There was complete silence on the other end of the phone.

It was as if the other person was thinking in extreme pain, their memory seemingly forcibly obscured by something.

A full half minute passed.

The weak voice finally rang out with great difficulty.

"name……"

"What's my name...?"

"I...I'm called Liu...Liu Zifan!"

"right!"

"My name is Liu Zifan!"

The name came out.

Yang Guang immediately wrote down the name, then asked, "Where do you live?"

"Feed?"

Yang Guang fed the broken phone, whose screen had three cracks, twice more.

however.

There was no further response from the other end of the phone.

Only a series of busy "beep beep beep" sounds echoed jarringly in the empty cafeteria.

The signal is lost!

This unlucky guy lost connection before he could even explain where he was!

"Depend on!"

Yang Guang slammed his phone on the table in annoyance.

"I hate people who only say half of what they mean. What's the difference between that and someone who cuts their poop in half?"

Er Lengzi, who was hiding under the table, crawled out and shook his extremely shiny and smooth dog fur.

"Dad Yang, what should we do?"

"Are you still going to take this job?"

"We don't even have a location tracking system. We can't just wander around the streets smelling things, can we?"

"In this sweltering heat, my nose can't take this kind of torture."

Yang Guang glared at it.

"nonsense!"

"Can the merit that's already in your grasp really fly away?"

"I am the last Celestial Master!"

"Do you really think all those years of training I've had as a virgin were for nothing?"

Yang Guang snorted coldly and began to calculate with his ten fingers at an extremely fast pace.

He muttered to himself, and his expression became extremely serious.

"The character 'Liu' has six strokes, so its upper trigram is Kan; the characters 'Zi Fan' together have five strokes, so their lower trigram is Xun!"

"The main hexagram formed by combining the upper trigram Kan (坎) and the lower trigram Xun (巽) is Water over Wind (井)!"

Chu Sheng, who was standing next to him, was stunned.

He was still picking his teeth with a toothpick in his hand when the 250-pound bald man came closer.

"Amitabha."

"Brother Guang, you're pretty good at Plum Blossom Divination."

"Can you figure out anything?"

Yang Guang ignored him completely and continued to close his eyes and quickly calculate.

"The primary hexagram is Water over Wind (Well), the mutual hexagram is Fire over Lake (Opposition), and with the fifth line changing, the resulting hexagram is Earth over Wind (Rising)!"

"Got it!"

Yang Guang suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze extremely sharp.

"The hexagram 'Water over Wind' (井) has its body trigram below water, and its name contains the character 'Well' (井)!"

"But the mutual hexagram Fire over Lake (睽) has changed, and when we consider the changing hexagram Earth over Wind (升)..."

Yang Guang's lips curled into a cold smile: "The well is buried!"

"Furthermore, the Xun trigram is below and the Kun trigram is above. Xun represents news and messages, indicating that Liu Zifan was buried in a well!"

"And it was from this very spot where he was buried that he posted the message and called me!"

Upon hearing this...

Er Lengzi's heterochromatic eyes, one gold and one blue, widened in surprise.

Holy crap!

"Uncle Yang, your fortune-telling is more accurate than the Beidou satellite!"

"How could they even figure that out while the person was in the well?"

Yang Guang raised an eyebrow smugly: "What do you think?"

"You really think I've been growing up just to freeload?"

He continued, "Kun represents the earth and the southwest, and it also represents an open and spacious place."

"And it's a village, full of low-rise houses!"

"We already have the general location and the immediate surroundings!"

Yang Guang touched his chin.

"To the southwest, there's a spacious village with a well, but it's been buried..."

"If we were to search for it ourselves, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack."

"This is where the importance of connections becomes apparent!"

Yang Guang deftly picked up the old cell phone on the table, flipped through the contacts, and dialed Lin Yue's number directly.

The phone rang several times before it was answered.

Lin Yue's extremely tired voice came through the receiver.

"Feed?"

"Yang Guang?"

"What's wrong with you now?"

Lin Yue was clearly on the verge of going berserk.

Upon hearing this, Yang Guang immediately chuckled, his tone extremely obsequious: "Officer, calm down. I've come to deliver on my promise!"

Lin Yue gave a cold laugh on the other end of the phone.

"To boost sales performance?"

"Have you done something so heinous that you need to turn yourself in?"

"???"

ha?

Is this how I am in your heart?

Yang Guang dropped his playful grin and his tone became extremely serious: "Officer, I'm not joking anymore. Help me find someone named Liu Zifan."

"His age is unknown, but one thing is certain: he is dead."

"The kind that's completely dead!"

Upon hearing the word "dead person," Lin Yue's previously dazed mind instantly cleared.

Her detective instincts immediately put her on the serious side: "A murder case?"

"Are you sure he's dead?"

"I'm absolutely sure!"

Yang Guang said decisively, "This guy just called me for help, and his voice was colder than a ribbonfish that's been frozen in a cold storage for three days."

"A living person could never make such a sound."

Lin Yue frowned: "Do you have a specific address?"

"Yes, it exists, but it's rather vague."

Yang Guang quickly reported the result he had just calculated using the Plum Blossom Divination method.

"It should be located roughly in the southwest of our city, in a village."

"Moreover, the village has an open terrain and is mostly filled with low-rise houses."

"The most important point!"

"When you're doing your research, make sure there's a recent fire or explosion in the village."

"Because the well that trapped him was forcibly buried by something!"

"in addition."

"The population of this village should be very small, and it may even be an abandoned village."

All that could be heard on the other end of the phone was the sound of keyboard typing.

Lin Yue was clearly already in work mode: "Southwest, village, fire site, abandoned well..."

Lin Yue quickly repeated the clues Yang Guang had given her.

"Alright."

"I see."

"Wait a moment, I'll go check the recent police reports and the fire department's records."

"I'll call you back as soon as I find out!"

"Alright!"

"Lin, you've worked so hard! You'll have to treat me to milk tea sometime!"

Yang Guang shamelessly said something and then hung up the phone.

Having an official database to help is much better than running around aimlessly like a headless fly.

After putting down his phone, Yang Guang stretched out a big yawn.

He turned his head and glanced at Chu Sheng and Er Lengzi beside him.

Now that they've eaten and drunk their fill, these two look incredibly lazy.

Chu Sheng slumped in the chair, his 250-pound belly spread out, his eyes closed, muttering some Buddhist scriptures under his breath.

Er Lengzi, on the other hand, lay sprawled on the ground in a completely unladylike manner, his white belly exposed.

He even let out a loud, satisfying burp.

"Hiccup~~"

"That felt so good!"

Yang Guang looked at the two of them and kicked the simpleton in an annoyed tone: "Get up, get up!"

"Stop playing dead!"

"The work has arrived!"

Yang Guang pushed several empty plates forward on the table: "Stop resting, let's go, we need to find someone!"

P.S.: This contains some professional elements of Plum Blossom Divination. I don't know if you'll like it. If you do, I'll add more realistic and professional elements later, such as Plum Blossom Divination, Four Pillars of Destiny, and Feng Shui, etc.
