Chapter 127: Chapter 124: Has Wang Xuan Become Evil?
The two arrived at the police station to find all the police officers with solemn expressions on their faces.
"Do you want to have a look at the surveillance footage?"
Huo Xun didn’t lead Qin Zhao directly to the scene of the crime, as it was simply too terrifying.
Qing Zhao nodded and went to view the surveillance footage first.
"This is the cell where Ye Jin was held."
Huo Xun pointed to a room on the surveillance monitor.
They started with the footage from the corridor, which showed that after Ye Jin was locked up, only a few interrogating officers had visited his cell, and then nobody else entered.
Around seven o’clock in the evening, blood started to seep slowly out of Ye Jin’s cell.
After watching this part of the footage, Huo Xun switched to another angle.
It showed the inside of Ye Jin’s cell.
Ye Jin initially sat on the edge of the bed, seemingly pondering something.
Suddenly, he jerked his head up, a look of horror on his face.
But there was nobody else in his room.
Ye Jin began to dash around the cell, kneeling on the ground, constantly kowtowing, begging for forgiveness.
In the end, he stood up, ran to the door, and shouted for help.
Yet, as he ran, it seemed as if invisible fine threads in the air sliced his body into six pieces.
These six parts were deliberately his head, limbs, and torso.
Wang Xuan, after her death, was also cut into these six parts by Ye Jin, who then put her back together.
When Qin Zhao saw this scene, he knew it was Wang Xuan’s revenge.
After this segment, the surveillance footage displayed a blurred image, as if it had been disturbed by some magnetic field.
"After seeing this footage, I can’t think of anyone who could commit such a flawless crime inside a police station. Considering Ye Jin’s behavior before his death, I think it might have been done by something non-human."
Huo Xun spoke gravely, which was why he had called Qin Zhao.
"Indeed, it was not a human."
Qin Zhao agreed with his guess, "I’ll go take a look at the crime scene."
If Wang Xuan was the culprit, her aura would be left behind.
As Wang Xuan’s body was tainted with the stench of blood, it was unknown whether she might turn into an Evil Ghost, bringing harm to others.
She had to find Wang Xuan quickly to prevent any further tragedies.
Hiss, hiss—
Just as they were about to leave the monitoring room, the surveillance image suddenly restored itself.
"Wang Xuan, I knew you wouldn’t let me off. Now that we’re both ghosts, who’s afraid of whom? Come on, today either you’re scattered to the winds, or I am!"
Suddenly, two semi-transparent figures appeared in the surveillance video.
Apart from the recently deceased Ye Jin, there was another woman with a fierce expression—Wang Xuan!
"Ha ha ha ha ha, having the soul scattered to the winds? That would be letting you off too easy!
Ye Jin, oh Ye Jin, you’ve really deceived me so bitterly! I gave you my all, and this is how you trample on it! Someone like you doesn’t deserve to live, nor do you deserve the chance for rebirth!"
Wang Xuan was shrouded in black aura, her eyes blood-red, her expression manic.
Having killed Ye Jin, she had already evolved into an Evil Ghost.
Ye Jin, this freshly deceased ghost, was no match for her at all.
Sensing Wang Xuan’s powerful aura, Ye Jin looked wary and turned to run.
Realizing he was no match for Wang Xuan, he lost all his earlier arrogance.
"Ah!"
Just as he flew out of the cell, Wang Xuan flicked her hair, entangled his neck, and yanked him back.
The terrifying female ghost opened her gaping maw and starting from the head, devoured Ye Jin’s soul.
"Hehehe."
Having devoured Ye Jin’s soul, she began to laugh softly.
"Now, you can be with me forever."
Suddenly, a loud thud, a police officer collapsed to the ground.
The images on the monitor had cast a great psychological shadow over them.
At this moment, Wang Xuan’s soul looked up in the direction of the monitor.
"Damn, that’s fucking terrifying."
Several of the younger police officers shivered with fright.
Huo Xun picked up the remote and turned off the monitor.
With a complex expression, he said to Qin Zhao, "We didn’t see this footage earlier, so why did it suddenly appear after you arrived?"
They had watched the security footage over and over again.
If they had seen this segment earlier, the others wouldn’t have been so startled.
"You didn’t see it when you were watching?"
Qin Zhao couldn’t help but feel somewhat surprised.
Someone asked, "Is she still here?"
As soon as these words were uttered, everyone else felt a chill crawl over their scalps.
Thinking of the scene he’d just witnessed, especially Wang Xuan’s meaningful turn of her head, Chu Yan couldn’t help but say, "She must have intentionally shown it to you."
"Me?" Qin Zhao’s eyes held a hint of amusement, "Why would she do that?"
When they had arrived, Chu Yan had casually asked, and Qin Zhao had told him everything about the Magic Troupe.
So Chu Yan knew that Wang Xuan and Qin Zhao were acquainted, and he understood the background of the situation.
"She’s a ghost, you’re a Heavenly Master. If we compare it to human relationships, she is now the criminal, and you are the police officer. Analyzing from a criminal psychology perspective, she is preparing to escape the charge."
Upon hearing Chu Yan’s words, Huo Xun fell into contemplation.
"The look in Wang Xuan’s eyes when she turned her head was indeed terrifying, but it also contained a hint of sorrow and despair. If she were a person, such an expression would elicit sympathy."
Chu Yan nodded, "She is the one who was betrayed and hurt, and people can understand why she would do something like this. But why deliberately look at the monitor?
It’s because she wants you to feel sorry for her, so that you would let her go."
In fact, Qin Zhao too had sensed that something was amiss.
With Chu Yan’s input, his thoughts became even clearer.
Previously, he had emphasized to Wang Xuan that ghosts who kill are destined for hell.
"But I’m not a Netherworld Envoy, even if I feel sorry for her, the underworld won’t show her any sympathy."
Chu Yan smiled, "As long as one doesn’t go to the underworld, there’s no need for the sympathy of a Netherworld Envoy."
Hearing this, Qin Zhao’s expression grew solemn, "Let’s go, we should take a look at the scene."
The crime scene had not been cleared and was preserved as it was when the incident occurred.
Wang Xuan had killed Ye Jin here and then consumed his soul, so Qin Zhao managed to extract Wang Xuan’s ghost energy from Ye Jin’s body, which could be used to find her with the Tracking Technique.
They quickly located Wang Xuan, who was sitting in a forest nearby and had not gone far from the police station.
"Wait here for me, I’ll go out and find her."
Qin Zhao quickly left the station and approached a nearby grove.
Wang Xuan was sitting on a large stone, her soul solidified and appearing like a real person.
But her murderous and ghostly energies had receded, so she seemed less frightening.
Seeing Qin Zhao approaching, she smiled at him, "Heavenly Master Qin, I still couldn’t resist killing him. Does this mean I can’t be reincarnated?
I’ve heard there are Eighteen Layers of Hell in the underworld, and for someone like me, that’s where I’d go, isn’t it?"
Qin Zhao observed her for a moment, his gaze growing colder.
"Yes, I warned you about this before."
"Is there any way I could avoid reincarnation? If you don’t summon the Netherworld Envoys, they shouldn’t be able to find me, right?"
Wang Xuan looked pathetically at Qin Zhao.
