"Don't ask anymore, just let them in!"
"Yes!" Gu Yan walked away with a look of sorrow on her face.
"Miss Yan, do you think it's possible that Xuanmen Zhong Ren did this?"
"It shouldn't be. Taoism emphasizes cause and effect. Even if it's an evil spirit, they can handle it themselves. However, whether they exorcise or eliminate the spirit, they need talismans and certain magical tools. Using those would leave traces behind."
"The Seventh Division Team Three is now taking over the crime scene. You can leave," a woman's voice came from outside.
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhuo frowned slightly. The tone and attitude were concerning; were they being too high-profile? Didn't they say their operations were confidential?
Just as he was pondering this, a woman in a blouse and pencil skirt walked in, her high heels clicking rhythmically on the floor.
Yan Kongyue didn't even give her a glance. She patted Lin Zhuo on the shoulder and left the room.
Lin Zhuo followed suit.
Lin Team! Gu Yan walked in alongside a man in a suit.
"This is our captain, Lin Zhuo!"
"Hello, I'm Xie Yunxiao, captain of the Seventh Division Team Three. I just received a call from Gu Ju and rushed over."
"The situation is like this," Lin Zhuo said without much small talk, explaining the circumstances of the scene to Xie Yunxiao, including what Yan Kongyue had mentioned.
"Alright, feel free to contact me anytime!" Xie Yunxiao said before turning to signal his team to leave.
Yan Kongyue initially thought that the captain would ask some questions, but he merely glanced at her indifferently before getting busy.
"Let's go!" Lin Zhuo sensed the other party's disdain and arrogance. Although it made him somewhat uncomfortable, he didn't show it.
"Okay!" Yan Kongyue decided not to hold it against them for now; she would deal with them when they came seeking help.
Once outside the Japanese restaurant, Lin Zhuo asked the question he had been wanting to know: "Did you save Lin Qian?"
"Lin Qian?" Yan Kongyue pursed her lips. Could it be...
"The car accident at Half-Mountain Park last night! He couldn't find anyone after midnight yesterday, so he took some time to visit the hospital. Lin Jingteng had already told Lin Zhuo about how Lin Qian was rescued and what the doctor said."
"Oh! That young man, Lin Qian! Looks like I don't need to get close anymore."
Lin Zhuo observed her discreetly; her outfit didn't quite match her name.
"I saw your silhouette in a video. Thank you for saving my brother."
"Video? You recognized me just now?"
"Well, some passersby posted videos. Do you have any others?" Lin Zhuo asked tentatively, as he still had not completed the task assigned to him by Uncle San.
"You want to take me to see Lin Qian?"
"As soon as Lin Qian woke up, she asked us to find you. Now that the case has been handed over to the Seventh Bureau, we don’t have anything else to do. If they need our cooperation later, they will call you. If you’re free, can you accompany me to the hospital?"
"Sure, let’s go. It’s about time to deal with his situation too!"
"Deal with what?"
"His car accident wasn’t an accident. We can talk more once we’re at the hospital." Yan Kongyue suddenly felt exhausted. Since she arrived in this world, she had been busy non-stop and was starting to doubt whether her retirement plan could still be carried out.
"Alright, you haven’t eaten yet, have you? Let’s grab something to eat first!" Lin Zhuo glanced at the time.
"I'm not really hungry!" Just as Yan Kongyue finished speaking, her stomach betrayed her with a loud growl.
"Hehe, let’s eat something anyway!" Yan Kongyue remembered that she hadn’t had breakfast and decided not to be shy about it.
Lin Zhuo smiled lightly and led Yan Kongyue to a five-star hotel, ordering a feast of dishes.
Yan Kongyue was overjoyed; she didn’t stop using her chopsticks, her mouth stuffed full like a little hamster. If she could eat delicious food every day, being busy would be much better than Difu!
"Pfft! No way! I must carry out my retirement plan to the end! Hmph!"
