Chapter 119: Chapter 119 The Cleansed Skeletons

Scarlett Jennings had just sent the message, and several responses quickly popped up in the group chat.

Azura Loomis: Is the show still on?

Chase Jennings: The show didn’t get canceled? How is that possible?

Lucas Jennings: I just knew my sister’s show wouldn’t be that easy to cancel!

Donovan Jennings: Did Dad make a move?

Luca Jennings: ...

To be honest, Dad hasn’t had a chance to make a move yet.

The Jennings Family didn’t intervene, so who did?

Like Quincy Zimmerman, the Jennings Family instinctively thought of the Carew Family.

After all, besides their family, the only others among the guests who could intervene were the Carews.

But no matter who it was, the result was good in the end.

As they chatted, a new message popped up.

It was from Samuel Chalmers.

[Samuel Chalmers: I heard there was an issue with the show. If you have any other ideas, you can contact Juno Wilder directly. She’ll arrange it for you.]

Scarlett Jennings raised an eyebrow slightly, feeling that Boss Chalmers was increasingly concerned about her.

Last time he gave her a graduation gift, and now he’s offering to help arrange things for her.

However, considering Donovan’s involvement, Scarlett assumed it was just someone her brother asked for help, so she politely replied,

[Thank you, but the issue with the show is already resolved. It will resume tomorrow.]

Samuel Chalmers simply responded with one word.

[Okay.]

With the conversation finished, the show’s car happened to stop in front of the villa area gate, and Scarlett Jennings bid farewell to the show staff and returned to the Jennings Family home.

Since the first episode was happening in Sea City, Scarlett didn’t stay at the hotel arranged by the show. She just planned to join them again at the meeting time tomorrow.

On the way back, Scarlett placed an order on Spiritual Affairs Quick Delivery, sending five ghostly girls directly to reincarnation.

She even took a moment to weigh the little infant spirit but found it still weighed too little and decided to continue nurturing its yin energy.

While Scarlett and the show crew followed their own schedule, on the other side, Daniel Wright took Dashiell Xalvadora along with the child’s skeleton back to the police station.

As soon as they stepped inside, relevant personnel approached to take charge of the child’s skeleton.

The two individuals wore plain clothes, with badges of a special department, and after receiving the bag containing the skeleton from the officer, they carefully placed each bone into their own box.

Their expressions were noticeably serious while handling the bones, and when finally done, the observer sighed in relief, while the bone handler frowned as if sensing something amiss.

Daniel Wright, always perceptive, asked, "Is there a problem?"

The person turned, his expression tightened, "Nothing, just didn’t expect..."

As he spoke, his gloved hand suddenly reached into the corner of the bag, and pulled out a bit of black ash.

Seeing the black ash, he seemed to finally understand,

"No wonder, someone preemptively ’cleansed’ this skeleton."

Daniel found the black ash on his hands familiar and instinctively explained, "The skeleton hasn’t been cleaned since it was excavated."

"That’s not what I meant." The person smiled, with no intention of further explanation, only securing the box with his colleague,

"We’ll take this skeleton, and our department will handle the matter of the Silva Family mansion from here on. Thank you for your hard work."

Daniel Wright saw them off without much thought, then checked in on Dashiell Xalvadora’s questioning before preparing to search Dashiell’s home for evidence.

Due to the heinous nature of the serial girl murders, they had already attracted significant municipal attention, and now with a suspect, the task force had to strike while the iron was hot.

Because of the Inspiration show, public discussion of the case online was unprecedentedly severe.

This matter needed to be resolved as soon as possible.

Their car and the evidence collection team’s car drove past an intersection, but unexpectedly ran into traffic right after turning a corner.

"This isn’t even rush hour yet, why the traffic jam?"

The officer driving muttered under his breath, as Daniel Wright peeked ahead, unwilling to waste time, and ordered,

"Take a detour."

Daniel instinctively wanted to suggest taking the small road on the left, but before he could speak, the words of that little girl suddenly came to his mind.

["When things go wrong, remember to go right."]

As if guided by a supernatural force, Daniel instructed, "Take the little road on the right."

The officer driver looked puzzled, "Wouldn’t the left be quicker?"

Going right required an extra turn.

Daniel, impatient, said, "I said right, so go right. Why question it?"

The officer shrugged and complied obediently.

The evidence collection team’s car followed theirs to the right, and shortly after turning, they heard screams and cries from behind.

Thinking something had happened, Daniel immediately had the driver stop and sent another team member to check.

Although they weren’t responsible for patrol and security, they couldn’t just ignore something happening so close by.

Soon, the officer who went to check returned, explaining,

"An advertising board fell from a building on the other road, luckily missing pedestrians, and the patrol officers are handling it."

He said this while holding his chest, visibly shaken,

"Good thing we didn’t take the left route earlier. From the looks of it, if we’d gone there, it probably would’ve hit our vehicles, and in the worst case, both cars would’ve been wrecked."

The officer spoke as if he had narrowly escaped disaster.

Daniel Wright was secretly astonished.

He looked toward the commotion again.

Was it just a coincidence?

But, was something coincidental really likely in this world?

If not a coincidence, then did the girl foresee this?

A materialist for thirty years, Daniel had faced so many surprises today.

...

Early the next morning, Scarlett Jennings had the driver take her to the hotel to meet up with the show staff.

Her outfit remained the same as before, a simple T-shirt and cargo pants, with a mid-length white sun-protection jacket and a baseball cap, giving her a casual yet spirited look.

Ariel Zimmerman was the first to wave in her direction, seemingly unaffected despite witnessing the unearthing of bones yesterday.

As for the aftermath of the live stream interruption yesterday, the crew released an edited version overnight, including Scarlett exposing the Wealth Pillar planted by the old lady and the Silva Family.

Netizens, although not fully satisfied with the edited version, at least accepted this outcome.

And thanks to the edited version’s release, the accident didn’t cause much viewer dissatisfaction, and once again the live stream was abuzz as it resumed.

This time, the crew started live streaming directly from the car.

The five guests greeted the camera in turn, and Sebastian Carew was the first to ask about the day’s destination.

The crew kept it a secret for once.

"Everyone will find out when we get there, but regarding this case, Evander Simpson should be quite familiar with it."

Evander seemed surprised by the sudden mention, but quickly realized it might be about a request from the Clear Breeze Temple.

He just wasn’t sure which one.

Scarlett wasn’t too concerned about this, as long as things went smoothly.

However, when the production car drove into a familiar neighborhood and onto a familiar street, Scarlett started having a bad feeling.

And as the car finally stopped in front of a villa all too familiar to her, Scarlett’s face immediately fell.
