Chapter 1271: Chapter 940, Talking to a Ghost_2

Xiao Xiao continued, "Uncle, give me the doll, I’m going to find Sister Lilith to play."

Wu Heng took out the doll, and Xiao Xiao completed the possession.

"I’m going to play now!" Xiao Xiao said, about to run out.

Wu Heng reminded, "Xiao Xiao, don’t forget what I told you before, don’t let anything slip."

Xiao Xiao immediately replied, "Uncle, don’t worry."

After saying that, she ran out with a tap, tap, tap.

The few people continued chatting in the living room. Shanaela returned from outside, and they had dinner together.

...

On the other side, at Lilith’s Mansion.

In the study, the butler brought tea and pastries, then stood straight to the side and smiled, "Wu Heng Leader’s efficiency is as clean and swift as always."

"Too much energy leads to trouble." Lilith said with some irritation, and then added, "Go downstairs first, I’ll call you if I need anything."

"Yes, Miss." The butler walked out.

When the door closed, Lilith took a stiff crow out of the brocade box.

Droplets of fresh blood dripped down, and the crow’s eyes lit up accordingly.

When the sixth eye also lit up, the crow seemed to come to life, jumped onto the desk, and tilted its head to look at her.

Lilith glanced at her finger, and the wound instantly healed. Then she said, "Wu Heng caught the murderer. The body and the Wenshi records will be sent to headquarters together tomorrow. The female priest who died had already died during a mission before. Attending the banquet was to frame Wu Heng and have the Holy Court eliminate him."

After quickly recapping the situation, she waved at the crow.

The crow turned, flapped its wings, and flew into the void.

Lilith’s pale fingers picked up a pastry and she ate it bite by bite, waiting for a moment.

Ripples appeared in the air, and the crow reappeared, standing on the desk, speaking in human language, "The Holy Court also received news from the local church. The situation is becoming increasingly severe. Send the Wenshi report over as soon as possible, and temporarily don’t let Wu Heng leave Gold and Silver Island."

After speaking, the crow’s body stiffened and fell onto the desk.

Lilith put the crow away and sighed softly.

She couldn’t keep an eye on him herself.

Knock, knock~!

A gentle knock sounded, and the butler’s voice came from outside the door, "Miss, ’Xiao Xiao’ is waiting for you in the living room."

Lilith’s lips curved slightly, and her body gradually shrank as she opened the door and went downstairs.

Xiao Xiao immediately said, "Sister! Let’s go to the entertainment center to play the dance machine!"

"Alright." A smile appeared on Lilith’s cold face. She then said to the butler, "Go prepare the carriage."

"Yes." The butler left.

Xiao Xiao stood up, pulling her hand and heading out.

Lilith asked, "What level was the ghost that got killed? How did it manage to hide from your uncle?"

Xiao Xiao said, "Uncle told me not to say anything; you should ask him, Sister!"

Lilith gave her a glance, "All my care for you was in vain."

"Then in a while, when we play games, I’ll spend money. I took a lot from Uncle."

"Alright." Lilith nodded.

The two got on the carriage and headed toward the entertainment center.

...

Island Lord’s Mansion.

After dinner, Wu Heng returned to the study.

Glenda floated not far away and said, "Lilith used a type of crow to contact headquarters. I think it’s a special item requiring blood to use. She already informed headquarters that you caught the murderer."

Wu Heng had long suspected that Lilith used some tool to contact headquarters.

After all, in previous instances, Lilith had swiftly received information from headquarters.

This time, Glenda saw it and confirmed it was a crow-like special item.

But all special items come at a cost, and it certainly wasn’t as convenient as his phone.

"What’s headquarters’ attitude?" Wu Heng asked.

"Headquarters said the Holy Court also got the news and is very angry about the matter. They told her to keep an eye on you and not let you run around." Glenda said with a smile.

Bella, standing nearby, also smiled, "Headquarters knows wherever you go, trouble follows."

"Great, another stereotype." Wu Heng sat down in front of the sofa and continued asking, "What’s Lilith doing now?"

"She’s at the entertainment center with Xiao Xiao." Glenda said.

Bella then asked, "What’s your plan for that ghost?"

Wu Heng thought for a moment, "I plan to have a good chat with her, to learn some past details."

"She should know a few things." Bella said.

Glenda then said, "You talk; give us the doll. We’ll go downstairs for a walk."

Wu Heng took out the doll, and the two ghosts completed the possession. After confirming that he did not need their help, they went downstairs together.

...

He poured himself a cup of tea.

Then took out the Demon Soul Pot and released the Dead Bones Cage to surround the Demon Soul Pot.

The pot lid opened, and a woman-shaped ghost spiraled out like smoke.

The ghost looked around and then glared at him fiercely, "Are you going to hand me over to the association?"

Wu Heng sat opposite, took a sip of his tea, "The matter is resolved, there’s no need to hand you over to the association."

The ghost’s eyes squinted, "Trying to deceive me?"

"The Wenshi has already proved my innocence, so there’s no need to hand you over." Wu Heng said plainly.

"Hypocrite!" The ghost’s form fluctuated, "Did you release me to humiliate me?"

"Quite the opposite." Wu Heng put down the cup, "I killed the commander you mentioned, and you framed me once, so we’re even. How about that?"

The ghost looked surprised, closely staring at him, as if trying to determine if he was playing her.

After a long while, she said, "You’re going to let me go."

"Not exactly."

The ghost immediately became angry, "You’re playing me!"

Wu Heng said, "This is Gold and Silver Island. What if I let you out and you start killing people again? And how long can your soul’s form last?"

The ghost angrily said, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Wu Heng, leaning on his knees and looking at the ghost, said, "Just a casual chat. How did you meet that man?"

"Are you really curious about me?" The ghost suddenly calmed down, coiling half a circle in the Bone Prison.

"Indeed, a bit curious." Wu Heng looked at her, "You can choose not to tell if it’s a secret."

Wu Heng’s words surprisingly made the ghost less resistant, "There’s nothing to hide. They were a group of tomb robbers. Eventually, only he was left."

Tomb robbers?

Wu Heng’s mind instantly recalled the tomb robbers who looted the ghost ship.

At that time, they found a dwarf’s body on the ghost ship. After the Wenshi, it mentioned the tomb robbers finding a clue about a princess.

The next step was to rob the princess’s tomb.

So, this lady before him was dug out from that tomb.

But this time, unlike the ghost ship’s luck, the princess directly became a ghost, with a high level at that.

She killed the rest, leaving only one alive.

"What expression is that?" The ghost asked back.

Wu Heng explained, "There was a ghost ship in the Emerald Sea before, a burial at sea. A group of tomb robbers looted it and found the location of the princess’s tomb, continuing their robbery."

The ghost’s expression froze, "You mean, they found my clues in another tomb? Whose tomb?"

"I don’t know whose tomb, but there was a recorded stele saying you bewitched the king. Ministers beheaded you, and he escorted your body back home." Wu Heng recalled.

"Shut up!" The ghost suddenly screamed and dived back into the Demon Soul Pot.

Wu Heng scratched his face and spoke to the Demon Soul Pot, "Still want to chat? If not, I’m going to sleep."

The Demon Soul Pot did not respond. He put the lid on and stored it in the Space Ring.

...

In the bedroom.

After taking a bath, Wu Heng lay on the bed.

After two knocks, the door opened, and his four maids, plus Philippa in pajamas, walked in.

They stood in a row horizontally.

Philippa said, "Shanaela, today, you are ours."

Mini also smiled, "Master, it’s been a long time since we disciplined the little fox."

Andre Willow gave her a glance, "We’ll teach you, disobedient bunny, first."

Wu Heng waved and smiled, "Come on."

"Master~!"

The maids coquettishly called, climbing onto the bed from both ends and sides, falling into his arms.

...

The next day, in the morning.

After breakfast, Mini walked in from outside.

Her hand held a letter.

"Master, the association sent this."

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow, took the letter, and felt something inside.

Opening the envelope and pouring it into his palm, a letter and a space ring fell out.

A space ring?

He unfolded the letter and glanced at it, raising an eyebrow.

A reply from the Hongwen Alliance Leader’s assistant.

And inside the space ring were the materials he needed.

The materials to build a database!
