Chapter 44 Becoming an Immortal Through Evil Path
Chapter 44 Becoming an Immortal Through Evil Path
This man is an actor active in Hong Kong films in the real world. He has won many awards for his superb acting skills and is known as a film emperor.
He starred in a gangster movie, and one of his lines became a meme that stuck for years.
"After I finish speaking, who is in favor and who is against?"
Li Xuan's heart stirred, and he looked at the man, saying, "May I ask who you are?"
The man, dressed in a simple T-shirt and jacket, looked exhausted. Upon hearing Li Xuan's question, he reached for the sign hanging around his neck and said, "Taipei Police Department handling the case."
Huang Huotu, Foreign Affairs Division, Taipei Police Department.
Blah blah blah...
A black notebook appeared out of thin air, its pages flipping to reveal lines of text: [Contact key figures to begin the current world overview.]
[Double Pupils: An ancient Jiaozhi Taoist priest reincarnated as twins. The elder sister became an immortal in the womb, while the younger sister, Xie Yali, after being born, replicated a Taoist temple in Taipei and used the "Five Hells" torture to kill five "sinners," intending to use police officer Huang Huotu to complete the "destruction of immortality" ritual. Huang Huotu, suffering from hallucinations, shot and killed Xie Yali, allowing her to successfully "ascend to immortality."]
The plot of the movie "Double Vision" entered Li Xuan's mind in the form of a video playback.
He finally understood why the news of Liao Zhenfu drowning in his office, which he saw in the newspaper outside the milk tea shop, felt somewhat familiar at first.
That's because in real life, when he was scrolling through short videos, he came across a commentary about this movie.
Unfortunately, the commentator was a "cut-out" type of commentator, only showing a quarter of the storyline and then cutting it off at a crucial point, trying to attract netizens to search for his name and gain popularity.
Li Xuan didn't indulge him and didn't search, so he only knew a small part of the plot of "Double Vision".
Now that I've "watched" the full movie, I understand the whole story clearly, and I also understand why several police officers from the Taipei Police Department, including Huang Huotu, were here.
In order to become an immortal, Xie Yali imitated the ancient practice of the Five Hells, killing certain evil people called "human demons" who had committed crimes, accumulating merit, and then dissolving into immortality!
Li Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly; Xie Yali's method was an unorthodox approach.
Damn it...
Putting aside the demon, just look at her two disciples, Lin Daosheng and Huang Yifeng. When the police investigated the Zhenxian Temple, in order to protect the secret of becoming an immortal, they actually incited believers to engage in a massacre with the police! Limbs and torsos littered the ground, blood flowed like rivers, and countless innocent lives were lost...
Those who seek immortality should be righteous and virtuous individuals who have attained enlightenment!
Their behavior has led them astray, turning them into evil cultivators...
Secretary Liu's voice interrupted his thoughts: "Excuse me, what agreement did President Liao discuss with you before? I don't know anything about it."
She is a decisive and efficient woman, and Liao Zhenfu would consult with her beforehand on many things.
Although Li Xuan had already obtained crucial intelligence, he still needed to exchange a few words with Secretary Liu to conceal his identity and leave in a reasonable and unobtrusive manner. After a moment's thought, he looked up and smiled:
"Naturally, it's about the wastewater treatment project at the Taipei factory. Mr. Liao is very troubled by the villagers on both sides of the river. They have repeatedly reported the issue, and if this continues, problems will inevitably arise. Fortunately, we know a middleman, so we met with him a few times."
Where did this brat come from?!
Secretary Liu's eye twitched, even though the sewage discharge was no secret.
But don't say it in front of these police officers. Doesn't she, as the secretary of Taifeng Group, have any dignity?
It seems that the Oule company that General Manager Liao negotiated with before his death was nothing more than a low-quality company with a showy facade. After all, big companies wouldn't send such a stupid employee to negotiate.
Think of this.
She said coldly, "Sorry, I don't understand what you're saying!"
She didn't even bother to glance at Li Xuan. Sitting on the sofa, her attitude became arrogant, and she said, "There's no record of the name 'Oule Company' in President Liao's list of tasks. Taifeng Group is very busy lately. If we find any cooperation contracts related to Oule Company, we will notify you. That's all..."
Li Xuan looked embarrassed.
The officers nearby were also getting a headache, especially the captain, who thought to himself, "This young man is so clueless about social etiquette, he's just as stubborn as Huang Huotu, who reported his own brother-in-law!"
Huang Huotu had no idea what his teammates were thinking, but hearing Li Xuan's straightforward conversation, he felt a strange sense of camaraderie. The world was a chaotic mess, blurring the lines between good and bad, and desperately needed fresh blood from these straightforward young people.
Unfortunately, he was just the head of some company, not a policeman.
Otherwise, we would definitely get along very well as partners...
Li Xuan slunk away from the meeting room.
Huang Huotu sighed and looked at Secretary Liu, saying, "Liao Zhenfu's death is too suspicious. This is a murder case, and you can't just ignore it. He died in his office. Strictly speaking, all of you who work in this building, especially those who work around him, are suspects. You must report to the Taipei Police Department before you leave Taiwan."
Secretary Liu was furious upon hearing this.
She stood up abruptly, walked closer, stared at Huang Huotu's sign, and said coldly, "Officer Huang... Huotu, you have quite the airs of authority! Just because of suspicion, you want to restrict the freedom of us good citizens who diligently pay our taxes every year! You must take responsibility for every word you just said, I will definitely file a complaint against you..."
"Please make yourselves at home, I have something to attend to!"
Secretary Liu skipped the formalities, left the meeting room with a cold face, and even slammed the door shut with a loud bang.
The people in the meeting room had different expressions; some were gloating, while others were sighing.
The captain reached out and patted Huang Huotu on the shoulder.
He wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say. After hesitating for a long time, he said, "I know you're eager to solve the case, but you should leave the communication with outsiders to other colleagues in the future."
Several people walked out, leaving Huang Huotu standing there blankly.
He licked his dry lips, his gaze falling on his reflection in the floor-to-ceiling window. His haggard face, sunken eyes, and dark circles made him look like someone who wasn't alive.
Why……
What went wrong...?
Huang Huotu walked out of the conference hall in a daze.
His mind was a complete mess: his wife's disappointed look, his silent daughter, the distant attitude of his colleagues, and the transfer order that had recently transferred him from the Major Crimes Unit to the Foreign Affairs Unit.
Walking out of the Taifeng Group gate.
His colleagues drove off without even waiting for him...
Looking at the bustling streets, Huang Huotu suddenly felt that the world was so unfamiliar. When he was a child, he aspired to become a hero who would rid the people of evil.
At that time, the world he saw was filtered.
There is no balance between good and evil!
but……
But now, besides his daughter, he has almost nothing left...
Huang Huotu suddenly caught a glimpse of a person squatting on the cement flower bed next to the gate. It was the young man who had been speaking "righteously and sternly" in the conference room upstairs.
The young man looked somewhat dejected, sitting on the edge of the concrete, his hands on his knees, head bowed in frustration, looking utterly lost... just like a carbon copy of Huang Huotu.
He walked over as if possessed and said, "Why haven't you left yet?"
Li Xuan raised his head, his face full of sorrow and exhaustion, and said, "Where else can I go?"
Huang Huotu's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously said, "How about we find a place to sit down if there's nothing else?"
