Lin Yang actually registered quite a few ghosts, and most of them couldn't move around freely, so Lin Yang took the initiative to look for ghosts all over the city and found them.

The first one was about a mother who was hit and killed while holding her baby. After she turned into a ghost, she couldn’t find her baby, so she stayed there looking for him.

Tao Rui told her that a baby that young would have been reincarnated long ago, and after eliminating her obsession, he sent her into the reincarnation gate.

The second was a man who was honest to the point of being a bit foolish. He worked tirelessly every day to earn money for his girlfriend, but she kept complaining about him and eventually dumped him. In a fit of despair, he jumped off a bridge and lost his life.

He regretted it. He wanted to see his parents again and say sorry to them. He was unfilial and gave up his life for an unworthy woman.

Tao Rui put him into the black umbrella and took him to his parents to say goodbye.

There are also innocent ghosts who were killed by people jumping off buildings. They only remember that they were supposed to take an exam and are walking around anxiously.

The ghost who drowned while swimming in the wild felt guilty for getting his friend who wanted to save him into trouble and causing his friend to lose his life as well.

The teacher who was hacked to death by thugs who broke into the kindergarten was obsessed with protecting the children going to and from school every day.

There were many such ghosts. Unlike Lin Yang and the others, who were conscious, most of them simply blankly repeated the events of their last moments. Soon, they too would depart, but upon encountering Tao Rui, he allowed them to bid a proper farewell to this world, fulfilling their wishes before sending them on their journey.

Of course, he would occasionally encounter evil spirits wreaking havoc or vengeful ghosts. Tao Rui would either destroy them or avenge them. Sometimes, by sheer luck, he would even solve a case while avenging the ghost.

For a moment, the sky above City A became much clearer.

At the same time, Tao Rui's name became well-known in the police force, and he was also well-known in many people's hearts in the wealthy upper-class circles.

Normally, he worked his way through cases, maintaining his usual swift pace. During holidays or free time, he would accept invitations from wealthy individuals to help with feng shui, fortune-telling, and other minor inconveniences. His days were quite fulfilling.

Gradually, Captain Zhang had forgotten that he was originally recruited to keep a close watch on the enemy, and instead began to rely on him. Captain Zhang was the head of the special operations team, and Tao Rui was the second-in-command. Everyone in the team respected him from the bottom of their hearts and was willing to follow his orders.

Their department had inexplicably become a remarkably cohesive unit, the most collaborative team in the force. Because they always worked together perfectly, and under the leadership of Captain Zhang and Tao Rui, they had solved many cases, gained a wealth of knowledge, and naturally became more resourceful.

Colleagues from other departments must be so envious of them!

Tao Rui's public career was going smoothly, and privately he was also a well-known figure in the metaphysical world. Many of his deeds were unknown to others, but how could those in the metaphysical world not be aware of them?

Because the rumors were always exaggerated, people in the metaphysical community knew him better than his actual abilities, and they respected him very much.

The abbot of a temple on the outskirts of the city even wanted to invite Tao Rui to the temple to give a lecture. God knows he's just a cultivator, not a Buddhist. Even if his cultivation level is much higher than theirs, he wouldn't be able to give a lecture. Different professions, like different worlds.

However, this shows that everyone recognizes him, which makes it very convenient for him to complete his tasks, because he can always get the support and trust of others no matter what he wants to do.

For example, two years later, the ground collapsed and the building collapsed at a construction site. It was Tao Rui who persuaded the project manager to evacuate everyone in advance, thus avoiding large-scale casualties.

Three years later, a schizophrenic planted a bomb in the city center, and there was no time to detonate it. Tao Rui captured the schizophrenic, suppressed his violent personality, and allowed his kind personality to detonate the bomb with his own hands.

In fact, the so-called suppression of personality means that this person is possessed by a ghost, and Tao Rui simply gets rid of the ghost.

Five years later, a tornado hit the city. Tao Rui went out of the city and destroyed it before it arrived because the tornado was caused by an insane evil spirit.

Five years, ten years, twenty years...

Tao Rui always sticks to his post. After Captain Zhang retired, he led the special operations team to solve the "difficult and complicated" cases and provide support to other cities from time to time.

As his official rank rose, his prestige grew, and he completed more and more missions. The serious crimes he prevented, reducing the number of casualties, were all the sins committed by the original protagonist in the original story. Tao Rui followed this path and resolved all the sins.

It is precisely because he has cracked one serious case after another that his personal prestige has continued to rise.

He actually had many opportunities for a higher position, a transfer to the capital, closer to the core of the nation. However, his assignments were in City A, so he had always declined the offer, citing his preference for solving crimes on the front lines. His performance was indeed exceptional, but no one was yet capable of succeeding him. Even if his colleagues in the department, trained by him, could become independent, there was still no one who could replace him.

So the promotion was eventually shelved, but it gave Tao Rui a relatively transcendent position in the police force and made him an idol admired by many people.

Decades passed, and the special operations team members changed hands one after another. Tao Rui was very strict when recruiting personnel, rejecting those who were not smart or responsible. But once they joined his team, they would become elite police officers when they left, without exception.

At some point, a nickname quietly spread in the police force, called "Iron-Blooded Instructor", referring to Tao Rui.

It is said that if you follow Tao Rui, you must always be prepared to face fear, because you never know when you might see horrifying scenes or hear shocking truths.

It is said that there is no real vacation when working with Tao Rui. If there is a case suddenly, even if you are out of town, you have to rush back as fast as possible and cannot let colleagues cover for you, because Tao Rui has his own arrangements and plans for all of their work, and they all have to obey.

Rumor has it that this is because their horoscopes are different, some are suitable for this case and some are suitable for that case, and exchanging them may result in bloody disasters.

However, this rumor has no confirmation. All we know is that the Special Operations Group is becoming increasingly mysterious and powerful. In short, following Tao Rui is incredibly hard, but you'll truly learn twice as much.

Lin Yang told Tao Rui about these things as a joke, and Tao Rui also found it a bit amusing. However, he didn't care about the outside world's opinions at all, and he didn't have the time to spare. People with strong abilities have to take care of many things. He was never idle, and there were always cases coming to him. Lin Yang always found the ghosts he wanted to fulfill. He was the one who truly had no vacation.

But even with such a busy schedule, Tao Rui didn't forget what he promised the system. He promised to work with the system to see how to help it upgrade.

Over the past few decades, he has learned a lot of information and invested all the money he earned from wealthy businessmen in a research institute, which is researching intelligence that surpasses modern technology.

His wealth cannot be underestimated, and it even attracted the attention of the country during this period, but he admitted that he was interested in artificial intelligence and signed many agreements, promising to dedicate the final research results to the country and accept national supervision at any time. This did not affect his work or his research.

The advantage of doing this is that the research institute he invested in is equivalent to being incorporated into the state, and began to have some exchanges and cooperation with the National Research Institute, which greatly improved research efficiency.

But how could this thing be so easy to research? Otherwise, the system wouldn't be the most expensive system in the Space-Time Bureau.

Fortunately, the system has gradually found its place over the past few decades, and has used its best abilities to assist Tao Rui. It is no longer so anxious to upgrade, and has a good attitude. It has been advising Tao Rui to focus on tasks first and research secondarily.

So, by the time Tao Rui completed his mission at the age of seventy, his research hadn't yet surpassed his expectations. He decided to enroll himself in a research institute to learn about the subject. The beginning was always difficult, and learning was a struggle for him. But no matter where he was, he could only rely on himself, so he naturally wanted to learn and research on his own.

By this time, he had already retired, a glorious retirement after a slew of honors. An old colleague suggested he open a detective agency, but Tao Rui declined with a smile. His mission in this world had been completed, and he spent the rest of his days simply trying to understand the research findings of the institute so he could continue his research in the next world.

Only after seeing that he had really quit did Lin Yang find him and thanked him solemnly, as well as saying goodbye.

Tao Rui looked at Lin Yang, who still looked the same but had matured a lot, and smiled faintly, "I should be the one thanking you. Your parents are long gone, and you stayed with me for so many years and helped me a lot."

Lin Yang smiled and said, "Brother Rui, you gave me everything I have, so it's nice to stay with you for one more day. If you hadn't taught me how to accumulate merit, how would I have had the chance to be filial to my parents? They have been very happy for the rest of their lives, and I am truly grateful to you."

Even if I stay here for a few decades, I will not suffer any loss if I reincarnate again. On the contrary, I will have a better next life because I have accumulated a lot of merits.

Meeting you by chance and following you is the luckiest thing that ever happened to me."

Lin Yang paused before saying, "Brother Rui, I feel like you no longer need my company. You have more important things to do, and it seems like you and I are no longer in the same world. So it's time for me to leave."

I really don't want to drink Meng Po soup. There are so many past events that I don't want to forget at all."

Tao Rui smiled and patted his shoulder, his voice gentle and soothing, "Believe me, it's a good thing to forget everything and start a new life. Otherwise, the changes in people and things will drive you crazy."

"Well, now that Brother Rui has said that, I have no regrets. Brother Rui, please send me off." Lin Yang's sunny smile returned, just like when he first had his head reattached. After all this time, his original intention remained unchanged.

Tao Rui sent him into the gate of reincarnation on the rooftop of his house. The gate of reincarnation gradually disappeared, and everything around him returned to tranquility, leaving only a sky full of stars.

Tao Rui whispered to the system: "Everyone's gone, and it's just the two of us left. Don't worry, I'll definitely find a way to turn you into the system you want to be."

[System: Well, I'm not in a hurry. Anyway, no matter where we go, we'll go together. Brother Rui, when we get to the next world, you can give me a name.]

Tao Rui laughed, [Okay.]
