Gravekeeper

It was like the evening of September 2.

Luocheng Inspectorate, Criminal Division.

Even though it was pitch black, it was still very lively here.

Captain Wang looked tired, not only because of the endless cases in Luocheng recently, but also because of the woman next to him who couldn't be scolded.

"Liu, you were attacked yesterday, so don't follow the investigation. Go back and have a rest. I will inform you as soon as there is any progress!"

Liu Lian ignored Captain Wang's kindness:

"Captain Wang, what's going on between the director and the higher-ups?"

Captain Wang was obviously a little confused when he mentioned this.

Last night, such a big thing happened, and the most important thing was that after this woman woke up from the hospital, she didn't have any injuries, but she said those weird words.

What bloody head lanterns, what Chujiang Wang.

A lot of mess, those who don't know would think she was possessed by evil spirits.

The most important thing is that after he reported the matter, and even the director followed suit, there was no response from the higher-ups.

Such a large case in which so many people died must be reported to the higher-ups.

However, after the report was submitted, there was no reprimand, only one instruction:

"An expert in this field will come from the imperial capital tomorrow to assist Luocheng in solving the human head lantern and other cases in Luocheng. Therefore, the main target of this department has become that Huang Hong. This morning, two bodies of Rao were found on the edge of the city.

And the vehicle belonging to the two bodies was on the roadside. According to the dashcam and some surveillance cameras, Huang Hong should have pretended to stop the car, got in the car, and killed the two.

But the key to the problem is that in the surveillance cameras, No one has seen her walking on the road. It seems that she flew over from above or went underground..."

Liu Lian frowned and was about to say something, but outside the department office, a panicked sound of footsteps came quickly, and a figure rushed to open the door. Before many inspectors in the department frowned, the person looked at Captain Wang excitedly:

"Captain Wang, Huang Hong...Huang Hong has been caught!"

"What? Where was she caught? What's going on?"

The words attracted everyone's attention, including Captain Wang and Liu Lian.

The latter stood up and asked anxiously.

The person glanced at Captain Wang and said:

"It was found near the outskirts of the city. Huang Hong's condition is extremely abnormal. Her leg bones are broken and seriously injured. Most importantly, her two eyeballs were dug out, and there seemed to be traces of fighting with others..."

Liu Lian didn't think about it and ran out quickly.

"Liu, what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to see Chu Qing, he might be in danger! Captain Wang, you guys interrogate Huang Hong first, and notify me if there is any situation..."

Captain Wang opened his mouth and looked at Liu Lian who was running away, feeling helpless, with only one thought in his mind:

'Damn, being handsome is good. If that poor boy becomes the son-in-law of the emperor...'

He shook his head, threw these messy thoughts out of his mind, and then hurriedly said:

"Let's go, go see this lunatic who didn't even let his husband and children go..."

...

In the darkness, Chu Qing slowly returned to the outside of Beishan Cemetery with the lantern in her hand.

He didn't know that Huang Hong was caught by the inspector almost as soon as he left.

At this moment, he was walking on the way home, feeling relaxed and comfortable all the way.

And just above his shoulder, it seemed like a huge lump of ice, which was getting more and more piercing.

Chu Qing knew that this was the ghoul being graded.

It was normal for a creature that had never entered the rank to become a ninth-rank creature to have some movement and changes.

Just when Chu Qing opened the door to his house, the gloomy cry that had been silent all the way finally rang out from his shoulder again:

"Gagaga!"

It was like the harsh and unpleasant sound of scratching a blackboard with nails, which made him catch a glimpse of unusual meaning.

Chu Qing almost immediately covered his ears, and his bloodshot eyes stared at the black crow in front of him.

No!

It's not a black crow!

After Chu Qing gave the black crow a ghost note, its yin and yang lifespans were completely equalized and it began to be promoted.

And the black crow after the promotion seemed to have changed its appearance.

Its body shape was still the same, and it might even be a little smaller than before, at most a circle larger than an ordinary crow.

However, its eyes, which should have been equally dark, turned green at this moment, flickering with a faint light in the dark night.

The feathers that should have been extremely black, now have dark red color. Most importantly, the sharp beak is red as if it has been soaked in blood.

This ghoul is like two different creatures from the black crow before it was promoted.

However, what Chu Qing did not expect was the rule strength of this thing after it was promoted:

[Ghost Crow]

[Grade: Ninth Grade]

[Category: Ghoul]

[Lifespan: 30, Lifespan: 30]

[Death Bell (Rules): The call can "mark" creatures, and the marked creatures are greatly attracted to nearby weirdness! And the position and status of the marked creatures can be sensed at any time, and up to three can be marked at the same time. ]

[Night patrol (ability): The vision in the dark is enhanced, and at the same time, the ability to perceive danger is increased. The flying speed and physical strength are greatly enhanced. ]

[Ghoul (status): Can devour the corpses of creatures and gain some extra lifespan. However, each lifespan and lifespan will be consumed together. ]

[Promotion requirements: unknown]

[Note: Very practical ability, human, you really found such a potential ghoul under the guidance of this uncle! ]

Still ignoring the narcissism and credit-taking of the blood-eyed ghost, Chu Qing's blood-eyed eyes stared at the black crow that had transformed into a crow ghost, and he was very satisfied.

Ghouls rarely have direct and weird killing rules. Most of them are the kind that assist the weird, and their rule abilities are different.

And there is no doubt that the black crow in front of him, the rule of "low tolling of the death knell" and the ability of "night patrol" are quite good among ghouls!

This made him feel very good.

Back in the cemetery, he looked at the time and the pointer just pointed to half.

The smoothness of this trip far exceeded his imagination.

After hanging the head lantern in front of the door again, Chu Qing greeted the faceless ghost who heard the noise and walked into the lounge with Black Crow.

However, he ignored Black Crow again. After throwing it on the counter, he stared at the door with burning eyes.

Sure enough, with the entry of Black Crow, the bloody words on the door seemed to become alive again.

And the most important thing is that with this wriggling, Chu Qing finally felt that an indescribable breath slowly condensed on it. He had a feeling that

Today,

Today!

The bloody weirdness of the death apartment is about to appear!

The weirdness he is most looking forward to is about to condense into shape!

However, before Chu Qing could concentrate and look at the details of the appearance of this thing, the sound of a hurried vehicle engine stopped in front of the door.

Chu Qing frowned slightly. An Ruoxue came so early?

As a result, what he didn't expect was that when the car door closed, in addition to the harsh sound of slapping the big iron door outside the cemetery, there was also Liu Lian's extremely anxious cry:

"Chu Qing, Chu Qing, are you okay?"
