Chapter 4

【New book seeking support, your collection is my motivation!】

Fang Shi sat on a bench in the middle of the old street, watching the people passing by. The foot traffic here was heavy, and for Fang Shi, who wanted to observe and find unlucky individuals, the probability here was undoubtedly the highest.

Fang Shi had also considered the hospital; after all, the people who frequented there should not have high luck. However, the hospital was currently cracking down on medical touts, and Fang Shi did not want to cause any misunderstandings. He couldn't afford to waste time!

However, when Fang Shi's gaze moved away from a young girl's white thighs again, he finally realized that this was not a suitable place. There were too many people, especially too many young and beautiful girls. How could Pengcheng have so many girls? Even more outrageous, it was working hours, so did these beauties not need to work?

After much thought, Fang Shi decided to move to Renmin South Road. There were many office buildings there, and although there were still many beauties, the foot traffic was not too heavy. He could observe carefully without being distracted.

Under the scorching sun, Fang Shi walked for fifteen minutes and found a flower bed in the shady side of Friendship Building. He squatted by the flower bed, holding a bottle of soda, and squinted his eyes to observe the passersby.

Fang Shi watched for a long time, and it seemed that everyone's expressions were similar. They all had stern faces, looking coldly at everyone, and even ignoring them. When their eyes met Fang Shi's, they would show disgust or disdain, or at best, indifference or a bit of fear.

Fang Shi felt that the aura of these people was similar. Perhaps this was how ordinary people were?

As he watched, Fang Shi began to drift off, feeling as if he himself was one of them, with a stern face, walking expressionlessly on the street, rushing through the city, without any passion or excitement, just for the sake of living. These people, who looked so different on the outside, were actually so similar when you stripped away their outer layers!

Shaking his head forcefully, Fang Shi pulled his wandering thoughts back. As he did so, his eyes couldn't move away from a middle-aged man who had a very obvious aura. Fang Shi was surprised; when did his eyes become so sharp? Did he have such keen eyesight before?

Fang Shi's eyes scanned back and forth, quickly comparing the middle-aged man with the other passersby. Yes! It was him! Aura Divination, go!

-3

What? This isn't scientific! How can it be so low? Wasn't it supposed to be -5?

Fang Shi gritted his teeth and decided to give up on this one. -3 might not show any signs, and even if it did, Fang Shi had already set the threshold at -5. Changing the threshold now would disrupt his plan!

But what about that guy just now? His aura was so obvious, yet it was only -3. There wasn't enough information for Fang Shi to make a judgment, so he could only temporarily note this question in his mind.

After waiting for nearly an hour and making two trips to the restroom, Fang Shi finally found another target. This was a woman whose figure had changed, but her attire was quite nice. However, her makeup was a bit exaggerated, and the layer of powder on her face might be more than five millimeters thick! Additionally, her face looked fierce, as if she had hormonal imbalances, and her eyes were sharp and scrutinizing.

The woman's aura was also very obvious, but Fang Shi felt it was better than the middle-aged man's. If he probed and it turned out to be -2 or -3, he might not find fifteen targets in a day based on the time intervals.

Fang Shi gritted his teeth and decided to use it!

Aura Divination, go!

Damn! -5!

This isn't scientific! The aura of the previous person was more intense, but this woman's face... Wait, aura, face, that's it. Aura is a very subjective thing, so it can be influenced by measures like makeup and clothing, leading to misjudgment.

No wonder the face-reading knowledge Fang Shi found online mentioned not to be influenced by makeup and to pay attention to the eyes. Everything has its principles! Learned!

Fang Shi followed the woman as she walked past. However, the fat woman turned a corner and entered a multi-level parking lot. Fang Shi hesitated for a moment but followed her. When he reached the fifth floor of the parking lot, he saw the woman squeeze into a beautiful Nissan car and drive away. Fang Shi could only watch helplessly as she disappeared from his sight. He quickly walked to the railing and leaned out to look.

Then he saw a shocking scene.

"Screech!"

"Bang!"

"Car accident! Security, come quickly!"

"Don't go over, be careful of fire, get the fire extinguisher first!"

"Break the glass, pry open the car door, call 120, hurry!"

"Damn! This isn't my fault, she suddenly rushed out, I didn't see her, you saw how fast her car was going!"

"Shut up, now is not the time to argue, save the person first, there are cameras here, don't worry, you won't be blamed!"

Fang Shi watched as people rushed to save the woman. Fortunately, the collision wasn't too severe, and the fat woman was quickly pulled out, covered in blood. Soon, the ambulance arrived. Fang Shi watched as the woman was taken away on an ambulance for the second time in two days. He suddenly felt uncomfortable. He knew something was going to happen, but he didn't stop it, just watched helplessly. Was this... against his conscience?

No! It's not like that!

These unlucky people must have a cause and effect. Yes, a cause and effect! This is probably their karmic retribution. He shouldn't interfere; it's their own karma!

But why did he have this ability? Wasn't it to interfere with such karmic retribution? Wasn't he planning to use this ability to make money?

Fang Shi's limited brain couldn't figure it out. After all, he was just an ordinary person. When such a big opportunity fell from the sky, not everyone could handle it. Some might even be crushed.

Fang Shi wandered like a lost soul in this bustling metropolis until he was so thirsty that he finally came to his senses. He found himself back at Shuidian Road, where he had worked for the first time. The area was surrounded by repair shops and 4S stores. Looking at the familiar street, Fang Shi remembered why he had left here. He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and walked towards the subway station.

He couldn't just watch others suffer. He decided to lower the threshold. Perhaps he couldn't save those who were destined for karmic retribution, but he could find some situations where he could intervene. If he couldn't move mountains, he could at least move bricks.

Fang Shi decided to lower the threshold by one point. They would focus on -4. If -5 meant severe bloodshed, -4 should mean minor misfortune or small disasters. If it still didn't work, he would lower it further. There must be a point he could use!

Since it was still early, Fang Shi changed his location. Cai Tian Road also had an office area. It was two blocks away from where he first saw the -5 unlucky person. He found a shady spot under a big tree, wiped the sweat from his face, and drank some cold distilled water while discreetly observing the passersby.

Target appeared, Aura Divination! Go!

-5!

Damn! Why are there so many unlucky people in this world? But it seems there are a lot in the news too. -5 isn't fatal, but this unlucky person should do more good deeds. If they continue, the karmic retribution will be severe. Fang Shi had never been more convinced of this principle!

Fang Shi turned away, not wanting to look at the old man who had already walked far. He was so old, tsk tsk!

The sun was setting, and Fang Shi was so hot that he had no appetite, only wanting to drink water.

Another target appeared, a woman walking a brown curly-haired dog. She looked good, without heavy makeup, a very fresh person. However, her slightly furrowed brows and tightly pursed lips gave off a distant and cold vibe.

Aura Divination, go!

-4! Perfect!

Fang Shi became excited, but not in that way. After the woman walked past, he silently followed her. He was also curious about what would happen with a -4.

As he walked, Fang Shi suddenly felt something was off. He looked around, but everything seemed normal. What was wrong? He stared intently at the woman walking the dog, her swaying hips, the bag on her arm, the not-so-high heels, and the obedient and cute dog. Nothing seemed off!

Suddenly, a gust of wind passed by Fang Shi. It was... a motorbike!

That's it! The motorbike had been slowly following him, and now it suddenly sped up. Oh no, it's a robbery!

Fang Shi instinctively shouted, "Be careful!"

But it was too late. The motorbike was silent and quickly approached the woman, who turned her head at the sound. The man on the back, wearing sunglasses, suddenly reached out and grabbed the woman's handbag, pulling it hard. The woman stumbled and fell, and the handbag was taken!

"Woof woof..."

The dog was brave, barking fiercely. When it realized its leash was loose, it ran after the motorbike. The barking quickly faded as the motorbike and the dog turned a corner and disappeared.

"Ah! Robbery! Benny! Benny! Come back, robbery!"

People on the street looked sympathetically at the woman, whose arm was bleeding. A woman helped her up, and a few热心 people came forward, offering all sorts of suggestions, but they quickly called the police.

Fang Shi stood there for a moment, then smiled. Good, -4 means losing money! And a bit of minor misfortune. This is good. This is something he could intervene in. If he had more experience or noticed the problem earlier, he could have approached the woman and disrupted the robbers' plans!

This means he has a chance to interfere with the karma of people with -4 aura. This is a money-making opportunity! The chance has come!

However, Fang Shi clearly ignored the possibility that if he had approached the woman, he might have provoked the robbers. Blocking someone's path is like killing their parents!
