What's Your Name, and How Much Are You Worth?

Although that guy emphasized that I couldn't wear women's clothes out, if I wear them at home, I won't break his rule, right?

This Saintess is indeed clever!

After thinking for a moment, she changed into men's clothing and went out.

Green Mountain Town is small, and could even be described as a semi-modern rural area. However, precisely because of this, many things that are hard to buy in big cities can be easily purchased here.

for example...

Incense, candles, paper money, etc.

To find the murderer of the rich man's son, without any spiritual energy, the only option is to Setting Up an Altar and Performing Rituals...

When Wu Guodong asked earlier, Qi Zixiao repeatedly said it wasn't necessary, but now she still has no choice but to Setting Up an Altar and Performing Rituals.

Although my face hurts a little...

But as long as Wu Guodong doesn't find out that we 'Setting Up an Altar and Performing Rituals, then we won't feel ashamed, right?

Qi Zixiao was once again impressed by her own wit!

"There are quite a lot of things to buy... It's troublesome to have no spiritual energy or True Essence. I don't know how to obtain some spiritual energy."

She frowned and began to think about what she wanted to buy.

Needless to say, Glutinous Rice, Paper Figurines, gold ingots, and a large red rooster are also needed.

Qi Zixiao could only wander around Green Mountain Town, and it took her almost half a day to gather all the necessary materials before heading to the place where Wu Guodong had taken her to see the corpses last time.

Don't know the way?

It's alright. I've already mastered the basics of the Heaven and Earth Grand Deduction Art. Once I've been to a place, I'll naturally have a vague sense of it, and my sense of direction won't be wrong.

Around noon, not far from the location, Qi Zixiao was still starving and decided to find a place to eat something.

This place is bustling and full of delicious food.

After thinking for a moment, she set her sights on Kyoto Roast Duck.

"Please go up to the fifth floor for Peking duck?"

Following the directions on the sign, Qi Zixiao entered the elevator, pressed the button for the fifth floor, and waited quietly.

Just as the elevator doors were about to close, a hand suddenly reached in, startling Qi Zixiao...

However, the other party simply pried open the elevator door, then smiled slightly at Qi Zixiao and said, "Sorry, I'm in a hurry."

He was wearing a mask, so Qi Zixiao couldn't see his face clearly. She just nodded and didn't pay him any more attention.

However, the other person was fiddling with something near the elevator buttons. Since his back was to Qi Zixiao, he blocked her view, so Qi Zixiao couldn't see what he was doing.

Third floor.

After the other person got off the elevator, only Qi Zixiao remained inside...

Fourth floor, fifth floor...

However.

The elevator did not stop, nor did the doors open, until it suddenly stopped on the eighteenth floor.

Qi Zixiao narrowed her eyes slightly. "Is this what they call an elevator malfunction?"

"I think there are security cameras inside elevators, right?"

She glanced back at the camera and gave up on the idea of prying open the elevator door to get out, even though it would have been easy.

After all, that guy said he wanted to keep a low profile...

"So, what should you do in this situation? Wait for rescue?"

She was carrying a large bag of things, pondering for a while.

But at that moment, eerie music started playing in the elevator, just like the music that plays before a scary scene in a horror movie, making Qi Zixiao roll her eyes.

"How could you possibly see a ghost in broad daylight?"

She wasn't afraid at all.

Seeing ghosts is definitely impossible, because there are no ghosts in this world...

Not to mention this world, there are none in the Cultivation World either. At most, there are ghost cultivators, but so-called ghost cultivators are actually cultivators whose physical bodies have been destroyed. They can only cultivate with their own souls. They have no physical body and are not ghosts in the true sense.

Since that's the case, what am I afraid of?

but...

This made Qi Zixiao realize one thing: someone was up to no good!

She had never encountered an elevator malfunction, but as someone who frequently watches TV dramas, she had seen similar scenes on television more than once.

Therefore, she simply said calmly, "Who's playing music? It's so annoying! People have things to do!!!"

As soon as she spoke, at the same time, the building's surveillance footage showed a man wearing a baseball cap covered in sweat.

"People... people?!"

Beside him, two men in security guard uniforms had collapsed to the ground, in a deep coma.

"Is this guy a freak?"

He cursed under his breath, feeling frustrated, then leaned closer to the microphone and lowered his voice. "Heh heh heh, no wonder you're called the Crime Nemesis, you certainly have a lot of guts."

"However... soon there will be no more Crime Nemesis."

Are you ready to face death?

Crime Nemesis?

Qi Zixiao raised an eyebrow, realizing what was happening.

This is targeting me!

Are you referring to those desperate criminals Wu Guodong mentioned, the kind who specifically oppose the police and are all more valuable than Qiu Shufeng?

She was instantly excited.

"Ready, ready! Where are you? Come and kill me!"

other side. "..."

The man in the baseball cap was stunned.

Are you fucking crazy?!

This isn't what I expected!

Shouldn't you be experiencing one of these emotions at a time like this: anger, fear, crying, begging for mercy, or calmness?

What the hell is wrong with you being so excited?!

It's like a fly seeing dung, what a lunatic!

After a brief moment of surprise, he spoke again, "Hehehe..."

"What are you 'heh' for?!"

In the scene, ' Lin Fan ' speaks directly: 'I'll wait right here. Are you going to kill me or not?'

The man in the baseball cap was annoyed at being interrupted, but his strong mental fortitude prevented him from losing his composure at any moment.

"Are you trying to provoke me so that I can't help but appear in front of you?"

"Unfortunately, you're mistaken."

The man in the baseball cap spoke slowly, "I'm not stupid. I investigated thoroughly before coming here. Witnesses said you're very strong. Even Qiu Shufeng couldn't fight back against you. So, how could I possibly kill you with my own hands?"

"Besides, this is an art."

"Fighting and killing, too bloody, not good, not good..."

Qi Zixiao was intrigued by the other person's words and threw the bag in her hand to her feet. "Then how will you kill me?"

The bag fell to the ground, and the incense, candles, and paper money inside spilled out.

Upon seeing this, the man in the baseball cap laughed heartily, "You can tell fortunes? You actually knew today was your death day, and you even prepared incense and paper money? Don't worry, I'll burn them for you."

"As for how to die... how about this: the elevator malfunctions, the safety rope breaks, and you fall from the eighteenth floor?"

"It's pretty good."

Qi Zixiao was too lazy to waste words with him, but for the time being, the enemy was in the dark while she was in the light, and she didn't know where he was either, so she could only ask, "By the way, I have a question for you before I die."

"What's up?"

"What's your name? How much are you worth?"

Upon hearing this, the other party was stunned. "..."
