Sheriff Uncle, open the door quickly! I've come to solve a case!

Chapter 1 The Little Ginseng Spirit Descends the Mountain

The summit of Xuanqing Peak.

The little dumpling on the lotus leaf woke up from a nightmare and clung to the old Taoist priest's sleeve, refusing to let go.

"Elder! My uncle is in danger! You must save him!"

Bai Zhizhi was a small ginseng on the cliff of Xuanqing Peak. After being picked up by an old Taoist priest and taken back to his sect, he cultivated for three hundred years and transformed into human form.

Her sect's wet nurse was surnamed Bai, so Zhizhi also took the surname Bai. Thus, the wet nurse became her mother. After the wet nurse passed away, she entrusted Bai Zhizhi to the old Taoist priest.

At this moment, Bai Zhizhi sensed that her mother's relatives were in danger.

The old Taoist priest did not stop Bai Zhizhi and let him go: "Remember, your abilities can only be used to do good deeds, not to harm people."

Bai Zhizhi nodded vigorously, her face trembling: "I've got it!"

So Bai Zhizhi left the sect with his short legs.

The day after descending the mountain, Bai Zhizhi wandered around the woods with a pained expression, the weeds around her taller than her.

Bai Zhizhi had never left the mountain before. After walking for a day, she got lost and finished the pastries the elder had given her. Bai Zhizhi sat down on the ground, patted her empty stomach, and smacked her lips in hunger.

She quickly rallied her spirits; now was not the time to give up, her uncle was still waiting for her to save him!

The little bundle of joy got up from the ground, wiped his face, and said, "Zhizhi, you're definitely the best!"

Just as she was about to use her senses to find her way, a man and a woman entered her field of vision.

Bai Zhizhi immediately hid behind a nearby tree, secretly observing them.

"The location the person who reported the case gave is correct; it's in the village just ahead!"

"We absolutely must catch that human trafficker this time!"

"Notify the others immediately; we absolutely cannot let him escape!"

The two ran away quickly, and Bai Zhizhi emerged from behind the tree and quietly followed.

She sensed the aura of death emanating from the two uncles and aunts, along with the surrounding merit.

The elder said that those who have accumulated merit are truly good people, and Bai Zhizhi did not want such good people to die.

The village at the foot of Xuanqing Peak is called Xuanqing Village. When Xu Shan and her companion arrived at the village entrance, a dark-skinned young man was lurking around suspiciously.

Xu Shan walked towards him: "It was the tip you provided to the police, right?"

The young man nodded repeatedly: "Yes! Those human traffickers are in the wooden house next to the ancestral hall! Don't worry, we definitely didn't alert them."

"Take us there." Xu Shan and the policeman next to her exchanged a glance and followed the young man.

The young man walked ahead, and from an angle where they couldn't see him, he revealed a sinister smile.

These police officers are so easy to fool.

They found an excuse to lure them over, so that they could never leave the village again.

The young man led them through a maze of turns until they arrived at the door of an earthen house.

The young man pointed to the mud house, its door tightly shut: "This is it. Those human traffickers are inside!"

Xu Shan placed her hand on the gun holster at her waist, ready to draw her gun and fire at any moment, preparing to rush in.

Just as she was about to reach the earthen house, a childish voice rang out.

"You can't go in!"

Xu Shan and the police officer next to her both looked at the suddenly appearing milk ball.

"Is she the child who was abducted?"

"Protect the children first!"

The two ran towards Bai Zhizhi, and the next second after they ran away, "bang!" The earthen house exploded from the inside, and the entire house was instantly engulfed in flames, pushing people back a few steps.

Xu Shan was still in shock, her pupils dilated as she stared at the sea of ​​fire.

They were almost killed in the explosion.

Bai Zhizhi sat down on the ground, panting heavily; she had almost missed it.

The young man's expression changed, and he turned to run away, but he crashed headfirst into the male police officer's chest, the hard chest sending him sprawling to the ground.

"You dare lie to the police? Who ordered you to do this! Tell me!"

The police officer, a head taller than the young man, trembled with fear at his imposing presence: "No, no! It's those human traffickers! They're the ones who did it, I didn't know anything about it!"

After confirming that Bai Zhizhi was alright, Xu Shan stood up, frowned, and said, "He might have been framed. Let's take him back to the police station first."

"No!"

Bai Zhizhi's baby voice was very loud, and her chubby little hand angrily pointed at the young man: "It's him!!"

"He's going to kill my uncle and aunt!"

The two police officers looked at Bai Zhizhi. Seeing her so determined, they really thought she was a child who had run away from home, and that she had learned about the human traffickers' plan by chance.

Xu Shan gave the male police officer a look: "Take him back."

"And this child, take him back too."

There is now a high probability that this village is a large human trafficking hub, and the villagers and traffickers are in cahoots, so they have to leave first.

Otherwise, once those people realize what's happening, they won't be able to leave.

Bai Zhizhi had just finished doing a good deed and was about to leave when Xu Shan grabbed him by the collar and dragged him back to the police station.

Meanwhile, chaos reigned in the village. The village chief was furious when he learned that the policemen hadn't been burned to death and that Er Gou had been arrested.

"A bunch of useless trash! You can't even do this! What use are you to me?!"

The village chief's dark pupils sized up his men in front of him. Beside them sat a man who was as thin as a stick, silently smoking opium.

This is the head of their human traffickers, nicknamed "Stick Brother".

The villagers were still somewhat intimidated by him: "Brother Gun, now even the police know our village has problems. What if Er Gou says something he shouldn't? What will we do then?"

"So be it." Stick Brother sneered, "If you hadn't asked for the goods, we wouldn't have come here and gotten caught by the police."

"How can you blame me for this?" The village's pupils dilated.

Seeing that Brother Stick was too lazy to explain, the village chief resigned himself to his fate: "Fine, you guys hide for a while, I'll handle the police."

Brother Gun stood up, with a "you're smart" look on his face, and left with his men.

……

On the way back to the police station, Lin Yuhe, a policewoman who caught up from behind, took a lollipop out of her pocket and put it in Bai Zhizhi's mouth.

Bai Zhizhi's eyes lit up; she had never eaten anything so delicious on the mountain!

This broke Lin Yuhe's heart.

The poor child was abducted at such a young age, never even had candy, and was covered in dirt.

She wiped Bai Zhizhi's face clean with a wet wipe, and whispered, "Are you hungry, baby? How did you find our police officers?"

Bai Zhizhi, licking a lollipop, mumbled, "Zhizhi smells the scent of death on Uncle and Auntie. Zhizhi can't let you die!"

The police officers were both amused and exasperated, and patted Bai Zhizhi's head, saying, "You really saved those uncles and aunties! That's fantastic!"

Fortunately, the child was not traumatized.

Lin Yuhe continued to probe, "How did you know that house was dangerous, darling?"

Bai Zhizhi snorted proudly, "I sensed it! Zhizhi is the best!"

"Perception?"

"Knowledge is the essence of ginseng; it can sense!"
