Qiqi completely understood Madam Ji's feelings and knew that she was doing it for her own good, so she nestled quietly in her arms without saying a word.
She couldn't ignore her mother's feelings just to help them solve the case.
Moreover, if the police rely too much on metaphysics, they may lose their original initiative and keenness.
This is not a good thing!
Rejected, Liao Gang hurriedly explained, "But this is a matter of great importance. If we can't stop the murderer in time, there could be another victim at any moment. Can you bear to see an innocent person die in vain?!"
As soon as Liao Gang said this, Madam Ji's expression changed.
The usually gentle and mild-mannered man's expression suddenly turned cold. "Officer, are you trying to morally blackmail me?"
Liao Gang was taken aback, realizing that his words had indeed been a bit harsh, and quickly apologized.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean that..."
"Whether you mean it that way or not, my daughter is only three years old." Mrs. Ji's face remained cold. "Perhaps she does have some extraordinary talents, but you are police officers. Solving cases and catching the real culprit is your duty. Why should a three-year-old girl take your place?!"
Liao Gang was speechless after hearing her words!
Feeling Mrs. Ji's chest heaving, Qiqi couldn't help but wrap her arms around her neck with worry and rub her cheek against hers. "Mommy, don't be angry. The policeman didn't mean it that way. He just wanted to catch the bad guy as soon as possible."
The little girl's soft, tender cheeks and her coquettish manner, like a kitten, calmed Madam Ji's anger considerably.
She patted Qiqi's head and said softly, "Mommy isn't angry, Mommy just..."
"Qiqi knows!" Qiqi buried her head in Madam Ji's shoulder, her little voice soft and obedient, "Mommy is afraid that if Qiqi gets involved too much, it will be dangerous."
A case that, despite current investigative techniques and methods, still leaves the police at a loss, is obviously not simple.
It's understandable that her mother would worry about her.
Although she actually had the ability to protect herself!
However, if her mother is worried, then she won't go.
Madam Ji held the little girl tightly in her arms, so tightly that she wished she could embed her into her own body.
How could she not know that her youngest daughter was exceptionally capable and would inevitably face all sorts of dangers sooner or later?
But as a mother, she was really worried.
Qi Bao is so young, why should she take such a big risk to do those things?
She's clearly not the only one in the world who knows these things.
"Okay, Mom. Qiqi won't go!" Sensing that Mrs. Ji was still a little upset, Qiqi patted her shoulder reassuringly, then turned to look at Liao Gang, "I'm sorry, Officer, I can't help you. I can't let Mom worry about me!"
Liao Gang's shoulders slumped.
Rationally, I still want to say something more and try to persuade them further.
However, emotionally, he could understand the little girl's mother's feelings.
If it were his daughter, and someone asked her to risk her life to help the police solve a case, he definitely wouldn't be willing to do it.
"It's alright, it was my presumption in the first place." Liao Gang sighed inwardly.
I just hope they can find a breakthrough quickly and capture the person before the other side makes a move.
"but……"
Liao Gang had already prepared to spend the next two nights at the police station reviewing the case again to see if he could find any new clues, when he suddenly heard the young girl speak again.
He subconsciously looked at Qiqi and saw her pointing at the old Taoist priest who was squatting to the side, drawing circles and looking dejected and broken. "Although I can't help you, he might be able to."
Noticing two burning gazes fixed on him, Qingyi slowly raised his head.
Seeing the little girl pointing at him, he hesitated for a moment, then pointed back at himself, "How can I help?"
Qiqi's little face was serious, and she said in a very serious tone, "Although your divination skills are a bit poor, you can still do simple deductions. With the addition of my lucky charm, you will definitely be able to deduce the location where the murderer is hiding."
As she spoke, she took out a talisman from her small crossbody bag.
The moment Qing saw the talisman, he jumped up from the ground and snatched it from the little girl's hand.
"A Heavenly Grade talisman! Hahahaha... I never expected it! In my lifetime, I will actually see a legendary Heavenly Grade talisman!"
The old Taoist priest, who already seemed eccentric, waved his hands and feet wildly while holding the talisman, his facial features contorted with laughter, making him appear even more insane.
He suddenly realized something, and his gaze fell on Qiqi's face. "Little girl, you just said that you drew this talisman?"
"Otherwise what?" Qiqi raised her chin arrogantly. "It's just a Heavenly Grade Talisman, is it really worth getting this excited?"
Qingyi's expression froze on his face, and his expression gradually collapsed. He couldn't tell whether it was more shocking that the fact that this Heavenly Grade Talisman was actually drawn by the three-year-old girl in front of him, or that it was more shocking that the girl's arrogant tone of "it's just a Heavenly Grade Talisman" was more shocking.
"Do you think a Heavenly Grade Talisman is some common, cheap cabbage? Do you even know..."
Qiqi swiftly pulled a stack of talismans from her bag, clapping them loudly in her palm like a nouveau riche holding a wad of cash.
Qingyi: ...
Trying hard to maintain her facial expression!
But there's no way to do it!
grass!
Heavenly Grade Talisman!
They're all top-grade talismans!
And it was a thick stack of them!
Even from such a distance, the spiritual energy contained in the talisman made his pores open up, making him feel extremely comfortable.
I can't even imagine what earth-shattering effects would be if all those talismans were unleashed!
Thump!
Qingyi immediately knelt down.
"Master, please accept my bow!"
Both Madam Ji and Liao Gang were startled.
Even Qiqi's expression froze, and after a moment of stunned silence, her expression became indescribable.
Some people who were far away had no idea what was going on. They just saw an old man in his seventies or eighties kneeling down in front of a three-year-old girl and shouting for her to take him as her apprentice!
The world has finally turned into something they can no longer understand.
"Oh dear, Grandpa, please get up! You'll shorten my lifespan if you keep doing this!" Qiqi hurriedly spoke up when she saw that he was about to kowtow.
Qingyi realized what was happening, but didn't get up. She didn't kowtow, but simply clasped her hands together and said, "Master, if you don't accept me, I will kneel here forever!"
Qiqi: ……
"Then kneel down!" She hated being morally blackmailed. The police officer kidnapped her because of a life-threatening situation. For him to do this for the sake of learning his skills was too despicable and shameful. "Mom, let's go!"
Madam Ji nodded, picked her up, and turned to leave.
Seeing that they were really leaving, Qingyi quickly got up from the ground, "Oh, Master, don't go! I won't kneel anymore, okay?!"
