Weird Live Broadcast: I Can Deduce Endlessly

Chapter 101: Surrender

"I once encountered a serial killer in the weird world. He brutally murdered 13 women, but even his red glow wasn't as bright as yours! As a woman, why do you harbor such malevolence?"

Furious, Qu Kangping slapped the woman across the face.

Yet, there was not a scratch on her face. Instead, Qu Kangping's wrist ached as if he had struck steel.

"Hee hee hee…" The woman chuckled, "A man hitting a woman, how impressive."

In return, she slapped Qu Kangping hard across his face.

Stars flashed before Qu Kangping's eyes as he stumbled backward, falling to the ground.

Everyone's gaze shifted to the woman. Only to see whiskers growing from her face, slowly morphing into the features of a cat.

"A...monster!"

"Run!"

The crowd screamed in unison, scattering in panic.

The woman with her identity exposed, didn't bother to keep up appearances. In a few swift moves, she dashed towards the entrance of the old house. Ah Jian and Hu Chang stood guard, one on each side.

Ah Jian pulled a gun from his waist.

"Forget it... Stop right there!"

Hu Chang took out a megaphone, tossed it aside, and drew his gun out.

"Stop right now!"

"If you run, we'll shoot!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Ah Jian and Hu Chang fired their weapons.

The woman dodged with nimble agility, but Ah Jian's marksmanship prevailed. A burst of blood blossomed from the woman's leg, causing her to stumble and fall.

The two men approached, their weapons aimed at the woman, ejecting their empty magazines.

The woman's blood poured out, quickly staining the ground red.

"Brother, is she dead?"

"Hold on, let me check."

Ah Jian took out a container of salt from his pocket.

This specially-made salt was the best weapon against weird beings. After taking down these creatures, one must sprinkle them with this salt to completely destroy or subdue them.

Ah Jian approached the woman, only to see her head suddenly twist 180 degrees.

Those profound cat-like eyes stared at Ah Jian, reminiscent of the stars in the sky.

"Meow~ Am I pretty?"

Holding the container of salt, Ah Jian was at a loss for what to do.

Qu Kangping, leaning against a wall by the door, took out a gun from his pocket, aimed at Ah Jian, and pulled the trigger.

"Ugh!"

Ah Jian grunted, falling to the ground, and twitching uncontrollably.

However, this act saved him from the woman's mental assault. A few more seconds of eye contact and Ah Jian would have been reduced to an imbecile.

The woman, covered in blood, got up, her eyes filled with resentment.

"Mr. Qu, we have no grudges against each other. Was it necessary to go to such lengths?"

"Less talking during a fight!"

Qu Kangping drew his gun and aimed it at the woman, firing repeatedly.

The bullets from the strategy team's guns were special; they contained mercury. Once the bullet entered the body of a weird creature, the mercury would spread, causing significant harm.

--Especially to those humanoid weird beings.

"Meowww!"

The woman screamed, unleashing all her weird power.

A sharp pain hit Qu Kangping's head. He looked at his gun and couldn't resist pointing it at his temple.

Ah Jian, who was unconscious on the ground, remained unaffected by the mental assault.

Hu Chang broke down, screaming and banging his head against the exterior wall of the old house, blood pouring from his wounds.

"You brought this upon yourself! It was you who made me kill!"

The woman sneered and turned to run out of the town.

Qu Kangping yelled, aimed his gun at the sky, and emptied the magazine. His powerful mental strength helped him overcome the woman's weird power.

"Don't run!"

Qu Kangping swung his arms and chased after her.

Now that he had identified the culprit, he couldn't let her escape.

Currently, Qu Kangping was unarmed, only a stun gun was left. However, this weapon was only effective against regular humans, and its efficacy against weird beings was limited.

The woman stood at the entrance of the town, looking smugly at Qu Kangping.

These humans couldn't resist the thick fog outside the town, but the woman had been in and out of it countless times. She could leave on her own without any guidance.

"Goodbye, Captain Qu."

The woman waved her hand and took a step.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle——

The stun gun hit the woman in the back, but she didn't feel anything.

"How ridiculous..."

The woman continued to walk, but she suddenly felt her body go numb and her face was in extreme pain.

Crack crack——

"Why... is this happening?"

Her cat-like face turned into blocks of black pixels and fell to the ground. The weird power was draining from her body like a receding tide.

The stun gun worked and she stood stiffly in place before collapsing backward.

"Ugh——"

The woman fell to the ground, twitching non-stop.

Qu Kangping was stunned for a moment, then walked up to the woman holding the gun, only to see her foaming at the mouth and her eyes rolled back.

Through his spiritual vision, Qu Kangping saw a dead black cat lying next to the woman, indicating that all her weird powers had dissipated. He took out his phone and called his team.

"Send more people here. I think I've got a key figure."

"How's the investigation going?"

"The woman's name is Ai Fei, the mayor of Huang Jia Town. She owns dozens of properties in the city, and her husband is a ringleader in human trafficking, whom we have also captured. Moreover, when we looked into her financial sources, it appears she might be involved in money laundering.

As for the source of her weird power, we're still in the dark. However, two years ago, we found that she had adopted a girl named Xiao Ling from Huang Jia Town.

Upon investigation, I found out that Xiao Ling was actually a trafficked child, and the ones who sold her were her own parents. Her mother died of lung cancer, and her father was burnt to death in a car accident.

Xiao Ling's body was covered in scars, likely from abuse.

This girl's fate has been extremely tragic.

A year ago, Xiao Ling was diagnosed with lung cancer, but less than two months later, it was declared a misdiagnosis.

Sometime later, she was diagnosed with brain cancer, with a tumor in her head the size of an egg. The doctors said she had no chance of recovery and probably wouldn't live for another three months.

However..."

"However, this girl is still alive now?"

"Exactly," Ah Jian nodded, "But she has been in a vegetative state, constantly sleeping, and never woke up."

Hu Chang's head was wrapped in bandages, Qu Kangping's eyes were red and swollen, and apart from a headache, Ah Jian wasn't injured at all.

Qu Kangping glanced at the report and pushed open the door to the ward.

Xiao Ling lay on the bed with a rigid expression, her eyes tightly closed.

Ah Jian leaned in and whispered, "This girl has been in deep sleep and has never awakened. There doesn't seem to be any weird power in her."

"That's not true."

Qu Kangping said calmly.

"I interrogated Ms. Ai yesterday. Her weird power originates from this child. As long as she waters Xiao Ling's feet with a large amount of fresh human blood every day, Ai Fei can wield the weird power.

However, as for the specific principle, even Ai Fei can't explain. Perhaps only when Gu Yi returns to the real world can we understand everything."

"What should we do next?"

Qu Kangping looked at the sleeping girl and shook his head. He sat next to her and whispered, "The ones who harmed you, Uncle have captured them. They have paid the price they deserved. I promise you will not suffer anymore."

Qu Kangping pulled back the curtains, letting a beam of sunlight shine on the girl's face.
