Chapter 175 It’s Becoming More and More Intriguing
Skyler locked eyes with Simone, smiling. “Yes, I am also part of the Special Department.”
Sean chimed in. “He’s the captain of the second team.”
Simone’s expression showed surprise. “I’m genuinely amazed.”
Someone who is used as a medium turned out to be the captain of a small team in the special department. Things are getting more and more interesting.
What intrigued her even more was that both of them were now using special methods to conceal their identities.
If it weren’t for the comparison with the family photo she had seen before, she wouldn’t have been able to tell from Skyler’s appearance that he was Jodie’s half–brother..
Skyler smiled. “No one in my family knows about my true identity.”
He continued, “I hope Miss Simone can help me keep it a secret.”
Simone nodded, “Okay!” Skyler’s identity was not suitable for Gwen to know. She was just an ordinary person, and it would be dangerous for her to know too much.
Simone then asked, “Have you found out why that evil cultivator wanted to target me?”
Skyler replied, “Jodie asked him to come after you.”
Simone asked with curiosity, “Can I ask what the relationship is between that person and Jodie?”
She had previously suspected that the person targeting her might be the man who had exchanged messages with Jodie before.
Skyler said, “We found out that they are siblings. Jodie is the adopted daughter of the Gray Family. In her original family, she had a biological brother and sister. And the evil cultivator is her biological brother. He was taken away by the people from the mysterious sect when he was young and later joined the evil cultivator organization.”
Simone listened to Skyler’s explanation calmly. When it came to Jodie, he seemed relatively indifferent.
Does he know that he and Jodie are half–siblings? And does he know that he himself is a medium?
Simone pretended to show surprise. “So, her biological brother is an evil cultivator. No. wonder she was also affected when I fought back.”
Is Jodie’s biological brother truly an abandoned child who is cast aside? Or does he reveal himself in order to help Jodie deal with her situation? Simone felt that it wasn’t that simple.
Skyler nodded. “The bracelet artifact she wears was given to her by that evil cultivator. That’s why they were affected together.”
This puzzled them a bit.
Theoretically, if that person were to be seriously injured from the backlash, at most, it would only render the artifact unusable. But why was Jodie affected so severely by the backlash? Simone’s strength was beyond their comprehension.
Jodie’s backlash was definitely her own doing.
Simone said meaningfully, “Therefore, one must not harbor malicious intentions towards others. Otherwise, they will face backlash and karmic retribution at any time.”

She added, “I still have to participate in a live broadcast for a variety show, so I can’t you to catch the person. But I can calculate and track the approximate location of that evil cultivator, and you can go find him.”
Skyler and Sean didn’t insist. “Being able to track the approximate location is good enough. Thank you for your help, Miss Simone!”
Simone said to the two, “That person harmed me behind my back, so naturally, I hope he will be brought to justice.”
After she finished speaking, she took out the talisman that had turned black.
She also took three ancient coins and transferred the previously left negative energy onto the
coins.
She held the ancient coins and tossed them, divining a hexagram.
From the hexagram, she deduced the person’s location.
She got up and took a piece of paper and a pen to draw a map with directions.
“You can go find him according to this map.”
She thought for a moment and reminded them, “If he manages to escape again, you can stake out at the hospital. Perhaps he will go find Jodie.”
That
person traveled a long distance to Slovance to help Jodie deal with her situation.
It indicated that the two either had a very close relationship or there was a significant interest involved.
In any case, they would find a way to contact each other.
Skyler took the map and looked at the location Simone drew with a shocked expression. “Alright, thank you!”
Sean also looked surprised when he saw the location on the map.

Is this just an approximate location? This is clearly an exact location. She is really modest.
He looked at Simone and asked, “Are you interested in joining the Special Department? If you are, I can recommend you.”
With her strength, he developed a fondness for her.
Simone’s background and resume were not a problem. If they wanted to recruit her into the Special Department, their supervisor should approve.
He also wanted to recruit a strong teammate or a strong foreign aid for their team.
Simone smiled and politely shook her head. “Sorry, I’m not interested.”
She was not suitable to join the special department at the moment.
Sean smiled. “If you become interested later, you can contact me anytime.”
Skyler added, “You can also contact me.”
Simone nodded, “Okay!”
Then, the three of them exchanged contact information.
Since Simone’s phone was taken by the program group, she wrote their contact numbers on
paper.
They added her communication software number. Before they left, they reminded her to approve their friend request once she got her phone back.
Simone did not refuse.
She wanted to have more contact with Skyler and learn more about him.
She also wanted to learn more about the Special Department.
The two of them left quickly. Simone memorized their phone numbers and then tore up the paper and threw it in the trash can.
After taking a quick shower, she changed her clothes and went to the rooftop to have High
tea.
On the other side, at the hospital.
At the same time, Jodie woke up.
She found herself lying in bed with her brothers and Leon sitting beside her.
There were also several staff members from the production team.
Jodie was initially confused, wondering where she was. Then she remembered what had happened before.
She blinked her eyes and quickly reached out to touch her face.
She discovered that one of her hands was in a cast. Upon using her other intact hand to feel, she found a bandage wrapped around her forehead.
Unable to hold back, she exclaimed, “Ah! What happened to my head?”
Everyone heard her cry and turned to look, realizing that she had woken up.
Luca said, “Jo, you accidentally fell down the stairs earlier. Your forehead hit something, causing a big wound, so the doctor bandaged it for you.”
Jodie’s eyes widened. “A big wound Did I become disfigured? And what happened to my hand and leg? Why are they both in casts?”
Luca noticed how agitated she was. He stood up to reassure her, “Your hand and leg were. injured and fractured from the fall. Don’t worry; they will heal in due time. As for the scar on your forehead, if it remains, you can consider scar removal treatment. Don’t worry.”
Jodie couldn’t believe it. “No, it shouldn’t be like this.”
It is supposed to be Simone who becomes disfigured and breaks her hands and legs. How does it end up being me?
