"What, Liu Yifan went to the police, saying the Waldorf Hotel is haunted?"
"Then his dad dragged him to the hospital to see a psychiatrist."
"Do you think this is part of his sche?"
"Or is he just up to no good, being all paranoid, and has genuinely gone ntally ill?"
"Damn, if he’s been laying the groundwork since now, and later on gets caught in evidence, just claiming to be ntally unstable ans he’ll get away with it, right?"
"Holy sh*t, that makes sense!"
"Captain, we really need to keep an eye on this so he doesn’t pretend to be ntally ill without actually having any issues."
"That hospital is a top-tier hospital. I asked around through connections, and the final diagnosis result is that Liu Yifan is ntally normal."
At this point, related topics were gaining traction in City Bureau’s third team.
"Normal?"
"Normal." Li Jinglin nodded.
"Then what’s with the ghost sightings?" Liang Yuandong was holding Liu Yifan’s consultation report.
It just goes to show the Liu Family is truly wealthy, calling in three psychiatry professors for a consultation in the middle of the night.
However, the professors are only responsible for the diagnosis, not for keeping the condition confidential, especially when the police are investigating a case.
"Check the last page." Li Jinglin replied.
Liang Yuandong flipped to the last page and couldn’t help but chuckle, "Due to historical experiences, the patient has accumulated psychological stress, leading to visual hallucinations."
"Hahaha, isn’t this basically cursing the monk as a bald donkey?"
Li Jinglin shook his head, "The doctors don’t know Liu Yifan’s history."
"Pfft! Liu Yifan is rotten to the core; what psychological stress could he possibly have!"
"That’s not necessarily true; sotis patients aren’t even aware they have psychological stress."
"Are you trying to make excuses for Liu Yifan?"
"No, I’d love nothing more than to see him get shot. I’m just stating the facts."
Ignoring the group’s argunt, Liang Yuandong looked at Li Jinglin, "What should we do?"
Li Jinglin shook his head, "Forget it, let’s keep focusing on our matter."
...
In the following days, Lu Zheng either spent the dayti at the hospital accompanying Lin Wan or traveled back in ti to et Liu Qingyan, focusing on learning dical skills, particularly qi-guided acupuncture.
"Qingyan, hmm, if soone got hit on the waist by a massive Wild Boar Demon, resulting in a dragon fracture, bone fragnts entering the spinal cord, damaging the spirit... and the ridians, is there a way to save them?"
"Just an injury?"
"Hmm... ridians are severed."
"If they’re directly severed, simply using needles might not be enough to save them." Liu Qingyan shook her head.
"How about using Blood Qi?"
"No, Martial Dao Blood Qi only has the effect of nourishing and replenishing Qi but is powerless for reconnecting ridians."
Lu Zheng furrowed his brows in silence.
"Lu Lang, don’t you also cultivate Daoist True Qi from White Cloud Temple?" Liu Qingyan asked curiously, "Daoist True Qi is generally balanced and harmonious, typically effective for nurturing health and stabilizing the source, also helping reconnect ridians; I can use Needle Technique cooperatively, you can nurture with True Qi, persist for half a month, and there should be results."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng couldn’t help but brighten his eyes.
"Lu Lang, why are you asking, did you encounter such a patient?" Liu Qingyan asked.
Lu Zheng shook his head, "No, I just overheard soone discussing such a matter on the street a few days ago and ca to ask you."
"Oh." Liu Qingyan’s eyes moved slightly and nodded knowingly, not asking further.
Lu Zheng glanced at the dical book in his hand; regarding acupuncture, only about half of ’Classic of Acupuncture and Moxibustion’ remained unread.
Just these few days!
In the days that followed, Lu Zheng didn’t attack Liu Yifan every day; only every other day would he find Liu Yifan and let the Ghost Child show up, scaring Liu Yifan half to death before disappearing quietly.
After the Ghost Child appeared a third ti, the people in City Bureau’s third team were dumbfounded as they watched Liu Yifan head to Qing’an Temple, spending a fortune to hire a master to perform a ceremony for him.
Lu Zheng was aware of this matter, even went to experience it, checking if that master truly had any skills.
The result was as expected by Lu Zheng.
Hence... Lu Zheng decided to wait a couple of days, give Liu Yifan a bit of hope... then personally shatter it.
Take it slow, no need to rush; after all, Lin Wan just had an incident, directly dealing with Liu Yifan not only doesn’t vent the resentnt but could expose him to a homicide case, which a wise person wouldn’t do.
Besides, killing him directly would be too easy for him, now Lu Zheng felt that the old Daoist still had so rit.
Everything was proceeding thodically until the day Lin Wan was discharged from the hospital.
"dical skill, Needle Technique, enhance!"
"Buzz!"
Within the Mind Jade Seal, nine strands of Light of Fortune vanished completely.
A multitude of knowledge flashed past, strengthening mory, innovating and improving.
Fortunately, Lu Zheng mainly advanced Needle Technique; his dical needle technique had indeed reached a certain level, though apart from this, various other subjects had only reached minor achievent.
"Phew, fortunately, it’s sufficient!"
...
Helping Lin Wan with the discharge formalities, Huang Xiumin and Liu Leng from the city bureau ca to assist, but Lu Zheng didn’t need them.
Pushing the wheelchair, calling the car, carrying the person, heading ho.
When Lin Wan arrived at the house Lu Zheng prepared for her, she truly felt the warmth of ho.
In the kitchen, there was a full set of oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, pots, pans, and dishes.
The fridge was stocked with fruits, vegetables, poultry, and fish.
Snacks scattered on the coffee table, and verdant plants on the balcony.
"How is it, satisfied?" Lu Zheng asked with a smile.
"Satisfied!"
Not only Lin Wan felt satisfied, but even Lin’s Mother was pleased; she ca over a few days ago, initially planning to see what might be lacking and need to be added, but after taking a look around, she returned ho and started encouraging Lin Wan to focus on recuperating and recovering.
Huang Xiumin turned around here, and also nodded in satisfaction, looking at Lu Zheng with much softening gaze.
"I’ll go back and pack and then bring the stuff over."
"Thank you very much."
"Not at all." Huang Xiumin shook her head, "Take good care of your injuries, strive for an early... recovery."
She didn’t dare say ’stand up,’ because the hope was too slim.
"Definitely." Lin Wan said with a smile.
...
Seeing off Huang Xiumin and Liu Leng, Lin’s Mother told Lu Zheng to accompany Lin Wan while she went into the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Lu Zheng carried Lin Wan onto the bed.
Lin Wan looked at Lu Zheng, "I see you seem like you have sothing you want to tell ?"
Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow, "Wow, you can even see that?"
Lin Wan couldn’t help but laugh, "Don’t forget, I’m a cop."
"Impressive! Just based on your observational skills, why be a cop, be a human lie detector, a million-dollar annual salary is no dream!" Lu Zheng gave a thumbs up.
"Stop jabbering, speak up!"
"Alright."
Lu Zheng nodded, "Hmm, you know, my father is a doctor."
"You told ."
"So I had a rich family tradition, studying computers for money, while I’ve always had a keen interest in traditional Chinese dicine since childhood."
"What?" Lin Wan looked completely baffled, "Didn’t you practice martial arts since childhood?"
"Oh, that’s my second hobby." Lu Zheng waved it off nonchalantly.
Lin Wan: ⚆_⚆?
"It’s like this, when I self-studied Chinese dicine and felt I’ve gotten sowhere, I even did acupuncture on myself." Lu Zheng continued.
Lin Wan imdiately reacted, shocked, "You want to be your guinea pig?"
"What’s with your choice of words..."
Lu Zheng was speechless, "Do you think why I’m so formidable? Because I practiced martial arts, and sohow also developed Qi Sensitivity, later even perford acupuncture on myself, using Qi Sensitivity as stimulation, and gradually beca increasingly formidable."
Lin Wan took a deep breath, almost looking at him as if she didn’t know Lu Zheng.
"You actually didn’t manage to stab yourself to death?"
