"What’s the matter? What’s behind the cabinet?"
"Jumping three feet high, could there be a giant cockroach inside?"
"Hurry up and tell us, what’s in there!"
"Do you think it could be a corpse behind the cabinet?"
"If there really is a corpse, then who’s the murderer?"
"I’ll bet fifty cents that it’s definitely related to the landlord!"
The viewers were all discussing, while Lu Heng calmly asked, "Friend, what did you see behind the cabinet?"
Feng Lingling swallowed hard, his face pale.
After a long while, he barely managed to suppress his fear and said in a trembling voice, "Master, I...I saw a human hand bone..."
"All white and scary!"
"Master, what should I do now?"
Feng Lingling never dreamed that the apartment he rented would actually have a corpse!
No wonder he always felt chills and shivers!
Maybe his recent bad luck was because of this.
"Call the police!"
Lu Heng replied simply with two words.
"Yes, yes, call the police immediately!"
Feng Lingling quickly dialed the emergency number and briefly described the situation in the rental apartment.
"Um...Master, should I log off now?"
After reporting to the police, Feng Lingling asked tentatively.
Upon hearing this, the viewers were displeased.
"What do you mean log off, keep going!"
"Yes, we also want to see the investigation process."
"I suspect the murderer is your landlord, this guy must have killed someone and then hid the body behind the kitchen cabinet."
"I also think the landlord is likely involved, even if he’s not the killer, he must know something."
"Master, you’re amazing!"
"It used to be live streams catching cheaters, today it’s live streams solving a case, isn’t this more interesting than the Spring Festival Gala?"
Seeing the viewers all wanting the stream to continue, Feng Lingling couldn’t bring himself to disconnect.
Moreover, with so many netizens keeping him company, he felt much more at ease.
"Knock knock knock..."
At this moment, there was a knocking sound from outside.
"Hello, is Mr. Zhao Feng here? We are from the West City Police Station!"
Hearing that it was the police knocking, Feng Lingling hurried to the entrance to open the door for the officers.
"Mr. Zhao, can you describe the situation you encountered in detail?"
A middle-aged police officer asked.
"The situation is like this..."
Feng Lingling recounted what he had said over the phone.
"Fortune-telling?"
The officers exchanged glances, each showing a look of surprise.
"Yes, yes, the online master helped me find the body."
Feng Lingling nodded repeatedly.
"Could you take us to have a look at the situation?"
The middle-aged police officer requested.
"No problem, follow me!"
Feng Lingling quickly agreed, leading the officers straight to the kitchen.
"The body is behind this cabinet."
"I just pried open the panel inside and saw a human hand bone..."
Feng Lingling pointed at the cabinet.
"Alright, I’ll take a look."
The middle-aged officer bent down to check inside the cabinet.
When he turned on his phone’s flashlight, he indeed saw a section of a white hand bone, just as Feng Lingling had described.
He recalled the situation he observed earlier, suspecting that the murderer killed someone and cemented the body in the wall, then specially customized this cabinet to hide the body.
After the officer emerged from the cabinet, he said seriously, "Mr. Zhao, it is indeed as you said, there’s a body hidden there."
"This apartment is now a crime scene, and we need to seal it off."
"So, unfortunately, we’ll have to ask you to temporarily move out."
"No problem!"
Feng Lingling nodded eagerly like a pecking chicken.
Kidding aside, even if you let him stay, he wouldn’t have the guts!
"Also, your phone is recording, right?"
"We can’t disclose the investigation process, so please turn off your phone camera."
The middle-aged officer glanced at Feng Lingling’s phone and said coldly.
"I understand, I understand."
Feng Lingling said as he hurriedly turned off the livestream.
The viewers clearly heard the conversation between Feng Lingling and the officer.
"What a pity, I haven’t had enough yet!"
"I didn’t even get to see what the body looks like."
"Didn’t Feng Lingling just say, it’s all bones now."
"That’s not too bad, just imagine if it’s rotting with maggots crawling in the flesh."
"Ugh... Stop it, I’ve already got the image and I want to throw up!"
"Wait for the police report!"
[System Notification: The host has successfully altered the Heavenly Dao and is absorbing Life Span. Please check it later...]
The notification from the Celestial Destiny System sounded again.
Lu Heng glanced at his Life Span. It increased to 43 points.
If not for his reminder, the body would not have been discovered for another four years.
Before the body was found, every tenant would suffer misfortune like Feng Lingling.
Four years later, unable to rent out the place, the landlord would think of renovating.
With a renovation, no secrets could remain hidden.
Feng Lingling would only learn about this murder case when he was summoned to the police station for investigation four years later.
The subsequent police report described the case and the investigation process.
The viewers mostly guessed wrong about the murderer.
This murder case had nothing to do with the landlord.
The real murderer was actually a tenant.
The tenant accidentally killed a friend over money issues.
To cover up the murder, he cemented the friend’s body in the wall.
He also spent money to custom-build a cabinet with different depths.
To the landlord, he offered to replace the cabinet at his own expense because it was too worn out.
The landlord, seeing a good deal, naturally agreed without any suspicions.
As for why Feng Lingling and other tenants were so unlucky, the police report did not explain, nor would there be an explanation.
According to Lu Heng’s own guess, it might be because the deceased harbored strong resentment before dying.
This resentment did not dissipate over time but lingered until now, causing every resident to experience compounded misfortune.
As to why it lingered until now, it might require on-site investigation to find a reasonable explanation.
"Alright, I’ve finished the readings for the two fated viewers today."
"Let’s meet again when we have the chance!"
Lu Heng prepared to end the broadcast.
"Master, don’t go, do one more reading to make us happy again."
"A master like you is truly a unconventional presence in the streaming realm!"
"Master, can you predict the battle between Man Hong and Man Lan next week?"
"If we could have the master by my side, wouldn’t I win every fight?"
"If you win, you’ll be the king of the chips!"
Despite the viewers’ persistence, Lu Heng still chose to end the stream at lightning speed.
