Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 532 - 110: Scar Wang is Just a Nickname

In the heart of Xiao Ke, he also didn’t hold Wang Yunxiao and his team in high regard.

They didn’t study diligently in school, didn’t work hard at their jobs, and always seemed to stir up trouble when idle, quickly resorting to violence at the slightest disagreement.

From any angle, they seemed more like loafers than proper police officers.

As for what proper policemen should be like... well, the police department didn’t even exist until two years ago; it used to be called the Yamen.

Gao Shan was a respectable man, of course, Xiao Ke knew this standard might be somewhat unrealistically high.

The President had maintained Tianmen for many years, where culture, economy, and social landscape had all developed well, leading many children to believe, from a young age and quite naturally, that the entire Ming Country, or even the whole world, looked just like their surroundings.

Used to having rich meals three times a day, they would throw a tantrum at night if they found no meat on their plates, thinking that their mother had a lover, their father had gambled away the family fortune, their company had gone bankrupt, the city was destroyed, the country was in collapse, and human civilization had stopped progressing...

When the related laws and regulations were not yet well-established, you could not expect a bureaucracy inherited from years ago to evolve perfectly at the press of a button—it required a gradual process.

Similarly, when demons and evil spirits had not yet been eradicated, it was impossible to unilaterally impose harsh demands on the Special Service Section; doing so would be akin to fighting with one’s hands tied.

There’s an old saying that goes, "you can you up, no can no bb."

Xiao Ke felt he was not quite capable, so although he was not particularly fond of Wang Yunxiao and his group, he still maintained respect.

Moreover, the Special Service Section was, after all, Nantong District’s own, and whether you were from the Supervision Bureau or any other agency, if you had a problem, you could go to the director. Directly interfering with the Special Service Section’s operation was an overstep of authority.

Thus, this time, Xiao Ke chose to stand on Wang Yunxiao’s side.

He had two reasons for actively coming along; one was to try and mediate disputes and clear up misunderstandings whenever possible. But in cases like Jiang Wuyang’s, where blatant misunderstandings couldn’t be reasoned with, he also wanted to understand the situation on the ground and report to Qin Xiangdong at the first opportunity.

However, it turned out he had worried too much.

Jiang Wuyang hadn’t even met Wang Yunxiao in person before he was disarmed by Wang’s garrison soldiers and beaten to a pulp.

What misunderstanding? There was no misunderstanding!

When Jiang Wuyang was dragged into the room and tied to a chair, Wang Yunxiao didn’t even waste time giving him an extra look.

Xiao Ke, who followed in, noticed a tall stack of file dossiers on the desk in front of Wang Yunxiao, and in the corner, there was a person who looked even more miserable than Jiang Wuyang, their face bruised blue and purple, blood sprouting from their mouth and nose, in utterly dire straits.

"Captain Wang?"

Xiao Ke greeted him and approached Wang Yunxiao.

Wang Yunxiao raised his head with a smile and gestured for him to sit down.

Contrary to the external world’s imagination of Scar Wang from Nantong District, Xiao Ke’s view of Wang Yunxiao was never that of a man with a fierce tattooed torso, a back and shoulders like a tiger and bear, and a gaze fierce as a leopard’s, demonically slaughtering countless people.

This young man was almost always composed and cool-headed, occasionally cracking innocuous jokes when speaking, and his demeanor and articulation did not resemble those of ordinary folks but rather suggested a well-educated child from a middle-class family.

In the eyes of ordinary people, personnel from the Special Service Bureau seemed less human—they did eat and talk like others, yet there was always a feeling that they belonged to a different species from normal human beings.

The police department’s own Special Service Section was somewhat better, lacking such a pronounced sense of alienation.

But today, when he saw Wang Yunxiao, he vaguely noticed the shadow of a Special Service Bureau officer on him.

Blood was still staining his gloves, and several blood-soaked paper wads lay on the ground, carelessly discarded after wiping his hands.

Yet, he ignored them, calmly and coldly flipping through the documents as if the bloodstains didn’t exist.

"Director Qin asked me to come and see what has happened here," he said.

"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"What’s the lie?"

"You know we can’t handle certain special incidents with just a single small squad, like the last incident at the Nederland Consulate, where we invited several other squads including the Church to coordinate in combat. It is the same this time, we are collaborating with the Customs Emergency Team to investigate the Shen Family."

"And the truth?"

"I find the Shen Family displeasing."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wuyang, who was tied up and gagged, immediately struggled, and Guozi grabbed his hair, delivering a backhand slap that knocked him out.

Xiao Ke said helplessly, "How am I supposed to explain this to Director Qin?"

"Explain what? Are you asking why I find the Shen Family displeasing?"

Wang Yunxiao casually handed him a document.

Xiao Ke tried to ignore the bloody handprint on the document and opened it, glancing briefly.

"Madam Zhang missing, insufficient evidence, case not filed..."

"Keep reading, start from the fourth page, fifth line."

"March 4, Father Zhang reports to police, case not filed... March 10, Father Zhang disappears... March 12, Mother Zhang hangs herself... March 13, Zhang’s younger sister disappears..."

Noticing Xiao Ke’s increasingly serious expression, Wang Yunxiao said with a smile, "Let me summarize for you, it’s about a case in March this year when the parents of the Zhang family reported their daughter missing. She was a student at Seaside District Yucai High School, with excellent grades, and was supposed to take the college entrance exams this year. There had been sightings of Shen Zhinan, the third son of the Shen Family, pestering her at the school gate before she disappeared."

"Due to insufficient evidence, the case was not filed, and subsequently, seven members of their family, ranging from a grandmother in her sixties to a little sister aged twelve, gradually disappeared. It can be said that they vanished without a trace."

Xiao Ke frowned and said, "You’ve already said there’s insufficient evidence, so why do you still suspect the Shen Family?"

"Once might be coincidental, a framing, a random incident, but then..."

Xiao Ke followed Wang Yunxiao’s gaze to the stack of dossiers about three feet high on the table and was at a loss for words.

"There’s this too, and it’s also quite interesting," he said.

Wang Yunxiao passed another document to Xiao Ke, who opened it to see it roughly stated, "Residents of Apartment XX illegally excavated a basement during renovation, unearthing four human skeletons, suspected to have been hidden by Shen Corporation Construction Company during foundation filling... Insufficient evidence, case not filed."

"What’s interesting is the testimony of the witness. Someone confirmed that the toy excavated along with the skeletons was identical to the one frequently played with by the children of the original homeowner before the Shen Family’s demolition, but the witness recanted later."

Wang Yunxiao spread his hands and said, "If you follow the official procedure for the investigation, all these cases pointing to the Shen Family will eventually come to nothing. Witnesses recant or disappear directly, insufficient evidence, and invalid evidence... Isn’t this miraculous enough for you to report back to Director Qin?"
