Chapter 20
Xie Bei quickly returned to Gu Tanxi and Jiang Youqi.
He was spotless, and the khaki mist blocked the dust for him and also provided him with oxygen.
Gu Tanxi reached out and touched the thin mist.
"Looks really impressive."
Xie Bei smiled at Gu Tanxi and said to Jiang Youqi, "There's someone inside."
"You wait for me here." Jiang Youqi said and went in by himself.
Gu Tanxi was watching by the wall.
Jiang Youqi ran to the side of the house with his back bent.
The windows and doors were all closed.
But Jiang Youqi has a secret way to unlock the door, and the lock is of no use to him.
He opened the door and went in easily.
Gu Tanxi could no longer see anything, but only heard some movement inside.
"Aren't we going to help?"
"The boss is so powerful, he doesn't need our help." Xie Bei said.
It only takes a moment.
Jiang Youqi grabbed Liu Linjie and came out.
Seeing this, Gu Tanxi and Xie Bei immediately jumped over the wall and ran over.
"Caught? Is that true?" Xie Bei asked.
Liu Linjie lowered his head, and Jiang Youqi grabbed his hair and pulled his head up.
“This looks quite real.”
Liu Linjie gritted his teeth, closed his lips tightly, and didn't say a word.
Gu Tanxi moved a little closer and saw a little Q-shaped figure emerging from Liu Linjie's head.
"Are you real or a wooden man?" Gu Tanxi asked.
Liu Linjie looked at Gu Tanxi with a wary look in his eyes.
He doesn't speak.
But Gu Tanxi was not asking him.
The little Q-man on Liu Linjie's head snorted in a proud manner.
"I won't tell you, I'm a puppet!"
"Oh, you are a puppet." Gu Tanxi nodded and said to Jiang Youqi, "He is fake."
"Fake?" Jiang Youqi freed one hand, and with a flash of golden light, his fingertips turned into blades.
Cut into Liu Linjie's arm.
No blood!
“It’s fake!”
Liu Linjie looked at Gu Tanxi in astonishment, "How did you know..."
The little wooden Q-man panicked and crawled back into Liu Linjie's hair.
"Oops, this woman can hear me!"
Jiang Youqi used his supernatural power to summon a sharp blade and directly cut the puppet's neck.
The puppet's true form was revealed in an instant.
A wooden man fell to the ground with a thud.
There were several villagers watching nearby. One second they thought they had killed someone, and the next second they saw this wooden man and were so scared that they ran away.
Gu Tanxi said, "What should we do now? We've been searching for it for so long and it's still fake. Where did the real one go?"
At this time, the wooden man and the little Q man appeared again.
"I know, I know."
Gu Tanxi squatted down and looked at the little guy: "Where did he go?"
The little Q man said, "Take me away and I will tell you."
"Okay, I allow you to follow me from now on."
"He left not long ago."
"How did he leave?" Gu Tanxi asked the little Q man on the wall, who said he came in but didn't go out.
Why did you leave?
The little Q said, "There's a tunnel in the kitchen. He left through the tunnel. He left not long ago. You can probably catch up with him if you chase him."
Jiang Youqi found it strange to see her talking alone.
But I feel like there is news.
"How about it?"
"There is a secret passage in the kitchen. He ran away through the secret passage and left not long ago." Gu Tanxi said.
"I'll go after him." Xie Bei said, he is good at escaping underground!
Xie Bei said this and went into the kitchen to chase Liu Linjie.
Jiang Youqi called the police and asked them to take the wooden man back.
Gu Tanxi had been chasing Liu Linjie for a whole day and felt that it was not easy to catch the criminal.
"Captain Jiang, when you were trying to catch people, you always ran around like this. Didn't you always fail to catch them?"
"Some criminals are very smart and good at hiding. It's not uncommon to catch them after months of pursuit. Let's go." Jiang Youqi looked at Xie Bei's location on his phone and followed it to chase him.
Gu Tanxi ran all the way and was exhausted.
But she still gritted her teeth and followed Jiang Youqi.
Although it was tiring, I felt a great sense of accomplishment.
Jiang Youqi received a call on the way.
This is the news from the person who is monitoring the two supernatural masters around Liu Zhengxin.
The two men started causing chaos in the downtown area ten minutes ago, then took advantage of the chaos to escape and are now missing.
I suspect he went to meet Liu Linjie.
Jiang Youqi had a premonition that a fight was about to break out. He turned around to look at Gu Tanxi and said, "Go back and do your thing. Don't follow me here."
"Ah? Really? Then I'm leaving."
Gu Tanxi is too straightforward.
I'm not even used to Jiang Youqi anymore.
In the past, whoever he asked to go first would definitely show his affection and loyalty.
I have to say: Captain Jiang, I want to advance and retreat with you.
Jiang Youqi paused for a moment, and Gu Tanxi turned around and took out his mobile phone to check the navigation to see where the fastest way to leave.
Jiang Youqi said to be careful and left quickly.
Gu Tanxi also wanted to tell him to be careful, but when he turned around, the man was gone.
“You run really fast.”
The wooden man and the little Q man came running over with a ding ding ding sound.
"You said you would take me away."
"Then follow me." Gu Tanxi answered tiredly. She found a shortcut and wanted to leave here quickly. She went out to take a taxi and book a room in the nearest hotel to sleep.
I also need to order some takeout and eat my fill quickly.
She was so hungry, so tired, and felt sweaty. She really wanted to take a shower.
So many things happened at the same time that she didn't know which one to do first.
The wooden man and the little Q-man ran all the way after Gu Tanxi. When Gu Tanxi stopped to look at the navigation, he climbed up her trouser legs, got into the work pocket of her trouser legs, and squeezed together with Huangpijiang.
Gu Tanxi took a look and now had no time to pay attention to him.
She walked to the intersection and hailed a taxi.
"Go to the nearest An'an Hotel."
"Okay." The driver started the car and looked at Gu Tanxi in the rearview mirror. Since he had picked up a beautiful woman, of course he had to take a few more glances at her.
Gu Tanxi saw the driver's little girl staring with big eyes and a squinting smile on her face, so she stood on the driver's shoulder and looked at her.
Gu Tanxi never thought that one day he would find a pervert cute.
These mimicking little people are all cute.
Gu Tanxi deliberately took out his work ID from the Supernatural Bureau and flipped through it.
Put it back in your pocket.
The driver suddenly became more serious.
"Is the beauty from the Supernatural Bureau?"
Gu Tanxi responded: "Yeah."
The driver fell silent.
Drive honestly.

After Xie Bei came out of the secret passage, he saw shoe prints on the ground and followed the direction of the shoe prints.
But after chasing for a while, he found something wrong.
He stopped and looked at the footprints on the ground. They were so clear, obviously they were left there on purpose for him to see!
"I was careless."
At this time, Jiang Youqi caught up.
"How about it?"
Xie Bei said in frustration, "I've been fooled. The footprints must be fake, they're so clear."
"Look back." Jiang Youqi did not blame Xie Bei.
Solving problems when they arise has always been his style.
We can talk about accountability when we have time.
Once something happens, it is meaningless to hold anyone accountable on the spot.
When the two turned back, Jiang Youqi saw a patch of fallen grass not far away.
The mark was very small, as if it had been run over by a motorcycle wheel.
He went over, squatted down, took a look, and touched the broken grass.
There is still juice at the broken end.
"Boss, what did you find?" Xie Bei followed and asked.
"The grass was just broken and is still fresh. It seems that the man ran away with Liu Linjie." Jiang Youqi looked at the indentation and walked forward.
They would definitely not be able to catch up even if they chased him on two legs.
"I'll ask Brother Ye to come over." Xie Bei said and called Li Muye.
Li Muye sent Zhou Yue back to the bureau and arrived early.
After listening to the trial for a while at the police station, Zhou Yue's excuses were no longer of any use.
Her superpowers detected were the same as the superpower fluctuations found at the crime scene.
There were her fingerprints on the murder weapon, as well as traces of Li Sisi and Wu Fei's blood.
Zhou Yue knew that she couldn't escape, and even if she did, she wouldn't live long, so she explained the whole cause and effect.
After confessing his sins, Zhou Yue felt relieved.
She was in the interrogation room, smiling and crying.
In the short twenty-two years, she seemed to feel relaxed at this moment.
Knowing that my life is coming to an end, all those obsessions suddenly become unimportant.
What does it matter if you are good at studying or not? What does it matter if you have someone to love you or not?
When life is gone, everything is meaningless.
"I want to live, but can I still live?" Zhou Yue looked at the police in the interrogation room.
Through the blurred eyes of tears, the desire to live was projected into the eyes of every policeman.
But all the police remained silent.
Li Muye lived a carefree life for most of his life, and considered himself to be heartless and free.
But looking at Zhou Yue at this moment, he felt that his unrestrained nature was restrained.
No one can be truly free and easy in the face of death, right?
*
After Li Muye received a call from Jiang Youqi, he rushed over to them.
He moves quickly and can arrive in a few minutes.
The ability can be used frequently, but the energy consumption is also very high.
Li Muye took over the task of tracking the motorcycle.
Jiang Youqi and Xie Bei returned to get the car and followed Li Muye's location.

Gu Tanxi was drowsy in the car, he was really tired.
The driver suddenly shouted in panic when he was turning a corner.
"Fuck!"
Then brake suddenly.
Gu Tanxi rushed forward.
There was a loud bang.
She felt as if she was being tossed around by the car.
When her head was about to hit the glass, small vine seedlings grew wildly to cushion her impact.
She didn't see what was happening, she just heard a lot of childish voices in her ears.
"Ahhhhh! I'm dead again!"
"I'm flattened, I'm flattened, the shit is squeezed out of me."
"It hurts so much, I need to cry."
The car stopped at this time, and the driver got out cursing: "Can you even look at the road? Is this how you ride a motorcycle? Where did you come from?"
The motorcycle came out from the weeds on the side of the road and was going so fast that the front of the taxi was deformed by the collision.
The motorcycle slid out more than ten meters.
The two people in the car rolled to the east and the west.
When the driver saw that both of them were motionless, he thought they were dead and immediately called an ambulance.
Gu Tanxi got out of the car, covering his head.
Looking at the two people lying on the ground not far away.
It’s over, someone was killed.
The driver hung up the phone, obviously panicked.
The temper that was cursing just now is gone.
He walked over to check.
"You can't blame me for this. You guys rushed out on your own. I was driving normally. Oh, you're not dead, are you? Brother, are you okay? And it's a foreign brother. It's over. Beautiful, can you speak foreign languages? This is a foreigner."
Gu Tanxi asked, "Which country are you from? I only know a few words of English."
"This... should be someone who speaks English, right? Hey, he's awake, he's awake."
The driver immediately went over to look at the foreigner.
The foreign man was dizzy for a while, but now he woke up and immediately stood up.
"How are you? Are you okay? I've called an ambulance. If not, just sit and wait." said the driver.
When the foreigner heard that an ambulance had been called, he immediately became angry, stood up, grabbed the driver's neck, and said in not very standard Mandarin: "Don't send the ambulance!"
"Ah ah..." The driver was panicked and confused.
Patting the foreigner's hand, "Let go, let go."
Gu Tanxi stopped walking and looked at the man still lying on the ground at the other end.
This person... is Liu Linjie!
