Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi were not far from the pedestrian street, so they arrived at Bai Xinyu's place quickly. However, Ye Dongfeng and the others were in the western suburbs, so it would probably take them a little longer to get there.
As soon as Yue Jiuling saw Bai Xinyu and Mu Xiaoyi, she asked, "What happened? You said someone is missing?"
Mu Xiaoyi pointed to the two small geckos in the corner and said, "It was these two who said that they saw a group of homeless people being captured by a monster. So we came to check, and we didn't expect there to be any residual demonic energy here."
"A monster is capturing humans? How could this happen? Are there any security cameras around here? Otherwise, it'll be hard to investigate!"
Ya Zi frowned upon hearing the news. He had only just followed Yue Jiuling and hadn't had a chance to ask what had happened.
At this moment, Bai Xinyu, who had been fiddling with her phone, spoke up. She said, "No, there are no surveillance cameras here. I just checked the surveillance footage around here, and I didn't expect there to be no cameras on this street. There is one at the street corner ahead, but it's not filming from this direction."
Without surveillance, it's impossible to know what kind of monster took the homeless man away. Moreover, according to the two little geckos' description, the monster had a human body, but its head was very strange. They said the monster's head was very big, like a large gong or drum. It only had one eye and one mouth, and it didn't even have a nose.
"It, its mouth opened very wide, and there were very big and long teeth inside, it was so scary! Then, I saw that monster open its mouth and suck in all those humans, shrinking them and sucking them into its mouth!"
Hearing the little gecko's description, Yue Jiuling was furious. She said, "Is this what you call catching people? This is clearly eating people! It's practically swallowing people whole!"
The little gecko shook its head firmly and said, "No, no, it didn't swallow them. It didn't swallow those people. I even saw it spit them out later, then grab them and carry them away."
"Oh my god, can't you just finish what you're saying?" Yue Jiuling was terrified. "Okay, I thought I was really swallowed."
Mu Xiaoyi knew that Yue Jiuling was afraid that those people had really been eaten and would never be found again. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, they should still be alive. I just detected signs of life in this pile of garbage."
As she spoke, she kicked the pile of tattered clothes on the ground.
Those were all things left behind by homeless people. Mu Xiaoyi had a way to detect from those things whether the people who used them were still alive.
Upon learning that the homeless people were not dead, Bai Xinyu asked, "Since you can detect their survival, can you also detect their location?"
Mu Xiaoyi held a ballpoint pen in her hand and took out a small blue notebook, saying, "Actually, I think it's probably impossible to find, because that monster doesn't look simple at all, but I can give it a try."
"It's okay, you can try looking for it first."
Just as Mu Xiaoyi was about to start looking for the whereabouts of the homeless people, she saw Ye Dongfeng and Yinni walking towards her, carrying a ghost and cursing.
Ye Dongfeng cursed and hit the ghost at the same time: "You're such a bastard, even as a ghost you still have such a pesky hand, you have to mess with people, no wonder no one comes to worship you during festivals, you deserve to have no clothes to wear and no incense to burn!"
The ghost that was being beaten was a male ghost with a stingy and lewd appearance. While Ye Dongfeng was hitting him, he kept yelling, "I didn't! I just wanted to tease her! I really didn't!"
Upon hearing the male ghost's denial, the one hiding behind him kicked his butt: "You dare to argue? We all saw it! Your hand was under her skirt!"
Upon seeing Ye Dongfeng and Yinni approaching, Ya Zi went up to them and asked, "What's wrong with you? What is this ghost...?"
Ye Dongfeng shoved the male ghost to the ground and kicked him, saying angrily, "We caught this ghost on the way here. We saw him touching up girls' skirts on the street."
Here's what happened: Ye Dongfeng and his group saw a girl standing by the roadside making a phone call at the intersection ahead. They guessed she was late coming back from somewhere and was asking her family to pick her up. But before the girl could finish her call, the male ghost ran out from under a tree nearby. Taking advantage of being a ghost and invisible to others, he brazenly touched under her skirt.
"Damn it, we hid far away and used magic to immobilize him. When we went to catch him, he wouldn't admit it and even cried and begged us to let him go, saying that he was pitiful because no one offered sacrifices to him. What do you think? Should we have hit him?"
Although Ye Dongfeng usually has a sharp tongue, he is actually very righteous, so when he encountered this lecherous man, he simply picked him up and beat him up along the way.
Mu Xiaoyi looked at the lewd male ghost with disgust. She said, "Tsk tsk tsk~ I said you're already dead, why can't you just wait in line to be reincarnated? Why do you have to cause trouble? See, I'll stamp your name on this. You'll be getting beaten up again when you go back to the underworld."
As she spoke, she took out a small red stamp and slapped it onto the male ghost's body, leaving a mark without caring how much the ghost regretted it.
That small red stamp is given to every employee in the management office. Its purpose is to mark ghosts who have committed crimes in the human world. When the ghosts return to the ghost realm, the ghost officials will check if the ghosts have this mark and then punish them.
