Chapter 104: No Longer Able To Refuse
As Xiao Wenbin walked into that building, his palms were sweating, and he was in a strange state of both panic and expectation.
When he had arranged the tutor session online back then, he hadn’t thought much about it. But the moment he saw that girl’s photo, a surge of impulse rose in his heart. Soon after, seeing a meds advertisement in a small corner of another Tieba Forum made that impulse even stronger, impossible to suppress.
Similar meds small advertisements were everywhere online, and he hadn’t taken them seriously before. But after ordering some with a try-it-out mentality a couple of days ago, he realized that some advertisements were real.
He bought meds from three merchants and tested them on himself, confirming that two sold completely ineffective fake drugs. But one was very honest—what they claimed the medicinal effect was, it was, practically foolproof.
So today for the appointment, besides the tutoring materials essential for the tutor session, he brought the real meds.
He entered the apartment building, went up the stairs, and knocked on the door.
As soon as the door opened, the face revealed made Xiao Wenbin’s greatest expectation instantly come true—this girl was really quite beautiful.
Next, it was about finding an opportunity to administer medicine. And this opportunity came, making Xiao Wenbin exclaim that heaven was blessing him.
The girl placed two water cups on the coffee table, then went inside to get the study materials. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Wenbin hurriedly administered medicine into both water cups. With no time to find chopsticks or a spoon to stir, he simply reached into the water cups and stirred a couple of times.
He had administered the medicine, but after a while, the girl still hadn’t come out from the inner room.
Xiao Wenbin, full of expectation, sat on the sofa and finally realized something was wrong. He walked to the bedroom doorway, knocked on the door, and just as he was about to say something, the door opened.
Then he was dumbfounded.
He saw four police standing at the doorway, wearing neat uniforms. One of them even took out handcuffs and unhesitatingly cuffed him.
“We recorded your actions just now. Come with us.”
Xiao Wenbin reacted and shouted, “No, this is entrapment!”
The police with the handcuffs sneered, “Entrapment is only for those without criminal intent who are induced to commit a crime. Do you not have criminal intent?”
Another police said leisurely, “Criminal Procedure Law Article 151: To ascertain the facts of a case, when necessary, with the decision of the person in charge of the public security organ, relevant personnel may conceal their identity to carry out investigation. What we did isn’t even concealing—we were just staying inside the house without coming out.”
The only female police among the four mocked, “Ye Xun applied for protection, and with her agreement, cameras were installed in her home. Do you think this infringes on your rights?”
At this point, Xiao Wenbin was already drenched in sweat, but he was unwilling to give up just like that. The higher his mood had been lifted by the expectation earlier, the more he couldn’t accept reality now.
Suddenly, Xiao Wenbin charged headfirst into the nearest police and turned to run.
However, because his movements were too hasty and his hands were cuffed together, making it hard to keep balance, he fell after just two steps.
Then two police pressed down on him, pinning him.
The female police didn’t make a move and no longer hid what was in her hand. So Xiao Wenbin finally saw clearly that what she was holding was clearly also a camera!
“Very good, add assaulting a police officer. How long a prison sentence do you want to eat?” the female police sneered.

Wang Heng sat on the bench in the residential area, watching Xiao Wenbin being escorted into the police car, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Of course, after digging up the evidence of that meds industrial chain and Xiao Wenbin’s contact records with the seller, he was certain the police absolutely wouldn’t let him succeed. When he saw two police cars drive in that morning, he also knew Ye Xun wouldn’t suffer any more harm. But only now, confirming that scum had been grabbed, could he consider it a great accomplishment…
No, wait, it’s not over yet.
A sentence starting from three years, in his view, was nowhere near enough no matter what.
Wang Heng opened Xiao Wenbin’s school Tieba Forum and official forum, and posted the news of that scum’s criminal intent being caught red-handed by the police all at once.
This way, by the time the police went to his school for investigation and evidence collection, the rumors would naturally spread. But after this incident, Xiao Wenbin could never continue studying no matter what—how much meaning did this social death have?
But no matter, there were more follow-up plans waiting for him in prison… Thinking of the follow-up plan in his plan, Wang Heng couldn’t help but feel some expectation.
But just then, he heard that young girl’s voice: “It’s really you!”
Wang Heng looked up and saw Ye Xun standing not far in front of him, gazing at him with a face full of surprise.
“Why are you here?” he asked in astonishment.
“I’m going to make a record with the police!”
“I see…”
At this time, Ye Xun bounced over, grabbed his hand, as if afraid he would run away.
The young girl said excitedly, “I heard the police say someone reported it again this time, and for some reason, I felt it might be you. I looked for a long time from upstairs earlier and finally found you sitting here. You don’t know how happy I am!”
Wang Heng swallowed: “Don’t you find it strange? Aren’t you afraid? I might be stalking you, the kind of pervert who would secretly take photos…”
Ye Xun gazed at him and asked, “Then how did you know I was in danger?”
He couldn’t reveal the existence of the worldline correction mechanism, couldn’t show too much anomaly in front of people—with such restrictions, Wang Heng’s options were limited.
So he could only say, “I was investigating a criminal industrial chain online and happened to discover that scum who wanted to administer medicine to you.”
Ye Xun laughed, happily saying, “I knew it, your previous report definitely wasn’t a coincidence! Right, you must be that kind of justice hacker who searches for clues on the network and punishes all criminals, right!”
Wang Heng didn’t know to what extent this girl had imagined things, but it was really hard to deny, so he could only nod silently.
“Wow, really amazing,” Ye Xun couldn’t help but exclaim, “And so romantic!”
Wang Heng had black lines on his forehead: “Where is it romantic?”
“Acting alone, without any remuneration, constantly taking action for justice… You’re practically a superhero on the network!”
Saying this, Ye Xun clasped her hands in front of her heart, her eyes shining with a certain chuunibyou glow. This made Wang Heng want to ask, just how far have you imagined this?
But the next moment, Ye Xun pulled the topic to another unexpected place.
“I finally found a tutor, and it turned out to be a criminal,” the young girl gazed at him full of expectation, “So can you be my tutor? If you think it’s trouble, I can go to your school to find you for tutoring! The price and everything is negotiable, okay?”
Wang Heng: “Well, I have a friend…”
Ye Xun said resolutely, “I only believe in you.”
For this matter, was there a reason to refuse?
Under the premise of not causing anomaly, was there a reason to refuse?
Stepping back, if he refused again this time, wouldn’t he worry about some other accident happening?
Wang Heng hesitated to speak, then wanted to speak after hesitating, struggled for a long time, and finally could only squeeze out two words:
“Okay…”
