"Consuming 350 Merit Points and gaining 2500 Merit Points, a sure profit!"
Ling Yi glanced at his name list, smiled faintly, and said to the taxi driver, "To Red City Restaurant, thank you!"
There was a dinner party at Red City Restaurant, arranged by the top official of Red City City. One reason was to thank Ling Yi for his help, and another was to get closer to Ling Yi.
Ling Yi didn't want to go, but he saw a Causality Line between the golden celestial body and the human body in this person.
This immediately piqued Ling Yi's curiosity.
The Causality Line of Jinse does not fall into any category of Causality Line in Ling Yi's cognition.
There is probably only one person in this world who possesses the golden Causality Line, and that is the special being that Ling Yi has been waiting for but who has never appeared.
Now, this person has the Causality Line of the golden cesium on their body. Although it is only a thin thread, it proves that this person has some connection with that special being.
The golden Causality Line wasn't there when they met before, but it is now. It seems they've just started making contact.
Rewind to twenty minutes earlier, in a van, Jiang Weike was leading Ran Li, Bai Qingzhe, and Bai Qingyuan towards Locust Blossom Alley in Red City City.
Jiang Weike's face was extremely ugly at this moment. The reason why it had taken so long was that someone was deliberately delaying his time.
He had some guesses about who it was and what kind of person they were.
But he was helpless; this matter was clearly beyond his control.
The impact of the " Doctor's" death far exceeded Jiang Weike's expectations.
"Damn Royalist Faction, a bunch of trash, parasites!" Jiang Weike cursed.
Just then, a series of gunshots rang out.
"Gunshots? They're coming from that alley! Qingyuan, stop the car!"
Bai Qingyuan, who was driving, quickly pulled the car to the side of the road and stepped on the brakes.
Before the car had even come to a complete stop, Jiang Weike opened the car door, jumped out, and rushed straight into the alley.
What came into view were eleven corpses lying haphazardly.
Some were shot in the chest, others between the eyebrows, but without exception, all were fatal wounds; these people had no chance of survival.
" Ran Li, come over and take pictures. Qingyuan, set up the cordon. Qingzhe, call the local police!"
Ran Li said "Oh," and turned her gaze away from the taxi. She felt that the figure from earlier looked somewhat familiar.
Before she could think much about it, she heard Jiang Weike's order and immediately began to get busy.
Jiang Weike carefully inspected the scene, his eyes sweeping over every corner.
Turning over the trash can, the Shitou in the middle of the road, the postures of these people when they died.
Based on the way these people fell, he instantly deduced the approximate trajectory of the bullets.
He mentally reenacted the entire process, even lying next to a corpse and gesturing a few times.
"No way!" Jiang Weike's face was full of disbelief.
Moreover, this feeling felt strangely familiar to him, and his sixth sense immediately reminded him of Ling Yi.
Just then, a mocking voice rang out. " Jiang Weike, you're really going downhill, aren't you? A bureau chief like you, personally handling cases? Does your investigation bureau have no one else?"
Jiang Weike got up from the ground, clapped his hands, and sneered, "There's no way around it, there are too many parasites who just eat and do nothing, so I can only work a little harder!"
"How dare you say such a thing? You must have offended enough people already, right?" As he spoke, the man walked up to Jiang Weike.
This is a middle-aged Uncle looks somewhat greasy, is slightly overweight, and is balding.
He wasn't wearing an inspector's uniform; he just came over in a plaid shirt, grey casual pants, and sandals.
He held a half-eaten hamburger in his left hand and an iced drink in his right.
This person doesn't look like an inspector at all; he looks more like a gangster collecting protection money.
He walked around the eleven corpses, his pupils suddenly contracting, but he quickly regained his nonchalant demeanor.
"Tell me, aren't you a jinx? Our Red City City hasn't had any major cases for almost three years, and eleven people have died as soon as you arrived?"
" Ba Xin, stop making sarcastic remarks and go call the forensic doctor!"
"Did you hear that? The great detective wants you to call the forensic doctor over. Hurry up and go!" Ba Xin pointed at an inspector with his chin and said.
The inspector immediately ran to the side to make a phone call.
Jiang Weike knew what kind of person Ba Xin was. Although he disliked his behavior, he was too lazy to say anything more.
"How difficult will this be?" Ba Xin leaned closer and asked in a low voice.
Jiang Weike shook his head and made a "nine" gesture.
Ba Xin leaned back in shock and exclaimed, "Hey, are you looking for death? You dared to touch that?"
"What else can we do? Just watch? I can't do that!"
"If you're looking for death, then go ahead and die, but don't drag me down with you!" Ba Xin pulled a crumpled roll of white paper from his pocket and stuffed it directly into Jiang Weike's shirt pocket.
He patted him on the shoulder and said, "That's all I can find out. Don't ever ask me for help again. I want to live a couple more years."
With that, Ba Xin turned and left, saying as he went, "Remember to tell me your bank card PIN before you die!"
Ba Xin and his group arrived quickly and left just as fast, but Jiang Weike knew that this was the best Ba Xin could do.
Although Ba Xin left, the forensic doctor he had arranged arrived quickly.
After being examined, the eleven bodies were taken back to the local authorities.
We probably won't have the specific data for another day or two.
Whether or not he could get it was no longer important; Jiang Weike had already made some judgments in his mind.
On the other side, inside the VIP private room of Red City Restaurant.
A handsome, middle-aged man with a respectable appearance was attentively pouring drinks for Ling Yi and another young man.
"Brother Ling Yi, Brother Zhao Chen, it is truly an honor for me to befriend two young geniuses. I'll drink it, you can do as you please."
This Yue is none other than Yue Wanshan, the top official in Red City City.
Of course, he was only the nominal head of state; in reality, he was just a puppet.
However, Ling Yi didn't care about that at all. From the first time he met Yue Wanshan, Ling Yi had seen through this man.
Ling Yi is now more curious about this young man named Zhao Chen.
And he was the very person with whom he had formed a karmic Causality Line.
However he looked at it, Ling Yi couldn't see anything strange about this person.
But after Yue Wanshan's introduction, Ling Yi felt a strange sense of familiarity.
Zhao Chen, nineteen years old this year, studied martial arts with the Zhao Family patriarch on the mountain for twelve years, and only came down the mountain Half Moon after completing his studies.
Yue Wanshan's father had met the Zhao Family Zhao Family patriarch once and received his help, so the two families had some Karma.
Yue Wanshan knew what kind of person the Zhao Family patriarch was, which was why he was so polite to Zhao Chen.
Does this tactic seem strangely familiar?
Is the God of War returning? Or the Dragon King reclaiming his throne? Or perhaps a master of close combat?
To verify his guess, Ling Yi used his Merit Points to examine some of Yue Wanshan's Causality Line.
Yue Wanshan has a daughter who is School Belle beauty, Yue Shanshan, and a considerable portion of the Causality Line on Yue Shanshan's body contain golden cinnabar.
Ling Yi then separately examined Yue Shanshan's Causality Line and spent Merit Points to check her future.
The more I looked, the more certain I became of my suspicions!
At the same time, I also had some ideas about the Causality Line of that golden cesium.
While Ling Yi was sizing up Zhao Chen, Zhao Chen was also actually sizing up Ling Yi.
Like Ling Yi Ling Yi, who lacked sufficient Merit Points to see Zhao Chen's past and future, he also couldn't see through Ling Yi's past and future.
But the two are also somewhat different.
Ling Yi can learn about Zhao Chen indirectly through the Causality Line involved, which is not much different from directly seeing Zhao Chen's future.
It's just that finding the Causality Line is a bit more complicated.
But Zhao Chen is different; some people can calculate, and some can't.
"My ancestor told me before I came down the mountain that there are heavens beyond heavens and people beyond people. I didn't believe it before, but now I do."
Zhao Chen's way of speaking was strange. He was clearly not that old, but he insisted on acting like he was mature, which made people feel awkward.
Ling Yi had already followed Yue Shanshan's Causality Line to see a lot about Zhao Chen's future. This wasn't because he was deliberately speaking in this tone, but because he always spoke like this!
He learned to speak like his ancestor Zhao Family from a young age, and naturally, he became like this.
"In this world, there are two kinds of people who cannot see the future or predict its course: the dead and the Heavenly People," Zhao Chen said eloquently.
"When a person dies, there is no longer Karma with the mortal world, so it is naturally impossible to calculate. As for Heavenly People beings, they are protected by the Heavenly Dao, so they cannot be calculated, nor dare to be!"
Ling Yi's expression remained Changes, but inwardly he silently refuted Zhao Chen.
Who says that death has no Karma to anything in the mortal world?
Aren't those who have lost lives all entangled by the dark karmic Causality Line of the deceased? As for where these dark karmic Causality Line lead...
The cheat code indicates that both the level of Causality Control and the personal level are too low. It requires achieving high-level perfection in Causality Control and reaching level 10 in personal level in order to control the Black Cesium Death Causality Line.
However, no instructions were given on how to upgrade.
Whether or not you get a hint doesn't matter; it just means you'll use it more often!
Upgrades are inevitable in the end.
"This Heavenly People? Is there any explanation for it?" Yue Wanshan asked curiously from the side.
"Uncle Yue, you can think of him as someone who possesses extraordinary Karmic Luck and can achieve anything he desires!"
"That's amazing?"
"That's not all. Heavenly People even help Heaven itself. Being friends with them is fine, but if you become their enemy, you're in for a world of trouble."
Ling Yi still shook his head inwardly. If we're talking about Heavenly People, Zhao Chen is probably the real Heavenly People.
The Protagonist of a world's Karmic Luck, what else could he be but Heavenly People being?
As for himself, he came from a different world and doesn't belong to it at all; it's really hard to say who he is.
Having met Zhao Chen and learned the origin of the golden Causality Line, Ling Yi's purpose in coming to Red City City was achieved.
After settling Karma with Ma Xiaoxiao tomorrow, I should get down to some serious business.
The meal was a pleasant one for both host and guests. It was quite remarkable that someone as important as Yue Wanshan would fawn over two young people like that.
This is something most people couldn't do.
Ling Yi didn't go back to his rented apartment, but instead checked into a nearby hotel.
He doesn't want to deal with the inspectors right now.
Meanwhile, in Ling Yi's rented room, Jiang Weike and the others had been waiting for a long time.
Jiang Weike checked the time; it was already past 11 p. m. He sighed helplessly and said, "Let's go. There's no need to wait anymore. That kid probably won't be coming back."
"Let's grab a late-night snack first, get a good rest tonight, and we'll talk about the rest tomorrow."
Jiang Weike knew that Ling Yi probably already knew about their existence, so it was normal for him to hide.
The more Ling Yi tried to hide, the more Jiang Weike wanted to know Ling Yi's secrets.
If the death toll for those eleven people comes out tomorrow, it will further confirm my suspicions.
The first death of the " Doctor " was a coincidence, but the second time, when the guns of these eleven men accidentally discharged, causing them to shoot and kill themselves, was that also a coincidence?
