After attending the funeral, Kui Ziyu received a call from Zhou Anping.
With the advancement of science, some practitioners of metaphysics have collaborated with government agencies in order to better and more openly survive in modern society.
Some unsolved mysteries that cannot be explained or solved by science are solved by seeking help from metaphysicians.
Correspondingly, metaphysicians will also step in when help is needed.
Some metaphysicians are exceptionally recruited into national institutions.
They are public servants of the people and a powerful tool for protecting China.
They don the robes of civil servants, holding low positions but enjoying unknown privileges.
Zhou Anping was one of them.
He was also one of Kui Ziyu's few friends who were still alive, because he was tough enough to survive.
"Kui Ziyu!" He answered the phone and rushed over.
“I’ve found out. The Xuan Tian you mentioned is from Laoshan. He was expelled from the sect more than ten years ago for misconduct.”
The speaker was a man in his fifties with a crew cut and graying temples.
His eyes were slightly narrowed, but the sharp glint in them was undeniable.
In the freezing cold of the northern city, he was only wearing a floral shirt, the print on which was stretched out of shape by his round belly.
"I'll go light incense for your mother first, then I'll take that evil Taoist priest away."
Kui Ziyu nodded and led him to the backyard of the Wang family's old house, asking seemingly casually, "Old Zhou, how is the old man?"
"He's doing great! He's eating well, sleeping well, and has even taken on a new disciple. The disciple's name is..."
Kui Ziyu interrupted, "I have already left Maoshan, you don't need to tell me about his affairs."
"Hey! Didn't you ask?" Zhou Anping looked at him with a half-smile.
Kui Ziyu's face was gloomy. After the two finished offering incense, they went to Guan Xuantian's place.
He pushed open the door and invited Zhou Anping in first, saying, "Xuantian's situation is a bit special."
Zhou Anping looked shocked and said, "You call death a special case?"
"He's not dead, he was just killed by my daughter..."
Kui Ziyu followed him inside, her gaze falling on Xuan Tian.
Xuan Tian lay on the ground, his face bruised and swollen, his eyes fixed on the ceiling, his expression deathly pale.
His Taoist robe was tattered and covered with footprints, several of which were kicks aimed at his abdomen and chest.
Zhou Anping squatted down; his current job is as a forensic doctor.
After a thorough examination, they said, "He died from a ruptured spleen and liver, and internal bleeding. Did your daughter do it?"
"Nonsense! My daughter used magic to sever the connection between his soul and body. That is, she made him into a vegetable. When did she kill him!"
"Your daughter is amazing!"
Kui Ziyu raised an eyebrow, her eyes filled with undisguised pride.
"Of course!"
Zhou Anping glanced at him and said irritably, "I wasn't praising you, look at your smugness! But who exactly did the killing?"
"Do you have surveillance cameras here?" he asked, looking around.
“There are no surveillance cameras in the countryside, but I can give it a try.” Yan Shi’an walked over with his eyes still red and swollen.
He nodded at Zhou Anping.
She wasn't diligent in her cultivation, but she was still a shaman, albeit one who had bound all her acupoints.
The only fairy she could summon was a gray fairy.
Although their magical powers are weak, the Hui family has many descendants, so gathering information shouldn't be a problem.
She stomped her foot three times in quick succession and shouted with focused concentration, "Please let Grey Eighteenth Milk possess me!"
She shuddered, and a long tail appeared behind her.
She looked at Kui Ziyu and Zhou Anping and blinked.
"What's going on, Xiaoyuzi?"
Kui Ziyu raised an eyebrow; he disliked this gray fairy at all.
Not only did he take advantage of his wife's body, but he also called her by such a disgusting name, and his eyes were full of lewd and covetous eyes.
You old pervert!
Kui Ziyu was not one to blur the lines between public and private matters. He suppressed his displeasure and pointed at Xuan Tian on the ground, saying, "Please trouble you, Eighteenth Madam, to ask how this person died."
Gray Eighteen nodded, making squeaking sounds, and soon many little mice emerged.
It made a series of "squeak squeak squeak" sounds.
A moment later, Gray Eighteen said, "The children said that these past few days, villagers have been sneaking in and punching and kicking him. Then, this man is gone."
Zhou Anping sneered, "This has provoked public outrage, hasn't it?"
He stroked his chin and frowned, saying, "The law doesn't punish everyone, so it's not easy to investigate."
"Xuan Tian committed many evil deeds; it's too good for him to die. Kui Ziyu, help summon his soul!"
Kui Ziyu nodded.
The two were originally from the same school, and the spells they knew were the same.
In an instant, a chilling wind swept through.
However, even with their combined efforts, they were unable to recall Xuan Tian's soul.
Zhou Anping frowned and said, "That shouldn't be the case. Could they have been taken away by the underworld officials?"
"Maybe," Kui Ziyu replied without giving it much thought, but she had once again put her daughter in a difficult position.
To be precise, it was Kui Kui who ruined himself.
If she hadn't put on such a good show, the villagers wouldn't have felt so guilty and angry, venting their anger on Xuan Tian.
Xuan Tian's death, however, broke Kui Kui's spell, and a wisp of his remnant soul followed her away from Wangjia Village.
This is cause and effect.
Zhou Anping closed the case by stating that Xuan Tian died unexpectedly.
"Kui Ziyu, your daughter is at Zhonghai University, right?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Kui Ziyu unconsciously raised her head.
Showing off! So damn showy!
So what if you have a child? Is that such a big deal?
That's amazing!
Zhou Anping suppressed the bitterness in his heart and said, "The branch office is short-staffed. Would your daughter be willing to serve the country?"
"If you'd like, I can make the introduction."
Upon hearing this, Yan Shi'an instinctively wanted to refuse, but then he heard Kui Ziyu say, "Let me ask."
