Sheriff Uncle, open the door quickly! I've come to solve a case!
Chapter 94 Knowledge Through the Mirror
Qin Qingzhou covered his mouth and nose. At this moment, he could only rely on his lung capacity to hold on. If he inhaled any water mist, he would die.
Besides looking after those who needed help more, Qin Qingzhou was surprised to find that Bai Zhizhi could actually breathe in the fog.
"Don't worry about me, Yu Bei is over there."
Qin Qingzhou nudged Bai Zhizhi, who, in the pitch-black fog, vaguely saw Yu Bei sitting on the ground not far away.
She quickly ran over, took out the talisman, and slapped it onto Yu Bei's face.
In that instant, Yu Bei was able to breathe fresh air.
He coughed and slowly regained consciousness.
It was Bai Zhizhi who saved him...
Despite being a child herself, she selflessly came to save the two adults.
"Brother, are you alright?"
Yu Bei's feelings were complicated, and he was too weak to do anything but shake his head.
Bai Zhizhi immediately gave Qin Qingzhou a protective talisman, and Qin Qingzhou was finally able to breathe air briefly.
But the talisman didn't last long. Bai Zhizhi pulled Qin Qingzhou and hurriedly ran back to the mirror, frantically touching it: "Zhizhi came from here. Zhizhi, take your uncle and brother away."
But her palm landed squarely on the mirror.
"Only you can walk; you can't take us with you," Yu Bei said weakly, leaning against the wall.
"No, Uncle and Brother, you're in danger. Zhiyi will definitely be able to take you away." She touched the mirror again and again, but it was all in vain.
Qin Qingzhou released her hand: "Go find some help, we'll be fine."
Bai Zhizhi was on the verge of tears: "No, no!"
"Bang!"
A loud bang came from outside the door, as if someone had kicked away the iron bar blocking the doorway.
With the dull sound of the door being opened, moonlight shone in from outside, dancing in the mist.
As the fog dissipated, the oppressive, suffocating feeling slowly disappeared.
Song Qiu bent over, holding her knees and panting, and irritably tugged at her collar, which was a little too tight.
She searched everywhere but couldn't find the basement. Finally, she heard Bai Zhizhi's very faint, anxious voice and found the place.
"Hey! Are you guys stupid? Why didn't you call if there was danger?"
Song Qiu huffed and puffed as she walked in, scolding Yu Bei as she helped him up from the ground: "Neither of you has a brain! If you really couldn't handle it, why didn't you leave one person outside? Why did you both come in? Do you know how long I've been looking for you?"
Yu Bei gave a helpless, bitter smile: "There's too much fog; I can't even swipe my phone."
"That's yours!"
"Be gentle, you're pinching me too hard..."
"Serves you right!"
Bai Zhizhi was stunned and pulled Qin Qingzhou to hide behind her.
Can Sister Song Qiu transform? Why does she look so different?
She looked so weak when we first met...
After scolding Yu Bei, Song Qiu wanted to glare at Qin Qingzhou, blaming him for dragging Yu Bei into this mess.
Halfway through staring, he suddenly saw a small figure, which startled him so much that he threw Yu Bei aside and ran out of the basement: "A ghost!!"
Unfortunately, Bai Zhizhi was wearing white clothes today, making her appear and disappear in the darkness.
Bai Zhizhi poked her head out: "Sister, why have you transformed into a third form again? Zhizhi isn't a ghost, don't be afraid."
"What are you doing here?! You can't possibly run faster than me, can you?" Upon discovering that it was Bai Zhizhi, Song Qiu became even more terrified.
"Knowledge comes in through the mirror~"
Song Qiu swallowed hard. "You people... never mind, I'm just an ordinary person..."
Bai Zhizhi quietly walked to Yu Bei's side. Yu Bei was in much better condition and stood straight to one side with a calm expression.
She gently tugged at his hand: "Brother, are you still feeling unwell?"
Yu Bei's fingertips unconsciously bent, and happened to hook Bai Zhizhi's hand.
"No..." Yu Bei's voice was hesitant.
"If everything's alright, then I'm relieved~" The little guy skipped and hopped ahead, clearly not understanding what the adults were saying, but still trying to peek at them very intently.
Yu Bei watched her retreating figure, a complex mix of emotions welling up inside him.
Now is not the time to talk about these things. Qin Qingzhou went upstairs first to take the housekeeper away.
Song Qiu just said that he didn't see the butler or anyone else leave on the way here, so he should still be at the villa.
Yu Bei and the others followed behind, keeping a close eye on Qin Qingzhou. Just as he went upstairs to force open the door to the butler's room...
He reached out, trying to stop him.
Jingle Bell!
Qin Qingzhou's phone rang.
Yu Bei breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew his hand.
The caller was Li Ku. As soon as Qin Qingzhou answered the phone, Li Ku's anxious voice came from the other end.
"It's terrible, Captain Qin! Zhu Meimu, Lin Sun, and Bai Yi—they're all dead!"
"What?"
How could that be?
Qin Qingzhou suddenly remembered what Bai Yi had said before he was arrested.
[But it doesn't matter anymore, I'm not going to live anyway.]
She actually died.
Moreover, all of the people suspected of organ trafficking are dead.
wrong.
It wasn't that they were suspected of organ trafficking, but rather that everyone who had connections with people with superpowers was dead.
Qin Qingzhou suddenly looked at Yu Bei, her eyes full of vigilance.
Li Ku continued, "This matter is very strange. They all died in prison, and the prison guards couldn't find anything suspicious."
"Moreover... their deaths were all peaceful, but the forensic doctor found that their internal organs died instantly, suggesting poisoning."
"I'm on my way, Captain Qin, you should come quickly too."
"I understand." Qin Qingzhou hung up the phone, took two steps to Yu Bei, and said coldly, "You knew all along, didn't you?"
"What do you know? Why are all those prisoners in jail dead?!"
Bai Zhizhi was terrified and quickly stepped between the two: "Don't fight, fighting is bad for kids."
Yu Bei remained calm, silently taking a step back to create distance between them: "I don't know much."
"Some people use their superpowered identities to do bad things. They are a very large organization, and they will stop at nothing to kill anyone who threatens their organization."
"And this organization has more people than you might imagine."
"Maybe there are some among the police."
"You're talking nonsense!" Qin Qingzhou couldn't believe it.
Rather than believing there were bad guys among the police, he wanted to brainwash himself into thinking that Yu Bei was lying.
But the facts are there: those who died were closest to the police.
"Why did they take the butler away? Does taking him away make it safer?"
"No, I just want to get the clues I need before he dies," Yu Bei said calmly.
He was not intimidated by Qin Qingzhou's sharp gaze. Their eyes clashed, and Yu Bei remained sincere throughout.
He's not a good person.
Qin Qingzhou finally saw through this enigmatic man.
He doesn't care about anyone's death; as long as he gets the information he wants, he can discard them immediately.
Similarly, he could also abandon Qin Qingzhou and Bai Zhizhi, who are currently cooperating with him.
Qin Qingzhou clenched her fists slightly, stopped talking to him, and turned to open the door to her room.
The moment the door opened, a figure fell down from the side of the door.
