"Yisheng... quickly call a Yisheng for me." Dong Shan's voice was hoarse; he reached out his hand, begging desperately for help.

"Someone, quickly call a Yisheng." Zhou Xinyan was startled; if the prisoner being interrogated really died, it would be very troublesome.

"I am a Yisheng," Chen Yu smiled slightly and said, "I can tell you responsibly that it is useless to call a Yisheng for your condition."

As Chen Yu's voice fell, Dong Shan let out a miserable shriek. He clutched his chest, rolling on the ground. He felt the pain in his heart turn into the sensation of being pricked by needles in that instant. His eyes were blood-red, and the blood vessels in his eyes were almost bursting.

He dragged out a hoarse voice and roared with all his strength: "Let me go, I'll talk... I'll tell you everything I know, let me go..."

Chen Yu turned and sat down: "Wouldn't it have been fine if you had cooperated like this earlier?"

As Chen Yu sat down, Dong Shan felt his chest loosen. The pain from just a moment ago vanished instantly. He gasped for air, looking like someone who had just survived a disaster.

He was helped into the interrogation chair, and the look in his eyes as he gazed at Chen Yu had changed.

"Come over and take the statement." Chen Yu glanced at Zhou Xinyan.

Only then did Zhou Xinyan recover from her shock. She hurriedly sat at the interrogation table and began to take the statement.

"My real name is Wang Shan. I've been running with the wrong crowd for a long time, swindling people, trafficking women and children..."

"Get to the point. I only want to know about Yueyue; you can save the other matters for the police." Chen Yu furrowed his brows.

"Alright, alright, I'll talk." Dong Shan swallowed his saliva: "Li Jing and I are partners. We originally did swindling work, but half a year ago I met a Fusang person. He had Li Jing and me collect five or six-year-old little girls for him."

"Why look for five or six-year-old little girls? What are these little girls for?" Chen Yu asked.

"I don't know. He only had one requirement: these little girls could not be over six years old, had to have fair skin, and look cute." Dong Shan said with difficulty: "After finding these little girls, we could provide him with leads. For providing one, there was a reward of 100,000. If we sent them directly, the price was 500,000."

"How many little girls have you sent him? Only little girls? What is that Fusang person's name?" Chen Yu asked.

"I don't know. I only know his surname is Yamaguchi, and he has big bosses above him too. This month he has been urging us quite urgently. We provided him with information on six little girls. When it came to Yueyue, we thought she was from an orphanage, so we wanted to trick her and send her over directly." Dong Shan said with some fear.

"Six? What are the names of these six little girls? Their home addresses and contact information—tell us everything you know." Zhou Xinyan's heart stirred, and she shouted as if she had remembered something.

"I'll write it down." Dong Shan was obedient now. The police brought over paper and a pen. When he picked up the pen and paper, his expression was somewhat hesitant.

"Why aren't you writing?" Chen Yu asked.

"You, you have to guarantee that I can stay alive. Yamaguchi doesn't look like an ordinary person, and I also know he can use the Mind Control Technique." Dong Shan's hands were trembling slightly: "I'm afraid that if I write down his information, he will use the Mind Control Technique to kill me."

"You can rest assured about that. As long as you cooperate honestly, I guarantee you won't die." Chen Yu said.

Only then did Dong Shan nod. He picked up the pen and wrote down the contact information for several little girls on the paper.

Zhou Xinyan picked up the contact information, opened the door, and called in a police officer: "Go check and see if the information on children reported missing recently matches this."

"Yes, Captain." That police officer took the information to compare it.

"What is Yamaguchi taking these children for?" Chen Yu asked.

"I don't know. Li Jing and I only care about taking the money; we never ask about other things. Even if we asked, Yamaguchi wouldn't say." Dong Shan shook his head.

"Then how do you and Yamaguchi communicate? Have you made an appointment to meet anywhere recently?" Zhou Xinyan said.

"We all communicate via social media apps. Originally, we intended to take Yueyue away ourselves and send her to him in exchange for the reward, but we didn't expect something to go wrong." Dong Shan's voice grew lower and lower; this guy was feeling guilty.

Before long, a police officer walked in hurriedly. He leaned over to Zhou Xinyan's side and whispered: "Captain, the information this kid wrote down matches the information of the girls reported missing in the last month."

"What?" Zhou Xinyan was startled. She stood up abruptly, looking somewhat unsettled.

Chen Yu took the paper with the little girls' information from the police officer's hand, glanced at it, and then his brows furrowed slightly.

The names, ages, dates of birth, home addresses, and other information for these girls were all written clearly. Chen Yu's gaze stopped on the dates of birth of these girls, and his brows locked together.

"I'm done asking." Chen Yu said: "How to handle this is your business."

As Chen Yu spoke, he stood up and walked out. Zhou Xinyan hurriedly followed him out, calling: "Chen Yu."

"What?" Chen Yu asked.

"Do you know something?" Zhou Xinyan asked.

"Yes." Chen Yu nodded: "If you convert the dates of birth of these girls into the lunar calendar, there is a problem."

"What problem?" Zhou Xinyan said: "Chen Yu, we are currently handling a case; please cooperate with us a little."

"Didn't you say I was questioning your abilities? Now you want me to cooperate with you to solve the case?" Chen Yu glanced at her.

"This..." Zhou Xinyan's face flushed slightly. She took a deep breath and said: "The previous matter was my fault; I apologize. If you know something, please tell us, okay?"

"The dates of birth of these girls, when converted to the lunar calendar and combined with their Eight Characters, are all Yin-natured. Moreover, combined with their ages and months, it is not hard to see that they all belong to the 'Army Breaker Seven Kill Ruling Formation' pattern."

"What is this? I don't understand." Zhou Xinyan looked at Chen Yu with a confused expression. What Chen Yu said made her feel a bit lost in the fog; she had no idea what he was talking about.

"I have heard that some Onmyoji from Fusang both respect and fear people with this type of fate. They believe that this type of fate can aid their cultivation and also enhance their strength. Consuming their raw blood can prolong life, and consuming their heart marrow can make one immune to all diseases..."

"You mean... that Fusang person named Yamaguchi..." Zhou Xinyan's expression was horrified; she was so shocked she could barely speak.

"That's right. So now I need to quickly figure out where that Fusang person is. If we go late, not only Yueyue, but those six missing little girls may also be in danger." Chen Yu said.

"Chen Yu, you must cooperate with our police operation. We will formulate an action plan immediately. This matter is of great importance; you cannot do it alone." Zhou Xinyan steadied herself and said.
