The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot
Chapter 281 - Chapter 281 Chapter 281 Evil Spirit Entering the Brain

Chapter 281: Chapter 281: Evil Spirit Entering the Brain Chapter 281: Chapter 281: Evil Spirit Entering the Brain “You’re no longer a child, you have your own ability to judge.” Zhong Niangyao looked at Chen Jun, “You took a gamble, hoping for the best, and now you must be prepared to face the consequences!”

“No, it’s not like that.” Chen Jun kept shaking his head, with snot and tears streaming down his face, “I didn’t mean for it to happen, I really didn’t know things would turn out this way. I never intended to harm that little girl.”

A seemingly honest middle-aged man was now crying breathlessly, his tears and snot making him look especially pitiful.

Unfortunately, none of the three people present felt any pity for him.

“A house,” Zhong Niangyao scoffed, “what do you think you have to do to earn such a reward? So, you’ve received a lot, now you have to pay a lot. That’s the law of conservation in this world!”

After hearing Zhong Niangyao’s words, Chen Jun felt even more regret.

“Do you realize your mistake?” Zhong Niangyao asked coolly, devoid of any superfluous emotion, as if she were just asking a casual question.

“I realize it, I truly do!” Chen Jun kept replying, “If I could do it over, I definitely wouldn’t agree to it!”

“Good,” Zhong Niangyao nodded, “Then here’s your chance to redeem yourself. If you can help find that couple, you might be able to reduce some of your own guilt.”

As soon as Chen Jun heard Zhong Niangyao’s words, his eyes lit up, but then his face fell as if he remembered something, looking dejected, “I have no idea who that couple is, I don’t even know their names. They approached me out of the blue.”

Now that he thought about it, everything really did seem to be shrouded in strangeness. The couple had come out of nowhere, and he was clueless about the entire situation, their offer of a house had totally befuddled him, and everything that followed seemed inevitable!

Even now, he realized he had no way of contacting the couple. What was more critical, he couldn’t remember what the couple looked like no matter how hard he tried!

Chen Jun couldn’t help but start hitting his own head with his hands, trying to force himself to remember those events!

Seeing this, Lu Zheng was startled and hurried forward to try to stop Chen Jun’s self-destructive behavior.

However, he had barely moved a step when Zhong Niangyao spoke up.

“You won’t be able to remember anything,” said Zhong Niangyao, her tone still light. “They had already planned to let you take the fall if there were any issues. How could they allow you a chance to find them!”

Hearing this, Chen Jun became very despondent, like a deflated ball.

Now that even the chance for redemption was gone, he didn’t know what kind of punishment he was about to face!

“It’s not completely hopeless,” Zhong Niangyao continued, “Actually, it’s still possible to find that couple, but it requires your cooperation!”

“I’m willing to cooperate!” Chen Jun hastily replied, “Whatever you need me to do, I’m willing.”

“We can follow the trail if we extract the thing inside you,” Zhong Niangyao said, “Of course, it won’t be a problem to take it out after you’re dead either!”

“What?” Chen Jun exclaimed in shock, his eyes wide with terror, and even his voice began to tremble as he spoke, “What… what do you mean?”

“I mean exactly what I said!” Zhong Niangyao looked at Chen Jun with a hint of sympathy, “You didn’t think that they just manipulated your body and let you take the blame, did you?”

“Isn’t that what happened?” Chen Jun’s breathing became hurried, and panic started to spread from the bottom of his heart.

Zhong Niangyao looked at Chen Jun, her gaze revealing a trace of eeriness, “They left an evil spirit in your brain. If they stimulate that evil spirit, it can directly destroy your brain and cause you to die suddenly!”

And the evil spirit would disappear without a trace, and then it would be impossible to find any evidence!

She also didn’t dare to forcefully extract the evil spirit for fear that once the other party sensed something was wrong, they would destroy all the evidence, leaving them with nothing to investigate.

Although Lu Zheng didn’t say anything, there was disbelief in his eyes as he looked at Chen Jun.

He wanted to interject, but remembering the embarrassment he had just experienced, he shut his mouth. He watched Chen Jun intently, as if trying to discern something from him.

That’s because when Chen Jun arrived, they had already conducted several thorough checks on him.

They found nothing on Chen Jun’s person, let alone an evil spirit.

Chen Jun’s face turned deathly pale, his lips began to quiver, and even while sitting, he couldn’t help but start shivering.

“Save me, please save me!” Chen Jun’s voice was filled with terror, “I don’t want to die, I really don’t!”

He hadn’t expected that not only was he facing imprisonment, but also the threat of death!

If he had known it would come to this, he wouldn’t have been greedy. He was still young, he didn’t want to die. And he had elderly parents to think of, what would they do if he died?

“Alright, cooperate with me now, I’ll extract the evil spirit from your brain,” Zhong Niangyao said, “Afterwards, we’ll follow the trail to find them.”

“I’ll cooperate, I’ll do whatever you want me to do!”

Like grasping at a lifeline, Chen Jun eagerly replied, “Just help me get that thing out, and I will repay you in any way I can!”

“I don’t need your repayment,” Zhong Niangyao shook her head, “Just your cooperation will do! However, I must warn you beforehand that extracting the evil spirit will be very painful, you must endure it, and you must remain conscious.”

“If you lose consciousness, there’s a very good chance you’ll never wake up, and you’ll become a living dead person.”

More accurately, a vegetative state, and brain dead at that.

Soon, Zhong Niangyao had Lu Zheng unlock Chen Jun’s handcuffs.

She stood up herself and had Chen Jun stand up as well!

She looked at Chen Jun standing across from her, her expression turning serious. Biting her lip, she stretched out her hand and began to form rapid seals with her hands, chanting difficult and obscure spells, her eyes fierce.
