How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?! Chapter 199 - 199 199 Clash of the Two Great Detectives

199: Chapter 199 Clash of the Two Great Detectives 199: Chapter 199 Clash of the Two Great Detectives Got off the car, and started up the mountain path.

Lin Xiaosu and Zhou i arrived at the murder scene.

This place is near Feiyu Mouth, a mountain road that county tourists generally don’t visit, but local residents often take this shortcut.

The person who died on this road was a local resident.

The scene originally had police tape around it, but now the tape has been removed.

A policeman standing guard by the roadside told Zhou i, “Chief Zhang and the provincial leadership are up there.”

Zhou i said, “The tape is removed, has the investigation been completed?”

“Yes, that Jiangcheng’s First Detective demonstrated his divine tracking skill at the scene.

You should have seen it yourself, it was magical.”

Zhou i cast her gaze towards Lin Xiaosu.

Lin Xiaosu stared at the cri scene, his eyes looking a bit empty from this angle…

Was he shaken by the title of Jiangcheng’s First Detective?

This was Zhou i’s inner thought…

Lin Xiaosu slowly revealed a smile, “How magical was it?”

The policeman said, “If you follow now, you might still catch a glimpse of it.”

This policeman knew Lin Xiaosu.

The Fengcheng police generally had a good relationship with Lin Xiaosu and were tolerant of him on non-principle matters.

At this ti, the provincial leadership finished the investigation with Jiangcheng’s First Detective below, and as the investigation was complete, the guard was lifted.

As long as you don’t step onto the road marked with small yellow flags, you can walk freely anywhere else.

Lin Xiaosu and Zhou i walked on the normal path.

The road marked with small yellow flags is actually a field, which ans the escape route of the fierce beast found by Jiangcheng’s First Detective wasn’t a proper road but a path through the field.

“From your detective’s perspective, are the yellow flags placed correctly?” Zhou i quietly asked.

“Absolutely correct!” Lin Xiaosu said.

“So, Jiangcheng’s First Detective lives up to his na?”

“Of course!” Lin Xiaosu smiled, “He charges at least 200,000 as his commission, how can he get such high fees without real skills?”

Zhou i frowned, “Are you suddenly talking about money now?

Are you trying to tell that you plan to charge though I asked you to co?”

“That’s a bit sensitive.

I’ve helped you with cases more than once or twice.”

Zhou i frowned even tighter, “Are you planning to tally up the total bill?”

“…”

The words stuck in Lin Xiaosu’s throat…

Because he saw a group of people ahead and a scene of magical tracking…

On the slope ahead, there were four people.

Criminal Investigation Team’s Chief Zhang Dadu.

A middle-aged man in a police uniform with three stars on his shoulder, more than Chief Zhang’s, clearly the provincial leader.

A middle-aged man dressed in white like snow, elegant and scholarly, whom he had seen once in Jiangcheng, Jiangcheng’s First Detective He Jiang.

And a female police officer beside them responsible for taking photos.

Chief Zhang seed a bit different than before.

His movents were visibly more agile and graceful.

He had undergone genetic transformation surgery.

After successful genetic transformation, he had a completely new form.

But Lin Xiaosu’s eyes did not stay on his old acquaintance but focused on Jiangcheng’s First Detective He Jiang.

Because He Jiang was performing a sowhat magical tracking technique.

He had a small spray bottle in his hand.

When sprayed opposite, a faint blue glowing footprint appeared on the ground.

At this distance, Lin could clearly see the footprint through his Heavenly Tao Wisdom Eye.

This was a very peculiar footprint.

Specifically, it was a paw print.

Four toes landed, the edges of the paw appeared very sharp.

Zhou i’s eyesight was much worse; she could only see the spraying action on the opposite slope but not the blue glowing paw print: “You’re also an expert in tracking techniques.

Do you know what this spray bottle does?”

“It contains a solution that reveals footprints.”

“Fluorescent reactions in a darkroom exist, but outdoors…

even under the sun?” Zhou i asked.

“That’s why he’s the First Detective!

It’s his tool of trade.”

“Hey, what’s your tool of trade then?” Zhou i’s gaze shifted slightly.

“Face!” Lin Xiaosu said, “I didn’t realize before, but now I suddenly found out I could actually make a living with my face…”

“Get lost!

Shaless!” Zhou i showed no leniency towards him.

The tracking ahead went smoothly.

The fluorescent paw prints revealed under the spray bottle ford a clear path leading up the mountain.

At the top of the mountain, there was a stone tower.

This stone tower was the origin of the na Old Tashan.

Why is Old Tashan called Old Tashan?

Because there is a very old stone tower here.

The stone tower’s dynasty of construction is unknown, with various legends.

So say it was a tower for avoiding war a thousand years ago.

So say this place was an ancient kingdom, and the tower was used for old kingdom rituals.

Speaking of the ancient kingdom, many find it laughable; can a small county town be called a kingdom?

But in the era of feudal wars, a small county might hold the title of “kingdom”; so might even ascend the throne in the village square…

However, there are no docunted records.

No stone inscriptions or carvings.

With the eroding millennia, the stone tower gradually beca a haphazardly stacked stone cave.

The footprints pointed all the way to the ancient tower.

Until the last footprint appeared at the stone tower… more precisely, at the entrance of the stone cave.

All four were stunned.

They were all industry elites.

Based on the forensic results, He Jiang clearly judged the killer was a beast.

At the cri scene, he found this special paw print.

This paw print confird his judgnt.

Because this paw print perfectly matched the wounds on the deceased’s neck.

At this point, it’s essentially confird that the owner of this paw print is the true culprit.

But which animal left this paw print?

Everyone’s mind was in turmoil; none of the animals they knew or had docunted matched, thus He Jiang said it was an exotic beast.

The chain of exotic beast cases was clear by now, with no dispute.

Now, from the cri scene to this stone tower, the paw prints provided a precise guide, leading everyone to the conclusion: the exotic beast entered the stone cave.

Chief Zhang’s gaze narrowed, fixed on the inner side of the stone cave.

Inside the stone cave, there was nothing, but where the paw prints disappeared, there was a crack.

The crack was naturally ford, leading to an unknown space.

The crack was only about one or two feet wide, not wide enough for a person to enter, but the exotic beast could…

“The case solving process is complete!” He Jiang put away the spray bottle, “Next, we face a decision, whether to blow open the stone cave.”

Chief Zhang frowned, “This ancient tower is a historical relic, blowing it up seems inappropriate.”

The provincial leader said, “There are no docunted records or artifact classification for this stone tower, thus it isn’t considered a protectable historical relic.

Knowing that a deadly fierce beast is hiding in it, we must blow it up!

Prepare the explosives.”

Chief Zhang was slightly startled, “Director Li, this requires consulting the county leadership.”

“Consulting county leadership, who in turn need to consult provincial leadership; by the ti all consultations are done, it’ll be too late!” Director Li said, “Chief Zhang, don’t forget we are the people’s police, prioritizing the people!

When people’s safety is threatened, we must act decisively!

Prepare the explosives!”

The atmosphere was becoming tense.

Chief Zhang was a local.

He knew although the stone tower wasn’t officially recognized as an artifact, it was considered a historical relic by all the county residents.

Everyone in the county knew Old Tashan, and its high significance was due to this tower.

However, he couldn’t refute the leader’s words as they were correct.

When people’s lives are threatened, decisive actions must be taken.

Even if the tower isn’t an artifact, what’s the big deal?

Prioritize people’s lives; if a child’s head is stuck in the Forbidden City’s fence, it could be dismantled…

At this mont, a voice suddenly arrived, “This leader is sowhat rash.”

Everyone turned around simultaneously.

Two people appeared behind them, Lin Xiaosu and Zhou i, of course.

Chief Zhang’s eyes brightened as he recognized Lin Xiaosu.

He Jiang’s gaze was peculiar as he stared at Lin Xiaosu.

Director Li’s face turned gloomy, “Who are you?”

“Leader, he is Lin Xiaosu, a detective from Fengcheng Detective Agency,” Zhou i said.

“A detective?

He isn’t part of the police force, who allowed him in?” Director Li’s gaze was stern.

Zhou i’s heart sank…

Today she asked Lin Xiaosu over without anyone’s authorization.

She wasn’t specifically asking Lin Xiaosu to handle the case either.

She just made up an excuse to invite him out.

After he got in the car, she spontaneously ntioned the case, leading to the current situation.

Strictly speaking, she acted against regulations.

Is the leader going to hold her responsible?

Chief Zhang said, “Director Li, I invited him over.

Detective Lin has cooperated with the police multiple tis, solving various strange cases, including the 5.16 major case, cracked by him.

So I thought he might contribute to this case and asked Officer Zhou to invite him.”

If Zhou i had acted on her own, Director Li wouldn’t be so courteous.

But Chief Zhang stood out, taking the responsibility.

Director Li must show so respect to Chief Zhang, his gaze shifted from Lin Xiaosu’s face, and he lightly waved his hand, “The investigation chain has finished, we don’t need him, let him go!”

Lin Xiaosu gently smiled, “If the investigation chain is indeed complete, I would leave as per the leader’s request.

But leader, the investigation chain has not ended, and you are even heading into a mistaken direction!”

Everyone was startled simultaneously.

Chief Zhang stepped forward, “Little Su, what have you discovered?”

Lin Xiaosu said, “The true killer did not enter the stone cave.”

“Not entered the stone cave?” Chief Zhang frowned deeply…

He Jiang slowly raised his gaze, as if he were truly facing Lin Xiaosu for the first ti, “Detective Lin, is it?

Nice to et you, I am He Jiang from Jiangcheng Detective Agency.”

“I know you, known as Jiangcheng’s First Detective!” Lin Xiaosu said.
