Ruan Dong’s phone rang. He clicked on it.

Then, he said to Yu Su with an ugly expression, “The remaining three team members continued to investigate and realized that the two suspects are dead.” Understanding flashed across Yu Su’s eyes.

With the ruthlessness of the person behind this, he must have hoped that the two of them would shut up forever, so there was no risk of revealing his identity.

However, it was unlikely that he would kill two people just like that.

He must have covered it up.

Yu Su asked, “What’s the reason for their deaths?”

Ruan Dong’s eyes were deep as he said slowly, “On the way back to Chinatown, the three of them found the corpses of two people. The two of them had talismans stuck to their bodies and didn’t seem to have any external injuries. The team members brought them back to the laboratory. In the end, the laboratory said that the two of them had a battle of internal strength and died from exhaustion, so there were no wounds on their bodies.”

Yu Su frowned. “Did the people from the laboratory invite Metaphysics Masters to take a look?”

Ruan Dong continued, “Yes, they said the same thing.”

Both of their faces were filled with deep suspicion.

These two suspects were on the run. Why would they fight among themselves instead of seizing the opportunity to escape?

Most importantly, as metaphysical masters, how could they die from exhaustion from battling each other?

Yu Su smiled mockingly. “Looks like the laboratory is trying to cover up something!”

Ruan Dong had the same suspicion and sighed.

The Inspection Department had always been under the jurisdiction of the Second Department, so they had a good relationship with the Daoist Association. It was very likely that they would perjure themselves.

This was also the reason why he wanted to reorganize the Metaphysics Management Office.

Ruan Dong said helplessly, “I originally wanted to ask you to take a look at the corpses and see if you can find any more results, but unfortunately, the corpses are no longer there.”

Yu Su frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”

The bodies were destroyed?

Ruan Dong unlocked his phone and opened a video for Yu Su to see.

In the video, the two of them were lying straight down, their eyes wide with surprise.

Then, the staff took off the talismans on the two of them one by one. After taking off the last one, the skin on their bodies instantly rotted.

It was very fast. In just a few seconds, their bodies turned into a puddle of blood and flesh.

After reading it, Yu Su said with certainty, “These two didn’t die from exhaustion of their magic power. Instead, they took the backlash for others and rotted to death.”

a€oeAs for those talismans, they are used to delay the backlash. After the talismans are torn off, the backlash will immediately take effect.a€^

The person behind this was indeed ruthless.

He controlled the two of them and made them cast a curse on the two captains. The consequences of the backlash naturally had to be borne by the two of them.

This was killing many birds with one stone, and there was no evidence.

At this moment, Yu Su suddenly understood why that person wanted to use He Wan, Yu Miao, and other mediums to absorb the luck of others.

If he did not use the two of them, the backlash would land on the person behind all these.

This was the weakness of that person.

Yu Su looked at him and asked, “Did they find any important information?”

Ruan Dong nodded. “At that time, after He Jun and the others caught the suspect, they called me to report. They said that they had made a huge discovery and it was inconvenient to talk over the phone. However, they didn’t expect to encounter a mishap on the way back.”

Yu Su’s eyes were filled with deep thought as she asked, “Have you found out the identities of these two suspects?”

Ruan Dong shook his head helplessly. “I did. It was recorded in a document, but after the two of them were attacked, the document was also lost. I can’t trace their identities anymore.”

In that case, the case fell into a deadlock again.

All the clues were cut off.

With a look of understanding on her face, Yu Su nodded and said, “Then let’s wait for Captain He and Captain Leng to wake up. When they wake up, everything will be clear.”

They had to be more careful when investigating cases in the future.

The enemy was in the dark, the staff of the management department were in the light, and there were some traitors in the management department. This made it even more difficult.

Ruan Dong nodded. “That’s all for today. I’ll contact you if there’s any new information.”

He realized that Yu Su was not an ordinary metaphysical master. He could not just define her as a metaphysical master. She might be the key to catching those people..
