Why Did You Provoke Her? She Can Tell Fortunes!-Chapter 120 - 93: Could There Be a Ghost in This Livestream Room?

Chapter 120: Chapter 93: Could There Be a Ghost in This Livestream Room?

He walked a couple of steps to the side, though he answered the phone, his attention wasn’t much directed towards Wen Xu. His eyes lingered longingly over the small room of just a few square meters, trying to see if anything else would come to mind.

"Hello? What’s up?"

A clear voice came through the receiver, "Mu Yunchu is livestreaming."

Feeling Zhou Zhicheng’s obvious pause, he thought for a moment and added, "I think you should watch it, she seems to be talking about this case."

The same name, the same profession, and the same cause of death.

If it wasn’t the same person, it would be too coincidental.

Of course, there was another reason that made Wen Xu so sure—he remembered Xia Ling.

Even though they were separated by a corridor at the time, and she quickly closed the door, Wen Xu still remembered that face.

Compared to Mu Yunchu’s livestream mentioning the case, what surprised Zhou Zhicheng more was hearing the former’s name from Wen Xu’s mouth.

Wasn’t he always very disdainful of this kind of thing? And didn’t like Mu Yunchu?

So his unprecedented first question wasn’t about the case, but instead he asked:

"How do you know?"

There was silence on the other end of the line.

Wen Xu lowered his eyes to look at the screen of his personal phone, at that face exuding coldness, his expression somewhat complex.

After a while, he withdrew his gaze and told Zhou Zhicheng, "The second reading is about to end, you might not be able to find clues from her soon."

Then he hung up the phone without saying anything else.

At that time, Xia Ling had already cut off the connection. Based on the usual rhythm of the livestream, next Mu Yunchu would continue to draw the third lucky person.

Trying to ask for related details would be inconvenient.

That’s why Wen Xu said so.

As someone who had appeared multiple times amidst these happenings, Zhou Zhicheng naturally was very aware of this.

At the moment too preoccupied to fret over why Wen Xu was watching Mu Yunchu’s livestream.

Probably got a notification while browsing videos.

Otherwise, he couldn’t have specifically followed her and monitored the livestream, right?

Zhou Zhicheng, after hanging up, hurriedly opened the Whale platform.

The screen showed only Mu Yunchu.

But the comments and live chat among viewers were still incessantly talking about the matter.

It seemed the second reading had left a deep impression on them.

There was no rush to move to the next reading.

However, what’s coincidental is that Mu Yunchu seemed to have no intention of proceeding either.

She calmly watched the screen without doing anything and occasionally glanced at the time.

Ten seconds after Zhou Zhicheng entered the livestream room, Mu Yunchu suddenly glanced at the screen.

Zhou Zhicheng inexplicably felt like she was looking at him.

Then, this feeling was validated.

Mu Yunchu’s thin lips parted slightly, "Captain Zhou, I’ve been waiting for you for a while." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

[What? Who’s Captain Zhou?]

[You must be a new fan; all us older fans know who this is.]

[So, who exactly is he?]

[He’s an old police officer, at least at the rank of captain. Our streamer helped him solve a case before, and it seems he’s back because of what we discussed earlier.]

[Police??? Sorry, I’m a new fan today, don’t understand, just asking—do police often come here?]

[It’s not just the police; you can encounter almost anything here.]

[???]

[...It’s okay, you’ll get used to it. We older fans have lived through these kinds of days too.]

Although they had interacted multiple times before. Also aware of her extraordinary foresight.

Yet when she predicted everything accurately and called his name, Zhou Zhicheng couldn’t help but freeze for a second.

Then quickly regained his composure.

"If I didn’t guess wrong, you’re at the murderer’s residence now?"

Zhou Zhicheng nodded self-assuredly to the screen.

Which appeared somewhat odd to outsiders.

In the team, people like Hu Chi were evidently used to it. And knew what Zhou Zhicheng planned to do when he opened that app.

In contrast, those unaware of Mu Yunchu, especially the hotel owner standing clueless, exchanged confused glances.

Streaming now? Not searching for evidence?

Yet they dared not say anything.

...

This time Zhou Zhicheng wasn’t surprised.

His expression didn’t change at all.

Just wanted to continue listening to Mu Yunchu.

Completely forgot he could use the mic feature.

Mu Yunchu continued, "The victim was strangled to death by him, so you won’t find a murder weapon."

Zhou Zhicheng pressed his lips together.

He had considered this earlier.

Just when he thought he might have come in vain today, Mu Yunchu suddenly told him, "However, there is a key piece of evidence at his place."

This time, netizens didn’t miss the moment Mu Yunchu’s gaze shifted away.

And they could tell she seemed to be in silent communication with someone.

After confirmation, she relayed it to Zhou Zhicheng.

But almost nobody thought she was seeking ’external help’, rather another terrifying thought emerged.

[I have a bold speculation, this livestream room... could it have ghosts?]

Though it wasn’t midday, the sunlight outside was still bright.

Yet after this comment popped up, everyone inexplicably shivered.

As if someone blew a breath down their neck.

[Are you talking about Zhu Hong?]

[I don’t think so... even if there were, she should be with the killer. As the saying goes, grievances have a source...]

Even Zhou Zhicheng, accustomed to witnessing all sorts of settings, felt the ambient temperature drop a notch.

Instinctively glanced behind him.

Mu Yunchu didn’t respond to that comment.

Whether she missed it or silently acknowledged...

Unexplainably, their sixth sense told them it was the latter.

Mu Yunchu began using deduction for its location, hence remaining silent for a while.

While the murderer aimed from start to finish directly at Zhu Hong.

However, after committing the murder, he focused on her house.

Though Zhu Hong’s house was messy, especially with many livestream utilities.

"The murderer feared staying too long in the room would draw attention, so he didn’t rummage through the cabinets but went straight for Zhu Hong’s jewelry cabinet."

In his mind, what was stored there was probably the most valuable.

Zhou Zhicheng recalled the scene during the investigation.

Noticed then that the jewelry box was completely empty.

That’s why he wanted to find those missing pieces at Fang Haiyang’s place.

But found himself at an impasse.

Originally he’d thought, although not knowing which videos were missing, the sheer quantity must be significant.

"He indeed took them all away, but you overlooked one thing."
