Chapter 91 No Progress
Shen Qing held the already cold coffee cup, his knuckles leaving fine water marks on the wall of the cup.
The clock on the wall of the police station pointed to three in the morning. His bloodshot eyes were reflected in the glass window. Opposite him sat Fang Changling, who was also tired and distressed.
He has been in the police station for nearly five days. The clues of Ye Xiang and the others are like sand in the palm of his hand. The harder he tries, the faster they slip away.
The enemy's actions are getting closer and closer, more and more people are missing, and disasters are happening more and more frequently.
But every time they arrived at the scene, the other party was nowhere to be found, and they didn't even get many clues.
Xiao Qihao's disappearance was like a stone sinking into a deep pool, without causing even the slightest ripple.
Fang Changling also became more and more anxious in this silence.
If your phone vibrates on your desktop, it is a useless MLM message.
--------
He took some time out during these few days to go back to the underworld. When he walked into the Yin-Yang Gate, a strong smell of blood hit him in the face.
There were dark purple bloodstains winding across the jade floor tiles, and the Ox-Head and Horse-Faced Demons who were supposed to be on duty here were indeed gone.
Meng Po also looked older than before, with ice crystal-like curse marks condensed between her white hair.
Shen Qingze's pupils suddenly shrank. This was clearly Renly's magic, but Meng Po didn't seem to be affected at all.
The dark figure had long disappeared from the hall.
"Let them get away again."
Shen Qing held the sword tightly for protection, and the tassel of the sword rustled in the cold wind.
In recent fights, that group of people always disappeared into the black fog when they were about to be defeated, without even leaving a corner of their clothes behind.
What's even more bizarre is that the Yellow Spring Road, which is supposed to control reincarnation, begins to emit a strange red light.
There were several nameless corpses in black floating on the bottom of the Naihe Bridge, with curse marks similar to Meng Po's on their chests.
Would Renly attack his men again?
The sound of midnight clappers penetrated the palace. Shen Qing looked at the blood-fog-swept Wangchuan River and suddenly remembered,
When he was tracking down Renly's whereabouts, he found a half-volume of the incomplete "Records of the Underworld" in an abandoned house on the outskirts of the city. On the yellowed pages it was clearly recorded: "On the day of the blood moon that eclipses the soul, hundreds of ghosts break into the underworld."
"What on earth do they want to do..."
Ye Luweisi's soul is still in Ye Xiang's hands, and what he fears most is still the uncertainty of Ye Xiang.
-------
The incandescent lights in the police station made a crackling sound at midnight. Shen Qing rubbed his temples and threw a pile of new case files from the past few days on the table. Fang Changling was frowning at the messy clues on the whiteboard.
The marker pen hung over the red circle of "Xiao Qihao is missing" for a long time, but finally put it down dejectedly.
"This bunch of daring cowards..."
Qin Xiyang couldn't help but become more and more irritated. It seemed that everyone was affected by the depressed atmosphere.
The smell of cold instant noodles floated in the air, so oppressive that it made people feel breathless.
"Help! Save my daughter!"
The heart-wrenching cry suddenly pierced the silence.
The door of the police station was shaken violently, and a man stumbled in.
The black coat was stained with mud, the leather shoe on his right foot was missing, and the exposed socks had holes in them.
His eyes were dazed, his red eye sockets were filled with tears, snot mixed with cold sweat flowed down his nose, and his hands were tightly grasping the metal railing of the reporting window, his knuckles were white and looked like they were about to break.
"My daughter...my daughter has been taken away! Please..."
The man's knees went weak and he sat on the ground, his voice full of tears and he almost collapsed.
Shen Qingze rushed out of the office upon hearing the noise, but stopped abruptly when he saw the man's face clearly.
Wasn't that face distorted by fear the taxi driver who had brought him to the police station earlier?
At that time, the other party was still chatting with him happily, saying that his daughter would not allow him to switch to private orders. The honest and simple middle-aged man was like a frightened quail at this moment.
The familiar navy blue baseball cap was tilted on the man's head, and there were strange purple marks on his neck under the brim, as if it had been pinched by some invisible hand.
He didn't care about his ugly appearance, he just prayed to the Lord, repeating in his mouth,
"Please save her..."
"She's been taken... She's gone!"
Shen Qing handed the warm water to the driver's trembling hands. The plastic cup made a slight clash sound in the driver's bony palms.
There were large water stains on the leather sofa in the lounge area. It was hard to tell whether it was sweat or tears.
Fang Changling silently turned off the incandescent lamp hanging above his head, leaving only a wall lamp casting a warm yellow halo on the man's sunken cheeks.
Shen Qingze then noticed that the driver looked much older after not seeing him for a long time.
The purple and tired face, and the mostly emaciated body,
The driver seemed to have not recovered from the panic and spoke unsteadily.
"Please take your time."
Shen Qing sat beside him, leaning sideways to look at him, trying to keep his eyes level with his.
He noticed that the skin exposed from the man's sleeves was covered with scars and there was black dirt embedded in the cracks between his fingernails.
The driver suddenly started coughing violently, banging his knuckles against the wall of the cup.
"Nannan...she always said that it's unsafe outside recently and asked me to stop driving for Didi."
The Adam's apple rolled and the sobs were swallowed.
"She works for a big company and says she earns enough for my daughter and I to spend..."
The voice stopped abruptly, and the man suddenly stared at Shen Qingze with bloodshot eyes, as if trying to dig out a glimmer of hope from him.
"The day before yesterday I went to the market to buy her favorite sea bass..."
The hoarse voice began to tremble.
"When I got home, I saw the bear slippers in the entrance leaning on the ground, and her succulent potted plants were broken all over the floor."
He suddenly loosened his collar, leaving many bruises and purple marks under his clothes.
"I looked for her everywhere, and when I turned around I found her hiding under the bed in the room, like she was possessed by a ghost, and she told me to leave!"
Shen Qingze frowned, sensing something was amiss.
The man suddenly became excited.
"Then suddenly a group of people wrapped in black rushed in from outside the door! They took Nannan away directly! I couldn't stop them no matter what I did!"
His hammer head was so excited that his voice was trembling.
"I chased after them and saw a tall and thin man in the group, but he was incredibly strong!"
"He grabbed my neck and, with a hoarse voice that was not human, warned me not to meddle in other people's business!"
"I thought about calling the police... but by the time I turned around to call the police..."
The man suddenly covered his face, sobbing from between his fingers.
"When I turned around again, the person was gone, completely gone!"
--------
Xiao Qihao curled up in front of the French window, stroking the cold glass with his fingertips unconsciously.
The sound of the iron chain dragging on the ground came from far away, mixed with suppressed sobs and heavy breathing, and drilled into the eardrum through the window crack like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue.
He was under house arrest by Ye Xiang, and could only stare out the French window every day. He felt increasingly unwilling, but he could do nothing about it.
He had no idea of the passage of time, he only knew that Ye Xiang would come to see him at certain times.
Either being intimate, or saying some flirtatious words, or talking about outside situations to deliberately irritate him,
He tried many ways to escape from this gorgeous cell, but couldn't.
Suddenly, he saw several men in black walking in with another person hostage.
That person was different from the previous one. She was in a mess, but her clothes were intact.
The most shocking thing was Renly appearing right behind them!
