Chapter 441: The Gates of Hell
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Is it these two people?” Zhou Ze asked.
The scene of the two bodies in the room was a little scary and exaggerated. It was not a simple murder. It was deliberately orchestrated. It can be seen based on the killing, the killer was venting some of his emotions.
Fortunately, this was not Tongcheng. It was way past Su Province. Zhang Yanfeng, as the representative of the Tongcheng police station, could let out a long sigh of relief.
There have been too many major criminal cases in Tongcheng recently. It would be unbearable for another case to appear. The outside world would still think that Tongcheng was a dragon’s den. How could there always be major cases and dead people?
“Yes, I can’t be wrong. These two people drank with me after I came out of the detention center.” The Old Daoist confirmed affirmatively.
The two human traffickers who kidnapped Little Loli died Here. Little Loli was nowhere to be seen.
Zhou Ze frowned. He walked to the side of the water tank and pulled out the woman’s body. The woman’s body fell to the ground with a crash. This kind of scum deserved to die. There was nothing to respect about their bodies.
Zhou Ze squatted down beside the woman. Her upper and lower body showed an exaggerated distortion. If you lowered your head, you would find an unpleasant sight below.
“Boss, did Lin Ke do it?” Bai Yingying walked to the side and asked.
“I’m not sure. We can’t be sure for now. “Zhou Ze shook his head. “If Lin Ke got out, why didn’t she contact us?”
“Maybe she felt embarrassed?” Lawyer An was not surprised. “As a ghost, she was captured by a few ordinary human traffickers.
“If she encountered some special abuse…” At this point, Lawyer An did not go into detail. After all, the body that Lin Ke was using was like his daughter.
“If that’s the case, it would be humiliating. She would be extremely angry. It seems normal for her to kill someone to vent her anger.”
What Lawyer An said was indeed very reasonable. The few people present would have done the same in a similar situation.
Zhou Ze considered how he would have felt if he was the one who had been kidnapped and sold. After he had suffered and been humiliated, he would kill these few b*stards once his power had been released. He would torture and kill them in an extreme manner.
Ghost Guards couldn’t kill people at will. However, Zhou Ze understood Little Loli quite well in this matter. Nobody would object if a human trafficker were killed, to put it bluntly.
However, if it was Lin Ke who had killed them… Zhou Ze imagined a scene. Little Loli’s long tongue wrapped around the woman and began to twist and pull like a python. It forcefully broke countless of the woman’s bones causing her to look like this.
The hunchbacked old man’s knees were underground. Could Lin Ke have used her tongue to slap him down? How did she do this?
At this moment, Lawyer An handed Zhou Ze a cigarette. Zhou Ze took it.
“Boss, Lin Ke hasn’t returned my call yet.”
What he meant was if Lin Ke had killed these two people, then she might not have completed her revenge yet.
“Let’s go and look again.” Zhou Ze stood up.
He seemed to have suddenly discovered something. He squatted down again and fumbled around the female corpse. He took out a cell phone from her pocket. The cell phone was not locked. It did not get wet from the water tank because it was in the pocket of her pants.
However, there was nothing on the cell phone. There was no social media app. There was not even a text message or call record. It was probably because she was being very careful and had deleted any of the records.
When a woman was angry, it was very scary. Sometimes, she would not be rational. Zhou Ze hoped that Little Loli would stop immediately after killing all the human traffickers and not continue to carry on. Otherwise, she might be punished by the Yin Masters. The consequences would be very serious.
They were ghost messengers. The target of their work was ghosts. It was inconvenient to interfere in the human world.
Of course, those human traffickers wanted to hurt Lin Ke, and she fought back even if she wasn’t one of them. Otherwise, if the ghost messengers were bullied by living people, could they only smile and accept it? Who would be willing to be ghost messengers?
It was just that this place was so big. Without any definite clues, it was too difficult to find a person in this mountainous area.
“Boss, what should we do with these?” The Old Daoist pointed at the two corpses in the house and asked.
“You want to help them perform final rights?” Zhou Ze asked in return.
“Uh… No.”
“Open the door. It’s best to lure a few wild dogs in to make dinner.” Zhou Ze patted the dust off his shoulders. He walked out of the house.
It was already eight o’clock in the evening. The air in the mountainous area was good, but dark clouds were gathering tonight. It looked like rain was about to fall.
Lawyer An also walked out. He stretched and sighed. “I do hope that Lin Ke killed these two people. At least that means Lin Ke has escaped. She brings danger to others, not the other way around.”
Zhou Ze nodded. Just as he was about to put the cigarette in his mouth and light it, a boom came from afar.
A bolt of lightning struck the eastern mountain range.
Zhou Ze and Lawyer An’s bodies suddenly trembled. They were not frightened by the sound of thunder. Instead, they were staring in the direction of the thunder.
Suddenly, a terrifying murderous aura emerged. It was as if someone was holding a pot the size of a lake in the valley and boiling it.
“Something big has happened.” Lawyer An spat out the cigarette butt from his mouth with a solemn expression.
The crowd quickly got back into the car and drove in that direction. However, this time Lawyer An was driving, not the Old Priest. The Old Priest was secretly moved. He felt that the boss was feeling sorry for him. His boss wanted him to rest.
In reality, it was because both Zhou Ze and Lawyer An had an ominous premonition in their hearts. Something big had happened there. They must have only been looking at the surface of the situation and not looked deep enough.
If Little Loli was there, they would bring her out and take her away. This was someone else’s jurisdiction. It was very far from Tongcheng. If anything happened, they would not blame it on him. Therefore, there was no need to work too hard.
This was the reason why they did not let the Old Priest drive. What if this old man’s miraculous constitution appeared again? He would directly bring the big guy in front of the boss. What then?
The car had just driven out for less than twenty minutes when a Jeep drove over from behind. The Jeep was driving so fast on the winding mountain road. The driver seemed a bit suicidal.
When the Jeep overtook the car, Zhou Ze glanced at the car. He saw two men and a woman sitting in the car. The driver was a woman with wavy hair. She had quite a temperament. The woman seemed to be deliberately looking in their direction, but she quickly withdrew her gaze.
“Boss, the poker card in my pocket just shook a few times.”
“Shh.” Zhou Ze made a silent gesture to Bai Yingying.
Lawyer An cooperated and slowed down, allowing the woman to overtake them. He even deliberately pulled away from them. “The local ghost hunters have already moved out,” Lawyer An said.
“Okay.” Zhou Ze knew that Lawyer An deliberately slowed down his speed because he wanted to let those people scout the way for him first.
In any case, this was not his jurisdiction. He could be at ease as a bystander. If it was something that happened in Tongcheng, then he would have to do his best. It was indeed a good thing to be able to rest and take the back seat.
It started to rain. It wasn’t very heavy but the mountain path was covered in fog. In the mountains, the fog was a very common thing. It could be morning, noon, and night. It could even be a big fog in the early morning.
Drivers who often drove on the mountain path were familiar with this.
Lawyer An had no choice but to lower his speed a little. Even with the headlights on, the road ahead was not very clear. On one side of the mountain road was a ditch or a cliff, and below it was a mudslide.
If he accidentally made a mistake, his car would be destroyed and he would die. No one was afraid of a car accident, but damaging the car was a troublesome matter.
“Squeak. Squeak!” Monkey cried out pitifully.
Zhou Ze glanced at the monkey and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Boss, monkey wants to pee,” the Old Priest replied.
Zhou Ze nodded and said to Lawyer An, “Stop the car first and wait for a while.”
If they continued driving, they would be deep in.
Lawyer An pulled over and turned on the warning light to flash twice.
After getting out of the car, the Old Priest and monkey stood by the side of the road to pee. Monkey imitated the Old Priest. The view behind the old man was quite harmonious.
“Boss, look at the fog here. Is it like this on the road to the Netherworld?” The Old Priest still had the mood to joke around. He felt very safe because he was out with the boss and Old An this time.
The provincial road in the Deep Mountains was surrounded by mountains on both sides. Under the thick fog, there was indeed a bit of the atmosphere of the gates of Hell in the impression of an ordinary person.
“Ha, what’s wrong? Did you realize that you’re getting old and will have to take the road to the Underworld soon? Do you want to test the waters first?” Lawyer An teased.
“Bah. This penniless priest feels that he can still live for a few more decades.”
He finished peeing. His entire body was relaxed. The Old Priest comfortably stretched his back. He was exhausted today.
He yawned again. the Old Priest mumbled and asked, “That’s right, boss. Are there many ghosts on the road to the Underworld? There are no ghosts here. It doesn’t look like the road to the Underworld.”
After a while, the Old Priest felt a little awkward seeing that no one responded to him. He raised his head and saw that the boss and the others were all looking behind him with serious expressions.
The Old Priest turned his head around in confusion. He saw black shadows appear one after another in the fog not far in front of him. They were staggering forward.
