"The so-called soul replenishes the soul."
Qi Zixiao shook his head slightly: "It means that they use those evil methods to kill people with the same fate as them, that is, people with similar fates, such as being born on the same day and at the same time, and then use various means to devour the other person's soul, so as to achieve the purpose of completing their own soul."
"It's a pity that those so-called 'magic spells' are just made up by people. I didn't expect that there are people who actually believe them and do them."
Wu Guodong's face turned pale when he heard this: "Is this really the case?!"
"this… "
Qi Zixiao looked at Mao Xiaohua who lowered her head, and spoke slowly without any hurry.
"What do you think, Mao Xiaohua?"
“It’s a nice story, but what does it have to do with me?”
Mao Xiaohua raised her head, her face cold: "Are you trying to frame me for having killed someone? I am a legal citizen!"
"Unfortunately, you are not now."
"You have a Buddha statue in your room, right? It seems to be an evil Buddha."
"How about we smash the Buddha statue open, take out the contents of its stomach, and do some tests, and then you can explain it to me?"
"you!!!"
Mao Xiaohua was completely panicked: "How did you know?!"
"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it. Everything about you cannot escape my eyes." Qi Zixiao spoke again, appearing mysterious and profound.
"You can continue to argue and see if I can find other evidence?"
While talking...
Buzz!
Qi Zixiao's eyes 'shone' and two streams of true energy shot out!
Boom!
The security door made a muffled sound.
Mao Xiaohua and Wu Guodong both looked and found that there were two concave round holes on the security door!
hiss!!!
Wu Guodong was so frightened that he gasped, while Mao Xiaohua was stunned for a moment and then exploded.
"Spell?!"
“There really is magic!!!”
"But why, why do I fail every time I try?!"
"Why do I always look like this? I have tried all kinds of magic, why? Why can't I ever succeed?!"
“Why!!!!”
Looks like madness.
No, Mao Xiaohua is really crazy.
He is just an ordinary person.
But because of his dwarfism, he hated himself very much and thought of countless ways to "cure" himself.
Unfortunately, medicine is useless, so he can only take his own way and use "evil methods" to change everything!
However, no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't change anything.
There must be something pitiful about a hateful person
Qi Zixiao didn't know whether this was right or wrong, but was Mao Xiaohua pitiful? Maybe in the eyes of others, she was pitiful, but in Qi Zixiao's view, even if she was pitiful, it was not a reason for him to harm others!
"The spell clearly exists!"
Mao Xiaohua burst into tears.
"I have tried to replenish one soul with another, tried to raise a little ghost, tried..."
"But why? Why do I fail every time? What did I do wrong? Why does God treat me like this?!"
"Yes, I killed that boy, but what's my fault? He and I have the same fate, but he is fine. Why can he grow up healthily, while I will always be like this until I die of old age?"
"I just want to grow up, what's wrong with me!!!"
He yelled at the top of his lungs, completely mad, and told everything directly.
Just because he really couldn't hold it anymore.
In the past, he had tried many times, using various methods, to heal himself.
But he failed every time, but he could still endure it, and even told himself again and again that magic was not so easy to perfect.
Even... later he became desperate and thought that magic was fake and did not exist.
At this moment, it has been less than a month since he accepted the idea that magic is fake, otherwise, those things would not still be left at home.
But now, just when he was desperate and ready to give up, he saw the real "magic".
How could Mao Xiaohua accept this
He... really couldn't hold it anymore.
“Crack!”
Wu Guodong was handcuffed directly.
Although this man seems a little pitiful at first glance, in fact, his criminal facts cannot be ignored.
Moreover, he must not be allowed to go unpunished.
After all, Mao Xiaohua said that he had done this more than once!
One of the times, he brutally killed the victim, but what about the next few times? !
Bang!
The door was closed and sealed. Wu Guodong immediately contacted the local police station and came to conduct a thorough search. He took the almost crazy, mumbling Mao Xiaohua into the car, and Qi Zixiao drove back overnight...
"That's right."
On the way, Wu Guodong suddenly remembered something and asked, "What's in his Buddha statue?"
"The skeleton of a baby less than one month old."
Qi Zixiao responded softly.
"this?!"
Wu Guodong's face changed immediately.
…
The next day, morning.
Qi Zixiao received a call.
"After interrogating him overnight, he confessed everything."
Wu Guodong's voice was a little tired: "This guy actually... killed five people."
"I see." Qi Zixiao seemed much calmer: "What's the result?"
"It will definitely be the death penalty, no doubt about it. And because the case happened so long ago, and some things are not easy to make public, so... there will be no court trial or anything, but it will be handled in a low-key manner."
"Not open to the public?"
Qi Zixiao frowned slightly.
"What about the deceased's family?"
"We have already contacted you."
"But the identities of the other four are still unknown and need to be investigated. Only the child's parents have been contacted."
"Besides, I asked someone to contact them when I came back last night. They are now in our bureau. They want to see you."
"Isn't this necessary?" Qi Zixiao hesitated slightly.
Meet up? It doesn't seem necessary.
"They are very determined, aren't they?"
"Then let's meet."
Qi Zixiao drove to the police station.
Wu Guodong had people guarding the door. A young policewoman, upon seeing the G-Class and the intimidating license plate, immediately came over.
"Advisor Lin, Director Wu sent me to pick you up."
Consultant Lin
Qi Zixiao smiled slightly: "Take me there."
…
Inside the meeting room.
Wu Guodong sat in silence.
Opposite him was a middle-aged couple, probably in their fifties.
Judging from their attire, their lives were pretty good, but at this moment, their eyes were red and tears were streaming down their faces.
Crunch.
The door opens.
Wu Guodong glanced and said, "Someone is coming."
Qi Zixiao had just come in when he heard a plop.
The old couple knelt down directly in front of him.
"useless."
She even went forward to help people.
"Thank you!"
The old couple's faces were full of tears: "Really, thank you."
"You better get up and talk."
Qi Zixiao forcibly pulled the two up...
"We never believed that our children would commit suicide."
Qi Zixiao was too strong and they couldn't kneel down, so they gave up and slumped in the chairs, whispering with tears in their eyes.
"But the police insisted that it was suicide..."
Wu Guodong was very embarrassed and could not help but slip away to "hide from the limelight".
Only three people were left in the house.
"Over the years, we have been praying that someone can find the murderer and seek justice for our children. For this, we are willing to give everything!"
"It's a pity that year after year, there was no news. We old couple thought that this matter had been forgotten."
"Until last night..."
They spoke alternately, tears flowing uncontrollably.
"Really, thank you!"
"If you need anything, please let us know. We..."
"That's too much."
Qi Zixiao shook his head and chuckled: "I am a 'scientific' consultant for the police station, the kind that gets paid, and investigating cases is part of my job."
"No… "
"We old couple understand that this kind of case, logically speaking, is basically buried under the surface, and no one will investigate it again in their lifetime."
The old couple were both understanding people. At this moment, they said solemnly: "Since you have found out the truth and sought justice for our son, you are our benefactor."
"Now, we old couple can let it go..."
"That poor child, ah."
Qi Zixiao could see that the two had no children... In other words, after their son was murdered, they had been...
"The dead are gone, let's look at it more positively."
"I've let it go. I've let it go."
"Since you don't intend for us to do anything..."
The man smiled, but tears were still on his face: "There's nothing we can do, but we have been vegetarian and chanting Buddhist scriptures all these years."
"If you don't mind, I hope you can tell us your name. After you go back, we will create an immortal position for you. From now on, the green lamp and ancient Buddha will always be by your side, praying for you every day."
"… "
Qi Zixiao was about to refuse.
But suddenly he discovered that a cause and effect line had been created between the couple, and himself, or rather, between him and Lin Fan!
Moreover, it’s very deep!
In fact, because of the appearance of this causal line, she felt somewhat happy...
"This is?!"
Qi Zixiao was startled, then he understood: "The power of merit? No, it should be said that it is similar to the power of faith in the Western Wasteland?"
The merits are too great, and they are controlled by the way of heaven...
It is naturally impossible to give merit to two ordinary people.
However, they gave birth to a power similar to faith, and the destination of that power, along the line of cause and effect, was connected to "themselves"!
"However, this can also be considered a 'weakened version' of merit, right? It's just weakened to an unknown degree."
"I found the murderer for the child and wiped out the cause of the hatred, and his parents are very grateful to me..."
"To worship someone with the rank of longevity is indeed like one of the cultivation methods of those great monks in the West. The power of faith..."
"Perhaps, if the Earth's spiritual energy is still insufficient in the end, I can also try to develop in this direction?"
Faith and merit!
Saving mortals or helping mortals, that kind of "merit" is too small, too small, but if accumulated, it may not be useless!
If you add merit...
"In that case, I have to solve more cases as well."
She came back to her senses and said to the old couple, "My name is... Lin Fan."
