Chapter 101 He picked up all the bad habits of modern people
Lin Cheng cried so hard he was almost out of control. After a long while, he wiped the tears off his face and lifted his head.
He looked at Shen Yuepo, "Master! You told Sister Li Yao before that you could ask the Special Cases Investigation Department to get involved in the investigation. I request that you contact them to get involved in my case."
He paused, took a deep breath, his eyes filled with the last vestiges of despair and pain:
"But before that, I want to see my dad one last time, and I want to ask him why in person!"
“Okay.” Shen Yuepo nodded. “I’ll make the arrangements for the Special Investigations Department. As for meeting Lin Xun…”
"I will find a chance to let you see him."
After taking Lin Cheng and Li Yao back into the Reincarnation Ring for nurturing, Shen Yuepo took out her phone and swiped her finger across the screen.
Just as he was about to look up the phone number of Zhao Yan, the captain of the third team of the Special Case Investigation Department, the phone screen lit up first, accompanied by vibration, and the two big characters "Zhao Yan" appeared on the screen.
Shen Yuepo: "..."
This call came at just the right time.
She swiped to answer the call without any expression and put the phone to her ear.
"Hello, Master Shen!" Zhao Yan's energetic voice came from the other end of the phone. "Did I disturb your rest?"
"No, I just happened to need to talk to you." Shen Yuepo got straight to the point.
"Oh? What a coincidence, I also have two things to discuss with you." Zhao Yan spoke quickly:
"First, the reward application for the case of the blond-haired man that you helped us solve last time has been approved. The 50,000 yuan will be deposited into your account first thing tomorrow morning."
"Also, regarding the clues you provided last time about Shen Yurou killing Xiao Wanxing, although the case was eventually closed with Jiang Yubai's mutual destruction, the five thousand yuan tip fee will also be transferred to you."
After listening, Shen Yuepo raised her eyebrows almost imperceptibly and said in a steady tone, "Okay, thank you."
Before Zhao Yan could finish his second matter, Shen Yuepo cut straight to the point, "I have a case here that also requires your involvement."
"Hmm? Please speak!" Zhao Yan immediately became serious.
"The Lin family in Songshan Villa District. Their son, Lin Rui, whom they recently reunited with, is suspected of murdering his adopted son, Lin Cheng, and staging a car accident scene. Lin Xun is very likely an accomplice who helped cover up the evidence."
"I would like to request that you formally open an investigation into Lin Cheng's car accident and find out the truth," Shen Yuepo said succinctly, throwing out the key information.
"The Lin family in Songshan Villa District, Lin Cheng's car accident... I understand." Zhao Yan's voice was solemn. "I will arrange for people to access the original case files tomorrow, and at the same time send people to contact the Lin family and relevant witnesses."
“Okay, thank you,” Shen Yuepo replied.
Zhao Yan then changed the subject, "By the way, Master Shen, I have another urgent matter to discuss with you, but I'm struggling to figure out how to bring it up."
"Do you remember about two months ago, when three reckless individuals, two men and one woman, barged into the Xujing Temple while doing some kind of ghost-hunting live stream on their phones?"
Zhao Yan has already investigated Shen Yuepo's background thoroughly during this period.
Naturally, I also saw related videos.
Shen Yuepo had an excellent memory and immediately recalled the three young men and women who ignored her warnings and whose faces were full of the idea that traffic was everything.
She could even recall the silly way that blond-haired kid yelled at the camera, "Hey guys! Get some attention!"
"I remember. How so?"
"Those three of them, they really messed up again the other day!" Zhao Yan's voice carried obvious helplessness and a hint of solemnity.
"This time it's Heifeng'ao! It's that remote, pristine mountain area to the south that's been designated as a national first-class geological and paleontological heritage protection zone."
"There's supposedly an ancient sacrificial site inside, it's really eerie. The country has explicitly prohibited unauthorized entry into the core area."
"But these three guys somehow managed to sneak in, and then we've completely lost contact with them. It's been almost forty-eight hours."
Shen Yuepo frowned slightly.
She had heard of Black Wind Valley. It was a place with abnormal geomagnetism, where yin energy gathered and did not dissipate. There were indeed some inexplicable things deep inside, and it was one of the officially confirmed "high-risk paranormal areas".
Zhao Yan continued:
"The local search and rescue team and our personnel have already searched twice, but we haven't found a thing! The signal is completely blocked, and the drone goes out of control as soon as it goes in!"
"There's a lot of pressure from above, after all, it involves three lives, and the place is too special. So our team was taken over. I reckon we'll have to bring in professionals for this."
He paused, his tone suggesting negotiation:
"Master Shen, could you possibly spare a moment to make a trip? The situation is urgent, and the bureau has specially approved a reward of 300,000 yuan! As long as you can find the person, it doesn't matter if they live or die!"
Three hundred thousand.
When Shen Yuepo heard the number, his eyes lit up almost imperceptibly.
But thinking of Lin Cheng and Li Yao inside the Reincarnation Ring, she said:
"Yes, but I have two ghosts to deal with and some karmic debts to settle. I can't set off until at least four days later."
Zhao Yan seemed to think for a moment on the other end of the phone, "Okay! Human life is at stake, we can't just wait around."
"I'll send a few other masters over to scout ahead and try to stabilize the situation and buy some time. Master Shen, please contact me as soon as you've finished dealing with things here."
"Okay." Shen Yuepo agreed and hung up the phone decisively.
The temptation of 300,000 is great, but Lin Cheng and Li Yao's obsessions and grievances also need to be resolved.
She put away her phone and turned her gaze to her closed bedroom door.
The living room lights were a bit too bright, so she got up and turned them off, leaving only a small nightlight in the entryway.
His gaze swept over the closed master bedroom door and then over the empty guest room next door.
She walked over and opened the guest room door.
The interior was clean and tidy, but... it was completely empty.
When I bought the things, I only thought about living in it myself, and I didn't prepare any extra blankets or pillows.
Shen Yuepo stood at the door, remained silent for two seconds, and then closed the guest room door expressionlessly.
Resigned, she turned around and turned the doorknob of her master bedroom.
The room was pitch black, with only the cold light from the phone screen illuminating the silhouette of a person reclining on the bed.
Feng Jin's tall figure occupied the left side of the bed, his back against the headboard, his two long legs casually crossed.
He held the phone firmly in his hand, the screen's light flickering and illuminating his perfectly sculpted jawline and focused profile.
Shen Yuepo couldn't help but frown.
This Emperor Fengdu, after only a short time in the mortal realm, picked up all the bad habits of modern people.
Or they spend all day and night glued to their phones.
Or are you doing this, playing on your phone in the dark with the lights off? Aren't you worried about damaging your eyes?
