~14 min read 2,746 words

Miao Zhiwei happened to return, and seeing Lin Jiajun, he hurriedly called out, "Partner, where did you just go? How come I didn't see you?"

"The senior from Tung Ping Chau has arrived; let me introduce you, and this is Inspector Zhang."

Miao Zhiwei hurriedly moved a stool for Uncle Feng, while Lin Jiajun nodded casually and said, "I just met them."

Miao Zhiwei immediately said, "Partner, you don't know—just now in the morgue, Uncle Feng and Wei Ge were amazing. Wei Ge just pressed it like that, and the corpse sprang up."

Lin Jiajun sat down at his desk, waved his hand, and said, "What are you talking about? We are police officers; we must rely on scientific evidence. Do you think you're telling a story?"

Miao Zhiwei hurriedly said, "It's not like that, I saw it with my own eyes. Forget it, I'll go get some things first; you chat with Uncle and Wei Ge."

After Miao Zhiwei left, Lin Jiajun picked up the file folder and said, "Uncle, Inspector Zhang, you came this time for the statement from Third Aunt, right?"

Uncle Feng nodded.

Lin Jiajun said with some arrogance, "Then Uncle, the school should have taught you that the mantra for taking a statement is to be clean, neat, direct, and fast—simple, clear, and without exaggeration. I think you can begin."

Seeing Lin Jiajun's posture, Zhang Wei smiled to himself: *Young man, you've narrowed your own path. *

Uncle Feng said directly, "I know nothing at all."

Having said that, he turned to leave.

Lin Jiajun stood up to pursue and ask, "Uncle, what do you mean by 'know nothing at all'? Is it that you don't know, or that Third Aunt doesn't know?"

Zhang Wei replied, "Inspector Lin, the school should have taught you that when judging a statement, you must analyze it calmly. Think about it slowly yourself."

Lin Jiajun said with some dissatisfaction, "We want to solve the case early too; you acting like this isn't right."

Zhang Wei said disdainfully, "If this matter weren't strange, we wouldn't have come."

Lin Jiajun had no choice but to drop his attitude and ask, "OK, OK. Sorry, my attitude was a bit problematic. If what you say is helpful to solving the case, I would like to hear your expert opinion."

Uncle Feng then stopped his steps and said, "I suspect she was already dead before she was shot."

Lin Jiajun only felt it was somewhat laughable and said, "No way, Uncle, it's almost the twenty-first century now; are you still so feudal and superstitious?"

Uncle Feng replied directly, "You are superficial."

Miao Zhiwei, who was to the side, hurriedly came over to mediate. He stepped forward and said, "It's not like that, partner, just now in the morgue..."

Lin Jiajun said loudly and angrily, "Shut up!"

Then he looked at Uncle Feng and said, "Uncle, should we hold a ritual to ferry her soul then?"

Zhang Wei stepped forward and said, "She is not a ghost; there is no need for a ritual."

Lin Jiajun shrugged his shoulders and said, "If she's not a ghost but can still move, could it be a zombie?"

Zhang Wei chuckled lightly, "Not a zombie. A corpse that is stiff after death is a zombie; one that is not stiff after death is a walking corpse. This is someone using a walking corpse to transport drugs."

Lin Jiajun looked at Zhang Wei, finding it laughable, and said with a hint of flippancy, "No way, you're so young, and you believe in this?"

Zhang Wei said with some annoyance, "What, you don't believe it?"

Lin Jiajun shook his head casually and said, "What do you think?"

Zhang Wei prepared to reach out to teach Lin Jiajun a lesson, when he heard someone shout, "Attention!"

The people in the office immediately saluted.

A person was seen pushing a wheelchair over, and sitting in the wheelchair was none other than Superintendent Ma.

Superintendent Ma said with a calm expression, "As soon as I heard someone talking about gods and ghosts, I knew it was you, Feng the Fourth, who had arrived. After all these years, you haven't changed a bit, and now you've even taught a junior."

Superintendent Ma wanted to shake hands with Uncle Feng, but Uncle Feng ignored him.

Superintendent Ma felt a bit awkward; he looked around at the others and scolded, "What are you looking at? Is there nothing to do?"

Miao Zhiwei hurriedly said, "It's not that, sir, we are discussing a case. Uncle Feng suspects someone is using a walking corpse to transport drugs."

Superintendent Ma immediately rebuked, "Nonsense, we police officers must be scientific."

Seeing Superintendent Ma say this, Uncle Feng stood up directly and said, "I'm leaving first."

Superintendent Ma immediately said, "Wait, do you really not want to hear about this case?"

"It's been so many years, come to my office to catch up. Inspector Lin, Inspector Zhang, you two come along."

Afterward, the four of them went to Superintendent Ma's office. He took out a box, pulled out a document from inside, handed it to Uncle Feng, and said, "Sign it."

Uncle Feng ignored him.

Superintendent Ma sighed, "If you hadn't had so many principles back then, you would be the one sitting in this position now."

Uncle Feng said stiffly, "Principles are principles; they cannot be changed."

Superintendent Ma wore an 'as I expected' expression, put the document away, and said, "Fine, sign it whenever you want to sign it."

He put the document back into the box and said to Lin Jiajun, "This case has been listed as top secret. Except for your team, no information may be disclosed to anyone else."

Having said that, he took out the autopsy report from the side and said, "The report is here, take a look."

Lin Jiajun immediately took the autopsy report to examine it.

Superintendent Ma said, "According to the medical examiner's tests, Chen Zhuzhu has been dead for over a week."

Lin Jiajun looked closely, and the autopsy report indeed stated this answer.

Zhang Wei smiled, "See, Inspector Lin, your science tells you the result is just so."

Lin Jiajun still refused to believe it, saying, "Impossible, the medical examiner must have made a mistake."

Superintendent Ma looked at Uncle Feng and asked, "Yes, I also find it strange. Feng the Fourth, you are an expert in this field, what do you think?"

Lin Jiajun immediately asked, "Sir, you believe him?"

Zhang Wei immediately retorted, "What, you don't believe it? Are you illiterate? Can't you read the autopsy report?"

Superintendent Ma waved his hand and said, "No need to argue. Of course I believe Feng the Fourth. Back then he was my partner; he was famous for solving cases quickly and catching thieves quickly. We solved many major and strange cases together."

Uncle Feng frowned and said, "Don't butter me up; I don't trust you."

Seeing that Uncle Feng was not cooperating, Superintendent Ma said immediately, "Inspector Lin, cancel this case and destroy the corpse."

Zhang Wei said urgently, "Uncle Ma, the corpse cannot be burned; it is a clue."

Superintendent Ma raised his hand and said, "But if the corpse stays there, it will attract media attention. Better to burn it."

Uncle Feng spoke up: "You don't have to be like this. I will certainly take action for the sake of justice, but after the truth is uncovered, you must report the actual situation up the chain of command."

Superintendent Ma laughed: "No problem. Actually, I'm doing this for the sake of society, too. Sir Lin, starting from today, the two of them will work with you to handle this case."

Lin Jiajun looked surprised and said: "You're kidding, with me?"

Superintendent Ma looked up and said: "What, do you have a problem?"

Lin Jiajun hurriedly shook his head: "No, no."

Superintendent Ma continued: "To make it convenient for Uncle Feng to work on the case, they will move into your house."

Lin Jiajun's expression changed immediately, and he hurriedly said: "Officer..."

Superintendent Ma put on a stern face and said: "This is an order!"

Lin Jiajun walked out of Superintendent Ma's office with a bitter face, and Zhang Wei said beside Lin Jiajun: "This is an order. Hahaha."

Miao Zhiwei immediately leaned in and asked: "Wei Ge, what happened?"

Zhang Wei laughed: "Uncle Feng and I will work with you all to solve this case; you need to cooperate well with us. Also, we are going to stay at Sir Lin's house tonight."

As soon as Miao Zhiwei thought of that beautiful girl, his face blossomed with a smile.

Just then, Zhong Lian came over with a cake and was distributing it to the others; as soon as Lin Jiajun saw a pretty girl, he wanted to make a move.

"Slap."

Zhang Wei grabbed Lin Jiajun's hand and said coldly: "What, trying to take advantage of my younger sister?"

Lin Jiajun had been angry, but upon hearing this, he was instantly a bit embarrassed.

Zhong Lian was even a little shy when she saw the handsome Lin Jiajun.

Zhang Wei immediately said: "Stop looking, this guy is a playboy, he's not right for you."

Lin Jiajun's expression changed, and he said testily: "You've got to be kidding, Sir Zhang, you're doing this..."

Zhang Wei looked like a rogue and said: "Doing what?"

Lin Jiajun turned his head and said: "Tch, getting ready to go home."

The next morning, Uncle Feng, Zhang Wei, Miao Zhiwei, and Lin Jiajun went out together to investigate the case.

Miao Zhiwei asked: "Uncle, where are we going now?"

Zhang Wei replied: "Where else? To find that boyfriend of Chen Zhuzhu's. Didn't you all check her social connections?"

Lin Jiajun immediately said: "We're already checking. Do you know who her boyfriend is?"

Zhang Wei looked at Uncle Feng and said: "Uncle."

Uncle Feng took a business card out of his pocket, looked at it, and said: "Let's go, to Tsim Sha Tsui."

Soon, they arrived at the gym opened by Chen Zhuzhu's boyfriend, Eddie.

However, the receptionist at the door wouldn't let Uncle Feng and the others in.

Lin Jiajun immediately stepped forward and said: "Miss, we are from the Commercial Crime Bureau. We recently discovered someone using counterfeit money, so we've come to inspect."

The female receptionist believed it immediately and promptly opened the cash box to show Lin Jiajun; Lin Jiajun raised his eyebrows at Zhang Wei and Uncle Feng.

Uncle Feng gave Zhang Wei a look, and Zhang Wei took the opportunity to peer inside; he saw a muscular man looking toward them.

Without the female receptionist's obstruction, the four of them walked into the gym, but those muscular men all looked over.

Lin Jiajun whispered: "Uncle, don't blame me for not looking after you. When things get physical later, stand behind me."

Zhang Wei sneered: "Sir Lin, worry about yourself."

Miao Zhiwei hurriedly said: "Let's investigate the case first, investigate the case first. I'll go ask them."

He immediately stepped forward to ask questions, but these people were uncooperative and even made things difficult for Miao Zhiwei.

Uncle Feng gave Zhang Wei a look, and Zhang Wei immediately picked up a nearby phone and dialed a number.

Soon, someone answered the phone, and Zhang Wei said in a deep voice: "Is Eddie there?"

The person who answered the phone immediately shouted for Eddie to take the call; Uncle Feng saw that Eddie was right there in the locker room.

Uncle Feng immediately signaled to Zhang Wei, and Zhang Wei walked forward and said: "Eddie is right in the locker room."

Da Qiang immediately stepped up and said: "Just because you're a cop, you can do whatever you want? This is Hong Kong; you have to follow the law."

Zhang Wei chuckled, stepped forward, and whispered: "You're on steroids for these muscles, aren't you?"

Da Qiang instantly lost his temper and shouted: "You actually said my muscles are fake!"

He threw a punch directly, and Zhang Wei immediately bent over to dodge and shouted: "You're assaulting an officer!"

Having said that, he landed an uppercut to the area above Da Qiang's abdomen, causing Da Qiang to instantly lose his breath and collapse to the ground.

The remaining muscular men saw this and immediately stepped forward to attack; Uncle Feng moved at once, pushing the group of men aside and rushing toward the locker room.

Zhang Wei also pushed the men aside and shouted: "Handcuff them all."

Then he chased after him.

He had just reached the door when he heard a loud bang inside; Zhang Wei walked in and saw that Uncle Feng had already knocked Eddie to the ground.

Zhang Wei immediately shouted: "Uncle."

Uncle Feng did not respond; he released Eddie, and Eddie immediately got up and ran away.

Miao Zhiwei and Lin Jiajun came in to make an arrest, but Zhang Wei intentionally bumped into the two of them, clearing a path for Eddie and letting Eddie get away.

Lin Jiajun immediately rushed out to chase him.

Zhang Wei turned back and asked: "Uncle, what's wrong?"

Uncle Feng said in a deep voice: "That man has the mark of the Nine Chrysanthemum Sect on him."

Zhang Wei said in surprise: "The Nine Chrysanthemum Sect? These people still haven't given up."

Uncle Feng said: "Let's go. In a while, this Eddie will lead us to the people from the Nine Chrysanthemum Sect."

They came out to the street, and Eddie got into a red sedan and drove away.

Lin Jiajun was furious because he had lost track of Eddie.

However, Uncle Feng did not mind; he prepared to begin the ritual, and Zhang Wei, seeing Miao Zhiwei looking curious on the side, smiled and said, "Do you want to try it?"

Miao Zhiwei hurriedly stepped forward to hold the wooden board and smiled, "Okay, okay."

Zhang Wei immediately stepped to one side, looked at Uncle Feng, and smiled, "Uncle, I'll help you as an assistant."

Uncle Feng said nothing; he looped a red string around Miao Zhiwei's index finger, then placed the blood and skin scraped from Eddie onto the index finger.

He then took out an incense stick and pricked Miao Zhiwei's index finger with it, letting their blood combine.

Then he took out a divine talisman, placed it into a cup, and lit it; white smoke emerged from within, and Uncle Feng directly used it to sear Miao Zhiwei's index finger, then quickly placed it at Miao Zhiwei's mouth and nose; he inhaled all the white smoke directly and instantly lost consciousness.

Meanwhile, Eddie did not yet know he had been placed under a spell, and the path he walked was entirely seen by Uncle Feng.

Through calculation, Uncle Feng quickly arrived at the place where the Nine Chrysanthemum Sect was hiding.

He immediately said, "Let's go, let's go find them."

Zhang Wei reached out and pulled the incense stick out of Miao Zhiwei's mouth, and a foul stench quickly permeated the air.

Fortunately, Zhang Wei had been prepared, but the people nearby immediately covered their noses and fled.

Before long, they arrived at the dojo of the Nine Chrysanthemum Sect.

However, Eddie had already been killed by Konishi Michiko inside the dojo.

Konishi Michiko already knew someone had cast a spell on Eddie, and after killing him, she had been waiting for that expert to appear.

As soon as Uncle Feng arrived outside the courtyard, he sensed something was wrong, and Zhang Wei said, "Uncle, there are twin snakes coiled before the gate, twin pillars holding up the sky opposite, sunlight can hardly enter, mist gathers and refuses to disperse, and yin energy has condensed into a pool."

"This villa is both yin-heavy and damp, forming a land of extreme baleful burial, which is just right for people of the Nine Chrysanthemum Sect."

Uncle Feng nodded and said, "Not bad, that is exactly the case."

Lin Jiajun said quite helplessly, "Uncle, Officer Zhang, if you said these things in court, you'd be treated as lunatics."

Zhang Wei ignored Lin Jiajun and pushed the door open to enter the courtyard.

Konishi Michiko in the room immediately sensed the people who had arrived.

Seeing the scenery inside the courtyard, Uncle Feng felt a great sense of foreboding; this opponent was very strong.

He immediately said, "A-Wei, be careful, the opponent is very strong."

Zhang Wei nodded and said, "I know."
