C1014 Timely
Zhou Yi and the others approached Liang Yuan.
However, when they arrived at the place Liang Yuan pointed to, they didn't even see a shadow.
"Are you sure you saw it just now?" Zhou Yi looked at the empty corridor, then turned around to look at Liang Yuan.
Liang Yuan grabbed Zhou Yi's arm, and after hearing his words, he carefully opened his eyes. Then, his eyes suddenly grew big as he looked at the no corridor with a look of surprise and then said: "I just saw that shadow running here, how come it's gone?"
"Is there something wrong with your eyes?" Wen Zhou snapped open his fan, covering his face as he mocked.
"Young Master, my eyes are fine!" Liang Yuan recovered from the shock and shouted while patting his chest.
Zhou Yi was too lazy to listen to the argument between the two of them. He first quietly avoided Liang Yuan's hand and then brought Wang Chuan and the others back to the morgue.
"Keep the corpse first. There are some things I haven't figured out yet, and you should sleep. It's nothing special. If you have a dream, call me. I'll be faster than you." Zhou Yi's expression did not look good.
All these years, Demonic Cultivator had been doing a lot of things in the dark, especially with the Boss behind the scenes. He had been hiding abroad, so he didn't know what his real purpose was.
Thinking about it, Zhou Yi felt like he was going crazy.
"Alright, rest assured!" Jiang Huan nodded and replied.
After that, Zhou Yi led them away. His mind was in a mess. He had to grab onto the thread that he had wanted to grab before, in order to follow the vines and find the real target.
Thinking about all the troubles that had happened over the years, if Zhou Yi could see the other party now, he definitely wouldn't want to stop for a minute and rip him apart with his bare hands.
Thus, he carefully thought back to the corpses he had encountered before. His heart, kidney, and ears. Today's corpses didn't have anything missing, but these things still felt somewhat familiar.
However, he was not sure where he had seen it before.
Some of them wandered on the street for half an hour before finally returning to Zhou Yi's house.
"Alright, all of you can go back. If you have anything to say, please contact us by phone!" Zhou Yi turned around and gave some instructions. Then, he turned around and pushed the door open and walked in.
"..."
It was a quiet night. The sky was covered by dark clouds, and not a single spot of light could be seen.
There was not a single person on the dark street. However, after a while, the sound of footsteps could be heard in the distance.
The footsteps went from slow to fast, but it had only been two minutes.
In the end, the owner of the footsteps began to run in panic. The rain that had accumulated on the ground for the first time was immediately trampled by the owner of the large feet until it splashed in all directions.
"Don't, don't come over, don't come over!" The owner of the big foot kept looking behind him as he ran, as if there was a monster chasing after him.
After that, the man fell to the ground with one unsteady step as he let out a stuffy groan.
However, he didn't care about the pain in his body. He quickly got up and continued to run. There seemed to be some light ahead. If he ran fast, perhaps he could reach the place where the light came from and be saved.
The man saw hope and limped forward regardless of his bleeding knee.
"Hurry, hurry, I must run over, definitely!" The man muttered as he quickly ran forward.
Beads of sweat the size of beans were dripping down his forehead and his entire body was as if it had been washed by water.
But the desire to live had long since dulled everything, including pain.
However, when he was only a few meters away from the light, a figure suddenly appeared in front of it, blocking the light completely.
The street had once again turned pitch black, and all hope seemed to have disappeared at this moment.2
Jiang Huan didn't know why, but he suddenly appeared on a familiar street. He kept looking around and the uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense. He must be a cultivator.
There might be new cases here. He wanted to wake up now, but he couldn't.
If he couldn't do it, he could only continue forward. Perhaps he could encounter the murderer's murder, and if he was lucky, he could save the victim.
Thinking of this, Jiang Huan quickened his pace.
But no matter how he walked, the speed under his feet could not be raised up. It was just like a normal pace.
In the distance, he saw a figure quickly running forward.
From the looks of it, he was a middle-aged man in his forties. The clothes he wore made him look like a migrant worker. He was currently running forward in a flustered manner.
As he ran, he kept looking back.
Jiang Huan reached out his hand and opened his mouth, wanting to tell him to slow down and be careful of the bad guys in front of him, but no sound came out from his throat. He could only hope that he could be faster and catch up with the people in front of him and tell him that it was dangerous.
However, at that moment, the person who was running crazily suddenly stopped. He stared blankly at the shadow in front of him, and the shadow seemed to be holding something in its hand.
"Danger!" Jiang Huan shouted.
With the fall of his shout, he suddenly woke up. The first second after he woke up, he even saw the cold and sticky eyes of the shadow that looked at him, just like a poisonous snake.
There was not a single exposed spot on the shadow's body, but the pair of eyes could clearly be seen.
Jiang Huan's heart thumped a few times. Before his heartbeat returned to normal, he had already put on his shoes and got off the ground. He called Zhou Yi while walking out.
With a ring, the phone was picked up: "Mr. Zhou, the intersection between Fifth Ring Road and South Sky Road is 200 meters away."
"Alright, I understand!" Zhou Yi answered and then hung up.
Zhou Yi got off the bed quietly and waved his hand. A pitch black vortex appeared in front of him. Without saying anything, Zhou Yi directly walked into it.
When he came out, it was exactly the place Jiang Huan had mentioned.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed in front of Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi raised his hand and a stream of energy shot out and struck the black shadow.
With an explosive bang, Zhou Yi heard a muffled groan coming from the black shadow. Then, the black shadow actually slowly disappeared on the spot.
Zhou Yi raised his foot and walked forward. In the alley near the trash can, he saw a black shadow that was curling up on the ground.
The black shadow was still shivering and muttering something. Zhou Yi shot out a green ray of energy and enveloped the person within it. Then, that dream-like voice slowly disappeared.
"Mr. Zhou, is that you?" Jiang Huan's voice came from afar.
Zhou Yi turned around and glanced at him, then said, "He came in time. Nothing will happen to him. That killer met with me face to face. He must have been injured by me!"
However, just as Zhou Yi finished his sentence, the figure on the ground suddenly exploded...
