Chapter 111 Investigation in Guizhou



"Today I'll teach you how to use your divine sense." Xu Chen pulled Wang Li into the convenience store, bought drinks, and sat on a bench in the front yard.

"Concentrate your mind and focus your energy on the villa in front of you," Xu Chen began his telepathic instruction.

Wang Li put down her drink and began staring at the villa in front of her. Soon, her spiritual energy circulated within her body and entered her mind. Wang Li felt a tickling sensation in her mind, and then she saw strange ripples emanating from between her eyebrows. Wherever the ripples passed, every blade of grass, every tree, every stone, and every grain of sand was clearly etched into her mind.

"Your comprehension is good. Now, let these ripples, which are your divine sense, cover that villa."

Wang Li felt it was very strange. She seemed to be able to see everything in front of her and behind her. Then, as Xu Chen had said, she controlled the ripples to cover the villa.

"Chenchen, this is amazing," Wang Li replied in her mind.

"Alright, Lily, now observe carefully and find anything you think can be used as evidence, such as a safe or ledgers. I'll go and steal it."

"Alright, Chenchen." Wang Li began to carefully observe the things in the villa, and of course she also saw the village bully himself, an old man in his early sixties with a kind face but a sinister look in his eyes. At this moment, the village bully was watching TV with his grandson in the living room. She focused on the things in the village bully's room and found a safe hidden in a corner among many gift bags. Inside, there was an account book lying perfectly.

"Chenchen, you were right. There really is an account book. It's in the leftmost room on the third floor, but the old man is inside."

"Okay, Lili, don't move around here, I'll be right back." Then, under the cover of night, he flew to the third floor, arrived at the room Wang Li had mentioned, shook the door open, put the safe into his storage bag, and went out to meet Wang Li.

"Lili, come here."

"Chenchen, did you steal it?"

"We've stolen it. Now we just need to look at this ledger."

The two met up on the hill behind the village. They stared intently at the safe.

"Lili, shall we do it?"

"I'll do it!" Wang Li punched the safe directly, instantly piercing the steel plate and easily obtaining the ledger. The two carefully examined it and actually found some valuable information.

"Chenchen, what should we do next?"

“Call Dad and tell him we’ll pay for Grandpa Chen Lei’s medical expenses.”

"Aren't you going to let the old man pay?"

“The old man’s money was also obtained by exploiting the villagers, and he must be dealt with according to the law.”

After saying that, Xu Chen dialed his father's number. At that moment, Xu Jianguo was on his way home.

"Hey, son, what's wrong?"

"Dad, there's something I need to tell you."

Xu Chen then explained the whole story to Xu Jianguo in detail. Xu Jianguo said in a deep voice, "Okay, I'll make a call. Hand over the ledgers then, and come back early."

"good."

The two waited for more than an hour before someone from the fireworks market arrived in the village and dialed Xu Chen's number.

"Hello Xu Chen, we are from the Yanhua City Supervisory Commission."

"Come to the convenience store, I'll give you the items."

After the handover was completed at the convenience store, Xu Chen briefly explained what had happened. The members of the Yanhua City Supervisory Commission took the ledger away, and then Xu Chen took Wang Li back to Xingcheng City.

"Chen Lei, this is the medical expense we got for you."

Chen Lei opened the door and found Xu Chen and Wang Li standing outside, handing him their bank cards.

"So fast? I thought..."

"Don't worry, Grandpa Chen can go back to the village after he recovers. There's nothing to worry about."

"Where is that old beast?"

"He'll probably be taken away for investigation tomorrow."

After accepting Chen Lei's thanks, Xu Chen and Wang Li left the hotel.

"Lili, would you like to stay here for the night?"

"Ah, I want to go home, Chenchen." Wang Li felt unusually nervous upon hearing Xu Chen's words. "Besides, Chenchen, I don't have my ID card with me."

"I brought it, Lili." Xu Chen smiled wickedly, took out his ID card from his storage bag, and pulled the blushing Wang Li back to the hotel to book a room.

"Chenchen, let's not... let's not stay up too late." With that, Xu Chen carried Wang Li into the room.

The next morning, the two checked out of the hotel and Xu Chen set off for Guizhou Province. According to Qin Junlin's address, Xu Chen arrived in Wupanshui City, Guizhou Province a minute later. With a thorough search using his divine sense, he quickly found the whereabouts of Qin Junlin and the others.

"Boss."

"Instructor."

"Welcome, instructor!"

The ten team members, including Qin Junlin, saluted Xu Chen upon his arrival. Xu Chen waved his hand and looked towards the distant mountain peaks.

"How is the situation?"

"The situation is not optimistic. Our soldiers found footprints in the mountains that they hadn't had time to clean up."

"Who? What's their identity?"

"The initial assessment is that it is Vietnamese monkey, as the shoes look very similar to those worn by the Vietnamese army. However, we cannot rule out the possibility that it is someone else impersonating him."

Xu Chen paced back and forth in thought, and then he was surprised to find that his teammates were all staring at him blankly.

"Hurry up and act according to the plan. What are you looking at me for?"

"Boss, what Old Tang means is that if you come, we will follow your orders."

Xu Chen rubbed his face, feeling like he'd been kidnapped by that old guy again.

"Take me to see the situation first. You guys take the soldiers and keep watch around the area."

After saying that, Qin Junlin led Xu Chen up the mountain to begin exploring the ruins of this martial arts sect.

"How do you know this is a martial arts sect?" Xu Chen looked around and saw that there were no buildings, only some ruins. At first glance, it did not seem like a sect.

“Strange phenomenon. A few days ago, local people saw a bright light on this mountain. Then someone reported that a ruin appeared out of nowhere. After making inquiries from various sources and consulting the local county annals, we found that the elders and the county annals mentioned that immortals had once appeared here. This coincides with the strange phenomenon.”

"The barrier has probably disappeared. Let's keep looking." Xu Chen and Qin Junlin walked through the ruins but still couldn't find anything. The two went down the mountain, and the group gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

"Let's go, let's go. At worst, we'll get a scolding from Old Tang."

"You little rascal, the boss won't scold you, will he?" Qin Junlin said with a laugh.

"I won't curse, I'll just hit," Xu Chen joked, then continued, "Judging from the timeline, it's impossible for us to catch these people; they might have already fled far away."

Everyone lowered their heads, seemingly lost in thought.

"There is only one way now."

The team members all looked at Xu Chen.

"Quickly gather police and soldiers to surround this place in layers, find some so-called experts who fabricate stories, and bring in reporters from various TV stations and major platforms to conduct interviews. Make sure the whole country knows that an extraordinary ancient site has appeared in Wupanshui City, Guizhou Province, and that the site has high research value."

"Boss, do you mean to lure the snake out of its hole?"

"This method is just a matter of luck," Xu Chen said helplessly.
