Archaeology is archaeology, why dig me up?

Chapter 15 Dark Rain

Upon hearing this, Chu Yue fell into deep thought.

Her worst fears came true.

"Captain Lu, have you confirmed the identities of these people?"

"Reporting to Captain Chu, I understand."

"Huang Long is one of the criminal gangs in Jiangzhou City. He and his thugs are known for committing all sorts of evil deeds in Jiangzhou City."

"But they always manage to destroy the evidence. Even if we find a little evidence, they will just send someone to take the blame."

"In addition, the Huang family's power structure is complex, and they have interests entangled with many high-ranking individuals."

"We had a hard time wiping them out in one fell swoop before."

"This man is called One-Eyed."

"A martial artist at the Martial Master level."

"He has a lot of blood on his hands and has always been a wanted target of our Jiangzhou Public Security Bureau."

"Several times we tried to arrest him, but he managed to injure several police officers and escape."

"Okay, I understand."

"In that case, these people deserved to die."

"Captain Lu, I would like to borrow the police force of Jiangzhou City to help me find someone."

"It's him."

Chu Yue held a phone in her hand, and the screen displayed a photo of Gu Lingchen.

When Lu Qianqian saw the photo, her first reaction was that it was a still from some fantasy drama.

Because the people in the photo don't look like real people at all.

"Captain Chu, this person..."

"Do you suspect he's a suspect in this case?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yue coldly replied, "Captain Lu, don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."

"Find him for me as soon as possible."

"Furthermore, this person is extremely dangerous. Once you find him, do not act rashly and notify me immediately."

"We will be staying at the Jiangzhou Public Security Bureau during this period."

"Yes, Captain Chu."

"It's so good that you can stay."

"There's another case we've been wanting you to handle."

"That case is even more difficult than the one we're dealing with now."

"Our bureau chief almost lost all his hair because of this."

"Oh?" Chu Yue and Zhang Daqiang became interested.

"Tell me, what case is it?"

"Reporting to Captain Chu, it's the 413 mummified corpse case from a few months ago."

"We have already reported this case, but there has been no response from higher authorities for a long time."

"Starting a few months ago, young women have been mysteriously disappearing in many villages and counties under the jurisdiction of Jiangzhou City. When they were found, they had all turned into mummified corpses."

"Our police have been investigating for several months and have only found that almost every rainy night, a line of people in black robes would parade through the streets in many cities."

"Every time they parade through the streets, a strange musical melody comes to mind, and after it ends, at least one young woman will disappear."

"We have taken many measures, such as staking out, tracking, and even sealing off the entire city, but as soon as those people realize something is wrong, they scatter and flee, as if they have vanished into thin air."

"What?"

"Such a thing really happened?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yue frowned, knowing from the words that this case was not simple.

Qin Junnan then ruffled his hair and stepped forward, saying, "Yes, Captain Chu."

"I was responsible for the autopsies of several of these bodies. These women lost blood and body fluids very rapidly in a short period of time, and their deaths were very strange."

"Captain Lu, hand over the case files to me when you get back."

"I'd really like to meet them."

"Now everyone go about their own business."

"Yes, Captain Chu."

.........

Inside a rented room in the Sunshine Community.

After Su Qianxue and Gu Lingchen opened the door, Tang Xiaoxiao rushed into Su Qianxue's arms.

She was extremely restless for those few hours.

"Waaaaah, Qianxue, you're alright, that's great!"

"Xiaoxiao, I'm fine. Gu Lingchen saved me."

"Don't cry, look, I brought you your favorite snail rice noodles."

"wrong."

"wrong."

Tang Xiaoxiao suddenly broke free from Su Qianxue's embrace with a start, looking at Gu Lingchen with a terrified expression.

"Chiyuki, do you know?"

"He..., he..., he..."

"Hey, I'll show you the video, my live stream replay."

Tang Xiaoxiao took out her phone, and in the video, she finished answering the call.

As soon as Gu Lingchen stood up, the glass cups, light bulbs, teapots, and other items in the room shattered instantly.

Then, Gu Lingchen's figure disappeared from the spot.

Tang Xiaoxiao thought Su Qianxue would be very surprised and, like herself, doubt whether Gu Lingchen was a human or a ghost.

What could be seen was Su Qianxue's reddened eyes and tears streaming down her face.

"Qianxue, why are you crying?"

"I'm fine, just smile."

Thank you for today.

"I'll go tidy up the storage room; this room will be for Gu Lingchen to sleep in from now on."

"Xiaoxiao, I'd like Gu Lingchen to stay here. Would you think it would be inconvenient?"

"As for rent, I can pay more each month."

"I can find another part-time job."

Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaoxiao hugged Su Qianxue tightly, blushing as she replied, "Qianxue, what are you saying?"

"We're best friends, you're really treating me like an outsider."

"Of course, Gu Lingchen can stay as long as he wants."

"I'll help you pack later."

"Alright, silly, stop crying. You must have been terrified today."

"Come on, let's eat snail rice noodles together."

the next day.

Li Jie's personal luxury villa in the city.

Li Jie is still in a wheelchair.

"What?"

"Huang Long is dead?"

Li Jie was so frightened that his face turned pale.

"Yes, Young Master Li, according to our acquaintances at the Public Security Bureau, not only Huang Long, but also his sister Huang Fei and his one-eyed henchman are all dead."

"He sent people to kidnap Su Qianxue yesterday, and then this happened."

"Young Master Li, could it be the person who hit you?"

"he?"

Li Jie thought of Gu Lingchen, and for some reason, at this moment he felt a chill down his back and his scalp tingle.

Who is Huang Long? He's the underground emperor of Jiangzhou City. Everyone in the underworld knows him, and no one dares to mess with him.

Yet, this very person died overnight.

It's absolutely terrifying to think about.

"Quick, the phone, give me the phone."

"We mustn't provoke him anymore, we mustn't provoke him anymore."

After getting the phone, Li Jie shakily dialed an encrypted number. When the call connected, he said guiltily, "Hello, can I cancel the pursuit of Gu Lingchen?"

"I'll just forget about the money."

There was silence on the other end of the phone, and Li Jie's heart raced.

After a few breaths, a hoarse, calm old man's voice replied from inside: "Rain in the dark courtyard, flowers fall unnoticed."

"The assassin Erlang Xiao from Dark Rain has accepted the order."

"There's no reason to cancel it."

"Dear Dark Rain Black Gold Member"

"Dark Rain's rule is that once an assassination mission is accepted, it will not be abandoned halfway."

"Let's wait for news."

After saying that, the person on the other end of the phone hung up.

"Hey, hey, feed."

"No, no!"

"Er Langxiao?"

"Bring the computer over here quickly."
