Chapter 156 Suddenly Becoming a Top Boss
Ye Na clicked on the link and it was indeed the local news about the sudden incident that happened in the afternoon.
Bring up the keyboard and reply to the message quickly with your fingers.
[I just took a shower. It's really me in the news. The news was made so quickly? Fortunately, it's just a back view, without showing my face. ]
[Is it really you? Are you shopping there? ]
[Well, I bought a few new sports bras and this happened when I walked out of the mall. ]
【We will just chat and not hint at anything. 】
[Wait a moment, I'll turn on the computer. ]
It sounded like he wanted to ask something, so Ye Nai quickly went to the second bedroom, took out his computer, turned it on, went online and opened the group chat.
[Okay, I'm online. ]
Then, the group screen on the computer changed, and Sister Dama started a group video.
Ye Na answered the call and pressed the record button.
The three team leaders, Da Ma Jie, Lao Pan and Da Liu, soon showed up, with their rooms in the background.
"Did you meet anyone when you left the mall?" Sister Dama asked first.
"Please be more specific. Otherwise, I can only answer that there are people outside the mall. It is a busy shopping mall."
The three captains all laughed a few times.
"Okay, let me ask again. You were at the scene, did you notice anything wrong with the five-clawed vine?" Sister Dama coughed twice and changed the question.
"There are remnants of wood-type supernatural powers. I told the firefighters who came to rescue me at the time." Ye Na tilted her head in confusion. "Did you find the person? Was it really sabotage?"
"This is a bit troublesome to talk about."
"I was at the scene, and I participated in the rescue. So I am also a party to the case, right?"
"Yes, the surveillance camera captured a group of people sneaking around the flower bed."
"And then? Did I run into anyone acting suspiciously when I walked out of the mall?"
"Let's talk about the timeline. Tell us what you know."
Among the eight captains in the group, Lao Pan was the oldest. He stopped beating around the bush and directly presented the information he had.
"How old was the sneaky figure captured by the surveillance camera? When I was leaving the mall, I bumped into a group of adolescent boys. They bypassed me and entered the mall. There was a boy in a light green jacket with traces of wood-related supernatural powers. Then a five-clawed vine emerged from the flower bed, and I went to save them."
There was immediately some movement in the video, and it sounded like it was outside the camera, and there were teammates sitting next to them who were responsible for communication and information.
After a while, Sister Da Ma, Lao Pan and the team leader all shook their heads in unison.
"No, you didn't walk out of the door. You only captured the scene of those teenagers going in."
"Hey, if you had taken two more steps, the people standing outside the gate would have been able to shoot you in."
"Those teenagers are the ones causing the trouble, right?"
“Basically.”
"What do you mean basically? Once we find the people, we can compare the traces of superpowers left on them and come to a conclusion, right?"
"When we found the person, several hours had passed. The timeliness of this kind of evidence is very tight, and there was nothing on him."
"Can't we ask them to send another ability for comparison?"
“I heard it’s stuck here.”
"What do you mean?" "It is said that those teenagers all come from well-off families, and their parents have high social status. Although special laws apply to underage awakened people, their parents insist on biting the minors to death. They don't cooperate, and they can't attack them to make them fight back. Isn't this torture?"
"Are you now looking for other indirect evidence to convict them?"
"Correct."
"So is my evidence useful?"
"It's somewhat useful. You clearly pointed out that the man in the light green jacket has residual wood-type abilities. He is indeed the only one in their group who has awakened the wood-type ability."
"But my evidence only goes so far. There is no more conclusive evidence."
"Yes."
“Tsk, I just passed by them and didn’t connect them with the five-clawed vine. I was too naive and thought they had some residual supernatural powers, which could only give birth to one or two flowers at most.
Ye Na felt a little annoyed and a little ashamed.
In fact, I was glad that I took action against those teenagers in time.
If you have power but don't use it in the right way, then don't have it.
At that time, except for a few young people, most of the others were women, the elderly and children who were rolled up by the five-clawed vine. Although the alien plants were killed in time and no casualties were caused, if it had not been for this "timely" action, other wood-type awakeners would have had to fight with the five-clawed vine to save people. In the process, the weak elderly and children would have been rolled to death by the vines.
"No, this has nothing to do with you. There is no evidence. How can you say that a young awakened person is causing trouble in the crowd?" Sister Da Ma waved her hand, telling Ye Na not to worry about it.
"I have another question. When you were saving people, did the five-clawed vine struggle or fight back?"
"No, it's as if it's dead." Ye Nai looked like she had just thought of this question after being reminded. "Oh, yeah, I saw the five-clawed vine emerge, wrap around the person and then curl back up, but when I rushed over to save him, there was no movement."
"Yes, the alien plant is dead."
"...Huh?!" Ye Na was surprised, "Did he really die so quickly? Did a big shot happen to pass by on the street? And did he take action?"
The three captains also had a toothache expression.
“We also hope there are big guys, but no big guys have come out to admit it.”
"To be able to kill an alien plant so quickly, that boss must be very, very powerful, right?"
"Instant kill alien plants, instant kill, do you know that? Those who have the ability to kill instantly are all top figures, and there are only a few in the country. Now everyone is looking for which big guy came to Dongling City without saying hello."
"Instant kill? But this artificially grown five-clawed vine isn't that strong, right?"
Ye Na scratched her neck uncomfortably. It was so sudden that she couldn't accept the identity of "a big boss who can kill instantly".
"Even if it was artificially grown, the five-clawed vine is still a five-clawed vine. Anyone who goes up there will have to spend time and effort to kill it. The fact that it can kill instantly shows its strength."
"That boss is really strong." Ye Na showed an expression of admiration, "Is there no residual supernatural power of that boss at the scene?"
"That's the weird thing. There really isn't one. Otherwise, we wouldn't still be investigating him."
Yenne immediately became serious again, her brows furrowed.
"If a big guy like this wants to do something bad, it will be fatal."
"That's right." The captains all looked like they had a headache.
"Then how do we settle this matter? It was just a piece of cake for the boss to save people, but what about the teenager who caused the trouble? The fact that no one died is because of the boss's ability, but it doesn't count as them being soft-hearted."
"The existing evidence is all indirect evidence, and the identity of the parents is there, so it is probably better to take the case back and let the parents strengthen their education."
"If the parents' words had any effect, they wouldn't have done this."
"Yeah, there's no way."
Ye Nai felt that parents were not something that could be relied upon at all. Rebellious teenagers in adolescence were not willing to listen to their parents' lectures. If previous education had been useful, they would not have done such a thing as allowing the growth of deadly alien plants like the five-clawed vine among the crowd.
