As the director of the special investigation team, Liu Songtao is very professional in his work.

Next, he asked someone to bring a map and marked the location where the person was infected and the place where he woke up after the accident.

I stood up and took a closer look at the map.

Suddenly, a problem was discovered. The places where these people had accidents were very concentrated, and most of them were in a very remote place in the city.

I think those young people who were affected must have been controlled by some kind of illusion or hypnosis, and then taken to the wilderness. I don’t know what means were used to make them age within a day.

The other party must have a purpose for doing this.

But I'm not sure whether the person who did it was a human or some kind of monster.

After all, in the picture that Mei Ling restored just now, I didn’t even know what the other person looked like.

If it were a human, the purpose of making someone age overnight would be either to increase their cultivation or to absorb the youthfulness of others to keep their appearance young.

Apart from these two, I really can't think of what their purpose is in doing this.

Moreover, I calculated that this person could not stay in this place forever. If he kept causing trouble in the same place, it would definitely arouse the vigilance of the special investigation team. He would have to move to another place quickly to be safe.

Therefore, we must act as soon as possible to catch the murderer. If he flees to another city, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

I carefully examined the location marked on the map, then turned to look at Liu Songtao. "Well, why don't you consider sending a few members of the special task force over there to try your luck? Maybe we can run into that person and capture him directly."

Hearing what I said, Liu Songtao smiled awkwardly. "Chief Wu, we've thought about this too. As you can see, most of the victims are women. There aren't many women in our special investigation team, and their cultivation is average. Most of them are civilians. Seeing those girls age overnight, who would dare to take the risk? What if we don't find the person and become an old woman ourselves? That would be troublesome."

"Then no male members were sent out?" I asked again.

"Some men did go there, but they've been wandering around the city for several days and haven't encountered anything." Liu Songtao sighed helplessly.

"You are too determined. You must hide your cultivation and dress younger so that people won't recognize you as a cultivator. Who would dare to go up?" I smiled.

"That's what we do...it's impossible to touch it." Liu Songtao spread his hands.

"How about this, you take me to find a girl who has been infected, and I'll see what's going on over there." As I said that, I walked towards the door.

"There's one not far from here. I'll drive Chief Wu there."

So we walked into the compound, got on the broken van again, and left the special investigation team compound.

As soon as we went out, Xiaopang started complaining that he was hungry. He hadn't eaten much in the morning and it was already afternoon.

If Xiaopang hadn’t reminded me, I would have forgotten about eating.

Liu Songtao was full of apologies, saying that he was so busy solving the case that he forgot to treat us to dinner.

So Liu Songtao stopped by the roadside, found a restaurant, and took Xiaopang and me out for a meal.

If Xiaopang goes hungry, the consequences will be serious. One meal almost costs Liu Songtao half a month's salary.

However, while we were eating, we heard people at the next table chatting about how someone here had aged overnight recently.

It seems that this matter cannot be covered up. If it gets bigger, it will make everyone in the city panic, and I immediately feel the pressure.

After dinner, Liu Songtao took us to an old residential area and knocked on a door.

The gatekeeper was a middle-aged woman in her forties with a sad look on her face.

Liu Songtao directly said that he was a civil servant and was here to investigate her daughter's case.

The middle-aged woman didn't say much and let us into the house.

After entering, I saw an old lady curled up on the sofa with a sad expression.

No one can accept turning into an old woman overnight.

Liu Songtao walked up to the old lady and said politely, "Hu Haiyan, we've met before. Yanbei has sent experts to investigate your case. I hope you can cooperate."

The old lady raised her head, glanced at Xiaopang and me, and said with red eyes, "If I cooperate with you, will you let me return to my old self?"

This question sounded familiar, exactly the same as what the nineteen-year-old boy asked.

"We have to figure out the whole story before we can solve the problem. If you don't cooperate, it will definitely not be solved." I said seriously.

"I told you, I don't remember anything... How many times do you want to ask me..." Hu Haiyan looked extremely annoyed.

I asked Liu Songtao to send Hu Haiyan's mother away so that I could release the evil spirit.

Liu Haitao immediately went to chat with Hu Haiyan's mother. I immediately released the charm spirit and walked towards Hu Haiyan.

The charm spirit controlled Hu Haiyan in just a moment, and I sat next to her, made seals with my hands, and closed my eyes.

Soon, I entered the scene where the charm spirit was restored again.

The picture soon appeared. Hu Haiyan walked out of a building, carrying a bag and dressed very fashionably and beautifully.

Not long after she walked out of the building, she entered a small alley. There were many stalls selling snacks in the alley. Hu Haiyan bought some and ate while walking.

Gradually, there were fewer and fewer people in front, and at this time, another blurry figure appeared in the picture.

I saw Hu Haiyan's eyes light up immediately.

The person who was talking to Hu Haiyan was a man with a very charming voice. He asked her if she had any tissues. Hu Haiyan immediately opened her bag and handed a tissue to the other person.

But when I wanted to take a closer look at the man's face, I felt a sharp pain in my head again and the picture disappeared again.

When I opened my eyes, Hu Haiyan had fainted.

At this time, I discovered a more important problem. The person who caused the trouble was not just one person, but most likely a gang.

The boy who was attacked was taken care of by a woman, while Hu Haiyan was harmed by a man.

Perhaps there is another possibility, that this man and woman are the same person, and they may have just used disguise.

The spirit over there waved her hand and tapped Hu Haiyan's forehead, and she soon woke up again.

When Hu Haiyan woke up, she held her head with both hands and kept crying out in pain. She also said that she remembered some things and that it was that man who harmed her.
