Chapter 173 Rahu's Reincarnation
"Such a brutal case happened in our jurisdiction, don't you feel ashamed?"

"Gao Bao! I asked you to find out the victim's information. It's been two days. Where is your investigation report? Ah!"

Gao Bao stood up awkwardly, looked at his blushing Liu Hai, and stammered, "Mr. Liu, it's not that I'm not serious, I just really can't find any clues."

"We haven't even found a complete body yet. All we have is a head with skin scraped off and a torso. We can't even find any witnesses nearby."

"Mr. Liu, look at my eyes." Gao Bao pulled his eyelids: "I haven't slept for two days. I have been visiting people all the time."

"If the commander thinks I'm not capable, please come and investigate it yourself!"

Liu Hai's face was shaking with anger, and he pointed at Gao Bao. Kuang Tianyou immediately stood up, supported Liu Hai, and pressed down Liu Hai's hand that was pointing at Gao Bao: "Sir Liu, Gao Bao has been up for two nights. He wants to find the murderer more than anyone else. Give us a few more days, and we will definitely find clues."

Liu Hai glared at Gao Bao fiercely, and followed the step handed over by Kuang Tianyou and said, "You know how serious the situation is now. I was scolded by the big sir for the whole morning, and the higher-ups have already issued a death order."

"Give us another three days. If we still can't catch the murderer, I will be the one guarding the pond next year. Think about what you will do next!"

After taking a deep breath, Liu Hai arranged the next task:
"Gao Bao, you just stay in the office. The two of you and Tianyou will go with me to the scene to take another look."

Kuang Tianyou gestured to Gao Bao to take a break and followed Liu Hai out of the police station.

After getting in Liu Hai's car, Tianyou began to give an overall report of the situation: "The body parts were found in the trash can two days ago. The torso and head have been found in the past two days. They have all been sent to the forensic doctor for examination."

Liu Hai nodded, drove away from the police station, turned the corner and glanced at the convenience store opposite, stretched his hand out of the window and waved, asking the team members behind him to drive away first.

"Wait for me, I'm going to buy a pack of cigarettes." Liu Hai said to Kuang Tianyou and got out of the car.

Kuang Tianyou glanced around casually, but out of the corner of his eye he saw the familiar figure of Zheng Wenjie in the convenience store. His eyes suddenly froze, then returned to normal.

Thinking about what he had just seen, and Zheng Wenjie who followed Liu Hai into the convenience store, Kuang Tianyou thought for a moment, took out his cell phone and called Ma Xiaoling.

"I'm Kuang Tianyou. I just saw Zheng Wenjie. He went into Zhao Wenru's convenience store. How are your preparations going?"

Ma Xiaoling, who was on the other side of the conversation, couldn't help but ask, "Why would he go to Zhao Wenru?"

"I don't know. I didn't use my supernatural powers to see, otherwise he would have noticed it."

"Okay, that's it, don't go and watch. I'll contact Uncle Qiu right away and have him contact Zhao Wenru."

"Also, when can you spare some time to go to Japan with me to get the Thirteen Notes? It's only a month and a half away from July 14th."

"It's not possible these few days. A murder case has occurred. I will contact you in two days. Now let's confirm whether what Zhao Wenru said about Zheng Wenjie burying the moon is true!"

"You still don't believe it?"

Kuang Tianyou saw that Liu Hai had come out, so he replied, "I don't know," and hung up the phone.

Ma Xiaoling listened to the busy tone on the phone, stood there thinking for a while, then went back to the computer to check the time, and called a classmate in the United States via video software.

"Xiaoling, you are very punctual."

"Jack, did you find any clues with the information I asked you to look up yesterday?"

Ma Xiaoling also told Zhao Wenru that Zheng Wenjie would use the moon-burying ceremony on the night of July 14 to merge the human world and the underworld into one.

Although she didn't know Zheng Wenjie yet, what she saw and heard made her unable to understand why Zheng Wenjie did this.

Zhao Wenru suddenly appeared a day ago and told them the news, and then suddenly disappeared.

If Uncle Qiu had not been able to prove that Zhao Wenru was the ferryman of the underworld, she and Kuang Tianyou would not have had any faith in these words.

"I have a clue. I looked up a lot of information and found that the moon burial ceremony you mentioned is very similar to a mural left by the ancient Egyptians in ancient times."

"I specifically asked a professor to translate it. The content of the mural is very simple. It is about five warriors and an evil man who died together and stopped him from destroying the world."

Ma Xiaoling took a deep breath and murmured, "Is this really the case?"

Jack nodded. "There is also a prophecy under this mural. To put it simply, these six people will continue to be entangled for generations until the world is destroyed."

"Xiaoling, why are you interested in this kind of thing? The professor said that this is just a story that people in ancient times made up or made up about phenomena they didn't understand."

"Could it be that in addition to the ancient Egyptians, you also have similar records?"

"Thank you. I'll treat you to dinner when I have the chance when I go to the United States!" Ma Xiaoling said after coming to her senses, then immediately stood up, picked up the car keys and left home.

He rushed to He Youqiu's game hall without stopping and told him the news he had received.

He Youqiu calmly arranged the brown paper on the table, then took off his reading glasses and looked up at Ma Xiaoling, saying seriously: "I have checked what you said, and it is almost certain. What Zhao Wenru said is true!"

"This is an ancient book I found. It records that in ancient times, five warriors turned the tide and stopped Luohou's moon burial ceremony, but at the same time they all disappeared."

"The records say that these five warriors were sent by gods and Buddhas to save the human world, and after their mission was accomplished, they returned to the fairyland."

"If according to the news you got from abroad, they died together with Luohou, and they have been entangled for generations, then what Zhao Wenru said is right!"

"Zheng Wenjie is the reincarnation of Luohou!"

Ma Xiaoling looked at He Youqiu with hesitation and gritted her teeth: "Since Zhao Wenru is the ferryman, why doesn't he go directly to Hades? Is it useful to come to us! I am sure that if he really runs into Zheng Wenjie again this time, he will definitely kill us!"

He Youqiu shook his head, sighed and asked, "You also know what the consequences will be if Zheng Wenjie succeeds. In the end, you will die. Why don't you give it a try?"

Looking at Ma Xiaoling, He Youqiu felt a pain in his heart. Ma Xiaoling was not afraid that Zheng Wenjie would kill her. Ma Xiaoling also grew up under his care. How could he not understand Ma Xiaoling's temperament.

"You don't want to deal with Zheng Wenjie? Is it because he helped you expose Miao Shan's scam? But this time is different. If it's true, the world will be full of ghosts."

"There will no longer be a distinction between the underworld and the living world, and the human world will slowly wither like a plucked flower."

He Youqiu picked up the glasses on the table and wiped them while saying, "As for why Zhao Wenru came to tell us this matter, and why he didn't tell us the details, I can understand."

He Youqiu put on his glasses, folded the parchment on the table, and put it away before sitting face to face with Ma Xiaoling: "The underworld cannot interfere with the human world. This is the rule of Hades. Only after death do souls belong to the underworld." "If the underworld interferes with the human world, they will be severely punished by Hades! Don't think Zheng Wenjie is a common phenomenon in the underworld."

"He is different from the rest of the underworld. The ferrymen of the underworld hold a meeting every year to report on the situation in various places over the past year. I have asked several old ghosts who have not yet reincarnated in the underworld, as well as the elders of the sect, and they all know nothing about Zheng Wenjie!"

"This shows that Zheng Wenjie did not follow Hades' rules at all. He did not even go to the meeting, and Hades did not punish him. This shows how unique Zheng Wenjie is in the underworld."

Ma Xiaoling couldn't help but hum, "So Zhao Wenru came to tell us about this because he was worried about the human world?"

He Youqiu nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, Zhao Wenru should be very clear about the grudge between us and Zheng Wenjie, and he has placed his hopes on us."

"That's why I went against Hades' rules and told us this."

"Kuang Tianyou also has doubts about this matter..., Uncle Qiu, let's just leave it at that for now! I'll go back and think about it carefully." After saying this, Ma Xiaoling turned and left.

Walking alone on the street, watching people coming and going around me, and thinking about the several contacts with Zheng Wenjie, my hesitant heart gradually became firm.

...

Zheng Wenjie still didn't know how Zhao Wenru, whose soul was destroyed by him, could find Ma Xiaoling and others.

At the moment, he was having a headache watching Liang Jiamin buzzing around like a hardworking bee.

"Shut up!"

Zheng Wenjie rubbed his temple with his palm and couldn't help shouting, "Have you always been so familiar with me? This is only the third time we've met, including today! How come you act like you've known me for years?"

"Boss, what are you talking about? You are my boss. My dad always said that you should treat the company as your home."

Liang Jiamin smiled and bent down, placing the teacup in front of Zheng Wenjie with both hands: "At home, my dad is my dad, but at the company, the boss is my dad."

"Look! This is the good tea I bought with one month's salary. I heard it was shipped from the mainland. It's very expensive. Only seven ounces cost me more than two thousand dollars."

"There's more, there's more." Liang Jiamin took out a piece of sealed paper from the opened gift box and placed it on Zheng Wenjie's desk: "Boss, this teacup is a cultural relic. This is the appraisal report from the auction house, saying that it was used by the Murong family of Yan State. It can be considered as having royal aura."

"I bought it right away! For 8,700 dollars! Why did I buy it without even lowering the price when I heard it was tainted with pornography?"

"Because this is what I'm going to give to you, my boss! I don't know anything about Feng Shui, but when I went to the fortune teller to tell my fortune, every time I talked about money, he would say that it might not work. If he talked about things, the person's heart was not sincere!"

Zheng Wenjie let out a breath and looked at the teacup in front of him that was still steaming. The green tea leaves sank to the white porcelain bottom, and the tea was slightly green.

Although Zheng Wenjie didn't know much about tea or teaware, Gong Ruomei often made tea at home to cultivate her body and mind, and Zheng Wenjie often followed her to taste the tea.

This tea is obviously a common commodity on the street. This teacup looks normal, but to say that it was handed down from the period of the Five Barbarians and Sixteen Kingdoms is nonsense.

Reaching out to push the teacup back, Zheng Wenjie looked at Liang Jiamin: "Tell me first, when did you put a chair here, and."

Zheng Wenjie pointed at the camp beds placed directly between the two bookshelves and said, "What's the matter with this bed? I haven't been here for two days and you've been staying here for two days, right? Who agreed that you could stay here overnight?"

"No." Zheng Wenjie tapped the dark wood table with his fingers, making a twanging sound. "Who agreed to let you in here?"

Liang Jiamin smiled brightly in return, and Gu Zuoyan continued, "Boss, please don't refuse to drink. This is all from my heart."

"For this tea! For the tea set that goes well with this tea, I searched a whole street to buy this teacup."

Liang Jiamin wanted to say a few more words when she saw the teacup on the table suddenly catch fire and turn into a small pool of ash visibly.

Liang Jiamin was a little dumbfounded. She swallowed her saliva and looked at the expressionless Zheng Wenjie. She laughed dryly, "Hahaha... Boss, your unique skill... is amazing!"

Seeing Zheng Wenjie still showing no expression after laughing dryly, Liang Jiamin could only raise her hands and said in surrender: "I was wrong, boss. I was too nervous when I saw you suddenly come here today."

Zheng Wenjie then hummed, crossed his hands and asked, "Tell me, what happened? You don't even dare to go home?"

"The boss is wise!"

Liang Jiamin pursed her lips and said bitterly, "My family and Fang Dawei's family are neighbors. That day, my boyfriend and I had an appointment to go to St. Mary's University to attend a dance together, so I went to ask him to help me cover for a few hours."

"Fang Dawei is missing now. His parents are very sad. All the neighbors know about it. His brother even said that it was because of me that Dawei disappeared. I'm afraid he is in great danger now."

"Now the neighbors say I'm a vixen. I have a boyfriend but I'm still hooking up with other people. I don't dare to go back now."

Zheng Wenjie understood: "So you are guilty. You know Fang Dawei likes you, and then you use his love for you to order him to help you."

Liang Jiamin bit her lip and nodded with difficulty: "But I told him that I don't like him, but he has always been concerned about me. If there is anything, he will take the initiative to help me before my boyfriend has said anything."

"To be honest, I did have a crush on him, and then... slowly I became more and more comfortable with his kindness to me."

"Now that he's dead, I feel really bad about it. That's why I... I don't dare go home. I'm afraid to see his family. Dawei's death can be said to be all my fault."

As Liang Jiamin spoke, sadness, discomfort, and fear all surged into her heart, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Zheng Wenjie waited quietly for her to calm down before saying, "You can live here temporarily. Your salary is the same as Youdi's. You can find a house after you get paid."

"As for the rest, you can only solve it by yourself. If you think you are wrong, then muster up the courage, apologize when you should, and ask for forgiveness when you should."

"How long can you hide here? Okay, think about it yourself."

"I understand, boss." Liang Jiamin replied in a low voice with her head down.

Zheng Wenjie stood up and felt that Liang Jiamin was still sobbing slightly. He reached out and knocked on the table. After she looked up at him, he said:

"Did you really spend more than 10,000 yuan on this tea and this cup?"

"Yes, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find you on the night of Dawei's return to the spirit world, so I decided to stay here and wait for you. But I was also a little afraid that you would chase me away, so I took out all my savings to buy you a gift."

Zheng Wenjie chuckled, and after confirming that Liang Jiamin was speaking the truth, he replied, "Half of the shelves out there are only sold for about 10,000 yuan, but you ended up exchanging it for cheap tea leaves and teacups made on a factory assembly line... You are still very naive."
