Chapter 91: The Little One is Very Cute
Wang Wenqi looked at the piece of black jade, as dark as ink, and fell into deep thought.
He knew the origin of this jade.
This was the ghost jade used by Old Deng. Normally, this jade was red all over, but now it had been completely dyed black.
This meant that it had once subdued a very strong fierce ghost.
And Wang Wenqi knew only one person who could use this red jade.
That was Old Deng.
But Old Deng was no longer a ghost exorcist and had retired to the second line, making it impossible for him to come out and catch ghosts.
So the owner of this red jade might be someone else…
“Team Leader, I guess Liu Haoyu cleared this up.”
“This is the most likely possibility.”
Wang Wenqi was not stupid. If he couldn’t analyze such an obvious matter, he shouldn’t be a police officer.
Although there was no evidence, Wang Wenqi felt that Liu Haoyu was the most likely candidate.
The haunted house had been cleared, but the red gate clearly could not be dealt with so easily.
However, even so, Wang Wenqi couldn’t help but feel a trace of shock at Liu Haoyu’s strength.
This person not only escaped from the grim haunted house completely unharmed, but also had a direct confrontation with the red gate. Such powerful strength was not much worse than Old Deng.
What was even more terrifying was that he was still very young and had greater room for growth in the future.
If we were to follow the narrative of some novels.
It would mean that this young man was terrifyingly powerful.
“Team Leader…” Xiong Ying said, “What should we do now?”
“…”
Wang Wenqi looked at the haunted house in front of him without speaking.
It was clearly impossible for them alone to deal with this red gate.
And if they wanted to transfer people from other jurisdictions for support, it would not only be troublesome but also require a lot of coordination time.
In such a long time, who knew how many major news stories the red gate would create.
Moreover, not many people could be dispatched from other jurisdictions.
So the best solution now was to notify the superiors for assistance on one hand, and to seek help from the public on the other.
As for Old Deng, Wang Wenqi knew very well that the old man’s health and abilities were far from what they used to be, and he was definitely not as strong as Liu Haoyu.
“Should we inform Old Deng about this?”
Since Li Rongjun had seen the red gate, regardless of the reason, the seal of the red gate must have had a problem.
If no action was taken, something would happen sooner or later.
Facing Xiong Ying’s question, Wang Wenqi was quite troubled.
This matter had to be reported to Old Deng, but he also had to find a way to win over Liu Haoyu.
Here, Wang Wenqi couldn’t help but ask Xiong Ying.
“What do you think is the probability that Old Deng will make Liu Haoyu the leader of the special task force?”
“Less than ten percent.”
Xiong Ying, with his square face, looked very resolute. He thought the same as Wang Wenqi.
Neither of them thought Old Deng would let him go.
“Yes… So what should we do?”
Wang Wenqi sighed wistfully, then continued.
“We’ll have to make long-term plans for this matter. First, let’s try to contact Liu Haoyu… He is definitely a ghost exorcist, there’s no doubt about that.”
Although there was no evidence, Wang Wenqi was very sure that Liu Haoyu had driven away the red gate.
———-
On the other side, Liu Haoyu was driving his motorcycle, sending Bai Anting to Deng Xiaolin’s house.
It was now 10:30 PM, and the folk custom shop had long been closed.
But this was not a problem, because Liu Haoyu had the key to enter.
He opened the back door of the shop.
“Come in.”
“Ah… okay.”
Bai Anting nodded dazedly.
After calming down, she felt a little lost.
She really couldn’t imagine that she would go home with a man she had only met twice.
Even though he repeatedly emphasized that this was not his home.
But since he had the key, whose home could it be if not his?
However, Bai Anting wouldn’t think of anything bad.
After all, even as a last resort, if this killer really wanted to do something to her, he wouldn’t have waited until now to make a move.
“I don’t know your name yet.”
Bai Anting tried to get closer to this killer.
“I can’t keep calling you Mr. Killer, can I?”
“Let me repeat, I am not a killer.”
“Then tell me your name.”
“…”
Seeing Bai Anting’s persistence, Liu Haoyu could only sigh, then took off the gas mask on his face.
When Bai Anting saw Liu Haoyu’s face, she was stunned.
So… so young!
Because Liu Haoyu gave off a very mature and profound impression, Bai Anting had always thought he was a middle-aged uncle in his mid-thirties.
But when he took off the mask… Oh my god.
He didn’t look much older than herself!
Apart from his mental state comparable to that of a contemporary college student, he was actually quite handsome.
“Liu Haoyu.”
After putting the axe and the gas mask back into his backpack, Liu Haoyu left his name and walked forward.
“Wait for me!”
Bai Anting quickly followed behind him. Of course, the sound of the two of them entering the house was heard by Deng Xiaolin inside.
The young girl walked out of her room wearing pajamas and said.
“Hao-ge! Why didn’t you say you were coming…”
Before Deng Xiaolin could finish speaking, she saw someone following behind Liu Haoyu.
After being stunned for a moment, she let out a shocked and confused voice.
“Huh?”
What’s going on?
Hao-ge brought someone home?
And she discovered it?
Seeing Deng Xiaolin lost in a brainstorm, Liu Haoyu stepped forward and hit her forehead with a karate chop.
“She’s just a poor kid targeted by a fierce ghost. I brought her here to stay for a week to avoid the limelight. Don’t overthink it.”
Hearing Liu Haoyu’s words, Deng Xiaolin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead and laughed.
“Right, right, after all, Hao-ge doesn’t look like he likes boys.”
“…”
“…”
“…?”
Deng Xiaolin looked at the silent Liu Haoyu and the black-faced Bai Anting, and said somewhat confusedly, “Uh… did I say something wrong? Or are you two really…”
“I’m a girl! I’m a girl!!”
The string in Bai Anting’s mind completely snapped.
It was one thing to be mistaken for a boy by a man, but why was she mistaken for a boy by a girl?!
Is it just because of flat chest!
But she still had so many female characteristics, how could she look like a boy?!
“Oh, this?” Deng Xiaolin confirmed again, scanning up and down, and still shook her head: “Doesn’t look like it.”
Bai Anting’s face darkened even more. She grabbed Deng Xiaolin and pulled her towards the nearby bathroom.
“Hey, hey, hey?! Hao-ge, save me…”
Before Deng Xiaolin could call for help from Liu Haoyu, she was pulled into the bathroom by Bai Anting, who was furious.
After a brief commotion inside, Deng Xiaolin walked out of the bathroom.
At this moment, she looked as if the sky had fallen, and she was somewhat questioning life.
But in the end, her eyes held a trace of sympathy and pity, and she couldn’t help but pat Bai Anting’s shoulder.
“It’s okay, being flat-chested is a rare resource, right Hao-ge? You think so too, right?”
Deng Xiaolin threw this remark to Liu Haoyu.
And the man gave a thumbs-up.
“It’s okay, brother, the little one is very cute too.”
