Chapter 457: This Is… Life!

The younger brother’s mouth was wide open, especially after that winking action. It made the younger brother forget to even scream. His entire body was filled with fear. It was a person who had been poisoned to death by him. He suddenly came back to life the moment before he was sent into the incinerator. Then after being smothered by him in the car, he could even blink at him!

Those who dared to kill were considered to be the courageous type. Except no matter how courageous they were, they would still pee their pants in fear in the face of such an unbelievable “supernatural” phenomenon. At this moment, the younger brother was completely dominated by fear.

“Are you dead? Hey, I’m asking you a question!” The woman shouted while driving.

Zhou Ze took a deep breath. As if the younger brother had covered his mouth and nose, his control over this body had been strengthened. He even exerted a little strength.

“Crack…”

Zhou Ze sat up. The younger brother’s eyes were dumbfounded, his face was deathly pale. At this moment, he was so scared that he was not clear-headed and he was trembling non-stop.

“Are you dead? The hospital is just ahead of the intersection!” The woman urged.

“It’s done,” A familiar voice sounded.

The woman turned her head and saw the familiar face beside her that she had shared a bed with for a long time. Without thinking, she heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Hubby, wait a little longer. We’ll get to the hospital soon…”

Suddenly… the woman stopped talking and then…

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!”

Many times, society liked to fix the title of “female driver”. It was a biased thing. Just now… it was clearly a red light… but the woman stepped on the accelerator and rushed out, but you really couldn’t blame her for having poor self-control. Even if it was a calm man behind the wheel and his recently deceased wife appeared beside him to talk to him, he would have probably lost control.

“Bang!”

Zhou Ze felt that he had gone too far as he had only wanted to spook this pair of dog lovers, it could also be considered as venting his anger for the deceased whose body was fated to be possessed by him. After all, he obtained the body. Thus he had to do something for him, right? It wasn’t until the car was knocked over from the side when the interior of the car was spinning.

Zhou Ze finally realized that the situation had gotten out of hand, it seemed that it was because his control over the body was much stronger than before. As a result, the pain that Zhou Ze suffered after the collision was much clearer. The violent impact and flip… caused Zhou Ze’s consciousness to fall into a kind of coma again.

“…”

“…”

“Ding dong.” The door was opened.

Zhang Yanfeng stood at the door as Officer Chen stood inside. Officer Chen then walked back to her desk and sat down. This was a hotel suite.

“Is the environment okay?” Officer Chen asked.

“Yes.” Zhang Yanfeng nodded.

“Don’t feel pressured. It’s in line with the reception rules.” Officer Chen picked up the coffee in front of her and found it was a little cold.

She then frowned and said, “Help me boil a pot of water. When the water is boiling, soak the coffee in it.”

“Oh, okay.” Old Zhang nodded and went to boil the water.

In front of this woman, Old Zhang felt like he was being suppressed in all aspects. To avoid the embarrassment of being too “attentive,” Zhang Yanfeng joked, “Just now, I was in my room watching the news in Xuzhou…”

“It said that the day before yesterday, a body that was supposed to be cremated in a funeral parlor in Xuzhou seemed to have moved a little. Then, the family members were so excited that they immediately moved the body into the car and drove it to the hospital for emergency treatment.”

“In the end, they drove in a hurry and got into a car accident. The wife and younger brother of the deceased in the car were also seriously injured and had died.”

“Yeah, this matter has already been trending on Weibo.” Officer Chen was still indifferent.

“It’s quite a pity. Perhaps, it’s the same for anyone. Seeing their family member die. Even if they saw wrongly that he suddenly moved, it would still ignite great hope.”

“Maybe.”

After the water was boiled, Old Zhang put the brewed coffee on Officer Chen’s table. There were many documents on the table, and a notebook was beside it.

“Have you thought about the matter I told you last time?” Officer Chen picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.

Old Zhang was about to remind her to be careful, but it was too late. Moreover, Officer Chen didn’t seem to feel the heat at all.

“I think it’s more suitable for me to continue staying in Tongcheng.”

“Oh?” Officer Chen was a little surprised.

She looked at Zhang Yanfeng and said, “Transferring to the provincial department doesn’t mean that you will be put on the shelf. There are quite many cases.”

“Being transferred from the local City Bureau to the Provincial Public Security Department was considered a promotion, and it also meant a better stage with a broader future.”

“I know… I understand, but I still prefer to stay in Tongcheng.”

“Everyone is a brick in the revolution. Move wherever you need to move.” Officer Chen joked. It could be considered as giving Zhang Yanfeng one last chance.

“I feel that the people of Tongcheng still need me. I still want to continue my stay in Tongcheng to serve the people.”

Yes… Tian’er was already dying from the conversation between two people who didn’t like to be polite.

“Okay, I got it. After this joint investigation in Xuzhou is over, you can go back to Tongcheng.”

“Phew…” Zhang Yanfeng let out a long sigh.

This time, he was transferred to Xuzhou by the provincial department to participate in a joint investigation. Officer Chen was also involved in this. Of course, this was not a trick of using connections. Zhang Yanfeng’s body was previously an undercover drug enforcement officer. He had completed the mission perfectly and almost sacrificed himself. It was also thanks to the continuous vicious major cases in Tongcheng in the past few months, it could be said that his qualifications were extremely rich.

If it was in the past and he wanted to go to the provincial office, Old Zhang would have been very happy. It wasn’t because he wanted to be promoted. It was for the sake of his progress. Except Zhang Yanfeng knew that as long as Zhou Ze opened the bookstore in Tongcheng, this ghost errand boy of his wouldn’t have been able to leave for a long time. Unless Zhou Ze suddenly decided to bring everyone to Nanjing. The provincial capital, to fight for territory.

“The lost time scattered in the wind as if I can’t remember to face it again. The days of wandering, you are accompanying…”

Accompanied by the BGM of “Years of Friendship”, Zhou Ze and the people in the bookstore were wearing black jackets. Lighting their lighters as they walked forward, ready to fight for territory. Except when he thought about how his boss liked to lie on the sofa in the morning and bask in the sun, Zhang Yanfeng felt that it was impossible to fight over territory.

“Huh?”

“Huh?” Zhang Yanfeng didn’t understand.

“Why are you still standing here?”

“Uh…”

“You can go now. Finish writing the case report and hand it in.”

“Okay.”

Zhang Yanfeng got up and was about to leave. When he reached the door of the room, he found a jade pendant that looked like an amulet hanging behind the door.

“Is this pendant engraved with a Pixiu?” Zhang Yanfeng asked.

Officer Chen was from Nanjing. To a certain extent, the Pixiu was the symbol of Jinling.

“It’s Xiezhi.” Officer Chen replied.

“Have you forgotten? My father is a prosecutor. This was a gift from my father when I joined the profession.”

“Oh, I see,” said Old Zhang as his body trembled.

Zhang Yanfeng opened the door and walked out. After the door was closed, Officer Chen picked up the piping hot cup of coffee again and drank it in one gulp. She was not afraid of the heat at all. She flipped open the documents that had been inverted previously on the table. There were a lot of photos and information inside, there were also the comments of several members of the Tongcheng criminal police squad regarding this new criminal investigations captain.

Everyone thought that the organization was preparing for the cadre promotion assessment and that it was a process. This matter was kept confidential. Among them… there was a photo of Zhang Yanfeng that caught her attention, of him repeatedly entering and leaving the bookstore on South Street. Inside it… there was a lot of information on Xu Le, the owner of the bookstore, and the identities of the other people in the bookstore. Some of their identities were marked with a big “?”

“Heh.” Officer Chen suddenly smiled as she put her hand to her lips. Out of habit, she began to bite his nails… click… clack… clack…

“…”

Zhou Ze didn’t know how long he had been unconscious. Thanks to the new skill he had just unlocked, he could now possess a body with more leeway. Although he couldn’t possess such terrifying strength like Cuihua did last time, it was already a great improvement for him. However, misfortune and fortune go hand in hand. If he didn’t have a breakthrough during the car accident and improved his perception of the body, the pain he felt during the car accident wouldn’t have been so intense.

He had fainted and he didn’t know how long he had been unconscious. When his consciousness began to recover, he found that he was still attached to this body. Only a wanderer who had left home would know the beauty of a home. In the same way… only a dead soul who had lost his physical body would know how happy it was to have a stinking body. He heard heartbreaking cries as many people were crying, they were crying miserably. Zhou Ze felt that he was still a little dizzy, it still took a little time to regain control of the body.

“Old Mr. Sun and Old Madam, I’m sorry for your loss. Right now, the most important thing is to let the children rest in peace.”

Zhou Ze was puzzled for a moment as he heard a familiar voice. It seemed to be the big teapot of the spa club. Oh no… it was the director of the funeral parlor.

“Hiss…” Zhou Ze sucked in a breath of cold air

“No way?”

“Don’t cry. Let the children rest in peace.” An old man’s voice sounded.

“Director Zhao, I’ll take my wife back first. I’ll leave the rest to you.”

“It’s our duty.”

The other relatives left, Director Zhao took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his forehead as he looked at the three corpses that were neatly arranged in front of him, “What a sin… what a f*cking sin.”

“Quick, cremate them… cremate them!”

The hospital had already confirmed their death. Regardless of whether his fingers were moving or not, even if this corpse suddenly stood up and danced… they still had to press it back and send it in to be burned!

“What f*cking bad luck!”

“Kacha…”

The iron gate of the incinerator was opened.

“Shit…” Zhou Ze.
