Substitute
In the interrogation room.
Ye Zichen sighed as he sat on the chair. At that moment, the police officer who had appeared at the scene also walked in and placed his notebook on the table.
"Just now, I had a brief understanding of the situation from Guo Jing. I don't think I can accuse you of anything."
Ye Zichen nodded silently. After a while, he finally spoke.
"Are they … all dead?"
"All dead." The police officer nodded noncommittally. "After the perpetrator killed all the victims, he committed suicide. Now that the case has been finalized, there's nothing to investigate. You're safe now. "
"Is that so?"
Ye Zichen nodded with a wry smile, then stood up from the chair. When he left the interrogation room, he saw that the door was already filled with people waiting for him. There was no need to mention Su Yan and co. Even Liu Qing's father, Chief Liu, had come.
"You're here too!"
With a bitter smile, Chief Liu nodded noncommittally.
"I heard from Little Zhang that you were in trouble, so I came over to take a look. How is it? What's the situation? "
"It's nothing." Ye Zichen shook his head with a smile. "You should receive the report soon …"
At that moment, the police officer that chatted with Ye Zichen just now walked out. When he saw Commissioner Liu, he immediately walked over quickly.
"Chief Liu, why are you here? I happen to have a case to discuss with you. What do you think … "
"Let's go!"
When Commissioner Liu and the police officer left, Ye Zichen and co. also left the police station. Along the way, Ye Zichen felt very depressed …
Murder.
Suicide!
Why did she do that at that time.
Ding dong.
The phone in his pocket rang. He took it out and saw that the message was from White Impermanence.
"Where are you? Let's meet up. It's been a long time since we last met!"
"Where are you right now?" Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows.
"I'm still at Polytechnic University. I just caught these kids …" White Impermanence replied.
"Then wait for me at the Polytechnic University. I'll be right back!"
"Alright."
Approximately ten-odd minutes later, Ye Zichen returned to school and headed straight to the girl's dormitory. Not far away, White Impermanence was circling the four spirits in her hands.
"Hey, you're here!"
When White Impermanence saw Ye Zichen, she immediately ran over.
He subconsciously glanced at the ghosts in her hands. These ghosts were the girls from Yao Yue's dorm. However, the strangest thing about the girls was that their gazes were rather blank. Even when they saw Ye Zichen, they didn't seem to recognize him.
This was strange.
Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows. At that moment, he suddenly noticed that Yao Yue's ghost wasn't here.
"You only caught four souls here? Didn't five die?"
"When I was on duty, I did say that five people had died, but when I came here, I found four of them. These little fellows are quite pitiful. Their souls have been taken away. Even if they reincarnate, they can only be idiots! "
One soul and one spirit were extracted!
Ye Zichen was shocked. King Qinguang had also told him that the ghosts he had encountered in the Underworld recently were all ghosts that were missing a part of their soul …
At that time, he had suspected that it was the work of the Devil Race. Could it be that the Devil Race had already extended their hands here?
But where did Yao Yue's soul go?
"Strange, too strange."
Ye Zichen frowned …
Fiery Eyes of Truth, activate!
A faint golden light floated out from his eyes. When he looked towards the girls' dormitory, he noticed that there wasn't any demonic energy in the building at all.
If there really were demons here, then the demonic energy should be very dense.
Even if a long time had passed, there would still be traces of it.
However, he couldn't feel any demonic energy at all.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?" White Impermanence waved her hand towards him. Only then did Ye Zichen return to his senses with a smile, "Nothing."
"Mhmm, I just wanted to see you. The Underworld is rather busy, so I have to hurry back."
"Alright, then go ahead!"
In the blink of an eye, White Impermanence disappeared with the little ghost girls. From then on, Ye Zichen continued to stare at the girls' dormitory … for a very, very long time.
At the same time, within a business hotel.
Guo Jing was wearing a bathrobe and sitting on the sofa in the room. Beside her was a man with a faint smile on his face.
"How is it? Are you used to this body?"
"It's alright," Guo Jing nodded. Guo Jing nodded. "But using someone else's body is always troublesome. I got a bit worried when her parents called just now."
"What are you worried about? Just use her body at ease!" The man took out a small glass bottle from his pocket with a feminine smile. "This bottle contains Guo Jing's soul. Just ask her if there's anything you don't understand."
"Soul?"
"Don't think about knowing too much. We are merely in a cooperative relationship right now," the man smiled once again. "From now on, you are Guo Jing. As for what you need to do in the future, I will arrange it for you. "
"Actually … Actually, I feel like this is enough. I don't want to!"
"This isn't a problem of whether you want to or not, my darling!" The man patted Guo Jing's face and smiled. "From the moment you agreed to switch bodies with me, you were already on my boat. It's impossible for you to give up halfway! Now, just work for me at ease. I … won't mistreat you! "
"Then when can I return to my own body!?" Guo Jing asked with a frown.
"That will depend on how obedient you are," with that, the man opened his bathrobe and spread his legs. "Come, my darling!"
After Ye Zichen left the girls' dormitory, he did not return to his own. Instead, he returned to his mansion.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Ye Rong couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she saw Ye Zichen's impatient look. "Wait a moment, mommy will go and wash some fruits for you."
"No need!" Ye Zichen stopped Mother Ye. "I came here to trouble you with something."
"What is it?"
"Can you feel the existence of demons in Bingcheng?"
With that, Mother Ye closed her eyes, and her body shone with a holy light. Not long later, she opened her eyes once again and shook her head.
"I don't feel anything. What? Did the demons extend their claws into Bingcheng?"
A hint of anger flashed across Mother Ye's eyes. She did not have a good impression of the demons at all.
"N-No, I'm just asking," Ye Zichen shook his head with a coy smile. "It's nothing, go and do what you need to do!"
"Okay, then Mom will wash the fruits for you."
Ye Rong didn't think too much about it and turned to leave. Just then, Little White ran over with its tongue out.
"Boss, you're looking for demons?"
