Chapter 776: Chapter 776: The Hidden Boss Behind Spiritual Affairs Reveals Himself

The viewing frame in the livestream shakes due to Scarlett Jennings running with the camera.

The viewers of the livestream feel like their heads are shaking along with it.

[Honestly, I still don’t understand, why is Scarlett Jennings trying to catch Lucienne Xander? Is this some hidden mission by the production team?]

[As previously mentioned, the Security Bureau is handling the case. Lucienne Xander has been taken by the Security Bureau before, so she must have committed some crime.]

[Don’t spread rumors. If Lucienne Xander were really caught, how could she still appear on the show? Her continued presence as a guest implies her innocence.]

[What does a Security Bureau case have to do with Scarlett Jennings? It’s no wonder Lucienne Xander feels targeted, I now feel she’s being targeted too.]

Just as the livestream was flooded with discussions, suddenly, a golden V account forcefully popped up, directly announcing to everyone in an official capacity.

[Cathay Special Security Department V: Scarlett Jennings is with the Security Bureau.]

This simple sentence directly announced Scarlett Jennings’ identity as a Security Bureau member to all viewers.

The chat momentarily paused due to the sudden appearance of the official account, and then the screen scrolling became even crazier than before.

Scarlett Jennings knew nothing about this.

Inside the building, due to the mixed atmosphere, Scarlett Jennings almost instantly lost track of Elysia Xander and promptly pulled out the system turtle, asking,

"Can you track the Black Mist?"

The system hummed,

[You should have let me absorb all the Black Mist from her earlier, that way she wouldn’t have the energy to escape.]

Scarlett Jennings remained silent.

She didn’t let the system do that, merely to confirm another matter.

Fortunately, even though the system was mumbling, it still promptly hovered with the Black Mist towards one direction.

Scarlett Jennings walked through various rooms in the building.

Due to the unique layout of the building, Scarlett Jennings discovered that one room often led to another, and the stairs of the original room would appear at another place once the door was closed.

After turning through several rooms, Scarlett Jennings immediately stopped her actions.

This building was like a huge spatial maze.

Trying aimlessly like this, there was no way to find anyone.

She simply stopped in one room, then quickly took out her phone to establish a spatial model diagram.

The livestream viewers didn’t know what she was doing, and neither did the system, but it didn’t stop it from finding an angle to watch.

And so, while the viewers were originally watching well, suddenly, a turtle floated to the front of their camera, completely blocking the view.

All anyone could see was a small turtle tail gently wagging in the Black Mist.

It was... a bit impolite.

There, Scarlett Jennings tried to restore part of the building’s spatial layout following the route she had just taken.

But from this small amount of space, there was no way to discern the pattern of spatial movement.

She pondered carefully for a moment and then remembered the distribution structure map of the building complex she had seen with Lucienne Xander before.

From the moment she entered the Ghost Tower and saw the lobby, she felt the design of the lobby was familiar.

The design of the Ghost Tower’s lobby was clearly a replica of the main entrance of the infamous unfinished building.

This grandiose building, with its billions in investment, attracts many internet celebrities to check-in, despite being unfinished, just because of the main entrance’s ancient Divine Temple-like appearance.

Scarlett Jennings initially subconsciously thought that David Allen might have copied the main building’s design.

But now that she thinks about it, actually, there’s another possibility.

Which is—

The initial Inspiration for the landmark building complex outside actually originated from David Allen.

The manager mentioned that David Allen liked to stroll in mist and rain, occasionally accidentally bringing people into the building.

Suppose once, someone accidentally entered the headquarters building, witnessed the majestic design of the inner lobby, and used it as a prototype to replicate a similar building in reality.

This would explain why a billion-dollar project couldn’t proceed after showing a glimpse of its form.

Because everything this building displayed existed in the Otherworld, and the Otherworld’s existence cannot be spied upon or replicated.

Just as mortals cannot look straight at the gods, nor can they fully replicate the appearance of gods.

The man’s leisurely and casual posture slightly paused. He turned his head and directly met Scarlett Jennings’ gaze at the door.

At the same time, the image of the man also appeared on the large display screen in front of him.

Wearing a dark green Tang suit with intricate embroidery and casually tied-up long hair.

A stunningly beautiful appearance, indistinguishable in gender, reclined lazily on the sofa, after the initial surprise, those beautiful fox-like eyes gently raised towards Scarlett Jennings.

With just one look, he captivated all the livestream viewers.

[Husband? Wife?? What should I call him?]

[Who is he?! Within a minute, I want all the information about this person!]

The chat was filled with a frenzy of messages, but the next second, the livestream footage completely disappeared.

It wasn’t disconnected but seemed to be blocked, cutting off all visuals and sound, and before they could record a second glance of the man’s features, the screen went entirely black.

Scarlett Jennings saw the screen behind the man suddenly go dark but didn’t care, she simply stared straight into the man before her for quite a while, then gritted her teeth and called out two words,

"Ivan!"

So it was you.

The owner behind the scenes of Spiritual Affairs!

Ivan clearly didn’t expect her to find the room he was in directly.

She hadn’t been searching for Elysia Xander from the start, but him.

Because the manager mentioned that David Allen only listens to the boss, that is, him.

Finding him would allow directly locating Elysia Xander through David Allen, which was more effective than wandering aimlessly inside the building.

Ivan also realized this at the moment, and after the initial shock, quickly chuckled.

"Congratulations, you’ve found me, the secret boss. As a reward, the person you’re looking for, I’ll return to you now."

He said, with a light call in his voice,

"David Allen."
