Chapter 1309: Unexpected Turn of Events

ill both be banished from Phoenix City immediately.The ripples carried a faint sense of solemnity."Yes, your servant understands!"The Great Princess immediately knelt down and paid her respects. Since...Yu Liang rubbed his nose, knowing that Lian Yi was hinting at the "6.15" case before. So he said straightforwardly:

"This time I will apply for funds to help solve the case, hoping Miss Chou can help."

Upon receiving a positive response, Lian Yi nodded.

"So, just take me to the scene during that time of the accident so I can make a judgment."

"Okay, I'll pick you up at ten o'clock tomorrow night...and your cat."

Yu Liang paused for a moment and also extended an invitation to the whirlwind.

The whirlwind let out a "Meow" in response, and then Yu Liang simply said goodbye.

As Yu Liang was leaving, he brushed past Wen Yu Lian who had just entered. Wen Yu Lian glanced at the other person's back before stepping inside.

"Ripples, was that officer here because of something to do with the Tao family"

"No, it's something else. I should go to the scene and have a look. Are you interested"

Ripples asked.

"I'm interested, but I'm really busy lately. My master asked me to visit some elders and I haven't found them yet. Let's do it next time!"

Wen Yu Lian is very measured in her actions; she wouldn't do something like steal business from her colleagues.

"Well, never mind then. You busy yourself. We can talk later when you have time."

The ripples were just a polite inquiry. The two finally got together for a sumptuous lunch, and Ripples learned from Wen Yu Lian the reason she had been working so hard lately.

"Master has been living in Hong Kong City for a long time, and he's already accustomed to life there. It's been almost thirty years since he last came back here. This time, on the surface, I was invited by Tao Jingfeng to protect them, but in fact, I also came back to see my master's fellow disciples."

It's a pity that the master left too long ago, and many fellow disciples have lost contact. It's more troublesome for me to find them, so I've been running around outside recently.

Today, I finally managed to contact an uncle master, but he had already passed away, leaving only a disciple guarding the mountain gate, who was unable to leave.

"I'm going to look for the other two seniors again. If I don't hear back, I'll head to my master uncle's mountain gate. If you have time then, you can come with me."

Wen Yu Lian issued an invitation, mainly because it was her first time back, she was unfamiliar with the place, so she wanted to find a companion.

"That's fine, I'll just treat it as a vacation."

Ripples readily agreed.

The two chatted idly for a few more moments before heading back to their respective rooms. Ripple didn't see Wen Yulian again until dinnertime.

That night at nine thirty, Yu Liang came to pick up Ripples. He was very punctual, and Ripples got into the passenger seat holding Fengyun, took the file that Yu Liang handed her and started reading it. Yu Liang started the car and drove towards their destination.

The car was incredibly quiet. Lian's whirlwind in her arms was also staring at the files, which surprised Yu Liang a little. However, he didn't ask because he knew he wouldn't get the answer he wanted.

Half an hour later, Yu Liang's car flashed its headlights and stopped on a viaduct. He then pointed to somewhere and said:

That's where the car accident happened.

Rill glanced at Liang then said:

"May I go take a look Is it convenient"

"It's 10 o'clock now, the time when the car accident happened a few days ago. The traffic is still quite heavy now, it's not convenient for you to go and take a look. It might take another hour or so. What do you think"

Yù Liàng glanced at his watch and then sought Lán Yī's opinion.

"Then let's go have some supper first, and come back here at twelve."

R ripples agreed readily.

"Good."

After that, the two of them and the cat went to a 24-hour open-air stall for dinner. They ate their fill and arrived at this elevated bridge just as planned.

Because it was already midnight, there were much fewer cars on the road. A car would only pass by every half an hour or so. Yu Liang's car carefully parked at the scene of the crime.

Ripple unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car. She looked around, then frowned and asked the whirlwind in her arms:

"Cyclone, what did you see"

"Master, not found temporarily."

"That's strange, the atmosphere here is definitely off."

Ripple kept pacing back and forth at the scene of the crime with the whirlwind, even walking onto the pedestrian walkway on the overpass. She looked down for about a minute before leaving the railing.

"Miss Chou, how is it Can you see anything" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Yu Liang asked eagerly.

"I can tell you, the car accident was not an accident. It was definitely influenced by something, but I haven't found the other party yet."

Ripple got straight to the point and gave the answer.

"Then...that's just impossible to catch, isn't it"

Yu Liang said helplessly.

"I didn't find it doesn't mean he's not nearby, maybe he's hiding. Can I meet the car owner who was involved in the incident tomorrow"

The ripple spoke responsibly.

"OK."

Yu Liang's agreement was swift, and anyway, since they had already come this far, it wasn't a big deal to go the extra mile.

The two agreed to meet tomorrow, so Yu Liang sent Lianyi back.

That night, a tabby cat was meowing in the yard. After Twister went out for a bit, the meowing stopped.

When the ripples asked him the next day, the whirlwind said:

"Master, Liang Yong has moved. He went to that overpass last night at midnight and circled around a pier for a long time."

Ripple, after hearing this, raised an eyebrow and asked:

"Was it the place that the captain took us to last night"

"Yes!"

"That's interesting, no wonder that bridge keeps having chain-reaction accidents."

Liàn Yī more firmly believed her judgment, but she just didn't know where the ghost was hiding now.

"Master, I have Xiao Lihua watching him. She will definitely notify me the first moment something happens."

The Cyclone's underlings are still pretty reliable.

"I understand. You shouldn't always make others do the work, you should give your underlings some perks from time to time. Do you need me to get some cat food"

The ripples asked.

"Just regular cat food, I'll take it as payment for helping them."

Feng narrowed his eyes and replied.

"Okay, I understand."

After the man and cat had just communicated, Yu Liang arrived. This time he brought Lianyi to the hospital to see the car owner, who was also seriously injured.

The ripples this time didn't bring a whirlwind, allowing him and his underlings to bond.

After arriving at the hospital, Ripple was stunned to see a man wrapped up like a mummy, and then she frowned and said to Liang:

"Captain, please ask the family to leave."

"Okay."

Yu Liang didn't ask much. Politely, he asked the family members accompanying him to leave, saying that he needed to ask some questions related to the case.

The moment the door closed, the man lying in bed opened his eyes. He stared intently at the ripples.

Ripple sat casually on the stool beside the bed and spoke:

Are you coming out on your own, or should I beat it out of you

"It's not that I don't want to come out, but if I do, he will die."

The man's lips twitched, and he finally rasped out an explanation.

"Severely injured like this, there's no way he can survive. What is your purpose To kill him and take his place After so many trials, you finally succeeded this time"

Ripples asked in a cold voice.

"No, I didn't mean to harm anyone. I just wanted to warn them, but no one saw me. Everyone who saw me met with misfortune. But there's nothing I can do. I can't leave that bridge. This is the only time I borrowed someone else's body to escape."

The man panted as he explained.

"Reminder Reminder of what Do you need me to remind you this way"

"The bridge is collapsing!"athic transmission instead:Our captain knows the exact location of the three-petal phoenix tail lotus, but there's a level 3 mid-stage guardian demon beast beside it. So he wants to find some strong p...
