Two weeks later, Mei Jin sent her a dashcam file.
Wan Ru opened it and saw that, just as Mei Jin had described, an oncoming truck suddenly swerved, but Chen Jiancheng quickly avoided it and crashed into the roadside barrier.
Wan Ru had no more questions, but then Mei Jin suddenly sent a message.
"Slow down the video at 14:51. Do you see what I see?"
Wan Ru's heart trembled. She followed Mei Jin's instructions, carefully observing the screen.
Even though it was just a fleeting second, she clearly saw a black shadow appear and disappear just as the truck swerved.
Wan Ru's eyes widened, and her hands clenched.
So, this incident and the accident involving the original owner's father were related, because this black shadow was exactly like the one Wan Ni had shown her.
Who did it? Was it the original owner or the person holding the system? But no matter who it was, she couldn't forgive them.
She called An Xin to arrange a meeting.
It was almost 10 PM. Wan Ru was dressed discreetly. Strangely, there was no traffic on the road today.
She struggled to hail a taxi. After waiting for more than ten minutes, a car finally arrived. After telling the driver the address, she messaged An Xin.
A moment later, the driver suddenly spoke.
"Huh?"
Wan Ru immediately felt uneasy and asked,
"What is it, Uncle?"
"Girl, where did you say you wanted to go just now?" the driver asked.
"I'm going to Building P!"
"There's no Building P here," the driver replied.
"Uncle, don't joke with me. You even entered it on the map just now, didn't you?" Wan Ru asked, frowning.
"But now I don't see it on my map anymore. Are you sure you have the right address?"
Wan Ru thought for a while, then told the driver to take her to another location and messaged An Xin to pick her up.
She was sure she hadn't made a mistake because she had checked the address on the map before leaving the house.
But when she checked again now, it wasn't there.
An Xin welcomed her into her home and asked,
"What happened?"
"My address disappeared halfway through the journey."
"Disappeared?" An Xin was surprised.
Wan Ru nodded, showing An Xin her phone screen, which displayed "not found" when she typed in Building P.
An Xin frowned and said,
"Someone has used the system!"
"How?" Wan Ru was confused.
"I also have a task like this, but I don't need to hide any addresses, so I didn't do it."
"What functions do your tasks include?" Wan Ru asked.
"Many. The system gives a lot of tasks to complete, but if I don't think they're necessary, I don't do them. For example, the function to hide an address, the function to track, the function to paralyze others, or the function to interfere with passersby, for example..." An Xin listed a series of functions for her.
"Interfere with passersby?"
"It means they will influence others to do something they want."
"So, can they make a driver swerve?" Wan Ru asked directly.
"I guess so. It seems like that task is difficult. I saw the system just say 'can directly intervene in an event,' so I think if they want to, they can do it."
"Damn it!" Wan Ru muttered under her breath.
"Did you just swear?" An Xin asked Wan Ru with a smile.
"I'm sorry."
Just as she had accurately guessed, the incidents involving Chen Jiancheng and the original owner's father were completely related, and moreover, they were caused by the system owner.
But currently, she didn't know who the system owner was; she could only rule out Chen Jiancheng, Mei Jin, and Ming Qian.
This time, it was because Chen Jiancheng dodged with his true strength; if that person were to strike again, it would be impossible to say what might happen.
"Xin An! Do you have any way to help me find out who possesses a system?" Wan Ru asked.
Xin An shook her head, then sighed and said, "I cannot interfere with this matter. Even if I have a system, that person might not know about it."
"Wait a minute..." Suddenly, Wan Ru thought of something.
Xin An looked at her intently. Wan Ru was silent for a moment before speaking. "Earlier, you said there was a mission that could track others? So, am I being tracked?"
Xin An frowned. "How did you know?"
"If I wasn't being tracked, then why was your address hidden when I was looking for you?"
"Ah!" Xin An seemed to realize something, then she laughed loudly and said to Wan Ru, "Oh no, we've lost. We don't even know who the other party is, yet all our actions have already been seen through."
Li Wanru fell silent. She began to piece everything together. She asked Xin An, "Xin An, how many functions do you still have in your system?"
"All of them. I don't need to do anything, so I haven't used them."
"That's great. If necessary, can you use them to help me?"
"Of course, I was created to help you!" Xin An smiled.
"If, unfortunately, I have to leave this place, please help me look after the original female lead, Chen Meijin, and the male lead in my life, Chen Jiancheng. They are very important to me. If you remain here, please help me with this."
Wan Ru looked at Xin An sincerely.
Xin An stopped smiling. She looked at Wan Ru for a while. Her heart was full of thoughts, but she still managed a smile and nodded at Wan Ru.
Li Wanru would not know that when she chose to leave this world, a character like Xin An would also disappear, and everything would return to its original rules.
