“The people who came here are all from this neighborhood. When you drove over, I took a second look at you guys because you guys were good-looking.” The girl stuck out her tongue mischievously. “Actually, I was just guessing.”
Shen Chun smiled and nodded. “My name is Shen Chun. This is indeed my husband.”
Fu Shi smiled and nodded at the girl.
The girl introduced herself. “My name is Chen Jin.”
After a while, the boss brought the wontons over and Shen Chun couldn’t wait to try them. She said that they were delicious and quickly asked Fu Shi and Luo Yong to try one.
Right on the heels of that, Luo Yong also ate one and said in disbelief, “Yes! It’s delicious.”
“Hehe, it’s delicious, right?” Shen Chun hurriedly asked Fu Shi to try it, but she realized that Chen Jin, who was beside her, suddenly had a nosebleed.
Chen Jin realized it herself and quickly took out a piece of toilet paper from her pocket to wipe it. Fortunately, it didn’t flow much. After wiping it once, it stopped flowing.
Shen Chun sized her up carefully and asked with a frown, “Have you been having hormonal imbalance recently?”
Chen Jin also found it strange, but she shook her head and said, “No, my diet has always been very light.”
Shen Chun used the question to attract Chen Jin’s attention. When she leaned behind Chen Jin and saw the lump of black sinister energy resting on the back of her neck, she waved her hand gently.
The black energy disappeared, and Chen Jin’s nose stopped bleeding.
Shen Chun asked again, “Then, did anything unusual happen around you?”
After Chen Jin lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, she suddenly thought of something. “Ah, yes. I heard that someone in my neighborhood jumped off a building.”
Shen Chun and Fu Shi looked at each other tacitly. “Jump off a building? Do you know the exact situation?”
Chen Jin shook his head. “But the police arc already investigating.”
In the end, Shen Chun suggested taking a look at the situation. Although Chen Jin didn’t understand, she still agreed to bring Shen Chun to her neighborhood.
As soon as she entered the neighborhood, she realized that there were police cars parked at the entrance. There were people in police uniforms investigating the event location in the building in front.
After Shen Chun took a closer look at the police officers in front of her, she seemed to see an acquaintance. After taking a few steps closer to confirm, she shouted, “Officer Ling!”
Ling Han turned around upon hearing this, and was similarly a little surprised. “Miss Shen?”
Shen Chun pulled Fu Shi into the cordon. When she turned around and realized that Luo Yong and Chen Jin weren’t inside, she asked, “Aren’t you guys coming in?”
Chen Jin smiled. “I won’t go in.”
Luo Yong waved his hand. After all, things Shen Chun were interested in usually weren’t normal. “I’ll wait here.”
Surprisingly, the two of them spoke at the same time.
Since they were unwilling, Shen Chun naturally wouldn’t force them.
As she looked down at the pool of bright red blood on the ground, she couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
Until she heard Ling Han ask her, “Miss Shen, what are you looking at?”
After she looked up and realized that Fu Shi was also looking at her in confusion, she immediately understood that they couldn’t see the blood.
Shen Chun smiled and was about to brush this question off. “Oh, nothing. Did you find anything?”
Ling Han smiled bitterly and said, “No, we’ve been investigating here for two days, and we’ve watched the surveillance footage several times, but we still can’t explain why the corpse disappeared into thin air.”
Shen Chun and Fu Shi asked at the same time, “The body disappeared?”
“Yes.” As he spoke, Ling Han took out his phone, opened the video, and showed it to them. Then, he continued to explain, “The surveillance footage has no traces of being altered by anyone, but after this person jumped down, not only did he leave no traces, but his corpse also disappeared. This is the first time I’ve seen a situation where someone’s corpse disappeared into thin air.”
Of course, because it wasn’t a natural death at all.
Shen Chun suggested, “Can I go up and take a look?”
“Sure.” Because of what had happened last time, Ling Han had already completely changed his opinion of Shen Chun. Without even thinking, he agreed to her request.
With Ling Han leading the way and Shen Chun in second, Fu Shi followed behind Shen Chun.
Ling Han knocked on Room 203’s door. “Hello, this is the police.”
After a while, the door was opened.
That person observed the three of them very warily. She didn’t speak and just stared at them.
Shen Chun frowned at this strange person.
Finally, the strange person said in a low and hoarse voice, “Who are you?”
Ling Han was shocked, and with a puzzled expression, he said, “I’m Ling Han. I came here yesterday.”
The woman’s eyes darted around a few times, then she froze for another minute before opening the door and letting them in.
As for Shen Chun, she had been staring at the woman’s withered hand ever since she opened the door..
