As he spoke, he sent a photo of his ID card with the numbers blurred out.
"Fuck, it's confirmed! That's the place!"
"Fuck, who wants to see your ID? Hurry up and tell us what happened to Huanhuan's sister!"
Ai Shang Jiangnan said.
"This person is Li Suyun, from the same town as me. Our town is small, so we all know each other. She was definitely adopted by their family when she was young. As for the specifics, I'm not sure. I think a DNA test is still needed for scientific proof!"
"What's left to prove? The Master already figured it out!"
"Exactly! It's unbelievable how accurate he was!"
"This turned into a massive family reunion in seconds!"
At that moment, Huanhuan updated her mother on her sister's situation, then returned to the livestream to speak.
"Sorry, everyone, I have to go find my sister with my parents! I'm sorry, but I can't wait another minute!"
After she finished, she walked over to Xia Liang and bowed deeply.
"Master, I'm sorry for doubting you before. Please forgive me! After I find my sister, I will come back to thank you properly!"
Xia Liang waved his hand dismissively.
"Thanks aren't necessary. You paid me, so I did my job. I wish your family a speedy reunion!"
The anchor left, and the crowd of onlookers finally dispersed, though they now looked at Xia Liang differently. Many were eager to have Xia Liang tell their fortunes, but his previous price of one-tenth of a currency unit per divination had scared them away. Seeing that no one was interested, Xia Liang lost his enthusiasm as well, packing up his stall and leaving.
「The next day」
Xia Liang didn't set up his stall on the overpass again. Instead, he went straight to the commercial street. After all, he was famous now; anyone who genuinely wanted a reading would seek him out.
Little Liu Lian had been taken clothes shopping by Luu Qi and Xi Yiqian, so with no business to attend to, Xia Liang settled in to guard Konoha Village.
Just then, an uninvited guest quietly approached the vicinity of the Fortune-telling House.
"Hello to my viewers in the livestream. This is the Fortune-telling House that you guys messaged me about. According to my sources, the so-called master here is just a charlatan, a con artist who uses psychological tricks like reading body language."
"But the netizen who sent me this message said their mother completely trusts this master. So, our goal today is to expose this fake and stop her mom from being scammed."
A hot-bodied beauty, brimming with youthful energy, held up her selfie stick and narrated to the camera.
Yan Qianwei was a famous debunker on a popular streaming platform. Thanks to her controversial content and sweet looks, her streams were always incredibly popular whenever she went live.
"Be careful, Anchor!"
"Watch out for accomplices! We'll call the cops if things get dicey!"
"A pretty girl with a sense of justice! Love it, love it!"
"Take down these charlatans! Go, Anchor!"
"Wifey, I love you!"
"My wife."
"My wife."
Watching the supportive comments scroll across the screen, the nervous Yan Qianwei calmed down a little. Her path to becoming a debunking streamer had been somewhat accidental. It had all started when she was scammed while buying a bird's nest online. Indignant, Yan Qianwei started a livestream to angrily confront the seller. She never expected that a single broadcast would catapult her to the top of the trending topics. Naturally, the university student started using her free time to stream.
But this was her first time confronting a fake in person. Previously, she had, at most, streamed to expose merchants selling counterfeit goods online. Because of this, Yan Qianwei was quite on edge.
She turned her back to the camera, picked up another phone, and quickly typed a message.
"Didi, if I haven't called you in an hour, you must call the police to save me, okay?"
After sending the text, Yan Qianwei straightened her clothes again. She took a deep breath, steadying her racing heart.
"Alright, I'm hiding you guys now."
With that, she expertly slid her streaming phone into her handbag. The bag had been modified with a special compartment for the phone, its camera peeking through a discreet hole on the outside. Yan Qianwei picked up her other phone and opened the stream to check the hidden camera's view.
Hmm, not bad. The view isn't obstructed at all.
"Alright, everyone, I'm going in. Wish me luck!" she said, picking up her bag and smiling at the camera.
"Good luck!"
"Good luck!"
"You're awesome, Anchor!"
"Be safe, lady!"
The barrage of encouraging messages from the viewers emboldened Yan Qianwei, and she walked straight into the Fortune-telling House.
"Welcome."
Before she even stepped inside, a piercing electronic voice alert sounded from the doorway.
"Ah!"
Being so tense, the sudden sound made her let out a small shriek.
Xia Liang, who was cleaning inside, heard the noise at the entrance.
Whoa, business is pretty good today. Another customer already.
He walked out from the back of the shop.
"Hello, are you here for a fortune reading?"
Xia Liang greeted Yan Qianwei at the door with a professional smile, but she was still trying to calm her nerves.
She saw a clean-cut, handsome man in his twenties walk out and stand beside the desk, asking his question with a smile. Yan Qianwei was slightly stunned. It wasn't that she hadn't seen handsome men before, but to encounter such a sunny and charming guy in a fortune-telling shop... the striking contrast only served to accentuate his good looks.
