With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal Chapter 9: Chief Inspector Long Jiu
In the evening, on the way, the sunset accompanied the evening glow.
The weather was getting a bit cooler, ng Chuan’s Qi Blood hadn’t passed the first level yet, and the autumn wind blowing on ng Chuan made him feel a slight chill, so he tightened his collar.
This autumn wind also blew over the corpse lying on the street.
When he reached the [Greenland Plaza Station] platform to wait for the bus, ng Chuan noticed a vacant lot dozens of ters to the left, sealed off with police barricade tape, surrounded by several fully ard police officers wearing uniforms similar to his uncle’s.
Since ng Chuan had good vision since he was young, through the gaps between the officers and the barricade, he vaguely saw a corpse stuck to the ground, also wearing a blue and white uniform.
"Impossible, no way it’s..."
ng Chuan’s heart thumped with a sense of foreboding, and he frantically pulled out his phone from his pocket to call his uncle, but several calls went unanswered.
Why can’t I reach him? ng Chuan’s heart sank, and he hurriedly wanted to get closer to check the corpse.
He walked out of the platform and just approached a few ters towards the barricade, the surrounding officers imdiately ca over.
"Stop looking! Hurry ho, so young and so nosy, ddling in what?"
A tall and strong bald officer, swinging his hat with one hand, approached ng Chuan and drove him away. ng Chuan had no choice but to wait for the bus while continuing to make calls.
After ng Chuan left, the bald officer put on his hat, walked back to the barricade, and squatted down.
One hand on his chin, he frowned tightly as he examined the horrific corpse in front of him.
The uniform was twisted together with the flesh, tightly stuck to the ground, as if half-crushed by sothing.
"Xiaoli, co here, give an assessnt of the scene."
Upon hearing the strong officer testing him, the young officer nearby hurriedly stepped forward.
Even though he had been involved in investigating various cases after joining as a detective, it was his first ti encountering such a grueso death.
Furrowing his brow, Xiaoli analyzed in his mind and gave his assessnt:
"Chief Long, I first determine the identity of the deceased. Judging by the clothing, the deceased... is our colleague, but due to severe damage to the corpse, it’s impossible to identify who specifically it is from the face and clothing, nor can the unit be determined."
"As for the cause of death, I have a shallow understanding, and I deduce two possibilities. From the scene, one is death by heavy machinery crushing, as the body is flattened, and there are point-like blood splatters near the ears, nose, and mouth, like those left by a sudden violent impact."
"The second possibility... I believe it is highly likely the work of a Celestial Demon, a solid-type Celestial Demon, with great strength and extrely brutal ans, with a penchant for sadistic killing. Everything at the scene fits this description.
It’s unlikely it was done by a human martial artist; I believe that even a person on the Demon Path wouldn’t use such cruel thods."
The bald chief nodded in confirmation:
"Very good, I’ll add another point, with the absence of surveillance footage on site, excluding human manipulation, it should be interference from a Celestial Demon Force Field."
He continued:
"Xiaoli, issue my orders, within Qindu District, including detectives, patrol officers, traffic officers, and even household registration officers, all are to be distributed under the command of your captain Liu Jinglong, get everyone moving!"
"Find this Celestial Demon for , I want to personally deliver the sa death as an offering to our colleague’s spirit!"
"Yes, sir!"
In the region under his jurisdiction, it had been so many years since a Celestial Demon appeared.
Thinking of this, a murderous aura rose in the bald chief’s heart. How dare they attack my people, they’ve really had enough of living!
With this thought, a towering black giant ape two to three stories high gradually appeared behind him, alternately pounding its chest with its thick ape arms, its ape head upturned, revealing a mouth full of sharp teeth, roaring to the sky.
The other officers, witnessing this, quickly lowered their heads and avoided looking, having not seen Chief Long’s [Ape God Dharma Aspect] in many years, it seems Chief Long is really furious this ti.
...
After getting off the tram, ng Chuan rushed ho. All the way back, he hadn’t been able to reach his uncle by phone, making him extrely anxious.
"Knock knock knock..."
There was no response after knocking on the door. Damn! Could sothing really have happened? ng Chuan dared not think further, he quickly pulled out his keys, taking several tries to insert them and turned the handle to dash into the living room.
"Uncle, uncle, are you ho?"
The living room was empty, and the bedroom door of his uncle and aunt was closed. After knocking with no response, ng Chuan turned to grab the keys and head out to the police station to inquire about the situation.
"What’s the matter, Chuan’er? Why so anxious?"
The bedroom door opened, and his uncle, ng Yongzhi, held a phone in one hand and gestured with the other to indicate silence.
ng Chuan froze in place, then let out a long sigh of relief. Good, it’s not his uncle.
"It’s a phone eting, wait till I’m done if it’s sothing urgent."
ng Yongzhi made another "shush" gesture, turned around and went back inside, closing the bedroom door.
ng Chuan could now practice his posture with ease, returned to his room, and opened the [Three Talents Posture] diagram, practicing according to the points the head of the hall emphasized today.
After a while, ng Yongzhi knocked on the door and ca in, holding a red gift box in his hand. The front of the box was printed with a figure in a kicking pose, and above the figure’s head was a headline in small, eye-catching text—"Genius Step One, Mingde Tendons and Bones Liquid."
"This is a monthly set of Tendons and Bones Liquid newly released by Mingde Pharmaceutical. A bottle a day to strengthen muscles and bones, perfect for building your foundation now. Let’s try it for a month first to see the effect, and if it’s good we’ll continue buying more, your uncle can renew it with a call."
ng Chuan looked at the gift box on the table, feeling a bit at a loss, unsure why his uncle was doing this lately, getting him a martial arts club mbership and these martial arts big gift sets.
"Uncle, on my way back I encountered... your colleague, who was murdered."
"You saw that? Our precinct had a eting and was notified of it. When you called earlier, I was in the community activity room dancing square dance with your aunt, and I didn’t answer. Later, I received a eting notification and have been on call, sorry for making you worry."
ng Yongzhi was not a foolish person; he imdiately understood why ng Chuan had been so eager to find him when he got back earlier.
Not surprising, since ng Chuan was raised like his own son, ng Yongzhi felt deeply comforted.
"Be sure to pay extra attention to safety lately, co straight ho after school. For these few days, don’t go to the martial arts club, wait until the weekend and go then."
ng Yongzhi reminded again.
"You should be careful too." ng Chuan expressed concern for his uncle, who worked as a patrol officer.
His uncle reassured him:
"Don’t worry, although this matter is related to the Celestial Demon and indeed dangerous, my main responsibility is patrolling and investigating near Ping’an Middle School, so the risk is small. You don’t need to worry about ."
"Focus on practicing martial arts, if you need anything, just tell , even if it ans selling the pot and pans.
Uncle’s greatest wish is for our family to have a Martial Arts Family, don’t worry about other things, your uncle is looking forward to the day when you beco a Martial Arts Family mber!"
