Chapter 40: Chapter 39: Inquiries and Post-processing

Translator: 549690339

In the mountain forest, Shen Ziming squatted down in front of Chen Sheng.

Right above their heads, the sky rumbled with muffled thunder from time to time.

It was going to rain.

“If I am not mistaken, someone must have called the police just now.” “The nearest police station would take about half an hour to respond.”

“Once the police officers arrive, they will deduce our identities as Qi-sensors based on the traces of destruction at the scene.”

“Then they will inform the Wu'an Bureau and start questioning households one by one.”

Saying this,

Shen Ziming adjusted the gold -framed glasses on the bridge of his nose and took a look at his phone. Afterwards,

He looked at Chen Sheng.

Hidden behind the glasses, his pupils were as calm as the depths of an ancient well.

It was as if he had not just killed a man, but rather a chicken.

“We are in luck, it's going to rain soon, which will save us a lot of trouble.”

“You have fifteen minutes to get back home and clean up any traces on your body.”

“Other than your trip here, tell the truth about everything else.” “The more lies you tell, the more flaws there will be. Keep it in mind.”

While speaking,

Shen Ziming held Chen Sheng's head with one hand and pressed his nose with two fingers.

“Endure it.”

Crack!

Chen Sheng's nose was reset.

“Your injuries are not serious for a Qi-sensor, don't go to the hospital. They might investigate the records.”

“Just stay at home and recover for a couple of days.”

Chen Sheng leaned against the tree trunk, listening to Shen Ziming's words.

His gaze, however, rested on the pig-faced man lying nearby.

Fresh blood continuously flowed from the man's neck into the ground like a small stream.

His lifeless eyes still held the emotions from his final moments.

Unwillingness, anger, and disbelief were all mixed together.

He had killed someone.

Chen Sheng suddenly realized this fact.

In his past twenty-five years of life, he had never thought this kind of thing would happen to him.

Snuffing out a life with his own hands.

He should be afraid.

Or perhaps terrified.

But strangely,

Chen Sheng's heart was filled with unprecedented calmness.

Within this calmness, there was a hint of an unusual emotion.

It seemed to be”Hiss-”

The sudden pain in his arm made Chen Sheng gasp for air.

At the same time, it brought him back to reality. Shen Ziming had also reset the bone in his arm.

“You seem quite familiar with killing.”

Chen Sheng looked at Shen Ziming.

The two of them had been through life and death together, but they hardly knew each other.

“With more experience, it naturally becomes familiar.” Shen Ziming lowered his head and answered nonchalantly.

He paused for a moment then added,

“But I only killed those who deserved to die.”

“Who sets the boundary?”

“I do.”

“Alright.”

During their conversation,

Shen Ziming helped Chen Sheng to his feet. “Leave the rest to me. You go back first and don't let anyone find any flaws.”

Chen Sheng did not leave immediately.

He hesitated while looking at Shen Ziming, opening his mouth.

What is it like to be a Qi-sensor?

Why are some similar to ordinary people, while others treat human life like dirt?

What were the pig-faced man and his organization up to?

What were they looking for?

And how did Shen Ziming end up where he is today?

Chen Sheng's heart was filled with many doubts.

m me ena,

He asked the most pressing question on his mind.

“Do you Qi-sensors become indifferent to life after killing too many people, developing the illusion of being above everyone else?”

Hearing this,

Shen Ziming laughed.

He seemed to see through Chen Sheng's doubts. “You speak as if you are not a Qi-sensor yourself.” “However, your words are not accurate.”

“Being above everyone else is not an illusion, but rather a fact.”

“We, who possess great power, can do things that many cannot or dare not do.”

As he spoke,

The indifference in Shen Ziming's eyes made Chen Sheng feel quite unfamiliar.

But immediately after,

He changed the subject.

“However, within these things, there are both good and bad deeds.”

“What deeds can be done, and what cannot.” “Who should be killed, and who should not.” Shen Ziming pointed at his heart.

“How exactly to do it and make the choice is up to you.”

As Shen Ziming's words fell.

Drip.

A raindrop fell from above, hitting Chen Sheng's nose.

It seemed to be telling him that time was running out.

He took a deep look at Shen Ziming before turning around and walking towards the riverside.

“I appreciate the fruits and chocolate you gave me, but we don't have any relationship anymore.”

Before leaving, Chen Sheng waved his hand, seemingly wanting to draw a clear line between himself and Shen Ziming.

He didn't know why he had impulsively decided to save Shen Ziming.

Maybe it was because he thought Shen was a good person and didn't deserve to die.

Or perhaps it was because of the gifts.

In any case,

The two now have nothing to do with each other.

These messy things, Chen Sheng didn't want to get involved anymore.

He went to the riverbank, picked up the kitchen knife and flashlight he had thrown away, and prepared to leave.

“Brother Chen.”

But just after taking a few steps, he was stopped again by Shen Ziming.

“I said, I owe you my life.” “In a couple of days, I'll give you a big gift.”

Chen Sheng was taken aback.

“What kind of gift?”

Whoosh!

The pouring rain came down upon their heads.

The sound of the rain filled the entire world in an instant.

Chen Sheng could only see Shen Ziming's mouth moving up and down.

But he couldn't hear what was actually being said.

Afterward,

Shen Ziming ignored him and began to search the pig-faced man's body.

Only twelve minutes left.

He didn't hesitate any longer and turned around to run towards home.

As Chen Sheng moved forward,

The pouring rain washed away all traces of him behind.

After ten minutes,

Chen Sheng arrived home safely.

He immediately sent a WeChat message to Li Chenghu, recounting the events of the night.

As Shen Ziming said, he told the truth about ninety percent of the situation.

He just omitted the part where he chased after Shen Ziming after his escape.

After sending the message, Li Chenghu didn't reply immediately.

Chen Sheng took off all his clothes and threw them into the washing machine.

Wearing just a pair of underwear, he cleaned up the mud and water stains he had brought in when he entered the house.

After doing all this,

He went into the bathroom to wash the blood stains off his body.

Chen Sheng looked at himself in the mirror.

Every muscle on his body was sharp and evenly distributed in every corner.

Nowadays, walking in the gym, no one would think he was a beginner who had only been training for less than two weeks.

“Hiss—”

Water flowed over the wound, causing Chen Sheng to grit his teeth in pain.

Although his hand only appeared bruised and swollen from the surface, Only Chen Sheng knew.

Every attack from the pig-faced man had hidden energy seeping into his body.

Now, whenever he moved slightly, there would be a needle-like pain at the wound site.

This was only because the pig-faced man's attack power was greatly reduced due to Chen Sheng's ambush.

If it were the pig-faced man's heyday, Chen Sheng didn't think he would survive. “Hidden energy warrior, huh…”

“So strong.”

Chen Sheng murmured to himself.

Water covered his body, mixing with blood as it slowly flowed into the sewer.

When Chen Sheng stepped out of the bathroom, he immediately put on a sweater to cover his injuries.

At this moment,

Except for the red, swollen, and bloodshot nose, there were no other signs exposed.

“Anyone there?”

Just at this moment, a knock sounded at the front door of the house downstairs.

He took a deep breath, calming his slightly accelerated heartbeat.

Then,

He picked up an umbrella and went downstairs.

Opening the door, there were two police officers standing outside. Due to the rain and the darkness of the night,

The officers shone a flashlight at Chen Sheng to see his face clearly.

“What's your name?” “Chen Sheng?”

“What happened to your face?”

“Have you had any contact with your new neighbor?”

“Yes, his name is Xu Ziwen, and he's from the nearby school…”

“I've already told Captain Li Chenghu from the Wu'an Bureau about what happened tonight, you can verify it.”

“I'm his apprentice.”

Chen Sheng's words were mostly true.

And he subtly mentioned Li Chenghu.

After observing the house without finding any clues, the two officers left and went to the next household..
