The photo pasted below did bear some resemblance to the werewolf they were now facing, but it wasn’t a complete match. This could be due to a face-altering procedure.
"Don’t kill this man," Vivian’s voice suddenly echoed in Mu You’s mind. During the fight, Mu You had placed her atop a small tree in the park to avoid accidental harm and only retrieved her after the fight was over.
"A Trace Mark has been placed within this man. If he were to die, the mark would transfer to his killer, allowing the caster to track them down at any time," Vivian explained.
Mu You paused, frowning, "What if he dies naturally?"
"If he dies naturally, the Trace Mark would stay at his place of death."
Mu You nodded, his face serious.
It was clear to him that this was a backup plan from the Ten Commandments for Lu Yao. This werewolf was nothing more than a pawn, thrown away by the group. Even if Lu Yao managed to kill the werewolf, she would still be branded by the Trace Mark, ultimately unable to escape from the organization.
"Looks like we need to handle this man with caution..."
Mu You thought for a moment, they could not take actions against this man themselves and they couldn’t wait for his natural death either. It seemed that the best option was to hand him over to the police.
This man only had one month left to live and he had already turned into a mindless idiot. If captured by the police, he would never go through the process of questioning, sentencing, and execution, and would likely die in prison.
Mu You explained the werewolf’s situation to Lu Yao, who didn’t object. The fellow was already a complete invalid and she had no vengeful thoughts about killing him herself. Now that the trace mark was figured, it was better to let him spend the rest of his life in prison.
An hour later, a man tightly bound from head to foot suddenly appeared at the entrance of the City K Police Station without a sound.
A few minutes passed before a duty officer discovered him. The officer collected a neatly printed pile of documents from the man, who by now had fallen unconscious.
The officer quickly scanned the documents, his eyes widening in surprise. He rushed into the duty room and dialed a number, "Quickly, call Captain Zhang back..."
Half an hour later, Zhang Yang sat at his desk in the office, a nearly burnt-out cigarette in his mouth. He leaned back, staring at the ’major case’ files on his desk and exhaled a cloud of smoke.
He clearly knew that someone had secretly helped them deal with the werewolf issue tonight.
What he had never expected was that the criminal would be delivered to him alive... Regardless of the reasons, it was a massive contribution!
The case they had been grappling with for so long had finally been resolved. Their colleagues at the station could now breathe a sigh of relief, cheering and celebrating. They had been oppressed for so long, and now they could finally relax.
However, as he sat enveloped in a cloud of smoke, Zhang Yang’s thoughts were focused elsewhere.
After a while, as if reaching a decision, he picked up his coat without making a sound, left the station, and walked on alone.
After dealing with the werewolf, Mu You rushed to the hospital to check on Little Ya.
Little Ya was now sleeping in a light illness ward, with a bandage wrapped around her head.
Having made sure that Little Ya was receiving proper care, Mu You didn’t disturb her rest and quietly left the hospital, heading back to the pet shop.
However, as he approached the pet shop, he noticed a figure squatting on the steps leading up to the shop’s entrance, smoking a cigarette whose glowing ember flickered in the darkness.
Using his superior vision, Mu You recognized the man as the police officer who had come to his shop previously to inquire about the dog-killing case. He was also the commander from the Special Investigation Task Force at Qubai Mountain.
The Special Investigation Task Force...
Mu You furrowed his brows. The man’s late-night appearance at his doorstep clearly meant he was waiting for Mu You.
Did this mean he knew Mu You’s identity?
Mu You considered this, changed his skin to a normal appearance, and walked toward him.
Since the man had sought him out, there was no point in hiding. Furthermore, he wore casual clothes and hadn’t brought anyone with him, suggesting he wasn’t there to cause trouble.
