“Ok, where are you?” The woman on the other side asked straightforwardly.
After Yun Qin reported the address of the overpass, the woman on the other end was stunned for a moment and repeated, “Is that the overpass where a female Taoist priest set up a stall to read fortunes?”
Yun Qin didn’t expect herself to become a landmark to identify the location, so she said helplessly, “Yes.”
The woman with the surname Hu went to the overpass described on the phone. However, when she walked under the overpass, she didn’t see the female Taoist priest who set up the stall nor did she see the person on the phone.
Therefore, she called the person on the flyer who knew Hu Luo’s whereabouts again and asked, “Where are you? I don’t see you.”
The woman’s surroundings on the other end of the phone were a little noisy, but she could still make out what she said. “I’m in the Tea Room upstairs next to you.”
The woman turned her head and saw a person sitting by the window on the second floor waving at her.
When the woman entered the private room on the second floor and saw Yun Qin’s face, she recognized Yun Qin based on her voice and facial features. She was shocked and asked, “Are you that female Taoist priest?”
Yun Qin smiled and said, “Yes, I am. Please take a seat.”
After watching the woman sit down with a vigilant look, Yun Qin added, “But I won’t be manning my stall today.”
Seeing that the woman was still in shock, Yun Qin asked, “What’s your name?”
Since Yun Qin suddenly asked her, the woman subconsciously replied, “My name is Hu Min. Wait, you are so young. How could you have met my grandmother?”
“Yes, I have met her. She entrusted me to look for her family.” Yun Qin looked at the woman in front of her who looked somewhat similar to Hu Luo and became suspicious.
Judging from what Hu Min said, she knew that her grandmother was already dead.
But if she knew that Hu Luo was dead, why would she call Yun Qin’s phone number and attend this appointment?
Hu Min seemed to realize that she misspoke. She sucked in a breath of cold air, and then her gaze froze.
A figure flashed in front of her, and then Hu Min grabbed Yun Qin’s throat. Hu Min’s pressed her down using her weight, and a fierce glint flashed in her eyes. She threatened, “What do you know? Tell me!”
Yun Qin was just helping Hu Luo find her family so they can collect her corpse, she did not expect Hu Luo’s family to have such a big reaction. Hu Min’s actions piqued Yun Qin’s interest. Ignoring the hand that was tightly grabbing her throat, Yun Qin smiled and said, “What do you want me to know?”
Seeing Yun Qin smile, Hu Min also smiled. However, her smile was very cold. She said with a fake smile, “Do you think I won’t strangle you to death?”
“Who do you think you are? Won’t you go to jail for killing someone?” Yun Qin still had a casual look as she teased her with a relaxed expression.
Hu Min’s face immediately darkened. Just when she was about to use more force, Yun Qin suddenly condensed a strand of her evil energy in her hand and smashed it directly toward Hu Min’s abdomen.
With a bang, Hu Min smashed into the wall of the private room and let out a muffled groan.
A waiter immediately knocked on the door and said, “Hello, Ma’am. Do you need something?”
Seeing that Hu Min was biting her lips tightly and not saying anything, Yun Qin raised her voice and replied, “I accidentally knocked over the chair. Everything’s fine!”
After the footsteps faded away, Yun Qin moved closer to Hu Min who was sitting on the ground and rubbing her stomach. She asked with a smile, “Are you willing to converse properly now?”
Hu Min’s expression changed again and again. It was as if she knew that she could not beat Yun Qin, so she finally gave in. She got up, patted her butt, and scolded in a low voice, ” Turns out we’re in the same line of work.”
The same line of work? Yun Qin raised her head to look at her, but Hu Min already pulled out a chair and sat down arrogantly. Her actions showcased that she had the demeanor of a man.
Intending to get her to reveal more, Yun Qin said, “Who is in the same line of work as you? Don’t try to get close to me.”
Hearing this, Hu Min immediately rolled her eyes and said, “Do you think I can’t tell? We are all in this line of work, the death aura on your body is so obvious.”
It was true that there was evil energy in Yun Qin’s body, but that was not the same as the death aura on Hu Min’s body. She usually concealed her evil energy so that others can’t detect it. Hu Min must be relying on some sort of item to be able to detect it.
As that thought crossed her mind, Yun Qin asked, “What treasure are you relying on to recognize me?”
“Ha, you are quite smart.” Hu Min sized her up in surprise. Then, she took out a cream-colored jade pendant from her chest and said, “This told me.”
Yun Qin only took a glance before Hu Min took the jade pendant away. She could only roughly guess that it was some kind of jade that was nourished in evil energy for a long time.
Jade was a conduit for psychic energy, so it was not strange that her jade developed special abilities after a long time.
Combined with Hu Min’s death aura and what she said, Yun Qin determined that Hu Min was likely a “Gold-Touching Captain”, in layman’s terms, she was a grave robber.
This was the first time that Yun Qin saw a woman who was willing to do this kind of work. She was a little surprised and asked, “Do robbing graves earn money?”
