Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 208 I'm Not a Combatant

The crime scene is located in a remote alley in the southeast corner of Siyang City. In Zheng Liu's words, this place is close to the port, and it is the off-season in the past few months, so there are few people at night. The body was only discovered early this morning.

The estimated time of death was around 1 a.m. He would come to a place like this alone at a.m., probably to be investigating something.

"Maybe we were ambushed by an evil spirit."

Zheng Liu parked his car in front of the alley entrance. The police who arrived after receiving the alarm had already put up a cordon at the alley entrance. He said, "I'm so sorry."

"It's not an evil spirit. People harmed by evil spirits won't leave behind corpses."

Duan Mingyuan explained to the young police officer the most basic knowledge of the profession. If it was the work of evil spirits, the deceased would disappear without a trace just like the old hunter before, and it would take several days for the contact station to confirm.

Zheng Liu immediately wrote down what Duan Mingyuan had said in the memo on his phone.

He thinks this knowledge will be useful in the future.

After the two got off the car, they met an old police officer from the Port District who was standing at the entrance of the alley smoking. This behavior obviously violated the regulations, but under great mental pressure, others turned a blind eye.

Zheng Liu looked into the alley and saw that the body had been covered with a white cloth. From the blood seeping from the head of the cloth, one could imagine that the crime scene must have been quite tragic.

"I know her. She came to our station frequently some time ago and asked us to give her a search warrant."

The old police officer glanced at the two of them and looked at the sky which was particularly gloomy today. "She said that her master disappeared in the hotel, and she is going to the hotel to investigate."

The young girl revealed her identity as a hunter to them, but this was obviously against department regulations.

Even if the two departments want to search a hotel, the action will ultimately be led by them. Moreover, the bureau also consulted the association's opinion at the first time, and the Siyang City Association gave a negative response.

It was obvious that the young girl and the association had a disagreement on whether to investigate the hotel, so she skipped the department and went directly to their bureau.

Although the bureau rejected her request, as a veteran police officer with more than 20 years of law enforcement experience, he gave the girl a few words of encouragement before she left.

The truth doesn't come easy, and sometimes it takes people like them to persevere.

But the old policeman never expected that his words of encouragement would result in a cold corpse in the alley.

The victim was shot in the head with a large-caliber gun. When he arrived, it was almost difficult to recognize the victim's original appearance, which made him feel that he had harmed the victim.

If he had thought more carefully at the time, he might have realized that the reason why the Hunter Association did not conduct a thorough investigation of the hotel was because they had foreseen the danger.

Zheng Liu and the old policeman looked at each other in silence.

Death is always very close to them, and it is difficult for them to guarantee that they will not meet someone they know during a certain visit.

Zheng Liu sighed deeply. He would remember this brave young hunter.

He felt that he had the same idea as the young hunter, the only difference was that he had met the expert Duan Mingyuan first, while the other party had not.

When Zheng Liu looked deeper into the alley again, the young hunter indeed left a deep impression on him, the kind that he would never forget for the rest of his life.

"Fuck!"

He and the veteran police officer said in unison that even the veteran police officer, who had more than 20 years of law enforcement experience, had never seen such a scene.

The two were so shocked that the cigarettes in their mouths fell to the ground.

The deceased who was confirmed dead lifted the white cloth and climbed up from the ground.

Are you a Hunter or a Necromancer! ?
Zheng Liu really wanted to question Duan Mingyuan in this way.

This question has been lingering in his mind since he left the police station. Duan Mingyuan does not have the temperament of a hunter at all. Everything he does makes people think that he is a legal profession. The young hunter seemed to be extremely frightened and gasped for breath. She subconsciously used the white cloth as a quilt and wrapped herself up.

Zheng Liu and the old policeman rushed into the alley one after another.

"Are you OK?"

They admitted that it was a bit strange to ask this question. When a person is shot in the head by a large-caliber bullet and is confirmed dead on the spot, it is usually difficult to ask him such a question.

"She must be too frightened. Let her go to the car to calm down first."

Duan Mingyuan said.

Zheng Liu and the old policeman quickly helped the young girl back to the police car. After closing the door, they stared at each other and confirmed each other's eyes.

I also need a cigarette.

"Calm down. You've been in this business for a long time and you've seen all kinds of strange things. There's no need to make a fuss."

The old policeman tried to persuade Zheng Liu to stay calm as a person who had experienced it, but it was obvious that the old policeman was the least calm one.

"Uncle, you are holding a ballpoint pen."

Zheng Liu had to remind the old policeman who was holding the ballpoint pen in his mouth and trying to light it with a lighter. Fortunately, the old policeman held the lighter upside down, so he didn't actually light the ballpoint pen.

"Oh, that's a mistake."

The old policeman took out a pack of cigarettes from the other side with trembling hands and gave one to Zheng Liu and Duan Mingyuan respectively.

"I don't need it."

Duan Mingyuan waved his hand. Smoking is harmful to health. He had no habit of smoking, and he had stopped smoking since Jiuyue moved in. Jiuyue seemed to dislike the smell of smoke. Whenever she saw someone smoking in public, she would frown and sometimes stare at the smoker with a rather ferocious look.

As a medical worker, Duan Mingyuan had to emphasize the harmfulness of smoking.

Not only will it harm your health, but it may also cause you to be cursed by the fox, and be accompanied by bad luck for the next week or even a month.

"Old Duan, how on earth did you do that?"

After calming down, Zheng Liu asked.

Ever since the door to the new world opened to him, this world has become more and more outrageous. As an expert appointed by the association, Duan Mingyuan's fight with the evil spirits in the company building can be said to be due to his job, but his ability to directly pull up the dead is really incredible.

"In the Hunter Association, many people have extraordinary abilities, and I am no exception."

"You mean super powers?"

Zheng Liu has read many novels about supernatural powers. He has heard from his master that in the heyday of the Hunter Association, all the senior hunters were extraordinary people.

"You can also understand it this way. The birth of ability is related to personal obsession."

"As for your ability... I'm just curious. If you're not comfortable revealing it, just pretend I didn't ask."

Zheng Liu explained that in many novels he had read, the essence of a war of abilities was a war of intelligence, so directly asking others about their abilities was considered taboo.

"Nothing inconvenient."

Duan Mingyuan said, "I don't like fighting with others, so my abilities tend to be supportive and healing. I'm not a combat type of person."
