It doesn't matter if your souls are scattered, as long as you die.

Liu Guowei ran very fast, and soon he came out with a bag of peach shortbread and headed towards the little girl.

Director Guan pulled him aside, took the peach shortbread from his hand, and instructed his subordinates, "Search the body thoroughly to see if there are any clues left on it."

After saying that, he took the peach shortbread and went to the little girl under the shade of the tree.

He bent down slightly and offered the peach shortbread to her, his stern face trying to soften with a kind expression. "Little one, here, have this."

Yun Li knew he was coming, but she deliberately kept her head down, afraid that someone would notice something was amiss.

Even if you told everyone that she was the one who killed them, probably no one would believe you.

Her concerns stemmed entirely from a sense of guilt and awe of the People's Police.

Of those ninety-nine worlds, four have the professions of public security officers and soldiers.

In two of these worlds, when peace transitioned into the apocalypse, it was these people who came out to maintain order.

She had feelings for them.

A bag of fragrant pastries came into view, and upon hearing his words, she couldn't help but look up.

The first thing I saw was a very awkward smiling face.

When Director Guan saw her staring at him without saying a word, he assumed he had frightened her.

He turned his head, composed himself, and said with a smile, "Here, take this and eat."

Yun Li's expression became even stranger.

She reached out and took the peach shortbread, then lowered her head and whispered, "Thank you, Uncle!"

Director Guan chuckled and corrected him, "At your age, you should call me grandpa."

Yun Li didn't say anything, but took out a peach shortbread from the paper package and ate it.

Director Guan was about to say something when he heard his subordinates shouting behind him.

"Chief, come quick!"

He sounded quite anxious, so he didn't have time to say anything more and turned around to stride towards the commune courtyard.

"Chief, look!"

Director Guan took a slip of paper from his subordinate, glanced at the words on it, and immediately ordered, "Ten people come with me, the rest of you stay and continue searching for clues and collecting the body."

Director Guan took the lead, hopped on his bicycle, and rode off.

The note said that these people were human traffickers and that they were holding six children captive in the basement of their hideout.

The note also included an address and the children's ages.

Several children, only two or three years old, had been drugged and needed to be rescued quickly, as no one knew whether the drug that caused them to fall into a coma would damage their bodies.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, the bicycles were difficult to ride. Director Guan ordered one person to stay and watch the bicycles while the others followed him into the mountain to rescue the people.

In this day and age, bicycles are very important assets and cannot be lost.

I thought I would have a hard time finding the right way, but to my surprise, there were red ribbons tied to the trees at the fork in the road to guide the way.

Director Guan was incredibly conflicted; this killer was truly considerate.

However, no matter how heinous the criminal, killing them privately is unacceptable.

If we can catch him, he will definitely plead for leniency and try to get a reduced sentence so he can reform himself properly.

Guided by the red ribbon, Director Guan and his entourage successfully reached the mountain valley.

"All three houses have cellars; we'll split up and go in to rescue people."

As Director Guan spoke, he went into the nearest room.

In less than five minutes, all six abducted people were rescued.

Three were conscious, and three were unconscious.

When Director Guan saw the note and left with his men, Yun Li left Qingshui Town and continued walking in the direction indicated by the blood droplet.

This time, we didn't encounter any unexpected problems on the road, and after six days, we finally arrived in the city.

The reason she has been walking for so many days is entirely because her body is still very weak, and she has to stop and go along the way.

The city was a completely different place from the towns and counties we passed through.

Lively and desolate.

She arrived at dusk, and the streets were bustling with people. Seeing that everyone was hurrying along without stopping, she knew that they were all people getting off work.

It was still light out, which was not conducive to action, nor to taking out the blood droplet to find the specific location of the person with the bloodline of Jiazi Village.

She found a corner and went into the space. Today, instead of eating the stored cooked food, she picked some fresh vegetables from the ground and caught a chicken to kill.

The vegetables were stir-fried, and the chicken was stewed into soup.

Her body needs proper nourishment, so she drinks some nourishing soup every day.

However, because my body is still too weak, no tonics were added to the soup, for fear that my body would not be able to handle the tonics.

She ate a bowl of rice, a plate of vegetables, a chicken, and soup, leaving nothing behind.

My stomach swelled up again, and I didn't even bother to clean up the dishes before taking a slow walk around the room to digest.

By nine o'clock at night, the streets were completely deserted, and they left the space.

Guided by her bloodline, she arrived at a residential compound for employees of a food factory.

Standing outside the courtyard wall, she locked her mental energy onto the blood droplet until it stopped outside a window where a light was still on. Only then did she withdraw the blood droplet and her mental energy.

In the brightly lit room, Min Hui and his wife Zhou Lanlan lay awake on the bed.

Zhou Lanlan nudged Min Hui's arm with her shoulder. "Brother Hui, can you guess who the murderer is?"

Min Hui frowned as he stared at the light bulb above, wondering how he could possibly have guessed.

After all, he had too many enemies.

"Brother Hui?"

"I can't guess!" Min Hui rolled over impatiently.

Zhou Lanlan glared at his back and then slammed her fist hard against the bed.

"Don't you have any clue? We still can't catch that killer, and we can't even sleep peacefully."

Min Hui sat up abruptly, looked down at her coldly, and said, "You think you can sleep soundly once you catch the murderer?"

Don't forget, my dear in-laws also trafficked many children. Even without this killer's threat, your family would still be in constant danger.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Lanlan also became angry. She sat up and stared at him, "You, Min Hui, what do you mean by 'we're family'? What, aren't you part of this family?"

"And don't forget, you agreed to marry into my family in order to settle down in the city. That's why my parents found you a job."

"Does this mean you're no longer part of our family?"

The mere mention of marrying into the family fills Min Hui with resentment. He had indeed agreed to it, and the job was indeed given to him by his parents-in-law.

However, there was a risk that his wife's family's affairs would be exposed later, but his elders in the clan resolved the situation.

After that, the matter of him marrying into the family was dropped, and he was treated as a normal married couple.

"Zhou Lanlan, get this straight. No matter what you said at the beginning, now that you're marrying me, you and your parents-in-law are two different families. At most, you're just relatives."

Zhou Lanlan was so angry that she raised her hand and scratched him.

"Min Hui, you have no conscience! Even if I married you, aren't my parents your parents too?"

Min Hui raised his hand to stop her scratching, but finally couldn't stand it anymore and pushed her, which pushed her off the bed with a loud bang.

Zhou Lanlan sat up, clutching the back of her head. She glared at him with hatred in her eyes for a moment, then got up and slammed the door shut as she left.
