[The King on Mountain Patrol: Master, you're incredible! One talisman can solve everything!]
As the viewers began discussing it, Lin Fan spoke.
"Lin Yuxin, don't celebrate too soon," Lin Fan said coolly.
"Everything has its cause and consequence. You will never have another child. That is the bitter consequence you must bear."
Both Buddhism and Taoism emphasized cause and consequence.
The gods watched from above. Everyone needed to retain a sense of reverence and not degrade themselves.
"I can't have children?"
Lin Yuxin fell silent. She did not ask Lin Fan for further help. She had abandoned all her children, and heaven had punished her by making her unable to have any more. It all seemed perfectly reasonable.
A moment later, she moved.
Lin Yuxin thanked Lin Fan, turned, and left the shop.
As she left, she said to Bai Xiaobai, "Xiao Bai, we have to make amends for our mistakes eventually. Admit what you did to the master."
Bai Xiaobai froze. She had never expected her best friend to urge her to admit her wrongdoing.
No!
She couldn't admit it!
Bai Xiaobai knew Xiao Tuantuan was livestreaming. If she admitted it, all her crimes would be exposed to the public.
She might end up in prison then.
[Boss Xiu: Lin Yuxin is fourteen, so Bai Xiaobai should be fourteen too, right? If she's between fourteen and sixteen, I don't think she has to go to prison even if she really hit someone. At most, she'd have to pay the medical expenses, and her guardian would be held responsible.]
[Lawyer Taozi: The person above is right. As long as Bai Xiaobai is fourteen, she won't have to bear much responsibility!]
[Ragdoll Cat: Why???]
[Ninety Below Zero: That's just reality!]
"Master, someone in the chat says a fourteen-year-old minor can't be held criminally responsible for a traffic accident!"
Xiao Tuantuan glanced at the chat and asked curiously, "Is that true?"
Hearing that, Lin Fan responded.
Lin Fan nodded and smiled faintly. "That's true, but who told you Bai Xiaobai was fourteen?"
"She took two years off school. In fact, she turned sixteen the day before the accident!"
The moment he finished speaking, Bai Xiaobai jerked her head up and shouted, "I didn't hit anyone! Stop making things up!"
With that, she moved.
She turned and left immediately.
Lin Fan turned and said softly, "Xiao Tuantuan, follow her. Those who refuse to repent will eventually pay for their mistakes."
Without hesitating, Xiao Tuantuan raised her phone, pointed the camera at Bai Xiaobai's retreating back, and followed her out.
Chapter 56: Good and Evil Both Have Their Due-Bai Xiaobai's Fate!
Bai Xiaobai left the shop and walked out onto the street in a daze.
Images kept flashing through her mind.
They showed her driving a sports car and hitting a pregnant woman.
"I only hit you by accident. I didn't know you would miscarry. This wasn't my fault."
A little while later, she reached her destination.
Bai Xiaobai reached the end of Taihe Street and stood by the road to wait for a ride.
[Boss Xiu: Holy shit, look! Why is there a dark shadow behind Bai Xiaobai?]
[Begonias Still Bloom: I see it too! The master's shop was too dim for me to notice earlier, but it's so obvious now.]
[Ragdoll Cat: Scary! Is Xiao Tuantuan using a special effect?]
"It's not a special effect," Xiao Tuantuan said. "What I see on the livestream is completely different from what I see with my own eyes!"
She moved her phone aside and looked at Bai Xiaobai, but she could not see any dark shadow.
When she brought her phone back and aimed the camera at Bai Xiaobai, the dark shadow appeared on the screen again.
Xiao Tuantuan swallowed. Could there be something wrong with her phone?
The more she considered it, the more terrifying it became.
She dared not think any further. Still, she had the Peace Talisman Master Lin had given her. If anything supernatural really happened, she should be all right!
"Don't worry. It's not what you're imagining."
Just then, Lin Fan came up beside Xiao Tuantuan and said calmly, "People go through three periods of decline and six of prosperity. There are three yang flames on the head and shoulders. Two of hers have gone out, which is why you can see that cloud of black mist."
He had noticed it back in the shop.
Lin Fan had already spotted something strange about Bai Xiaobai. Even without using the Qi-Observing Technique, he could vaguely see the black mist around her.
[Boss Xiu: Master, did you tell Xiao Tuantuan to livestream Bai Xiaobai because something is about to happen to her?]
[Ragdoll Cat: She hit someone and refused to admit it, made someone else take the blame, and even caused a pregnant woman to lose her baby. Bai Xiaobai is definitely going to be punished!]
[Fan Fan: Master, tell her fortune! What's going to happen to Bai Xiaobai?]
The viewers were intensely curious. They wanted to know whether Bai Xiaobai would be punished.
"One more minute. Be patient."
Lin Fan checked the time, then looked up at Bai Xiaobai as he silently began counting down.
Hearing the words "one more minute," the viewers perked up.
Every one of them watched the livestream intently, afraid of missing anything.
A minute passed in the blink of an eye.
"Stop that thief!"
Suddenly, someone came running toward them from nearby. A woman was chasing a thief.
"Get the hell out of my way!"
The thief looked vicious, shoving aside everyone coming toward him.
The next moment, he reached Bai Xiaobai.
Seeing Bai Xiaobai blocking his path, the thief shoved her hard without the slightest hesitation.
Bai Xiaobai was still in a daze. Before she could react, she stumbled out onto the road.
As fate would have it, a car approached.
The driver had no time to react and slammed straight into Bai Xiaobai.
[Old Wang in the Mountains: Holy shit, exactly one minute!]
[Ragdoll Cat: Master Lin is amazing! He actually predicted the exact time something would happen to Bai Xiaobai!]
[Fan Fan on the Sewing Machine: Who would've thought? Bai Xiaobai committed a hit-and-run before, and now she's the one getting hit.]
[Universe’s Greatest Saintly Mother: Ha! What a bullshit "Master Lin." He knew someone would be in a car accident, yet he did nothing. And the driver is a victim in this accident too!]
[Urban Hunter: The saintly mother has a point in the second half. The driver has to pay compensation for hitting someone, so this isn't good for the driver either. Master Lin could have prevented this disaster.]
Standing behind Xiao Tuantuan, Lin Fan saw the comments in the public chat and smiled faintly. "If it were another driver, I would have stopped it. But take a look at who the driver is."
A moment later, the driver got out.
He hurried over to Bai Xiaobai, his face filled with disbelief and panic.
"Xiao Bai! Are you all right?"
"It's Dad! Please wake up!"
"Don't be scared. I'll take you to the hospital right away!"
The driver was a middle-aged man. Trembling all over, he carried Bai Xiaobai into the car and sped toward the hospital.
[Boss Xiu: Awesome! It's Bai Xiaobai's father!]
[Ragdoll Cat: No wonder Master Lin chose not to intervene. He knew who the driver was all along!]
[Urban Hunter: Interesting. Master Lin clearly distinguishes right from wrong. He really is a good person.]
[Jiangzhou Uncle Cop: This isn't acceptable. Her father did nothing wrong. Why should he have to suffer?]
[Fan Fan on the Sewing Machine: A child's failings are the father's fault for not teaching them! Just look at me!]
"Her father made a grave mistake!"
Lin Fan said coldly, "Jiangzhou Uncle Cop, you can go question the woman who took the blame. Tell her that as long as she tells the truth, I can save her son."
"Bai Xiaobai didn't have to flee at all. After hitting the woman that day, she called her father. He was the one who told her to run!"
The entire plan had been arranged by Bai Xiaobai's father.
That included finding someone to take the blame and having Bai Xiaobai flee the scene before anyone arrived.
[Jiangzhou Uncle Cop: We'll question her right away!]
Seeing that message, Lin Fan nodded and said, "Once you've questioned her, let everyone know the results."
They returned to the shop.
Less than half an hour later, Jiangzhou Uncle Cop's investigation results came in.
Bai Xiaobai was confirmed as the actual driver responsible for the accident, and her father was arrested as well. By arranging for someone else to take the blame, he had crossed the line into criminal conduct.
As for the woman who had taken the blame, she was actually someone to be pitied.
Her son was only three years old, but he had a rare disease that required enormous medical expenses.
