"No, no." One of the students shook his head. "The rest of them don't have any conflicts with Juan."
The old man asked again, "Do you really not remember what happened yesterday?"
The two students looked at each other and shook their heads again.
They only remembered that they followed Juan up the mountain and didn't know what happened after that.
The old man knocked on the table. "Get someone to check their memories."
The butler went down quickly and came back with a hypnotist.
The hypnotist was very respectful. "Sir Jason."
"Let's see if they have really forgotten," Jason said calmly. "Restore their memories."
The hypnotist looked at their pupils and other parts of their faces and said, "They really forgot. They must have suffered too much mental stimulation and lost their memories naturally."
"They can be restored, but it will affect their nerves and reduce their IQ." “
Jason frowned. "Okay, you can leave."
He said to the two students, "Stay by Juan's side. Money isn't a problem. Herschel will reimburse you."
After ending the call, Jason got up and went to the family's astrology room.
There was an astrologer calculating the astrolabe and there were a few tarot cards beside him.
"Did you get anything?" Jason went up. "Still nothing?"
"I can't tell what happened exactly." The astrologer shook his head. "I can only tell that the beast is dead and all the treasures inside have been taken away. But the astrolabe is a blur as to who did it."
Jason frowned and took a deep breath. "It seems that the diviners from Hua did it. It's reasonable that we can't see what happened."
Generally speaking, people with low divination abilities couldn't tell what happened to people with high divination abilities.
Jason had already guessed that Juan was just unlucky. It wasn't someone else who harmed him.
But his grandson was so talented in astrology and art. How could he lose his mind?
Jason couldn't take it lying down. He had to find someone to vent his anger on.
He couldn't afford to offend the old guys from Hua.
Especially the Fifth Family.
The Fifth Family had been passed down for generations. Even though there were fewer and fewer people with divination abilities, the Fifth Family was still terrifyingly strong.
When it came to persimmons, one naturally had to pick the weakest one.
They had investigated Wen Tinglan for a long time and knew that he valued his father and adopted sister very much.
Since his family was in trouble, he could only stay in Hua City.
It was also a good plan.
"Get the things ready and bring the people." Jason stood up and ordered coldly, "Get the emergency pass and go to Hua City immediately."
They only had one emergency pass left, which allowed them to leave Norton University without having to report their arrival.
Usually, regardless of whether it was the Herschel family or the other native families, their members would be reported to the vice-principal if they moved out.
Jason knew that the vice-principal had been alive for centuries, but he didn't think much of the vice-principal.
He knew neither astrology nor alchemy.
If it wasn't for the fact that he had lived for so long, he would have long been removed from the position of vice principal.
As for the principal?
Jason sneered.
This time, he wanted to see if the vice-principal was telling the truth.
If Norton just wanted to leave, he would not make a move.
If Norton were to go missing or die, it would be time for someone else to take over as the principal of Norton University.
**
Imperial Capital.
The live broadcast of the program was still in progress.
Because the participants of the escape room were all highly intelligent people, the program team didn't expect to trap these geniuses for long.
However, the puzzles created by the professors of Imperial Capital University were very difficult, so they should be able to hold on for half an hour.
Each person was a separate line, but the puzzle was the same.
Until Wen Tinglan and Adele's camera caught the two of them walking to the first door, they didn't even look for the puzzles and directly broke the door open.
【？？？】
[You can do that? Why didn't I think of that when I was playing escape rooms?]
[What do you mean you didn't think of it? The doors of the escape rooms are all specially made. Even if you have a black belt in Taekwondo, you can't kick them open.]
[Is this the telepathy between husband and wife? I'm jealous.]
The producer and director who were also watching the video backstage: "…"
They were now quite afraid of Norton University. What kind of people were inside?
Ying Zijin solved the puzzles in a normal way and didn't break the door open.
However, she couldn't even hold on for ten minutes, let alone half an hour.
The reason why there was still ten minutes left was because the journey from the entrance to the exit took seven to eight minutes. The rest of the time was for them to look for the puzzles.
[Did you see that? Yingshen wanted to make a move several times, but he restrained himself and solved the puzzles normally.]
[He clearly knows what his brother is likely to do, so he didn't do it to save face for the program team.]
The producer and director: "…"
They didn't feel comforted.
While the others were still solving the puzzles, Ying Zijin went out from the last door, and her live broadcast ended.
She entered the last resting room and saw the man sitting on the sofa. She couldn't help but pause. "Why are you here?"
Fu Yunshen slowly looked up. "I bribed the program team."
"…"
With money, one could really do whatever they wanted.
Ying Zijin drank a mouthful of water. "The program team is quite stupid."
The producer and director were all from the main TV station, and the rest were handled by First Light Media.
"Let's go." Fu Yunshen patted her head. "We've been recording for a few days. Go back and rest."
Ying Zijin nodded. "I'm going to bring Xiao Lan and Second Uncle to the ancient martial arts world."
Wen Fengmian was indeed quite busy now. He had to run between the ancient martial arts world and the Ji family, so he had to deal with both sides.
Her calculations were right. The Herschel family was coming today, so it was safer to send Wen Tinglan to the ancient martial arts world.
She didn't have to worry too much about Wen Fengmian. With 50 years of ancient martial arts cultivation, even the Herschel family would be able to touch him.
Two minutes later, Wen Tinglan and Adele also came out.
After hearing this, he frowned slightly. "Sister, take Adele with you."
Ying Zijin turned and looked at Adele.
Adele thought for a moment. "Okay, I'll go too."
Ying Zijin sent a WeChat message to Li Han and the rest of the team, telling them to stay in the Imperial Capital University for the next few days and not go out.
If it wasn't for Juan, she would have forgotten that there were a few other people besides Norton at the founding of Norton University.
The founders had also communicated with each other back then.
After sorting out other things, Ying Zijin set off for the ancient martial arts world.
**
At five o 'clock in the afternoon, the Herschel family arrived in the capital.
Jason led them straight to the Ji family's villa area.
However, no one was there, whether it was Wen Fengmian or Ji Yihang's family.
They didn't find anything.
Jason frowned and was displeased. "They're not here?"
"Sir, could they have run away?" The butler said, "Didn't Young Master Juan's two classmates say that they warned others about Young Master Juan's family background?"
"They probably knew that they would be implicated, so they ran away in advance."
"Ran away? Can they run away? That Ying Zijin is the all-rounded genius of Imperial Capital University, right? " Jason said calmly, "Go and capture two students from Imperial Capital University and torture them. Send them the photos and see if they come back."
"If they don't come back, then continue to capture them until you force them to come back."
The butler was shocked.
It seemed that Jason was really angry about what happened to Juan.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have started to use unscrupulous means to deal with ordinary people.
If news of this spread to Norton University, he would definitely be held accountable.
Could it be …
The butler was even more shocked. "Sir, are you going to …"
"Yes," Jason knocked on the table. "Norton University has been called Norton for so long, it's time to change its name."
At this time, Imperial Capital University was also ending classes.
The mercenaries of the Herschel family had all undergone special training, and their leader was a Class S graduate from the Combat Department. They successfully kidnapped two students.
"Both of you know Ying Zijin, right?" Jason squatted down and looked at the two students. "Remember, it's because of her that you were captured. You must hate her, the more you hate her, the better."
Only then did the two students understand what was going on.
One of the students laughed angrily. "Aren't you the one who captured us? Why are you trying to pin the blame on Yingshen?"
What kind of twisted logic was this?
"That's why we know her." Jason nodded. "Do you know where she is?"
The two students didn't speak.
First, they really didn't know. Second, these people didn't come with good intentions.
They were in the same batch as Ying Zijin and had participated in the ISC International Finals after many rounds of selection.
That was a bomb incident, although they still didn't know what happened.
The only thing they were sure of was that if it wasn't for Ying Zijin, they would have been buried under the ruins. Whether they could survive was still unknown.
After waiting for a few minutes, Jason lost his patience. "Do it, cut off two fingers first."
Two mercenaries stepped forward and held down the two students.
Before they could make a move, the door was kicked open with a loud bang.
The girl stood against the light, her silhouette somewhat cold.
Jason narrowed his eyes and raised his hand to signal the two mercenaries to stop.
The two students were paralyzed on the ground. They were still a little frightened, but they said at the same time, "Yingshen, they're coming for you. Hurry up and leave!"
Ying Zijin stepped forward, her eyes slightly cold. "It's okay, I came back specially."
Variables were different from fixed ones. Variables were hard to predict.
Coupled with the butterfly effect, many things were constantly changing.
Even if she calculated, she couldn't be completely sure who would be hurt.
Especially when there were too many targets to choose from. She didn't even know these two students, but she vaguely remembered that they had participated in the International Finals together.
The matter of the ancient martial arts world had been delayed for a while. Fortunately, she came in time.
"You're finally back." Jason looked at the girl with a scrutinizing gaze. "I thought you had already run away from Hua. You dare to come back, your courage is commendable."
Wen Tinglan was a student of Norton University. He was protected by his student status, and the Herschel family didn't dare to do anything to him openly.
But Ying Zijin was different. She didn't choose Norton University, and Norton University wouldn't protect her.
"Alright, I won't touch them. I didn't want to touch them, but you have to take responsibility for Hu An." Jason stood up with his hands behind his back. He looked at her calmly. "Now, follow me to the hospital."
Ying Zijin checked the two students' bodies. After confirming that they were fine, she didn't say anything.
She directly raised her leg and attacked.
Jason's expression changed slightly, but he still sneered. "You have some skills. Not bad, this isn't enough. What else do you have to say?"
These two mercenaries were the weakest among the people he brought.
Before he came, he had done his research and knew that Ying Zijin knew how to fight. It was reasonable that she could defeat him.
Ying Zijin turned her head and looked at Jason. She said calmly, "Nick Herschel, you will regret having a descendant like you."
"What did you say?" Jason suddenly stopped in his tracks. He said coldly, "How do you know this name?"
Nick Herschel was a person who lived in Norton for a century. He was also the founder of the Herschel family.
Even Jason only knew about it after he became the head of the family and looked at the family tree.
However, not everyone was lucky enough to be modified by alchemy to increase their cell division ability and extend their lifespan.
Because he was an astrologer, he had a short lifespan, just like the fortune-tellers in Hua. Nick Herschel passed away very early.
The few families in Norton University were passed down from the people who founded Norton University together with Norton University.
Because of their great contributions to Norton University, people with the surname Herschel had a very high status in Norton University.
Jason was very unhappy. They were all founders, so why was the principal of Norton University?
"It's useless to know the name of your ancestor." Jason shook his head and suppressed the doubts in his heart. "My ancestor is dead, and you don't know him. Don't think that I'll let you go."
He clapped his hands and smiled. "Since you don't want to leave, fine, I'll arrest you."
Another group of mercenaries came in through the door.
----- Digression —
Hmm … In my book, there's no such thing as a second female lead or a second male lead.
Love rivals have to be evenly matched, so there's no such thing.
But if we were to arrange it according to the scenes, Xiu Yu should be the second female lead. The second male lead, Jiang Ran? No, this dog doesn't deserve to be T ^ T
