Chapter 188: Driving the tiger away from the mountain
"what???"

Chen Zhan and Sun Shaobo exchanged a glance and immediately understood Ye Ningzhen's meaning: at this point, autopsy methods could not be accurate to the minute.

If the murderer killed the woman first and then raped her, it probably wouldn't be detected by the test.

Sun Shaobo was stunned, and gasped, "No way... that's so perverted."

Chen Zhan's gaze froze. He had been in this world for half a year and had seen many ruthless people, pitiful people, and madmen, but he had never encountered such a pervert.

However, he had heard of it.

There are certainly more psychologically twisted people in this era.

With no other information, Sun Shaobo agreed to increase patrols, hoping to solve the case as soon as possible.

The two walked out of the police station.

Heavy heart.

Chen Zhan initially didn't intend to get involved, since it was Wang Xiangzhai's family matter. However, after listening to Wang Xiangzhai's account, he felt that he should be arrested, not only out of personal favor but also because it was a good thing to rid the people of a scourge.

I just learned about it from Sun Shaobo.

Knowing the harm caused by the Little Red Coat, we must catch her and bring her to justice!

The two had only taken a few steps when Ye Ningzhen felt a little uncomfortable. The autumn wind was bleak, and it was still a bit cold in the afternoon. The wind in the alley of Beiping seemed to have a spirit, and it kept sneaking into her cuffs and collar.

Ye Ningzhen shrugged, tugged at her collar, and the two quickly left.

Upon returning to the Bagua Hall, most of the disciples followed him south, while the rest were dismissed.

So the Bagua Hall simply became a place for everyone to live.

Chen Zhan instructed Little Fox to summon the members of the Thieves' Guild and Tian Jingjie.

We'll go out together tonight.

Sister Hua still retains her charm, making her a good bait. Moreover, in terms of acting skills, she surpasses the three sisters by a great margin.

When Chen Zhan explained the situation, Bai Wu and Li Yao were so angry that their eyes widened.

"There are such scumbags???"

"The forest is so big that there are all kinds of birds."

"We'll all go out together tonight and kill him."

Chen Zhan told the two to shut up.

Sister Hua was very calm. She understood what Chen Zhan meant: "We can't make a big fuss. When fishing, there shouldn't be too many people around the angler."

"That's right. The more anxious you are, the calmer you need to be. If you startle him, he'll run out of the capital and you'll never find him again."

Make a plan.

As darkness fell, the four women set out.

Chen Zhan and Ma Fengtu watched from a distance in the shadows.

With all five senses activated, carefully perceive every person who passes by.

Upon arriving in Xicheng, the four separated. Ye Ningzhen headed north from Xisi Hutong, with Chen Zhan following behind.

Tian Jingjie also joined in, following Sister Hua.

After a few days of training, Ye Ningzhen felt quite natural wearing a red padded jacket. Although the style was rather rustic, her tall stature and good figure gave it a unique charm.

She walked quickly, looking hurried, as if she had something urgent to do.

We were already walking through a secluded alley, and now that it was even darker, there wasn't a soul in the alley.

It would be strange if Ye Ningzhen appeared relaxed.

They followed the predetermined route.

The fog rolled in at night and grew even thicker.

However, it will not have a significant impact on Chen Zhan; his visibility will not decrease much.

Ye Ningzhen hadn't encountered anyone, let alone "Little Red Coat".

Suddenly, Chen Zhan heard urgent shouts: "Got him! Got him! Come quick! Damn it, that bastard has finally shown up!"

Upon hearing Bai Wu's voice, Chen Zhan flashed forward and rushed over.

The sound is audible quite clearly, which means it's not very far away.

Chen Zhan moved swiftly through the alleys, his figure disappearing into the fog.

At the entrance of Baihua Alley, a middle-aged man was pinned to the ground, with Bai Wu and Li Yao on top of him, while Wang Xiangzhai watched from the side.

The man wailed, "Damn it, you've mistaken me for someone else! Why are you arresting me? Are you crazy?"

He was holding a newspaper in his hand, not unfolded, but wrapped around something.

"Damn it, look at the knife in your hand. You almost stabbed Sister Hua just now, and you still dare to argue!" Bai Wu said angrily, and then punched him hard in the back, breaking his back bones.

"Ah~!"

"It wasn't me! I didn't know there was a knife in the newspaper. Someone offered me two silver dollars to give the newspaper to that woman. How would I know what was going on?"

The middle-aged man was dressed in slovenly clothes and had no martial arts skills. He was in a miserable state, roaring and screaming in pain.

A group of people surrounded them, including members of the Thieves' Guild and disciples of Wang Xiangzhai Martial Arts School.

Chen Zhan walked over and, hearing the middle-aged man's words, felt they didn't seem to be lying. He pushed through the crowd and said, "Get up."

Bai Wu and Li Yao got up from him. Bai Wu said, "I saw him rushing towards Sister Hua from afar. There was a knife hidden in the newspaper. That's the kid."

Chen Zhan nodded, just about to speak.

Seeing that Li Qingsu and Ruan Zhi had also run over.

Chen Zhan's gaze sharpened. "Something's not right!" he thought to himself.

Turn around and stomp your foot.

"Oh!"

He leaped forward, his body booming out of the spot and instantly disappearing into the night.

It arrived even faster than it did.

Based on the distance, when I arrived, Ruan Zhi and Li Qingsu had already arrived, and Ye Ningzhen should have arrived long ago as well.

but now.
Chen Zhan's heart sank; he knew he had fallen into a trap.

She's only been back for a minute or two; Ye Ningzhen shouldn't be unable to hold on for more than two minutes.

Chen Zhan darted swiftly through the alley, like a hawk in the night, swooping down from a low altitude and flying dozens of meters with a single touch.

a few minutes ago.

Chen Zhan and Ye Ningzhen heard the sound at the same time. Chen Zhan was too fast and immediately turned back.

Ye Ningzhen was also rushing over when she bumped into a young police officer on a bicycle at the corner.

She's very young, maybe in her early twenties at most, and has a very youthful face.

I had seen him at the police station during the day. When I followed Sun Shaobo into the room, the other party was coming out of the archives. I glanced at him briefly, but it was too short to forget.

The bicycle collided with a person. Ye Ningzhen was unharmed, but the young police officer on the bicycle fell to the ground.

Ye Ningzhen wanted to go over and help her up: "Are you alright?"

The other person was wearing a police hat with the brim lowered. "It's nothing, it's nothing."

When He Shiqi saw Ye Ningzhen reach out to help him up, he opened his hands and let Ye Ningzhen grab his sleeves and pull him up.

Ye Ningzhen squeezed her sleeve and pulled hard, and the young patrolman immediately stood up.

However, Ye Ningzhen noticed that the other party didn't seem to stop after getting up and instead stumbled towards her.

A sudden chill ran through me.

In a flash of inspiration, she took a small step back and did not try to help him up again.

It was this step that saved him from a fatal blow.

He Shiqi thrust out the dagger from his sleeve, but it wasn't far enough. He pushed it forward abruptly, but it only managed to pierce his ribs.

He looked up in shock, only to be met with Ye Ningzhen's fierce "Double Palm Exchange!"

"Oh!"

Ye Ningzhen's hand rose from under her ribs, not having time to lift it much, and then pressed her palm down on her opponent's chest! Both palms struck out at the same time!

But they weren't able to use their full strength.

The dagger was still stuck in his waist.

He Shiqi was sent flying several meters away. He turned and left. He didn’t think Chen Zhan would take long to react, nor did he think Ye Ningzhen would lose her mobility immediately.

He had also practiced boxing and had some skill, so he knew how strong the vitality of a person who had achieved mastery of martial arts was.

I've wanted to make a move ever since I saw Ye Ningzhen after get off work three days ago. I met her at the police station yesterday and looked through her file. I know that Ye Ningzhen is a master of Baguazhang.

However, Chen Zhan's specific identity is unknown.

He has no right to see Chen Zhan's file.

Even so, even knowing that Ye Ning was truly a master.

Still blinded by greed, he decided to take action.

A twisted and abnormal mindset, where desires consume reason, makes it impossible to control oneself.

Chen Zhan didn't need to sense it carefully; he had already heard the sound.

Hearing the commotion behind her, Ye Ningzhen knew Chen Zhan had arrived and shouted angrily, "It's that little patrolman!"

Chen Zhan instantly appeared beside Ye Ningzhen. She had been stabbed in the waist, but upon seeing Chen Zhan approach, she immediately said, "I'm fine. Go after him first. I broke his ribs."

Chen Zhan nodded, but didn't rush to chase after her. He scooped her up and held her in his arms. This time, he couldn't abandon her again.

With another step, he was already ten zhang away.

"Over there," Ye Ningzhen pointed in the direction.

"Yes, I heard him breathing. He can't escape!"

Chen Zhan could hear the panting two streets away. Ye Ningzhen's palm had injured his lungs, and he was panting heavily as he ran, like an old bellows. It was all very clear.
