It was slowly entering July. The weather in the north was always cold. The northern wind blew, causing the pedestrians on the road to wrap their clothes tighter.
After three days of recuperation, Xia Tao's injuries had almost recovered. This injury could be said to be the most serious injury that Xia Tao had suffered since he was young. However, this injury also allowed Xia Tao to know many things that he did not know. Little Yu was no longer the person who only knew how to tease him and follow him in university. Perhaps Little Yu's feelings for him were true... Of course, it was just a possibility... Didn't the saying go,'A person's heart is hard to read.' Although Little Yu would be sad if she knew this, it was also the truth. Perhaps he was thinking too much.
The other thing was also the most important thing. Who was the woman in the illusion? Why did she say that she would go back? Back there? That strange place? Why was his master so sensitive to this topic? The old man must know the inside story…Could it be that I transmigrated? This was too ridiculous. Even he wanted to laugh at it…
"You really can sleep! "I stayed in bed for four days…" A breeze blew, and Yingzi floated in through the window.
"Why don't you try? Do you think I want to…"
She looked at Yingzi, who was smiling, and looked at her with hatred. "By the way, how's the school going? Why do I seem to have missed so many things?”
"Alright, stop pretending to have amnesia. It's just an injury. Now that you're lying here, the school's matter has been put on hold. There are still four girls 'bodies that haven't been found yet, and it's not long before the Life Devouring Array is activated. If you can't die, go and find the rest!”
"Why are there only four left? Aren't there still seven?"
"Are you really stupid or are you pretending? Zheng Qian, Zheng Xun, and Jiang Dui's matter has already been dealt with by your master.”
Uh…I'm pretending to be stupid…Oh no…I'm not stupid…
"Alright, let's go and eat something first. We'll go and take a look in the afternoon.”
"En, do as you see fit. Anyway, do it as soon as possible.”
"En, and…"
"What else? "Tell me, don't be so wishy-washy…" Yingzi looked at me innocently as she looked at my hesitant expression.
"I want to get up…"
"What does this have to do with me? Can't you get up? Do you want me to help you change?"
" Ah…Oh…You told me to wake up…" Before she could react, he lifted the blanket and got off the bed…
"Ah…Hooligan, you're shameless! Hmph!”
As she scolded me, she kept throwing books at me from the bookshelf behind her.!”In the end, she was finally hit in the face by a book titled " Tiny Times." Yingzi quickly floated downstairs.
" Stupid female ghost, you were the one who asked me to get up. I told you so tactfully, but you still didn't move…"
She put on her clothes, tidied herself up, and walked downstairs…
He walked to the living room and looked at all the familiar scenes. He recalled the scene of his injury that day. Right, didn't Netherblue sneak attack that day? He wondered how Netherblue was doing. Yingzi was sitting on the sofa. When she saw me coming down, she turned her head to the side…
"You're up? How is it? Better, right?" Little Yu came out of the kitchen and asked with concern when she saw me.
"It's fine. I've rested for so many days. I'm almost done…"
"Why didn't he die? Hmph!" That's right, it's Yingzi. This female ghost, it seems like I was taken advantage of. Why is she still angry…
" Um…You guys continue chatting. I'll go cook. We'll be ready to eat soon…" Seeing that Little Yu suddenly wanted to run away, I quickly called out to her. "Alright, just bring it out. The dishes will be cold in a while.”
"What? "I haven't finished cooking yet. I still want to…" Seeing that I was pointing at the takeaway box in the trash can, Little Yu silently walked into the kitchen. After a while, plates of delicious food were brought out from the kitchen.
"Actually, I did all of this. It's true. I just bought it from outside and learned how to make it.”Little Yu looked at me, who was about to drool, and explained again…
"I know. Did you pour it into a pot after you bought it and then put it on a plate?”
"Yeah, I'm smart!" Little Yu looked at me and said proudly.
"Big sister, isn't this the way to make chocolate?”
"Are you eating or not? If you're not eating, then forget it!" When she heard me say my thoughts, Little Yu was instantly unhappy...
" Eat, eat, eat, why not? Leader Mao said that people who waste food are bad guys…"
After eating a delicious lunch, he suddenly felt that it was good to be alive…Uh…I seem to have been alive all this time…
She packed her things and prepared to go to school. Although he had just tasted the power of that evil spirit, he still had to go to school for the sake of those innocent girls.
"Tsk!" The sound of brakes could be heard as a police car stopped at the entrance. Then, a man and a woman got out of the car.
"Hello! We're from the Major Crimes Division of the city police station. My name is Xiao Chen, and this is my partner, Zhang Xin.”
"Uh, what's the matter? We are good citizens…"
"Who is Xia Tao?" The person called Xiao Chen rudely interrupted my words. Qie Qie wanted to say that he would always be loyal to the Japanese Empire…Sigh…Don't throw rotten eggs everywhere…Sigh…You still throw rotten eggs…Oh…Pei…I was wrong. It should be the People's Republic of China…Beat the Japanese to death…
"Yes, what's the matter?"
"I'm sorry, you're under arrest. You can speak now, but everything you say may be used as evidence in the future. I hope you can cooperate.”As I said that, a pair of cold handcuffs were placed on my hands.
"Hey, what's wrong with me?"
Little Yu and Yingzi were at the side, looking anxious. Of course, they only saw Little Yu…
"We'll talk about the details when we get to the station. Let's go!”
" Xia Tao..." Little Yu saw that I was about to be taken away and hurriedly ran over to hold my hand.
"It's okay. I'll go take a look. I didn't do anything. It should be a misunderstanding.”
"Okay, then be careful.”He let go of my hand and looked at me worriedly.
"En, Yingzi, don't come and save me. I can handle it myself.”Xiao Chen and Zhang Xin looked at me saying this to a place where there was no one. They suddenly felt a cold breeze on their backs. They were so scared that they quickly escorted me into the police car. When I entered, I heard Yingzi's voice floating over...
" It's best to shoot him…" What did that mean? Heartless…sob…
Along the way, the police sirens whistled. The people outside must be some wretched criminal who had been arrested or something…
"Alright, untie it. I didn't expect you two to become policemen after such a long time. Does this mean that anyone can become a policeman?”
Xiao Chen turned his head and smiled at me in the driver's seat, gesturing for Zhang Xin to unlock the handcuffs.
"Sigh, what do you mean? Do you still have to do things according to his wishes? After all, I'm your childhood sweetheart. Why do you like him and not me?”
"Because he's more handsome than you!"
“……”
" Haha, Xin 'zi's words sound so comfortable…"
" Cut the dog couple…"
“pia!!”Zhang Xin slapped me on the head…" Tao Zi, do you believe that I will kill you?”
"F * ck, she's still so violent. Hai, Blackie, can you handle her?”
"Alright, alright. Tao, I haven't seen you in a few years. You're doing well. You opened your own shop and have such a beautiful girlfriend.”
"That's right. Tao Zi can also find a girlfriend!”
"Come on, the two of you ganged up to bully me. Aren't you shameless? Alright, tell me, why did you 'capture' me?”
"Uh…we don't know the details. We're not the ones looking for you, it's the higher-ups who are looking for you. We just heard that the person we're looking for is you, so we put on this show with Xin Zi. We said we wanted to see if you really did something wrong, so we humbly confessed. Maybe we can get something out of it, haha…"
[Fine, I'm impressed. These two are really bad friends…Oh…Right…I almost forgot to introduce them. These two are my best friends from the orphanage…Yes…The two who had sparks of love in junior high…I didn't expect them to become policemen…]
"Where are we going now?"
"The police station. It's not us who's looking for you. It seems to be an official sent by the central government. There was a case at the High School Affiliated to National Normal University. It was the case of those nine girls. I know that you have already saved a few people, and this is also the reason why Director Jiang recommended you. He told the official that you can solve the case, so we came to find you.”
"Director Jiang?"
"Yes, her daughter is Jiang Dui, the one you saved previously.”
"Oh, so it's him." No wonder he came to find me. "But, you know what I do for a living. This is completely done by a ghost. It's hard to say even if we find out.”
"No, it looks like you haven't completely resolved this matter. Was there a girl called Liu Zhonghe and Bao Kan among the nine girls?”
"Yes, but how do you know?”
"Let me tell you. In fact, in this corrupt society, the death of only nine people would not have alarmed the central government. However, it just so happened that the girl named Liu Zhong was the daughter of a high-ranking official in the central government. That was why the central government paid so much attention to her. According to our investigation, Liu Zhong and Bao Kan died in a murder case. Perhaps they were used by ghosts after they died.”
"Oh, I see. Then what do you want me to do?”
"We'll talk about this when we get to the station. I've already told you the details. I'm not too sure either.”
"Yes." The police car arrived at the police station very quickly. After all, it was a police car. There were usually no red lights or traffic jams.
After getting out of the car, the three of them went to the police station and rushed straight to the meeting room.
Pushing open the door of the conference room, Xia Tao saw five or six people sitting inside. Looking at the flowers on their shoulders, he knew that they were not ordinary police officers.
"Mr. Xia Tao, I'm Chief Jiang. I'm very happy that you're here. I hope you can help us solve this case.”The first to stand up was a middle-aged man. He stepped forward and grabbed Xia Tao's hand...
"Try your best and pay attention to your own safety. Although Chenchen and I are in charge of this case now and Chenchen and I will definitely be rewarded after you solve the case, we don't want anything to happen to you.”
"Are you concerned about me? Why don't you just come and settle it with me…"
“pia!!”He received another slap on his head…
"Where are we going now?"
"Let's go back to the law firm first. Little Yu doesn't know how I'm doing now. After being put on a show by you guys, they must think that something happened to me.”
"Hehe, you're quite concerned about people. Alright, let's go.”She didn't want to bother with that idiot and didn't say anything along the way to the law firm. When the car stopped, they saw Little Yu running out of the law firm with Yingzi following behind her.
"Are you alright?"
"It's fine. Let me introduce you. This is Xiao Chen and Zhang Xin. They are my best friends and grew up together in the orphanage.”
"Then why did they capture you just now?"
"Hey, it's okay. That's just an idiot. Ignore him.”I could clearly feel Xiao Chen's biting gaze.
"Oh, then what did you guys do?"
"Let's go in and talk. It's about the school case.”
In a small dark room somewhere in the middle school attached to the National Normal University. "Lady Chi Mei, are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. I just got punched by that old fart Amy, but I've almost recovered in the past few days. Gui Da, how is the resentment?"
"Milord, the resentment in the nine formation cores is sufficient, but we still need to wait a few days before we can officially activate them.”
"Good job. I can feel the power of the Life Devouring Array. Just you wait, it won't be long before I wipe you all off the face of the earth!”
"I wish Milord a quick completion of the Life Devouring Soul Formation and the elimination of the enemy!”
Xia Tao told Little Yu and the others what happened at the police station. He asked Yingzi to stay at home to protect Little Yu while he and Xiao Chen drove to school.
The three of them parked the car at the school gate and entered the campus. At dusk, the school that had experienced the disappearance of its students and the dismissal of its students was so desolate.
"There's someone!" As a police officer, Xiao Chen immediately reacted, and Xia Tao also realized that something was wrong. It was obvious that a figure had floated over just now.
"Something doesn't seem right."
"Yeah, whatever. Let's go to the cafeteria first.”
Suddenly, another black figure floated past. However, he intentionally stopped in front of Xia Tao and the others. The figure's true face could not be seen clearly. The black robe completely covered his face.
"Let's go. It seems like he wants to take us somewhere!”
"Yes." As soon as Xia Tao said that, the three of them followed the direction of the figure.
They followed the shadow all the way until they stopped in a dark alley, because the shadow had already disappeared.
"Come out. If you keep hiding like this, we don't know how to help you.”Looking at the dark alley, Xia Tao said to the seemingly empty place.
However, just as Xia Tao finished speaking, a figure slowly appeared in the originally empty alley. Slowly, Xia Tao and the others saw the figure clearly. A beautiful face appeared in their eyes, but only that face could be seen. Her beautiful face should have been matched with a perfect body, but at this moment, there was an abnormally bloated body under her face. His entire body was swollen, as if he had been soaked in liquid for a long time. His right arm was gone, and there were some unknown creatures crawling on the wound. From time to time, one or two unlucky ones would fall down. The woman's hair was still dripping with water. On her neck, a conspicuous red strangulation mark was clearly visible.
"You are Liu Zhong, right?"
Hearing that the person knew her, the girl named Liu Zhong immediately became excited.
"Are you a ghost hunter?"
"Yes, tell us. They are the police and can help you.”
"Hey, what's the use of the police? You can't afford to offend that person. Forget it…"
"I think you brought us here so that we can help you. Moreover, you can't forgive the person who killed you even if you're angry for a long time, right? Therefore, for your own sake, you can choose to cooperate with us.”
" Can you really help me?"
"Perhaps, but we will definitely do our best.”
After hearing this, Liu Zhong started sobbing softly.
"I'm just an ordinary girl. I just wanted to go to school quietly. I didn't expect everything to be so unpleasant. On the morning of the 15th, I went to school as usual, but on the way to school, I was stopped by a van. Then, five or six people got out of the van and tied me up without saying anything. "I don't even know why I was targeted by them…" As he spoke, Liu Zhong couldn't continue. He stood there and covered his face as he cried softly…
"Do you know any clues?"
"En, actually, you must be wondering why I would appear with such a strange lower body, because this is not me at all. I only have this head left…"
Xia Tao and the other two felt a chill run down their spines. In other words, it was only a head talking…
"You'll know at night. Go to the school cafeteria at 2:30 in the morning and take a look. Remember, don't alarm anyone. " I hope you can really help me…" After saying that, the figure gradually disappeared.
"What? There doesn't seem to be much clues.”Xiao Chen was disappointed when he saw the girl leave just like that. He thought that the girl would just tell him the name of the perpetrator...
" No, it's not that simple. Maybe it's just as she said. Something will definitely happen in the cafeteria tonight…"
"Okay, let's go back to the car first and come back at night.”Zhang Xin pulled the reluctant Xiao Chen and suggested.
"We can only do this for now. Let's go, Blackie. We might be able to find some clues tonight.”
The three of them returned to the car. Zhang Xin bought some food from outside to at least solve the problem of food and clothing.
The sky gradually darkened. There was no light in the school except for the street lamps. There was no one in the teachers 'dormitory. That's right. Anyone would be afraid of such a thing. Who knows, it might be their turn to be unlucky next.
Suddenly, looking at the antique door, Xia Tao realized that there seemed to be something…That's right, why was the light at the security office on? Looking at the window of the security office, Xia Tao saw an old man looking in his direction. Moreover, the old man must be looking at where he was because when Xia Tao looked at the window, the old man was smiling at him...
"You guys stay in the car. I'll go down and take a look.”Realizing that something was wrong, Xia Tao immediately opened the car door and walked towards the security office without caring about their questions.
When he was about to reach the door, Xia Tao realized that the figure at the window had disappeared. He hurriedly opened the door of the security office and rushed in…
" Young man, don't be impulsive…" The moment the door was opened, an old voice suddenly came out…Xia Tao saw an old man sitting at the table in the middle of the room. There were a few dishes and a bottle of white wine on the table…
"Sir, you are…"
"I'm a guard. Can't you tell?”
"I know that. I'm not referring to that. You should know what I mean.”
"Hehe, young man, there's no hurry. It's still early to 2:30. Why don't you sit down and have a drink with me?”Seeing the old man slowly pour a glass of wine from the bottle, Xia Tao sat opposite the old man.
"Want some?"
"Old sir, I won't drink. I don't like to drink.”
"En, young man, you don't seem to be an ordinary person.”
"Since you know, don't beat around the bush. You called me here because you have something to tell me, right?”
"Hehe, you're not their match!”One sentence was enough to guess the old man's identity.
"What does Old Sir mean by this? Are you their accomplice?"
"Heh, that's not it. Time is running out, this is a Soul Binding Talisman, it can help you…"
After saying this, Xia Tao was just about to realize that the light in the entire room had suddenly disappeared. Xia Tao hurriedly ran to the door and turned on the lights, only to see another scene that he could not believe. The small house that looked warm when they first entered was now in a mess. The table was covered in dust, and the corners were covered in spider webs. The dishes and wine on the table had long disappeared, and the light bulb on the roof was flickering. What was even stranger was that the light was not the pale yellow that Xia Tao had seen before, but emitted a trace of green light. After the series of events that had happened just now, it was even stranger. Even the scene had completely changed, let alone the old man, who had disappeared in an instant…
What was going on?
"Pound!" The door of the room suddenly opened, and Xiao Chen and Zhang Xin rushed in from outside.
"Is Xia Tao alright?"
" En…" Xia Tao replied perfunctorily. He walked to the table and looked at the Soul Binding Talisman on the table. He slowly picked it up…
After leaving the security office, Xia Tao was deep in thought as he walked back to the car. Under Xiao Chen's questioning, Xia Tao briefly explained what had happened just now and ignored them.
Time passed, and the digital watch in the car jumped to 2:30…
"Let's go, it's time to take a look…"
Xiao Chen and Zhang Xin packed their weapons and followed Xia Tao to school. As the cold wind blew, the three of them wrapped their clothes tightly and walked towards the cafeteria…
Everything seemed so bleak. Xia Tao led the three people in front, and Zhang Xin held onto Xiao Chen tightly... No, why were there three people behind Xia Tao?
At this moment, the three of them did not realize that there was another person behind them...
" We'll go over quietly later. Remember, don't make too much noise, or else..." Xia Tao stopped talking abruptly. When Xia Tao turned his head to talk to the two of them, he realized that there were more than two people behind them... A person with disheveled hair was standing behind them. His whole body was swollen, and water droplets kept dripping from his body. He was holding a handful of toilet paper in his hand. Yes, the so-called money in the ghost realm... The three of them stopped when they saw this scene. Xia Tao took out the Soul Splitting Talisman and was about to make a move. However, they realized that the ghost had a blank look on its face as if it did not see the three of them. It floated past them…
"Quick, follow them!" Xia Tao took the lead and followed. Xiao Chen and Zhang Xin looked at each other and couldn't help but shiver. They also followed. You can't blame them. Think about it yourself. When you were walking alone in school and suddenly realized that a ghost was following you, what would you think?
They followed the ghost until they saw him enter the cafeteria. Xia Tao and the others stopped at a distance from the cafeteria.
"Why doesn't the cafeteria door need to be locked? Why would a ghost enter the cafeteria? Could it be…" She thought to herself as she stared at the canteen.
"You guys stay here. I'll go over and take a look. If you hear me shouting later, come over and help.”
"Okay, go ahead. We'll watch from here.”After saying that, Xia Tao quickly walked towards the cafeteria. When he reached the window, he leaned over and saw a scene that he did not want to see...
Can you imagine the scene at the place where you were eating? In the cafeteria, the white energy-saving lamps on the roof were still hanging, but they emitted a green light that looked very scary. There were actually some people sitting scattered inside. The school had already dismissed everyone. Why would there be anyone at this time? Besides, they were eating…Yes, but they weren't eating the same things as us. They were eating human corpses…hands, feet, legs, ears, intestines…Xia Tao looked on from outside and retched. Wasn't this too perverted? Could it be that all these ghosts liked to eat these? The ghost closest to him picked up a palm and bit off his little finger. After chewing it, he spat out the bone…
Holding back the urge to vomit, Xia Tao slowly moved towards the kitchen…
In the kitchen department, Xia Tao snuck in and came to the back window of the kitchen. He saw that there were a few people busy in the kitchen…There was a series of hurried knocks on the door. Two ghosts floated in from outside the door, carrying a sack in their hands…
"What happened? Don't you know that customers are waiting for you?”A middle-aged woman walked out of the kitchen lounge and roared…
"I'm sorry, Miss Y. This hasn't been washed yet. We cleaned it.”
"Alright, you, hurry up and chop this fresh one.”Then, a muscular man came over and opened the bag. A female corpse leaked out of the bag. The male ghost carried the female corpse out and smashed her on the chopping board. Then, he pulled out a bright kitchen knife and chopped off the head. The head rolled along the floor to the trash can.
" Be gentle. There's a missing ear outside. Cut off her ear and send it outside…" The one called Miss Y looked at the group of people eating the corpses outside and said to the ghost who was cutting.
A little ghost ran over and carried his head back up. The male ghost cut off his ears and put them on a plate…
Next, Xia Tao could be said to have experienced the process of dissection once again. The male ghost first cut the female corpse's throat, then held his breath and pulled it all the way to the bottom. Then, he pulled with both hands, and a female corpse was separated from the middle. Everything inside was clearly visible... intestines, lungs, kidneys, trachea, ribs, heart... The male ghost pulled out the intestines and threw them on the plate that he had filled with food for the students during the day. Then, it was the lungs. Kidneys…all of them were placed on a plate…It was hard to imagine. Perhaps the plates of the food in the canteen where I was at were also placed like this. What about you guys?
After everything was done, the male ghost packed up his internal organs, thighs, and calves and placed them at the front desk for the " customer " to choose from…
"Miss Y, this was caught outside!”The door opened, and two ghosts escorted two people in. The two people were Xiao Chen and Zhang Xin...
These two pigs, they just wouldn't listen to me…
"Oh? It's still the police. Haha, everyone, you're in luck today. Fresh police set meal, only 998 yuan. It contains the best internal organs. What are you waiting for? You only have one chance, first come, first served…"
Xia Tao was sweating profusely as he listened from outside. This ghost was selling human flesh and even advertising…
" Swoosh…" Three Soul Splitting Talismans were thrown out, hitting the ghosts that were holding Xiao Chen and the other two, as well as the male ghost that was holding a large kitchen knife. The two ghosts were instantly scattered, while the male ghost was only sent flying and crashed into the steamer in the canteen. Many buns rolled out…
"Who is it?" Miss Y saw the invading humans and hurriedly looked in the direction where Xia Tao had been standing.
"Stop looking. I'm quite interested in those two policemen. Why don't you leave them to me?”
"Humph! Was that so? But we don't do business with ghost hunters.”
"Oh? Since you know what I do, then hand them over. I don't want to fight.”
"Humph! You have to be able to move!"
Soul Splitting Talisman!
As he spoke, Xia Tao threw the talisman at the female ghost. What Xia Tao did not expect was that the female ghost caught the talisman so easily and held it in her hand...
"This little thing can't deal with me, hmph!”Xia Tao also realized that this wasn't an ordinary ghost. He probably received some special treatment.
"Not bad, then try this!" As he spoke, he used the Soul Extermination Talisman!
The female ghost didn't panic when she threw out the talisman. Instead, she threw the Soul Splitting Talisman over. The two collided and exploded in the air...
"I told you, it's useless."
Corpse Bat Seal! Corpse Bat's Three Songs!
"Hehe, can you not be so childish? I told you, you're not my match.”With a wave of his palm, he still sent the Corpse Bat Octopus flying so easily…
" This…" The Corpse Bat Seal was the strongest weapon that the old man had given me. How could it be useless against her?
"Are you done? It's my turn!"
Ghost Lock!
The female ghost let out a loud roar, and a group of malevolent-looking ghosts rushed towards Xia Tao. They could not dodge in time, and Xia Tao took a heavy blow. He felt a sweetness in his throat and spat out a mouthful of blood…
"Yes!" Taking a deep breath, the female ghost looked at him with an appetizing gaze."I love ghost hunters 'meat the most. Besides, this can definitely fetch a good price, hehe!”
What should he do? This female ghost was so strong. Oh right, there was one more thing. Xia Tao remembered the talisman that the old man at the security office had given him. Who cares? Let's fight it out!
"Hehe, don't be like this. We're family after all!”
"Who is your family?"
"Sigh, Leader Mao said that 500 years ago, Sun Wukong…Oh no…500 years ago, we were all family!”
"Where did you get so much nonsense from? We…"
While she wasn't paying attention, Xia Tao stuck the Soul Binding Talisman that the old man had given him over.
"Hmm?" Looking at the talisman that landed on her body, the female ghost looked at Xia Tao helplessly." I told you, this won't work…" Before the female ghost could finish speaking, beams of light suddenly shot out from the talisman and pierced into the female ghost's body…
"Ah!" The female ghost screamed and looked at Xia Tao in despair."Why do you have a Soul Binding Talisman? Who exactly are you?"
" You don't have to worry about that…" After saying that, he took out his soul bag and jumped up high, trapping the female ghost inside.
He tied his soul bag and knocked on it.
"Let me out! What do you want?"
"Alright, stop shouting. Why don't we work together? I'll ask and you answer. If I'm satisfied, I can consider letting you go!”
"Dream on! I don't know anything. Don't even think about getting any information from me.”
"Oh? Does that mean you don't want to cooperate?" Xia Tao said as he tightened the bag. The tighter the old man's soul bag was tied, the more painful it would be for the ghost inside.
"Ah! I told you, I won't say anything."
"Maybe you said that I can help you solve your problem!”
"Don't lie to me. I still won't tell you.”
"You don't want your family to be disturbed by ghosts, do you?”
"What…what do you want?"
"Oh, it's fine. My hands are a little itchy. You should know that ghost hunters can catch and release ghosts, right? I don't mind catching two evil ghosts and putting them in your house.”
"Don't. Alright, tell me. What do you want to know?”
"Hey, what's your name?"
"Bao Chunyan, everyone calls me Miss Y.”
"Hmm?" Xia Tao seemed to have thought of something, but it was only for a moment that he seemed to understand something.
"Do you know Liu Zhonghe and Bao Kan?"
"Yes, it's our food, but it's already dead.”
"Alright, then tell me why you went to capture these two girls?”
"This…I can't tell you. If I tell you, my family will end up worse than you releasing evil spirits.”
"Looks like there's someone behind you!”
"You're not his match. You can't beat him even if I tell you.”
"It's okay. Just tell me. I'll protect your family.”
"Really? Can you do it?"
"I can get the ghost police to protect them. Even if something happens, we can fight back with all our strength.”
"But…"
"Don't hesitate. It's not good to delay some things.”
"Alright, it was the Ghost King who told me to do this!”
"Ghost King?" Hearing this name, Xia Tao felt a trace of shock. The matter of the Life Devouring Array had almost caused them to forget about the Ghost King.
"What's wrong? Are you scared?"
"It's not that I'm afraid. Although the Ghost King is not easy to deal with, it's not impossible.”
"Heh, maybe. Moreover, the Ghost King has connections with humans. Liu Zhonghe and Bao Kan are innocent. " Which human proposed to kill Liu Zhong, and which human paid us to provide us with 100 corpses? As you can see, we do this kind of business, and Bao Kan was killed by the Ghost King because the Ghost King and…uh…the Ghost King…I was wrong…spare me…next time…" As she spoke, Miss Y's words suddenly stopped. Sensing that something was wrong, she slowly flipped the soul bag over and saw a hole in the soul bag. There was a trace of ghost blood seeping out…This…She actually killed her right under my eyes?
Suddenly, he felt a trace of energy fluctuation coming from the roof. Xia Tao immediately took out his Soul Destroyer Gun and fired at the roof, but he did not find anything unusual... What was going on? Could it be…
"Brat, since you dare to go against my Ghost King, you must have some ability. Don't worry, I won't deal with you now. I think whether you can survive in Chi Mei's hands is another matter.”
Xia Tao smiled faintly. He couldn't deny that Xia Tao's current ability was indeed unable to deal with the Ghost King.
"Sigh!" He sighed softly and kept the soul bag into his bag. He had just said that he would protect her, but now, he could only watch her die in front of him…
He held the big kitchen knife and slowly walked toward Xiao Chen. He squatted down and gently patted Xiao Chen's face...
"What are you doing? Robbery of money or sex?" The first thing he saw when he was woken up by Xia Tao was Xiao Chen, who was holding a big kitchen knife. He hurriedly dodged and shouted.
"What are you so excited about? What do you have?"
"Go, go, go, yeah? Why are we here?"
"You don't even know?"
"Yeah, Zhang Xin and I saw you coming over and wanted to come over to see what was going on. However, we were ambushed from behind as soon as we reached the entrance of the cafeteria…"
"F * ck, how can there be such a lousy police officer like you?”
" Hey, what do you mean? I'm..." Xiao Chen still wanted to say something, but he suddenly saw the things on the front desk of the cafeteria. His stomach suddenly churned and he ran to the trash can to throw up...
"If I hadn't come in time, the two of you would have been like that…"
" Wah…Wah…" There was no thanks in response to Xia Tao, only the sound of vomiting…
"Tsk, useless…"
Ignoring them, he walked to the door and looked at Xiao Chen, who was supporting Zhang Xin. He said,""Looks like we can solve the case."
"Hey, what did you say? What case? This was done by a ghost. It didn't follow the logic of the case. This should be a murder case!”
Ignoring him, she took out her phone and dialed Little Yu's number.
"Little Yu, help me look up Bao Chunlai's information. It's not the one who plays basketball. It's Bao Chunlai, a high-ranking official of the country.”
"Okay, when are you coming back?”
" Soon, I've taken care of one here. Bao Kan's vengeful spirit has dispersed…" Ignoring Little Yu's question, he hung up the phone and watched as a beautiful figure floated up from the cafeteria. She looked in Xia Tao's direction with a faint smile and floated into the distance…
Although the Ghost King had not been caught, Sister Y was already dead, so Bao Kan was probably content.
" Beep... beep..." Little Yu's text message came. Xia Tao took out his phone and glanced at it. Then, he seemed to understand something and wanted to walk slowly out of the school...
Looking at Xia Tao who didn't talk much to him, Xiao Chen cursed in his heart and followed Xia Tao out of the school...
After getting into the car, Zhang Xin was also awake. However, in order to make her not afraid, the two of them did not tell her what had happened just now. Since the two of them didn't say anything, Zhang Xin was too lazy to ask. Anyway, she could interrogate Xiao Chen when she got home...
" Hey, Hei Zi, I'll ask Official Bao out for breakfast later. You guys…" After telling Xiao Chen and the others his thoughts, Xia Tao got out of the car and walked into the distance…
"No way, how could the criminal be…"
"Alright, let's do as he says."
" Okay." With that, the two of them drove away. After they left, the lights at the school gate lit up again. The old man at the window was still smiling as he looked in the direction where they had left...
Yang's Breakfast Shop.
"Haha, Mr. Xia, you're in such a good mood. You actually asked me out for breakfast.”
"Hehe, Official Bao, how have you been? I suddenly remembered something, so I wanted to talk to you over breakfast.”
"Oh? I wonder what Mr. Xia wants?”
"Hey, alright, I'm full too, but this doesn't seem to be the place to talk, right, Mr. Bao Yu?”
Hearing this, Official Bao was shocked and looked at Xia Tao strangely.
"You don't have to look at me like that. I might know more…"
"Heh, I didn't expect Mr. Xia Tao to investigate me. I wonder what your intentions are?”
"Hey, Officer Bao should be a smart person. I told you, this is not the place to talk.”
"Alright, let's go somewhere quiet.”
"En, please!"
Bao Chunlai drove Xia Tao to a private villa. Bao Chunlai was the first to get out of the car. Just as he was about to open the door, he was stopped by Xia Tao.
"Alright, you don't have to open the door. Let's talk here.”
"Oh? I wonder what Mr. Xia wants to talk about?"
"Hey, it's nothing. We're just chatting. For example, can we talk about Liu Zhong?”
"Liu Zhong? I don't know her. Why are you talking about a girl?”
"Oh? So you knew it was a girl!"
After being blocked by Xia Tao with two or three sentences, Bao Chunlai frowned and said,"Liu Zhong is the dead girl, right? I'm the person in charge of this case, so of course I know.”
"Then you said you didn't know him?"
"Haha, as you know, we're busy with work, so we were a little stunned just now and didn't react.”
"Oh? Forget it, since Officer Bao can't react, let's not talk about her. Let's talk about Liu Wenhui!”
It was like a bolt from the blue had struck Bao Chunlai's head. At this moment, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Bao Chunlai, formerly known as Bao Yu, is a high-ranking official of the central government. You joined the central government in 2003. At that time, your superior was Liu Wenhui. In 2004, your boss Liu went to your house as a guest. Because he was driving too fast, he accidentally knocked into a few children at your door when he was approaching your house. Coincidentally, none of the children who were hit at the same time were hurt. They were just grazed. They had…Bao Xiaobai, right?”
Seeing more sweat on Official Bao's forehead, Xia Tao only smiled lightly and said,""It seems like you don't want to say anything, so I'll continue. Bao Xiaobo, male. Your wife sacrificed her life for your son. You loved your wife very much when she died in childbirth. You were in so much pain that you wanted to die, but you persevered in order to raise your child. Therefore, you loved your son very much. However, you didn't expect that your favorite son would be killed by his boss during a family dinner with his boss. When your boss found out that the dead child was your son, he used threats, coercion, and temptation to end the matter. And this is also the reason why you killed Liu Zhong now, right?”
He looked at Xia Tao with a pair of dead eyes. After a while, Bao Chunlai suddenly threw his head back and laughed loudly…
"Yes, he did kill my son, but what right do you have to say that I killed his daughter? Where's the evidence?"
"Heh, bad people are all like this. They won't shed tears until they see the coffin. Then do you know Bao Chunyan?"
“……”
"What's wrong? That's right, Bao Chunyan is your sister, but she died a few years ago. You know that I'm a ghost hunter, so I met her last night. However, she died last night. You guys discussed this plan together, right? It doesn't matter if you deny it, because your sister has already confessed everything!”
"You…you killed my sister?"
"Don't say that. I didn't kill your sister. It was the Ghost King!”
"Ghost King? Humph! As expected of the director's recommendation. You can even investigate this. That's right, I killed Liu Zhong. In order to take revenge, I sent one of her hands to Liu Wenhui's house. When I think of Liu Wenhui's wonderful expression when he saw his daughter's hand, I can't help but want to laugh. Hahahahaha!”Hearing Bao Chunlai's words, Xia Tao also felt a little relieved. Bao Chunlai's information could be investigated, but whether Bao Chunyan was his brother or sister, and whether the two of them worked together in this case, these were all guesses! Fortunately, this Official Bao was a little silly…
"However, perhaps you can bring these secrets with you. You shouldn't have asked me out alone.”He watched as Official Bao took out a gun from his pocket and pointed it at him…
"You want to silence me?"
"Humph! Don't you think it's too funny to ask such a question at this time? If you don't die, I'll die. Guess if you die or not?”
"Sigh, do you think I would be so careless if I could find out about those things?”
"What do you mean?"
"It means you're under arrest!" Xiao Chen and Zhang Xin were already walking toward Bao Chunlai with guns in their hands.
"I didn't expect you to solve the case so quickly. It seems that I've underestimated you.”
" Bao Chunlai, you've been arrested. You can speak now, but you…"
"Pound!" A gunshot…hmm…normally, the criminal would not dare to face the police and would choose to commit suicide…but…f * ck, he actually shot at me…suddenly…there was a pain in his chest…and he slowly fell down…
"Pound!" Another shot was fired, but this time it was Zhang Xin. The shot hit Bao Chunlai's hand and the gun fell to the ground. Hei Zi jumped up and suppressed Bao Chunlai in an instant. Then, he handcuffed him. The two of them escorted him into the police car. Then, Hei Zi came over and took the recording pen from Xia Tao's body. He got into the car and left…
The cold wind of July blew, and the leaves that fell on the road danced in the wind. Bao Chunlai was sentenced to death, and Liu Zhong would probably be freed. All the major news in the city was broadcasting: News about the rising star of the police station, the husband and wife who were not afraid of power and captured the central government officials, and so on. Even the photos of Xiao Chen and Zhang Xin were hung at the entrance of the police station, but not many people knew that the two of them had basically done nothing.
Alright…I'm done for…Uh…I seem to have forgotten something? Right, Xia Tao who was shot…
Back on that day, a police car sped away…Then, Xia Tao, who had been lying on the ground for a long time, suddenly got up from the ground like a corpse…
" You two b * stards, remember this…" He touched his chest. There was still a bullet on his clothes…What? What kind of clothes couldn't be worn? Hehe, bulletproof vests, of course. Do you think Xia Tao is Superman…
He got up from the ground and drove Officer Bao's Audi to the campus. Since Liu Zhong's resentment had subsided, he had to retrieve Bao Kan and Liu Zhong's Life Devouring Jade. The Audi drove away and another car sped away…
entrance of the villa
"Heh, this kid has some skills! Where did he get that information?"
"Ghost King, it was Ye Gucheng, the owner of Ye's Department Store, who passed it on to his daughter, and then Ye Xiyu passed it on to that kid.”
"Oh? Yates Department Store? Ye Gucheng?"
"Ghost King might not be familiar with him, but Ye Gucheng has another name: Dugu!"
"Haha, they are all old friends! Let's go, old butler." The two of them disappeared into the black fog. Under the morning sun, the villa looked so beautiful, but no one was living there…
