The Beautiful CEO's Personal Mad Doctor

Chapter 133: Chapter 133: Location Locked

”It’s... it’s in my right pocket.”

”Get it out yourself.”

Pan Dong, trembling, took out the key and handed it to Cheng Yuan. Only then did Cheng Yuan snort coldly and tap Pan Dong’s body several times, releasing the invisible hold he had on him.

Pan Dong’s symptoms gradually disappeared. He gave Cheng Yuan a look filled with dread. ’When did this kid use that trick on me? How did I not notice at all?’

Cheng Yuan couldn’t be bothered with what Pan Dong was thinking. He casually handed the key to Wu Mengyao. ”Mengyao, let’s go.”

Wu Mengyao nodded and led Cheng Yuan toward Detention Cell 9.

Pan Dong quickly reported to his older cousin. Soon, the news reached Dai Zhen’s ears.

”Director, Wu Mengyao has the key to Detention Cell 9. Should I intervene?”

”Are there any traces left in Detention Cell 9?”

”It’s been cleaned out.”

”Then let her investigate!”

Pan Guang was still unwilling to let it go.

”Director, Wu Mengyao is too arrogant! She actually used a sneak attack on her own colleague. We can’t let this slide!”

”Pan Guang, do you have any proof of that? I saw it perfectly clearly. Pan Dong walked out of the duty room on his own, and he handed over the key voluntarily.”

Pan Guang: ”...”

=======

CLICK.

Wu Mengyao opened the door to Detention Cell 9.

The inside of Detention Cell 9 was empty. There was only a large, hard-plank bed. The blanket and slippers had been taken away, and even the squat toilet had been scrubbed clean.

The trash can had also been replaced with a new one.

Wu Mengyao’s gaze turned cold. ”They certainly cleaned this place up. Afraid we’d find something, are they!”

Cheng Yuan didn’t respond. He glanced at the camera in the corner. Wu Mengyao instantly understood his meaning, grabbed a small stool from the floor, and smashed it against the camera!

CRACK!

The camera was smashed and started to smoke.

The corner of Cheng Yuan’s mouth twitched. ’When did Mengyao get so fierce?’

”Mengyao, isn’t that destruction of public property?”

”They can take it out of my salary! After Pan Dong’s attitude just now, even if I went to the monitoring room, they wouldn’t have cooperated.”

”That’s true.”

”Let’s start. Where do we begin?”

Cheng Yuan shook the mop in his hand and said calmly, ”They can only clean up what’s visible on the surface. The world isn’t really as we see it. There are many microscopic particles, invisible to the naked eye, but they truly exist.”

Wu Mengyao nodded, only half understanding. ”Then I’ll be counting on you.”

Cheng Yuan nodded. He placed the mop on the hard-plank bed, then began to circulate the Celestial Witch Heart Method. He formed a hand seal and chanted, ”Celestial Witch above, grant me your divine might. Three souls and seven spirits, leave the body and follow my lead. By my life, I guide you to the path home!”

It was the first time Wu Mengyao had seen Cheng Yuan act so strangely mystical, and she struggled to hold back a laugh. But soon, she couldn’t laugh anymore.

Because, as Cheng Yuan chanted, Wu Mengyao suddenly felt a chill wash over her, and all the hairs on her body stood on end.

Then, something even more miraculous happened. The mop suddenly began to tremble slightly, the vibrations growing stronger and stronger.

Wu Mengyao’s heart skipped a beat. Even though there was no one in the room besides her and Cheng Yuan, she felt as if a third pair of eyes was watching her.

Wu Mengyao’s scalp tingled, and a layer of goosebumps broke out across her skin. She spun around and shouted, ”Who’s there?”

Cheng Yuan slowly retracted his power and said in a placating voice, ”Mengyao, don’t panic. It’s just a Residual Soul. I already know the suspect’s location.”

A Residual Soul?

Wu Mengyao frowned deeply. ”Cheng Yuan, you’ve practically destroyed my worldview today. Does this kind of supernatural stuff really exist?”

Cheng Yuan smiled and explained, ”Mengyao, don’t overthink it. This can be explained with science, too. You know quantum mechanics? When a particle here changes, another particle far away also changes along with it. You can think of a Residual Soul as one of those particles. And I... I can see and use them.”

A look of sudden understanding appeared on Wu Mengyao’s face. ”I think I get it. How did you learn to do that? Can you teach me?”

Cheng Yuan gave a wry smile. He himself didn’t even know the origin of his Celestial Witch Inheritance and Double Pupil.

”This isn’t something that can be taught. Some people are just born with special talents and powerful Spiritual Power, allowing them to see things ordinary people can’t.”

Wu Mengyao looked slightly disappointed, but she quickly perked up. ”Why should I learn? From now on, I’ll just come to you when I need help.”

Cheng Yuan quickly waved his hands. ”Mengyao, energy in this world is conserved. The greater the deed, the greater the price I have to pay. If you hadn’t asked me, I wouldn’t have used a method like this so easily.”

Wu Mengyao gave Cheng Yuan a deep look. ’So using this kind of power comes at a great cost to him!’

’But he agreed without a second thought!’

’Does that mean I already hold a certain place in his heart?’

”Then try not to use this kind of power again in the future.”

Cheng Yuan smiled faintly. In truth, for him, it was just a matter of consuming a bit of Life Essence True Essence, which he could cultivate back in two or three days at most.

’The reason Cheng Yuan said this was because he was worried Wu Mengyao would start coming to him for every little thing. If that happened, when would he ever have time to cultivate?’

”Come on, I’ll take you to arrest the suspect.”

”Mm.”

「Meanwhile.」

Pan Guang rushed into the Director’s office.

”Director, Wu Mengyao has some nerve! She actually smashed the camera in Detention Cell 9! I don’t know what she’s up to!”

Dai Zhen frowned. ”What is Wu Mengyao trying to do?”

”I have no idea! She brought a young man with her—the same kid who helped her crack that human trafficking case! That kid is a little strange. I suspect he was behind that time we all got diarrhea. Also, I just asked Pan Dong. He said the kid just touched him, and he suddenly felt cold all over, like his blood had stopped flowing and he lost all his strength.”

Dai Zhen’s pupils contracted slightly. ’Could that kid know some kind of Evil Technique?’

”Did they do anything else unusual?”

”The kid seemed to be carrying a mop.”

”A mop? What kind of mop?”

”It looked like a mop made from strips of cloth, cut from some clothes.”

Clothes??

Dai Zhen’s expression changed slightly.

A few years ago, he had investigated a very bizarre case and learned some things that ordinary people didn’t know. There were people in this world who walked in the shadows.

’Could it be...’

Dai Zhen quickly pulled out his phone, dialed a number, and said in a very serious tone, ”The rabbit has been exposed. Move immediately.”
