Chapter 430: Chapter 430: Two Unsolved Cases

In an instant, Si Xi’s face turned beet red.

She had never been given such a cold shoulder before.

The feeling of humiliation made her involuntarily take a step forward.

In an instant, a gust of wind hit her in the face.

Si Xi felt as if she had slammed into a wall of wind, the bone-piercing cold spreading from her forehead, stinging so much that she couldn’t even open her eyes.

From beginning to end, Dr. Yan hadn’t formed any seals nor had he uttered a word, he just gave her a cold glance.

It was then that Si Xi understood what a gap in skill meant.

Chief Cui’s strength was already considered top-notch in her eyes, but the man before her seemed unfathomably deep.

It was as if standing at the edge of a cliff, looking into an abyss so deep, she could never estimate the distance with her Eye Power.

She could only feel a deep sense of powerlessness from the bottom of her heart.

Si Xi immediately bowed with her fists in front of her and said in a low voice, "I’m sorry, I have offended my senior."

Yan Sinian leisurely took out a pair of stainless steel chopsticks, without giving Si Xi another look, and merely spat out a word.

"Scram."

Si Xi responded and turned to leave, not daring to linger any longer.

After leaving the hospital, she broke out in a cold sweat.

Many seniors with great capabilities have eccentric tempers, and some would start a fight over the smallest disagreement. She shouldn’t have let her guard down due to his appearance and age.

But every time she thought of Yan Sinian’s face, and the subtle red mole between his brows when he cast spells, Si Xi couldn’t help but purse her lips, her cheeks flushing with crimson.

But Senior Yan... was really so handsome.

Yan Sinian was completely unaware that he had attracted Taohua’s attention.

He only felt that Cui Wu seemed reliable, but the person he sent was troublesome and caused too many issues, which made him doubt whether he could fulfill those ghosts’ wishes within a week.

Yan Sinian wasn’t one to go back on his words, but if push came to shove, he would have to intervene in these matters.

Fortunately, although Si Xi seemed a bit unreliable, her efficiency in handling official business was still commendable.

When she contacted Yan Sinian again, her attitude had become very proper.

"Senior Yan, three cases have been resolved on this end."

"Which three?"

Si Xi reported them one by one.

In the twin murder case, Si Xi utilized some Xuanmen techniques.

In the end, the younger sister confessed to her crimes without hesitation and would receive her deserved punishment.

The parents, who had raised their twin daughters like gu insects, promoting one over the other, causing the children to kill each other, also cried their eyes out, probably spending the rest of their lives in remorse.

Speaking of education failing, the case of the gambler son who fabricated an accidental fire to commit insurance fraud had also been closed.

Insurance fraud, murder, arson.

All these added up, and the death penalty was certainly inescapable.

He’d likely meet his father in the Underworld very soon.

It was unknown how his vengeful father would teach his son then.

Although the case of the mute girl who was buried alive hadn’t been completely closed yet, the police had located the burial site of the body.

After technical comparison and verification of her identity, her family would also receive their deserved punishment.

But still, two cases remained unsolved.

The case of the old man starved to death still required further investigation, after all, too much time had passed.

Even the most experienced police officer couldn’t possibly clear a twenty-year-old case in a short period.

The other case was that of the headless male corpse.

This case had too few leads.

Normally, when a body is discovered, the first thing the police do is to ascertain the identity of the deceased and then investigate their social networks.

But the ghost himself had said that he was just a poor laborer, going to and from work on time every day, never provoking anyone.

He didn’t understand why disaster had struck him; he himself felt it was unjust.

It was this sense of injustice that compelled his restless soul to find the murderer.

After listening to the report, Yan Sinian pondered.

"Understood, I’ll follow up on these two cases."

On the other end of the phone, Si Xi gripped the receiver tightly, her fingers turning somewhat red from the force.

Does this mean she will be able to work on cases together with Senior Yan later on?
