Chapter 179 What Happened
Luo Yong, who was standing by, couldn't help but ask, "Is this really useful?"
"Of course." Zhong Nianyao nodded, then continued, "Don't think that your good deeds are useless because others don't know about them. In life, everything you do is watched by heaven. Good deeds are rewarded, and evil deeds are punished. This is not a simple statement."
"Everything we do in our lives is recorded in the Book of Merit in Yama's Hall. After death, all our merits will be judged. If we did a lot of good in this life, we will be reborn in a good place in the next, and we won't have to wait too long. On the other hand, if we commit the ten most unforgivable sins, we will be punished in the underworld. The so-called Eighteen Levels of Hell are definitely not just talk."
"That's what people often say: good things happen to good people. And that's exactly what happened to this driver!"
After hearing Zhong Nian Yao's words, everyone present was thoughtful.
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now, let's talk about the case!" Zhong Nianyao said, "The important thing now is the case. If it's not resolved quickly, I'm afraid new victims will appear soon."
"Driver, what happened that night?"
Hearing Zhong Nianyao's question, the driver shuddered, as if recalling some terrifying events. "That night, it was probably around one in the morning! On a relatively remote road, a man dressed in black and wearing a hood stopped my car."
"I was a little scared seeing the man dressed so strangely. But he came up and gave me 100 yuan and asked me to take him to Huanshan Road."
"I was a little hesitant at first. After all, it was so late and the place was so remote. Also, I heard there had been so many murders there recently, so I was a little hesitant."
So many murders have occurred on Huanshan Road that the police couldn't conceal it even if they wanted to. Furthermore, publicizing it would alert people and encourage them not to go there at night.
"Then why did you go?" Luo Yong's tone was filled with a hint of blame. "How can money be more important than life? If you hadn't been lucky this time, you might have ended up like everyone else."
"I wasn't going to take it!" The driver thought back to that time, feeling a chill in his heart. "But for some reason, after that person got in the car, I actually agreed straight away. I clearly wanted to refuse, but I couldn't help but agree."
He felt as if he was being controlled by someone. Although his mind didn't want to do that, his body couldn't help but do the opposite.
"So what happened next?" Han Xin pressed. "That person, or rather, that non-person?"
"That's really not a human, it's a ghost."
When talking about this, the driver couldn't help but tremble all over. He even stuttered when he spoke.
However, through his stumbling narration, everyone still understood what had happened.
That night, before we knew it, we arrived at the mountain road.
The driver was getting more and more scared, and he kept hoping to pass the section of the road around the mountain. However, as luck would have it, he suddenly stepped on the brakes at the most remote section of the road around the mountain.
He wanted to step on the accelerator and leave as soon as possible. But in the end, he could only watch the car stop. He didn't want to think about what happened next.
Afterwards, he saw the man in black suddenly take off his hood, and what came into view was not the face of a living person, but a face that was almost unrecognizable, with the eyes, nose, and mouth all missing. The most terrifying thing was that there was almost only the whites of the eyes, and the mouth was split towards him.
It looked like he was smiling, but also like he wasn't smiling.
In an instant, his heart was filled with terror and he wanted to scream, but no sound came out of his throat.
After that, the ghost pounced directly from the back seat.
Afterwards, he felt that the ghost began to bite and torture him. He could see wounds starting to appear on his body and blood kept flowing. Then his head was hit on the steering wheel and was directly broken.
Before he lost consciousness, he suddenly saw a flash of golden light, and then he seemed to hear the evil spirit scream, which made his ears hurt. In his daze, he also saw that the amulet in his car had turned to ashes.
He thought he was doomed this time, but unexpectedly, he woke up in the hospital.
"A ghost?" Zhong Nianyao's eyes flashed with a hint of thought, and then she turned to Han Xin and said, "I want to go and see the previous victims, is that okay?"
Although he didn't know why Zhong Nian Yao made such a request, Han Xin agreed without hesitation.
After saying goodbye to the driver, the three of them came to the Public Security Bureau.
When they saw Zhong Nian Yao, everyone in the Public Security Bureau couldn't help but stop and take a look.
Because they had never seen such a beautiful girl, even the policewomen here could not compare to the girl in front of them.
This girl is not only beautiful, but also has an aura that is even more attractive. It is obvious that she is a person raised in luxury, like an orchid in the sky, noble and inviolable.
A girl like this is totally out of place in their Public Security Bureau.
Everyone was curious about who this girl was. However, no one dared to ask her anything because she was accompanied by the Criminal Investigation Team's famously cold-faced leader, Captain Han.
Ignoring the gazes of others, Zhong Nianyao followed Han Xin and Luo Yong to the forensic doctor's office. Then they went directly to see the bodies of several victims.
Before lifting the white cloth, Han Xin warned, "Are you sure you want to see this? These people were brutally tortured before they died, and their deaths didn't look very pretty."
"I know," Zhong Nianyao shook her head. "They're already dead. What's so scary about that?"
Han Xin now remembered the other party's identity and felt that he was really crazy. He almost forgot that the other party was the person he invited to help solve this supernatural case.
Han Xin lifted the white cloth, and Zhong Nianyao began to look at the victims one by one. The more she looked, the tighter her brow furrowed. After she finished, her face was frighteningly gloomy.
