I didn’t betray the country, right? I don’t need to pick my own charges, do I?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Wang Qiqi chatting with the fox spirit and completely ignoring him, Xiang Geqiang gritted his teeth, raised his hand, and asked Wang Qiqi about the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you want to be handed over to the prosecution?” Wang Qiqi looked at Xiang Geqiang. “What about the victim list?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you don’t hand over the items, how am I supposed to send you to detention?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Qiqi was not an aggressive logger; for criminals posing no threat, she usually handed them over to the prosecution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for a nobody like Xiang Geqiang, Wang Qiqi had no intention of using violent interrogation—she simply demanded the list, then transferred all involved parties to the prosecution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, she would hand the victim list to the logistics support team members, who would notify all victims, gather them together, and conduct anti-fraud education while explaining Xiang Geqiang’s scam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hello? Are you He Ying, Ma Cuifeng’s daughter? This is the Anquan Bureau. You live in Building 501, Jingzhen Power Plant Staff Dormitory, and you’re currently running a travel agency with Lin Junzhe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We formally notify you that your mother’s teacher, Xiang Geqiang, has been arrested for espionage and impersonating a senior administrative official. After this call ends, you’ll receive a text message with the detention center’s address. You must arrive at the designated detention center within two hours to cooperate with our investigation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Ying sat at her desk, planning tomorrow’s schedule, staring blankly at her phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the cold, hostile tone on the other end, and seeing the Anquan Bureau logo and national emblem on her screen, He Ying sucked in a sharp breath and immediately turned toward the living room:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Professor Xiang! Ah, damn it! Xiang Geqiang’s been arrested for espionage and impersonating a senior official!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As He Ying shouted, Ma Cuifeng’s phone on the table also rang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the vibrating screen, the Anquan Bureau logo and national emblem were clearly displayed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Cuifeng swallowed hard and looked at He Ying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You answer it, daughter—I really don’t know anything! I don’t know any Xiang Geqiang or Ma Qiang!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Ying quickly picked up the call. The voice on the other end was still cold and hostile, delivering the same notification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both phones received a text message. He Ying immediately entered the address into Baidu Maps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baidu Maps showed nothing there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But some local forums, due to keyword triggers, found related posts—netizens confirmed it was indeed a massive prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Ying: “Mom, you bought health supplements and got a multi-year gym membership!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Cuifeng: “...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【The wish to preserve the startup has been fulfilled. Xiang Geqiang scammed over forty microloan platforms, using knowledge from the Superpower Classroom and spirit herbs to exploit information asymmetry and raise massive funds, all while researching spirit herb components with nothing but air. Though Xiang Geqiang had no intention of defaulting, the spirit herbs were illusions—hundreds of families will suffer devastating losses because of him.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Wish Power +3】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Wish Power: 6 points】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On his way back to the hotel, An Sheng noticed his wish list flickering in his mind. He opened it and saw He Ying’s wish had been fulfilled—his Wish Power had reached six points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He earned one point from the village-level tea competition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other two points came from An Sheng’s earlier act of transcribing the last words of the deceased at Jiule City Hospital and mailing them to their families, receiving feedback in return—though delays may have occurred due to postal service.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Including He Ying and the hundreds of families behind her, who contributed three points, An Sheng now had six Wish Power points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tsk tsk.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the wish settlement interface, An Sheng muttered under his breath:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Want to raise funds to replicate the Longevity Club’s potion? Even if I analyze the formula for you, the main ingredients are spirit beast flesh and blood.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“With two-thirds of Qing’s power and no firearms, how are you supposed to hunt spirit beasts? I could grab a spirit cockroach and it’d wipe the floor with you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Geqiang exploited information asymmetry to swindle money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But due to that same asymmetry, even if he succeeded in raising funds, he’d still collapse—because this whole thing was, at its core, a setup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Geqiang thought he was the house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the real big house was the mastermind behind the Superpower Classroom, whom the loggers were investigating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those people were true professionals—they completed brainwashing, manipulation, and escape in one seamless operation before the Anquan Bureau caught even a trace, leaving no evidence behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, with Changancheng’s surveillance cameras and advanced facial recognition, those people would be caught within five minutes of exposure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng shook his head and pushed thoughts of Xiang Geqiang out of his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was just a little fox—what did he have to do with gods fighting among themselves?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better to think about how to earn Wish Power and upgrade his four tails to five.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since arriving in Changancheng,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>due to its proximity to the Qinling Mountains, the number and resilience of spirit beasts here far surpassed those in Jiule City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Li Lao Ye expressed anxiety—he felt his hammer was too light and needed more weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back at the hotel, Fu Li Lao Ye’s items, which should have stayed in Zhangxizhen’s ancestral home, had been air-freighted to Changancheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from the tea trees cultivated by Fu Li Lao Ye, all other items were temporarily stored in the underground storage room of Fenghuangcheng Community.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng saw his potted plants and immediately beamed, closing his eyes in bliss, lifting his hind leg to aim at the sapling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But An Sheng didn’t notice that the tiny tea tree inside the pot had unfurled its branches and veins, radiating an aura of pleasure—as if the Titanic’s bow had just plunged into the ocean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way! Lin Ying! I just remembered something—can you help me apply for a patent? Because it involves irradiation technology, I’m worried Chen Zhi won’t be able to complete the patent and safety approvals.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next month! Though I’m in Changancheng, I, An Sheng, will also participate in the municipal tea competition.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After watering the plants, An Sheng politely rubbed his fur against the leaves, then ran into the room to find Lin Ying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? Irradiation sterilization and tea?” Lin Ying frowned at Fu Li Lao Ye. “Explain first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s like this...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you thinking about? You look so gloomy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Mo Yiqing’s home, Yu Xueqing, just finished talking with her family, sat cross-legged on the bed, arms crossed, head tilted as if straining to think.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yiqing, freshly bathed, walked toward the bed, wiping her long hair, curiously asking:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nothing. I’m just thinking about An Sheng—he’s been gone almost a week now.” Yu Xueqing sighed. “Except for the first two days, when he greeted me, he’s been giving me his back, grumbling under his breath.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems he’s really mad at me for leaving him at home—he won’t even speak to me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was thinking... maybe tomorrow, after we get to Changancheng and settle the dorm, we should look for a rental nearby.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Xueqing’s expression hardened as she said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The school says we can’t keep pets in the dorm—but it never said we can’t feed stray animals!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“During the day, let An Sheng play at school or visit the zoo; at night, I’ll bring him back to our rented room.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you’ve already thought it all through, why do you still look so worried?” Mo Yiqing laughed from the sofa opposite the bed. “With An Sheng’s cleverness, how could anything happen to him? You’ve practically been letting him roam free at home.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m worrying about the rent! I don’t know how rents are in Changancheng. I’ve got a bit of income from livestreaming now, but after school starts, I don’t know if my livestreaming will be affected.” Yu Xueqing sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Pfft! I thought you were stressing over something serious! Who do you think I am? I’m the boss of ‘Mo Yiqing Loans’—for a cute little fox, borrow as much as you want.” Mo Yiqing chuckled teasingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1365,"2026-06-20T23:19:16.948Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","e25f8dcb5f9d4587ce8328f82e0e8dc6d4519f2f9f52476a47e23951c9fdaa6f","the-fox-has-no-malicious-intent-chapter-279","the-fox-has-no-malicious-intent-chapter-277",354,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fox-has-no-malicious-intent-cover.jpg"]
