C29 (1/2)

After returning to the Bureau of Investigation and storing the body parts, Seventh Uncle sent everyone to the warehouse. After waiting for almost half an hour, Meng Nanshan came to the warehouse with a tired expression and yawned. ”Seventh Brother, what did you find? You called me here so late?”

Seventh Uncle pouted at me, and I explained, ”Chief Meng, we found the live corpse. It just raided my house.”

Meng Nanshan yawned again. ”Just come back. Is there anything else?”

I gasped for breath and looked at Seventh Uncle. ”When I saw Noon, he was the one who killed the living corpse.”

Meng Nan Shan yawned and then stopped. He stood in the air and was stunned for a moment, ”What? Was it Noon that saved you? ”

”Something like that!” I nodded. ”But Chief Meng, I saw the silver knife.”

He pointed at the door of the warehouse, ”Huang Quan, Seventh Uncle, are you two joking? That silver knife has been in the safe all this time. Besides, entering the warehouse requires the permission of the internal staff, as well as the two keys from me and Seventh Brother to open the safe, that is absolutely impossible.”

Seventh Uncle nodded and agreed with Meng Nanshan, ”That's right. In theory, even if Noon could easily get into the warehouse, it would still be impossible to get two keys at the same time.”

Meng Nanshan stretched his neck and took out the golden key that was hanging on his chest. ”Look, I am sure that no one has come near me these days. I have been carrying the golden key with me.”

After saying that, Seventh Uncle followed suit and pulled out the silver key hanging on his chest. ”Me too, but Director Meng, this is strange. Look, this is a photo of a corpse.”

Seventh Uncle handed the photo to Meng Nanshan. When he looked at the wound on the corpse, Meng Nanshan was shocked.

Meng Nanshan looked at it for a long time. ”Increase in bone density?”

”That's right, the bones of the living corpses have been petrified. With such hardness, ordinary blades and strength, it is impossible for them to cause such wounds.”

Meng Nanshan took a deep breath. ”Open the safe.”

After inserting the silver and gold key into the keyhole, the two of them immediately frowned. I leaned forward and open my mouth, the silver knife was placed safely in the safe.

”How can this be?” Seventh Uncle's face was ashen, his expression unspeakably ugly. He once again confirmed the wound in the photo, ”Impossible, this is impossible!” Seventh Uncle panicked as he spoke with a bit of a knot at the corner of his mouth.

Meng Nanshan also couldn't believe it. He cautiously locked the safe, and handed the silver key to Seventh Uncle. ”This world is big, and there are also many masterwork weapons. Perhaps it's just a coincidence!”

Coincidence? I don't believe it, but seeing is believing. Even though I was the only one there, there was no need for me to lie.

It was already late at night, and I didn't feel sleepy at all. After Meng Nanshan left, Seventh Uncle asked me strangely, ”Huang Quan, tell me the truth. If something happened in your house, why did you ask Ding Lan for help?”

My face immediately turned red. ”This …” This... She's staying at my place tonight. ”

Seventh Uncle raised his eyebrows. ”Are you with Lan Xin?”

”No, no, Dinglan said in her heart that her house is being renovated. Is she staying at my house for the past two days?”

Seventh Uncle's thoughtful expression grew more and more serious as he looked at me for a long time. ”I shouldn't have asked you about your relationship issues, but I advise you to stay away from women. It's not against Ding Lan Xin. It's the same for any woman.”

”Why?”

”Once the Spirit Channeling Sect is troubled by emotions, it's the same as destroying their own future. Didn't the book teach you? ”

”Of course I know, but the book doesn't go that far. The second law is abstinence, and it's not abstinence. I can't be a bachelor for life, can I?” Seventh Uncle, I don't think this matter is that serious. ”

Seventh Uncle didn't say anything, but pointed to his chest. I instantly understood what was going on. Ever since I joined the Bureau, I had never heard of Seventh Uncle having a family. As a middle-aged Seventh Uncle, he had never had a romantic life before.

I grinned. ”Seventh Uncle, haven't you been tormenting yourself all these years?”
