The Young Master has returned from the Infinite Game

Before his near-death, Chi Shen entered an infinite game. He vanquished tens of thousands of malevolent spirits, dodged covert and overt attacks from countless players, and finally emerged victorio...

Chapter 71 Who is a gentleman?

"It's not that simple?" Yuan Yiping also looked tired, as if he was asking this question instinctively. While speaking, he glanced at Li Xu from the rearview mirror. He seemed to have doubts about Li Xu, but was not sure, so he did not say it out loud.

Li Xu gently clasped his hands together and rubbed the backs of his hands with his palms. He looked a little excited. His originally silent eyes suddenly seemed to be ignited tonight, revealing a little light. He seemed to want to say something, but did not rush to speak. Instead, he turned his head to look at Chi Shen.

Chi Shen looked at Li Xu's expectant eyes and nodded encouragingly: "Go ahead."

Li Xu licked his lips nervously, and asked Yuan Yiping for his opinion: "Can I speak?"

Yuan Yiping nodded: "You can tell me what you found. It should be helpful to our investigation."

"This is a trap." Li Xu said slowly. He seemed not used to speaking like this. Although he was excited, he was so nervous that he didn't know how to organize his words. He stopped after saying one sentence.

Xu Jiayuan was sitting in the front passenger seat, ready to listen, but he found that he stopped talking. After waiting for two seconds, he still didn't continue. He couldn't help but look back: "What happened next? What game?"

Li Xu seemed to be thinking about something. He said, "Let me organize my words and write a PPT in my mind first."

Xu Jiayuan: "You can start from the beginning."

Li Xu thought for a while and said, "It's just that there are too many chapters. I don't know where to start."

Xu Jiayuan felt a little cold after hearing this: "Why does it look like there are so many heads..."

Chi Shen was watching from the side, with a slight smile on his face. He reminded Li Xu: "You can start from the first time the construction site was haunted."

"good."

Li Xu seemed to have finally sorted out his thoughts. He folded his hands in front of him and said, "The first haunting happened about a week ago. A security guard on patrol found a bloody shirt in the middle of the night."

Xu Jiayuan was surprised and asked, "There is such a thing? How come we don't know about it?"

"It was identified as chicken blood." Li Xu said, "So you... Special, Security Bureau? You should not have received this news, because no supernatural incidents have occurred."

Xu Jiayuan nodded: "I'm very busy recently. There may be documents submitted. If it's not a supernatural issue, I won't take care of it."

Li Xu said: "This is a test."

Xu Jiayuan was puzzled: "Test?"

Li Xu nodded solemnly: "Yes, a test. I was confused at first. It was definitely not simple for this headless ghost to appear here. But after knowing the existence of your Special Security Bureau, I connected the whole thing together. So this is how it is."

"You're testing whether we will care, right?" Yuan Yiping said at this time.

"Yes." Li Xu said.

"I know about the haunted incident here," Yuan Yiping continued. "We sent someone to take a look and found that there was indeed no evil spirit, so we handed it over to the police."

Li Xu said: "They did so many things in the early stage just to transfer the matter to the police, but the police didn't solve it, and the haunting incidents continued. Then the people on the construction site felt that the police couldn't handle the haunting incidents. They would suspect that this was not just someone causing trouble, but a haunting incident. The police didn't solve it because they didn't have the ability to solve it."

Hearing this, Xu Jiayuan nodded in confusion: "It seems to be like this. When we went to deal with it, it was clearly a natural phenomenon, but those people still thought we knew nothing and still had to ask a master to perform a ritual to exorcise the ghost. It felt like they... were wasting money."

Li Xu said: "After having this mentality, the person in charge of the construction site will not continue to contact the police if there is a subsequent haunting."

Xu Jiayuan had never participated in the entire incident and was very tired. He still hadn't figured it out, so he could only ask himself: "Then what?"

"Chi Shen and I found a lot of burnt paper money and incense outside. That's the evidence that the people at the construction site hired someone to do it. This shows that the person in charge of the construction site has really taken the bait. They won't choose to continue calling the police, but choose metaphysics." Speaking of this, Li Xu was obviously excited, "At this time, a real ghost was let in."

Xu Jiayuan thought for a moment and said, "It would be really strange if we let it in at this time. The people at the construction site didn't call the police, and this place is very remote, so we won't receive any relevant information..."

Li Xu clapped his hands and said, "That's right. Their goal has been achieved. They did so much just to make you ignore this matter. In other words, to prevent the Special Security Bureau from knowing that the construction site is haunted."

Xu Jiayuan was puzzled: "Why did they do so much? Just to keep us out of the way?"

"A honey trap." Yuan Yiping, who was driving, suddenly said.

Li Xu nodded: "I also guessed it was a honey trap."

Yuan Yiping explained to them in front: "There have been many such incidents in the past. People who know a little bit about Taoism have caught a little ghost and raised it, and put it in the homes of rich people to cause trouble. Then this person will come forward to solve the problem."

After listening to what Yuan Yiping said, Xu Jiayuan suddenly fell silent.

Seeing that his guess was very reliable, Li Xu also laughed: "It should have been easy in the past when no one was in charge. Now with the Special Security Bureau, everyone will think of calling the police if something happens at home, so they have to rule out the possibility that the ghost who called the police was solved by you first."

"That's right." Yuan Yiping said.

Xu Jiayuan leaned against the seat, sliding his fingers back and forth on the seat belt. He thought and said, "Then... the person who let the ghost in, isn't he still here? Should we go back and catch him?"

"I think he should have left when the police came," Li Xu said. "According to common thinking, after he put the axe in, he should have watched from the side. When he saw the police coming, he would have run away immediately. It should be difficult to catch him, right?"

It was a traffic light. Yuan Yiping rubbed his eyebrows and said, "It is indeed difficult to catch him, but we still have to arrange it."

He took out his cell phone and started making calls and arranging things. Although what he said now was only Li Xu's one-sided statement, they would not miss any possibility.

Xu Jiayuan said weakly: "It's definitely hopeless. If it were like this, they would have run away long ago. Alas."

Chi Shen suddenly said at this time: "Maybe he felt guilty and turned himself in."

Xu Jiayuan loosened his seat belt, looked back at Chi Shen, and said earnestly: "You can't judge other people's moral values by your own. If he were a good person like you, he wouldn't do such a thing as a honey trap. Look at Bai Ran, isn't that an example? After experiencing such a thing, you can still look at people with this mentality... You are too kind."

Chi Shen seemed embarrassed. He smiled and blinked, but said nothing.

——

Outside the Gangbei construction site.

A young man is running.

It was cloudy tonight and the air smelled damp. Although it wasn't raining, there wasn't much moonlight or starlight. He fell countless times along the way, but he got up again and ran.

If he doesn't get up, he will die, he will die here!

Ignoring the wound on his knee, he covered his broken arm and ran frantically. Only by running could he survive!

His cell phone had been broken just now and he had no way to ask for help. Now he could only save himself.

"uncle."

He heard a little girl's voice, and it seemed to be ringing right next to his ears.

"Come and play together."

He stopped suddenly.

Sitting on the roadside ahead was a little girl covered in blood. She had no lower body and her body below the waist was a mess of flesh and blood, dripping with smelly blood.

"Your blood smells so good."

When he stopped for a moment, a dry hand grabbed his neck and another hand pulled his clothes. The cold air froze the bleeding wound on his arm. It was a ghost sucking his blood.

His calves were also feeling cold. He looked down and saw a ghost face suddenly sticking to his calves. The chill penetrated through the fabric and into his bones, making him shiver.

"Save me, someone save me!"

Perhaps the heavens heard his cries, and he saw a man wearing glasses walking towards him. He struggled to break free from the female ghost and ran forward: "Quick, call the police! Save me! Save--"

After seeing the man's appearance clearly, his voice stopped abruptly. It was indeed the image of a normal, ordinary office worker wearing glasses. There was no blood or wounds on his body, but his whole body was translucent.

He is also a ghost.

"I hope you can go to the police station yourself." The ghost wearing glasses spoke.

"No, no--" He fell to the ground, crying and shouting heartbreakingly, then got up crying and wanted to continue running, but a dark shadow came out from his shadow and grabbed his trouser leg.

The ghost wearing glasses looked at him coldly, but spoke politely: "Then drag him over."

He knew that this courtesy was not directed at him.

——

Chi Shen and Li Xu had already arrived at the Special Security Bureau to take statements. Not long after, someone suddenly knocked on the door and said with a strange look, "The suspect has turned himself in."

Xu Jiayuan, who was almost falling asleep while holding a pen, suddenly looked up: "Who? Where? Are you turning yourself in?"

Yuan Yiping had already walked out first and soon brought back a trembling young man. He looked confused and couldn't speak clearly. Xu Jiayuan could only quickly find someone to check on him, but was stopped by Yuan Yiping again.

"It's okay, he was just scared," Yuan Yiping said, "Pour him a cup of hot tea."

Xu Jiayuan stood up to pour tea. Chi Shen had already walked out of the recording room. Looking at the man trembling in the hall, he tilted his head and said, "Are you from the Bai family?"

Yuan Yiping looked up at Chi Shen and asked, "Do you know him?"

"I've seen it at Bai Hengqing's place." Chi Shen said.

Xu Jiayuan had already returned with the water. He asked, "There were so many people there that night, but you were able to remember him?"

Chi Shen smiled and said, "Because he was the most active and rushed to the front."

After hearing Chi Shen's words, the man suddenly woke up, and saw Yuan Yiping and Xu Jiayuan again, and was stunned.

Xu Jiayuan looked at him from the side and asked, "Did you do anything about the Gangbei construction site?"

The man shook his head suddenly: "No!"

Li Xu showed a miserable expression on the side: "I didn't even ask what happened."

Yuan Yiping said, "I'll go get the axe."

The man immediately lost his balance and slid off the chair, saying in horror: "I did it! I did it! I just wanted to make some money!"

Yuan Yiping smiled tiredly: "Let's go through the procedures."
