Chapter 208 Picking a fight?
"It was this streamer who suggested that I call the police and then we go to find her together."
The man didn't even look at the camera. "What era are we living in? You have absolutely no awareness of fraud prevention. What if that person is just trying to scam you and get you to send money?"
This man is such an atheist! He's way too much of a materialist.
“I’m telling the truth. If I’m making a false police report, then arrest me. My fiancée is lying down right now by the water at the second traffic light in our neighborhood. It’s late at night, and I’m scared to go out alone!”
"Okay, you said it yourself. If we don't find anything, you'll keep me company on night shift tonight. It's not a safe place around here, and I'll be scared to be alone."
[Did I hear that right? Is Uncle Hat scared?]
[I wonder where this "hat uncle" is from. Have I missed watching the master's live stream?]
[That's normal. I'm new here too, only been here for two days. After all, how many people across the country and even the world have a master's live stream with just over 100,000 viewers? And her followers are less than ten million. Some popular live streams have hundreds of millions of fans.]
"Okay, I promise you."
Before long, the police car followed Xu Yun's party to its destination.
"There's water now. Shall we go across the bridge, or..."
"Go and look under the arch of this stone bridge," a sweet voice came from the phone.
Another young man sitting in the police car immediately perked up: "Is that Master Gu? It sounds like her voice."
"It's me!"
The young policeman patted his master on the shoulder. “Master, then we’re sure of it. Master Gu is an exceptionally capable person. She’s good at divination. Maybe we really can find this man’s fiancée here.”
It was dark under the bridge, and the water wasn't very deep, since it was late autumn and there wasn't much rain here.
Once you get to the middle of the river, the water isn't even knee-deep. As long as you stay steady, there's no danger.
However, the archway was too high, and after several attempts, he still couldn't reach it, so he went back ashore and called a rescue team.
They searched every single underpass, but found no human tissue.
"Not there? Is there a big willow tree near the bridge? Look under the tree."
Just when everyone thought things were going to go wrong, Xu Yun picked up a thick stick and started digging in the ground while crying.
As he dug, he realized something was wrong. Why was the soil under the tree so soft? He could dig a big hole even with his bare hands.
The police officers noticed something was wrong and came over. After digging for a while, they actually found human tissue.
The scene was chaotic, the police started making phone calls to call for reinforcements, and even the live broadcast was experiencing static due to poor signal.
What was that just now? Was I seeing things?
[Oh my god, I just saw a high-definition, uncensored video, I'm going to have insomnia.]
Gu Yunxi switched the camera feed to audio, so others could only hear the noisy footsteps, the man's cries, and calls for help.
"Now is not the time to cry. Stay calm. This is only part of it; the rest is under the bridge. It's probably stuck under something. Send some professionals to search for it."
Could it be that Master Gu couldn't find all the details of the sentence he said at the beginning of the live stream?
Xu Yun, who had almost fainted, regained consciousness. "Quickly find a boat or speedboat. My fiancée is still in the river."
The poor woman disappeared for a week, and when she reappeared before the world, she had become like this.
[The master really was right; there are pieces here and there, and I can't seem to find them all!]
[I offer three electronic bouquets of flowers, wishing her peace and happiness in her next life.]
"Wouldn't this be exciting tonight?"
Gu Yunxi hung up the phone. It wasn't actually that hard to find him. Even if they wanted to find the person who killed Xu Yun's fiancée, that was Uncle Hat's job.
Therefore, she did not want to get involved in what followed.
No, it's gone just like that?
I was really engrossed in reading it, thinking I'd ask the master for help in solving the case.
"No, that's Uncle Hat's job. I trust their abilities. Let's carry one more up. They can rest whenever they're tired."
Gu Yunxi smiled sweetly, "What I mean is, you guys are tired!"
[Oh! Master, is tonight a special treat? No sleep, no rest!]
[I've got my sunflower seeds and a small stool ready, just waiting to sit back, happily munching on sunflower seeds while watching the live stream.]
No, I want to watch it from my bed. It's late at night, and the floor is a bit cool.
I think you're just scared. Didn't you ask your dog, Da Huang, to come with you?
"One does not visit the Three Treasures Hall without a reason."
Gu Yunxi had a bad feeling. This person was coming for her, and she wanted to see who was behind this trouble.
A menacing-looking man stood in front of the camera and launched into a tirade of abuse.
"You liar, how many messages have I sent you? Why aren't you replying?"
What's going on? This man doesn't look very friendly.
[How dare you act so arrogantly here, insulting our streamer? You have a death wish.]
"Sir, who are you?"
"Uncle?"
The man glanced at his clothes and appearance, then looked at the camera again. "I'm only 26 years old, twenty... six... do you understand? Where did this middle-aged man come from? I'm asking you why you won't sell me a peace charm?"
[Young man, when has Master Gu ever sold amulets? Who do you think you are, threatening her right off the bat!]
[Yes, would a master sell her amulets so easily? Besides, in addition to giving them away as a freebie last time, she also taught everyone how to draw them, so that everyone could get protection without spending money!]
I recognize this guy. His family seems to own a coal mining company; they're incredibly wealthy in that mountain city. But why is he appearing like this? Maybe he's just trying to look cool.
Mountain city?
It seems there are quite a few coal mines. Once you become a boss, the money isn't carried in sacks anymore, but in trucks.
Gu Yunxi glanced at her backend and found that no one had sent her a private message. Most importantly, he hadn't followed her at all!
Sure enough, people's anger was particularly strong at night. Were they coming here to vent their frustrations after a long day?
"I can tell from your face that you are not a good person. I am not selling my peace charm for the time being. Even if I give it away, it will be given to someone who is destined to receive it. For you, my peace charm is of no use."
"Hmph! You're quite good with words. Isn't the purpose of the Peace and Safety Blessing to protect everyone's safety? Why is your blessing useless to me?"
"You sincerely want me to do your divination? Then sit down and have a good chat."
Hearing Gu Yunxi's words, the man reluctantly sat down in the chair. "Come on, look at this face. I don't believe you can see anything in it."
