Antique Shop Zero: Disfigured School Beauty Becomes a Succubus to Pay Off Debts

Announcement: Update coming soon, please stay tuned!

South China Sea, Public Security Bureau.

A helicopter landed on the rooftop helipad.

Two heavily armed investigators disembarked from the helicopter, eyeing Liu Wei and Li Mingyue warily with firearms in hand.

Since the illusionist incident, Liu Wei's attitude towards Li Mingyue has undergone a complete 180-degree change, and he intends to take her under his wing and train her.

Liu Wei asked Li Mingyue how she found Yamada Yu.

Li Mingyue simply said she was lucky.

Liu Wei was very skeptical of this.

However, when he thought about Li Mingyue's attitude towards the victims, he felt that none of it mattered anymore.

She was too naive; the regret and guilt in her eyes for not being able to save the hostages were clearly visible.

Finding Yamada Yu was a matter of luck, but it was also a skill.

The ability to empathize with victims is the most important quality of an investigator specializing in unusual cases.

Liu Wei produced his identification:

"The gavel investigation team, led by Liu Wei."

The two investigators took out their equipment and scanned Liu Wei's iris before making a safety hand signal to the helicopter.

An investigator disembarked from the helicopter, carrying a container covered with a yellow cloth.

Last time, Yamada Yu escaped, and his final soul attack made Liu Wei take it very seriously.

If Yamada Yu is so difficult to deal with, then how powerful must Seimei be?

After repeated urging and applications, the higher-ups finally delivered a forbidden item today.

With the forbidden item in hand, the investigation team had the courage to defeat the extraordinary individuals from Dongying.

When Liu Wei saw the forbidden item, his eye twitched slightly. He then turned to Li Mingyue and smiled.

"The higher-ups actually sent this thing over. You guessed right, this is definitely going to be a tough battle!"

After Yamada Yu escaped yesterday, Liu Wei immediately set about locating him.

At the beginning, Yamada Yu evaded the Sky Eye's tracking, making the surveillance mission difficult to complete.

The investigation team didn't find anything strange about this.

After all, Yamada Yu was skilled in unpredictable illusions.

Fortunately, last night, the Sky Eye system successfully located Yamada Yu.

Right here at the Golden Splendor KTV!

An investigation revealed that Zhang Bao, the owner of Jinbihuihuang KTV, began purchasing large quantities of antiques several years ago.

This behavior is very unusual.

Based on Yamada Yu's entry time, Li Mingyue speculated that Zhang Bao was searching for forbidden items for Seimei.

The deceased Jiang Yong from yesterday was clearly just a gambler, a marginalized figure in society, yet he was targeted by a supernatural being like Yamada Yu.

This suggests that Jiang Yong was carrying a forbidden item, which is why he was killed by Yamada Yu.

The problem is that, after searching, there were no unusual items in Jiang Yong's rented room except for a large amount of cash under the bed.

Therefore, it is highly likely that Yamada Yu has already succeeded.

Now let's calculate the enemy's combat strength.

A forbidden object, the mysterious Onmyoji Seimei, Yamada Yu.

Of course, there may be other extraordinary individuals who have not appeared in the intelligence.

Li Mingyue looked curiously at the forbidden object covered by the yellow cloth and asked:

"What taboo item is this in our department?"

Liu Wei accepted the forbidden item, saluted the two investigators, his eyes flickered slightly, and he spoke:

"I trek behind the curtain, just so that the day may rise as usual."

The two investigators gave Liu Wei a deep look and saluted.

After the two investigators left by helicopter, Liu Wei finally spoke:

"Five Emperors' Poison Coins"

Li Mingyue blinked and asked:

"Is this all you have to deal with Seimei and the others?"

I thought the bureau would send a few more forbidden items, or send the cat instead.

Liu Wei carefully carried the container covered with a yellow cloth down to the office, saying as he went:

The copper coins that circulated during the reigns of the five emperors Shunzhi, Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong, and Jiaqing are known as the Five Emperors Coins.

Li Mingyue walked while pondering.

She had heard of the Five Emperors Coins.

They are generally regarded by ordinary people as items to ward off evil spirits.

What abilities does the Five Emperors Poison Money possess?

Liu Wei continued:

"If the Five Emperors Coins are exposed to the outside, a hundred miles around will instantly be filled with a plague, and it is highly contagious."

As Liu Wei spoke, a look of regret appeared in his eyes:

"A few years ago, the Five Emperors Poison Money resurfaced, causing a terrible plague."

Nearly a hundred investigators, hundreds of medical personnel, and law enforcement officers died in the line of duty while working to seal the Five Emperors' Poison Coin.

Li Mingyue seemed to recall something that happened a few years ago.

A plague swept across the entire planet Earth, claiming the lives of tens of millions of people worldwide.

Some of her classmates and teachers at school also died from the virus.

Li Mingyue stared in disbelief at the container covered by the yellow cloth.

This thing was actually the culprit!

Liu Wei gave a wry smile twice:

Fortunately, modern technology is powerful enough, and the Xia Kingdom acted quickly.

Otherwise, who knows what even more terrible disasters might have occurred.

Now you know what the Bureau of Anomalies deals with, right?

Li Mingyue murmured:

"I thought forbidden objects were things like gavels that only caused small-scale effects, but I never imagined they could have such terrifying destructive power."

Liu Wei's eyes revealed lingering fear:

Liu Wei's eyes revealed lingering fear:

"In fact, any taboo thing, if it is allowed to run rampant, can cause such terrible cases."

For example, if the gavel is allowed to revive, ghosts and monsters like the ghost constables will appear freely in the city at night.

By then, not only in Xia Kingdom, but the entire world might see "ghosts and monsters" become the norm.

A deep sense of shock welled up in Li Mingyue's eyes.

At the same time, there is also a fear of forbidden things.

Thinking of Seimei, wasn't he just a madman?!

They actually dared to attempt to collect forbidden items!

Ambition is more terrifying than natural disasters.

Liu Wei's eyes began to light up:

"From the moment you join the Bureau of Anomalies, you become the first line of defense protecting the people's peaceful and prosperous lives."

The myriad lights behind us require us to shoulder the burden and move forward.

Therefore, I will give it my all to deal with Seimei.

We must never allow such a dangerous individual to threaten the safety of the people of Xia.

Li Mingyue looked at the container in Liu Wei's hand:

"You're going to use this to defeat Seimei?"

This thing is so dangerous, like a "weapon of truth". Are you suggesting we use it to sacrifice the entire South Sea City and perish together with Seimei?

Liu Wei's eyes flickered slightly:

"This brings us to another ability of the Five Emperors Poison Coin."

As long as a human possesses the Five Emperors' Poison Coin, they can gather the virus from within a radius of a hundred miles onto the coin.

After being enhanced by the Five Emperors' Poison Coins, humans who possess them can temporarily possess extraordinary poisonous powers.

Li Mingyue was stunned for a moment:

"If that were possible, wouldn't it allow us to absorb the virus at will and cure a large number of patients?"

Liu Wei smiled:

"An hour later, the virus will regenerate in the body of the seriously ill, so this stuff is not a cure at all."

Li Mingyue understood.

Forbidden objects are dangerous; they have no chance of saving lives.

Liu Wei sighed:

"In fact, even forbidden things have a philosophical aspect."

The Five Emperors' Poison Coins represent the "poisonous plague" of the feudal imperial system.

When the imperial system was in place, the people suffered terribly.

If the imperial system falls into the hands of a new ruler, the world may enjoy a brief period of peace, but the 'poisonous plague' will still remain.

Li Mingyue had always felt that Liu Wei didn't like her, but she didn't know why he seemed to enjoy talking to her so much lately.

He was especially talkative today.

Before I knew it, I had walked back to the unusual office and happened to see Yang Shayan rushing out.

Yang Shayan saw Liu Wei and immediately said seriously:

"Our colleague said that someone from Dongying went to the Jinbihuihuang KTV, it might be Seimei!"

Liu Wei's hand holding the container trembled, his eyes turning serious:

"Let's get started!"
