An Yan knew very well that unlocking more Yezi was clearly the easier path for her.
Let’s do that then!
An Yan withdrew her focus to look at the tree in her mind.
A single competition had exposed Matsumoto ina’s conspiracy, yet Bai Wu had only released thirteen Yezi.
Compared to the Techniques and Clairvoyance branches next to it, it looked pitifully sparse. An Yan didn’t know how Bai Wu made its calculations. By rights, having uncovered the true nature of the Revival Dan, hadn’t she saved over a billion of her countryn? Surely, saving a hundred million people didn’t result in just one Yezi, did it? And based on previous experience, this branch should have at least two hundred Yezi. The current global population was just over six billion! This... If Bai Wu really calculated it this way, it was definitely making things difficult for her!
The thirteen Yezi suddenly quivered, as if to say An Yan was mistaken.
"If I’m thinking wrong, then tell the right way to think!"
The Yezi stopped moving.
An Yan silently withdrew her attention.
She concluded that the tree and the Yezi were two separate systems. The tree took charge of the broader direction, urging her to save lives and do good deeds. The Yezi, on the other hand, handled smaller matters. For example, the Divination Technique would provide hints related to divination. The Clairvoyance Technique only provided hints related to clairvoyance. The Talisman Technique had communicated with her for the first ti. Its powers were obviously weak; apart from nodding or shaking its "head," it probably couldn’t do much else. No matter what, it wasn’t a billion-to-one ratio; that was good news. For now, I need to find a way to continue unlocking Yezi. Once I’ve unlocked enough, I should be able to create a High Grade Restriction Talisman and trap Li Yanluo in that body, right?
The police station.
Matsumoto ina refused to cooperate and had been silent since entering the police station.
Her team mbers were all ashen-faced.
This was the biggest crisis they had faced since aligning with Matsumoto ina.
They were, of course, aware of what the Revival Dan could do. In the past, however, everyone only cared about whether illnesses were cured and whether people were brought back to life.
No one had ever investigated why it could cure diseases or bring the dead back to life.
But this ti, An Yan had not only investigated and exposed the reasons but had also reported the matter to their ho country.
The public, who once revered them as saviors, now relentlessly demanded that the entire research team be brought to justice.
Minister Matsumoto Yuki had, shockingly, shifted all bla to Miss ina. He claid her team developed the Revival Dan and that he himself was unaware of it.
He also stated that he would leave everything to the authorities’ discretion!
When this news arrived, Miss ina erupted in curses.
Her team mbers were petrified into silence.
The team mber whose vitality Matsumoto ina had previously absorbed was especially terrified, shrinking into a corner.
That woman had felt nothing when Matsumoto ina used the drug to harm others. Only when she herself beca a victim did she realize what a demon Matsumoto ina truly was. In Matsumoto ina’s eyes, there was no such thing as one of her own people! In a crisis, anyone could be sacrificed by her.
"What are you hiding for?"
Matsumoto ina grabbed her by the collar. "Was it you? Did you create the Revival Dan?" she demanded. "I rely took this risk for all of you. Now that there’s trouble, you sure shrink back fast!"
These words terrified the young woman.
Everyone in this team was highly intelligent.
She understood perfectly that Matsumoto ina was now looking for a scapegoat.
"Miss ina, please spare !"
Tears stread down the woman’s face.
"Spare you? You’re the one who caused this ss; the project was your doing..."
"Miss ina!"
Just when the woman thought there was no escape, Ono Eishi spoke up, "She’s just an assistant. I was the one who created the Revival Dan!"
Matsumoto ina turned to look at Ono Eishi, her gaze filled with doubt.
Ono Eishi smiled gently and said softly in Language R, "Her health is already poor. Pushing her forward now will only make Country Z think we’re sacrificing a pawn to save the king. If we’re going to push soone out, it needs to be soone Country Z will find credible."
"I am your top assistant! My confession will be more convincing than anyone else’s."
"Why?"
"Because I want to prove to you that I am your most loyal protector! I can be sacrificed. However, Miss ina, you absolutely cannot be taken down in Country Z. So, let bear this cri!"
A glimr of tears appeared in Matsumoto ina’s eyes.
"Ono-kun!"
"Don’t cry, Miss ina. We can’t let them see any inconsistencies!"
Ono Eishi stepped forward to take the bla, claiming he had led the drug’s research and Matsumoto ina’s na was rely associated with the project.
Unfortunately, the Country Z police didn’t believe him at all. They continued to interrogate each team mber daily.
After each interrogation, they were all herded back into the sa room.
The police hoped they would discuss the case amongst themselves, providing concrete evidence from their conversations to prove Matsumoto ina was the mastermind.
However, none of them would dare say such a thing.
They had all witnessed Matsumoto ina’s ruthlessness; anyone who dared to defy her would likely die without even knowing how.
So, it was no surprise to them that Ono Eishi had stepped up to take the bla.
After all, Ono Eishi had always been Miss ina’s lackey and had previously displeased her regarding the Dong Xuelian incident.
Recently, Ono Eishi had been desperately trying to impress Miss ina with his efforts.
However, because of the mosquito incident, Miss ina had only grown more disgusted with him.
At this point, even if Ono Eishi didn’t take the fall, Miss ina would undoubtedly not spare him once they returned to Country R.
The others couldn’t help but look at Ono Eishi with a mixture of admiration and even envy.
After all, remaining in Country Z ant imprisonnt, not death.
Unlike them, who had to continue following Matsumoto ina, constantly treading on thin ice.
「A week later.」
The An Family.
An Yan packed all the Talismans she had drawn over the past few days into her storage space.
Personal items like her computer and mobile phone, which shouldn’t be easily shown to others, were also packed away into it.
Inside the space, besides the large tree, Dong Xuelian, Snow Green Grass, and other dicinal herbs, the most abundant items were Raw Stones rich in Spiritual Energy.
The Spiritual Energy An Yan utilized ca from the large tree, which in turn drew its Spiritual Energy from the Raw Stones.
An Yan had observed that the large tree consud almost one Raw Stone every two days.
Not knowing how long she would be gone, she had specifically asked Ling Xiao to prepare so for her.
Little Squirrel, seeing her packing, guessed she was about to go out. It excitedly hopped over and burrowed into her backpack.
Once everything was packed, An Yan stood before the mirror.
The Disguise Talisman had completely transford her appearance. After a final check of her new look, she opened the door and left.
Outside, Wen Ya silently followed, dragging a white suitcase adorned with pink cherry blossoms.
