Lu Qing used his fingerprint to open the door to the Investigation Bureau and led Yin Lili inside.
As soon as I entered, I saw Wang Yanjun with a cigarette in his mouth, grabbing someone's leg and dragging him inside.
Yin Lili turned deathly pale with fright and trembled as she backed away step by step.
Just as I stepped back to the doorway, I turned around and saw Gu Xicheng dragging that fat man in.
Under the light, Gu Xicheng's shadow enveloped Yin Lili, startling her so much that her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground, bursting into tears.
"Aren't you police officers? How come... how come it looks like the industrial park in northern Myanmar?"
Upon seeing this, Lu Qing quickly helped her up:
"I'm so sorry! I startled you!"
"Brother, Gu Xicheng, hurry up and drag him away." Lu Qing urged the two of them.
The two men immediately dragged the prisoner inside.
Lu Qing explained to Yin Lili:
"We are the Bureau of Investigation of Abnormal Cases, which is a special department of the National Security Bureau. We are responsible for serious cases caused by non-natural forces."
Upon hearing this, Yin Lili suddenly remembered a movie she had watched before.
"This...this can't be Bureau 749, can it?"
Lu Qing: "Um...they're pretty much the same, aren't they?"
"Was the fat man who attacked me a monster?" Yin Lili asked in a trembling voice.
Lu Qing: "It shouldn't be, but he just tried to eat you. I suspect he's connected to some supernatural force, so I brought him back."
Upon hearing this, Yin Lili was so frightened she almost fainted.
"He...he wants to eat me?"
Seeing that she was about to faint, Lu Qing quickly pinched her philtrum:
"Hey, hey, hey! Calm down! He didn't get to eat! You're perfectly fine!"
Yin Lili's tears, which she had managed to hold back, burst forth again.
"Waaaaah... What did I do to deserve this? I may be a mukbang streamer, but my meat doesn't taste good."
"Alright, alright! Stop crying! It's not like everyone wants to eat you!"
Lu Qing was both amused and exasperated. He helped her up and led her to the lounge.
"Stay here for a while. There's water and snacks over there. Feel free to eat whatever you like. If you get tired, you can lie down on the sofa for a bit."
"Don't wander around! There are plenty of monsters and demons around here. If you get eaten here, I'll be in big trouble."
Yin Lili nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"Don't worry! I promise I won't run around!"
Lu Qing smiled slightly, then left the lounge to interrogate the fat man.
Wang Yanjun had already begun his interrogation in the interrogation room.
"Name."
"Chen Zhonglong".
"age."
"Twenty-nine."
"Profession."
"A mukbang blogger known for his large appetite."
Why did you eat that girl?
Chen Zhonglong clenched his hands nervously:
"Because...because it looks delicious!"
Chen Zhonglong raised his head, his eyes gleaming green, clearly believing that he really did see Yin Lili as food.
Wang Yanjun slammed his fist on the table in anger:
"That's a person! A living, breathing person! Not a chicken, duck, or goose! How could you bring yourself to eat that?"
"What's so hard to eat?"
A sinister and perverse smile appeared on Chen Zhonglong's face:
"Chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, sheep, and pigs are all livestock, and humans are also livestock, so why can't we eat them?"
"Officer, let me tell you! Human flesh tastes delicious!"
"Especially young and clean girls, and newborn babies, their flesh is extremely tender and smooth. Once you've tasted it, you'll never forget it!"
Wang Yanjun narrowed his eyes slightly:
"So, you've eaten this before?"
"I've eaten there! Only once!"
Chen Zhonglong couldn't help but reminisce about that taste, his face filled with delight.
"Where did you eat? Who gave it to you?" Wang Yanjun asked coldly.
Chen Zhonglong immediately came to his senses and shook his head:
"No! You can't tell!"
"If I tell you, you will definitely arrest him. If you arrest him, I will never be able to eat such delicious food again."
"If we don't catch him, you won't get to eat it again!"
Wang Yanjun looked coldly at Chen Zhonglong:
"If you don't cooperate, you'll be locked up here forever, and you'll never get out!"
At this moment, Lu Qing walked in, carrying a bowl of rice.
"Chen Zhonglong, you've been working for so long, you must be hungry!"
We're quite humane here; we won't skimp on your food and drink.
"But the food and drinks here are definitely not as good as those outside, so just make do!"
Lu Qing placed the rice in front of Chen Zhonglong.
Chen Zhonglong had just climbed the nineteenth floor, and he had come on an empty stomach for this meal. With his build, he was naturally starving.
But when he looked at the food in front of him, he immediately lost his appetite.
The so-called meal was just a bunch of green vegetables and radishes with eggs, boiled in water, and mixed with a little soy sauce and vinegar.
This is one of the worst-tasting weight-loss meals.
"Is there...is there nothing else to eat?" Chen Zhonglong asked, looking pale and sickly.
Lu Qing chuckled softly:
"Do you think this is your home? You can't just eat whatever you want and drink whatever you want here!"
"Let me tell you, the prisoners here only deserve this kind of treatment."
"You will not only have to eat this kind of food today, but also tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and the day after that, and even for the rest of your life."
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhonglong's face grew even paler.
"No! I don't want to eat this! I don't want to eat this!"
"Don't you want to eat?" Lu Qing smiled at him.
"Sure! As long as you tell me who fed you human flesh, I'll let you leave here, how about it?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhonglong still hesitated.
Lu Qing wasn't in a hurry. He calmly took a sip of water and said:
"It doesn't matter, take your time to think about it. Anyway, even if you don't tell us, we'll definitely find out."
But by then you won't even have a chance to make amends; you'll be stuck here for the rest of your life.
With that, Lu Qing and Wang Yanjun got up to leave.
Chen Zhonglong cried out anxiously, "Wait!"
"If I tell you, will you let me out?"
Lu Qing and Wang Yanjun exchanged a glance and smiled:
"I promise, as long as you tell me, I'll let you leave here."
As for where to go, that's not up to him to decide.
Chen Zhonglong didn't understand Lu Qing's implied meaning and told her everything he knew.
"I met him at the last food festival. He said he was a chef who could make the most delicious food in the world."
I didn't believe him, so he brought me a bowl of soup. I took just one sip and I was hooked!
The soup tasted absolutely delicious; I've never had such a flavorful soup before.
I asked him what kind of soup it was, and he said it was mutton soup, but I couldn't taste any muttony smell.
I want to know how he did it, but he refuses to tell me.
When I got home, nothing tasted good; all I could think about was that soup.
Lu Qing: "Who is that chef? Do you know his name?"
Chen Zhonglong: "At first I didn't know, but then I met him again. I wanted to buy another bowl of soup from him, so he let me go to his house."
He said I could have soup, but I would have to pay a price.
Wang Yanjun frowned and asked, "What price?"
Chen Zhonglong pursed his lips, his face pale, and said, "You'll see when you lift up my clothes."
Wang Yanjun stepped forward and lifted Chen Zhonglong's clothes.
The next second, everyone inside and outside the house was startled.
