Chapter 313: Chapter 313 Hush, Quiet_1

While you were talking, five young punks with dyed hair suddenly emerged from a nearby alley. They hadn’t seen you and quickly surrounded the old lady’s electric tricycle.

"Old woman, get down!"

One of the punks tapped the tricycle with the iron rod he was holding.

"These scumbags!"

Xian Qianling despised evil, her expression changed instantly, and she lifted her leg ready to rush forward, but you reached out, grabbed her arm, and shook your head slightly with a smile, saying, "Just watch quietly."

Knowing your temperament well, Xian Qianling also stopped and frowned as she looked towards the other side of the bridge.

"Ah, how strange, why can’t the DV capture the old lady?" Zhang Zhaoyuan exclaimed in surprise.

You patted his shoulder, still smiling, and said, "A camera is just an inanimate object, if you really want to capture a glorious youth, you should use your eyes to see the truth."

With that, you smeared something on both Zhang Zhaoyuan’s and Qi Gaojie’s eyes.

"Eh? I can see much clearer than before, Chairman Li is truly amazing!"

"Shush, be quiet."

Since learning that every member of the supernatural detective society could see ghosts through the special eyewash you created, Xian Qianling had also gotten some from Xiao Feng and had already used it beforehand, so now she could naturally spot something was amiss.

When you turned to look, you saw one of the punks rifling through the old lady’s moneybox.

"Old woman, you only sold this little in a whole night?"

The punk shook the box, which contained a handful of loose bills and coins.

The old lady’s expression didn’t change as she replied with a faint smile, "I’ve just started out for the day, and you guys are the first customers tonight. Look, I don’t have much money on me, but I do have wontons and dumplings. How about I serve you some?"

Forgetting himself, one punk responded, "Now that you mention it, I haven’t had dinner yet tonight. Come on, make us brothers each a bowl of dumplings, and be generous with the meat filling. If it’s skimpy, I’ll smash your stall."

The punk who held the moneybox dumped the contents into his pocket, cursing, and then threw it to the side of the road.

"Huh? The moneybox has disappeared."

Zhang Zhaoyuan rubbed his eyes; he noticed that the box, thrown to the ground by the punks, had suddenly vanished.

"It’s true." Qi Gaojie had been continuously watching the box on the ground, and in his vision, it slowly disappeared.

"Alright, stop making a commotion, be careful not to alert those five punks and ruin this spectacle," Xian Qianling had realized that the old lady selling dumplings wasn’t an ordinary person, or more precisely, she wasn’t human at all.

Glancing at Xian Qianling, you smiled and said, "Don’t worry, they can’t hear us anymore."

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

You pointed at the old lady’s electric tricycle, "Around the old lady’s tricycle, an automatic barrier roughly ten meters across forms, isolating anyone inside completely from the outside world."

Xian Qianling looked at you and asked, "Who is this old lady, anyway? She’s not your grandmother, is she?"

You didn’t expect such a question from Xian Qianling and immediately asked, "How did you know my grandmother is still alive?"

"Little Yun told me. She said apart from your mother, you also have a grandmother, but she has never seen her either."

Thinking about my grandmother, a warm smile couldn’t help but appear on my face, "My grandma lives in a remote countryside. Speaking of which, I haven’t seen her in almost half a year. The New Year’s holiday is coming up; it’s the perfect time to visit her."

Hearing this, Xian Qianling said without hesitation, "I’m going too."

"Why are you going? Besides, aren’t you the captain of the criminal police team, always swamped with official duties? Where do you find the leisure time for sightseeing?"

"What sightseeing? That’s paying respect to an elder."

I pursed my lips, "Let’s not mention that my grandma doesn’t even know you exist. The environment she lives in is something you city folks would never get used to."

"Are you underestimating me?" Xian Qianling’s pen tip lifted slightly as her eyes glared.

Smart men wouldn’t make things uncomfortable for themselves at times like these, so I hastily said, "Alright, alright, since you really want to go, I’ll have Madman call you when the time comes."

"Xiao Feng’s going too?"

"Of course, Madman owes his life to my grandma. He visits her more often than I do."

As we were talking, Qi Gaojie suddenly cried out in alarm, his voice trembling as he pointed ahead, "That, that, that, that, what is that!?"

Turning my head to look, I saw that five hooligans had already eagerly devoured the dumplings cooked by the old lady. Just as the hooligans were clamoring for a second bowl, the ground behind them began to change, and soon after, five monsters with mouths full of sharp teeth and hands clenching saw-toothed Wolftooth Sticks slowly emerged from the ground!

"Wow!"

Zhang Zhaoyuan and Qi Gaojie both yelled at the same time, exchanged a look, and turned to run away.

Seeing they were about to flee, I said with a smile, "Weren’t you two talking about recording your youth? This is actually youth. You should record everything you see and hear, then weave it into a handbook of youth. That ought to be the best tribute to your youth, right?"

My seemingly simple words were like a needle, piercing straight into their hearts.

Zhang Zhaoyuan and Qi Gaojie, who were turning to leave, looked at each other, sparks in their eyes, and nodded to each other seriously.

"That’s right, Chairman Li is absolutely right!"

"Instead of filming those lifeless images daily, it’s better to capture the darkness lurking beneath the surface of human nature!"

Zhang Zhaoyuan then picked up the DV again, though still unable to capture any images.

Seeing this, I took out a Cinnabar Talisman from my pocket and placed it directly in front of the DV camera lens.

"Hey, if you block it like this, I can’t see anything... Huh? I can actually film now, this is amazing!"

I smiled.

Seeing this, Xian Qianling couldn’t help but ask, "Aren’t you afraid they’ll post the footage they shoot online?"

Raising an eyebrow, I said to Xian Qianling, "If it were you, would you believe these images if you saw them on the internet?"

After a brief pause, Xian Qianling shook her head, "No, I wouldn’t believe it. But I am curious, you’ve always been someone who doesn’t like to do extra work, why would you help them?"

Hearing Xian Qianling’s question, Zhang Zhaoyuan and Qi Gaojie also turned to look at me, as they wanted to know the answer too.

I laughed and said, "Because, just like them, I’m also an idiot!"
