Black Silk Female Police Detective Exorcist

The vast majority of the marbles were indeed blocked by the spear, except for one—that marble became extremely heavy under Miss [Hibari's] ability, making it impossible for an ordinary person to block.

Even though the hunter had already begun to be corrupted by demonic energy, he was still thrown off balance by the enormous impact, losing his balance for a short time.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Miss Lark leaped over the hunter and, in her massive form, used the soles of her long boots to stomp on the hunter's shoulder.

In his haste, the hunter could only hold his spear horizontally in front of him to block, but he couldn't stop the foot that weighed several tons. He was pinned to the ground by the spear.

"Who exactly are you, woman? Why did you ambush me?"

The hunter struggled a few times but couldn't get up, so he glared at him angrily and asked.

Miss Lark's response was to take out a spray bottle and spray it at the hunter.

"Cough cough cough cough..."

Caught off guard, the hunter, who was breathing heavily, inhaled a large amount of spray. His tense muscles began to relax at a visible speed, and after about 10 seconds, they went completely limp, and he lost consciousness.

Seeing this, Miss Lark quickly took out a talisman used to seal the spiritual power of extraordinary individuals and affixed it to the hunter's forehead like she was subduing a zombie. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief and beckon to Guo Ying in the distance:

"It's all set. Lao Guo, come over and lend a hand."

"You're really good at this, junior sister."

Guo Ying quickly arrived beside the hunter, took out a rope she had prepared beforehand, and began to tie him up:

"It seems you haven't neglected your cultivation while you've been playing with the policewoman... As expected, Grandmaster Grandmother is too strict with you, always thinking you're lazy."

"Yeah, right?"

Miss Hibari readily agreed, though her face beneath the mask flushed slightly.

She really did have a blast with Qin Huanyu a while ago and didn't pay any attention to her cultivation. The fact that she still has such good skills now is entirely due to her talent.

After subduing the hunter who had begun to be corrupted by demonic influence, Miss Lark and Guo Ying took him to one of the Treasure Pavilion's strongholds in Liangzhou and imprisoned him temporarily.

This demonization is merely influenced by external forces, not a genuine depravity of the hunter himself, so it's not a major problem.

If the Wild Hunt can be killed or driven away as soon as possible, the Hunter can recover and even gain some benefits, such as becoming stronger than before, but his temper may also become more irritable.

Inside the Treasure Pavilion's stronghold, Miss Lark, just like she dealt with the werewolf-like young man in the Pure Love God of War case, extracted a wisp of demonic energy from the hunter's body and handed it over to her family's heirloom for identification, tracing the origin of the demonic energy.

The jade rod, which was about the size of a chopstick, was thrown out by Miss Skylark once again. It stood upright for a few seconds after landing before falling down, indicating a direction.

"It's done!"

Miss Lark breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. The divination had gone smoothly this time. The next step was to follow the direction to find the Wild Hunt's true form.

However, this is only the beginning of the real mission. Even with magical artifacts to guide the way, finding the Wild Hunt itself will not be so easy.

The small jade stick passed down in the Yi family can indicate the direction of a target, but it can only indicate the direction; it cannot predict the distance.

Searching for the target in the direction the jade rod fell is definitely possible, but when it will be found is hard to say... because the target may be just a few hundred meters ahead, or it may take you to walk a distance equivalent to half the circumference of the Earth.

Moreover, the area that this jade rod can guide varies depending on the level of detail in the divination conditions.

For example, the Wild Hunt we are tracking this time has very little demonic energy on the hunter, so the Jade Stick can only guide the target to a range of about 3 kilometers... Once inside this range, the Jade Stick will lose its function and the user must find it himself.

In short, finding this step was a delicate task. Miss Lark and Guo Ying couldn't even use airplanes or high-speed trains; they had to drive themselves and slowly search in the direction indicated by the little jade stick.

. . . . .

Meanwhile, in Yangzhou City, Yangzhou Prefecture, in a coffee shop located under an office building.

"Look more closely, is it really not him? Little Tiger?"

Qin Huanyu looked at Hu Niu with hope, hoping that Hu Niu could give a different answer.

However, Tiger Girl's expression remained unchanged, still showing a hint of impatience:

"It's definitely not him, I'm absolutely certain!"

"……how so?"

Qin Huanyu deflated like a punctured balloon, slumping into her chair.

This was the umpteenth time Tiger Girl had given this answer. In the past few days, Qin Huanyu had taken Tiger Girl almost all over the Eastern Divine Continent, secretly observing many people, all of whom had traveled alone on flights suspected to be remnants of the Fuhu Sect.

Unable to find anything more suspicious, Qin Huanyu had no choice but to resort to this cumbersome method: observing and eliminating them one by one.

She thought her efforts would pay off, but it turned out to be all for naught. These people were just ordinary tourists, and there was no trace of them having practiced the Tiger Subduing Divine Skill.

The person outside the window was the last target Qin Huanyu had identified, but Hu Niu still denied it.

'Could it be that I looked in the wrong direction? That shouldn't be the case...'

Qin Huanyu slumped onto the table like a salted fish, her face full of dejection.

She couldn't figure out where things went wrong, but there was nothing she could do; the case still needed to be investigated. So she decided to go back to Youzhou Prefecture first and ask Elder Huang, that monstrous tiger, about it.

Qin Huanyu took out her phone and bought two tickets for the nearest airport. Then she took Hu Niu by taxi to the airport.

With about 40 minutes left before check-in, Tiger Girl complained that she was a little hungry, so the two of them headed straight to the buffet restaurant after arriving at the airport, intending to have a big meal first.

Tiger Girl wanted to fill her stomach, while Qin Huanyu wanted to vent her appetite and relieve her worries.

Airport buffet restaurants are generally on the expensive side. Besides passengers who are really not short of money, another major customer group is airline employees who have internal benefits that allow them to eat at the restaurant at a lower price.

While Qin Huanyu was wolfing down her food to vent her frustration, two flight attendants wearing bodycon skirts, black stockings, and high heels came together and sat not far from her, chattering incessantly as they ate.

Qin Huanyu didn't want to eavesdrop on strangers' conversation, but the two flight attendants made no attempt to conceal their conversation, and their voices drifted into Qin Huanyu's ears.

Qin Huanyu wasn't initially interested in their conversation. It was about how a young co-pilot on their recent flight was handsome and seemed to be quite wealthy... Just like men fantasize about a beautiful woman, the two flight attendants were also fantasizing about the co-pilot.

However, as the flight attendants were chatting, one sentence suddenly caught Qin Huanyu's attention.

That was actually just a very ordinary complaint, said by one of the flight attendants:

"I wonder when I'll be able to fly with handsome Hao again. For a big airline like ours, it takes a long time to complete a shift rotation. If we're unlucky, it might take more than a year!"

Schedule? Rotate through the shifts?

Qin Huanyu had no interest in the flight attendant's use of mispronunciation to fantasize about handsome men, but the information revealed by the flight attendant suddenly made Qin Huanyu's eyes light up.

She seemed to realize where she had made her mistake.

Suppressing her sudden surge of excitement, Qin Huanyu first wiped the grease from the corner of her mouth, then tidied herself up before taking out her police ID and walking towards the two flight attendants:

"Excuse me, gentlemen... I am a police officer investigating a case, and there are some things that may require your cooperation."

"Hey?"

Both flight attendants were very surprised and blinked blankly.

They are clearly straight women who are as straight as they can be, only like handsome men, and have no interest in knowing or being acquainted with the famous "First Policewoman of Saint Zhou Kingdom" on the internet.

However, as a basic requirement of citizens, the two flight attendants were very cooperative after confirming that Qin Huanyu's police officer ID was genuine.

Qin Huanyu didn't waste any time and asked the question directly, quickly getting the answer she wanted.

Contrary to her expectations, the airline's employees did not work in a fixed crew on a fixed route, but rather in a completely disrupted shift system.

The crew members on each flight are different people. The first officer next to the captain is different every time, and so are the flight attendants under the chief purser.

Of course, airlines have a limited number of employees, and many crew members fly a few fixed routes and take turns working with the same people. But there are also some crew members who don't fly any fixed flights at all; they're like bricks, moved wherever there's a shortage of people.

One of the flight attendants in front of Qin Huanyu was someone who flew all over the country and had participated in almost every route. The other flight attendant, on the other hand, took turns flying four fixed routes. The two of them were friends before they joined the company, and since they were lucky enough to meet on the same flight today, they decided to have a meal at the restaurant to celebrate, catch up, and chat about handsome guys.

After learning about the situation, Qin Huanyu thanked the two flight attendants and happily returned to her seat.

When she was investigating suspicious targets, she only investigated the passengers on those flights, but neglected the crew members, which was indeed a mistake.

But it's never too late to mend the fence after the sheep are lost. The remnants of the Fuhu Sect have not yet taken any action, so Qin Huanyu still has time to catch them before her colleagues do!

Even before returning to Hu Niu's home, Qin Huanyu contacted Duanmu Ling directly at the airport restaurant, asking Duanmu Ling to help her return to her old profession as a hacker.

Sure enough, all the flights suspected to have been taken by the perpetrator of the tiger attack all belonged to the same airline.

Duanmu Ling quickly found the crew member list, and this time she found clues very easily, and could even say that she directly locked onto the suspect.

Because all the crew members on those flights had the same person... This guy didn't seem as smart as Qin Huanyu thought; he didn't use a fake identity to cover it up at all.

This man is named Gu Hao, 31 years old, and his profession is what everyone calls a 'flight attendant'. He is mainly responsible for security during flights and also has some basic repair skills. When necessary, such as when the aircraft landing gear cannot be retracted, he needs to take a wrench and knock it.

Even more coincidentally, Gu Hao is from Baiguang City. He had taken a two-week vacation in his hometown before returning to work on a flight from Shanbei City.

...All the clues match up. The guy who committed the tiger attack must be this Gu Hao!

The suspect has been identified, so the original travel plans naturally need to be changed.

Duanmu Ling has already found out Gu Hao's current whereabouts by hacking into the airline. Gu Hao is currently in Qingzhou. He just finished a flight and will rest for one night at the Qingzhou Airlines Hotel. He will take a flight to Yinghua Prefecture early tomorrow morning, and then fly back to Jingzhou from Yinghua Prefecture.

"...If nothing unexpected happens, today's tiger incident will occur in Qingzhou again...or perhaps it has already happened?"

Qin Huanyu took out her phone to search for news and see where the latest tiger attack incident had occurred.

As she had predicted, about 50 minutes earlier, a tiger suddenly appeared in a subway station in Qingzhou Prefecture. After biting two people, it was shot dead by the armed police who arrived in time.

This is practically irrefutable evidence.

Considering that Hu Niu was unwilling to fight and was very timid, Qin Huanyu did not take Hu Niu with her to Qingzhou this time. She let Hu Niu return to Youzhou Prefecture as originally planned, and only changed her own plane ticket.

Tiger Girl was overjoyed, of course. She had long wanted to get rid of Qin Huanyu, that wicked woman who forced her to do chores... Hearing that Qin Huanyu had identified the suspect and no longer needed her, Tiger Girl happily ate two extra kilograms of beef! She ate almost 10 kilograms of meat in one meal!

After seeing Hu Niu off on the plane, Qin Huanyu waited patiently at the airport for more than an hour before boarding the plane to Qingzhou herself, preparing to arrest Gu Hao.

The Qingzhou Prefecture's airport hotel was quite close to the airport, and Qin Huanyu went straight to the hotel to make the arrest after getting off the plane.

The airline's system couldn't find Gu Hao's specific room number, but that didn't matter; Qin Huanyu could simply pull out her police ID and ask at the front desk.

The hotel has 28 floors. Gu Hao's room is on the 22nd floor. The rooms on this floor are mainly reserved for airline employees. At this time, in addition to Gu Hao, there are about a dozen crew members staying on the 22nd floor. They are all people who will be flying early the next morning.

Two flight attendants live in the room next to Gu Hao's. If they were to arrest him directly and he violently resisted, it could very likely harm innocent people.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Huanyu borrowed a waitress uniform from the hotel manager, disguised herself as a cleaning lady, and entered the floor where Gu Hao was.

About 15 meters away from Gu Hao's room, there is a storage room, which is usually used to store the cleaning tools of the waiters.

Qin Huanyu pretended to be tidying up the storeroom and lurked there. Several groups of people passed by in the corridor without suspecting anything... At most, they thought the waitress was too beautiful and couldn't help but steal a few glances.

Qin Huanyu was waiting for an opportunity. It was only a little past 6 p.m., and Gu Hao might go out again to find a place to commit another crime. At that time, he would definitely avoid the crowd, which would be Qin Huanyu's chance to catch him.

The plan was good, but something unexpected happened.

When the elevator stopped on the 22nd floor with another ding, an oddly dressed person stepped out of the elevator car.

She turned out to be a shrine maiden, and quite pretty at that. Her shrine maiden outfit was well-tailored and had a rather avant-garde and daring design that accentuated her figure.

As Qin Huanyu looked curiously at the witch, the witch also happened to look at her.

Then the priestess's gaze sharpened, and with a look and expression that seemed to say, "You monster, I've finally found you," she actually made her move.

The priestess used both hands simultaneously, casting two spells at the same time.

The first spell was a talisman that flew to Qin Huanyu's side and hovered in mid-air, emitting a blue light that covered an area of ​​about 10 meters.

Qin Huanyu immediately felt a weight on her body, and her movements became much slower, as if several Yi Youyous were holding her and clinging to her, making her not want to move a single finger and just want to lie down and enjoy it.

The other spell was a black and white yin-yang jade, about the size of a basketball, which was smashed directly at Qin Huanyu's head.

'This shrine maiden was actually quite pretty, I didn't expect her to be mentally ill!'

Qin Huanyu cursed inwardly and also launched a counterattack, making two moves at the same time.

The arc rifle, sealed within a tattoo on one hand, was released and fired at the hovering talisman. Simultaneously, an alloy tentacle appeared at the lower back, its long, spirit-suppressing iron needle piercing the incoming Yin-Yang jade.

Bang!

The talisman lost its effect after being struck by a strong electric arc, but the Yin-Yang Jade exploded with a loud bang, enough to alarm everyone on the entire floor.

Qin Huanyu clearly heard noises coming from Gu Hao's room; it seemed someone had opened the window and jumped out.

'Oh no! He's trying to run away!'

Ignoring the sudden appearance of the mad witch, Qin Huanyu was about to chase after Gu Hao.

But the mad witch seemed to have no intention of letting Qin Huanyu go. She cast a spell again, this time holding a talisman between the index and middle fingers of both hands and waving it out in a crossed motion.

BIUBIUBIUBIU!

The two talismans collided in mid-air and transformed into dozens of spirit bullets the size of ping-pong balls, which attacked Qin Huanyu from all directions with completely irregular trajectories.

These spirit bullets may not look big, but their power should not be underestimated. They leave small dents when they hit the ceiling and walls, so Qin Huanyu dared not take them head-on.

After she kicked open Gu Hao's door, she could only watch helplessly as Gu Hao disappeared out the window, while alarms blared throughout the hotel.

!!!

Fine, fine, you insist on fighting, huh?
