One of the Survival Rules of the Era of Terror:
Never be careless when you don't understand the information about an abnormality!
Because you can't guess which abnormality's rule ability might just be your counter!
Countless ghost controllers who considered themselves invincible have capsized in ditches.
Even with the Blood-Eyed Ghost, which allows for an advantage in the first move, Chu Qing never dared to be careless.
Especially when facing a completely unknown ghost.
Calling the police is a good way to gather intelligence.
Luocheng Supervision Headquarters, Criminal Investigation Department.
The young officer who received the call looked troubled: "Another report! How many have there been in the last half month!"
"What are you standing around for? Quickly tell me the situation!" the captain beside him said unhappily.
"Someone reported that at the cemetery in North Mountain, someone died before but it wasn't reported. Then the management office didn't handle it, and that same day they hired a new gatekeeper. That gatekeeper just called..."
"Why is such an ambiguous matter being transferred to our Criminal Investigation Department? Don't you know how busy we are lately?"
"Who knows..."
As the two were talking, two figures walked in from outside.
The captain looked at them:
"Officer Liu, Officer Tan, have you found any useful clues?"
Most people's attention was drawn to the female inspector whose ID tag read 'Liu Lian'.
For no other reason than that beneath her rather ill-fitting uniform, lay a formidable power. However, her face was like that of a doll not yet fully developed, and the cold expression she forced onto it did not make her unapproachable, but rather quite endearing.
"Reporting to the Captain, we went to the Shihao Villa Group today."
"Hmm?" Captain Wang frowned: "Why go there? Could the headless corpse from the old city district appear in the villa area?"
The two exchanged glances and lowered their heads. It was the female inspector, Liu Lian, who spoke again:
"Captain Wang, it's like this. There were no new victims in the old city district today, and there hasn't been any progress in interviewing families or collecting evidence.
Moreover, our senior colleagues have already covered everything, and I felt we weren't needed.
So, I heard something last night that I found rather peculiar, and I went to check it out today."
"What is it?"
"It's like this: last night, at the Second People's Hospital, the entire Lin family from the Senmu Group died..."
Looking at the mysterious Liu Lian, Captain Wang sighed.
He felt helpless. This little trouble-maker had an extraordinary background yet insisted on joining the most dangerous Criminal Investigation Department, always stirring up some baseless affairs. He truly didn't understand what the Director was thinking.
How could he not know about the death of the entire Lin family? Lin Yuancheng was a prominent figure in Luocheng.
But what was there to say about that case?
Lin Yuancheng had a mental breakdown, everyone saw it. No one entered or left at the time, according to the surveillance footage, and the way they died was not something an outsider could have done.
His wife died of acute cerebral hemorrhage, not to mention that.
The only one with a bit of a question was the eldest son of the Lin family, but many nurses and doctors had personally witnessed the eldest son of the Lin family jump off the building. It was entirely a suicide.
What did cases like these have to do with their Criminal Investigation Department?
However, thinking of this little trouble-maker's background and connections, Captain Wang could only nod: "Did you find anything?"
"We did!" Liu Lian said mysteriously:
"I discovered that after the entire Lin family of three died, the biggest beneficiary was Lin Hengtian's fiancée, a woman named An Ruoxue. According to my investigation, they only registered their marriage less than half a month ago!
In less than half a month, the entire Lin family of three died, and all their inheritance went to her, an outsider. It can be said that An Ruoxue has the greatest motive for suspicion!"
"And then?"
Captain Wang spread his hands: "Where's the evidence? Everyone has already confirmed that this was a suicide."
Liu Lian scratched her head: "We're still looking for it! And I discovered something else when I went this time!
This morning, the Lin family villa was quite lively, but An Ruoxue was not at the Lin family villa. I checked the traffic surveillance and found that she seemed to have gone to see her ex-boyfriend!
Most importantly, yesterday, when the Lin family of three died, her ex-boyfriend, Chu Qing, was also at the Second Hospital!"
Clearly, no one, including Captain Wang, paid attention to Liu Lian's so-called discovery.
The reason was simple. While Liu Lian's deductions were not wrong, the problem was that the deaths of the Lin family of three were too well-evidenced.
Inspectors cannot make judgments based on feelings. Even though An Ruoxue seemed to have a strong motive, as mentioned before, judgments require evidence!
Just then, the inspector beside her suddenly said:
"Wait, Little Durian, what did you just say the ex-boyfriend of An Ruoxue was called?"
"Chu Qing. He seems to have mysteriously gone to the North Mountain Cemetery to work as a security guard. If you ask me, this Chu Qing must still be involved with An Ruoxue..."
Before Liu Lian finished speaking, the inspector said:
"Speaking of which, the call that just came in was from that Chu Qing..."
At these words, Liu Lian immediately stood up.
Seeing her reaction, Captain Wang immediately made a decision:
"Alright, in that case, Liu Lian, you don't need to help with the headless corpse case in the old city district for now. Take Tan Yu and go to that North Mountain Cemetery to inquire."
"Okay!" ...
Even Chu Qing had to admit.
The female inspector before him was very distinctive.
Of course, this distinctiveness was not just in her figure, but in her face.
A face that bore a slight resemblance to someone in his memory.
"Are you Chu Qing?"
"Yes."
"Did you make the report?"
"Yes."
"Tell us the specifics."
"..."
"Alright, we've taken note. Do you have anything else to add?" The male inspector named Tan Yu continued to ask.
Chu Qing shook his head.
Just then, Liu Lian couldn't help but ask:
"Um, I'd like to ask, what do you think about the deaths of Lin Hengtian and his son?\
