The murderer is still here?
As soon as Luo Chen said this, it startled everyone.
But then Professor Zhou and the others sneered.
“Mister Luo, you cannot make such claims lightly.”
“Over there.” Luo Chen pointed towards the boiler room.
With his methods, he did not need to investigate or search for the murderer at all. He only needed to follow the murderer’s aura to determine the general direction where the murderer was now.
But even Luo Chen had not expected that the murderer would still be here.
The murderous aura was heaviest near the boiler room, and Luo Chen could sense that there was definitely something inside.
Although Professor Zhou had spoken that way, Director Qi still approached slowly with the attitude that it was better to believe it existed than not.
Before they even got close, someone noticed there was indeed a problem, because there were bloodstains there.
Normally this would be the time to draw guns and make an arrest.
But Director Qi was very experienced, and so was Professor Zhou.
“Director Qi, quickly call people over. First secure the outside area and have the place surrounded,” Professor Zhou said.
“You had better not call anyone over, and you had better not move,” Luo Chen stood to one side, lit a cigarette, and spoke.
The murderous aura inside was extremely heavy. Even Luo Chen felt that the thing inside was somewhat formidable.
“What do you mean?” Director Qi asked.
If the murderer was really inside, they definitely had to arrest him.
“The thing inside is not something you can deal with at all,” Luo Chen warned.
“Nonsense. Is there anything in this world that we cannot handle?” Professor Zhou said coldly.
He had long been displeased with Luo Chen and had been holding back his anger.
“Mister Luo, I do not quite understand what you mean by that.”
“No matter how powerful the person inside is, he cannot withstand bullets. If he dares to resist, we will shoot him on the spot,” Director Qi also said.
“What if what is inside is not a person at all?” Luo Chen waved his hand.
Luo Chen could clearly sense that the thing inside should be very powerful and definitely not something ordinary people could handle.
“Hehe, Mister Luo, it is rather inappropriate to say such things in front of all of us,” Professor Zhou sneered repeatedly.
“Not a person?”
“According to you, could it be a ghost?”
“Mister Luo, folk tales and superstitions may be believed by ordinary people, but we do not believe in that sort of thing,” Liu Wei also spoke up from the side.
Everyone present was an elite from the police world who had solved many bizarre cases, but almost all of them turned out to be humans causing trouble.
They had long upheld science. How could they believe in ghosts?
Moreover, talking about ghosts and monsters in front of police officers was itself extremely disrespectful to them.
In addition, several of them felt that Luo Chen had simply got lucky and happened to come here and stumble upon the murderer. It was not that Luo Chen had any real skill and had actually solved the case to find the murderer.
So they remained unconvinced.
“Mister Luo, why do you not rest first? You have been busy with this matter for quite a while,” even Director Qi spoke this way at this moment.
He did not believe in talk of ghosts and monsters.
Moreover he had always harboured some doubts about Luo Chen. He had simply not said anything because Luo Chen had been specially assigned by Wang Weiguo.
Luo Chen’s recent talk of ghosts and monsters had also caused Director Qi to look down on him somewhat deep down.
Although these words were spoken politely, the meaning was that the matter now had nothing to do with Luo Chen and he could go wherever he liked to cool off.
How could Luo Chen fail to understand the meaning behind these words?
Since these people insisted on courting death, Luo Chen would not stop them.
After all, he had only promised Wang Weiguo to find the murderer.
As for what happened next, it was none of his business.
So Luo Chen really walked straight towards the exit and went upstairs.
Meanwhile Director Qi and Professor Zhou began to deploy police forces.
Before long dozens of police cars arrived, all special police, and even snipers were ready.
Luo Chen leaned on the railing upstairs with both hands and looked down.
At this moment a large group of special police in bulletproof vests holding guns were already in position.
They could launch an attack at any time.
“People inside, listen up. You are surrounded. Drop your weapons and come out to surrender,” Professor Zhou shouted into a loudspeaker towards the inside.
But there was no movement at all inside.
The boiler room door remained tightly closed. Clearly the other side had no intention of responding.
Luo Chen smiled and shook his head.
“You look a bit familiar?” A voice suddenly came from behind Luo Chen.
Luo Chen turned his head. It was a woman, extremely beautiful, with long hair like a waterfall and a very tall figure. Her thick eyebrows and large eyes made her look exceptionally pretty.
Most importantly, there was a faint elegant fragrance on the woman. It was obvious that the perfume she used was extremely high end.
“Do we know each other?” Luo Chen felt slightly surprised. He sensed something unusual from this woman.
Although covered by perfume, Luo Chen could still smell a strong corpse aura.
“We do not exactly know each other, but I have seen you a few times,” Apu Zikui said.
“My name is Apu Zikui. There is a massage parlour opposite the house you are renting,” Apu Zikui introduced herself.
Only then did Luo Chen remember. This was the massage parlour owner who used corpse manipulation techniques to massage living people?
This was really quite interesting.
People from the Xiangxi corpse driving lineage had also come to join the excitement.
“Since we are fated to meet, I advise you not to stand here watching the show. It will become very dangerous here soon,” Apu Zikui was originally cold and elegant. Speaking in such a cold tone and expression now made her seem like an ice beauty.
In Apu Zikui’s eyes, Luo Chen was just an ordinary young man, and what would come out here soon was not something ordinary people could watch safely.
If he was not careful, he could lose his life.
“Thank you, but I am curious,” Luo Chen said with a smile.
“Curiosity killed the cat. You had better put away your curiosity and leave here immediately. This is my sincere advice.”
“Last warning,” Apu Zikui said coldly.
She felt Luo Chen was not bad and lived opposite her, so she kindly reminded this ordinary young man out of goodwill.
Otherwise it would be a great loss if he lost his life later.
But if Luo Chen would not listen, then she could do nothing more.
“Thank you, but I still want to stay,” Luo Chen said with a smile.
“Whatever you want,” Apu Zikui said somewhat angrily.
After hesitating, she still took off a string of beads from her hand and handed it to Luo Chen.
“Take this.”
Luo Chen looked at the string of beads and sensed a special energy fluctuation on them.
Clearly these beads were not ordinary.
“Thank you,” Luo Chen smiled but still refused. Although the thing inside was powerful, it was clearly impossible for it to harm him.
“Sigh, forget it. I have advised you several times. If you insist on courting death, I cannot help you,” Apu Zikui said, now truly angry, and walked to one side.
After all she had only acted out of momentary kindness to help this somewhat familiar ordinary young man. Since he was so ignorant of his own limits, he could face the consequences himself.
“Do not regret it later. Do not think you are safe just because there are so many police here.”
“You should know that in this world there are many existences that ordinary people like you cannot understand,” as soon as Apu Zikui finished speaking.
Bang. The boiler room door over there was kicked open with one foot.
