The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity Chapter 93 - 90: Capturing the Culprit but Encountering an E
"Captain Huo, the proprietress has a problem, she is lying."
The team’s psychological expert found Huo Xun and said this to him.
Both the boss and the proprietress claid they knew nothing about the human at buns, but according to the psychological expert’s observation, the boss genuinely didn’t know, while the proprietress’s evasive eyes evidently showed she was hiding sothing.
Huo Xun thought for a while and told the police to withdraw.
The police cars siren sounded as they left, turning at the end of the street, then stopped.
"You guys go back, leave three people to stake out with ."
He had deliberately ordered a withdrawal before, then returned to tail.
Since the proprietress was lying, it was very likely she was related to the murderer. Today, after the police visited, the proprietress would definitely try to contact the murderer.
"Rember to monitor their two cell phone numbers."
"Okay."
The police car drove away, and Qin Zhao, Huo Xun, and three other officers stayed behind.
Dressed in plain clothes, they arrived near the bun shop and spread out to monitor the area.
anwhile, Qin Zhao read the fortunes for the proprietress along with Huo Xun.
"It indeed relates to her."
"The buns they made, her husband didn’t see the finger, but she couldn’t have missed it. I don’t know what relationship this killer has with her that she would cover for him like this."
Huo Xun thought for a second that perhaps turning human flesh into buns was ant to help the murderer dispose of the body.
If the finger hadn’t been discovered in the bun, no one would have found out.
They staked out the place all afternoon, and the police who went back sent a ssage to Huo Xun.
The proprietress’s cell phone had repeatedly contacted a number after they left, but that number had not picked up the calls, which was definitely suspicious.
Soon after receiving the ssage, Qin Zhao noticed the proprietress anxiously peering out of the window.
With an anxious look on her face, after glancing around a few tis, she put on a sun hat with a cloth curtain and rode out on an electric scooter.
Huo Xun and the others quickly followed her, only to find she had headed to the suburban countryside.
As it got darker, there were hardly any vehicles on the suburban roads.
The proprietress quickly realized she was being followed and deliberately drove around the suburb. Once Huo Xun noticed, he ordered the car to move up and forced her to stop.
"Officer, that matter really has nothing to do with , why are you following ?"
"If it has nothing to do with you, why are you panicking?"
Huo Xun sneered coldly, "The finger was found in your shop. If we can’t find the murderer, you and your husband better prepare for jail, possible even the death penalty!"
The color drained from the proprietress’s face as she leaned on her electric scooter.
"If I’m not mistaken, you were probably going to that pig farm that supplies your pork right?
Your husband said the pig farm is in Cuishicun, and you were initially heading towards Cuishicun. Did you buy human at from there?"
"I, I..."
The proprietress faltered, "I went to get at, for tomorrow’s buns."
"Your shop has already been implicated in a case, and you dare sell buns? Your son is still in college, if you and your husband go to prison, no one will be able to pay his tuition, have you thought about your son?
You’d better confess honestly; only if we catch the murderer can you and your husband be safe."
ntion of their college-going son finally made the proprietress grit her teeth and tell them.
"Fine, I’ll tell you!"
With a mournful face, she said, "I just wanted to help Hui Ying, I didn’t kill anyone, she did. The owner of the pig farm is her husband, he always beat her, almost killed her before she killed him!
I think what she did was right, she was a pitiful person. I just wanted to turn the body into pork buns and sell them, nobody could tell the difference anyway, this way Hui Ying wouldn’t get caught."
"Is this Hui Ying still at the pig farm?"
"I don’t know, I called her, but no one answered."
"You take us to the pig farm now, just say we’re custors looking to buy pork."
"Okay." The proprietress hesitated for a mont, then asked, "If Hui Ying gets caught, will my husband and I be okay? Also, how long will she be sentenced?"
"It depends on the situation, you lead us there first."
The proprietress didn’t ask further and could only ride her electric scooter ahead to lead the way.
By the ti they reached Cuishicun, it was a little after eight at night, and the sky had completely darkened.
The pig farm was utterly silent.
The car stopped outside the pig farm, and Qin Zhao imdiately felt a heavy yin energy.
Not just yin energy, but also the Blood Evil Qi.
Blood Evil Qi generally clings to bloodstained humans and ghosts, but in this place, the Blood Evil Qi was exceptionally dense, dense enough that one could see a layer of red light enveloping the rooftops even in the dark of night.
In the terms of a Heavenly Master, this place was truly a site of great misfortune!
There must be a powerful Evil Object hidden here.
Qin Zhao had encountered her share of murderers, but she had never seen such intense Blood Evil Qi.
Her expression turned sowhat grave, and before they went in, she warned Huo Xun and the others, "Be careful in there."
Seeing her expression, Huo Xun’s heart tensed up.
The proprietress glanced at them before heading towards the building of the pig farm.
The pig farm was large, with blue-roofed sheds on both sides, all filled with pigs.
In the middle was a road leading to the owner’s residence, where a dim light shone at the entrance.
The proprietress stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Hui Ying, I’ve brought so guests from the city. They run a barbecue restaurant and need a lot of pork, and they’d like to buy from you."
After several knocks, faint sounds finally ca from inside.
Chen Huaying opened the door but only exposed her face, which bore several bruises, clearly inflicted by soone; her cheeks were gaunt, and she looked haggard.
"So many of you, why co so late?"
Her voice was very soft, almost too quiet to clearly make out what she was saying.
The proprietress laughed awkwardly, "We were busy during the day, only just got free now."
"Co in and talk."
She opened the door wider and let them in.
"It’s quite a trip from the city, have you all eaten dinner? I just happened to have stewed so at, would you like so?"
Upon hearing this, and thinking of the human at buns from the baozi shop, everyone looked rather uneasy.
Huo Xun wanted to see if there was anything amiss with her stewed at, so he said, "We haven’t eaten yet, maybe we should try so?"
Chen Huaying’s lips curled into a smile as she stared intently at Huo Xun, remaining silent for a long while.
Huo Xun felt a chill down his spine and felt goosebumps all over.
Finally, she diverted her gaze, "Alright, have a seat for a bit, I’ll get it for you."
Once Chen Huaying left, Huo Xun couldn’t help but move closer to Qin Zhao, whispering, "She’s really weird. She’s just a frail woman, but I feel she’s very dangerous. Her look gave the creeps."
He was the captain of the Criminal Police Team, had even been an Interpol officer, and a national champion in Sanda; he had never felt like this with any fierce criminal or murderer.
Thinking of Chen Huaying’s gaze, Qin Zhao stared at Huo Xun for a while, then said aningfully, "You might have caught her attention."
"Caught her attention? She’s the one who’s been caught, right?"
Suddenly, Qin Zhao blurted out sothing that made Huo Xun shudder, "She is not Chen Huaying."
"What, what does that an?"
At that mont, Chen Huaying ca out with a large basin, the fragrance of at wafting through the room.
"Take a seat, don’t be shy with . We might not have much, but we do have plenty of at. Helping yourselves won’t be a problem."
Everyone sat down, and Chen Huaying brought them bowls, chopsticks, and so stead rice.
Chen Huaying sat next to Huo Xun, suddenly reached out and touched his arm, feeling the firm muscles through his police uniform.
She couldn’t help but remark, "Mr. Huo, you must have a great physique, right? And such a handso face."
Huo Xun: "???"
He knew he was attractive, but so what? What does this murderer want?!
Thinking back to Qin Zhao’s words, Huo Xun felt an icy chill; this murderous old woman couldn’t possibly have taken a liking to this jewel of the police force, could she?
Just as he finished this thought, he heard Chen Huaying mutter, "He’d be perfect for ."
Huo Xun: "!!!"
He turned to look at her, only to see Chen Huaying’s mouth curved into a strange smile, staring intently at him, a bizarre red light flickering deep within her dark eyes.
