Chapter 100
I thought for a while, and the other end of the phone remained quiet, as if giving me time to think,
After a moment, I spoke in a low voice: “Evan… would it be too presumptuous if I asked you to help me investigate something?”
“Let’s hear it.” His tone was calm, but I could detect a hint of seriousness.
1 gripped my phone tightly and briefly explained how Ashley’s published silver moongrass stabilizer formula was plagiarized, and that she had bypassed necessary clinical procedures and would soon bring it to market.
During my explanation, I hid my identity as Moonveil, and he didn’t probe too much into why I knew about this matter.
“This drug will harm people, but no one is willing to intervene now. I… hope you can help me, at least delay its market release.”
The other end of the phone fell silent for a while, as if weighing something. After a moment, Evan spoke flatly: “Do you have evidence?”
“I’m still collecting it,” I answered honestly. “That internal medical forum’s server is overseas and has been shut down. A lot of data was lost, so we might not be
able to find the original posts from back then.”
‘Alright.” He said it simply, but his tone was different from the earlier casualness–it now carried a sense of certainty and authority.
asked somewhat incredulously: “You’ll really help me?”
Evan said: “It’s hard to explain over the phone. How about this–come camping, we’ll talk face to face. I guarantee this won’t delay your investigation progress.”
agreed immediately.

he people Evan brought were helping to set up tents and barbecue grills.
t had snowed for several days recently, and the mountains were covered with snow.
eeing that I’d arrived, Liz came over and took my hand, saying she wanted to build a snowman with me.
uilding a snowman wasn’t difficult for me.
iz had even specially prepared a scarf for the snowman. After finishing it, she ran to ask the servants to help her find a scarf and carrots.
van’s gaze looked toward the end of the snowy field, his tone still calm: “The things you care about don’t happen without reason. Since you think this matter is nportant, then it’s worth my attention.”
iz ran over happily, holding two scarves in her hands, her eyes crescent–shaped with joy as she said: “We need to build another big one! One big and one small >gether, just like me and Aunt Aurora!”
he turned to look at Evan and said sweetly: “Uncle, will you help too? You’re the strongest–help me pile the snow higher!”
van looked down at her small, earnest face and complied without objection.
le took off his gloves, rolled up his sleeves, and silently followed Liz’s requests, seriously building the large snowman.
