Chapter 5: Didn’t You Hear Everything?
“Are you done?”
Qin Liu said to Liu Haoyu, who was lying on the sofa like a dead fish.
“You should help me clean up…”
However, Liu Haoyu only slowly raised one hand in response to Qin Liu’s words, trembling like a squeezed-out cow.
“Look at my condition… can I move?”
Liu Haoyu was also desperate. He just wanted to rest, but unexpectedly, he was possessed by a ghost.
“Well~ didn’t you say it was quite enjoyable?”
“At first, it was.”
Liu Haoyu didn’t finish, because the subsequent memories were too tragic, as if his brain had selectively forgotten them.
“And I was the one doing all the moving.”
“Hard work, hard work…”
Liu Haoyu was truly out of strength.
He lay on the sofa for a long time before sitting up and saying.
“Aren’t you going to change your clothes?”
At this moment, Qin Liu was practically naked… no, she was still wearing something.
Yes, white stockings.
“That’s true,”
Qin Liu nodded, took off the ripped stockings, and then put on the JK sailor uniform that Liu Haoyu threw over.
“After all, we don’t know when Deng Xiaolin will be back.”
After Qin Liu was dressed, Liu Haoyu looked appreciative.
“Then there should be no problem.”
“Yes, it should be fine. The room’s ventilation also passed, so I don’t think there will be any lingering smell.”
“Then it’s time to take a bath, the smell on me hasn’t been dealt with yet.”
“Okay.”
Qin Liu, with a satisfied smile, invited Liu Haoyu.
“Shall we wash together?”
“Of course, no problem.”
The two of them walked out of the living room talking and laughing, arriving outside in the corridor.
But before Liu Haoyu could finish speaking, a flippant voice sounded in their ears.
“Oh? Oh my, finally finished?”
Hearing this voice, Qin Liu immediately looked back and saw Youtan leaning against the wall, holding a black book, seemingly teasing the two.
“You you youtan? What are you doing here?”
Not only Qin Liu, but even Liu Haoyu didn’t expect Youtan to be in the corridor outside the living room.
At this moment, Qin Liu’s small face was as red as an apple, looking very flustered.
“What am I doing…” Youtan closed the black book, a little surprised by Qin Liu’s question. “What else can I do but pass the time?”
Liu Haoyu already had a bad feeling, but he still braced himself and asked.
“Why are you passing the time?”
“Oh…” seems that Youtan also understood what they meant. She had a playful smile on her face. “Of course, it’s because… I couldn’t bear to interrupt your world of two. Wouldn’t it be awkward if I opened the door and came in?”
At these words, Liu Haoyu and Qin Liu were stunned.
Especially Qin Liu, she now wished she could dig a hole on the spot and bury herself!
“You… you mean, could it be…”
Qin Liu stammered for a long time but couldn’t utter a word.
“Ah~ you two are truly blessed, it’s truly enviable.”
“So when,”
Looking at Youtan who was playfully teasing her, Qin Liu couldn’t hold it in anymore.
“When did you come over!”
“Ah ah~ let me think about it,” Youtan thought seriously before answering, “Probably around the time you said, ‘Let me help you relax’?”
Qin Liu’s heart pounded three times, and these words completely broke her defense.
“Then it was from the beginning!!!!!”
The girl’s tragic cry resounded through the sky, almost causing this antique shop to collapse.
“Well, well…”
Not long after, in the living room, Youtan crossed her legs and looked at Qin Liu, whose soul was almost floating out after being burned to ashes, and said.
“It’s clearly me who was being considerate of you,”
“After all, lovers, I understand that kind of thing,”
“But it’s in the living room, you really shouldn’t have gone that far, right?”
“But the young man’s stamina is quite good, three rounds in a row, three times.”
Qin Liu finally recovered from Youtan’s teasing and said angrily.
“Say what you have to say, and do what you have to do.”
Instead of recovering, she seemed to be getting angry.
If it weren’t for Liu Haoyu being there, and Youtan being one of the leaders of the Underworld, Qin Liu would have even considered killing her to silence her.
“But honestly, your reactions aren’t that exaggerated. After all, when I was a book before, I basically saw everything I should and shouldn’t have seen…”
Before Youtan finished speaking, she suddenly felt two cold gazes.
She opened her eyes and looked closely, only to find that the couple opposite her had taken out an axe and a lantern respectively, their gazes as if they wanted to devour her alive.
“Cough cough!”
Feeling a death threat, Youtan wisely shut her mouth and turned to serious matters.
“Compared to this, I have a very important piece of information to find you two… So can you put down the murder weapons in your hands?”
Seeing Youtan choose to yield, the two of them put away their murder weapons in unison.
Liu Haoyu returned to his normal self and asked.
“What information? Tell us.”
“What else could it be but information about Gu Qianyang?”
————————
Time came to a week later.
In the old industrial district of Jiangliu City.
Rain washed over the tin roofs of abandoned factories, making continuous drumming sounds.
A criminal police officer stood within the cordon, rain dripping down his black trench coat, forming a small puddle at his feet.
He took a deep breath, the humid air mixed with the smell of rust and a sweet, indescribable scent.
“Captain Ke, you’d better come and see this.”
The young police officer jogged over, his face pale, his voice trembling slightly.
“Alright.”
The criminal police officer followed the young officer.
The evening breeze blew his ID card in front of his chest.
Captain Ke, whose full name is Ke Wen, is 34 years old and the captain of the criminal police detachment of the Jiangliu City Public Security Bureau.
Led by the young officer, Ke Wen walked through the disorderly piles of abandoned machinery and arrived deep inside the factory.
Several lone temporary lights illuminated the central area with a pale light, and there, Ke Wen saw the victim.
An adult male, now hanging like cured meat on a rusty iron frame, with his arms spread in a cross shape.
His wrists and ankles were all pierced by thick peach wood nails.
What was even more nauseating was that the deceased’s chest was neatly cut open, and the skin was rolled to both sides, forming a hollow-like shape.
And in the opening of this cavity, there seemed to be a complex symbol carved.
It looked like some kind of sorcery, or like a moving eye?
The young officer swallowed his saliva, a little scared, and said.
“Captain Ke, you feel it too, right? The symbol on the deceased’s chest… it seems to be moving…”
