After receiving the answer, Zhou Yichen sat quietly to the side, seemingly lost in thought.
After a long while, he dialed Si Jinyan's number.
"Miss Si, I am Zhou Yichen..."
Si Jinyan was quite surprised to receive a call from Zhou Yichen.
Xiao Luoan, who was standing to the side, understood what was going on as she listened to their conversation.
It seems Zhou Yichen is planning a counterattack.
He didn't want to be Lu Yi's puppet for the rest of his life; trying to negotiate with a tiger was simply too difficult.
Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your family.
"Inspector Zhou's decision is wise."
“I’ll go with you to meet that Second Master Lu.”
Si Jinyan's voice gave Zhou Yichen a sense of security, and he didn't know why he could trust a girl so much.
It was probably when he was rescued from Su Ling's clutches.
If he were ten years younger, he certainly wouldn't feel like he was an old cow eating young grass; he would definitely compete with Xiao Luoan.
He revealed everything about Lu Yi, and that accepting bribes was a minor matter.
Even more serious is that he embezzled public funds and abused his power, privately raising or lowering some safety standards to gain personal profit.
This naturally leads to many problems.
It also caused the deaths of many ordinary people for no reason.
If these wronged souls were to rise from the underworld, they would probably devour Lu Yi alive.
"My younger brother, Jiayou..."
Zhou Yichen's biggest worry is Zhou Jiayou, especially now that he has been seriously injured and hospitalized.
"Could it be that Lu Yi really dares to be so audacious?"
Si Jinyan looked up at Xiao Luoan.
The latter said, "I will have someone keep an eye on the Imperial Hospital."
"Then thank you very much, Young Master Xiao."
After receiving a word from Xiao Luoan, Zhou Yichen felt much more at ease.
Lu Yi dared not touch the Xiao family, but similarly, the Xiao family would not touch the Lu family.
No one would willingly break this strange balance.
In the western part of the city, a ghostly figure slowly appeared.
"Finally, I'm going to have my own body."
The Great Demon King bared his fangs, finally ready to leave this wretched place.
Previously, it survived by clinging to resentment, but now, having absorbed a considerable amount of yang energy and essence, it can finally get rid of that resentment.
As the black mist slowly dissipated, his face gradually transformed into that of a handsome man.
It looked deathly pale, devoid of any color.
However, he has a rather delicate and refined appearance, just like the current popular young male celebrities.
She has red lips and white teeth, a delicate appearance, and fair and translucent skin.
In the darkness, a man walks on the western outskirts of the city.
Looking at the surrounding high-rise buildings under the lamplight, I couldn't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, mixed feelings).
"The world has changed for thousands of years, and it is not like it was when I died."
He was dressed in ancient costume, giving him the appearance of a frail scholar.
But to outsiders, that was extremely strange.
In this western part of the city, dressing so ostentatiously makes one look anything but normal.
"Young man, are you here to explore too?"
Someone jogged up behind him and called out to him.
Who has the audacity to call him that?
He turned around and saw five men and women running towards him, each holding a square-shaped object.
Two women and three men, each carrying a bag, looked at him with excitement.
The one in the lead was wearing a bellyband tied with two ropes.
Wearing boxer shorts that almost reach the top of the thighs?
"So handsome!"
Another girl was quite excited when she saw his appearance.
"Hey sir, what's your name? Your outfit looks really good on you!"
The girl in the lead asked enthusiastically.
The men behind him, however, seemed unhappy and looked at him with hostility.
"My name is Qin Shuyan. May I ask your name, Miss?"
Qin Shuyan bowed respectfully, his refined and courteous demeanor greatly increasing the two girls' positive impression of him.
"My name is Chen Jiale. The five of us do horror live streams. We heard that there are ghosts here recently, so we wanted to come and explore."
Chen Jiale is strikingly beautiful; it's hard to believe she's so bold.
Qin Shuyan didn't quite understand what the live stream was saying, but he did understand that these people had come because the place was haunted.
That's really bold of them.
"My name is Feng Chengcheng. Shu Yan, are you also here to explore? And why are you dressed like this?"
Feng Chengcheng is a petite and adorable girl.
Qin Shuyan chuckled softly, "Let's just say that."
It seems I've discovered something interesting.
The human world is definitely much more fun than the underworld.
The three boys behind her snorted coldly, displeased that the two girls were being too enthusiastic towards Qin Shuyan.
"Going on an adventure alone? You're really brave. If you're so capable, go to that abandoned factory!"
"More than a hundred people died there last year, and their vengeful spirits are still lingering!"
One of the men even made a funny face, trying to scare Qin Shuyan.
"If you dare to go there, I'll truly believe you're here for an adventure."
Oh!
A provocation tactic?
Qin Shuyan couldn't help but burst into laughter.
He came from there, so what's there to be afraid of?
Since these people want to play, he'll just play along.
"What are you three doing? There are already about ten dead people here. He's in great danger all by himself."
Chen Jiale glared at the boys who were egging him on, then turned to Qin Shuyan and said:
"Brother Shuyan, don't pay attention to them, you can come with us."
Qin Shuyan smiled politely, "Okay!"
