Chapter 808 Asking the Master for Salvation
"Hmph...playing tricks..." Li Zhiyuan's hands were shaking constantly, and cold sweat was running down his temples. "Do you think you can fool me by taking off the handcuffs and playing some tricks?"
"What? Haven't you remembered that you are dead yet?" Feng Bujue paced with his hands in his pockets, lowered his head and pondered, "It seems that you were a very rational person when you were alive. 'Common sense' has been rooted in your consciousness. Even if you have become a lonely ghost now, you still..."
"Enough!" Li Zhiyuan interrupted Feng Bujue, "I warn you not to play tricks. This is in the police station. Do you think you can run away by fooling me?"
"Police station?" Feng Bujue turned his head and glanced at the other party, "Are you sure?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Zhiyuan's head buzzed.
The next second, the surrounding scenery changed. The originally bright space of more than ten square meters suddenly turned into an empty and dark environment.
"This is no longer a police station." Feng Bujue continued, "More than a decade ago, it was converted into a warehouse for storing old electrical appliances." He paused, "Since this building was built in the last century, there are many original design defects, so many new devices cannot be connected, so... seventeen years ago, five years after your death... this public security bureau has moved to 〖∨, somewhere else, and the current office is two kilometers away from here."
"You..." Li Zhiyuan still didn't believe Brother Jue, "This... This is impossible..."
Just as he was talking to himself, Feng Bujue walked back to the table. At this time, the "table" had become a horizontal refrigerator, and the "chair" they had just sat on turned out to be an air conditioner and a microwave oven.
"By the way..." Then, Jue Ge pointed his finger at a pile of waste newspapers on the refrigerator, which was the "document" that Chief Inspector Li had just taken, and said, "Nowadays, the police no longer use paper documents to take notes. They only need to take a tablet, scan the suspect's fingerprints, irises, and then identify the voiceprint, and all the information will be available. After doing this, they still use this tablet to question in the form of 'video' and record it together."
"Hehe... Hehe..." Suddenly, Li Zhiyuan laughed, it was a weird laugh, "I understand... You hypnotized me... What I saw were all illusions you hypnotized me to see... Yes... It must be like this... When you told me ghost stories before, you did it to me unconsciously..."
"Don't deceive yourself." Feng Bujue interrupted the other party. "I don't have that kind of convenient ability. If I did... I would have been the protagonist of a two-dimensional anime ten years ago."
His lines were too jumpy and shameless. Speaking at this moment just made it impossible for the other party to answer.
"Your doubts about these anomalies are actually easy to answer." Feng Bujue cast a sharp look at Li Zhiyuan, "Instead of looking for answers in me, why not try it on yourself..." He raised one hand and raised a finger, "First, please recall the specific date of today."
"Today... Today is December 5, 2033..." Li Zhiyuan murmured.
"Don't you think it's strange?" Feng Bujue didn't let the other party finish his words. "On a December night, I went out in shorts?"
Before the voice fell, Li Zhiyuan was stunned...
This matter is indeed unreasonable, but Li Zhiyuan doesn't understand... Before the other party mentioned it. Why did he ignore such an obvious anomaly?
"The date in your mind will always stay on December 5, 2033." Brother Jue continued, "Because that was the day Liu Xiaoya was killed."
The three words "Liu Xiaoya" were like a steel nail, piercing Li Zhiyuan's consciousness. The moment he heard this name. He collapsed and hugged his head, knelt on the ground... in extreme pain.
"Hmph..." Feng Bujue looked down at Li Zhiyuan with a condescending look and said, "It seems that this name is quite irritating to you... If I had known this, I wouldn't have to beat around the bush." He raised his second finger, "Then... Next, please recall how you brought me to this 'police station'? Where did you see the surveillance video of me?"
"I... Gu..." Li Zhiyuan's mind was in a mess. The severe headache made him unable to concentrate. A large number of messy images flooded into his mind and flashed before his eyes.
"It's impossible for you to remember, because you don't have those details in your memory." Feng Bujue said, "Police station, case, video, arrest... all of which you filled in in your mind after seeing me and talking to me." He licked his lips, "Think back... I have been guiding you since the beginning of the conversation..."
…………
"Are you new here?"
"I am the person who reported the case. I called 110. If you don't believe me, you can check the call records..."
"If you don't believe me, you can check the road surveillance..."
…………
"...You completed your memory based on the information I provided." Feng Bujue continued, "and made a 'reasonable' inference."
"No...it's not like that..." Li Zhiyuan held his head with both hands and muttered with difficulty, "You...are talking nonsense!"
"The only information you know is the time, location, and the owner of the antique shop who was attacked and dying." Feng Bujue ignored the other party and continued to say in a cold tone, "And you only want to get The conclusion is...'Who is the murderer?'" He paused for two seconds and then said, "I might as well tell you clearly...the murderer is Liu Xiaoya's ghost."
"ah--"
scold——scold——
Screams, a woman in red, a pale face, a hideous face, a painful face, a twisted face, blood, a lot of blood...
A large section of sounds and fragments swept through Li Zhiyuan's consciousness like a tsunami, causing him to crawl to the ground in pain again.
"The case that happened twenty-two years ago is not complicated at all." Feng Bujue did not stop narrating because of the other party's reaction. "An antique shop owner fell in love with the woman in the flower shop next door, but... The woman didn't like him.
So, one winter night, the boss killed the woman who rejected him.
That night... the first police officer who heard the screams and arrived at the scene was a police sergeant named Li. He was a very good detective, and he saw immediately that it was a murder and not a car accident, and arrested the antique shop owner.
However... the boss immediately made a threat. He claims to know some big shots. These people can ensure that he does not go to jail, and can also make Sheriff Li lose his job and even lose his ability to gain a foothold in society.
After listening for a while, Sheriff Li realized that the boss was not bluffing. He found that what the other party said was very likely to become reality.
He was shaken...
He realized...even if he did the right thing, the other party might not receive the punishment he deserved, and his own future and even his life would be lost on this case.
Just when he was wavering, the boss tried to lure him again.
At that time, Chief Li had just gotten married, and the woman’s income was more than his, which made him unable to hold his head high in front of his family...
Under many inducements...he compromised.
He helped the boss re-process the scene and made false evidence collection. I even taught the other party what words to use when writing notes.
A murder case turned into a traffic accident. "
Feng Bujue recounted this past event with an almost indifferent expression, but as an audience member, Li Zhiyuan was trembling with excitement, and his emotions were on the verge of losing control and collapsing.
"Seven days later..." Jue Ge paused for a few seconds and then said, "Liu Xiaoya avenged herself..." He smiled strangely again, "Ha...it's a coincidence that that day...it happened to be you. The day when you were getting paid from the owner of the antique shop. That evil spirit tortured her murderer to death in front of you... The reason why she didn't kill you too was because before the owner died. You are already crazy."
At this point, Li Zhiyuan suddenly stopped shaking.
"What? Did you remember it?" Feng Bujue looked at him and asked.
"Yeah..." Li Zhiyuan stood up from the ground, "Two days later...I committed suicide in the hospital..." At this moment. His face was ashen, and his entire figure became translucent, "And the memory after that... was a mess..."
"It's normal." Feng Bujue said, "Didn't I tell you about science before? Ghosts like you are in an 'unconscious and incorporeal' state most of the time. They are unable to maintain their own 'existence' Under the premise, there will be no memory.”
"Have I ever harmed anyone in these years?" Li Zhiyuan's tone. It has become more stable.
"It's okay..." Brother Jue replied, "You are not a bad ghost, you are just an earth-bound spirit. Only during the four major ghost festivals can you have the ability to interfere with living people."
"Then today is..." Li Zhiyuan asked tentatively.
"Hungry Ghost Festival." Feng Bujue responded.
"That's it..." Li Zhiyuan nodded.
"Similar rumors have been circulating around here..." Feng Bujue continued, "It is said that... every ghost festival, there will be gangsters or drunkards walking alone at night who will be killed by someone who doesn't know where. The 'police' took them to a 'police station that should not exist' for interrogation. The next day, they would wake up in an abandoned warehouse, most likely half-dead from fear, and then they would go around telling people... …But the credibility of what these people say is relatively low, and even if they call the police, it is impossible for the police to open a case for investigation.”
"Is that so..." Chief Li said thoughtfully, "Maybe I... still want to fulfill my duties as a police officer after I die..."
"Haha... don't put gold on your face." Feng Bujue poured cold water on him, "Twenty-two years ago, you suffered a mental breakdown because you saw a ghost killing someone with your own eyes. So your reason and memory ... They all stayed at that point. As I said just now, I only remember three pieces of information... time, December 5, 2033; location, antique shop in the Flower and Bird Market on DF Road; incident... collapsed in a pool of blood. "The dying antique store manager." He shrugged, "Your spirit cannot accept and bear the fact that the ghost kills people, so you have blocked this part of the content. This has led to... you have been trying to do it all these years." Solve the case to untie the knot in your heart." He pointed at his face, "Tonight, this conversation between you and me is the best evidence. If I were replaced by someone else... I think it would be tomorrow morning. There will be another passerby here who is scared to death."
Li Zhiyuan couldn't refute. He was silent for a moment and asked, "What do you want to do now?"
"How?" Feng Bujue smiled, "Haha...what can I do to you? I'm just a bait."
"What did you say?" Li Zhiyuan looked puzzled.
"Xiaodong~" Suddenly, Feng Bujue turned his head and shouted to his left side.
His voice echoed in the empty warehouse, bringing out waves of echoes.
"Xiaodong?" Li Zhiyuan became more and more confused. He couldn't help but realize another problem...since he was a ghost. Then who/what is the "Xiaodong" who brought in Feng Bujue's wallet just now? If that "Xiaodong" was just his imagination, then...why would Feng Bujue call him that name now?
"What Xiaodong... don't make such nonsense."
A few seconds later, accompanied by voices, a man wearing a police uniform walked over. He seemed to be the "Xiaodong" who just came in to give Sheriff Li his wallet. But when Li Zhiyuan took a closer look at the man's face, he found that... he didn't recognize this person at all.
"Hello." The man walked up to Li Zhiyuan and took off his police hat. "I'm not Xiaodong, my name is Bao Qing."
"Are you..." Li Zhiyuan said doubtfully.
"I am someone who specializes in handling situations like yours, don't worry. I will be responsible for saving you." Bao Qing continued, "As for him..." He rolled his eyes at Brother Jue, "...he is a friend of mine. , I heard that I have a mission tonight, and I insist on coming out to 'see something', and volunteering to be some kind of 'bait' for me." He shook his head and looked at Li Zhiyuan again, "Actually, you can handle this situation... It's not complicated, and I don't need anyone else to be a 'bait'. You see... I even borrowed the outfit just to lure you out, but it was all in vain."
Li Zhiyuan was stunned. He looked at Bao Qing and then at Brother Jue: "Then why did he..."
"Oh. He read my investigation report and related information, so he got the information about you." Bao Qing responded, spreading his hands and sighing, "Oh... I spent a lot of effort I went to investigate... I peeled off the details along the way and followed the clues... Only then did I uncover the facts of the case from decades ago. This guy is good... I figured out about 20% of the content in advance. , still showing off there..."
"What are you talking about?" Feng Bujue stood there and shook his hair, looking like he was in need of a beating. "I came here so enthusiastically to help you catch ghosts. I even broke the 'ghost realm' for you, and you are still there chirping and trying to tear me down. Is it appropriate?"
Hearing this, Bao Qing put on a serious face and raised his middle finger to Feng Bujue without saying a word.
When Feng Bujue saw this, he also raised his middle finger with both hands to fight back.
Men's friendship is like this. Two people who insult, ridicule, and even have physical conflicts with each other frequently...are either mortal enemies or best friends.
"Ignore him. As for your ghost state, I destroyed it with my spiritual power in minutes. It's nothing like him... he can only open his mouth." After a few seconds, Bao Qing put away his middle finger and said to Li Zhiyuan.
"Hey... why are you telling me this in a comforting tone..." The corners of Li Zhiyuan's mouth twitched, "As if you would be happy to say that I am weak..."
"Bah!" On the other side, Feng Bujue was dissatisfied again, "Your approach of purely relying on strength to exorcise ghosts is obviously a second-rate... No! Third-rate method." He said seriously, "A first-rate ghost exorcist master , they all try their best to untie the knots in the hearts of the evil ghosts... allowing them to realize their wishes and be freed naturally. "
"Okay, okay... stop pretending to be cool with me..." Bao Qingxu said with eyes, "What do you think I want to do by investigating so much information? Is it because I'm full? If I want to use my strength to do it , can’t we just use spiritual power to smash him to pieces? Why bother with all that?” He looked at Brother Jue with disdain, “What I said before... was about using spiritual power to forcefully break the ghost realm. It’s not about using spiritual power to forcefully exorcise ghosts. Don’t try to change the concept for me. And..." He looked Feng Bujue up and down, "When did you become a master of exorcism? There is a limit to your arrogance, right? You can't use any spiritual power now. Apart from being able to see and touch, you are just an ordinary person. At best, you have innate yin and yang eyes..." He raised his hand and gestured, "Don't say that. What kind of ghost exorcist is he? Even compared to ordinary ghost hunters... he is still far behind. "
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Feng Bujue shook his head and argued, "To evaluate me only by my ability is really..."
"Except for your psychic ability...don't you only have the ability to bullshit..." Bao Qing interrupted, "What's so big about this? Just what you said to fool Lao Li just now, I'm just talking about it." ah."
"You even called me 'Lao Li'..." Li Zhiyuan said, unable to interrupt, "These two guys suddenly got into a fight among themselves, and even changed the names they called me... After all, What kind of fuss is going on..."
"Okay, come on." Feng Bujue said, "First, let me listen to Duan'er's three major disciplines and eight points of attention."
"You think that's the name of the dish!" Bao Qing yelled.
"I said..." Li Zhiyuan couldn't bear it anymore. He tried to stop the two people, "You two..."
But the two guys still seemed to ignore him and were still talking to each other. .
"All actions must be followed as commanded, and victory can be achieved by working in unison. Without taking a single step from the masses, the masses support and rejoice..."
"Steamed lamb, steamed bear's paw, steamed deer tail, roasted duck, roasted chicken, roasted goose..."
"I said……"
"Don't tease women, get rid of hooligan habits, don't abuse prisoners, don't beat or scold them, don't search their pockets..."
"Red meatballs, white meatballs, fried meatballs, fried meatballs, three-fresh meatballs, four-joy meatballs..."
"You two, stop it, bastards!" Finally, Li Zhiyuan couldn't stand it anymore, he roared loudly, "I'm in a hurry to reincarnate, bastards! Kill, chop, save, and destroy me, hurry up, bastard!" (To be continued..)
