Chapter 105: Arriving at the Xian City, Someone is Following!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Sitting on the train, Li Yidao was deep in thought.
After receiving the relevant information from yesterday’s Death Investigation, he boarded the high-speed train to Xian City early in the morning.
He had two purposes for this trip. The first was to visit the hospital and see
Buddha in Heart.
Since he sowed the cause, he had to accept the effect.
Even if it meant using the Hand of God once, even if it consumed ten times his lifespan, he had to go.
The second point…
He looked at the hint from the system about yesterday’s investigation, his eyes filled with coldness!
He was furious!
The Death Investigation that cost ten years of his lifespan provided him with a detailed description!
This guy had committed an extremely heinous act in a remote mountainous area ten years ago!
Originally, the four of them were small-time hooligans who were up to no good. After making a not-so-significant mistake, they chose to leave their city.
By chance, they arrived in this remote mountain village. At the time, the village had very few inhabitants.
So, the connections between families were not very close.
At first, they stole some money from a young couple’s house.
But unexpectedly, as they were about to leave, the couple returned.
Perhaps because of urgency or inherent malevolence, the four of them didn’t choose to run away. Instead, they directly tied up the couple!
Originally, their initial plan might have been to tie up the couple and run away during the night.
That way, they wouldn’t have time to report to the police.
Even if someone found them missing after a few days, they wouldn’t face significant issues.
They were just passing through this village, and they would leave and disappear. Even if the police were called later, they wouldn’t be found!
It had to be said that this outcome was one of the better ones.
At least the couple had only lost some money!
However!
When the group noticed that the village had few people and many houses were empty, they decided to aim for a bigger score!
Since they had already tied up the couple, why not steal from a few more houses?
So, they left one person behind to watch over, the one who was the youngest.
The other three were divided into three groups to start stealing.
However!
Just after the other two had left, this insurance salesperson named Zhang Wei came up an evil thought in his heart!
So, not long after leaving, he returned limping and pretending to be injured.
He said to the person left to watch the captives, “D*mn it, my luck’s bad. I twisted my foot outside. You go on my planned route, and I’ll keep an eye on these two here. What rotten luck!”
Seeing him limping, the younger one jokingly teased him and left to continue his work.
After all, if he stole on his own, he could always leave something for himself, right?
This was something they all tacitly understood.
Before asking him to stay and watch, they had promised to come back and call him after two hours.
And so, three stole while one guarded.
After more than two hours, the three people who went out came back.
However…
They only saw that the man of the couple was tied to a pillar of a house, with a towel stuffed in his mouth and his body covered in blood.
It was clear that he had been beaten.
Through the slightly open door of the inner room, the woman could be seen tied to a table, completely naked!
She was crying uncontrollably!
Seeing this scene, the three of them were in a state of confusion!
But their gazes were unwilling to move away from the woman’s body.
Zhang Wei saw their reaction and cast an eerie smile toward them.
That kind of sinister smile even made the three of them somewhat frightened!
However!
Even though they were scared, they knew that this situation had already escalated beyond any hope of a good outcome! Soon, the three of them transformed into devils!
They entered the room…
Finally, after a week, the man was on the brink of death due to their beatings!
So, on that night, the three of them went all out without restraint!
When the people in the village eventually discovered the couple was missing, they would believe that the two had left this area.
It wasn’t until an unknown amount of time later that the police received the report.
At that time, a friend of the two visited their house, found no one home, and couldn’t reach them by phone!
Upon entering, he discovered that there were some problems in the house!
That was why he called the police!
But… so much time had passed.
Even if the police filed a case, all leads were already lost!
In the end, these four individuals continued to elude justice!
And now, these four individuals had all settled in Xian City!
Zhang Wei was an insurance salesperson!
Li Liang was a real estate agent!
Zhao Qiang was a private tutor!
And then there was the youngest of them back then.
Now, he was an unambiguous hoodlum!
Not only that, he had become a ruthless killer who wouldn’t hesitate to take a life!
Each of the four had their own life trajectories.
But there were connections between them.
And when Li Yidao used Death Investigation, he found that among the four, the killer!
He was the one who had killed Wu Yaping!
He was also the one who had attacked Buddha in Heart!
Zhang Wei’s death was also the doing of this guy!
Even two other people would be killed by him!
There were no detailed reasons.
After all, these causes and effects were brought to light through Zhang Wei’s death.
This was all the information he uncovered during his investigation!
This was everything he gained from spending ten years of his lifespan!
However!
Li Yidao felt that the consumption of ten years of his lifespan was worth it.
As the high-speed train arrived at the station, Li Yidao silently picked up his backpack and slowly walked out of the station.
Looking at the clear sky of Xian City, he couldn’t help but find it a bit amusing.
Even under the bright sunshine, there were still dark corners.
There would always be those tall buildings, casting shadows for the vermin that lived in the darkness!
As long as there were people, there would be society.
There would always be darkness in society!
He casually hailed a taxi and gave the driver the destination.
Li Yidao chose to close his eyes and rest during the ride.
Twenty minutes later, the taxi stopped at the entrance of the hospital.
After paying the fare, he got out of the car.
Everything appeared so ordinary and normal!
However, Li Yidao knew that he had been targeted.
He had actually been targeted since he got off the train.
For example, across the street from the hospital, there was a gray car.
This car had been following his taxi since it left the train station.
Another car even took over the tracking at one point.
And the grey car had arrived at the hospital ahead of time to continue the surveillance.
As for the car that was tailing him, it naturally left after Li Yidao’s taxi parked.
It had to be said that the other side was very professional.
This also proved one thing!
His speculation was correct!
The situation behind this was not simple!
But Li Yidao didn’t intend to expose them right now.
First and foremost, he needed to save Buddha in Heart!
The rest… hmph!
If they really came to cause trouble for him, he would face it head-on!
Right now, not counting his original lifespan, he still had 698 years of additional lifespan!
Even if it consumed fifty years of lifespan to use Blade of Death on a person, his lifespan would be enough to wreak havoc!
