Chapter 157 The Paper Crane Searches for a Person
Amy's father suddenly asked Cao Kun, "Master Cao, are you good at finding people?"
Cao Kun chewed the beef in his mouth and swallowed it: "It depends on the situation. We need to check if the missing person left any personal belongings."
Amy's father was unsure: "There should be one, I can ask."
Cao Kun: "Who has gone missing?"
Amy's father: "She's a friend's daughter."
Cao Kun: "How long have you been missing?"
Amy's father thought for a moment: "Four days have passed. We reported it to the police, and they searched, but they couldn't find it. They are very anxious now."
Cao Kun: "After four days, if you have any personal items, the scent on them should still be there."
Ask around, and if they have any, I can give it a try.
Oh, and tell him my fee: $10. No money if I can't find him.
"Okay, I'll make the call right away."
In order not to disturb Cao Kun and his family's meal, Amy's father got up to make a phone call.
Just as Cao Kun finished eating, he rushed back: "Master Cao, yes. There's a necklace left behind, and some unwashed undergarments. Can we use these?"
Cao Kun: "Okay."
Amy's father was overjoyed: "That's great! When can we set off?"
By the way, my friend agreed to the $10.
Cao Kun: "Let's not delay, let's go now."
Amy was fine and didn't want to cause any trouble, so she stayed at home.
Although Hunter also wanted to go and see what was going on, his girlfriend was clearly more important, so he stayed behind.
In the end, only Cao Kun and Amy's father went.
The place that Amy's father mentioned, this friend, lived in was rather poor.
However, it is also a mid-to-high-end community.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to come up with $10 for Cao Kun.
On the way, Amy's father gave a brief introduction.
The missing girl's name is Erin Moker. She is 17 years old and still in high school.
According to him, he was preparing to go out to visit a friend on the weekend when he went missing.
At first, her parents didn't know and thought she was at a friend's house.
It wasn't until evening, when she hadn't returned for a long time, that he called to inquire.
It turned out that she hadn't gone at all.
They immediately called the police, but the police refused to file a case because it had not been 24 hours.
Twenty-four hours later, the police finally opened a case, but they could no longer find any trace of the suspect.
As soon as the car stopped, a middle-aged white couple came out to greet us.
Amy's father introduced him, saying, "This is the very powerful exorcist I was talking about—Master Cao."
He just revived Amy.
The middle-aged couple's gazes towards Cao Kun immediately became fervent.
Eileen's mother hurriedly said, "Please save my daughter, Master Cao."
Cao Kun nodded: "I will do my best, but I will not make any guarantees."
Eileen's mother said in a deep voice, "We understand. Please come in. We have prepared what you requested."
The group entered the house, and Cao Kun saw what they had prepared.
A necklace that Eileen once wore.
A pair of underwear that Eileen had changed out of and hadn't had time to wash yet.
Eileen's photo and date of birth, accurate to the hour.
Cao Kun: "A $2 advance payment is required, with the balance due upon finding the person. If the person is not found, the advance payment is refundable."
Cao Kun did not forget his own rules.
Before this, Amy's father had already spoken to Eileen's father.
"We are ready."
Eileen's father took out a check for $2.
After Cao Kun put them away, he didn't linger any longer. With a wave of his hand, he took out the prepared cinnabar ink, as well as a talisman brush, yellow paper, and other items.
Cao Kun picked up the talisman brush, converted Eileen's birth date into the Eight Characters (Ba Zi), and wrote it on yellow paper.
He then put the necklace and his personal clothing into a box and attached a talisman to it.
Next, he folded the yellow paper with Eileen's information on it into a paper crane.
Previously, Cao Kun had searched for Bella Fleck, who had been killed by Jason.
At that time, Cao Kun was still a teacher, and his magical powers were weak.
Only the most basic Taoist methods of finding people can be used.
It's not only troublesome, but also has a low success rate and low accuracy, only providing a general direction.
But now, Cao Kun is a Taoist master.
Even though he's just a junior celestial master, he's still a celestial master.
Things are no longer the same.
He is now using the Taoist method of finding people using the crane.
Under the watchful eyes of Amy's father and Eileen's parents, Cao Kun placed the box containing his personal belongings on the table.
Place the paper crane on the box.
Then take out an incense burner and light three sticks of incense.
Next, Cao Kun began to perform hand seals and chant incantations:
"Paper cranes carry incense to carry on the old traditions, their souls resonate and seek traces. The Big Dipper guides the way, and the journey home is just a stone's throw away."
"Hurry, hurry, as the law commands!"
boom!
The talisman stuck to the box instantly burst into flames.
But amidst the firelight, the paper crane flapped its wings and took flight on its own.
It circled around a few times, seemingly searching for direction.
The next moment, it moved and tried to crash into the wall.
Cao Kun quickly reached out and used his magic to restrain it, temporarily preventing it from flying away.
"this……"
Amy's father and Eileen's parents were dumbfounded.
They couldn't believe that a paper crane could fly like that.
"Master Cao, this..."
Eileen's father wanted to ask something, but Cao Kun interrupted him, saying, "Don't ask. Just drive and follow the direction it points."
"Okay, I'll go get the car."
Eileen's father said no more and hurriedly ran out.
Soon, the car started, and Cao Kun walked out of the room and got into the car with the paper crane.
Eileen's mother wanted to come along, but Cao Kun stopped her, saying, "You shouldn't go; something bad might happen."
Eileen's mother wanted to ask something more, but Eileen's father stopped her, saying, "Listen to Master Cao, I will bring Eileen back."
Finally, Cao Kun and the fathers of his two daughters set off in their car.
Cao Kun loosened the restraints on the paper crane, and it immediately flew forward, even turning at the intersection.
Oh, actually, it turns even before reaching the intersection.
It will only indicate straight roads and will be placed on the left and right sides of the car.
Once the car reaches the intersection, simply follow the turn.
"Master Cao, this is truly amazing. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes."
Amy's father looked astonished.
Cao Kun said calmly, "Let's talk about it after we find the person."
The car drove far, far away, and the further it went, the more it veering off course.
Finally, we arrived at the outside of a manor.
And the direction the paper crane points to is right there.
Eileen's father suddenly became excited: "Master Cao, is Eileen inside?"
Cao Kun flipped his hand and put the paper crane away: "If my spell doesn't fail."
Eileen's father said urgently, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go in and rescue them."
Cao Kun calmly asked, "Do you know what's inside?"
"Such a manor is not something an ordinary person can own."
"There might be armed forces inside. Going in would not only fail to rescue anyone, but would also put you in danger."
Eileen's father was stunned for a moment: "Master Cao, you're right, then we'll call the police."
Cao Kun: "For a place like this to dare to arrest people here, I don't believe that the owner of this place has no connection whatsoever."
Are the police in your country, M, trustworthy?
Will they stand on the side of justice, or on the side of money and power?
Eileen's father was speechless for a moment.
Clearly, he was very clear about which side the police in Country M were on.
"Then... what should we do?" Eileen's father's eyes reddened.
