Chapter 24: Cobwebs and Horse Tracks

  That afternoon, I suggested going out for a walk, Ah Xue hastily stopped me and anxiously asked what I was going to do. Ah Xue was afraid that I would do something foolish again and also worried about my injury, so she prevented me from leaving.

  "Don't worry, Ah Xue, I'm just not feeling well, so I'll go out for a walk." I comforted Ah Xue and said, "Ah Xue, you go back and take care of mom first, I'll go to the city to take a stroll."

  I stroked Ah Xue's head and told her to go home first.

  "Brother, where are you going?" Ah Xue still looked at me with concern, frowning and asking me.

  "I'm just going to take a walk in the city, don't worry, my brother won't do anything stupid." I smiled helplessly and comforted Ah Xue. Ah Xue looked at me with concern, but finally nodded understandingly and went home first.

  A Xue has been a considerate girl since she was young, and her thoughts are actually very delicate.

  After seeing Ah Xue get into the taxi, I immediately rushed to the hospital where Zhou Qin and others took me that day, found the female director, lifted the hook soul technique from her body, and regained control over the hook soul technique. Then, I went to the pedestrian street to buy some sliced cakes and a set of women's clothing, and hurried to the well where Hu Xian was located.

  The old well was almost unchanged, and it was about the same as when I left yesterday. The only difference was that the few corpses at the bottom of the well were gone. Obviously, Wang Gang had already disposed of the bodies according to my orders.

  From this point on, I can also see that although the Soul Hook Technique can control people's hearts, it won't affect their intelligence and abilities.

  "Look at your worried face, did you make a mistake?" Down in the well, Hu Xian ate the mochi I fed her while teasing me.

  "Hmm." The Fox Fairy was indeed thoughtful and meticulous, and from my spider silk trail, she could see what had happened to me yesterday. I didn't try to deny it either, and admitted my mistake. "However, because of this mistake, I also gained a lot, next time, I won't make the same mistake again." As I said that, I clenched my fist.

  Upon hearing my words, the Fox Spirit hummed softly and smiled:

  "Don't worry about biting your tongue off."

  "Don't worry, this time it's absolutely not because I'm overconfident." I said to Hu Xian, "This time, I have a very detailed plan."

  "Is that so." The fox spirit seemed uninterested in my guarantee, and without saying anything else, shifted her gaze away. I looked at the fox spirit's indifferent expression, then used a thread to tie the plastic bag of sliced cake and the mineral water bottle together, hanging them from the top of the cave. Then I said to the fox spirit:

  "I've hung all the food you're going to eat on the iron chain. If I don't come back in a day or two, eat slowly."

  Seeing what I did, Hu Xian slightly frowned her delicate eyebrows, but didn't say anything more.

  "Lazy." The fox fairy just said these two words and turned her face away, saying nothing more.

  Seeing the fox spirit's cold and detached demeanor, I couldn't help but want to laugh. I left the well bottom and returned home, waiting until midnight when I met Wang Gang at East Bridge as instructed earlier and removed the Soul Hook Technique from him.

  This way, I can control three people again!

  The names of these last three people, I must make good use of them.

  Yanyan's body is still in the hospital morgue. We need to contact the crematorium before we can hold the funeral. These past two days, my mom hasn't been doing well because she was hit hard by Yanyan's passing and has been talking nonsense all day long. Now that I have the money, which belongs to Zhang Guohua, it's only right that I use it for my mom's hospital treatment.

  But I really don't want to move Zhang Guohua's money. With the skills that Hu Xian gave me, if I wanted to get the money, it would be too easy.

  The day after removing the hook soul technique from Wang Gang's body, I still had a relatively stable life. Ah Xue was in a bad mood and needed her brother to comfort her. Every day, I accompanied her by her side, chatted with her, watched TV together, and thought of ways to make up a few jokes to tell her, hoping to improve her mood.

  That day was a rest day before I took action, and I actually started working on it after that day, which is the third day.

  Four days had passed since Yan's death.

  Because Zhang Guohua and others secretly manipulated the situation, and Ah Xue had already accepted the money to "let things go", the police concluded that it was an accidental death, and they didn't even ask us to come to the station for a talk before closing the case.

  And the first thing I need to do is to start with the KTV where my sister died and call out all those rich second-generation kids.

  The KTV that was harmed is Yinyue Di, which is a relatively well-known KTV in Wuxi City, second only to Jinbi Huihuang.

  Yanyan was harmed by Zhang Guohua's son in the KTV private room. I obtained this information from Chen, the doctor who originally told me about Yanyan's death, using the phone records at home to get it out of him.

  "I'm going to the funeral home, and I'll buy some vegetables on the way. You stay at home with mom, Ah Xue. Don't go out. No matter who comes, don't open the door."

  "Alright. Be careful on your way out, brother." Ah Xue's eyes revealed a hint of sadness once again as she spoke in a depressed tone.

  "Don't look so gloomy, smile."

  I patted Ah Xue's head and gave her a comforting smile. Seeing my smile, Ah Xue also forced a faint smile.

  "I will be back as soon as possible."

  I waved at Ah Xue and then put on my coat, turned around and walked out of the house.

  The cold east wind messed up my hair, cutting at my face with each gust. When I turned around, the smile on my face had already turned into a solemn expression.

  Ah Xue doesn't know, this time I'm going out... is to take revenge.

  Due to the effect of hooking soul technique, I took a free taxi from home and rushed all the way to Silver Disco.

  The purpose of coming here is to investigate the contact information of those four brown-haired people.

  When registering as a member at KTV, it is necessary to leave contact information and ID. Although those four brown hairs were not yet 18 years old, the ID documents were probably borrowed from someone else, but I think phone numbers should have been left behind.

  This is a breakthrough, and it can lead all of them out.

  Because of the loss of life, this KTV's business has cooled down a lot.

  When I entered the KTV lobby, there were few people inside, and the number of waiters was more than the number of customers.

  I walked straight up to the front desk and stood in front of the cashier.

  "Sir, would you like to book a private room?" A young cashier asked me politely.

  "I want to." I said with a smile.

  "Would you please take out your valid ID and register here?" The cashier said politely, taking out a piece of paper from under the counter for me to register. "Sir, would you like to apply for membership? There are discounts available."

  "Is that so." I pretended to be interested in the cashier's membership card, leaned close to his face, looked into his relatively clear eyes, and then concentrated my spirit on the pupils, lowering my voice and saying, "From now on, listen to me, got it?"

  Upon hearing my order, the cashier's expression changed from being calm and collected to stunned, but quickly returned to normal.

  It succeeded. This time, my Soul Hook Technique succeeded.

  "Alright." The cashier looked at me with a fixed gaze and responded with a nod.

  "Answer my question, how many surveillance cameras does this KTV have?"

  The cashier thought for a moment and said: "There are five. Two in the hall, one in the toilet, one at the stairs, and one in the corridor."

  "Alright." I nodded and said, "After I leave, within an hour, use chewing gum to stick those camera lenses together so no one can see. After you're done, wait for me in the bathroom."

  "It's been counted." The cashier nodded and said to me.

  "Uh-huh." I nodded and said, "Bring me the membership registration records of those four male students who caused trouble here a few days ago. I'm sure you have them stored in your computer."

  "Sir, those four are students and cannot apply for membership cards," the cashier told me.

  "What were they doing in the private room when the incident happened?" I asked in a low voice.

  "They borrowed someone else's ID card to open a private room." The cashier replied truthfully.

  "Someone else's ID? Whose?" I frowned and asked, but in my heart, there was a strange feeling.

  "Look, this is the name of the person who registered for the ID card." The cashier pulled out a registration book and flipped through it for several days until she found the registration list from a few days ago, then pointed to the name on it and said to me.

  I narrowed my eyes, lowered my head and looked at the place where the cashier was pointing, and when I saw the name that the cashier was pointing to, the confusion in my heart turned into shock in an instant.

  "How...is this possible?"

  Seeing the names on the list, I felt a complete blank in my mind.

  The name on the list is actually...

  Long live the king!

  It's actually my name!

  "Alright, two more this afternoon, and two more tonight, so six updates today."
