"Why is it taking so long…"
At the breakfast shop opposite, Niu Qiuling watched Wan Yunting's car slowly pull over. She immediately opened the car door and got into the passenger seat. Wan Yunting immediately drove back. Niu Qiuling eagerly asked, "How was it? Did you find his home strange? Did you go into his parents' room to look?"
Wan Yunting glanced at Niu Qiuling and shook his head, "I went in. His home is very normal, not strange at all like you said."
"Normal? How is that possible?"
Niu Qiuling's almond-shaped eyes widened. "Last time, when Detective Zhou and I went to his house, we felt that his home was extremely strange. How could it be normal?"
Wan Yunting sighed. "I went into his parents' room, and there were only portraits of his parents. I also went into his room and observed every corner of his house. There's really nothing strange. Are you all being overly suspicious?"
"Impossible. You said yourself that ghosts and gods exist in this world, so there must be something strange about his house."
Niu Qiuling still didn't believe it. She glared at Wan Yunting, "Don't you think he's your classmate, so you're intentionally saying this?"
Wan Yunting, speechless, turned his head and glared at her. "Do you think I'm that kind of person?"
Niu Qiuling naturally believed he wasn't that kind of person, but she was still confused. "It's impossible. Could it be that he knew you were coming, so he made everything normal?"
Wan Yunting asked, "What about Detective Zhou's side?"
"I'll call him now."
Saying that, Niu Qiuling took out her phone and called Zhou Dong directly. When he answered, she asked, "Detective Zhou, how are things on your end?"
At this time, Zhou Dong, along with Wu Lei and Huang Yongxin, was heading back to the police station. He said, "We didn't get any clues. Now we can only think of other ways to figure out if it was Tian Guofu who set fire to Guan Hongyu's parents' factory back then."
At this, Wan Yunting raised an eyebrow. Could it be that he was being overly suspicious?
"Detective Zhou, Wan Yunting has also come out of Guan Hongyu's house. He said it's normal and there's nothing strange about it," Niu Qiuling said.
However, Zhou Dong seemed to have expected this. "Guan Hongyu must have guessed that we would send Yunting to test him, so he was already prepared."
"I think so too," Niu Qiuling said.
"Alright, let's go back to the police station and discuss it."
Zhou Dong hung up the phone after saying that. Niu Qiuling said "Mm" and put down her phone, turning to Wan Yunting and saying, "Detective Zhou wants us to go back to the police station to talk."
"Alright."
Wan Yunting nodded and drove. In a short while, they arrived back at the police station. Zhou Dong and his team had also just returned. The group entered the police station and went directly to the criminal investigation department. Pang Yuan saw Wan Yunting and came over to ask, "How is it? How is the case progressing?"
Zhou Dong immediately replied, "To Director Pang, the suspect we've currently identified is Guan Hongyu!"
Pang Yuan nodded and said to Wan Yunting, "I heard that this Guan Hongyu is also your classmate."
"Yes," Wan Yunting nodded.
Pang Yuan asked, "What do you think?"
Wan Yunting raised an eyebrow and slightly shook his head. "I don't have any leads right now, but several clues still point to him as the suspect."
Pang Yuan nodded. "Xiao Wan, why don't you excuse yourself, and let Zhou Dong and the others investigate this case?"
But Wan Yunting shook his head. "Director Pang, please let me assist Detective Zhou. Don't worry, I won't make a wrong judgment because of my relationship with Guan Hongyu."
This made Pang Yuan and Zhou Dong exchange glances. They knew that Wan Yunting would stand on the side of justice. "Alright, then you must proceed diligently. The Tian Guofu case has a huge impact on society, and also the two murder cases at the wetland park today. The culprits must be apprehended as soon as possible. Whether it's a human or a ghost, they must be brought to justice."
"Yes…"
Wan Yunting, Zhou Dong, and Niu Qiuling and the others immediately stood up and accepted the order.
"Alright, you may proceed with your investigation."
Pang Yuan said no more and turned to attend to his own business.
At this moment, forensic doctor Qin Bo entered with the autopsy reports of the two bodies from that morning. "Detective Zhou, the results are out. Just like Lin Huiping, both of their carotid arteries were bitten open, and all their blood was drained. At the same time, we found a few fingerprints on the bodies!"
"Fingerprints."
At this, everyone present immediately became excited. Forensic doctor Qin Bo nodded, "I've already asked the technical department to investigate the fingerprints."
"That's great."
Niu Qiuling, Wu Lei, and Huang Yongxin were invigorated. They didn't expect to find useful fingerprints on the bodies.
Needless to say, these must have been left by the killer!
Just then, a police officer from the technical department came in and said, "Detective Zhou, Forensic Doctor Qin, we've identified the fingerprints. They belong to a woman named Luo Sang Zhuoma from Xizang Rikazhe City!"
"From Xizang?"
At this, Wan Yunting, Zhou Dong, Niu Qiuling, and everyone present looked stunned. "A person from Xizang came all the way to our Huadu City to kill people?"
The police officer from the technical department had a strange expression. "What's even stranger is that this woman named Luo Sang Zhuoma died in an accident on October 8th!"
"What? You said she's dead?"
Niu Qiuling's almond eyes widened. Wu Lei and Huang Yongxin were dumbfounded. Even Wan Yunting and Zhou Dong's expressions were frozen. "How is that possible? How can a dead person appear in our Huadu City, and even commit murder?"
Wu Lei and Huang Yongxin exchanged glances, and suddenly felt a chill down their spines. "Oh my god, it's not really haunted, is it?"
"Don't talk nonsense."
Zhou Dong turned and glared at them. "Perhaps the killer faked Luo Sang Zhuoma's fingerprints and deliberately left them on the bodies to mislead us."
However, Wan Yunting, sitting beside them, frowned. Why Xizang?
Guan Hongyu had returned from Xizang. Could it really be related to him?
"Alright, find the police station in Rikazhe City, Xizang, where Luo Sang Zhuoma was located, and contact the local police. I'll ask what's going on," Zhou Dong said to the technical officer.
"Okay."
The technical officer nodded and went out to find the contact number for the local police.
Zhou Dong turned and saw Wan Yunting frowning. He asked, "Yunting, what do you think?"
Wan Yunting looked up at him and Niu Qiuling. "Let's go back to the original question, the Heavenly Eye Sovereign God Cult!"
These words made Wu Lei, Huang Yongxin, and the other officers exchange glances. Wan Yunting said seriously, "From the ritualistic murders of Zhao Fuyang and Fei Xiang, we determined that it was done by people from the Heavenly Eye Sovereign God Cult!"
"Now, Tian Guofu's wife, Lin Huiping, died in an incomprehensible and eerie manner, and then the male and female couple at the wetland park also died in the same way. It's not difficult to understand that the killer is not human. Perhaps it's an evil creature created by the Heavenly Eye Sovereign God Cult!"
"Evil creature?"
Zhou Dong frowned, while Niu Qiuling and Wu Lei looked astonished.
At this stage of the investigation, based on the autopsy reports for Lin Huiping and the male and female couple brought back that morning, the common characteristic of the bite marks on their necks was that they were made by human teeth!
"Could it be zombies?"
Huang Yongxin's eyes widened, and he exclaimed.
"What zombies."
Niu Qiuling glared at him. Wan Yunting, however, said, "It's possible. After all, the Heavenly Eye Sovereign God Cult itself is an evil cult. According to Grandfather Chang, it's very easy for them to refine strange and bizarre evil creatures using sorcery. It's possible that the ones who killed Lin Huiping and that couple were evil creatures like zombies!"
However, Zhou Dong stopped him and chuckled, shaking his head. "Yunting, you're going too far with the supernatural. I still don't quite believe in these ghost and god theories."
At this moment, the technical officer returned and said, "Zhou Dong, I've found a deputy captain of the criminal investigation department in Rikazhe City, Xizang. He's the officer in charge of Luo Sang Zhuoma's case, Gashi. Here's the phone number."
