A moment later, she waved to Little Fatty and then said, "Come over here and look. Why is this pattern so strange? It doesn't seem like it's naturally formed."
Hearing Nan Yi's words, Little Fatty couldn't help but lean in to look.
Sure enough, on the bottom interior of the refrigerator, there was a black paw print with a large eye on it. It looked both dangerous and bizarre.
Seeing the pattern, Little Fatty seemed to think of something. He quickly bent down to examine the limbs and arms that had just been moved out.
After a moment, he said to Nan Yi with a hint of panic in his voice, "Nan Yi... all the body parts being iced in the fridge are legs and feet."
Upon hearing this, Nan Yi's gaze unconsciously grew more solemn...
Security Bureau of Emerald City.
Outside the detention room on the fourth floor.
At this moment, an intense confrontation was also unfolding.
Jiang Cheng, accompanied by his dozen or so top-notch men, was blocking the door to the detention room, engaged in a standoff with Xun Yi.
On Xun Yi's side, there were also many people. Besides her and the Commissioner on duty at the detention room, the heads of various departments and two teams of Commissioners from the operations department were all behind her.
Besides that, even more Security Bureau Commissioners, having heard the news, were hurrying towards the Security Bureau.
Although Jiang Cheng's side had fewer people, they clearly did not lack in momentum.
He was dressed in an outfit of blue and purple noble attire, looking disdainfully at Xun Yi, and said in a deep voice, "Xun Yi, I'll say it again. I'm taking the person with me!"
"They are the ones I caught with great effort, and you want to take them away without saying a word, isn't that a bit too much?"
Having said this, he paused before continuing,
"And more so! Gu Qing, that coward, I've come to find him. Yet he makes you stand in for him, what does that mean?"
"Does he not even dare to meet me in person?"
Hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Xun Yi adjusted the glasses on her nose and said expressionlessly, "Commissioner Jiang, I'm sorry. We are temporarily unable to accommodate your request."
"We at the Security Bureau are responsible for Awakener criminal cases. And recently, the most important case is the Flower Morning Festival."
"And those two Flower God's Holy Maidens are obviously related to the Flower Morning Festival, so we asked them to come in for an investigation, which is both reasonable and appropriate."
"Moreover... they are Awakeners, free individuals. Unless they commit a crime, neither we nor you have the right to arrest them."
"The term 'caught them' you used is obviously not accurate. In fact, if you really did catch them, we might have to investigate you!"
While the two groups were facing off, Gu Qing was sitting in the resting room of the detention room, his face filled with seriousness and deep in thought.
Having climbed the ranks rapidly in just a few years and solving many significant cases, Gu Qing's interrogation skills and logical reasoning abilities were clearly second to none.
Furthermore, he possessed a Mind Category ability unknown to others: hypnosis.
Of course, this hypnosis was not the kind that could make people do anything, but it could influence people's minds and guide them to reveal some facts and truths.
With this ability, combined with his outstanding interrogation skills and reasoning capabilities, Gu Qing usually solved most cases with ease and success.
But today... he had failed.
Because he found, no matter how he tried to guide them, the two Flower God's Holy Maidens would just smile and respond to him, unaffected by any influence.
His ability seemed to lose its effect when facing these two Flower God's Holy Maidens.
And his sophisticated interrogation techniques brought almost no valuable information from them when he faced the two Flower God's Holy Maidens.
This was a bit terrifying...
So, after reimprisoning the two Flower God's Holy Maidens, Gu Qing sat in the resting room and began to ponder over this matter...
He felt something was amiss, very amiss.
These two Flower God's Holy Maidens gave him an extremely uncomfortable feeling. They also seemed very strange.
That feeling... was as if they were not real people but Puppets instead.
But that wasn't right.
Prior to the interrogation, he had specially researched the data, background, and related experiences of these two Flower God's Holy Maidens.
Everything seemed very normal.
'Where exactly is the problem?'
'Why do I feel like I've fallen into a trap?'
Thinking of this, Gu Qing's brows furrowed even more deeply.
And considering Jiang Cheng, who was causing a ruckus outside, Gu Qing's frown deepened further.
Suddenly, he made a bold decision, "Someone come!"
Quickly, a Commissioner standing guard by his side stepped forward.
Gu Qing said, "Bring the two Flower God's Holy Maidens. Let's go see Commissioner Jiang!"
Fang Ze was still unaware of the incident involving the Flower God's Holy Maidens and was dealing with the developments that he had anticipated.
At this moment, he was still handling the man who had called out to "him."
Turning his head to look at the person who called out to "him," Fang Ze realized that he actually knew this person: it was the man from yesterday who had been intimately interacting with the short woman.
Seeing that it was this man, Fang Ze breathed a slight sigh of relief.
After all, what he feared most was encountering a stranger, which was why he had been so nervous just now.
Because if he met a stranger whose relationship with the short woman was unclear, Fang Ze might reveal his identity with just a simple word or ordinary action.
Knowing the relationship between this man and the short woman made him easier to deal with in comparison.
