Punish the guilty and rectify the wrongs
After repeated inquiries, He Yang finally found Du Siling and Dong Shuanghe's residence, and also learned that the two were indeed members of the special task force.
The next morning, He Yang led a group of people to the hotel to find Du Si Lin and the others, saying that they were going to take them back to the police station to assist in the investigation of the missing evidence case.
The one who opened the door was none other than Nü Er of the Luohua Cave.
After returning to the hotel, Du Siling first made a temporary puppet for Lan'er. A good puppet is very laborious and obviously not the time now, so Lan'er also retreated and agreed that after Du Siling handled things here, he would make one for her.
Possessing the temporary puppet, Lan Er's appearance was exactly as it was when she died. Although her figure wasn't as tall and slender as Du Si Lin and Dong Shuang He, she was still elegant and refined, with every gesture and movement exuding a unique charm that captivated people's hearts.
"Head..." The little policeman who knocked on the door saw Lan Er and couldn't even say his original lines, blushing as he looked back at He Yang.
Liang'er is not as good as either Du Shilin or Dong Shuanghe. However, she was born in a brothel and every word and action of hers, whether intentional or not, has already charmed the people around her.
He Yang also let out a light cough and pushed aside the small police officer in front of him, taking a step forward and slightly lowering his head to look at Lan.
"We are from the Su County Public Security Bureau's Major Crimes Unit, and we want to find Taito and Seventeen to cooperate with our investigation." He Yangsi added, organizing his official tone, and said to Lan'er.
Du Sulin and Dong Shuanghe only used the names Taiteng and Seventeen when they introduced themselves at that time. Moreover, with their methods, how could He Yang find out their real names? "This probably won't work..." Lan'er smiled apologetically, her body slightly tilted to lean against the door frame, blocking the only passageway that He Yang and others could enter.
He Yang's face turned cold as soon as he heard this, and he said solemnly: "Are you trying to interfere with the work of public officials?"
Lan's expression changed, seeming to be a little afraid, but the corners of her lips curled up uncontrollably. Her slender jade-like hands covered those tempting lips, "Such a big hat on Lan's head, Lan is going to be scared!"
"Excuse me," at this time, Chen Zhouyuan's voice sounded from a place not far from He Yang, "what are you going to do?"
At this time, he opened his sleepy eyes and endured the hangover headache that had not been completely relieved, walking to He Yang's side.
His height is still slightly different from He Yang's.
"Last night, important evidence from the police station was stolen. We suspect it's related to Taito and Seventeen, so we'd like them to come back and assist with the investigation." As he spoke, He Yang sized up the refined and elegant man in front of him, thinking that he must be the Chen Zhouzong with a mysterious background that the director had mentioned.
The important evidence of the police station was stolen, and Liu Zhonghua, as the director, would not know. After learning that He Yang's suspicious target was Du Siling and Dong Shuanghe, he hurriedly gave He Yang a few alarm clocks. He Yang's ability is naturally clear, since he suspected Du Siling and Dong Shuanghe, there must be his reason, and he can't let He Yang find trouble too clearly.
He Yang's purpose was naturally known to Chen Zhou, but on the surface, he couldn't admit it. At this time, his eyes rolled over, and his expression also cooled down a bit: "Director He means to arrest us, then please show me the arrest warrant."
He Yang's expression stiffened, and he was arrested. How could he have an arrest warrant? Just because of Chen Zhou Yun's identity, Director Liu would never give him an arrest warrant.
"We just want to ask the two of them to cooperate with the investigation, let the police understand more about the situation, it's not an arrest, cooperating with the police is every citizen's obligation, I think Mr. Chen would also agree, right?"
These two people had never asked each other's names, but as soon as they spoke, they were familiar with each other. However, in this confrontation, Chen Zhou Yun was clearly going to take the upper hand.
Just as he was about to say more to refuse He Yang's request, Du Sulin's figure appeared beside Lan Er.
"Huh?" Du Sulin's expression was quite strange, as if she hadn't expected He Yang to bring so many people and at the same time seemed completely unrelated to her purpose for coming. She yawned with a smile of schadenfreude, watching the commotion with a detached air.
Chen Zhou Yun was also sizing up Du Si Lin with an odd gaze, and although he wasn't entirely aware of what had been happening to her these past few days, he did have some inkling. It's just that he never expected the formerly emotionless girl who didn't know the first thing about emotions would now have so many complicated feelings.
This is the real carefree and unrestrained Du Shilin, doing as he pleases and going with his nature.
"What's everyone staring at me for?" Du Sulin realized that his appearance had attracted the attention of the crowd, and he waved his hand, "I'm just here to join in on the fun, you all continue, don't mind me."
As soon as this was said, both Chen Zhou and He Yang's faces fell, with a row of black lines on their foreheads. They were secretly cursing in their hearts, "You're just here to watch the excitement, but don't you know that it's all because of you?"
"Last night, the police station was burglarized and evidence was stolen. Is it related to you?" Seeing the host appear, He Yang also stopped talking to Chen Zhou Yun and fixed his gaze on Du Si Lin, as if he wanted to see through her.
He knew that bringing these two people to the police station today wouldn't be an easy task, so he might as well seize the opportunity and ask them directly on the spot.
Du Sulin didn't mind He Yang's sharp gaze, and a tiny smile played on his lips. His face was innocent and bewildered: "The police station was robbed, what does it have to do with me? I was out strolling with Seventeen on the streets all night, if you don't believe me, you can go investigate." A pair of clear and bright eyes met He Yang's gaze without hesitation.
At this moment, He Yang had an illusion of being seen through.
"However," Du Sulin furrowed her brow, the short hair on her forehead covering her smiling eyebrows, and a hint of cunning that was not known to others appeared in her downcast eyes. She paused for a moment, as if thinking about something.
"What's wrong?" He Yang hastily asked back.
When Du Siling lifted her head again, her eyes were calm as usual. The changes just now were all hidden in the moment she lifted her head. "You brought so many people to take me and Seventeen back, so we'll be good citizens and cooperate with you!" After speaking, she stretched out both hands. The wide sleeves fell slightly, revealing wrists as white and delicate as moonlight, slender fingers, soft and weak like boneless.
"Protect him!" Chen Zhouyuan shouted, he didn't know why Du Silin agreed to go back with He Yang, but as someone who had also come out of the police station, he knew all too well about the secret tactics used to deal with people. Whether it was because of his relationship with Du Sihuan or because of Du Silin himself, he couldn't let Du Silin suffer even a little bit of injustice under his watch, otherwise he would lose face in front of Du Sihuan who had always taken care of him.
But Du Sulin's gaze blocked Chen Zhouyuan's next words, and then she turned her head to look at He Yang again, with a smile still in her eyebrows and eyes, and her outstretched hands did not withdraw.
He Yang did not take any action to respond to Du Si Lin's cooperation at the first time, because he still didn't dare to believe that Du Si Lin would cooperate so much, especially with Chen Zhou Yun present.
"Am I together with you?" Dong Shuanghe also came out at this time, but her state was much better than Du Siling's ghostly and strange appearance, at least she still looked calm and composed.
At this time, He Yang's phone rang. After answering a few words on the phone, he didn't know what the person on the other end of the phone said, his expression suddenly stiffened, his eyes tightly staring at Du Siling, and after hanging up the phone, he didn't speak for half a moment.
Du Sulin stretched out his hand and got tired, so he withdrew it back.
"We're leaving!" After a long time, He Yang finally said to the people behind him, his words were somewhat clenched. Before leaving, he seemed to have re-examined Du Si Lin from head to toe again.
Until He Yang and others completely disappeared from view, Lan Er finally couldn't help but burst out laughing, covering her mouth.
Chen Zhouwen was baffled and said: "What's going on? Why did He Yang leave again?"
Du Sulin gave a mysterious smile, looked at Lan'er with profound meaning, gave her a thumbs up, stretched his waist and turned to walk into the house.
Yes, He Yang just received a phone call saying that Yu Zhu had been found.
"Are you sure it's okay to put that jade pillar back?" Dong Shuanghe also returned to the room, and in an instant, he snuggled into the sofa, soon to be buried by the softness of the sofa.
Du Sulin slapped a palm on Dong Shuanghe's calf, indicating that she should move over and make room for herself to sit down.
"That jade pillar actually looks very mysterious, and its function is indeed unexpected, but in reality it's not that powerful," Du Sulin explained carefully. "I took some time last night to study it a bit, and I guess the number of souls it can trap is limited, probably only one or two people's souls. In an unsaturated state, it will absorb wandering souls living in the air. As for why we sent the jade pillar back, it's because for now, I don't have any way to get the souls trapped by the jade pillar out, and even if I did, maybe they wouldn't know more than we do, so I might as well reduce some trouble for myself."
Dong Shuanghe raised an eyebrow, indicating she understood Du Siling's words.
"You're good, letting Lan'er do all the hard work!" Lan'er said with a hint of resentment, her pink lips pouting slightly. Her slender waist looked as soft as a willow branch, making one want to reach out and pinch it.
Du Sulin nodded and stretched out both hands to give Lan'er a thumbs up, smiling and praising: "Lan'er is a good girl!"
Lan'er had always been one to yield to softness but not to hardness, as the saying goes, "Don't hit a smiling face." At this moment, seeing Du Si Lin's beaming smile, she knew that she was being teased, yet the grievances and dissatisfaction in her heart couldn't gather together.
But even so, she couldn't let Du Si Lin know her true thoughts, and with a stamp of her foot, she hummed and went towards the inner room.
"What about the zombie you temporarily sealed? How are you planning to deal with it?" Dong Shuanghe suddenly spoke up.
Du Sulin shook his head, He Yang disagreed with burning the body. After Yu Zhu's incident, he must have been more vigilant against Du Sulin and others. She didn't have the ability to destroy the evidence without anyone noticing.
Dong Shuanghe saw the situation, thought for a moment, and said what was on his mind: "A corpse that has lost its soul can't become a zombie. Can you get the zombie's soul out?"
Du Sulin shook his head and said, "The soul is in its own body, I'll get it out of custody. This is a violation of the heavenly way. If I do this, I will be implicated in the cause and effect, and the outcome will be very tragic. Maybe my fate will be that my soul will be taken out by someone else."
People like Du Sulin, who have been in contact with Taoism for many years, believe in the concept of cause and effect, especially in divination and calculation. The so-called heavenly secret cannot be revealed, which is exactly this principle. Revealing too much heavenly secret will lead to entanglement with the cause and effect of too many people, and there will be no good outcome. At best, one's lifespan will be shortened, and at worst, a thunderbolt from heaven may strike, resulting in instant death without leaving a whole corpse.
Although Duslin wasn't afraid of shortening her lifespan, even if she did shorten it again, she wouldn't grow old or die. In a certain sense, zombies had already escaped the cycle of reincarnation, but she still feared getting entangled in unnecessary karma.
"This matter, I should be able to handle it." Chen Zhouyuan interrupted. Listening to the conversation between Du and Dong, he also roughly guessed what had happened and that Lan'er had helped Du Siling return the jade pillar to the police station. He thought to himself that there were always all sorts of strange people around Du Siling, was it really a case of "birds of a feather flocking together"? Just like Fang Feng, Jing Ji, Xiao Long Dan and so on, now that he had arrived in Su County, on the first night he had already met Lan'er.
Du Sulin almost slapped his forehead, ah! He Yang was indeed the head of the major crimes unit, and Chen Zhou Yun's official position may not be high, but it was more than enough to let He Yang burn a corpse, so he happily and reassuringly entrusted this matter to Chen Zhou Yun.
The two corpses found by the police have been resolved. Since it was confirmed that they were zombies, Du Sulin and Dong Shuanghe decided to take a good stroll in Suzhou County to see if there were any undiscovered victims or zombies.
