Then let the witch offer her loyalty

Liu Lan is a witch with the ability to "act on behalf of others".

The proxy itself is not affected by the madness, but when the proxy uses psychic energy, the erosion will be fed back to the witch through the spiritual contract.

Although Liu Lan is now under control, her proxy Zhang Hao has not yet been apprehended.

If Zhang Hao uses his psionic powers recklessly outside, then Liu Lan is a ticking time bomb trapped inside the bureau, potentially causing disaster at any moment.

But she kept her mouth shut, refusing to say or talk about anything, which made the investigation very difficult.

Just as Luo Shoucheng was pondering his next strategy...

"Watch out!!!" A loud shout suddenly rang out.

Chen Moxin flipped over the table and leaped towards Liu Lan: "There's something in her mouth!"

None of his colleagues, including Luo Shoucheng, reacted in time.

Liu Lan didn't react either.

Suddenly my mouth was stuffed full.

Chen Moxin's fingers.

"Ugh...ugh!..."

Chen Moxin pinched Liu Lan's cheek with one hand and reached into her mouth with the other, probing back and forth.

Her hands were handcuffed to the chair, and she couldn't resist at all. She choked, her face turned red, and she kept sobbing, saliva uncontrollably flowing from the corners of her lips.

Luo Shoucheng rushed up after him, shouting, "What happened?!"

Chen Moxin pulled her finger out of Liu Lan's mouth and said innocently, "I saw her lips moving and thought she was hiding something in her mouth... I guess I was overthinking it."

"Cough cough! Cough..."

Seeing that Liu Lan was coughing so hard she was about to cough up her lungs, Luo Shoucheng gave Chen Moxin a severe dressing-down: "Who told you to move around like that? Sit back down!"

After saying that, he walked up to Liu Lan and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

Liu Lan was so angry her face turned pale. She lost control and yelled, "Why are you touching me like that?! You even shoved your hand in my mouth! It's disgusting! I'm going to file a complaint!!!"

In an instant, two lines of prompts popped up in front of Chen Moxin's eyes:

[Current task: Break Liu Lan's silence and get her to speak (Completed)]

[Reward: Implanting "Mind Intervention - Beginning" into Liu Lan]

A strange light appeared from the system panel, visible only to Chen Moxin; the others were completely unaware of it.

The strange light entered Liu Lan's eyes, blooming into a dazzling ray in the center of her pupil. As it merged, it transformed into a crescent-shaped mark, and finally slowly disappeared.

Luo Shoucheng turned around and glared at Chen Moxin, then said to Liu Lan in a reassuring tone, "Our young comrade is a bit reckless, but he doesn't have any bad intentions. I hope you can understand."

"If you insist on pursuing this matter, the 'judge' is present now, and you can file a formal complaint with her."

At this moment, besides Liu Lan and the agents of Special Investigation Team 9, a young girl was also sitting at the table in the interrogation room.

The girl had an extremely delicate and beautiful face, with skin so white it was almost translucent, and long white hair that flowed down to her waist like strands of snow. Most striking were her eyes, with a rare rose-red iris color.

She wore a black uniform, the exquisite tailoring highlighting her slender figure perfectly. A red armband on her arm featured a pattern of intertwined white roses and sharp blades, exuding an indescribable, cold beauty.

The girl's name is "Luo Lingyou," and she is a "judge" in the Twin Cities' "Court of Judgments."

Like the Witch Administration Bureau, the Tribunal for the Judgment is an official organization under the Rose Empire.

Since the control of psychic energy and the fight against madness are among the Empire's primary national policies, the Witch Administration can mobilize various resources to a great extent and has a high degree of autonomy when handling cases involving psychic energy.

Such excessive power, if left unchecked, is itself a disaster.

The Tribunal for the Criminal Investigation Division was established for this purpose. It is an organization specifically responsible for supervising and managing the Bureau, and judges like Luo Lingyou are stationed in various departments of the Bureau.

Judges will exercise oversight in their daily work, and if any staff member of the Administration Bureau violates regulations during case handling, they will decide whether to report it and take disciplinary action, depending on the circumstances.

Upon hearing that a judge could file a complaint, Liu Lan subconsciously looked at Chen Moxin across from her.

The thought of being interrupted by a man other than her fiancé, his fingers poking around in her mouth, made her tremble with anger. Despite the hot weather, she was covered in cold sweat and her hands and feet were ice-cold. Her heart was filled with a sense of humiliation.

But for some reason, she couldn't feel any disgust towards the offending boy.

They were just doing their job, worried she might be hiding something... If you put yourself in her shoes, you can understand.

Moreover, Chen Moxin was now looking down at her with a guilty expression, like a child who had made a mistake.

Combined with his already exquisitely handsome face...

I really can't bring myself to hate it.

Liu Lan was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, "I'll let it go this time, but don't touch me again."

As she spoke, no one outside could see that a crescent-shaped light was faintly shimmering deep within her pupils.

After a brief hiatus, the interrogation continued.

But Liu Lan returned to her original state, saying nothing.

Luo Shoucheng felt that this was a waste of time and decided to stop wasting his efforts. He tidied up the documents on the table, stood up, and said, "Let's call it a day for now and let the forensic department analyze the scene before we talk about it."

"Imprison Liu Lan. Pay special attention: according to feedback from the 'witch hunters' involved in this operation, Liu Lan possesses some kind of spatial psychic ability, allowing her to teleport objects."

"Put her in a solitary cell and keep her under strict guard. Report any abnormalities immediately and activate the emergency plan."

Two agents took Liu Lan away.

As Chen Moxin was about to leave, a figure approached him, accompanied by a faint scent of strawberry perfume.

It was the judge, Luo Lingyou.

She took a wet wipe out of her pocket and handed it to Chen Moxin.

Chen Moxin's hands were covered in Liu Lan's saliva, and she hadn't had time to wash them because she was recording the interrogation process.

He took the wet wipe and smiled politely at Luo Lingyou: "Thank you, Miss Judge."

Luo Lingyou didn't say anything, but took out a strawberry-flavored lollipop from his pocket, unwrapped it, and put it in his mouth.

She glanced at Chen Moxin with a hint of interest, then, still chewing on her candy, turned and left.

While wiping her hands with a wet wipe, Chen Moxin called up the system panel to check.

The task details have changed.

【Task Update】

[There is a spiritual bond between the proxy and the witch. When the proxy uses spiritual energy, it causes a madness to accumulate and erode within the witch's body.]

If the witch were to unleash her madness within the game, the consequences would be immeasurable.

You must find this proxy, and only the witch herself knows his whereabouts.

[Current task: Get Liu Lan to personally reveal the whereabouts of the person she is acting on behalf of]

[Task Reward 1: Implant "Mental Interference - Chaos" into Liu Lan]

[Mental Interference - Chaos: Imprints a mark on the target's subconscious, creating a psychological impact. The target's affinity for the host will be further strengthened, trust will develop, and they will be more likely to believe what the host says.]

[Task Reward Two: Absorb Liu Lan's extraordinary factors and obtain the psionic energy "Phase Shift"]

Chapter 3: If your family owns a mine, why bother taking the civil service exam?

Today is Friday, and the next two days are rest days.

However, as one of the most special organizations in the Rose Empire, the Witch Administration Bureau works in shifts even on weekends to ensure that someone is on duty 24 hours a day to deal with emergencies.

Chen Mo was naturally assigned to the Psychological Counseling Center.

After the interrogation, Luo Shoucheng approached him and asked him to come to the bureau over the weekend to work overtime and organize the materials for Liu Lan's case.

As for non-permanent positions, as long as they don't die from overwork, use them to the extreme.

At 17:30 PM, it was time to leave work, and Chen Moxin prepared to go home for dinner.

Stepping out of the management bureau's gate, a bustling scene comes into view.

According to the original owner's memories, the technology in this world is more advanced than the world before Chen Moxin transmigrated.

As the evening sun sets, it casts its glow on the skyscrapers, and everywhere you look, you see colorful neon lights and commercial advertisements. Trains, which run on elevated tracks, weave between the buildings; these are all low-altitude public transportation vehicles set up by the government.

Pedestrians wearing augmented reality glasses hurried by on the street, brushing past cleaning robots that were using telescopic arms to clean up trash. A holographic screen in a nearby shop was playing yesterday's concert, and the 3D projection made it seem as if the cello bow was about to brush against people's noses.

Chen Moxin admired the technologically advanced cityscape for a while, then entered the underground parking garage and drove towards the affluent northern area of ​​the Twin Cities.

After transmigrating, he became a rich second-generation heir.

It's impossible to pinpoint exactly when the Chen family started to become incredibly wealthy, but by the time it reached his father, Chen Wenzhe, they had more money than they could ever spend.

When Chen Wenzhe was young, he always felt that money is something you can't take with you when you die.

The saddest thing for a person is to die before they've spent all their money.

Therefore, he should have squandered his fortune while he was alive; it would have been best if he had squandered it all.

But things didn't go as planned.

The more you spend, the more money you accumulate.

He tried stock trading, specifically buying those junk stocks that nobody wanted.

As a result, once the funds were invested, the company was revitalized, and whichever stock we bought skyrocketed, and our account never turned green.

He also tried being a freeloader, doing charity work and giving money to whoever was in a bad situation.

However, those who received assistance later turned their lives around and returned to our homes to repay the kindness with dozens or even hundreds of times the amount they had received. If we refused to accept their donations, they would sit on the ground and refuse to leave.

In a fit of rage, he began desperately seeking out women, spending his days indulging in debauchery at nightclubs.

The problem is, how much does it cost to hire women? Even hiring ten top-tier models in one go would only cost a few hundred thousand to a million.

I've been eating all year round, and while my wallet hasn't shrunk much, my kidneys are starting to give out.

As for some of the most expensive things...

Sorry, but according to the Chen family's ancestral precepts, gambling and drugs are mortal enemies.

So, faced with spending more and more money, Chen Wenzhe gave up, gave up, and became complacent.

He entrusted the heavy responsibility to his only son, Chen Moxin.

Chen Wenzhe's greatest wish in life is for his son to inherit the family business and help him to spend the family money carefully and diligently.

Therefore, when he learned that his son had taken a temporary position at the Witch Administration Bureau and was determined to take the civil service exam to become a full-fledged civil servant and dedicate his life to the empire, Chen Wenzhe was so angry that he couldn't sleep for several days.

...

When Chen Moxin returned to her family manor after get off work, dinner had already been prepared by the servants.

Chen Wenzhe didn't wait for his son; he started eating with a stern face.

To express his dissatisfaction, the meal consisted only of home-style dishes such as imperial Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, wild sea cucumber, white sturgeon caviar, and beef.

It only cost tens of thousands of yuan.

Chen Moxin sat down and began to eat.

Chen Wenzhe asked with a displeased expression, "How was work today? Did you get fired?"

Chen Moxin shook her head: "No."

Chen Wenzhe became anxious: "Why haven't you been fired yet? Do you know that if you work for the government, you must abide by government regulations, and you can't just spend the money at home as you please?"

Chen Moxin hummed in agreement: "I know, it's okay."

Chen Wenzhe was immediately furious.

This son has become stupid from studying too much!

Back when the nine-year compulsory education ended, he wanted his son to come back and inherit the family business, to live a carefree life as a rich second-generation heir and not have to study anymore.

Now look what's happened. They've been led astray in high school and college, spending all their time reading Confucian classics, only to end up dedicating their precious youth to the country.

What will happen to the family's money?!

Look at Old Zhang's son next door, he goes to nightclubs every day to party and has brought back several grandchildren, a different one every week.

When will Old Chen have that kind of good fortune?!

She had tried to persuade her son several times with the family's situation, but Chen Moxin wouldn't listen.
