Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.

Chapter 5, Second Visit to the Palace: I Explain Feng Shui, What Does Tomb Raiding Have to Do With M

"Name?"

Chen Yibai

"age?"

"I think it's 25..."

"Profession?"

"Officer, is being a live streamer considered a profession?"

Inside the police station's interrogation room, Chen Yibai was handcuffed and was being interrogated with a bewildered expression.

The two young comrades were still in charge of taking the statements.

Qiu Jing was carefully looking at Chen Yibai's detailed personal information, including his detailed resume.

Qiu Jing had a deep impression of Chen Yibai. She had just come to "have tea" half a month ago. He looked a lot like Peng Yuyan, but she had several gigabytes of obscene videos stored on her computer hard drive. It would be hard for her to forget him even if she wanted to.

But this time it's not about prostitution, but about suspected tomb raiding, which involves a wide range of crimes.

He's so handsome, yet he does such inhuman things; it's such a waste of his good looks.

"Officer, I just got out of the detention center yesterday, and then I went home and did a live stream last night. Can you explain what I did wrong in one go?"

After being questioned for most of the day, Chen Yibai was still completely bewildered.

"So you really don't intend to confess voluntarily, do you?"

Qiu Jing stared sharply at Chen Yibai, stood up, took out several photos from the case file, and handed them to Chen Yibai: "Take a look at these. Do you have anything to say? I advise you to confess and receive leniency!"

Chen Yibai took the photo and looked at it.

The first few photos showed a large mountain in the wild. Although Chen Yibai had never seen the mountain in the photos before, it looked very familiar. The mountain was shaped like a tortoise, and the river on the mountain meandered down the tortoise's back to its tail...

Looking at the next few photos, there's a large hole dug in a grassy area at the foot of the mountain near Guiwei!

After seeing these photos, Chen Yibai immediately realized what was going on.

"Isn't this the ancestral grave of his friend that the top gift-giver, 'Zhongyuan Shovel King,' mentioned during yesterday's live stream?"

Is this "Central Plains Shovel King" really a tomb raider who makes friends out of thin air?

Is the ancestral grave really not theirs, but someone else's?

"Remember something?"

Qiu Jing noticed the change in Chen Yibai's expression and immediately said seriously, "I've watched the recording of your live stream yesterday. Our police now have ample reason to suspect that you participated in a group tomb raiding. You'd better confess honestly and take the initiative to seek leniency..."

"and many more!"

Chen Yibai quickly interrupted and called a halt, rapidly recalling relevant legal knowledge from this world in his mind, and said, "Officer, I was just doing a live stream online to popularize feng shui knowledge. What does their tomb raiding have to do with me? Those who use kitchen knives to attack people, does that mean the people who sell kitchen knives are also guilty? How can I be considered to have participated in tomb raiding?"

Did Dou E know?

This is even more unjust than Dou E's case!

"Don't get agitated!" Qiu Jing unscrewed her thermos, took a sip of water, then tapped the table in front of her with the tip of her pen. Her intelligent eyes fixed on Chen Yibai, she said, "Your livestream explaining feng shui knowledge doesn't count as participating in tomb raiding, but..."

Qiu Jing took a deep breath and continued, "But when you were live streaming, you described the feng shui and topography of Guishan in detail, and you also mentioned the specific location of the tomb site. Just from these two points alone, it's clear that you definitely scouted the location beforehand!"

"Officer, were you listening carefully to what I just said?"

Chen Yibai asked a question in a deliberately polite tone.

"What?" Qiu Jing asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I already said that my live stream was to popularize feng shui knowledge. The topography of Guishan and the specific location of the tomb were all calculated by me using feng shui..."

They say big breasts mean no brains, and it seems that's true.

Chen Yibai was starting to wonder how this busty policewoman had managed to get into police academy and wear that uniform, since she had to repeat herself twice for something so simple.

Qiu Jing could already tell from Chen Yibai's tone that he seemed to be questioning her intelligence: "I'm a top student from a criminal investigation university, a master's degree holder in criminal psychology..."

"Did you calculate it using feng shui knowledge?"

Qiu Jing looked at Chen Yibai and sneered, "Do you think I don't know anything? If I really had such amazing feng shui skills, I wouldn't be able to see the entire mountain's topography and terrain without even being there in person? I could even accurately calculate the exact location of the tomb? Besides, I even investigated your background. You just like watching porn and don't know anything about feng shui!"

Seeing Qiu Jing's self-righteousness, Chen Yibai couldn't help but retort, "Officer, Feng Shui is infinitely mysterious. It can not only observe mountains and measure water, and pinpoint auspicious sites, but also avoid misfortune and bring good fortune if used properly! Besides, how can you be so sure that I don't understand Feng Shui? Is there a problem with me watching porn while teaching myself Feng Shui?"

"So, being ignorant isn't your fault, but showing off your ignorance is truly wrong!"

After saying that, Chen Yibai helplessly spread his hands in front of Qiu Jing.

"you……"

Just moments ago, Qiu Jing had been all poised and in control of the interrogation, but Chen Yibai's words instantly made her blush and break down. She wanted to swear but managed to hold back in time. She was about to make a move when her male colleague next to her pulled her back, and was also being frantically told that the entire interrogation was being recorded.

"Fine, you're going to keep being stubborn, huh? I gave you a chance, but you didn't know how to seize it..."

Qiu Jing suddenly stood up, closed the record book, and thought that even without substantial evidence, he could be detained for 24 hours to give him some space first.

Anyway, Qiu Jing was convinced that the guy in front of her was definitely directly related to this tomb raiding case.

As for feng shui and geomancy, those only exist in novel plots.

That's complete nonsense, okay?

"Xiao Jing..."

Just as Qiu Jing stood up, an older police officer entered the interrogation room. He beckoned Qiu Jing to the door and whispered a few words to her.

Although they were quite far apart and the whispers were very soft, Chen Yibai, with his sharp ears, still managed to hear them.

The tomb raiders in Guishan were caught by the city's criminal investigation team and all of them surrendered.

The gang consisted of four people in total. Three have been apprehended, and the ringleader is currently at large, but he is not Chen Yibai, who is currently under interrogation. There are no other accomplices...

Ah! Dou E was wronged!

Chen Yibai immediately felt relieved and at the same time, he was glad that he hadn't done any tomb raiding!

They dug a hole at night and got caught at dawn. The Six Doors were too powerful; this 'mechanism' was simply unbreakable.

Live streaming is more reliable, but it's frustrating when you encounter someone who's ignorant and likes to show off.

When Qiu Jing heard that the case really had nothing to do with Chen Yibai, she was greatly disappointed.

Qiu Jing originally thought that she could help solve the tomb raiding case and make a contribution, which would help her apply to join the city bureau's criminal investigation team. However, all her efforts were in vain.

This is mainly because Qiu Jing is too eager to improve.

Since it's a misunderstanding and the wrong person was arrested, let's release them.

Qiu Jing turned around and walked over, coldly unlocking Chen Yibai's handcuffs: "Our other colleagues just verified that this tomb raiding case has nothing to do with you. You can leave now."

Although Chen Yibai did not participate in the tomb raiding, Qiu Jing still did not give him a friendly look.

If Chen Yibai hadn't done a live stream, explaining feng shui and pointing out the location to the tomb raiders, this tomb raiding case might never have happened.

Currently, only three henchmen have been arrested in the tomb raiding case. The mastermind is on the run with the stolen artifacts. If the artifacts cannot be recovered, Chen Yibai will not be held legally responsible, but he will still be considered an accomplice in a de facto way.

Chen Yibai said that he was popularizing feng shui, so what does tomb raiding have to do with him?

And upon hearing that they were being let go so easily, Chen Yibai was not happy.

Haven't you heard the saying, "It's easy to invite a god, but hard to send him away"?

Don't think I don't understand the law!

After unlocking the handcuffs, Chen Yibai flexed his wrists and said to Qiu Jing with a serious expression, "Officer, am I just going to leave like this? Don't think I don't know anything. Before you have solid evidence, you police can only summon and question me. You started with handcuffs for interrogation and then just let me go like that? That's not in accordance with regulations, is it?"

Qiu Jing raised an eyebrow, met Chen Yibai's gaze, and asked, "So what do you want? Do you want to file for civil damages?"

"Civil compensation is not necessary."

Chen Yibai shook his head: "But I'm a man of pride, you see, my hands are all red from being handcuffed. At least give me a basic apology, right? And take me back the way you brought me here!"

Apologize?

Qiu Jing wanted to get angry, but in the end she gritted her teeth and held back, coldly saying, "If you hadn't told the tomb raiders the exact location of the ancient tomb during your live stream, this wouldn't have happened. How dare you ask me to apologize to you?"

Chen Yibai shrugged indifferently: "Fine, I won't apologize then. I'll just file a complaint against you for violating the law!"

After saying this, Chen Yibai got up to leave.

But when Qiu Jing heard that Chen Yibai was going to file a complaint against her, she immediately panicked.

Qiu Jing admitted that her case-handling procedures were indeed somewhat irregular, mainly because she was too hasty. If Chen Yibai really complained, it would definitely affect her application to be transferred to the city's criminal investigation team.

Therefore, we absolutely cannot let Chen Yibai file a complaint.

"Wait a moment!"

Qiu Jing quickly stopped Chen Yibai. To avoid jeopardizing her career advancement, she took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and forced out an apology: "Mr. Chen, I...I'm sorry! I apologize..."

"Well! That's more like it!"

Chen Yibai's smug lips curled up. Although he could clearly tell that Qiu Jing's apology wasn't very sincere, that wasn't the point. He figured it was best to leave room for future encounters and not go too far: "Let's go!"

"Where?"

Qiu Jing looked at Chen Yibai's smug face with eyes that seemed to want to stab him.

"Take me home, where else would you go? If you want me to have lunch, I don't mind..."

Chen Yibai immediately looked at Qiu Jing and said.

I was taken to the police station early this morning, and now it's noon and I still haven't had lunch. It's not too much to ask you to treat me to lunch, is it?

The request wasn't unreasonable, but Qiu Jing had to force out those apology words. Right now, Qiu Jing didn't want to see this man who looked like Peng Yuyan and liked to watch porn while studying feng shui.

So don't even think about treating me to a meal.

Half an hour later.

Chen Yibai was sent back to the entrance of an alley in the urban-rural fringe area.

Watching the police car drive away after leaving him behind, Chen Yibai ate a bowl of Chongqing noodles across the street before returning to his rented room.

After scrolling through short videos in bed for a while, I turned on my computer and logged into my live streaming account.

Since I'm just killing time anyway, I might as well do a little more livestream and brag a bit.

The streamer you're following is currently live.

Meanwhile, in an office of the Cultural Relics Protection Bureau.

Wang Haichuan stared at the computer screen eagerly all morning, and finally, when the blogger he was following started broadcasting, he immediately entered the live stream room.
