Chapter 185 Illegal Detention



"Rong Er, try the new hot pot. This is a four-grid hot pot with mushroom soup, clear soup, bone soup, and spicy hot pot soup. This was left by the detective brother. The most important thing is, the vegetables are really fragrant and tender."

Ji Yingying sighed, "This makes me really miss my detective brothers!"

I miss him too.

What do you want from him? Six-pack abs, or nine-pack abs, hmm?

[Nine yuan? ??? Host, I feel like I've ruined things for you, I don't want to anymore.]

【hehe……】

Rong Er listened to their conversation and suddenly thought of nine-pack abs... Maybe because they had been together for a long time, he understood the meaning of this sentence, and his face suddenly turned red and his heart beat fast.

"Hey, Rong Er, why is your face so red?"

Rong Er doesn't have the tough guy face; instead, he has a feminine look, a bit like a pretty boy or a sissy. But he's incredibly strong in martial arts. If someone like that were to walk in the sunlight, he would definitely look like a scholar.

Moreover, he was the kind of scholar who was easy to bully.

Unfortunately, he walked in the darkness, like a venomous snake, watching everyone.

Ah... the hot pot is hot!

"Yeah, hot pot is hot, and there's floor heating in this room, so it's really hot."

He looks so handsome like this, like a doting husband.

You're treating a bodyguard like a pampered husband?

[It's not impossible. Go back and have An Yi write a story about a spoiled young husband; that should be quite good.]

"Whatever you like." Xiangxiang had nothing to say. Looking out through the beaded curtain, she asked again, "Want some melon seeds?"

【eat】

【Then let's lift this unsightly beaded curtain and look outside. I think I see some red melons, but I haven't been able to tell you exactly what they are yet.】

Ji Yingying was about to lift the bead curtain when Rong Er did the same.

Wow, this man has a good eye. I was just about to make a move when he struck. Let's see what good gossip he has to offer.

[That woman, did you see her?]

[I saw it, is she wearing a veil?]

Yes, guess what kind of gossip she has?

[I saw red on her head, she must have killed someone, right? Even if she didn't kill someone, she could have been beheaded.]

Yes, she killed people, or rather, she indirectly killed several people.

[Tell us quickly, this is a chance to make a name for ourselves! If we do, we'll get lots of good stuff.]

She committed unlawful detention.

"What? You mean to imprison or confine someone?" Ji Yingying was somewhat surprised. Such a seemingly weak girl was actually so capable that she had managed to imprison someone.

Yes, guess what kind of person she's keeping under house arrest?

"A girl? Or a boy, a child?" Ji Yingying asked. Apart from these defenseless people, she couldn't think of any other type of person who could be imprisoned by her.

No, no, no, I mean a grown man, even a middle-aged man, the kind who's very strong.

[How did she arrange the confinement?] That's a question; one must have the ability to confine someone.

She was beautiful, very beautiful; isn't that the kind of woman men are attracted to? After she lured men home, she drugged them, knocked them unconscious, and locked them in a dilapidated room. She also gave them a muscle-relaxing drug, making them unable to move, causing them pain with any movement.

Why?

You probably know the word "collection," right?

I know that if you like something, you can't help but collect related items.

[Yes, she likes to collect handsome men, all types. That shabby house looks run-down from the outside, but it's nice inside; it has a bed, chairs, everything.]

"So, what kind of person is she?"

[Even excluding the fact that she physically harmed them, the people who died committed suicide because they couldn't bear her torment. After they died, she would directly return them to the man's doorstep and give them back. More importantly, she would even put on makeup for the dead men and dress them up respectably.]

[Isn't anyone going to sue her?]

No one knows she did it, simply because she keeps a low profile; she's currently looking for a new man.

[How many handsome men did she collect? What happened to them?]

[She has seven or eight men in her collection, not including the dead. Those men were quite good to her; aside from being weak, she basically never abused them. She treated them well, providing them with good food and drink, and she did it herself. She didn't dare tell anyone.]

Is it yellow or not?

[Huang, use your imagination.]

"Fine, I don't want to. Tell me how many people died at her hands?"

[There were five or six, and she delivered them all personally. However, she also harmed quite a few people; most of those men were married and had children.]

[What? I'm quite shocked. They're already married, why would they do this?]

[He's probably a psychopath.]

She must have had an unhappy childhood.

[You're mistaken. She's happy, very happy. She has parents, brothers, and sisters who all treat her well, even giving her a considerable amount of money and inheritance. It's a pity, though; she's been mentally disturbed since childhood.]

What is this?

How she developed into a psychopath, nobody knows, not even me. All the gossip says is: she liked collecting handsome men, but as for the details, I have no idea.

[Xiangxiang, do you think it's possible that this world is a fake world, like an otome game, or that we're being controlled by the plot?]

[Impossible. There's no system more advanced than mine, and there's no storyline. If there were, I would know. It's definitely not a otome game; otome games are games, and this doesn't look like a game at all!]

Ji Yingying also felt that Xiangxiang was right. It was indeed not an otome game, but how could a normal girl be so perverted?

It’s okay to just like uncles, but you also like to keep them in captivity. What do you think of people?

[Write it down in a memorial, and I'll have Rong Er give it to Lord Gongsun later, so they can handle it and rescue the person.]

"You're right, we have to rescue her. Those people are all after revenge; they want to kill that woman."

I suddenly want to see what that woman looks like? She's wearing a veil, so I can't see her face at all.

[It was quite good, but it's not as good lately because it learned some evil magic—a kind of evil magic in this world, similar to the Gu poison of the Miao people in modern times.]

[That can't be right, this world still has Gu poison, so what's with this evil magic?]

[It involves writing down someone's birth date and time, then pasting it onto a effigy to absorb their luck.]

Oh... you can do that?

Yes, but the backlash would be severe. Her luck had been drained, and her face is now disfigured.

Ji Yingying frowned. Could there really be evil magic? If so, are there other kinds of magic, such as the Imperial Preceptor... No, the court doesn't have an Imperial Preceptor, only a Grand Tutor. This is a proper world, and those evil arts should be prohibited.
