Chapter 925: The Detective Who Could See Ghosts (5)
[Additional Task: Evil people will get their karma. Hint: Please solve more than five murders.]
The Harmony System gave Ming Shu her task bright and early in the morning.
But, what is wrong with the title?
What do you mean by evil people will get their karma? Huh?
Harmony System, come out!
I need to talk to you!
[Guest, do you want to watch little demons fighting? It is more enjoyable when you watch it in the morning.]
Ming Shu just woke up and her mind was suddenly filled with little demons fighting. She didn’t feel good.
Harmony System, get out!
Get away from me as far as you can!
[...] Okay, I will.
Ming Shu: “...”
Shameless.
Ming Shu rubbed her hair and sat up.
The place that she stayed at was not big. There was only one bedroom.
She got down and washed up. Then she sent a message to Chen Wen and asked him about his progress.
Chen Wen investigated for the whole night but the clue led nowhere. The child was missing.
The victim had not reached her delivery time. If a seven-month-old baby was taken out of the mother’s womb, there was not much chance the baby was alive.
But, why did the culprit take the baby?
Ming Shu asked Chen Wen for the victims’ information.
The first victim was a student still studying in university. The second one was a hostess. The third one was a high school student and the fourth one was a white-collar worker. He Lan was the fifth one.
These five cases happened at different times and there was no pattern in the date of the crimes, either.
Sometimes the gaps between the crimes were long, and sometimes they were short.
However, only two months had passed since the first murder. This meant that the culprit killed one person every 12 days on average.
Ming Shu carefully flipped through the information.
This is all for the sake of Hatred Points.
This is all for my snacks.
Ring...
Ming Shu glanced at the telephone and picked it up.
“Hello.”
“Is this Miss Qian Sui?”
Ming Shu replied nonchalantly, “Yes. What is the matter?”
“I would like you to investigate something. If it’s okay for you...”
“I am not okay to help you. Goodbye!”
“...” The person on the other end choked for a few seconds. “Are you saying that you will not accept my job? Is this how you do business?”
“Yes, I am glad that you know. Don’t call me ever again. Also, tell Yao Ying to find me herself. Stop trying to do such acts behind my back. No wonder she can’t get her man.”
Ming Shu slammed the phone down and hung up.
Yao Ying seldom appeared in front of her personally.
How am I supposed to gain Hatred Points like this?
Frustrating.
Ding—
Chen Wen: Did you go to Y University?
Long live Qian Sui: Yes
Y University was the university that the first victim studied at.
There was no similar case found in the police system.
That meant that the first victim was the first person the murderer killed. Of course, there might be other victims that they hadn’t found.
However, the first victim would always give them more clues.
Chen Wen: I will go with you in the afternoon. I need to do something there too.
Long live Qian Sui: Does the police station provide dinner service?
Chen Wen: ...
Chen Wen just wanted to type GTFO to Ming Shu.
...
At Y University...
This place had over a hundred years of history. Many famous people graduated from this university.
The school gave off an ancient vibe. Everywhere you walked, you would feel like you traveled back in time.
“Lu Jiaqi? She was a very good person... I wonder who could be so cruel. Have you caught the culprit?”
“Lu Jiaqi’s results were really good and she was pretty too. She had a good personality so everyone liked her.”
“Didn’t you ask us all this before? Why are you asking us again? Lu Jiaqi was a very nice person. Everyone liked her...”
The victim, Lu Jiaqi, was a second-year student at the university. To her teachers, she was a good student. To her friends, she was a good person.
No one saw her having a conflict with anyone ever since school started. She didn’t have a boyfriend, either.
The statements of the students now were similar to what they said before.
“That woman was really bad.”
Ming Shu looked at where the voice came from—a ghost.
“Why do you say so?”
The ghost widened his eyes.
“You... are you talking to me?”
Ming Shu nodded. “Is there any other ghost here?”
This ghost had the same reaction as Little White. He was very excited too.
Hence, Ming Shu got a lot of information from the ghost. “She had a boyfriend. No, she had many boyfriends. She even had a child once. She was just acting in school. I saw her...”
The Lu Jiaqi that the ghost depicted was totally different from the Lu Jiaqi that her teacher and friends described.
“Let’s go.”
The moment Chen Wen turned around, he heard Ming Shu saying this. He was a bit lost. “Where are we going?”
She didn’t say anything ever since she arrived here and she wanted to leave already?
“I have asked everything I wanted to ask.”
“...” Who are you trying to fool! Chen Wen saw that Ming Shu really wanted to leave so he said hurriedly, “I need to meet someone first...”
Chen Wen needed to see a psychology professor from Y University. He wanted to ask for the psychology professor’s help to analyze the murderer. This was the main reason why he came here.
“Professor...” Chen Wen brought Ming Shu in. “You have a guest?”
There were two people in the office. One of them was a middle-aged man.
The other was a young man. He stood casually by the table and smiled gently. He seemed like a delinquent on the first glance.
The man was very handsome.
The kind of handsome that was glaring and that no one would be able to forget.
When Chen Wen walked in, he raised his eyebrows and looked over.
“Little Chen is here.” The professor greeted Chen Wen. “This is not a guest. It’s just my former student. Speaking of which, you were both from the same department. Have you met each other?”
The professor then stared at the young man. “Your standing posture is indecent.”
The young man didn’t say anything. He had no intention of changing his posture.
“I have never seen him before,” Chen Wen replied honestly.
“You policemen always spend time outside so that is understandable.” The professor asked Chen Wen and Ming Shu to come over and have a seat. He poured some tea for them. “Gu Zhi, who are you posing for? Come and sit down.”
Chen Wen spat out the mouthful of tea that he just drank.
He spat it directly in the professor’s face.
The professor: “...”
“Professor, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.” Chen Wen hurriedly took some napkins and passed them to the professor.
“It’s fine...” The professor wiped his face.
Gu Zhi strode over with his long legs and sat opposite them. He crossed his legs and leaned casually against the soda. His eyes shimmered.
Ming Shu hugged a bag of potato chips and ate seriously.
Chen Wen admired her. No matter where she was, she could eat her snacks so calmly.
Chen Wen glanced at the man opposite him. This person...
Was a legend in their field—a legend that hadn’t been expelled yet.
“This is Captain Gu, Gu Zhi.” The professor tidied himself before introducing the young man to Chen Wen. “This is Chen Wen, the captain of the city bureau. This...”
The professor looked at the quiet little girl who was eating her chips.
“Qian...” Chen Wen felt too embarrassed to say her name. “Little Qian, our consultant.”
The professor nodded his head. He took a few more looks at Ming Shu.
Not everyone could be a consultant. They needed to have some skills.
Ming Shu smiled at the professor.
The professor: “...” He didn’t see anything special about this girl.
“Cough... Little Chen, you came for the 516 case. Gu Zhi came for this case too, so we can discuss it together.”
