Although the police have many problems, they are still obedient, after all, they are also afraid of encountering ghosts.
The three policemen went in one after another, and surprisingly, apart from feeling a little uncomfortable when they first entered, they didn't feel anything else.
The person who felt most uncomfortable was Zhang Gou.
He went in last, holding his phone, and even though he was terrified, he still had to go live and stubbornly insist that he didn't believe in ghosts.
Whether Zhang Gou believes in ghosts or not is not important to netizens; they just want to be able to watch the live stream.
"Why is it so cold?" Zhang Gou rubbed his arms. "Why turn on the air conditioning in the middle of winter..."
He had just finished complaining when he noticed the air conditioner wasn't on. Startled, he shuddered and hurriedly followed several policemen who seemed perfectly fine.
The police captain was the first to notice the disharmony in the room's overall design. " Wang Laoliu's treasures look quite mixed up. Wasn't he supposed to be a professional collector?"
"Many collectors have their own preferred style, but his is quite simple and crude, displaying things haphazardly."
Jiang Nuo rubbed her left eye. "It's quite regular."
The captain was taken aback, and scanned the room again. "What pattern?"
Si Yan pulled his coat tighter, staying close to Jiang Nuo, "The patterns of the formation."
team leader. "..."
He stepped back two steps and handed the task of surveying the scene back to the two men.
It would be strange if someone could figure that out themselves.
In the very center of the display case, at the innermost part, was a porcelain doll the size of a watermelon, its entire body black, like jade.
At this moment, Mrs. Wang changed her clothes and came in. Seeing everyone examining the porcelain doll, she explained, "My Laoliu said that black jade porcelain dolls are rare, so we've been keeping them here."
Jiang Nuo shook her finger. "It's not black."
"Isn't this black, or white?" Zhang Gou finally found an opening, scoffing, "Don't tell me you're spouting all sorts of supernatural nonsense!!"
His smile changed as Jiang Nuo grabbed his hand and pressed it hard against the porcelain doll's head. Instantly, a burning sensation came from his palm, as if he were being roasted over a fire.
"Let go! Ah!"
Zhang Gou tried to struggle, but Jiang Nuo pressed his face down, and they could even hear the sizzling sound of his cheeks being burned.
" Jiang Nuo! Let go!" the young policeman stopped him.
Jiang Nuo glanced at them with a smile, "What, am I leaving?"
The captain pulled the young policeman aside and shook his head.
Hahaha, that was awesome!
I was just guessing when God Nuo would finally lose his temper and beat this guy up! And sure enough!
"Why did you have to provoke Jiang Nuo for no reason?" (shakes head with hands behind her back)
Zhang Gou's struggles weakened, his muscles spasming in pain. Jiang Nuo then tossed him aside, clapped his hands, and put his hands on his hips.
"See, I already told you it's not black."
No one had time to pay attention to Zhang Gou. When they looked over again, the porcelain doll had changed color. The places that Zhang Gou had touched were now white. Looking at Zhang Gou, it was clear that everyone had smelled the scorching heat, but his skin was undamaged. There were only two black patches on his skin, like ugly birthmarks that had been naturally formed.
"What exactly happened?" the captain asked.
"This porcelain doll is haunted by resentment, which is why it appears black."
Jiang Nuo casually explained, then turned the porcelain doll around again. There was half a tattered black talisman pasted on the back of its head, the incantation on it was not very clear.
"Is the other half at your house?" Jiang Nuo asked Madam Wang.
Madam Wang spoke evasively, as if afraid, "Yes, yes... but, Laoliu said before that the other half of the talisman is unlucky, and only he can touch it."
Si Yan glanced at Madam Wang, her eyes cold and piercing. " Wang Laoliu is already dead. If you don't hand it over, you'll die too."
Madam Wang swallowed hard.
These words were extremely damaging. Fearing that something might happen to her, she quickly took out the remaining half of the talisman from the hidden cabinet in Wang Laoliu's desk.
Si Yan took it and tried to stick it on, but Jiang Nuo pulled it away.
"This thing has a lot of yin energy, don't touch it."
As Jiang Nuo spoke, he pressed half of the talisman upwards, carefully examining the incantation on it.
"Oh?" He tilted his head, somewhat surprised. "I thought it would be a suppression talisman, but it's nourishing instead."
Si Yan looked at Madam Wang with a somber expression, "You are using human blood to raise a ghost."
Madam Wang turned deathly pale and collapsed to the ground, "I don't know..."
"I thought it was just a lucky charm, I didn't know it was a little devil."
Her expression was one of utter terror, and her lips trembled as she asked, "Then... then Laoliu was Ghost Killing? But Laoliu had worshipped it for a long time, how could it have killed him?"
Jiang Nuo snapped her fingers, her tone light and cheerful, "Because you brought in other ghosts, the little ghost, being capricious by nature, thought that another ghost was trying to steal its offerings, so it got angry."
As he explained, his palm was still stroking the porcelain doll's round head when he suddenly sensed the little devil's displeasure and slapped him.
"Behave yourself, or I'll eat you up."
Jiang Nuo opened her mouth Zhang Da in a threatening gesture.
Kid: "..."
The porcelain doll quieted down again.
The police looked at the porcelain doll, finding it unbelievable. "So the case can be closed. It was this... uh, the doll that killed Wang Laoliu."
Jiang Nuo: "Unfortunately, that's not the case."
He patted the porcelain doll's head. "This little devil hasn't taken any lives yet. Wang Laoliu was killed by the resentment of a vengeful ghost."
Si Yan continued, following his wife's words, "The batch of goods brought out from the Old Stockade Gate were all tainted with resentment. The most severely affected items are still in your house. The little devil was just a catalyst."
Madam Wang began to cry again, breathless and heartbroken.
"This is tricky." The captain hissed, then asked his colleague behind him, "Have you made the call?"
"I hit the captain, and then I hit someone else about the kid. The association said they'll arrange someone as soon as possible."
The policeman had barely finished speaking when Si Yan's phone rang.
"Grandfather."
" Xiao Yan, you don't need to take Xiao Nuo home tonight. There's been a case in your area; you need to go and handle it."
Si Yan found the name increasingly familiar, and her lips twitched. "Isn't there also a porcelain doll-like imp?"
"Yes, we need to find out the cause as soon as possible. We need to investigate the matter of the vengeful ghost's grave and the little ghost. I'll have my subordinates send you the information later."
Si Yan: "..."
He hung up the phone, met the policeman's somewhat guilty smile, and pursed his lips in displeasure.
Jiang Nuo felt a strange urge to laugh, and gently rubbed Si Yan's face with both hands, saying, "Don't be angry, don't be angry."
Si Yan covered his hand and hugged him, letting out a soft hum.
"My date tonight is ruined. I even made a restaurant reservation."
"It's okay, as long as you..."
Before Jiang Nuo could finish speaking, her expression suddenly changed slightly, and she quickly gestured with her fingers before asking the police officer, "Where's that nanny from earlier?"
"They've taken us downstairs to rest," the policeman replied.
Jiang Nuo blinked and said with certainty, "She's dying."
All the police officers. "Huh?!"
They rushed downstairs; they couldn't let another life disappear before their eyes.
Zhang Gou dared not stay with Jiang Nuo now, so he picked up his phone and ran downstairs.
Jiang Nuo cupped Si Yan's face and kissed him, "As long as you're by my side, that's enough."
Si Yan hugged him and kissed him back.
