Chapter 274 The Blessing Continues, Keller Seeks Help

Li Yuan stood up with some surprise and took the backpack Megan handed him.

Upon first handling it, it felt quite heavy.

Remembering the somewhat hostile look in Emma's eyes when she saw him,

Fearing misunderstanding, Megan awkwardly explained to Li Yuan:

"I didn't rummage through her bag; it's just that the outer layer of her backpack was pierced by a sharp knife."

I took the backpack because I was afraid it would hurt the child.

Although Megan found Emma's gaze towards Li Yuan somewhat strange.

But she still respected the other person's privacy.

Li Yuan glanced at the knife tip sticking out from under the backpack and whispered to Megan:

"You did the right thing, Megan. Let me have a good talk with her."

At this moment, Emma was also brought over by Ross.

Ross glanced at Emma beside him with some concern, and whispered to Li Yuan:

"Your Excellency, perhaps this is just something Emma uses for self-defense."

Li Yuan didn't say anything more, but handed the backpack back to Emma and asked softly:

"Emma, ​​can you tell us what's here?"

Emma nodded with a smile without any hesitation.

He unzipped his backpack right in front of everyone.

The first thing that catches the eye is not a controlled knife or any dangerous goods.

Instead, it was a box of rather large fruit cakes.

But beneath the cake was the sharp knife piercing through the backpack.

Emma carefully reached out and took the cake out, then said sweetly to Li Yuan:

"This is what I bought with all my savings on the way here, hoping to celebrate our reunion."

As she spoke, Emma glanced at Megan deliberately, a hint of smugness flashing in her eyes.

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan immediately laughed. He gently patted Emma's head and said softly:

"Thank you, Emma."

Li Yuan felt a sense of warmth for a moment.

Although she still couldn't understand why Emma insisted on following her.

However, seeing the sharp knife in the backpack, Li Yuan still asked curiously:

"Why didn't the shop assistant give you a paper knife after you bought the cake?"

Emma shook her head innocently and said:

"I don't know either, she clearly gave me a paper knife."

As she spoke, Emma turned to look at Megan again, her words seemingly carrying a deeper meaning.

Rose, unaware of the truth, also looked at Megan, her eyes filled with confusion.

Emma's two meaningful glances immediately made Megan furious.

She said in a hurried tone:

"Li Yuan! I swear I didn't put that there!"

Li Yuan smiled and waved his hand, gently comforting her:

"Of course I know you didn't put it there. When will you ever calm down?"

Megan breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing this, then glanced at Emma with some displeasure.

Li Yuan took the cake and said to everyone:

"Knives and such are not important, let's eat the cake first."

He then changed the subject while cutting the cake.

This minor dispute has come to an end.

One hour ago,

In an apartment not far from Wilshire Avenue,

The boy, Levi, was tightly strapped to a chair in the restaurant.

There was a pair of smelly socks stuffed in his mouth.

The kitchen was a mess, littered with flour and eggshells.

Next to the stove, there were some bloodstained murder weapons.

The air was filled with the strong smell of gas.

Slightly dizzy, Levi was sweating profusely and struggling with his hands.

Levi had loosened the knot.

The girl wasn't very strong, so the rope wasn't tied very securely.

He needs to hurry, because as the gas supply increases...

Even if there is no explosion, he would die from carbon monoxide poisoning.

A moment later, Levi finally managed to free his hands from the ropes.

He yanked the smelly sock out of his mouth and gagged twice.

He staggered to the stove and turned off the valve, then mustered all his strength to open the window.

"vomit--"

Levi gagged again.

But the fresh air filling his nasal cavity gave him a sense of relief, as if he had just escaped death.

After catching his breath, Levi cursed with a ferocious expression:

"You damn little bitch, I'll remember you!"

Levi glanced back at the messy kitchen.

He cursed again, then helplessly began to clean up the mess.

At the same time, he put a bloodstained screwdriver that Emma had left behind into his pocket.

He secretly swore an oath.

Next time we meet, I'll use it to end that bitch's life.

the next morning,

Li Yuan led Christopher and the Ross family back to the entrance of the Holy Light Agency.

After getting off the bus, Li Yuan said goodbye to the family of four.

Christopher and Ross took the children to complete the adoption procedures.

Li Yuan, on the other hand, returned to his firm.

Preparing to begin a new day of blessing activities,

After yesterday's overwhelming scene,

The number of people today has not decreased, but rather increased.

Those who unexpectedly joined the crowd yesterday, after personally experiencing the benefits of the blessing,

They all returned home, calling out to their friends and family.

They rushed over to join the Holy Light Cult.

Of course, there were also some protesters holding signs to combat cults.

However, no one paid them any attention.

Li Yuan forgot about the endless queue and was quite pleased:

"Looks like it's going to be another busy day."

He instructed Edward and Jamie to maintain order.

Today's blessing ceremony has begun.

However, the person who was first in line at this moment

It turned out to be an acquaintance that surprised Li Yuan.

"You are...Keller?"

The person who arrived was the female reporter that Li Yuan had met on the plane when he flew to Seattle.

Because of her outstanding temperament, Li Yuan was deeply impressed by her.

"That's right, it's me, Mr. Li Yuan."

Keller nervously smoothed a stray hair behind her ear.

Forcing a smile, he explained his purpose to Li Yuan:

"Well, Mr. Li Yuan, I'd like to ask you some questions about paranormal matters."

"Yes, please come in."

Li Yuan gestured for Keller to enter the store, then instructed Edward:

"Edward, please greet Miss Keller."

Then, Li Yuan smiled and said to Keller:

"Please talk to my assistant about what happened to you first, and we'll decide how to resolve it later."

Upon hearing Li Yuan's words, a look of anxiety immediately appeared on Keller's face.

She pointed at Edward and said with some concern:

"But......"

Seeing this, Li Yuan quickly spoke up to comfort him:

"Don't worry, Miss Keller."

Edward is also an excellent exorcist.

He will provide an accurate analysis of the situation you're facing.

Keller sensed the confidence in Li Yuan's tone, so he could only nod with some skepticism:

"All right."

As he spoke, he followed behind Edward, who had a smile on his face.

We went to an office on the first floor and started talking about our recent experiences.

Li Yuan looked at the believers in front of the door and waved his hand, saying:

"Praise be to the Holy Light, family members, let us continue our blessing activities."

The believer who was second in line immediately smiled happily.

He thought Li Yuan would go to handle the commission and the blessing ceremony would be suspended.

"Praise be to the Holy Light, Your Excellency!"

Hearing the noise outside the window, Keller turned and glanced at the frenzied crowd.

My mind was filled with doubt; I didn't know how this exorcism agency could have so many people.

In a short while, Edward recounted the situation Keller had encountered.

The document was compiled and handed to Li Yuan, who was bestowing blessings.

Li Yuan glanced at it briefly, his brows furrowing slightly.

He whispered to Edward:

"Leave Miss Keller here; I will speak with her in detail after the blessing is finished."

With just a glance, Li Yuan already knew what kind of trouble Keller was in.

To be honest, it's not in a rush, because there are time constraints.

Keller, though somewhat anxious after receiving Edward's response,

But seeing the long line of people outside, they had no choice but to wait patiently.

Soon, the busy day came to an end.

Today went very smoothly, and Li Yuan blessed 533 believers.

Looking at the believers who hadn't yet reached the front of the line,

Li Yuan had no choice but to inform them that the next round of blessing activities would take place on the 18th of this month.

There's no way around it; if we keep holding these blessing ceremonies...

Li Yuan doesn't even have time to take on commissions anymore.

After everything was over, Li Yuan returned to his office to look for Keller.

Seeing that Li Yuan had finally arrived, Keller quickly stood up and said excitedly:

"Mr. Li Yuan! Please help me, I'm truly cursed!"
