Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master! Chapter 360: If I Knew the Lottery Numbers, Why Would I Be a

Celia Chambers: [I’m not entirely sure about the specifics, but my mom said it’s because this guy got involved with so cult, saying he wanted to change his fortune and get his future predicted or sothing, but in the end, his demands weren’t t, and they even scamd him out of millions. He was already hundreds of millions in debt, so he couldn’t take it anymore and jumped off to commit suicide.]

Celia Chambers: [It’s so pitiful. He only had a wife who was paraplegic and a three-year-old daughter at ho. Now what will his wife and daughter do?]

Celia Chambers: [The police still haven’t left; they’re going door to door in the complex conducting investigations. Although they found a suicide note in the room, it seems they can’t completely rule it as suicide. So people said they saw strangers coming in and out of his room before he died, and the police suspect it’s related to the cult mbers.]

Thea Shaw: [That’s so tragic.]

Zia Sutton: [Do you think the prices in your complex will drop?]

Thea Shaw: [...]

Celia Chambers: [...]

Even though Zia Sutton’s comnt seed out of place, it was indeed true.

With soone committing suicide in the Chambers Residences, the housing prices there would definitely plumt for a while.

People in China are always superstitious about these things; what if they encounter sothing bad?

If the residents above and below don’t have a strong enough heart, they might move out.

Zia Sutton: [But these cults are really harmful nowadays. Why would anyone believe in them? Anyone with a bit of common sense wouldn’t, right?]

Thea Shaw: [This has nothing to do with common sense. Cults often target people with weak minds, like those in desperate need of belief as spiritual support. The biggest trait of these people is their lack of self-awareness; they go along with whatever others say, and by the ti they realize it, they’re already deeply convinced. This guy was already cornered with millions in debt, desperate tis call for desperate asures, believing in anything isn’t surprising.]

Zia Sutton: [It’s a pity. If he had co to you, a hundred thousand could have solved the problem.]

Thea Shaw: [... You think too simply. I can’t predict everything. So things are destined. His debt, if a fortune-teller could solve that, do you think there would still be poor people in the world? If I knew how to get rich, why would I need fortune-telling?]

Just like so are destined to be poor, so people will never win the lottery in their entire life. You ask a fortune-teller, can he tell you the lottery number?

What’s he even using fortune-telling for, just to scam your money?

Zia Sutton: [...]

Suddenly, it seed like the mystical aura around my fairy sister faded.

Celia Chambers also sighed and lanted.

They just casually discussed this matter. After all, it was sowhat distant from them.

Only the next morning, Thea Shaw didn’t expect to see this incident trending on Weibo.

#CultLeadsToSuicide#

A straightforward and brutal title, Thea Shaw’s intuition said it was related to this event, and upon clicking in, it indeed was.

But the dia reports were surprisingly clearer than what Celia Chambers, who lived in the sa complex, knew.

Thea Shaw even saw the dia unveiling that the cult was called The Clear Path Sect. It sounded related to Taoism but not very legitimate.

It was said that the man had been down on his luck for a long ti. He sought help from a so-called master of The Clear Path Sect, but the other party took millions without delivering, forcing the man to jump off a building.

The authorities were also advising everyone not to believe in cult organizations.

Netizens, of course, were instantly enraged, condemning this cult. However, as Thea Shaw scrolled down the comnts, she stumbled upon a few rather subtle ones.
