Chapter 129 Conflic (1/2)

Liu Piaopiao suddenly pointed to Lil Bei and looked at Jiang Wanting. She said, ”Officer, this man pretended to be a doctor just now and attacked me. You have to help me catch him.”
Jiang Wanting frowned and said, ”Don't worry, I will judge for myself. If he really hurt you, I will arrest him.”
Xiao Bing smiled. He knew that Jiang Wanting was doing him a favour. To put it bluntly, she was fond of him. Based on her usual character, she would step forward and arrest Lil Bei immediately.
Looking at Liu Piaopiao, Xiao Bing asked slowly, ”Piaopiao, I want to ask you. How did Uncle Ye fall ill?”
Liu Piaopiao looked at Ye Tianming. Seeing Ye Tianming's calm expression, Liu Piaopiao calmed down a little and said, ”It was because he was frightened.”
”Oh.” Xiao Bing nodded. He continued asking, ”I heard that he saw a ghost. Furthermore, you were the first person who saw the ghost. Is it so?”
”Yes.”
”How did the ghost look like?”
”In orange clothing. Messy hair...”
Xiao Bing looked at Jiang Wanting and asked, ”Officer, do you believe in the supernatural?”
Jiang Wanting said seriously, ”I only believe in law and science.”
”Oh, that's great. I also believe that the law does not believe in the supernatural. This means that the ghost you saw wasn't real. Am I right?”
Liu Piaopiao snorted and said, ”How do I know?”
Xiao Bing smiled and said, ”If someone was playing a trick, I am very curious. Uncle Lei is Uncle Ye's strongest master. Nothing can hide from him. Why were you the first to see the ghost, instead of Uncle Lei? Unless... you are talking nonsense...”
Liu Piaopiao sneered and answered, ”Bancheng also saw the ghost. Hence, he was badly frightened. Do you think I'm talking nonsense?”
Xiao Bing laughed and said, ”It can be proven easily. This means that someone dressed up as a ghost.”
Jiang Wanting, who was standing at a side nodded while listening. She said, ”This is possible.”
Liu Piaopiao sneered and said, ”Even if someone dressed up as a ghost, it has nothing to do with me. I was also frightened.”
Xiao Bing smiled and asked, ”OK then. I want to continue asking. How many exits were there in the hall where you saw the ghost?”
Liu Piaopiao's facial expression changed slightly. Xiao Bing laughed and said, ”It is hard to say, right? After the incident, I asked Uncle Lei privately and got Lil Bei, the person beside me to investigate the place. There is only one exit and the direction of the ghost that you saw at that time was behind the Buddha statue. So where did the ghost go? If it ran away through that exit, it couldn't hide from Uncle Lei. Even a person with poor eyesight would detect it. If it didn't run away through that exit, this meant that there was a secret passage in the hall at that time.”
Jiang Wanting's eyes lit up and nodded. She said, ”That's right. It makes a lot of sense.”
Xiao Bing continued smiling and said, ”However, I have gotten Lil Bei to send people over to investigate and have also communicated with the people in the temple. There is no secret passage in the hall for people to hide in. Hence, I'm surprised. Where was the person who pretended to be a ghost, since it couldn't hide and wasn't detected by Uncle Lei? No one would believe that there was a real ghost.”
Liu Piaopiao appeared flustered. Jiang Wanting was observing. She felt that there was something fishy about this woman. Xiao Bing was indeed capable.
Xiao Bing continued, ”Well... if someone was really playing a trick, it will deliberately appear in front of you and cause you to scream. Well, let's say it exited the hall with the crowd. Then, I would like to ask. If it hides among the crowd, won't the others be scared? Only scares you? If it didn't leave the hall and there was no secret passage in the hall, could it vanish into thin air?”
Liu Piaopiao swallowed her saliva and began to tense up. She hesitated for a long time and finally said hesitantly, ”Maybe, maybe I was wrong.”
Xiao Bing laughed heartily and said, ”If you see wrongly, it would be quite interesting. You see wrongly. When you left the temple, there was really a female ghost with orange hair, who appeared in front of Uncle Ye. Was Uncle Ye hallucinating? Was Uncle Lei hallucinating?”
Liu Piaopiao became speechless. Her forehead started to sweat and she closed her mouth.
