Chapter 457: Confident
Huo Qinghuang smiled and looked at Aunt Liu, "Aunt Liu, this Rejuvenating Pill is of course edible for you. But it hasn't been refined yet. Once Jiayue and I gather all the ingredients and refine it successfully, you will definitely get a share."
Aunt Liu smiled so much that the wrinkles on her face smoothed out. "Thank you so much, Miss. I was just hoping to be a few years younger."
Huo Jiayue urged, "Sister, let's eat quickly, and then go prepare the ingredients. We also need to buy some Ganoderma lucidum leaves, so let's go to the pharmacy first."
"What's the hurry?"
Huo Qinghuang took out a handwritten book of elixir recipes from the cave, "First, learn the theory thoroughly. It records the alternatives for thirty-six kinds of medicinal materials. You should memorize it in the next two days."
This was the notebook she had prepared earlier, and now she took it out directly without hiding from others.
Huo Jiayue and Liu Ma's eyes widened instantly and looked at her in disbelief.
Sister/Miss, you didn’t have anything in your hand just now, right? Where did this letter come from?
"Sister, you, what are you doing..."
Huo Jiayue stuttered, pointing at the pill recipe notebook, his eyes wide open, full of shock and curiosity, "Where did you put this notebook? How did it suddenly appear?"
Aunt Liu was also shocked, her mouth slightly opened, her eyes full of doubt: "Miss, is this... a spell?"
Seeing the surprised expressions of the two people, Huo Qinghuang couldn't help but smile and explained: "This is a storage space. Things are stored in it and can be taken out whenever needed."
“Is it the storage bag in the novel?”
Huo Jiayue's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Can you show it to me?"
"Almost. But it's fixed and I can't take it out."
Huo Qinghuang didn't explain too much.
"Now is not the time to talk about this. You should memorize the contents of this notebook first. These alternative medicinal materials may come in handy when refining pills."
"Okay, sister, I will recite it well!"
Huo Jiayue quickly took the notebook and couldn't wait to read it.
I gasped as soon as I opened the first page.
She was dazzled by the dense array of medicinal material properties and proportion formulas.
"Sister, this..."
"What?" Huo Qinghuang raised an eyebrow. "Who said that we have to learn it no matter how difficult it is?"
Huo Jiayue gritted her teeth and said, "I'll learn!"
As he spoke, he buried his head in studying it and didn't even bother to touch his favorite soup dumplings.
A hint of relief flashed in Huo Qinghuang's eyes. Just as she was about to say something, her cell phone suddenly rang.
It was a call from Liu Changzhou.
"Hello, Director Liu, why are you calling so early? Is there any new progress in the case?"
Huo Qinghuang picked up the phone and asked.
On the other end of the phone, Liu Changzhou's voice was a little serious: "Ms. Huo, the professor has been successfully arrested by us.
However, during the interrogation, he kept refusing to admit his guilt. Please come to the police station to assist us when it is convenient.
After all, you hold the key evidence and are more familiar with the case. "
Huo Qinghuang frowned slightly: "Okay, I understand, I'll be there in a moment."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Qinghuang looked at Huo Jiayue and said, "Jiayue, the police station has something for me, so I have to go over there. You study it yourself first, and I'll teach you after I'm done."
Huo Jiayue was a little disappointed, but still nodded: "Okay, sister, you go ahead and do your work. I'll study it myself first."
At this time, Aunt Liu had quickly packed a large bag of soup dumplings for her, and Huo Qinghuang took it and left.
When she got out of the elevator, there was only one bun left in her hand.
After throwing the bag into the trash can, she walked out of the community gate leisurely.
When we arrived at the police station, Liu Changzhou was already waiting at the door.
Seeing Huo Qinghuang, he hurriedly came forward: "Miss Huo, I am really sorry to trouble you. The professor is very stubborn and we can't do anything to him for the time being. Besides..."
Huo Qinghuang raised her eyes to look at him.
Liu Changzhou's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could almost pinch a fly to death. "And the deaths of the other seven girls, whether from the autopsy results or the on-site investigation, were indeed suicides. So even if there is documentary proof, as long as he doesn't admit it, it's really hard for us to convict him."
"So stubborn?"
Huo Qinghuang raised her eyelids slightly, "Where is that beast now? I'll go meet him."
Liu Changzhou brought Huo Qinghuang to the interrogation room. Through the one-way glass, Huo Qinghuang saw a middle-aged man wearing glasses and looking decent. He was sitting on a chair, with a relaxed body and a fearless look on his face.
"Is it him?" Huo Qinghuang asked.
"Yes, it's him, Professor Chen Yushen of X University."
Liu Changzhou said helplessly, "We have interrogated him for several hours, but he just won't admit his crime."
Huo Qinghuang pushed open the door and walked into the interrogation room.
When Chen Yushen saw Huo Qinghuang, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Huo Qinghuang's eyes scanned him and finally stopped at the black jade plate on his chest.
"No wonder he's so stubborn, it turns out he has two tricks up his sleeve."
Huo Qinghuang leaned lazily on the back of the chair and spoke in a light tone.
Chen Yushen's pupils shrank slightly, but he remained silent, looking like he was resisting talking.
"It seems you won't give up until you reach the Yellow River. But I don't have time to waste on you, so I'll let you have a taste of my methods."
As she spoke, she stood up, walked in front of Chen Yushen, stretched out a finger and touched his forehead.
"etc!"
Liu Changzhou hurriedly shouted: "Miss Huo, what are you going to do?"
"Soul search."
Huo Qinghuang said as a matter of course.
"What? Soul search?"
Liu Changzhou looked confused.
However, another young police officer in the interrogation room widened his eyes instantly and asked curiously, "Is it the kind of soul search in novels where the person becomes demented after the soul search?"
“I guess so.”
Huo Qinghuang nodded and continued to point with his finger.
Chen Yushen's expression had completely changed at this time, and he finally looked panicked.
He didn't expect that this young girl in front of him actually knew how to search souls!
“No!”
Liu Changzhou understood and hurried to stop him.
"Ms. Huo, he came to the interrogation in good condition, but he became demented after the interrogation. If it gets out, it will be considered as our dereliction of duty, which is not good."
Huo Qinghuang frowned slightly, his finger stopped in mid-air, and looked at Liu Changzhou: "Director Liu, this is the fastest way to make him confess."
Liu Changzhou was helpless, and the wrinkles on his face deepened a little: "Ms. Huo, I understand your desire to have him brought to justice, but we police officers pay attention to evidence and procedures when handling cases. Soul searching is really against the rules.
If he really becomes demented, not only will our police station be in trouble, but you will also be in unnecessary trouble."
The young police officer next to him murmured quietly: "But if not, when will this case be solved..."
Liu Changzhou glared at the young police officer, who shrank his neck and stopped talking.
Huo Qinghuang thought for a moment, retracted his fingers, and sat back in his chair: "Okay, since you don't agree, I'll think of another way.
But this case cannot be delayed any longer, there may be other forces behind him."
