Rebirth: I am the boss uncle

Inside the police station, Li Chengrui shook his head as he looked at the frantic Gao Chenjin. It seemed he couldn't get any useful information from him. After thinking for a moment, he stood up and walked to another interrogation room...

In another interrogation room, two police officers exchanged a glance, both seeing the frustration in their eyes. This man had spoken a great deal since his arrival, but he remained silent, simply staring intently at the small bottle in his hand. No matter how the others questioned him, he simply refused to speak...

Chen Yan held the small bottle tightly in his hands, his eyes full of satisfaction. He had his lover back...

Li Chengrui came in and saw this scene. The two policemen sat opposite Chen Yan, helpless, while Chen Yan just stared at the bottle in his hand and smiled foolishly.

"Director..."

When the policeman saw the chief coming, he immediately stood up.

Li Chengrui nodded, waved his hand and motioned them to sit down, then sat aside and looked at Chen Yan for a long while before speaking.

"Chen Yan... from Luzhou City. Orphaned since childhood, he was adopted by the Xuanming Taoist Temple... Oh! He's a Xuanshi himself... Honestly, I'm really curious: do ghosts and gods really exist in this world?"

Chen Yan on the opposite side was unmoved, just staring at the bottle in his hand expressionlessly. Li Chengrui saw this and continued the topic without any embarrassment.

"The information above shows that you left your master's sect at the age of 17 and came down the mountain to 'exorcise demons and monsters'? But why did you choose to do such a thing in the end? Was it because you had a lover? The girl you liked was called Shanana?"

Hearing his lover's name, Chen Yan raised his head and looked at the police chief in front of him.

"I've said everything I should and shouldn't have said. I've also said what you shouldn't have said. Whether you believe me or not is up to you. I'm deeply sinful now... I don't have many days left to live. I'll do my best in these final moments... to accomplish what she wants!"

Li Chengrui frowned when he heard a keyword.

"She (he)? Who is it? Is there someone behind this?"

Chen Yan looked at Li Chengrui, then at the surveillance camera not far away, and smiled lightly, but this smile looked particularly strange on his withered face.

"Can you... make the decision?"

Li Chengrui nodded, thinking that Chen Yan would say something closer to the truth of the case.

"I can......"

Chen Yan didn't react much after hearing this, but leaned lazily on the chair, still holding the bottle tightly in his hand.

"Let me tell you a story... More than 30 years ago, I was abandoned by my parents right after I was born because of constant strange things. In the end, my master saved me and brought me to a Taoist temple to raise me... I always thought I was the special one, that my master raised me personally, that he picked up a child, but later I found out that I wasn't special, nor was I the only one... That old man was so kind, that every time he went out he would pick up a child, raise him personally, and teach him carefully... He gave the homeless children a home and let them feel the warmth of the world, but I didn't want to give up. I wanted him to give me all his love. Although he gave me a lot of warmth, I still felt it was not enough, so I wanted to be more capable. This... That way he would favor me a little more, but... I wasn't the most talented, and for this little selfish motive, I didn't hesitate to secretly learn forbidden techniques, wanting to become the best. Sure enough, forbidden techniques were very useful, and my skills increased greatly. But my master seemed to see the clues, but he didn't blame me. Instead, he asked me to go down the mountain to practice, wanting me to experience the ups and downs of life first, to become a living person... But I didn't understand at the time, I thought he didn't want me anymore... The loneliness in my heart deepened, because of the side effects of forbidden techniques, I couldn't control my emotions, and it was common for me to go astray. But just then, I met a girl. She saved me, gave me a small house to live in, and often brought me food. Over time, we fell in love."

Chen Yan leaned back in his chair and talked, his eyes slightly narrowed, as if immersed in his own memories, his fingers constantly stroking the bottle in his hand.

Li Chengrui looked at Chen Yan like this and did not interrupt him, but listened to his story quietly.

Seeing that Chen Yan didn't speak for a long time, the police officer beside him couldn't help but get anxious, but he still patiently asked softly:

"So what happened next? What happened?"

Chen Yan leaned back in his chair, looking at the light above his head.

"One day, she was in a car accident on her way to work and was seriously injured. She was in the hospital for emergency treatment, but we didn't have much money at the time. In order to save her, I did a lot of bad things, which led to me meeting Gao Chenjin. He gave me a lot of money and asked me to help him cover up some of the traces. For Nana, I had no choice... But God seemed to blame me for helping the evil man do so many evil things, and Nana died in the end... I had originally planned to go to accompany Nana after burying her, but Gao Chenjin used some means to replace Nana's ashes, and asked others to help make it impossible for Nana to reincarnate through my salvation... In order to obtain Nana's ashes, I could only help Gao Chenjin continue to do evil..."

At this point, Chen Yan sat up straight and looked at the old man in front of him.

"It was my fault that those useless people in Mucheng couldn't find Yin Shuyu. But I... did leave some information. If they had investigated carefully, they would have found Yin Shuyu. The only thing to blame is that they are a bunch of useless people. They take salaries but do nothing. They occupy positions but don't sympathize with the suffering of the people... They don't do their best to fulfill their duties..."

Li Chengrui clenched his fists tightly.

"The death of that child..." (Does it concern you?)

Chen Yan knew what Li Chenrui meant, but he shook his head and nodded.

"I didn't expect that child to die. I thought that pervert Gao Chenjin had trained her step by step to become the most perfect student in his heart, and he would never touch her again, because she was his most perfect work. How could he bear to destroy her? Maybe after a few years, through the efforts of the Yin family, the child can see the light of day again, or I can find a way to get what I want and save her, but... the idea is beautiful... the child is too stubborn and wants to go home. Her repeated escapes angered Gao Chenjin..."
