Xia Mingyuan guessed right, Captain Long called me the next night.

"Master, have you finished packing?" They didn't explain the case clearly, they just told us to hurry up and go. "

After I hung up the phone, I hastily packed my stuff and went to Xia Mingyuan's door to wait for him.

Xia Mingyuan took the few things he had prepared and walked to the door. He thought about it for a while, then decided to bring the Jade Glaze Kirin Sovereign along.

"Let's go!"

I saw the jade calligraphy in his hand and did not understand.

"Why did you bring Miss Su along as well?"

As Xia Mingyuan placed Hierarch Liu-Li into his bag, he explained, "These few cases might be related to the prayers, I can't be sure. I have to get her to personally take a look."

I barely understood the situation he was talking about, but I knew that this wasn't the time to be wasting my time. I hastily followed him out the door.

Ji Yu had prepared the car early in the morning, so we went out and drove straight to the city center.

Captain Long was waiting outside the Jinyun Hotel in the center of the city. He was so anxious that he was like an ant on a hot pan, constantly stamping his feet.

"Captain, don't be in such a hurry. This isn't the first time we're handling a case like this. Look at how anxious you are …"

"Shut up!" Captain Long angrily turned around and scolded his subordinate.

How could these youngsters know that this matter was so special? If it was like usual, he would probably be as careless as they were. However, after being repeatedly emphasized by Master Xia last time, for some reason, his heart suddenly became uneasy.

Captain Long smoked most of the cigarettes at the door before finally seeing a familiar car appear in his line of sight.

"Miss Lin, you've finally arrived. "This is …"

Captain Long saw that there was a stranger in the car, and all the words he had originally wanted to say stuck in his throat.

"Captain, let me introduce him to you. This is my senior brother, he has been cultivating on the mountain and has never come down before." I was worried that I wouldn't be able to control the situation myself, so I got senior brother to help me.

We already knew that Captain Long would ask, and Xia Mingyuan had already told me all of this in the car to save himself the trouble of being exposed.

"So you're also Master Xia's disciple. That would be great, then the chances of winning are even greater."

Xia Ming could see that he was extremely anxious. Sweat covered his forehead, and he couldn't help but frown.

"Captain, please explain the situation to us two brothers and sisters first. We need to prepare."

Captain Long sighed and looked at the biggest hotel in the center of the city behind him.

"It's a murder case, and it's very strange. They're all women, and they're pretty pretty. They're in a miserable state now, this is the third one."

I looked at Captain Long in astonishment. There were already three murders, no wonder he was in such a hurry.

Xia Mingyuan worriedly spoke as he looked at the grievances lingering in the air.

"He's probably a tough nut to crack. His resentment won't disperse at all …"

Hearing Xia Mingyuan's words, Captain Long also looked up at the sky and realized that it was indeed a bit hazy. He didn't know if it was just an illusion created by what Xia Mingyuan had said.

"Shi …" Brother, are we going in directly? "

I almost blurted out 'Teacher'. Luckily, Xia Mingyuan turned around and gave me a faint look before hurriedly changing his words.

"No rush, Captain Long, are there any brothers from the police station inside?"

Captain Long nodded and gave us a rough idea at the door.

"There's a brother on the first floor's elevator and security exit. There are two people standing guard outside the room where the murder occurred. There are also several people working in the hotel's staff lounge. There are also three people in the control room."

"Can you be more specific? How many are there? "

Captain Long thought about the situation and resolutely said, "Fifteen!"

Xia Mingyuan took out a black compass from his bag, and began to walk forward, telling Captain Long as he walked, "Get everyone inside to withdraw. The brothers in the police station are too angry, he actually doesn't dare to show himself, all he has to do is pick a chicken to follow us."

Hearing this, Captain Long immediately gave the orders and also asked if there were any chickens among the guards.

Seeing that he was busy with his own things, he quickly walked to Xia Mingyuan's side.

"Teacher, why must it be a chicken? Do you even care about the Life Codex? "

Xia Mingyuan stared at the needle on the compass, and said without raising his head, "Chicken is a metal of the five elements, and this place is located at the middle south side of the compass. "Jinke Wood, it's not easy for chicken people to come in with us."

I thought about it for a moment. I didn't expect that there would be so many twists and turns in such a short period of time. It seemed that I still had a lot of things to learn.

The people from the police station slowly withdrew. When Xia Mingyuan and I were about to go in, we saw Captain Long anxiously walking in front of us with a face full of sweat.

"Forest..." "Miss Lin …"

I raised my hand to signal him to speak slowly.

"Miss Lin, something has happened. A colleague has not come out yet and has not been able to contact her."

Xia Mingyuan grabbed him, his strength must be pretty strong. I saw Captain Long's face twist.

"What's going on?"

Captain Long took a work pass from another colleague at the police station.

"It's her. Her name is Xi Xi. She's a new colleague from the Archives Department. She's a girl …"

As soon as I heard it was a girl, my scalp dropped and I knew it might have been an accident.

"Captain Long, wait a moment. Let's go in and take a look."

Captain Long grabbed my hand, and my eyes turned red.

"Miss Lin, please save her, she …" "She is different from the rest of us. She is the daughter of the city's leader. She originally came here to make the transition, but now …"

Captain Long hadn't finished, but Xia Mingyuan and I both understood what he meant.

"Captain Long, have you found Chicken's brother?"

Captain Long stomped his feet and said with determination, "Don't bother looking for me. It's just me. I'm just a chicken!"

Xia Mingyuan nodded his head. Actually, this type of police captain had a righteous attitude and was a great deterrent to ghosts.

We finally took Captain Long up the stairs, but Xia Mingyuan was still vigilantly watching the compass, not willing to let go of even a single glance.

"Miss Lin …" This is the 22nd floor, why don't we take the elevator? "

I looked at Xia Mingyuan and thought to myself, It's not like I made this decision, I also want to ask!

I didn't know how I should reply to Captain Long's questioning gaze. I could only pretend to be completely focused as I looked at the compass in Xia Mingyuan's hand.

"After all, the elevator can be guided by manpower. If we were to take the elevator, it is very likely that she would cause us to fall down when we reach the higher levels." When that time comes, instead of saving him, he will end up losing himself in the end! "

Xia Ming saw my predicament finally opened his mouth to help me explain, but it also eased the current awkwardness.
