Everything serves his plan.

...
What Chen Miao and the others didn't know was that shortly after they left the noodle shop, the flesh and blood on the ground turned into a pile of ash before the eyes of onlookers, scattering with the wind without leaving a single bloodstain behind.
"Got it."
The officers who had just arrived at the scene, ready to clean up, quietly put away their tools after witnessing this and looked at their colleague, "Notify the Supernatural Department."
...
Meanwhile, in a small private room of the Oura Clubhouse, a man in a white shirt woke up gasping for air, his face ghostly pale and eyes flickering with fear, as if he had just woken from a nightmare.
"How did it go?"
The other people in the room teased with a laugh, "What did Chen Miao say? Did he hold back on the spot, or did he admit he was wrong?"
The man in the white shirt didn't speak, just kept gasping for breath and seemed a bit slow to react. He was Chi Yu'er's cousin, a Magician with the Hidden Occupation "Shadow Controller".
This Hidden Occupation gave the ability to control people's shadows, including one's own, to make them nearly identical to their real bodies and possess the same abilities. Items in the real body's backpack would also be fully replicated.
However, when controlling one's own shadow or someone else's, the physical bodies of the controlled shadows would be stuck in place, immobile.
Just now, he was controlling his and his three underlings' shadows to replace Chen Miao and scare him. In truth, Yu'er's parents didn't know she had any interaction with Chen Miao, and the business of grilling sweet potatoes was also something she mentioned to him.
The Chi Family was unlikely to trouble Chen Miao over this, especially since he was increasingly becoming a chosen one by the Fengtian City Government. The Chi Family wouldn't dare to move against Chen Miao at this time as it would upset those people.
Besides, the Chi Family never had a habit of warning anyone; they were more likely to act directly.
Just now, it was only because he got carried away with a bet in the excitement of the moment. What he didn't expect was that Chen Miao would actually dare to shoot!!
Without a moment's hesitation!
He was from the Chi Family, after all. How could Chen Miao dare to open fire like that? Isn't he afraid of the Chi Family's retaliation?
At this moment, the others in the room also noticed the man's paleness and sensed that something was off. They asked tentatively, "Chen Miao didn't take action, did he?"
"Hmm."
Yu'er's cousin's face was still pale as he had finally calmed down, "He gave me a burst. He killed all my shadows."
The fear of instant death from his shadows was transferred to him as well.
He could control up to five shadows at a time. To control someone else's shadow required their permission, and the feelings and visions of the shadows were transmitted to him in real-time. It was a very powerful Hidden Occupation.
Meanwhile, outside the private room, his three underlings didn't react much as though their shadows were controlled by the man, they didn't receive the shadows' feelings or visions. They could only see their shadows returning to their feet, and they were able to move again.
As the man's words settled.
Everyone in the room realized the gravity of the situation. The laughter died instantly, and they all fell silent, contemplating countless possibilities, but they never imagined Chen Miao would actually act.
Chen Miao dared to move against a member of the Chi Family in the street.
What does this mean?
If Chen Miao was not a brainless person who could be easily provoked, it meant that he had enough confidence in his heart to withstand the Chi Family's revenge. However, according to their investigation, Chen Miao was just a nobody without any background. Where would such a person get the confidence to believe he could stand against the Chi Family?
Merely relying on his own abilities?
That wouldn't be enough.
No one in the private room spoke again; everyone seemed deep in thought, unsure of what they were considering. This news had to be relayed back to their own families so they could reassess Chen Miao's strength.
At this moment, Yu'er's cousin had also come to his senses, only then realizing what he had done and knowing he had been used by others. His back was already drenched in cold sweat, and he knew he had no choice but to suppress the incident.
There was no longer a chance for revenge.
If the Chi Family found out he had been manipulated into doing something so foolish, they would definitely reduce his authority and status significantly. There were faint rumors that the Fengtian City Government was preparing to support Chen Miao. If true, the Chi Family would surely have to align with Fengtian City.
His actions were tantamount to pushing Chen Miao to the opposite side of the Chi Family and the Chi Family to the opposite side of Fengtian City.
Even if Fengtian City wanted to elevate Chen Miao, they couldn't support someone who had killed in the street, as it would negatively impact their image.
Fengtian City would naturally come to resent the Chi Family for ruining Chen Miao, and the Chi Family would kill him...
Thinking of this, the man hurried out of the private room at once, ready to make amends and minimize the damages.
...
A few minutes later.
Yu'er's cousin appeared at the noodle shop with a smile on his face, accompanied by his three underlings. By this time, the area had been cordoned off and everyone knew someone had been murdered here.
And it seemed the murderer was none other than Chen Miao.
Chen Miao had already gained quite a popularity in Fengtian City. Even if they couldn't remember his face, that distinctly designed Thompson Submachine Gun was memorable. After it had been shown that day, many people searched for the same Thompson "Firearm Skin" as Chen Miao's, but unfortunately, nobody found it.
Several police officers were busy collecting evidence at the scene, and according to surveillance footage, the deceased appeared to be from the Chi Family, named Chi Qiu.
The problem just became bigger.
At the time, there were quite a few customers in the shop who had witnessed the whole event and were currently giving their statements to the police.
But just then—
Someone in the crowd recognized Chi Qiu and, rubbing their eyes in disbelief, tugged at the nearby police officer, saying in a trembling voice, "Officer, these few people are the ones who were just murdered, and now they are alive again!"
"Alive?"
The police officer, who was recording testimonies, glanced at the surveillance monitor where the deceased figure lay, then looked towards the four men approaching them. He was equally bewildered; they were exactly identical. Were they really alive?
Meanwhile.
Chi Qiu also looked towards the crowd and said with a smile, "Sorry for the inconvenience, I was a bit late due to a minor error. What everyone saw just now was a large-scale magic trick of mine, returning from death. How did you like it, did everyone enjoy the show?"
"There was no murder case at all."
"It was just a performance of mine."
At this time, Chi Qiu felt as awful as if he had eaten excrement. How had he been deceived into causing trouble, and now he had to clean up his own mess? If he couldn't clean it up properly, the Chi Family would be the first to deal with him!
