Chapter 841: Suspicion
"It's... I have always suspected you, because my mother was always very healthy; she didn't even usually catch a cold. She died suddenly, and I don't believe it." Wang Yu took a step back, gritted his teeth, and looked up at his father.
"If I said it was me, what would you do? Kill me to avenge her?" Wang Zhangyuan laughed.
"Is it really you? Why would you do that?" A trace of anger appeared on Wang Yu's face: "She was your wife, why would you do that?"
"Because she hindered my path of cultivation." Wang Zhangyuan's complexion was flushed, revealing a sickly look, and he waved his hands excitedly: "No one can stop me, because I am a person who is going to cultivate to become an Immortal."
"Do you know how great an opportunity this is? Do you know how many people could never encounter such an opportunity in their entire lives, yet she urged me to give it up? She thought this was evil sorcery?"
Wang Zhangyuan roared with an excited expression: "She even wanted to expose me, to report me. She was my wife; no matter what I did, she should have supported me, not exposed me."
"So you killed her? She was my mother." Wang Yu's eyes were bloodshot.
Although he was a playboy, he had very deep feelings for his mother.
Moreover, his mother's accidental death two years ago had cast a great shadow over him, and he had never been able to walk out of that shadow.
When the police ruled his mother's death as sudden, he actually did not believe it at all. Coupled with the fact that he already knew his father's behavior was strangely abnormal at the time, he had always suspected Wang Zhangyuan.
But when this matter was spoken of personally from Wang Zhangyuan's own mouth, he was still somewhat shaken and somewhat unable to believe it. This was his own mother; how could he bring himself to do it?
"She stopped me, so I had to kill her. Everyone who stops me will have no good end." Wang Zhangyuan roared angrily, his face flushed, appearing extremely abnormal.
"So, do you want to report me? Here is your phone, call the police, report it now." Wang Zhangyuan took out his phone and threw it in front of Wang Yu, saying coldly: "Now I'll give you a chance, pick up the phone and report me."
Wang Yu did not dare. He stared at the phone on the ground, his two hands trembling slightly. He felt an extremely powerful aura coming from his father, locking him firmly in place.
This aura was extremely cold and dark, making him feel very uncomfortable. He had an intuition that as long as he dared to touch the phone, his father would burst into action without hesitation and kill him.
"Dad, I just wanted to figure out what happened back then." Wang Yu took a deep breath: "You are right, this is a great opportunity for both of us. Everyone who stops us must die."
"It's good that you understand me." Wang Zhangyuan laughed, and the killing intent locked onto Wang Yu slowly receded. Wang Zhangyuan sat on the sofa with a chuckle: "Go and check how many girls meet our requirements."
"Should I check from the school's big database?" Wang Yu asked.
"Yes, my current identity is truly an excellent one. There are quite a few suitable candidates in the schools under the Mingda Group." Wang Zhangyuan smiled: "We don't have much time left, go do it."
"Alright, I'll go check now." Wang Yu nodded: "Dad, what exactly is that expert's identity?"
"I don't know what his identity is; I only know he has a nickname called Red-Faced Asura Xie Yu. He is in Shengjing, guarding a Secret Realm for that expert, and there is an Array in that Secret Realm that needs to be maintained."
"Alright, I understand. You wait a moment, I'll go screen them now." Wang Yu nodded, and a moment later, he walked over with a document.
"Dad, there are five who meet the conditions, but these girls are still young. How can we make them cooperate with us?" Wang Yu asked.
"Hehe, that's simple." Wang Zhangyuan laughed loudly: "They are all girls who haven't seen much of the world. If we use both coercion and inducement, they will naturally come over obediently."
"Time is running out, let's split up. Hmm, I'll go to the home of this girl named Li Yuan in the west of the city first, and you go to the home of this one named Zhang Qian. Invite them out; I don't need to teach you how to do that, right?" Wang Zhangyuan said.
"I understand, Dad. Don't worry, I will handle this matter well." Wang Yu nodded, took a document, and walked out.
As the father and son left, Chen Yu and Zhou Xinyan arrived, and a large group of armed police officers swarmed into the place.
But the villa was empty now. Zhou Xinyan led people to search it, and finally found the entrance to a basement.
Opening the entrance, a team of police officers went in with flashlights, but there was nothing in the basement except for five half-person-tall wine jars.
"Chen Yu, is there anything special about these wine jars?" Zhou Xinyan asked, feeling somewhat curious as she watched Chen Yu staring intently at the jars.
"These are Soul Storage Altars." Chen Yu said: "Behind each wine jar is the corresponding birth date and time. It should be that after Wang Zhangyuan detained the souls, he temporarily placed them in these Soul Storage Altars."
"Why place them here?" Zhou Xinyan asked, puzzled.
"Those who practice evil sorcery detain souls. After these souls pass their Head Seven, they will lose one Soul and Seven Spirits every day."
"And their original souls should have been used for other purposes. To prevent the souls from disappearing, he placed the souls into the Soul Altars." Chen Yu said: "The Soul Altar is made from animal blood plasma, and the birth date and time of the soul's owner is written on it, which can permanently seal the soul here."
"Captain, there really are birth dates and times on the back." A police officer ran over and said: "And this name is a girl who just died accidentally not long ago."
"Is there one named Zhou Jing?" Zhou Xinyan's heart stirred.
"No." The police officers said after confirming.
"If there are no accidents, Zhou Jing's soul must have been detained by Wang Zhangyuan, and the previous Walking Corpse drug trafficking incident also has something to do with him." Chen Yu said: "Now that this kid is gone, no one can guarantee whether he went to harm others. We must find him."
"Captain, someone has driven back." A police officer said.
"Catch him." Zhou Xinyan's heart tightened.
The one who returned was Wang Yu. This guy had left his things at home, and as soon as he entered the door, he was pinned down tightly by a group of police officers.
Wang Yu was brought to the living room and saw Chen Yu and Zhou Xinyan; his expression could not help but change drastically.
But he still managed to put on a calm appearance: "Chen Yu... Officer Zhou, what are you doing?"
"Take him to the basement." Chen Yu said.
A group of people escorted Wang Yu to the basement. Seeing those five half-person-tall jars, Wang Yu's expression could not help but turn ugly.
