I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

Upon hearing Bishop Hermann's description, Li Yuan immediately raised an eyebrow.

He thought to himself, "These idiots are already throwing money and experience at me?"

He agreed without hesitation:

"sure."

Herman was overjoyed to see Li Yuan agree so readily.

However, Li Yuan's next words stunned Herman.

"Since Bishop Herman himself has admitted that it is a corpse that you cannot dispose of?"

"Then I'll just take 500 million from you."

Hearing the somewhat outrageous offer, Hermann glared and loudly questioned:

"Are you crazy? Even robbery isn't done like this!"

"Oh? Are you sure you want to talk to me like that, Bishop Hermann?"

Hearing Li Yuan's slightly threatening tone, Herman quickly apologized in a low voice:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Li Yuan, I lost my composure..."

He paused, changed his tone, and said with a mournful face:

"Your price is indeed too high, you see..."

"No! This isn't high at all; I charge very high prices."

I just want you to know that good steel should be used where it's needed most.

Li Yuan's exorbitant demands were also to prevent him from being taught to make trouble over trivial matters in the future.

If it's something they really can't handle, Li Yuan is happy to lend a hand.

After all, if there really are evil beings who want to destroy the world, they are destroying Li Yuan's world.

Hermann said with a hint of helplessness:

"Alright, Mr. Li Yuan, I'll discuss it with the archbishop and get back to you soon."

After hanging up the phone, Li Yuan did not return to the office.

Instead, they turned around and headed straight for the airport.

He believed the church would definitely pay.

On the church side,

Herman strode into Roger's office and said somewhat awkwardly:

"Your Excellency, Li Yuan is asking for a reward of 500 million."

Roger, who was signing the documents, heard Herman's words and his eye twitched.

However, he quickly calmed down and said to Hermann in a nonchalant tone:

"Say yes."

Hermann's eyes widened immediately, and he asked with some confusion:

"This...isn't that too much?"

"If we don't agree, Li Yuan will think we're playing him for a fool."

If he takes this opportunity to cause trouble, it will be even more complicated.

I don't want to see him showing off in front of me anymore.

Roger looked up and glared at Herman, then reprimanded him in a low voice:

"Next time something like this happens, consult with the court staff first."

If you really can't solve it, then go find Li Yuan. He's a brainless idiot.

"Yes, Your Excellency! I will be more careful next time."

Hermann blushed with shame after being scolded, lowered his head, and quickly said:

"I'll call him back right away."

With that, he bowed and quickly retreated.

Roger put down his pen, rubbed his temples, and muttered under his breath:

"If Keanu were in Los Angeles, I could ask him for help."

Li Yuan had just parked his car at the airport.

Then he received a call from Herman.

Li Yuan answered the phone with a smile and asked softly:

"How is it, Bishop Hermann?"

"We agree to your request."

After Hermann finished speaking, he went on to propose other conditions:

"But we can only pay a deposit of 100 million first, and the balance can be paid after the matter is resolved."

"Okay, then I'll set off now."

"Just hand over the money to the Holy Light Agency, and I'll get started once the money arrives."

After the two confirmed the payment method, Li Yuan hung up the phone.

At the airport, I inquired about flights to Virginia.

However, Loanoke Airport, which is closer to Grantham County, has no direct flights.

Li Yuan had no choice but to fly to Richmond Airport first, and then turn back a short distance.

By the time the plane landed at Richmond Airport, it was already 7 p.m. local time.

After receiving confirmation of receipt from Jamie

Li Yuan called Herman again.

After Hermann answered the phone, he asked the first question:

"Mr. Li Yuan, the deposit has been paid. Where are you now?"

"I've arrived in Richmond, Virginia."

Li Yuan glanced at the surrounding road signs to confirm the location of Grantham County:

"Who should I contact when I get to Grantham?"

"Mr. Li Yuan, you're really fast."

Hermann was very surprised by Li Yuan's efficiency.

He still thought Li Yuan was in Los Angeles at that time.

Then, Hermann explained to Li Yuan:

Grantham County Police have moved the body to a private morgue there.

Once you arrive, you can contact the local sheriff, Mr. Burke.

"Okay, remember to send me your phone number."

After hanging up the phone, Li Yuan glanced at the situation around him.

Finding that no one was paying attention to him, he summoned the Holy Light Motorbike.

He then checked the road sign for the direction of Grantham.

I hopped on the motorcycle and headed straight for my destination.

The Holy Light Motorcycle streaked across the dimly lit highway at night, leaving a golden trail.

They vanished in an instant.

Along the way, the drivers of vehicles overtaken by the Holy Light motorcycle,

They all stared in disbelief at the receding golden streak of light.

For a moment, they thought they had encountered aliens.

However, the state police refused to give up and turned on their flashing lights to give chase, eventually losing sight of Li Yuan's taillights.

Meanwhile, in Grantham County.

Inside the autopsy room of a morgue called Tilden Morgue.

On the cold autopsy table, a black body bag was pulled open.

A naked corpse was revealed.

Sheriff Burke of Grantham County,

He was holding a stack of photos and talking to Tommy, the morgue owner.

"Tommy, the woman's body was found in the basement of the Douglas house."

She had no identity, no fingerprints could be found, and nobody knew her.

As he spoke, Tommy muttered something to himself:

"However, the local pastor felt there was something wrong with the body and wanted me to leave it where it was, but I refused."

Tommy, who was looking through photos of the crime scene, unexpectedly glanced up at Burke.

Then, he nodded thoughtfully.

Just as Burke was about to continue explaining,

A small tabby cat in the dissection room suddenly started hissing very loudly.

"Sizzle—"

The kitten's hiss interrupted Burke's words.

Tommy, who was flipping through the photos, suddenly turned his head and scolded him somewhat displeasedly:

"Stanley! Stop yelling!"

The kitten shrank its neck as it was scolded.

It glanced at its owner and then quietly left the dissection room.

"That damn guy, he's getting fiercer every day."

Burke smiled helplessly and pointed to the corpse in the photo, saying:

"Inside the house, besides this woman's body, there were four other bodies, but I recognized them all."

Tommy, I need your help. We need to know who she is.

Just then, Tommy's son Austin walked in.

He said with some regret:

"I wish I could see the crime scene."

Burke shook his head upon hearing this and said:

"I don't think the deaths of those four bodies are related to this woman's body at all."

Tommy sighed and asked Sheriff Burke:

When do you want the results?

"I'd better do it tonight, so I can explain to the media tomorrow morning."

"All right."

Tommy, who should have been off work, ultimately accepted the job.

He glanced at his son Austin, who was dressed casually, and said with a smile:

"Austin, you shouldn't have come back."

Austin raised an eyebrow dismissively and said:

"I know, but I can't leave you here alone."

Austin was supposed to be on a date with his girlfriend to see a movie.

But when he saw that another new body had been brought into the house, he did not leave.

Although Tommy didn't say it, he was very aware of his son's willingness to stay and help.

He was still very pleased.

As they spoke, the father and son changed into their dissection gowns.

Arrange the necessary equipment.

They then completely opened the body bag and lifted the naked female corpse onto the autopsy table.
