I stared at him. Gradually,he let me go and said," Ke Ye I didn' t want to ask for my help,but I thought you were unfamiliar here. Ke Ye he's interested in you,I agreed to help him."
After chatting with him,he realized that the ghost sent by the higher-ups had suddenly become ill. Zhong Qi took the job,but fortunately,he took it.
When I saw that the performance was so thin that I couldn't say anything,the Zhong Qi beside me could n' t help but click," What kind of backing does your Inspector have in the Netherworld? Otherwise,would he have been here for more than ten years?"
I couldn't help but admire the fact that the ten fingers of the ghosts and monsters that had been in the shelter for more than ten years Ke Ye he had really succeeded.
Ghost Hag brought some tea and asked me in a low voice," How is the Superintendent?" I scratched my head and told her the truth. I'm afraid Ke Ye' ll have to rest at home these days.
"You guys actually managed to escape unscathed after entering Withered of Thousand Ghosts?" Zhong Qi clicked his tongue and sighed. Then,he patted the registration form and shook his head." It won't work if this continues. I' ll be on vacation for the next few days. I'll stay here and help you capture a few ghosts as a facade!" "It's going to be New Year's Eve. We can't afford to be poor."
Ghost Hag glanced at me and nodded in agreement. Recently,the kid's expenses had been a little too much.
I stood at the side of the street and pointed at a row of neon-lit shampoo shops across the street. I smiled bitterly and asked the Zhong Qi beside me. "Do you think there will be ghosts here?"
Zhong Qi patted me on the shoulder with a smile. When he looked at one of the washrooms,he suddenly turned serious and said," There have been a lot of murders here." "Since we can't find any ghosts,we' ll capture a few evil spirits and receive a lot of bounty."
My eyes lit up and I was about to walk over with the Soul Chasing Lock. It was almost the end of the month,and I still didn't have any money on hand. How could I pay the rent when the time came!
"Hey,don't worry." Zhong Qi grabbed my arm and pointed at a man across the street. He smiled and said," Let's see what happens first."
I followed his line of sight and saw that the man pretended to be careless. He turned into a washroom and then a woman came out and lowered the shutter door.
"She——" I couldn' t help but be surprised when I saw the Yin Qi that flashed across that woman's body. This woman was actually possessed by Yin Sha. It seemed that things were far more troublesome than Zhong Qi and I had thought.
Zhong Qi rubbed his chin. After a moment of silence,he said slowly," We can't rush this matter. Let's find her real body first."
The Yin Fiend relied on absorbing the essence energy of a person to cultivate. It was weak when it did not find a host,but it would be very difficult to deal with it once it was parasitized. If one wanted to completely burn down the Yin Fiend's body,it would be even more difficult to find it because one could not even know what it looked like.
I thought Ke Ye there were so many ancient books in the study. There should be some records on how to solve the Yin Sha. That man should be fine. Yin Sha absorbing essence energy would not be fatal. After being absorbed,one would only need to recuperate for a month or two. Thinking about it,I could Zhong Qi leave that place.
He had nothing to do with Zhong Qi and wandered around the streets until midnight. He really didn't even see a ghost.
When he returned to the apartment,he found a pair of unfamiliar shoes at the entrance. I was just wondering when I heard a conversation coming from Ke Ye bedroom.
"Thanks to your help in the last incident,the bonus should be on your card this week... I'm going to have to ask you for this today ……"
The bedroom door was not closed. I looked up and saw that the person inside was the Officer Bai I had seen in the car accident at the cafe.
Ke Ye raised her eyes and saw me. She looked at me and smiled,but she spoke to that Officer Bai. "Officer Bai,do you remember Bai Xiaoxi my assistant? She can resolve this matter. Please tell her what happened again."
Officer Bai looked back at me and asked in surprise," Are you guys living together?" "It's so late,why did Miss Bai come back from outside?"
The feeling of being interrogated like a prisoner made me very unhappy. I immediately ignored his "interrogation" and waved my hand at Ke Ye." Zhong Qi and I have other matters to attend to. We've been very busy lately!"
Officer Bai looked at me with an embarrassed expression. She glanced at Ke Ye and forced a smile," Another occupational disease ……"
Ke Ye helplessly shook his head and smiled,then suddenly coughed a few times. He looked at me and said without a word," The case happened in the Yulan region. I think this should be more important than you and Zhong Qi!"
"My master is easy to find. He's in an antique shop in Yulan District." The words of the little brat suddenly appeared in my mind,and my heart couldn' t help but tremble. How did he know about the matter Ke Ye Yulan District... I couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He seemed to be ignoring everything,but in reality,my every move could n' t escape his eyes.
A huge fire suddenly broke out in an antique shop in Yulan District. After the fire was extinguished,a coffin was found in the shop. What was even more strange was the contents of the coffin.
"A corpse?" I raised my eyebrows and interrupted. Officer Bai looked at me and shook his head with a serious expression." It's a woman."
The woman didn't have any scars on her body. Her face was serene,but she did n' t have any breathing or heartbeats. Judging from her attire,she belonged to the Wei and Jin Dynasties,and it was detected that her age also belonged to this era.
"The corpse doesn't rot for a thousand years. I' ve never seen it before..." Officer Bai exclaimed in surprise as he stared at one place for a while.
"Then where is the corpse now?" I frowned and asked. This corpse was indeed too strange. It might cause trouble.
As expected,Officer Bai shook his head and sighed. "Just last night,the body disappeared. "We placed her in the hospital morgue and waited for the higher-ups to send someone to take her away for further research. Who would have thought that the body would disappear the next day,leaving only the coffin."
###Chapter11,Jade Pillow and Bonus
"Where is that coffin now?"
"He's still in the hospital morgue."
After sending Officer Bai off,I rushed to the hospital overnight. For some reason,my heart was a little upset. I always felt that this matter was too strange and complicated. If I didn't come tonight,I would n' t be able to sleep.
Standing in front of the signboard on the first floor of the hospital,I saw the words "morgue" at a glance. "On the ground floor ……" I lowered my head and thought to myself," There must be some information about that female corpse in that coffin. I just wish that coffin wasn't used to seal her..."
In the middle of the night,Cold And Cheerless in the hospital,in order to cause unnecessary trouble,I carefully avoided the surveillance and security guards and instantly arrived at the ground floor.
Passing through the cold and gloomy corridor,there was an inconspicuous door at the end,and a "morgue" sign hung on the wall beside it. I reached out and the door was locked. With a thought in my mind,I heard a crisp clatter and the door was slowly pushed open by me.
I found the switch on the wall,and the lights on the ceiling lit up one after another. The sound of the electric current was especially clear in the quiet morgue.
The cold light shone on the freezer,and a ball of flickering lights appeared on the marble floor. I walked slowly around the freezer and saw a black coffin on the ground.
The heavy air pressure emitted from its body,and the dense resentment and black gas slowly escaped from the coffin,quickly forming a ghost image above the coffin.
The lamp continuously flickered,and it could be extinguished at any time. The noise of the electric current made my scalp go numb.
The freezer began to tremble as well. There were seemingly no-nonsense roars coming from it. A dark wind suddenly rose,as if it was about to blow me up.
I gave a cold laugh and shook my wrist. The Soul Chasing Lock slid out of my sleeve like a snake and Xie Jing. It rushed towards the shadow like lightning.
The shadow was instantly broken by the Soul Chasing Lock. The light above his head also returned to calm. The surroundings were once again deathly silent.
When I approached the coffin,I couldn't help but worry inwardly: The resentment on the coffin almost turned into a Yin Fiend. I do n' t know how strong the resentment on the female corpse should be...
The outside of the coffin was completely black. I used my hand to lightly wipe it over,and I felt that there was another indentation on it. My heart skipped a beat as I pushed the lid of the coffin open again. With the heavy sliding sound,the appearance inside the coffin gradually entered my eyes.
Inside,there were some pieces of silk and satin that were mostly black and ashes. A delicate jade pillow was quietly lying in the coffin. I couldn't help but gasp when I saw the patterns on it.
The evil spirits that were clearly outlined by the patterns were vivid and lifelike. They were lunging at a village that was being burned by the fire. I stretched out my hand and wanted to look at the patterns behind the pillow. Unexpectedly,I suddenly heard footsteps.
"Why are the lights on in the morgue? Hadn't he already ordered that no one should enter ……"
The sound of conversation and footsteps gradually approached. I didn't have time to think about it. I grabbed the jade pillow and turned around to escape through the window.
At breakfast the next day,Ke Ye looked at the newspaper and suddenly laughed. The pickled vegetables I picked fell onto the table and couldn't help but frown at him.
"You're really low-key." Ke Ye raised the newspaper in his hand and looked at me. I was puzzled. When I read the newspaper,the headline on the front page was: Strange thieves visiting the morgue late at night.
I looked at the small editor in the newspaper and saw the thief's character analysis and motive. The corners of my mouth twitched uncontrollably.
"I didn't mention the loss of the jade pillow..." I read it carefully again and found that the newspaper did n' t report the loss of the jade pillow and the strange disappearance of the female corpse. However,it was normal to think about it. It was one thing to report such that was out of common sense. Believe it or not was one thing. If it caused any commotion,it would be troublesome.
Ke Ye took the jade pillow and played with it in my hand. I fell off my bowl unhappily. "I'm still having dinner here. Take the stuff from the pillow and look at it." Ke Ye looked at me with a smile and shook his head. He stood up and walked away with the jade pillow.
