Chapter 40: Chapter Dajing City
"Phew~ This time they should be completely dead, right! You bastard who sold your mother for a day, what a piece of trash! These foreign devils are scum, even their names are scum!"
Su Qin took out the last golden body bag, preparing to put the body of Amon inside.
However, at that moment, the corpse, which had been restrained and unable to move, opened its eyes.
"Holy crap! What the hell?! Is this ever going to end?!"
This damned foreign devil is so hard to kill, Su Qin is almost traumatized by him. Just as he was preparing to launch another supernatural attack.
A weak, aged voice came from Amon's mouth.
"Don't be alarmed, benefactor! I am not that thief."
It's all my fault for being blind and falling for that scoundrel's trick. He put an anesthetic in my vegetarian meal, causing me to fall into a deep sleep, which gave him the opportunity to take advantage of me.
"I never imagined that the century-old heritage of my Jinshan Temple would be destroyed by my own hands. I am ashamed before my ancestors and before the hundreds of innocent monks who perished."
The old monk looked at Jinshan Temple on the mountaintop, his eyes filled with regret. He said nothing more, and voluntarily crawled into Su Qin's body bag, zipping it up. He didn't want to live anymore; he was exhausted.
Su Qin didn't care whether the monk's identity was real or not. Even if it was real, he wouldn't last long in his current state before the vengeful ghost resurfaced. Now, by voluntarily crawling into the body bag, he saved a lot of trouble. As long as the gold thread rope on the body bag was tied, he would never be able to get out.
Su Qin picked up the body bag and walked down the mountain step by step.
Liu Furong's car is still parked at the foot of the mountain; he has been guarding it there for three days.
"Mr. Su has probably lost; there's no point in waiting any longer."
Liu Furong got into the car, intending to return to the police station, where there were still many things piling up for him to handle. But just then, he suddenly vaguely saw someone carrying something walking along the mountain road.
Liu Furong quickly got out of the car, rubbed his eyes, and looked carefully in that direction. He wasn't seeing things; there really were people coming down the mountain.
Who could it be? Is it Su Qin, or that wicked foreigner? Or something else entirely?
Liu Furong quickly ran over and stopped outside the cordon to carefully observe the approaching figure.
He had short, buzz-cut hair, wore a black trench coat, and carried two gold woven bags.
"It's Mr. Su! He's still alive! That's wonderful!"
Liu Furong immediately shouted excitedly. Su Qin's survival meant that the incident was resolved and he no longer needed to worry about being punished.
Liu Furong quickly took out Su Qin's satellite-guided mobile phone and made a call.
"Hello! This is Liu Furong. I have a new report! Mr. Su has come out and is heading down the mountain!"
Cao Yanhua, who was originally overwhelmed with worries on the other end of the phone, perked up instantly upon hearing the news.
"Who? You're saying Su Qin is still alive? Are you sure it's him? If you are, get him on the phone immediately."
This is rare good news. Now is the time when manpower is needed. The more Ghost Masters there are, the safer the Dragon Kingdom will be. He has already received news of several Ghost Masters being killed in action. The situation is showing signs of getting out of control. Just an hour ago, several civilian Ghost Masters were temporarily conscripted, which will cost a lot of money.
Liu Furong, who was outside Jinshan Temple, didn't care about anything else at this moment. He quickly crossed the blockade and ran towards the person who was walking towards him.
He had clearly seen the man's appearance and was certain it was Su Qin.
"Mr. Su! It's so good to see you safe and sound. Here's your satellite phone; Captain Cao wants you to answer it."
Liu Furong jogged up to Su Qin and handed the satellite phone back to him.
As soon as Su Qin answered the phone, she heard Cao Yanhua's scolding voice coming from the other end.
"What's wrong with you? Have you ignored the Bureau's regulations? Satellite phones must be on your person at all times, and you must never hand them over to anyone!"
Su Qin threw down the body bag, absentmindedly picking at his ear, and only answered after Cao Yanhua finished scolding him:
"I remember Article 38 stipulates that ghost tamers should handle special cases, right? This time, I'm not dealing with an ordinary vengeful ghost, but a ghost tamer from overseas."
"What if I get killed? Then this satellite-guided phone will fall into the hands of foreign forces, right? You don't want anything unclean coming through this satellite phone, do you? You've probably seen plenty of cases of terrifying curses being spread overseas using sound!"
Su Qin simply found Cao Yanhua and his group annoying and long-winded. It wasn't a big deal, and he could easily make up an excuse to get away with it.
"Okay, let's let it go this time. But if you encounter a similar situation again, you should report it to the Investigation Bureau first. The Investigation Bureau has a professional analysis team that can develop an operational plan for you. Rushing in blindly like this can easily lead to trouble."
The situation is already dire, and every demon slayer is an indispensable talent. You have to think about the bigger picture.
You must return to Dajing City immediately for an examination by the expert team. Afterwards, you have an urgent mission!
Cao Yanhua didn't dwell on Su Qin's minor flaws and tactfully glossed over the matter, while also eagerly hoping that Su Qin could return to Dajing City immediately to handle other matters.
"Okay, I'll go back now, but wait a bit. I'm starving. Let me fill my stomach first. Don't bother me when I get back. I'm so tired. I've been without food, water, or sleep for three days. If this continues, I'll die of exhaustion."
Su Qin hung up the satellite phone, not giving Cao Yanhua a chance to refute, and turned to look at Liu Furong.
"Captain Liu, is there any food? I feel like I'm starving to death!"
When Liu Furong heard Su Qin ask him for food, he was slightly taken aback. He had noticed that Su Qin's face was pale and his mental state seemed to be poor. He thought that Su Qin was injured, but he did not expect that Su Qin was starving.
"Yes, I have a few loaves of bread in my car. I'll go get them for you right away!"
Liu Furong hurriedly ran back to the police car. He had been guarding the car for the past three days, never leaving it even for eating, drinking, relieving himself, or sleeping. There was plenty of food in the car, and he took it all out. In retrospect, Su Qin was his savior. Without Su Qin, he wouldn't have been able to solve these supernatural events, and he wouldn't have been able to keep his job.
Su Qin took the large bag of food from Liu Furong and ate it all up until he was full. He felt a bit stronger and his complexion improved.
"Captain Liu, I'll need to trouble you to send someone to take me back to Dajing City. I'm really tired. I'll rest in your car for a while. I won't get involved in the cleanup. I've already taken care of all the problems at Jinshan Temple."
Su Qin threw the body bag onto the police car, then leaned back and closed his eyes to rest. Liu Furong called over a young police officer, who drove Su Qin away in the police car.
Liu Furong actually wanted to personally escort Su Qin, as this would allow him to get closer to Su Qin, which would be very helpful to him. However, as the captain of the criminal police, he simply couldn't get away.
Su Qin went back to the police station, took the body bag that he had locked in the safe, carefully checked it, and found no signs of tampering. He then put it in his car and took it back to Dajing City.
Upon returning to Dajing City, Su Qin immediately handed the three ghosts over to the Investigation Bureau for processing.
"Don't tell me this bag is full of ghosts? Are you kidding me?"
Shen Liang, who was in charge of logistics, stared at Su Qin with suspicion. He still couldn't believe that this new ghost tamer had managed to imprison three vengeful ghosts in less than a week after going on a business trip.
"You don't believe me? That's easy, I'll open it and show you!"
Su Qin looked indifferent and prepared to open the body bag. His gains this time were far more than just these three ghosts, but he just didn't want to reveal them.
"Stop, stop, stop! I'm really scared of you. Is this something you can joke about so casually? Go back and write your report! I'll handle these things."
Shen Liang grabbed Su Qin's hand, afraid that Su Qin might accidentally release the vengeful ghost. This was the Investigation Bureau, and if something really happened here, his job as the logistics captain would be over. In the worst case, he might even be executed.
At the same time, Shen Liang also remembered this new ghost tamer named Su Qin. He imprisoned three ghosts during one business trip. Moreover, Su Qin's condition was only that his dark circles were a bit severe, with no other abnormalities. This was obviously different from the cold and numb appearance of other ghost tamers, which meant that he was in very good condition.
This is an exceptionally powerful Ghost Master, completely different from the other Ghost Masters in the Investigation Bureau. No wonder Elder Qin thinks so highly of him. I wonder how he compares to Zhang Jun.
Shen Liang shook his head, banishing the absurd idea from his mind. How could he compare this newcomer to Zhang Jun? Zhang Jun was the only person in the country who could control two ghosts, and he wasn't even afraid of the resurrection of vengeful spirits. He was the Investigation Bureau's golden brand.
After completing the handover, Su Qin left the Investigation Bureau. He didn't have time to care about what Shen Liang and the others were thinking, nor did he follow Cao Yanhua's advice to find any experts for any examinations.
For a ghost-controlling master like Su Qin, the thoughts and perspectives of ordinary people like him are limited; to do everything according to their methods is simply asking for trouble.
"I've exceeded my targets, so the official appointment document should be issued in the next day or two! My authority shouldn't be too low then, and I shouldn't feel as stifled as I am now."
Su Qin is currently still an intern, with the same privileges as those who are not yet qualified to become ghost tamers. He doesn't even have the authority to access data. This time, he not only solved the supernatural problem in Shipai Village, but also eliminated the ghost tamers from abroad and imprisoned three ghosts. As long as the higher-ups aren't fools, they will definitely make good use of ghost tamers like Su Qin.
Once he becomes a formal investigator, Cao Yanhua can no longer command Su Qin at will; only Old Qin has that power. Although Cao Yanhua is the actual controller of the Investigation Bureau, he is ultimately just a team leader.
Once his access was increased, Su Qin could freely view internal documents and find out a lot of intelligence that was usually blocked, which was very important to him.
