Chapter 19 Markings
Qin Liu listened to Liu Haoyu’s words and fell into thought.
Coincidentally, Liu Haoyu’s fate also belonged to yin.
He could also become Gu Qianyang’s target…
Thinking of this, Qin Liu walked up to Liu Haoyu and placed her hand on his trench coat.
“Hmm?” Liu Haoyu was a little stunned by Qin Liu’s sudden action: “What are you doing?”
“Let me see.”
Saying that, Qin Liu tried to unbutton Liu Haoyu’s clothes.
“Wait, wait a moment!”
Liu Haoyu quickly retreated, putting distance between himself and Qin Liu.
“It’s not good to do this on the street, is it?”
“?”
Qin Liu silently gave a question mark.
“What are you thinking? I just want to see your chest.”
“???”
Liu Haoyu had more question marks above his head. He knew there were many male perverts, but this was his first time seeing a female pervert!
“Listen, let me see!”
Seeing Liu Haoyu still trying to resist, Qin Liu immediately grabbed his struggling hand and unceremoniously dragged him into the alley.
“Do you want to take it off yourself, or should I?”
Qin Liu’s gaze made Liu Haoyu feel uncomfortable all over.
He never expected Qin Liu to like this kind of play!
However… it’s not impossible.
Thinking of this, Liu Haoyu took off his upper clothes without a second word, then extended his hand and said to Qin Liu.
“Come on, you take yours off too.”
Qin Liu finally reacted at this moment. Her face darkened, and she punched the man’s head.
“What are you thinking? I just want to check if there’s a symbol like that on your chest.”
After hearing Qin Liu’s words, Liu Haoyu also reacted. He said with a wry smile.
“Then you should have explained it clearly…”
Qin Liu lifted Liu Haoyu’s clothes and couldn’t help but complain.
“That’s you overthinking it; don’t blame anyone.”
However, despite the banter, Qin Liu carefully examined Liu Haoyu’s chest.
Hmm…
This man still has a few abdominal muscles.
Qin Liu’s hand gently touched it, and the icy feeling made the latter tremble uncontrollably.
Fortunately, he quickly got used to Qin Liu’s touch and let the icy small hand wander on his chest.
After an unknown amount of time…
“What is it?”
Liu Haoyu couldn’t help but ask.
“What about it? Is there anything abnormal?”
“Ah… let me see again.”
Qin Liu’s words made Liu Haoyu fall silent.
After such a long time, where was this guy looking before?
At this moment, Liu Haoyu had reason to suspect that Qin Liu was taking advantage of him.
“There’s a mark…”
However, after a thorough examination, Qin Liu’s gaze became unusually solemn.
Although the mark on Liu Haoyu’s chest was faint, there was no doubt… he had also become Gu Qianyang’s target.
That old bastard…
Qin Liu’s eyes gradually turned cold, but she quickly adjusted her mood.
“You also have a symbol left by Gu Qianyang on your chest.”
Liu Haoyu was quite surprised to hear this result.
Qin Liu took out a pen and drew on Liu Haoyu’s chest.
Then, the hidden symbol was revealed. Seeing the eye-like symbol, Liu Haoyu was even more surprised.
He didn’t even notice that such a thing had appeared on his chest.
“When was it left?”
“It’s the Mirror Ghost’s ability. The moment you saw the mirror, you were probably marked.”
Qin Liu said as she continued to draw something on Liu Haoyu’s chest.
As time passed, the eye-like symbol on it gradually disappeared until it vanished.
After finishing it, Qin Liu stood up straight again.
“This way, there’s no problem for now,”
“But you should still be careful. If you see your reflection in a mirror, remember to come to me for another check…”
As she spoke, Qin Liu’s expression couldn’t help but turn like this (ᗜ‸ᗜ?).
“What’s touching me?”
“Cough cough…”
Liu Haoyu was a little awkward at this moment.
“It’s natural.”
Getting a reaction just from being touched could only be blamed on the overabundance of energy in an athlete.
Moreover, from that angle just now, he could clearly see Qin Liu’s two small hills. Could he still be considered a man if he could suppress a gun like that?
“Uwah… this person has no shame… Uwah…”
Qin Liu’s face showed a disgusted expression, but her body squatted down.
“Wait a moment.”
Liu Haoyu suddenly pressed Qin Liu’s head, stopping her action.
“What’s wrong?”
Qin Liu looked up, seeming a little strange as to why Liu Haoyu had interrupted her.
The latter didn’t say much, just opened his backpack and kicked the Black Book out of the alley.
“This is fine.”
“…Indeed.”
Ignoring the friendly greetings coming from the distance, the two began to resolve their marital disputes.

“The you you saw, the you you saw…”
Time came to 6:17 AM the next day.
Liu Haoyu, who was still in a sweet dream, was awakened by a harsh ringtone.
He squinted his eyes, felt for the mobile phone on the bedside table, and the screen displayed “Officer Wang.”
“Hello?”
Liu Haoyu’s voice sounded like he was still asleep. He got out of bed, turned off the speakerphone, and walked towards the door.
So as not to wake Qin Liu with his conversation with Officer Wang.
“What’s wrong, Officer Wang?”
“Brother Liu! I’ve found a clue!”
On the other end of the phone, Wang Wenqi’s voice was excited, but for some reason, it sounded a little tired. In the background, the occasional sound of keyboard typing and the rustling of paper could be heard.
“I’ve compiled all the information collected by the police force and the files in the police station, and have drawn a highly probable conclusion.”
“Gu Qianyang’s next target is very likely among these people!”
Hearing the other party’s excited voice, Liu Haoyu rubbed his temples and closed the door behind him.
“Don’t rush, take your time.”
“Where did you get this conclusion from?”
At this moment, Wang Wenqi forced himself to calm down. He took a deep breath and continued.
“I found ancient books about the Mirror Ghost.”
“According to the descriptions in the ancient books, the Mirror Ghost can only move within a thirty-kilometer radius through mirrors.”
“So, let’s assume the Mirror Ghost’s activity range is within this thirty kilometers.”
“Taking the supermarket ‘Haoduoduo’ in the south of the city and the abandoned factory as the centers…”
“Coupled with the clues collected by the Special Task Force last night…”
The sound of repeated clicking came from the other end of the phone, and then Wang Wenqi listed the names one by one.
“Lin Dongyang, 24 years old, nurse at the City Hospital…”
“Chen Zhiming, 37 years old, maintenance worker at the water plant…”
“…”
Liu Haoyu was listening carefully, and when he heard one of the names, all his sleepiness disappeared.
“Gu Wanxue? Why is there someone with the surname Gu?”
“Yes,” Wang Wenqi lowered his voice: “According to the information, this Gu Wanxue should also be a remnant of the Gu family’s bloodline.”
