Chapter 254: Chapter 254: The Nation Takes Action!
Scarlett Jennings’s words were always like a timely rain.
Wyatt Anson still wasn’t sure what was happening. His eyes instinctively darted to Elsa, who was holding a phone, while he heard that person’s soft murmur again from the other end,
"The person should be arriving soon."
Hearing this, everyone in the room and the viewers watching the livestream were all clueless.
Who was arriving soon?
Was there still someone who hadn’t come?
Just as they were talking, there was another knock at the door.
Everyone turned to look and saw two young men in plain clothes standing at the entrance. One of them smiled and held up his ID to the others, introducing himself,
"Hello, National Special Security Department. We’ve received a report and heard that there’s a case of soul-swapping here."
Officers in the room: ???
Seth Houghton: !!!
[Wow! The National Special Security Department! The country actually has a department to handle such things!]
[The country finally stepped in! Instantly feeling much safer!]
[The country actually has a special department, sob, how much good has the nation been doing behind our backs!]
The viewers in the livestream believed in the existence of the National Special Security Department no less than they believed in mysticism.
But the officers on duty hadn’t heard of this department and were about to verify the other party’s identity when suddenly, their phone rang.
Everyone thought it was a call to hand the case over to the Special Security Department, but unexpectedly, after hanging up, the officer turned to Wyatt with a serious expression,
"A report was filed in the Xin’an District. A woman named Elsa was found bound at home, and the person claims your intent to murder her..."
Wyatt, Elsa: ??
It was only then that everyone knew after Wyatt left, Clara Harper struggled to the window to throw something down for help, and she was indeed discovered. Worried that Wyatt had already found Elsa, she claimed that Wyatt intended to murder her.
The marks on her neck from Wyatt’s grip were evidence, and at the time, the livestream viewers were the witnesses!
Livestream viewers: ...
[Never thought a day would come when eating melons would make us witnesses! Is this some kind of interactive experience or what?]
[Damn! That woman actually dared to accuse him!]
[Officers, we can testify! No murder! She’s lying!]
[What murder? No one was murdered, I can testify, they were just playing around.]
[Exactly! They were playing a murder mystery game earlier, and the marks from being strangled were part of recreating a murder scene.]
[You claim he murdered you, so why are you still alive?]
Livestream viewers were trying various ways to prove Wyatt’s innocence in the comments, while Elsa was also trying to explain for Wyatt.
Although she didn’t know what had happened, she knew Wyatt was definitely being wronged!
As Seth listened to her defend Wyatt again, the resentment in his eyes nearly became tangible, just as he was about to say something more when he noticed the second man from the Security Department, who had entered initially, standing beside Elsa.
He was holding some device, scanning over Elsa, then looked at the results, confidently stating,
"There’s an anomaly in the soul wavelengths, confirming that a living soul has been forcibly swapped."
After speaking, he put away the device, turning to the two officers who had initially arrived, and said in a very formal tone,
"We’ve confirmed that the case involves the soul-swapping evil technique. This case is now under the jurisdiction of our Special Security Department. Please confirm with your superiors about handing over the case."
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the officer’s phone rang again, this time it really was a call from his superior instructing to hand over the case.
With the intervention of the National Security Department, Seth Houghton and Clara Harper could no longer manipulate the legal system to distort the facts, and Wyatt and Elsa finally felt relieved at that moment.
Though they hadn’t managed to swap back their bodies yet, they felt it would all soon come to an end.
Later, based on Seth Houghton’s confession, he had accidentally met an expert in soul-swapping, which led to his conspiracy with Clara Harper, who had a crush on Wyatt, to orchestrate the swap.
Not long after Wyatt and Elsa registered their marriage, Seth quickly did the same with Clara, who had changed her name.
After that, they began executing their soul-swapping plan as intended; everything went well for them, until Clara was exposed too soon, dragging Seth’s involvement into the light as well.
...
As the case was taken over, the livestream connection was naturally cut off.
The viewers could not follow up on the situation and kept asking in the comments.
They had been part of the whole thing with Wyatt and Clara.
But what was the real deal with Seth and Elsa?
How did Scarlett Jennings find people so quickly without any direct contact?
And who was the person that messaged her?
Scarlett Jennings, seeing the flood of questions in the comments, knew she couldn’t avoid explaining and said,
"It was purely by chance that Elsa’s location was discovered."
Scarlett, unusually careful with her words, elaborated,
"Before connecting with the person asking for help, I happened to receive a message from a friend of mine. She had originally been commissioned to help a newlywed wife who was experiencing domestic violence, but when she got there, she noticed something was off, so she messaged me.
At first, I didn’t make the connection, but later, with the information confirmed, it turned out that the abused wife was indeed the one whose soul had been swapped."
She paused, then suddenly looked toward the camera, speaking in a deep voice,
"I can only say, some things are destined. Once such evil techniques like soul swapping are used, there will always be flaws. Even if today’s coincidence didn’t happen, the Mystical Sect wouldn’t have trouble tracing one soul to another’s position.
Once Clara Harper and Elsa have swapped back, those who did harm will definitely face backlash."
Anyone perceptive could tell that Scarlett’s words were directed at certain people watching the livestream.
Her words were a clear warning.
The livestream viewers speculated that Scarlett’s message was meant for those wizards using evil techniques to harm others.
After all, Seth Houghton and Clara Harper are ordinary people; they wouldn’t know anything about soul-swapping spells, so someone must have taught them.
For a while, the comments section filled with [Those who harm others will surely face backlash!].
However, among those cursing the evil mage behind the soul-swapping technique, some sharp-minded viewers caught the "loophole" in Scarlett’s words.
[Scarlett mentioned her friend was commissioned to help Elsa, a victim of domestic violence. I understand this friend might be like a representative from something like the Women’s Union, but here comes the question: if she were simply from the Women’s Union, how could she immediately tell that Elsa’s soul didn’t match her body?]
[Sister upstairs, you hit the nail on the head! After my thorough analysis and verification, I think I’ve guessed who this "friend" Scarlett mentioned is!]
