Chapter 791: The Mist 1 (Thanks to Qingse Lemon_cD for the daily reward)
After Lianyi personally took Xuanfeng back, he gave Xuanfeng a set of demon cultivation techniques, and then practiced with Xuanfeng, who had returned to his original state, for three days. Then he sent the little guy back to his personal space and let him practice on his own.
When Cyclone reaches the third level, the little guy will remember what happened in the Calamity Plane. Then, after signing a soul contract with Ripple, he will be able to follow her to other planes. However, after becoming a demon cultivator, Cyclone's strength will be suppressed. But this is all a small matter for Ripple.
After returning, Lianyi specifically asked Shijiu about the progress of the joint mission in the cultivation plane.
"I haven't received an answer yet."
"Maybe the candidate has already been chosen, but you are too embarrassed to tell me?"
Lian Yi asked suspiciously.
"You're worrying too much. Based on your mission completion rate, you shouldn't be rejected. But there was indeed a small mistake, so we've been waiting for notification."
Shijiu spread his hands and explained.
"What happened?"
Ripple asked curiously.
"Do you still remember that when you were in the vampire dimension, not only did the data transmission have problems, but it also sent you wrong data information?"
"I remember that I felt something was wrong at the time, so I didn't take the news that came later as a reference."
Lianyi certainly had an impression of it, except for the time when she returned to the Space-Time Administration and the transmission channel had problems. Shijiu temporarily sent her to another dimension to avoid disaster. That was the only time that contact was suddenly cut off.
"Last time, an unknown signal impacted the system, causing it to initiate an emergency procedure and proactively cut off contact with you. I didn't contact you until it was repaired.
This time, the mission in the cultivation world is related to that unknown data. The management bureau is handling it urgently. I heard that they have contacted the boss above, so the mission will have to wait."
Shijiu told Lianyi what he knew. It wasn't a big secret anyway.
"I understand. Don't worry. I will continue to accept the tasks according to the schedule."
"Okay, I've selected a good task for you. It's very suitable for you."
Shijiu said immediately.
Ripple smoothly entered a body. When she opened her eyes, she was standing in the cemetery. The sky was gray and it was drizzling. The whole cemetery was eerily quiet. Someone beside her stepped forward and placed a white flower in front of the tombstone, followed by another person. Everyone silently presented the white flowers in their hands.
Lianyi lowered her head and saw the white flower tightly held in her hand. She felt very uncomfortable. She knew without thinking that this was the emotion of her original body.
She raised her head again and looked at the photo on the tombstone. It showed a middle-aged man in a police uniform, with a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a righteous look. But now it had turned into a black and white photo. Written on the tombstone were his name, year of birth, and month of death.
Lianyi calculated the other person's age and found that he was only 42 years old, which was the age when she had elderly parents and young children to take care of. So when she turned around, she saw a woman with some gray hair on her temples. Her eyes were very red and swollen. A girl about 12 years old was leaning on her side. The girl's eyes were also red. It was obvious that she understood what her father's death meant.
Lianyi stayed until the end. An older man came over, patted Lianyi on the shoulder and said:
"Lian Yi, go say goodbye to your master. You are his only disciple."
"good."
Lianyi spoke, but her voice was a little hoarse.
She was the last one to walk over. She placed the white flowers in front of the tombstone, then bowed three times respectfully. Then she turned to the family members and said with difficulty:
"Sister-in-law, please accept my condolences!"
"Um!"
The woman choked and nodded, trying hard to hold back her tears, while the little girl looked up, looked into Lianyi's eyes, and said seriously:
"Uncle Lian, you must catch the bad guy who harmed Dad!"
"I will, I promise."
Lian Yi promised solemnly.
Then she raised her hand and touched the little girl's head, saluted the woman, and turned to leave. However, she did not go far. She went to the corridor in the distance to avoid the rain for a while. After the woman and the child left and the rain stopped, she slowly walked to the tombstone again and began to receive the memories of her original body.
Lianyi's mission target this time is a criminal policeman named Lian Yi, who joined the city's criminal police team after graduating from the police academy. The criminal policeman who led him was the deceased old criminal policeman Guo Chengan, who was also the captain of the team.
Guo Cheng'an is very optimistic about Lian Yi. He has been training the original body for three years. The original body is willing to work hard and has made rapid progress. He has learned the true skills from his master. Also, because he graduated from a genuine police academy and has a flexible mind, he has combined the detective methods of the old and new criminal police, so he is considered a key training target for the criminal police team.
This time, Captain Guo got into trouble while investigating a dismemberment case. Just when he had made some progress in the case, he was killed. The murderer was so cruel that he didn't even leave Guo Cheng'an a complete body. It took the criminal police team half a month of sleepless nights to find his body after following the clues, which allowed the original master to be buried.
This was clearly a provocation from the criminals, and they succeeded. The original body was young and energetic, and wanted only to avenge his master, so he and his teammates in the Criminal Police Team started a private investigation, but the more they investigated, the more frightened they became.
Because this was not an ordinary dismemberment case, but a serial homicide case. The murderer committed the crimes over a long period of ten years. After the original person discovered this clue, he took his colleagues from the criminal police team to find the place where the murderer dumped the body, and some old cases surfaced.
It was also because of Lian Yi's unremitting efforts that he caught the other party's tail. Unfortunately, the original body was still too young. When he was tracking the suspect, he was directly cut in the throat by the other party, and the other party even snatched his gun.
The original body never saw the murderer's face clearly until his death. This was his biggest regret. Not only did he fail to avenge his master and sacrifice himself, but he also let the murderer go unpunished. He didn't know how many people would be killed in the future.
Because the original body was less than 30 years old when he died, his memory was also very short. Lianyi only took a moment to sort it out, and then contacted Shijiu:
"What is the original body's wish?"
"His wish is simple. First, to catch the murderer who killed his master. Second, to help take care of his master's family within his ability. Third, to become an excellent criminal police officer and defend the interests of ordinary people."
Shijiu said.
"I understand, but you should tell the other party in advance. After I find the murderer, it would be better for him to make the third wish himself."
"Understood. I will communicate with him and let him know the progress on your side."
"After the original body was sacrificed, was the murderer caught?"
Lianyi still asked a question.
"He was caught. It was Guo Jianan, the daughter of Guo Chengan. This girl could remember everything when her father died. Less than two years later, the original father also died while investigating this case. It was a big blow to the little girl.
She took the original body's sacrifice upon herself, and studied very hard, and was admitted to Kyoto Public Security University. After graduation, she returned to F City and began to investigate the cases handled by her father and the original body. "
