CHAPTER 113: CHAPTER 113: MAKE HIM CONFESS EARLY

Huang Xiumin said viciously, "I guess it’s because his confession wasn’t thorough, so that Ghost Infant keeps tormenting him!"

"Xiumin, what age do we live in? Can you be normal?" Lin Wan laughed.

Huang Xiumin rolled her eyes, "Your words are just like Captain Li’s, but quite a few people at the municipal bureau believe it."

Lin Wan shook her head, "There’s no way to disprove these things, but why is Liu Yifan the only one in trouble?"

Lu Zheng blinked and joined in, "Because he’s too wicked?"

Huang Xiumin chuckled from the side, "You’re such a good baby, I’ve seen many worse than him, dear sister."

Lu Zheng asked, "So, what’s the situation with Liu Yifan now?"

"What else? They’re starting the evidence collection work to see if they can uncover other matters."

Lu Zheng squinted, "Isn’t Liu Yifan’s family said to be very influential?"

Huang Xiumin sneered, "He hid it well, but without evidence. Once there’s evidence, especially in a murder case, no matter how influential his family is, it won’t help!"

Lu Zheng laughed, "Can he be sentenced to death?"

"Who knows, it’ll depend on the court."

...

With Huang Xiumin’s visit, Lin Wan naturally couldn’t cook, so they ordered takeout and ate at home.

After lunch, Huang Xiumin took her leave, and Lin Wan immediately jumped up, punching the air.

"Long live the Ghost Infant!"

Lu Zheng, "..."

"I was thinking of taking revenge myself, but before I could, he fell on his own."

"He only confessed to a few minor cases," Lu Zheng reminded.

Lin Wan rolled her beautiful eyes, "You’re underestimating us. We’ve already found a breakthrough; soon it’ll be a downhill push."

"That fierce?"

"Wait and see, since he turned himself in, he shouldn’t think about getting out!"

In the afternoon, because of the news about Liu Yifan, Lin Wan was delighted and had Lu Zheng sit on the couch for two hours again.

Thus, the afternoon’s training plan had to be canceled once more.

...

In the evening, Lu Zheng went out, went home to retrieve a sealed Qi-Seeking Talisman, and activated it.

Previously using the Ghost Child to scare Liu Yifan, and later cursing him, Lu Zheng had long collected a lot of his Qi, just in case.

Then, following the guidance of the Qi-Seeking Talisman, Lu Zheng meandered until he arrived outside a hospital.

Lu Zheng nodded; in the afternoon, Huang Xiumin had said that due to Liu Yifan’s severe disturbance, they suspected excessive mental stress, and he had been transferred to the mental health department of a nearby hospital.

Lu Zheng believed Lin Wan’s words, believing that Li Jinglin and his team had the capability to dig out evidence of Liu Yifan’s crimes.

But Lu Zheng didn’t have the time to wait that long for the investigation, evidence gathering, and then results years later.

He directly frightened him with the Ghost Infant, making him confess his own crimes, and then urged the court to judge swiftly to see what the result would be.

...

If it were just Lu Zheng, he wouldn’t bother with all this trouble; he’d just kill him directly.

But since Lin Wan is a police officer, and this was mainly to avenge his girlfriend, it naturally had to go through the legal process for Liu Yifan to face judgment.

As for afterward, if a confession leads to a lighter sentence...

After procedural justice, of course, it would be up to Lu Zheng’s whim.

"Should I give you a hand, helping you get out of misery, or make the Nightmare Curse accompany you for a lifetime, making life worse than death until you can’t hold on and commit suicide?"

"Don’t rush, I still need to think about it, but you better not sleep tonight."

Lu Zheng leisurely walked to a nearby city park and then took out the Brass Bell.

"Ding-a-ling-a-ling—ding-a-ling-a-ling—"

...

Inside the hospital.

Liu Yifan’s face was pale, and the heavy dark circles under his eyes gave him an eerie look.

He was emaciated, his steps wobbly, his whole body felt limp and powerless, looking as if he had a bone-softening disease.

His current appearance was worlds apart from how he looked on Lin Wan’s birthday. Fortunately, Lu Zheng was using Qi-Seeking to find him, otherwise he might not have recognized this neither-human-nor-ghost creature as the high-spirited rich second-generation on that day.

At this moment, Liu Yifan sat all alone in his hospital room, eyes vacant, expression dull; there was no one beside him, not even other mental patients dared to get close.

Those people weren’t afraid of him but were afraid of the ghost in his dreams.

Hmm, this hospital’s mental health department didn’t have private rooms. The Liu Family wanted to transfer Liu Yifan, but it wasn’t allowed.

Even though he had only been there half a day, Liu Yifan’s story had already spread throughout the hospital’s mental health department, not to mention his roommates in the ward.

Encounters with ghosts at a foreign-owned hotel, plagued due to his myriad evil deeds and heavy corruption aura; initially appearing bodily, then directly entering his dreams.

Of course, everyone wanted to keep their distance from him. What if they got too close to Liu Yifan and the ghost haunting him latched onto themselves?

Thus, Liu Yifan became a despised entity in the hospital. Everyone kept at least a two-meter distance from him.

Liu Yifan cast a glance at them, but was only calculating in his heart.

"Why? Is it really because I didn’t fully confess?"

"But if I confess everything, that’s the death penalty! Am I turning myself in just to die?"

"Damn it, you ghost, how do you know so much? I’ve confessed already! How are you still with me?"

Liu Yifan almost exploded with anger.

He was supposed to be a privileged rich kid, with endless money, games, and women!

Just because of a visit to the Waldorf Hotel, he’s ended up in this neither-human-nor-ghost situation.

During his time abroad, his family communicated with the hotel multiple times, but the hotel refused to acknowledge any fault, not even offering an apology to avoid tarnishing their reputation!

Moreover, after his situation was publicized, the hotel even falsely accused him of bringing the ghost there!

Damn it, if it’s not your fault, is it mine?

So what if they’re foreigners!

Damn, if not for his family’s business in the Lighthouse Country, he’d have burned that hotel down!

"It’s eleven o’clock! Time for bed!"

Sleep, which was a comfort for others, was torture for Liu Yifan.

Lying in bed, Liu Yifan pulled up the blanket, eyes wide open.

He was indeed exhausted but dared not sleep.

Suddenly, a cold breeze swept by, making the surrounding air seem to drop a few degrees.

"Hmm? The room is sealed tight and there’s heating, where did the cold breeze come from?"

Before Liu Yifan could react, his blanket suddenly bulged, and something chilly attached to his body.

Liu Yifan froze, then the quilt on his chest was lifted slightly.

"Con...fess..."

"Ah!!!!!"
