Chapter 345: Chapter 345: You’re Not Going to Trick Me Again, Are You?_1

After the Kan Family Brothers appeared, they simply stood still, watching you gather souls with the Innate Bagua Formation. In about three minutes, there were a total of twenty spiritual bodies floating in front of you. If these twenty spiritual bodies were to take human form, this cramped room would hardly be able to accommodate so many people!

Kan Zihui cupped his hands towards you and said with a bow, "Master Li, what you’ve done here is truly a boundless act of merit."

With a casual wave of your hand, the twenty-four talisman papers instantly turned into flying ash, and those twenty spiritual bodies were quickly absorbed into the Iron Chain by Kan Zihuang.

You sighed softly at Kan Zihui, saying, "This kind of merit is perhaps better left unwanted, such young lives lost just like that."

As a Ghost, Kan Zihui naturally saw through certain truths and said to you with a smile, "For these people, life and death, death and life, it’s all predestined. The lifespans of these twenty were destined to be no longer, even if that person hadn’t killed them, they would have died from something else."

"Is this what they call fate?" you asked Kan Zihui, your mouth curling up into a smile, "But I don’t believe in fate."

After the murderer was caught, the destination of the human flesh was also quickly revealed. With the cooperation of the industrial and commercial systems, three mutton restaurants were shut down.

To avoid causing panic, the authorities simply glossed over the truth with other reasons.

After all, news that human flesh was mixed into mutton and served to the public, had it come to light, would likely have cast a psychological shadow on anyone who had eaten mutton. For those with weaker tolerance, it might even lead to psychological illness.

Fortunately, few people knew about this incident, and everyone kept mute about it, not causing any trouble for themselves or their workplace.

After the homicidal maniac was captured, the police could finally breathe a sigh of relief, but for you, trouble still existed.

Turning your head to look at Xian Qianling, who was still sitting in the passenger seat of your car, you asked gloomily, "Hey, didn’t I solve the case for you? Why are you still following me?"

Xian Qianling was still wearing your down jacket, which appeared somewhat oversized due to her physique.

Nonetheless, underneath that down jacket, her smile was still radiant and dazzling, so much so that the gradually setting sun outside couldn’t compare to her brilliance: "You did a great favor for the people of Yuhang City, and as the captain of the criminal police brigade, I was recommended to reward you."

"Reward?" your eyes swiveled, and you suddenly raised your eyebrows, giving Xian Qianling a suggestive look, "Hehehe, if you really want to reward me, why don’t we find a hotel now and have a good talk about life and dreams in bed?"

Unexpectedly, this crazy woman directly answered, "Sure!"

As she spoke, she even slowly unzipped the down jacket, giving you a provocative wink.

Tch, boring.

In reality, what you wanted to see was Xian Qianling begging for mercy in a dramatic display.

Pouting, you said to Xian Qianling, "So where are you off to now? I was about to head back to school."

"Didn’t I promise you before? If you helped me solve the case, I’d take you to see an elder who has collected quite a few treasures."

You looked at Xian Qianling and asked, "You’re not going to trick me again this time, are you?"

"What do you think?"

Xian Qianling cast another flirty wink at you.

If it were someone else, they might fawn over you like a sycophantic dog, wagging their tail and pouncing on you. But you were always on guard against this crazy woman, never knowing when she might spring an "unexpected surprise" on you.

Under Xian Qianling’s guidance, you parked the car at a parking lot named "Folk Art Collection Exhibition Hall."

"This exhibition hall is privately funded, and it’s open to everyone for free," Xian Qianling got out of the car and, seeing you dressed thinly, couldn’t help but ask, "Aren’t you cold?"

"Please, this is already the seventeenth time you’ve asked me, I don’t want to answer anymore."

Xian Qianling came over, patted your shoulder, and with raised eyebrows said, "Not bad, kiddo, you’re quite sturdy."

You hurriedly took a few steps forward, putting a bit of distance between yourself and the crazy woman.

On the drive over, Xian Qianling had already called the museum director. Although he wasn’t in, he had instructed the staff to receive you both.

Upon entering the exhibition hall, a young lady with clear eyes and graceful features greeted you with a smile, "Hello, both of you. I am Narrator Xiao Zhao. The director has informed me; please follow me."

Indeed, the collections in this private exhibition were quite interesting, not only varied in category but also mostly unique items, some of which were not found in public museums.

After following the narrator for a tour, you noticed that every item was tagged with a price. Anyone interested could buy the items, which probably explained why the visit was free.

Among the many exhibits, books were the most inconspicuous and the most easily overlooked. According to the narrator, you could borrow these books, but you had to return them within a specified time and without any damage or markings.

For you, browsing through a book would only take ten to twenty minutes, so you could return them the next day. You picked out twelve books, a miscellaneous selection, some of which were about spirit monster stories, and one even on ancient tomb architecture—these were books not typically seen elsewhere.

Now that you had the books, it was time to happily head back to the university with them tucked under your arm.

As you walked, you suddenly stopped and turned to look at a glass case beside you.

In the glass case was a red cheongsam, whose craftsmanship appeared very exquisite, priced at three thousand two hundred yuan.

"What’s wrong?" Xian Qianling turned to look at the cheongsam and immediately said with a smile, "What, do you like cheongsams?"

This red cheongsam was not ordinary; it clearly had strands of Yin Ghost Qi weaving around it. However, the aura was not dense, nor did it hold any malice. Without much thought, you simply took an extra look and then left.

Watching you walk away, Xian Qianling whispered something to the narrator beside her, who smiled and nodded in reply, whispering back, "Miss Xian, your taste is really good, you would look super good in this dress. By then, Mr. Li will be ecstatic."

Rarely, Xian Qianling did not cling to you afterwards. After you dropped her off at the apartment complex, she strolled in by herself.

Her light steps revealed that she was in a very good mood.

You didn’t give it much thought, now having books in hand, of course, it was time to find a quiet place to read!

The study room, an essential classroom for all universities, was also a place many students never set foot in.

However, for students who loved reading, the study room was an indispensable part of college life.

After eating some random stuff in the cafeteria, you entered a study room with the books in hand and started reading.
