Even if you belong to a demonic sect, you still have to bring glory to the country.

Chapter 206 Was this self-defense?

They visited Zhou Kaihe's house in the afternoon.

At that time, although I felt something was wrong, I didn't think it was a big problem.

But when Sheng Daizhen saw the house that night, she had a bad feeling.

Now that premonition has come true.

Things were more serious than expected. What was initially thought to be the accidental death of a landlord in the city had turned into a serial murder case, and the killer had even escaped.

Sheng Daizhen immediately contacted the police station to set up a tight net, blocking all highway entrances in Xia City and instructing them to strictly check all vehicles entering and leaving the city.

They were afraid that Zhou Kaihe would escape by car.

It wasn't until the message was sent out and Sheng Daizhen went to find Yang Xifei that they discovered it and called the police first.

How it was discovered, and how long the murderer has been on the run, are all crucial questions.

When Yang Xifei called the police, Sheng Daizhen first asked her seriously, "How did you realize something was wrong?"

Yang Xifei subconsciously looked at Amon.

Sheng Daizhen's gaze followed Amon, incredulous: "Could it be that you smelled it again?"

"Yes, with so many corpses, his smell must have seeped into his body. How could we not smell it?"

It was only natural for Amon.

Sheng Daizhen gasped: "But how did you get into his house to confirm it?"

How could Zhou Kaihe get a little girl like Amon to willingly enter his home?
Amon chuckled.

Sheng Daizhen then asked the most urgent question: "How long has it been since you discovered the suspect and called the police, and how long has he been on the run?"

Yang Xifei opened her mouth, unsure how to explain, but fortunately Amon wasn't one to keep people in suspense. She said, "He hasn't left here; he's still in the mountains."

"How did you know?" Sheng Dai couldn't believe it, feeling that this little girl was becoming more and more confusing and eerie.

Amon looked around and saw that there were many police officers around.

She looked at Sheng Daizhen, put her hands on her hips, and said, "Do you want me to take you to catch it?"

"..."

That's really weird.

She's a criminal police officer and she's not afraid of anything.

But a little girl wants to lead him into the mountains to catch a serial killer?

This is absolutely horrifying.

Sheng Daizhen's lips trembled. Suddenly, Amon leaned closer and said, "I'll take you there. If you catch them, you'll get credit, and you might even find out the truth. Do you dare?"

Yang Xifei, standing beside her, said hesitantly, "Officer, don't worry. Amon is just a little mischievous. She really can help you catch the murderer. If you're worried, I can go with you."

“I’m a police officer, I’m not afraid,” Sheng Daizhen said. “But it’s too dangerous to go into the mountains to catch the murderer, so I can’t let you go.”

Yang Xifei added, "I don't have to go. You take Amon with you. She'll be fine. She really knows where the murderer is."

Sheng Dai was truly confused, but she knew that catching the murderer was more urgent.

Police officers were immediately dispatched to prepare to enter the mountains to make the arrest.

He glanced at the somewhat strange little girl, Amon, and said, "Then stick close to me."

She wasn't afraid of Amon doing anything, but rather that it would be their responsibility to protect the little girl if they couldn't do so in this situation.

But since the girl was an eyewitness, what could she do?

She knew where the murderer was.

Shengdai really needs to protect her.

Amon followed them into the mountains without a care in the world.

Yang Xifei wasn't worried about Amon and the others getting into trouble. She was just wondering if Sheng Daizhen would notice something was wrong with Amon and then call the police in the middle of the night instead of her.
After this happened a few more times, she felt her heart couldn't take it anymore.

*
The mountain forest area behind Gaodi Village is quite large, and there are many orchards planted there.

Sheng Daizhen and the other police officers dispersed to go up the mountain to make arrests, and occupied several major intersections.

They went up the mountain along these roads to arrest people.

Amon, however, had his eye on the right direction and headed down only one road.

Sheng Daizhen couldn't help but ask, "Did you see the suspect run up the mountain?" "No, I didn't see him," Amon replied casually.

"Are you so sure?"

Amon turned his head and glanced at Sheng Daizhen. At this moment, there were only two policemen nearby shining flashlights around.

I didn't pay much attention to Shengdaizhen's side.

Amon suddenly moved his finger, and the next second Sheng Dai saw a scene that gave him goosebumps.

A centipede suddenly crawled out of Amon's arm. Sheng Daizhen's pupils contracted, and she immediately stepped forward to swat it away: "There's a bug—"

Amon shrank back: "What are you doing? This quality is hard to find. If you kill me, where am I going to find one next time?"

Sheng Daizhen: "??"

She was truly stunned.

Then she saw the centipede wriggle on Amon's arm, but it didn't bite him.

Then Amon crouched down, and the centipede slipped into the deep mountains under the cover of night, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

“I can find out where a person is by following the insects; if their scent is the same as that person’s.”

Sheng Daizhen suddenly realized that it wasn't so far-fetched that she had smelled a corpse just a few days ago.

She's lived for almost thirty years and has never seen anything so surreal.

Sheng Daizhen's voice was somewhat hoarse: "How...how do you control the insects?"

Amon: "It's something you're born with, don't be envious."

Shengdai Zhen: "..."

The two of them walked along, bypassing a large apple orchard, until they arrived at a secluded place.

There was only a patch of forest here, and the ground was covered with withered yellow leaves.

There is a ramp ahead, and below the ramp is a slope at nearly 45 degrees.

Suddenly, Amon pointed to the slope and said, "There's a hole over there, see it? He's inside the hole."

Sheng Daizhen's eyes widened. She really didn't want to say that she hadn't seen it.

It was too dark for her to see the hole in the slope.

A gentle breeze suddenly blew by, and a patch of dead leaves covering the slope was blown away, revealing a dark hole.

Shengdai Zhen: "..."

Her expression immediately turned serious, because the police department had allowed officers to carry firearms since the arrest of a murderer was so sudden.

She placed one hand on her sidearm as she carefully approached the opening.

Zhou Kaihe, who was inside the cave, also looked horrified.

He never expected that the place he had set up for so long would be found so easily.

Today's events were absolutely bizarre.

And that damn little girl!

Hearing the noise, Zhou Kaihe gritted his teeth, took out his powerful flashlight, and shone it on the people outside.

The light was so blinding that Sheng Daizhen instinctively closed his eyes. Realizing something was wrong, he suddenly drew his gun and shouted, "Zhou Kaihe, you can't escape!"

"I never intended to run away!"

As soon as the ferocious words were spoken, Zhou Kaihe saw the smiling little girl beside Sheng Daizhen.

He crawled out of the cave and headed towards Amon.

Even if he gets arrested today, he will make this little girl pay the price!

When Sheng Daizhen forced herself to open her eyes despite the discomfort, she saw Zhou Kaihe rushing towards A Meng.

Her heart was pounding like a drum, and she was about to raise her gun and fire.

Although firing a gun might result in a major demerit afterward, I can't bear to think about it anymore.

But the next second, she saw Amon grinning and reaching out his hand.

Zhou Kaihe, who lunged forward, was like a puppet suddenly controlled by someone. He knelt on both knees, and one of his legs bent uncontrollably. Sheng Daizhen heard the sound of bones breaking.

The next second, Amon suddenly withdrew his hand. "Hey, is this considered self-defense?"
