While in Hollywood, I used Taoist magic to quell American terrorism.

Susan looked at Cao Kun and asked, "Are you sure you can?"

Cao Kun didn't speak, but simply took out a talisman and displayed it in front of the receptionist.

The next moment, the talisman suddenly turned into a ball of flame, and then quickly dissipated.

At that moment, a strange light flashed in the receptionist's eyes, and his previously aloof face suddenly broke into a smile.

Cao Kun said, "We want to see Miranda."

The receptionist readily agreed: "Of course, please wait a moment, I'll have someone bring her over right away."

After saying that, he immediately went to make the arrangements.

They didn't even let Cao Kun and his group register.

After he left, both Little Robert and Susan looked at Cao Kun with surprise.

Susan asked in a low voice, "How did you do that?"

Cao Kun: "That's not important, as long as we can see Miranda later."

Susan nodded, but her heart was still full of curiosity.

Little Radish laughed and said, "I told you, Master Cao is a very powerful exorcist."

Susan, who had initially had some doubts, is now completely convinced.

She gave the little radish a grateful look.

It is indeed difficult to change someone's attitude, even for Cao Kun.

But if it's just a temporary change, it will be much simpler for Cao.

It can be done simply by using talismans and magic to shake the other person's soul and influence their spirit.

However, this won't last long; after a while, the other party will realize what's happening.

Miranda was quickly brought out, and upon seeing Susan, she was both surprised and delighted: "Susan, Donnie. And who is this?"

The character Miranda in the movie is played by Halle Berry.

Now, in reality, she's not Harley Quinn anymore, but she's still a beautiful woman.

However, the black man in the movie was changed to a white man.

She was also in her thirties, but much taller than Susan, standing at least 30 meters tall.

Even though she was wearing a hospital gown, you could still tell that she had a very attractive figure.

Cao Kun was a little puzzled as to how Susan could become her best friend.

Standing together, I was completely outshone.

Upon hearing Miranda's question, Susan quickly replied, "This is Master Cao, a very powerful exorcist. We invited him to help you."

"Exorcist!"

Miranda's eyes lit up, and she leaned forward, staring intently at Cao Kun: "Master Cao, please help me. I've encountered a ghost. I didn't kill my husband; it was that girl who did it. She's not human."

Miranda was so excited that she became somewhat incoherent.

However, Cao Kun easily understood what she meant.

Cao Kun's gaze fell on her arm, where a bandage was wrapped around it.

Seeing Cao Kun's gaze fixed on her arm, Miranda untied the cloth strip herself without Cao Kun saying a word.

The words formed by the scars on the surface read: "There is one more person."

Susan and Robert had obviously seen these scars before, so it wasn't surprising to them.

He simply asked Cao Kun, "Master Cao, what does this mean?"

Cao Kun didn't answer, but looked at Miranda.

Miranda looked at him, her eyes full of expectation.

She hoped that Cao Kun could truly help her.

In the movie, she is a relatively calm person who eventually escapes and uncovers the truth.

But now that horror has become reality, she has lost her protagonist aura and can't even escape.

Let alone finding out the truth and exonerating themselves.

However, her case was not complicated, especially for Cao Kun, who knew the full story.

Meeting Miranda's expectant gaze, Cao Kun asked, "Besides home and the hospital, do you know where your husband often goes?"

"A place you frequented?" Miranda tried hard to remember, then her eyes suddenly lit up: "I remember now, the day I had the accident, he told me he was going to that place."

Cao Kun: "Where is it?"

Miranda: "Huang Guxi".

Cao Kun then asked, "Where is it, and how far is it?"

Miranda: "It's over 100 kilometers from the city. It's a dilapidated village with hardly anyone left. But my husband likes to go fishing there."

Every time he came back from there, he would bring some small fish.

Susan said, "Miranda told me about this, Master Cao, is there a problem?"

Cao Kun sneered, "The problem is too big, but it's also the key to exonerating Miranda."

Miranda's face lit up with joy: "Master Cao, can you really exonerate me?"

Cao Kun: "Does your husband have a police chief friend?"

Miranda looked at Susan: "Did you tell Master Cao?"

Susan quickly said, "I didn't say anything."

Little Radish chimed in, "I don't have any either."

Just as Miranda was about to ask something, Cao Kun said, "Now is not the time to ask these things. You just need to answer my questions."

Miranda thought about it and agreed, saying, "Yes, that sheriff's name is Ryan, and he's a very good friend of my husband. They often drink together."

Cao Kun: "Then everything makes sense."

"What matches?" Miranda and the others didn't understand.

Cao Kun didn't answer: "I'll make a phone call."

He took out his phone, walked to the side, and called Sheriff Ford.

The call was quickly answered, and Sheriff Ford's voice came through: "Good morning, Master Cao. What can I do for you?"

Cao Kun cut to the chase: "Do you want a credit?"

Sheriff Ford paused for a moment, then asked, "Another credit?"

The reason he said "again" is because what happened at Lawrence's store a few days ago was a significant achievement for him.

That's why he was so willing to smooth things over for Cao Kun and take on all the cleanup work.

Cao Kun: "Do you want the credit for eliminating a scoundrel from within your ranks?"

"From within our own ranks?" Sheriff Ford hesitated. "From our department?"

Cao Kun: "No, the other party's level is also very high, the same level as you."

"Sheriff?" Sheriff Ford hesitated even more; he didn't want to do something that would offend people. "What did he do? Is the evidence sufficient?"

Cao Kun: "Absolutely. The crimes he committed are enough to put him in prison for life, of course, that is, if he is captured alive."

"Such a serious crime?" Sheriff Ford became interested.

If it's just a minor offense, then you're making enemies for yourself.

It will also attract some disapproving looks and opinions from within the organization, which is very detrimental to oneself.

But if it's a serious crime that could land you in jail for life, then wouldn't that be a great achievement?

With such merit, it's possible to be promoted.

Sheriff Ford: "What do you need me to do?"

Cao Kun: "You just need to bring a few people with you to be my witnesses."

"No problem, where are you? I'll bring men over right away." Sheriff Ford had no more worries.

There are many options available when it comes to bearing witness.

You can choose to expose this matter, or you can choose not to.

After hanging up the phone, Cao Kun returned to his table and sat down. Meeting the questioning gazes of the others, Cao Kun said, "It's all arranged. Miranda, just wait a little longer, she should be out soon."

"Really?" Miranda was both surprised and delighted.

Under Miranda's expectant gaze, Cao Kun bid her farewell and left the mental hospital with Robert and Susan.

After waiting outside for a while, Cao Kun saw a police car drive up and stop in front of them.

Three people got out of the car: Sheriff Ford, Laura, and a white male police officer in his late twenties who looked quite composed.

Sheriff Ford introduced him as Kane. Since he was brought out by Sheriff Ford, he must be one of her confidants, or at least someone she trusts.

After Cao Kun introduced the two sides, he made the arrangements: "I'll leave my car here. Susan, you'll ride in Sheriff Ford's car and tell them about Miranda's case."

Donnie, you drive ahead and lead the way.
