Under One Person: God Profiler

"Pooh!"

The child looked up and spat.

Before the saliva even reached Gao Zhan, it was blasted away by the electric current and spat back into the child's astonished eyes. Seeing the child's impotent rage, Gao Zhan laughed: "Wang Zizhou is quite sensible! He actually subdued his underlings himself. No wonder these little brats didn't cause any trouble when we were dealing with Wang Jianguo."

After examining the situation, Xia Linyuan speculated, based on Wang Zizhou's behavior, "Wang Zizhou lied to them that Wang Jianguo ordered the retreat. If these children were caught up, they would definitely be used as cannon fodder. Subduing them is actually protecting them."

Gao Zhan was taken aback: "How does he know we can win? If we are taken down by Wang Jianguo, and Wang Jianguo settles the score later, wouldn't he be in big trouble?"

"So he's just gambling. If he lets them go, something bad will definitely happen. If he subdues them, the only one who will get into trouble is Wang Zizhou."

Xia Linyuan said indifferently, ignoring the children, and walked straight into the building called the Welfare Home.

Gao Zhan stood there, looking at these stubborn children, and sighed: "Did you hear that? How hard your older brother works. Can't you younger brothers just listen to your older brother?"

The child opened his mouth to say something, but Gao Zhan struck him on the neck with a palm strike, knocking him unconscious.

Gao Yuan touched his neck a short distance away, frowned and looked at Gao Zhan, feeling that he was making veiled criticisms.

.....

Cross-regional cooperation between Central and Eastern China still requires necessary mutual oversight, even if it's just a formality.

Black Pipe led the Gao brothers to deal with the children.

Ren Jian followed Xia Linyuan into the building called the Welfare Home.

In the dimly lit room, paintbrushes and household items were scattered haphazardly on the floor, looking quite cluttered. A quick glance revealed not even a proper table.

Xia Linyuan and Ren Jian exchanged a glance and walked silently towards one of the rooms. Pushing open the door, a stench of blood and decay hit them.

Looking towards the source of the aura, the boy sat on a chair on the balcony, looking quite lonely under the moonlight.

Ren Jian stepped forward to make the arrest, but Xia Linyuan stopped him: "He has no intention of resisting anymore. It's best to resolve this peacefully so that we can record any clues and testimonies later."

Ren Jian paused for a moment, then said, "You're the professional, I'll listen to you."

The two walked up behind Wang Zizhou and saw him deep in thought, his eyes fixed on the capsule he was turning between his fingers. He showed no fear of Xia Linyuan and Ren Jian harming him, or rather, he hoped that Xia Linyuan would harm him.

Are you going to squeeze it open?

Xia Linyuan noticed Wang Zizhou's struggle and asked softly.

Wang Zizhou nodded slightly: "This contains more than ten years of my father's love."

"If I break it open, I might regret what I did today, or I might not."

Ren Jian curled his lip: "Pretentious. Regret is betraying yourself. What's the point of regretting making a pill!"

He snatched the capsule and crushed it. Black liquid, containing white nematodes, clung to Ren Jian's hand, making the stench even stronger.

Ren Jian was the first to be hit; the stench assaulted his senses, his legs went weak, and he turned and knelt on the ground, retching: "Ugh! This... ugh~ what is this stuff!"

Xia Linyuan cast the Golden Light Spell, picked up the thread worm from the black liquid, and frowned slightly: "A Gu worm?"

Ren Jian was stunned for a moment, then quickly got up and looked at the little insect, saying, "Spirit Gu, this is a Spirit Gu!"

Wang Zizhou asked in confusion, "The spirit gu is..."

Ren Jian smiled sinisterly: "Gu worms that overdraw your cultivation talents."

Wang Zizhou gave a bitter smile: "I see."

"You noticed it a long time ago?"

“It was my sister who discovered it.” Wang Zizhou sighed deeply, his voice filled with helplessness.

“We were both abandoned children. My sister believed that our father raised her, so her life belonged to him. That's why she suspected there was something wrong with the medicine, but she still took it. She would occasionally take my medicine too, telling me to take good care of my younger siblings and be a good person.”

"Uh...."

Ren Jian was speechless. What kind of obedient girl was this? If it were him, he wouldn't care so much. Feeding him such disgusting stuff would get him beaten up, even by the King of Heaven.

"So your sister is repaying a debt with her own life?"

“My sister said that life is precious, and to repay a debt of gratitude, one life is enough. She said that if I encounter danger in the future, I can do anything without any psychological burden.”

"Good sister."

Wang Zizhou looked up and stared at Xia Linyuan: "It's a pity she should be dead."

"Oh, I killed her? Who is she?" Xia Linyuan already had a guess, and asked knowingly.

"Wang Lumeng".

"Would you like to have a chance for revenge?"

“If I don’t report it, my sister is dead, and I’m the eldest son in the family. I have to think about my younger brothers’ future.”

"In that case, your sister can live a little longer."

Information gap? Ren Jian's lips curled into a slight smile. "Your sister is in our hands, though she's half-dead."

Wang Zizhou was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening. He immediately smiled and said with his palms up, "I surrender."

"Yo yo yo, I'm turning myself in~ I can't wait. Look at him, he's a total siscon, he'll never amount to anything."

Ren Jian said sarcastically, his face filled with disdain.

Wang Zizhou was completely unaffected by Ren Jian's actions; instead, he gently raised his head, revealing a proud expression. At this moment, he finally showed the demeanor befitting a young man.

Ren Jian's expression turned serious: "What are you so proud of? My sister is a hundred times more capable than yours."

"Alright, stop arguing." Xia Linyuan interrupted their contest, golden light flowing from his hand into threads, and with a gentle flick, he bound Wang Zizhou, asking, "Where did you keep your medicine?"

Wang Zizhou walked to the corner and kicked aside the mattress, revealing several small medicine bottles.

Ren Jian stepped forward, opened the bottle, and after confirming that it contained medicine, he said with a grin, "With these, I estimate we can analyze that mysterious substance. I have a feeling my medical skills might reach a new level."

"Congratulations. Let's go back to the Central China company. We'll have to trouble your colleagues to handle the account cancellation and other related matters."

"Oh, no trouble at all. This mess was originally Huazhong's responsibility. I should thank you for your help!"

Ren Jian said nonchalantly. He swaggered out of the house, appearing exceptionally dashing.

Is that what he was thinking?

Xia Linyuan raised an eyebrow, watching Ren Jian's retreating figure, and thought to himself, 'Hopefully, no one will cause you any trouble after this matter is over.'

Chapter 137 Interrogation

"How are you doing?"

Ren Jian walked out of the room and asked Hei Guan'er and the others.

"You can leave anytime."

The black-handed man used steel wire to tie all the children up. He knocked out the stubborn ones who wanted to fight to the death. Since they were young and light, he could just drag them on the ground without causing much harm.

"Let's go then..."

Xia Linyuan also pulled Wang Zizhou out of the house. Upon seeing Wang Zizhou, the children from the orphanage immediately shouted that he was a traitor. The innocent voices of the children rang out one after another, like a flock of birds in springtime, making a cacophony that was quite irritating.

Gao Zhan glanced at the silent Wang Zizhou, his body radiating an electromagnetic aura that flowed along the wire towards the group of kids.

"Gao Yuan, let's charge!"

With a shout, Gao Zhan transformed into a bolt of lightning and shot forward. The child in his arms was carried behind him like a kite.

Gao Yuan pondered for a moment, then tilted his head to look at Hei Guan'er: "Do you think I should tell him that my brother took the wrong path?"

Black pipe: "???"

Seeing that Hei Guan'er was silent, Gao Yuan hesitated for a moment before calling out to Gao Zhan. The group then went together to the place where Hei Guan'er had hidden the car.

The company mail van driven by Hei Guan'er was used as a prison van. After pushing the child inside, Ren Jian clapped his hands: "I've never gotten up this early except for martial arts practice. I'm exhausted."

I wonder if my kidneys are healthy...

Ren Jian, supporting his back, walked towards the passenger seat, muttering to himself.

After checking the carriage and finding it nearly full, Hei Guan'er said to Xia Linyuan, "There's no more room in the carriage. Would you like to go back and rest?"

Xia Linyuan glanced at it and reached out to close the carriage door: "No rush to rest."

He then forcefully flicked the golden light spell in his hand, tossing Wang Zizhou onto the roof of the car. Looking at Hei Guan'er, he said calmly, "Wang Zizhou can't be locked up with them. We'll sit on the roof and go to East China with you."

"Okay, be safe."

Hei Guan patted Xia Linyuan on the shoulder and got into the driver's seat. He started the accelerator, and the car began to move slowly.

Xia Linyuan and the Gao brothers lightly leaped onto the carriage. As the carriage accelerated, a cool breeze blew in, making them feel refreshed and relaxed.

As dawn broke in the east, the long midnight hours finally gave way to daylight. The journey from the suburbs to the Central China Logistics Center takes only one hour.

Elderly people doing chest-expanding exercises walk along the path for their morning exercise; commuters hurry by, snacking on fried dough sticks and meat pies; high school students ride bicycles to school...

Xia Linyuan sat on the roof of the room, and when his eyes met theirs, he didn't hesitate to greet them.

The elderly chuckled softly, the office workers stared in disbelief, and the high school students, their eyes gleaming, pedaled their bicycles furiously as if trying to race the mail truck...

The scenery in the early morning is often more beautiful in one's imagination.

As the mail truck stopped, Hei Guan'er instructed the Huazhong employees to lock up the minors inside the truck one by one.

"Aren't you going to pin me down?"
