges. No need to fabricate charges without basis.”
“Yes.”
The Security Bureau Squad Leader quickly nodded.
Although their Security Bureau did not have the authority to do the last request... people were flexible, weren't they?
Handle things on a case-by-case basis with full authorization.
No one dared to say anything to a Teaching Assistant of the Witch Academy.
Subsequently, after discussing and communicating so miscellaneous matters, the issue was mostly resolved.
The couple was also taken away by the Security Bureau personnel.
I must say, just a mont ago, they were demanding tens of billions from like a lion opening its mouth; now, they had nothing... This was probably the impermanence of the world.
Before leaving, they also asked for a contact thod using my Witch Academy identity.
As the Security Bureau, they naturally had the ans to communicate with enrolled students.
They said they would report the progress of the matter to .
However... I no longer cared.
As for why I didn't completely eliminate them, to prevent things like blackening and reversal from happening...
Let put it this way.
If the speed of their blackening and becoming stronger could keep up with the speed of my own increase in strength, then it wouldn't even require to take action.
The Witch Academy would probably have plenty of witches ready to capture them for research.
It must be known what level I was at now.
I wouldn't dare say I could absolutely win against a strong individual below the Transcendent level, but if I encountered one, I was absolutely confident in daring to make a move.
After all, when I learned about the Anti-Witch and the betrayers, I had simulated in my mind how to cope with encountering a Transcendent.
With my own abilities, I had a very high probability of surviving below the Transcendent level.
After the Security Bureau personnel left, this ho... no, this house suddenly beca empty.
I walked up to Yang Yunhan, who was now sitting on the sofa after being helped up.
Under my request, he was not directly taken away to assist with the investigation, after all... he was still a student about to take the college entrance examination.
“Are you satisfied now...”
Yang Yunhan lowered his head, sowhat afraid to look at , but upon seeing approach him, he still forced himself to speak in an extrely unconfident tone.
However, my response to him was not words, but the sound of a card colliding with the coffee table.
With that "Pa" sound.
Yang Yunhan's gaze was also drawn to the object.
It was... a card.
He had seen his parents' cards, but he didn't have one himself.
Moreover, his parents hid their cards very well, so even he didn't know where they were hidden, as if they were guarding against a thief.
He didn't understand it before, but now... he understood.
If growth ant suffering harm, then this harm had passively made him grow a little.
At least he felt that the price of such growth was too great.
“What do you an by this?”
“Living expenses. Or are you still counting on those two cheap parents of yours?”
I said.
Yang Yunhan looked at the bank card, his expression very complex, and also a kind of... helplessness.
“From today onwards, you live alone.”
I continued to speak.
Regarding his inner conflict, I directly perceived it through Heart Sense.
For a child like him, who was simple-minded or hadn't grown up, this simplicity, when viewed with my Heart Sense, was simply like mind-reading.
So, I was very clear about why he didn't show any greed.
It was because he didn't have much of a concept of money, and also because he had never seen a large sum of money.
Even though school life made him understand the importance of money, as soone who had never earned money, he didn't have a clear definition of money... Hmm, it was sowhat similar to ; I also didn't have a concept of large sums of money.
But, he was even more lacking in common sense than I was!
And he was also cowardly.
“Take this card and withdraw money yourself. The password is the initial six zeros. As for how to withdraw, what the procedures are, how much to withdraw, and how to use it, you figure it out yourself. If you don't understand, go ask—ask the bank, ask the staff. Then, take the money and communicate with your teacher about the boarding issue yourself...”
“......”
“I don't care if you rember or not. In short, you just need to rember that when you have a need, go buy a phone yourself and search for it. If you don't understand, ask. If you don't dare to ask, then honestly search on your phone yourself. Don't be such a grown-up that taking care of yourself is still a problem.”
“......”
Looking at Yang Yunhan, who continued to remain silent, I gradually saw my forr self in him.
Not speaking was not wrong; remaining silent, responding to any goodwill or malice in this world with silence, regardless of right or wrong, but at least in this way, no one could harm oneself.
“Study hard for the college entrance examination. That is the one and only opportunity in your life to change your destiny. The examination center for your school is the one I will be inspecting. On the day the scores are released, I will co to see you again.”
“Also, I will warn you one more thing: don't think you have a fallback to the Holy Angel Academy. The Holy Light Church values you because you are my younger brother, not because you are particularly outstanding.”
After saying this, I turned and looked at Big Sis Bai, signaling that it was ti to leave.
Big Sis Bai had almost no presence throughout this entire process.
She was like an outsider, an observer.
Accompanying , watching how I would cross a hurdle in my life.
As the front door was completely closed.
Yang Yunhan finally couldn't hold it together and collapsed onto the sofa at this mont.
This was because his world had collapsed.
No one was there to continue bearing the pressure of life for him.
Reality pressed him firmly onto the ground.
Two streams of tears flowed down from the corners of his eyes.
At this mont, he was not sad, but numb.
Only he was left in the house.
Even the newborn child had been taken away by the Security Bureau personnel, as such a young child could not be left there to die.
And I, having left at this mont, felt a burst of cheerfulness.
Looking up at the sky, it seed the sky was bluer, the clouds were whiter, and the wind was fresher.
I took out that Destiny Coin.
I could feel the Destiny condensing within this Destiny Coin, but no qualitative change had occurred.
It seed ntor Trixie Destiny might be disappointed.
“Little Han, your words were much more nurous when you were facing Yang Yunhan just now.”
“Were they?”
I was slightly stunned.
After reflecting for a mont, I found that it seed to be true.
“Didn't you notice, Little Han?”
“Hmm... I notice it now... Perhaps I saw my forr self in him...”
“Is that so? No wonder. Then, Little Han, are you still planning to lure him to the Witch Academy?”
“That depends on him. It depends on whether he can change his own destiny, although the hope is very slim.”
