Chapter 38

"Captain Jiang, do you want to come in and eat with us?"

Jiang Youqi asked, "Is there a case or did he ask you out?"

"There is a case." Gu Tanxi answered honestly.

"Then I'll take you there and you can eat on the way." Jiang Youqi is still very dedicated.

Gu Tanxi nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Can I take a shower before going? I feel a little uncomfortable after a busy day."

"Just hurry up, I'll wait for you."

"Then come in and wait, I'll be there quickly." After saying that, Gu Tanxi turned around and ran to find clothes and rushed into the bathroom.

Jiang Youqi came in with a bag and looked at the floor. It was so clean. Did he want slippers?

He opened the shoe cabinet next to him and found no men's slippers.

It seems that no man has ever come to her house, which is good.

Then he wouldn't change his shoes and just wait at the door.

A shower doesn't take more than a few minutes.

As a result, he stood there for almost half an hour.

The barbecue is getting cold.

Gu Tanxi stuck his head out wearing a hair drying cap and asked, "Do I still have time to blow-dry my hair?"

Then she realized that Jiang Youqi had been standing at the entrance. "Why are you standing here? Why don't you sit on the sofa? I haven't mopped the floor in a long time. Just come in."

"I'll be fine standing here for a while. You can blow dry your hair. Lao Fang isn't rushing you, so there's no need to rush."

"oh."

Although she said that, Gu Tanxi didn't want to keep others waiting too long. She didn't want to wash her hair in the first place, but she usually took a slow shower and played some music. Today she was too anxious and got her hair wet.

Since it’s already wet, I might as well wash it quickly.

It ended up taking nearly half an hour.

Strictly speaking, she spent twenty-five minutes taking a shower and washing her hair.

Blow-dry your hair for two minutes.

Apply skincare to your face for one minute.

Jiang Youqi stood at the entrance, leaning against the wall and waiting.

"Do you usually take this long?"

Gu Tanxi: "This is already my fastest speed."

"Oh... just pretend I didn't ask."

"Don't you usually take half an hour to shower and wash your hair?"

Jiang Youqi shook his head, "It will only take five minutes."

"It took you five minutes to take off all your clothes." Gu Tanxi said, took out two bottles of drinks from the refrigerator and ran towards Jiang Youqi.

"We can go now."

A fresh fragrance came over.

Jiang Youqi's chest opened involuntarily and he took a few more breaths.

Gu Tanxi had just washed herself, and her face was glowing white, completely different from the skin color she had seen during the day.

It seems that working in their bureau and running field work every day has made their faces dirty.

After being stared at for too long, Gu Tanxi thought there was something on his face, so he used his cell phone as a mirror.

"I'm not even clean?"

"No, it's... too clean." Jiang Youqi stuffed the bag into her hands.

"Eat it while it's hot, let's go."

"Oh, oh." Gu Tanxi touched the bag, an insulated bag, so it should still be hot inside.

All the little Q people in the family were watching.

The handsome guy on the sofa even circled around Jiang Youqi and compared his biceps with him.

He also reached out to touch Jiang Youqi's chest muscles.

"Oh...he's older than me."

Gu Tanxi glanced at him and didn't blame him for being so curious.

No man has ever come to her house.

None of the mimics in my home can be as realistic as the sofa.

Everyone is a little Q person, only he is a comic book boy.

When Gu Tanxi walked out and closed the door, the handsome man on the sofa followed him out happily.

"His legs are longer than mine."

Gu Tanxi smiled evilly and turned back to whisper, "His butt is even more perky than yours."

The handsome man on the sofa stood in front of the door and touched his butt with both hands.

Jiang Youqi heard the voice and turned around to ask, "What did you say?"

"No, no." Gu Tanxi quickly slammed the door shut.

The handsome man on the sofa who was trapped in the room shouted: "I am also very perky. I am so perky that I can lift up the sofa!"

Gu Tanxi suppressed his laughter and walked quickly over to press the elevator door as if nothing had happened.

Jiang Youqi saw it, she was laughing, what was she laughing at?

As soon as Gu Tanxi got into the elevator, he turned around and pressed the door-opening button. He waited until Jiang Youqi came in before pressing the first-floor button.

The elevator door slowly closed. Jiang Youqi's little Q-like figure floated over with his head tilted, and asked curiously, "What were you laughing at just now? My back is funny."

Gu Tanxi glanced at Jiang Youqi guiltily, and was discovered by him?

Fortunately he didn't hear what she said.

She spoke very quietly.

Of course, Gu Tanxi would not answer the little Q man's words.

Pretend not to see it.

But the little Q guy refused to give in and tilted his head in another direction.

"What are you laughing at? What are you laughing at? Are you happy to be with me?"

Gu Tanxi pursed his lips.

If Jiang Youqi were uglier, he would be a typical ordinary man.

What a pity, he is handsome, rich and has super powers.

Not ordinary at all.

Seeing her turn around to peek, the little guy immediately laughed slyly: "You peeked at me."

Gu Tanxi looked at the elevator wall.

Fortunately, the little Q person is just a person's inner world, which is not connected with his five senses. Otherwise, what the little Q person discovered, Jiang Youqi would also discover.

That would be embarrassing.

The elevator quickly reached the first floor.

Jiang Youqi stretched out his hand to stop the elevator door from closing and let her go out first.

Gu Tanxi didn't hesitate and walked out quickly.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Youqi's little Q figure was floating beside her.

What is going on?

It was not until they got in the car that Little Q sat on Jiang Youqi's shoulders, but facing her.

Gu Tanxi was too embarrassed to look away.

After she fastened her seatbelt, she looked down at the thermos bag and said, "Can I eat in the car?"

"Sure. They often eat in the car. I'm used to all the smells in the car." Jiang Youqi started the car and asked, "Where are we going? To the bureau?"

"The bureau... I'll ask again." Gu Tanxi was not sure anymore and called Fang Lingjian to ask.

Fang Lingjian said let's go directly to the crime scene, then hung up the phone and sent her the location.

"It's Ruixin Garden, Villa Area A, No. 8."

Gu Tanxi told the address and started eating skewers in the car.

Jiang Youqi asked while driving, "Is it still hot?"

"It's still warm." Gu Tanxi replied, "I'll leave half for you."

"No need to save any, I ate a whole round when it was freshly baked," said Jiang Youqi.

"Is this what you left over?" Gu Tanxi joked.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I bought this especially for you."

Gu Tanxi continued eating with a smile, telling everyone not to ask too many questions to avoid embarrassing them.

For example, at this time don’t continue to ask, why are you buying it for me?

Don’t ask, there might be a second meal of kebabs.

＊

In the Ruixin Garden Villa District, a cordon has been set up around the villa where the murder occurred.

The lights in several surrounding villas were on.

I dare not sleep late at night.

Several families have already packed up their things and left for a while, not daring to stay here anymore.

Seeing that the car from the Supernatural Bureau was parked in front of the villa, he was even more afraid to stay there.

Murder cases involving people with special abilities are more frightening than murders committed by ordinary people, because ordinary people still have a chance to fight back, but people with special abilities can only be killed.

This also makes it more difficult for criminal police to conduct investigations.

When asked if they had seen or heard anything, they all shook their heads and said they didn't know.

Fear of revenge.

Who knows where that supernatural killer is hiding now?

What if the other party becomes invisible?

Fang Lingjian was standing at the door, feeling worried.

Then I saw Jiang Youqi's car driving over.

When Gu Tanxi got out of his car, Fang Lingjian strode over.

"Here I come."

"Team Leader, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. What do you want me to do now?" In order to avoid being asked why he was with Jiang Youqi, Gu Tanxi decisively chose to be professional.

Fang Lingjian glanced at Jiang Youqi who had just come down, and decisively chose to be dedicated.

He turned around, pointed at the villa, and led Gu Tanxi over.

Talk to her about the case.

"The deceased is a female, 47 years old, named Bao Lixia, married with a son and two daughters, all of whom are studying abroad. This villa belongs to her and her husband, and the person who reported the case is her husband. The scene is a bit bloody, so you should be mentally prepared." Fang Lingjian stopped Gu Tanxi before entering the door.

"If you really don't dare to look at it, then don't look at it for now. Wait until the forensic doctor collects evidence and processes the scene before looking at it."

Gu Tanxi imagined many bloody scenes and asked, "A bloody mess, a body torn into pieces?"

"No, the body is intact, just with some blood on it," said Fang Lingjian.

Jiang Youqi, who had parked the car, walked over, went in to take a look, and said, "It's okay, just a body that's been stabbed a few times. There's a lot of blood on the ground. Was this done by a superpower?"

Fang Lingjian said, "We detected supernatural fluctuations at the scene, so the case has been handed over to us. However, the forensic doctor has initially determined that the cause of death was a knife wound, not homicide by supernatural powers."

Forensic doctor Bai Rong is still at the scene, collecting evidence.

I heard them chatting and looked over.

He nodded and greeted Jiang Youqi.

Gu Tanxi walked in slowly. She felt a little uncomfortable when she smelled the blood.

She took a quick look and looked away.

"Do you dare to look?" Fang Lingjian asked.

Jiang Youqi: "Don't look at it, I just finished eating."

Gu Tanxi took two steps back and stuck his head out the door to breathe some fresh air.

Then he turned back and said, “I can see it here too.”

As long as she stays in this space, the little Q man will appear after a while.

She had just finished speaking.

In a corner of the hall, the machine that detected the manifestation of supernatural powers suddenly made a crackling sound and flashed sparks. The staff nearby quickly stepped back upon seeing this.

"What……"

Before he could even finish his explanation, the machine exploded with a loud bang.

Suddenly there was a cloud of black smoke.

"Cough cough cough..." The smell of burning plastic filled the entire living room.

Gu Tanxi covered his nose and ran out.

Jiang Youqi and Fang Lingjian covered their noses with their arms and walked over to check.

"Why did it explode?" Jiang Youqi picked up the pillow on the sofa next to him and hit the fire.

The flame was not big and it was put out after a few hits.

Everyone open all the windows.

The man who owned the villa picked up the remote and said, "I'm turning on the ventilation. Your instrument is of such poor quality, how accurate can it be?"

Xiao Li, who was in charge of the measurement, frowned and said, "This is the first time this has happened. This instrument has never exploded in all these years..."

Jiang Youqi asked: "Can I see the data on the computer?"

"I'm watching." Xiao Li tapped on his laptop for a while.

The data that has not been tested was retrieved.

He stood upright in shock, and said in a serious and horrified tone, "Captain Jiang, Captain Fang, this energy fluctuation is not right. The value exceeds the measurement range of the instrument... That guy is likely still at the scene, but we can't see him."
