Chapitre 30: Are Demons Real
Éditeur: Henyee Translations
Qin Yang explained to the police officers.
Captain Zhou, who was leading the team, was stunned. For a moment, he did not know how to refute.
Could he say that the Celestial Master had broken the law?
He didn't keep the tiger to himself. The tigers were wild and usually lived on Dragon Tiger Mountain. According to the Celestial Master, this tiger had voluntarily lived in the Celestial Master Residence for a long time.
Therefore, it wasn't considered a private pet.
Did he take a wild beast out on the street?
The Celestial Master had said that he didn't want to bring this tiger along. Instead, he had been entrusted by the village chief of Big Domain Village to investigate the strange incident in the village. This white tiger insisted on following him.
The king of beasts insisted on following him. What could the Celestial Masters do?
The police officers probably even had to praise the Celestial Master. In order to not let this white tiger run around, he found a rope and put a leash on the tiger.
He was a law-abiding citizen!
Captain Zhou couldn't do anything to Qin Yang, the Celestial Master. He really didn't know what to do in this situation.
He could only make a call and report the entire incident to his superiors.
The superior fell silent after hearing that.
For a moment, no one knew how to deal with it.
In the end, the higher-ups could only give a reply.
Since the white tiger was brought out by the Celestial Master, it was fine as long as the Celestial Master could guarantee its safety and not hurt anyone. As for the ownership of this white tiger, they would communicate with the Wildlife Bureau of the city.
It was a top-level protected species and a mutated individual. This white tiger might be taken away by professional institutions afterward.
It shouldn't be wandering around like this.
After receiving a reply from his superior, Captain Zhou knew that he didn't have to worry about this matter anymore.
All the better.
Be it the tiger or the Celestial Master, he couldn't afford to offend them.
He didn't want any conflicts either.
After reporting the situation to the higher-ups, Captain Zhou looked at Qin Yang.
He said, "Celestial Master, are you also going down the mountain because of Big Domain Village?"
Just now, Qin Yang mentioned that he had come down from the mountain because of Big Domain Village.
Qin Yang nodded. "That's indeed the case. It was Village Chief Liu of Big Domain Village who asked for help from Dragon Tiger Mountain. The villagers have come to Dragon Tiger Mountain every year to pay their respects and off donations. I have to help them when the village is in trouble."
Captain Zhou said, "That's great. We happened to come from Big Domain Village too. The villagers there called the police and said that something strange had happened in the village. We've been investigating there for most of the day. We're going back there. If you're going there, you can join us."
Captain Zhou invited Qin Yang to ride with them.
Qin Yang didn't refuse Captain Zhou's offer and got into the police car.
As for the white tiger, Captain Zhou didn't know what to do with it.
He had invited the Celestial Master into the care. What about this big white tiger?
There were only two police cars, and they were basically full.
Such a huge white tiger wouldn't fit.
Qin Yang could tell that Captain Zhou was in a difficult position, so he said, "It's okay. Just drive. Little Bai will follow you."
It wasn't an ordinary tiger but one of the four divine beasts.
An ordinary adult tiger's intelligence was equivalent to a two-year-old human being.
However, the White Tiger, the divine beast, was as intelligent as a human being, if not smarter.
Even though it was still a cub, Little White was at least as smart as a ten-year-old child.
Qin Yang said, "Go ahead and drive your car. Little Bai won't lose you!"
Since the Celestial Master had said so, Captain Zhou let the police officer drive.
As expected, after the car started moving, the white tiger also followed closely behind.
Moreover, it was as fast as the car.
The strong white tiger's movements were as light as the wind when it ran along the road.
Several police officers clicked their tongues in wonder.
Indeed, the clouds followed the dragon, and the wind followed the tiger.
Its running posture alone was extremely beautiful.
…
On the way to Big Domain Village, Captain Zhou briefly explained the situation of their investigation to Qin Yang.
After all, the Celestial Master was going to Big Domain Village with the same purpose.
Moreover, the higher-ups of the police force were on friendly terms with Dragon Tiger Mountain.
The Celestial Master was an expert who was beyond the secular world.
Therefore, he could share some information with the Celestial Master.
Captain Zhou said, "The Purple Fragrance City Police Station received a call from the villagers of Big Domain Village this morning. They said that their village had encountered theft cases for nearly a month and had lost a large number of chickens, ducks, and geese. Now, all the chickens, ducks, and geese in the village have been stolen.
"The thief's methods were cruel. They left a large amount of blood at the crime scene. Some people even suspected that some unspeakable creature had bitten the chickens and ducks to death before taking them away. Now, there were no chickens or ducks left in the village. The thief even stole pigs.
"In a month, the villagers lost more than ten thousand yuan worth of chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs.
"Therefore, after we received the report, we immediately went to the scene to investigate the situation. We searched for the better part of the day and went to the houses of every farmer who had lost their animals. We searched around nests, but we didn't even get a single fingerprint. There are no unfamiliar footprints either.
"The villagers all say that it was done by the nearby evil mountain spirits, but we think that the description of demons and ghosts is too ridiculous. My opinion is that it's a group of professionally trained thieves."
In Captain Zhou's opinion, the people who committed crimes in Big Domain Village were definitely a group of experienced criminals.
At least a few members of the gang wwerekeeping watch.
They specialized in attacking at night. All of them wore gloves the entire time. There were even people who specialized in hiding their footprints. They were very professional.
As for why there was so much blood at the scene, it was very likely because it was difficult to take away live animals. It was easier to pack them up after killing them.
Most of the villagers in Big Domain Village were over 50 years old, and Captain Zhou felt they couldn't keep up with the outside world.
They didn't understand the equipment and methods of professional thieves, which was why everyone was panicking.
Demons and ghosts?
In Captain Zhou's opinion, it was just superstition and rumors.
As Captain Zhou spoke, the police car had already stopped at the entrance of the village.
Qin Yang got out of the car and walked to a big tree at the entrance of Big Domain Village.
He looked in a direction and narrowed his eyes. Then, he said, "Officer Zhou, I think this matter might not be as simple as you think. Is it possible that there are really mountain spirits and ghosts causing trouble near Big Domain Village?"
Captain Zhou originally thought that the Celestial Master would agree with him because his reasoning was logical and impeccable.
However, as soon as Qin Yang said this, Captain Zhou was stunned.
"Celestial Master, what do you mean? Do you also think that some demon or ghost stole the chickens and ducks in Big Domain Village? No way, are there really demons in this world?"
Captain Zhou had never seen demons with his own eyes, so he didn't really believe it.
However, when these words came out of the Celestial Master's mouth, Captain Zhou was confused.
Did demons and ghosts really exist?
