Jinyiwei's psychic case: the opening is Lingbo Weibu

"Correct!"

"Is the news reliable?"

"Absolutely reliable."

Xu Shan learned this news from Ibe Koji when he was communicating with the spirit world.

"What? Is there a problem?"

"Based on our current investigation, Wu Jingsheng only has his first wife by his side."

"No concubines, no mistresses, etc."

"He and his first wife, Zhang, were deeply in love. Even though they had no sons or daughters, he had no intention of taking a concubine."

"Ah? Doesn't Wu Jingsheng have a son?"

"You're talking about Wu Chen, right? He's his adopted son. However, I've already sent people to conduct a detailed investigation and track their whereabouts."

"It's all recorded and kept for you alone."

Having said that, Ji Gang stopped and said, "Also, there's a difficult case at home. I need you to investigate it yourself!"

"Hmm? You don't want me to get too deeply involved in Wu Jingsheng's case?"

"Haha. Even though we can see through each other without saying anything, we're still good friends."

After laughing loudly, Ji Gang slowly put away his smile and said earnestly, "This case has come to this point. Not only you and me, but even the Shangguan Assistant must report it to His Majesty for his decision."

"However, you have made such a great contribution in this case, and if you are only given a centurion..."

"Even the dog won't agree!"

When Ji Gang imitated Xu Shan's tone and said this, the two of them laughed out loud at the same time.

Knowing that he was doing this for his own good, Xu Shan didn't dwell on it.

"What case is so difficult for the whole family?"

"A week ago, young girls started disappearing one after another. When they were found, they were cold corpses."

"But on the top of his head, there were blood holes the size of five fingers."

Hearing this, Xu Shan turned his head and asked, "Magic power?"

"Nine Yin White Bone Claws!"

"To refine this technique, one needs to obtain the Yin energy of a young girl born on a Yin year, Yin month, and Yin day."

"The means were vicious and the death was cruel!"

"During the time of the previous emperor, it was listed as a taboo in the magic arts and was hunted down completely."

"In the martial arts world, it has been rare to hear of anyone practicing this skill in the past sixty years."

"It's incredible that he appeared out of nowhere in Yuhang this time."

"Dig him out and execute him immediately!"

"Yes!"

Just when Xu Shan returned to the Zhenfu Division to take over the new case, Gu Dayong hurried back to the Wu Mansion. While watching the Wu family's ulterior motives, he stayed there to prevent the Jinyiwei from raiding the house in an irregular manner.

After he had appeased Wu Jingsheng's wife, Zhang...

Wu Chen, the adopted son with a feminine appearance, walked with the steps of a pre-Qin lady and approached Gu Dayong gracefully.

"Master Gu, thank you for taking care of my father's affairs."

"It should."

"Besides, my father is afraid that something might happen to me and delay Master Gu's training."

"So, I have always been the one looking for the furnaces and tripods that the Valley Master needs."

"When will Master Gu enjoy the latest batch?"

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Dayong's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hehehe!"

"Okay, okay! No wonder Magistrate Wu dotes on you so much..."

"I know how to do things!"

"Thank you, Master Gu, for the compliment!"

"Tomorrow night! Today, we need to discuss with Governor Ren how to deal with this situation."

"Yes!"

As soon as Xu Shan returned to the Zhenfu Division, he saw his mother standing at the door holding the hand of their neighbor Aunt Wang.

"mother!"

"Shan'er?"

"Where have you been these days? Captain Ji said you were on a case. Are you hurt?"

Facing Wu Su's care, Xu Shan smiled brightly and said, "Mom, I'm fine."

After comforting his mother, Xu Shan looked up at Aunt Wang, whose eyes were still filled with tears, and asked, "What's wrong, Auntie? What happened at home?"

"Little Bean Bun is gone!"

"what?"

"He's been missing for almost three days!"

"Recently, many young girls have mysteriously disappeared in the surrounding areas. When they are found, they are identified as bodies!"

"Your aunt has reported it to the authorities, and the neighbors have all helped look for her. But there's still no news!"

"I had no other choice but to come here."

'Plop.'

As soon as Xu's mother finished speaking, Aunt Wang fell to her knees.

"Xu, General Xu, please save my little Bean Bun."

He quickly helped Xu Shan up and led her in.

After comforting her, she asked, "Aunt, do you know Xiao Doubao's birth date?"

"I know, I know."

After reporting it, Xu Shan said with a cold look, "It really is an unlucky year, unlucky month, unlucky time..."
