188: Chapter 188: Explosively Effective 188: Chapter 188: Explosively Effective “Captain Liao, why did you call me back? I was about to figure out the reason.” Liao Feng looked at the troublesome girl in front of him and felt a headache coming on, “I know you really disdain Zhao Guang, but you young folks should pick a different time to make a fuss, not now.” “Do you know how many things we have to deal with in our department right now? If you suddenly run off, won’t we be even more understaffed? Can’t you just focus on your duties first before anything else?” Liao Feng earnestly advised; he actually had high hopes for this girl, but why was she so out of sorts lately? Right, it all started when she met that guy named Zhao Guang. Though Zhao Guang looked somewhat unreliable, he was wealthy. Young and rich could attract young girls. But again, timing is critical in everything. Qian Duo grew impatient, “I’m sure he’s problematic; have you forgotten? The first time we found those hooligans trying to steal from his house, they were scared by ghosts, and they have not been normal ever since.” Qian Duo, counting on her fingers, continued, “Then there’s Wang Qishan, who started having misfortunes only after offending him. You know how unlucky he got, he ended up dead.” Of course, they knew about it since it happened not long ago and even became the subject of ridicule. For someone to be that unlucky, it was as if he had offended the gods themselves. The reason it became a joke was that Wang Qishan really was no good person. From what they found in the investigations later, they were even glad he died early. “You see, this is the third time now, right next to his house again, and someone encountered a ghost.” Watching Qian Duo gesture as she spoke, Liao Feng felt the urge to cover his face, “This is just a coincidence, do you understand what a coincidence means?” Was it necessary to trouble someone over such things? Last time they investigated thoroughly, and that guy genuinely had no issues. Moreover, they had been directly warned from above, which let them know that Zhao Guang probably had some connections. How could they afford to offend someone like that without clear evidence of wrongdoing? And the unfortunate ones this time were no good either, just a bunch of scumbags who deserved to die a long time ago. “Once or twice could be a coincidence, but a third time? Zhao Guang is definitely up to something.” What could Liao Feng say except to shout loudly, “You’re spreading superstitions, do you realize that? Can you justify wearing that uniform if you keep saying such things?” Qian Duo, now angered as well, retorted, “This isn’t spreading superstition, I suspect he has some special hallucinogenic Potions at his home.” “We checked last time already; there was nothing.” “Maybe he’s using a new type of Potion that we don’t know about.” “All this is just your speculation, we have more important matters at hand now. Let’s catch those scoundrels first, bring them to justice. Our role is to protect the public, not to target someone specifically.” Finally, Qian Duo softened, realizing indeed there were many issues at the station now. Had it not been for discovering something wrong with Zhao Guang, would she have gone to find him personally? Not much time had passed, and the leadership noticed and called her back. If given a bit more time, Qian Duo was confident she could unearth everything she wanted to know. But, alas, there was no more time; he was already prepared. “Alright, I understand,” Qian Duo lowered her head, pouted her lips, showing a face unwilling to admit her mistake. Elsewhere, matters of the previous day spread very quickly. After all, when Yu Laosan went insane, many people saw it, and he didn’t evade anyone. He ran all the way to the police station, with countless videos taken on the road. “Have you heard? That scoundrel Yu Laosan finally went mad and has been caught.” “I heard it long ago, and I also know that guy confessed to many people when he went mad. The entire city was in an uproar yesterday; they say a significant criminal gang was cracked down, and they are about to announce it.” “Not just one; there were several, involving many people.” The people around discussed fervently, sharing what they knew or making up stories. Zhao Guang himself ventured out to listen and gradually analyzed almost factual situations from these discussions. Now, Zhao Guang’s analytical skills were far better than before; previously, he couldn’t manage this. “So that’s how it is, the effect was explosively good.” Zhao Guang was very pleased with his Vengeful Spirit Possession Scroll. Actually, this trick was not any Necromancy Spell but merely an Illusion Technique. When people do guilty deeds, they feel haunted, and this Illusion Technique just leverages these psychological methods. If someone has caused deaths or owes people who they know have died, they may see ghosts. But these are merely hallucinations stemming from their own conscience, essentially akin to severe psychological disturbance but only lasting a few days. But Yu Laosan didn’t know that, so he treated these as real. Some aspects Zhao Guang couldn’t understand seemed to function based on how much evil one had committed. He wasn’t exactly sure of the details, but he knew: the greater the evil, the stronger the effect. Yu Laosan had always been a public front for some people behind the scenes; therefore, he couldn’t exactly be caught red-handed. Thus, the wrongdoings he did commit weren’t really considered significant. But, combined with the actions of those behind him, such people appeared exceedingly vile. This was why, after releasing the scroll, that guy didn’t die. Due to the fear of being caught, and to act as the executor at the forefront, Yu Laosan did not commit crimes directly. However, his guilt was much more severe than that of ordinary people. That’s why Yu Laosan went crazy last night in that manner. Because he truly believed that he had a hand in killing those people, even mainly responsible for those deaths. And those ghosts were not real, just hallucinations by Yu Laosan, who believed that ghosts wouldn’t dare enter the police station, manifesting as if those spirits indeed didn’t step inside the police station. Zhao Guang himself didn’t expect that by dealing with this guy, he would make him spill everything. Originally, there were several gangs linked behind him, now none could escape. “Doing this, I must have done something good,” Zhao Guang mused contentedly, pleased to be a real good Samaritan anonymously.
