1326 I Only Want You 24 (2/2)
An Xiaoning did not pin much of her hopes onto the victim's family. She planned to go to three places tonight, namely the victim's grave, the victim's home, and the reservoir.
Thus, she was eagerly looking forward to the nighttime.
....
Although she had already verified the location of the victim's tomb. It was still rather troublesome for her to get there.
Due to the heavy rain last night, the soil around the fields had become wet and muddy, which created added resistance for them when they were treading through the fields.
An Xiaoning and Fan Shixin searched for a long time before finding the grave.
They could see everything clearly without having to step forward.
”Nope, there aren't any. If she's a very vengeful spirit, she'll probably wander around. She doesn't necessarily have to be in her tomb. Let's go visit her home now.”
The two of them then began walking back.
The victim's home was near the reservoir, and most of the other residents there had already moved away.
The village used to be a crowded one that housed hundreds of households.
However, things were now drastically different.
The moonlight tonight made it easier for them to see through the night vision goggles.
Staring at the entrance of the victim's home, An Xiaoning remarked, ”The door is so narrow. It's bad.”
”The doors of other houses are rather wide. Why is hers so small? It's barely one-third the size of our door.”
”I don't know. Let's climb over the wall instead. Don't bother touching the lock.”
”Okay.”
They swiftly climbed over the wall to see that the yard was terribly shabby and run down.
It felt extremely dead and secluded.
An Xiaoning scanned her surroundings and began walking toward the house.
There was no lock on the main door, which was left ajar.
It was understandable since most people would avoid going near the house. Ever since the victim's death, the victim's husband had already left the village with their child. Hence, it was unlikely that there would be burglars.
An Xiaoning reached out to push the door, which opened with a creak.
The two of them stood outside the door for more than ten seconds before entering. An Xiaoning took the lead while Fan Shixin followed closely behind.
As soon as they entered, the two of them heard some sounds. An Xiaoning looked over to see that there was a head banging against the cabinet in the living room. Although An Xiaoning had already seen and experienced lots of supernatural encounters, she could not help but let out a shriek of terror and grab Fan Shixin's arm tightly. Frightened by her sudden shriek, Fan Shixin shivered and grabbed her arm too. ”Young Madam, what's wrong?”
An Xiaoning took a deep breath instead of answering him. She calmed herself down before turning to look at the same spot again.
”I'm An Xiaoning, the team leader of the special investigation unit at the police station. I'm also the daughter of the current president of S Nation. I'm psychic and I can communicate with spirits. I've begun investigating your case again. It's good to know that you haven't reincarnated yet. That makes it much easier for your case to be resolved.”
”You… really can see me?” the spirit of the victim asked in a melancholic voice.
”Of course I can. We went to your grave before coming here. Had I known earlier, we would have just come here first.” Noticing that the victim's head was moving toward her, An Xiaoning said, ”Stop, don't come here. I wouldn't be afraid of you if your body was in a complete form. However, I'm a little terrified by you since only your head is left.”
