Chapter 41: Chapter 41 Alarm

Shen Siyuan took out his cell phone, ready to call the police, but quickly put it away.

Now that phone numbers require real-name registration, it’s easy to track who made the call.

Although he wasn’t the murderer, he had no way to explain to the police how he discovered the body in the unfinished building, which would only complicate matters further.

At this moment, Dou Dou and Yin Xingyue had come back and were sitting on the edge of the bed, staring eagerly at Shen Siyuan.

After some thought, he turned his gaze towards Yin Xingyue.

"Xiao Yue, it’ll have to be you who makes the trip," said Shen Siyuan.

Before Yin Xingyue could respond, Dou Dou jumped up, patting her chest eagerly and said, "I... I can help."

"You better stay here and accompany me," Shen Siyuan said rather speechlessly.

"Brother, where should I go?" Yin Xingyue asked softly.

"Go to the police station near the unfinished building, and then reveal yourself and tell them that you found a body there," Shen Siyuan instructed.

Yin Xingyue nodded at his words, then lowered her head to look at the faint blue glow on her body.

She was much stronger than Dou Dou. In just two days, she had basically controlled the Netherworld Fire within her, unlike Dou Dou, whose Netherworld Fire was still visibly seeping out of her head.

"There’s nothing to worry about, you’ve controlled it well, and at a casual glance, it’s generally unnoticeable," he reassured.

Shen Siyuan knew what she meant; the little girl was quite cautious.

"Well then, Brother, I’ll go now," said Yin Xingyue as she stood up.

"Go ahead," Shen Siyuan replied.

Upon hearing this, Yin Xingyue was about to leave on the Yin Wind when suddenly she remembered something, turned her head back, and asked, "Brother, are you still there?"

Shen Siyuan was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Of course I am."

So, Yin Xingyue then left, riding on the Yin Wind.

Due to her own experiences, Yin Xingyue was extremely introverted and rarely initiated conversations with others. It was only because Shen Siyuan was her Banner Master that she felt close to him and talked so much with him.

-----------------

Yuxiu Police Station is one of the most ordinary police stations in the West District, with nothing particularly special about it.

Every day, they handle trivial matters.

However, the area they are responsible for is relatively large; the station, including the chief, has a total of twelve people, not counting the auxiliary police.

Jiang Xiyue is just an ordinary police officer at Yuxiu Police Station, mainly responsible for traffic control and patrol duties, dealing with traffic flow, patrol tasks, and traffic accidents.

Among many female officers, this is considered a relatively tough job as most female officers are involved in administrative work, community policing, and household registration.

Jiang Xiyue chose to work in traffic control and field duty not because the station did not take care of her or ostracized her, but entirely by her own request.

She loved riding her motorcycle, the feeling of the breeze on her face, and she loved riding her motorcycle through streets and alleys. Although she was a girl, she was naturally active and simply disliked staying indoors.

The Yuxiu Police Station covers a not insignificant area, with a courtyard in front where several police and private vehicles are parked.

Jiang Xiyue rode her motorcycle into the courtyard and from a distance saw a young girl lingering at the entrance of the police station, so she rode directly towards her.

Seeing the young girl’s delicate and timid appearance, Jiang Xiyue’s voice unconsciously softened a bit.

"Little sister, is there something you need?"

Yin Xingyue, seeing a female officer, felt much more at ease.

She blurted out: "Police Uncle..."

"I’m not an uncle, I’m a sister, take your time," she corrected.

Jiang Xiyue turned off her motorcycle but did not dismount, instead sitting astride it as she took off her helmet, revealing her short, ear-length hair, looking very spirited.

Jiang Xiyue didn’t invite Yin Xingyue inside to talk slowly, because she noticed that when the young girl spoke to her, she avoided making eye contact, her shoulders were hunched, and her body unconsciously leaned towards the outside of the courtyard...

These are all signs of timidity and caution, so she was afraid that some of her actions would put psychological pressure on the little girl.

From this, it can be seen that she took a great deal of courage to take the initiative to find Shen Siyuan.

"That... in that unfinished building, in the middle one that is semi-circular, on the fifth floor, there is a dead person, a woman died there, was... was murdered there..." Yin Xingyue was somewhat stammering at first, but her words flowed more smoothly as she continued.

"What?"

Jiang Xiyue thought she had heard wrong and showed a shocked expression.

Seeing this, Yin Xingyue subconsciously stepped back a few steps.

Jiang Xiyue quickly said, "Is what you said all true?"

Yin Xingyue nodded and then pointed in a direction outside the courtyard.

"It’s over there, you... you can go see for yourself." After saying that, she walked toward the outside of the courtyard.

"Wait, wait a moment."

Jiang Xiyue hurriedly tried to stop her, but the other party ignored her.

So, she hesitated whether to get off the car or to directly chase after her on the motorcycle, but eventually, she chose to get off the car and parked the motorcycle steadily.

But just this delay, by the time she reached the outside of the courtyard, the little girl had already disappeared without a trace.

She looked left and right down the road, the road in front of the police station was straight, and she could see to the end, but she still couldn’t see anyone.

Jiang Xiyue was somewhat surprised.

"Could she be that fast?"

She had a faint feeling that something was not right.

"Xiao Jiang, Xiao Jiang, why did you block the entrance with your motorcycle?"

At that moment, a middle-aged policeman walked out from inside, it was Jiang Xiyue’s master, Lin Guoliang.

"Master, I just encountered a little girl reporting a crime."

Jiang Xiyue called him master because when she first joined the police station, he was the one who taught her police work, thus they naturally had a good relationship.

"Where is the little girl?" Lin Guoliang walked down from the steps.

"She disappeared in the blink of an eye; I was just wondering about it."

"Did the little girl mention what happened?"

"She said there is a dead person in the unfinished building ahead, a woman was murdered there." Jiang Xiyue said.

"What?"

Lin Guoliang’s eyes widened in disbelief, a death case was a big deal.

"The little girl wouldn’t be making a false report, would she?" Lin Guoliang continued.

However, before Jiang Xiyue could respond, he immediately murmured to himself, "Whether it’s true or not, it’s better to go and check."

Hearing this and about to move the motorcycle aside, Jiang Xiyue hurriedly said, "I’ll go with you."

"Let’s go."

Lin Guoliang strode towards his—electric moped.

Not all policemen are iron riders, able to ride motorcycles.

The distance was not far, about ten minutes, and the two arrived near the unfinished building, but it was completely sealed off and impossible to enter; they circled around and finally found an entrance that had been pried open.

So, the two parked their vehicles and crawled in through the entrance.

As soon as they entered, Jiang Xiyue curiously looked around the unfinished building, while Lin Guoliang took out his phone and carefully photographed the surroundings of the entryway.
