Sleepless all night, Bai Wu was constantly worried that Qian Kefu would suddenly erupt, but fortunately, nothing happened that night.

Early the next morning, Uncle Hu from the bureau’s pharmacy also came over.

Bai Wu originally thought that Qian Kefu should be just like him, worried and unable to sleep all night.Full novel: The Anomaly Bureau — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

But he didn’t expect that the guy wasn’t worried at all and slept very well.

Bai Wu went up to call him and only then woke him up.

Qian Kefu went downstairs bleary-eyed, and as soon as he came down, he saw an old man over sixty with a long beard and eyebrows. His steady gaze revealed two words: professional.

Qian Kefu instantly felt that he was saved, exaggeratingly describing his condition.

Uncle Hu listened carefully, comforted him for a while, and said that it wasn’t a very serious illness.

He also wrote a prescription, instructing him to drink it once a day and not to go out for the next few days.

Qian Kefu nodded repeatedly.

Bai Wu asked someone to get the medicine, and he personally escorted Uncle Hu to the door, then whispered to inquire about Qian Kefu’s situation: “In your opinion, is his current situation dangerous?”

Uncle Hu shook his head: “If it were an ordinary YiShou / Demonic Beast, it would have fully undergone Beast Transformation/ShouHua in less than half a day before exhibiting his current condition.

But you also know how special Chaos is; he can actually maintain this state overnight. Moreover, when I looked at him just now, I discovered that he was actually somewhat relieved.

My suggestion is that during this period, let him move around a bit on his own. He can’t encounter any dangerous situations, nor can he be without any minor emotional fluctuations.”

Bai Wu nodded, “Understood, thank you.”

After seeing Uncle Hu off, Bai Wu went to Qian Kefu’s room. He was no longer worried about his current situation at all, foolishly playing games.

Bai Wu suddenly thought of a saying: “Mentally challenged children have more fun.” He now had a profound understanding of it.

When Qian Kefu saw him, he said, “Bro, come, play together.”

“No, I have to go out later.”

Upon hearing this, Qian Kefu stopped the game in his hands, suddenly serious: “Why do you always have so many things to do? Although I said before that I wouldn’t interfere with your affairs, you’re going out too often now.”

Bai Wu prevaricated, “Something happened at home recently.”

This time, Qian Kefu wasn’t so easily fooled: “Do you think I’m easy to deceive? It’s always the same reason. In these three years, your family has been constantly having problems. Are everyone in your family so weak and sickly?”

“Uh… yes.”

Qian Kefu’s eyebrows rose: “You’re hiding something from me.”

Bai Wu said guiltily, “How could that be?”

Qian Kefu stood up and walked to him.

He was a little shorter than Bai Wu, so he had to look up to see his eyes. If it weren’t for the special circumstances, Bai Wu would have found his appearance a little comical.

“You’re lying,” Qian Kefu said seriously, “You’re in love, aren’t you?”

Bai Wu was tense at first, but his eyes suddenly widened upon hearing this: “Ah!”

“I accidentally saw your contacts, accidentally of course, and there’s a girl named Cheng Yan who calls you often.”

“That’s my sister.”

“One is surnamed Bai, and the other is surnamed Cheng. She’s your sister? Do you think I’m stupid?”

“She really is my sister. She’s my brother’s sister, so isn’t she my sister?”

Qian Kefu waved his hand, looking like he understood: “Alright, I know. Because I haven’t succeeded with Guo Xiaoyong, you’re afraid I’ll be stimulated. It’s okay, it’s okay, I’m not that kind of person.”

Just as Bai Wu was about to explain, his phone rang. He took it out in confusion, and the phone showed that it was Cheng Yan calling.

He looked up and saw Qian Kefu’s somewhat sour eyes.

Qian Kefu tried to put on a nonchalant look: “Go, go. I wish you happiness.”

Bai Wu didn’t bother to explain, only said that he would be back later, told him to remember to take his medicine, and then walked out.

As soon as he answered the phone, he heard Cheng Yan’s excited voice: “Boss, come to the bureau quickly! There’s news about that woman!”

…

An hour later, Bai Wu, Cheng Yan, and Feng Zhiyue were all gathered in the office.

Cheng Miao was the last to enter, holding several folders in her hand. She distributed the folders one by one.

“This is the information faxed over by the investigation department this morning. Inside is relevant information about that woman.”

Cheng Yan wasn’t interested in opening the folder at all: “Bro, just tell me directly, I’m too lazy to read.”

Although Cheng Miao was a little helpless, she still said, “Alright. That woman is called Liu Yuqing. Her family used to be in the silk business and was considered wealthy. But she was born with a serious illness.

Her parents heard that the abbot of a temple had excellent medical skills, so they sent her to the temple to recuperate. She stayed there for two years, but during that time, something suddenly happened.”

Cheng Yan curiously leaned over upon hearing this: “What happened?”

“Once, she went down the mountain with several fellow disciples and suddenly encountered wild beasts. Her fellow disciples were all bitten alive to protect her. Only she survived.”

Cheng Yan listened in shock: “That’s too tragic, right, Boss? Boss?”

Bai Wu ignored her words and flipped through the information on his own. Why did this experience look so familiar?

Because of this incident, Liu Yuqing’s parents became suspicious of the temple’s safety and took her back. But the amazing thing was that after returning, Liu Yuqing’s condition improved.

A year later, the same thing happened again. That was in the winter of that year. She and her parents were on their way back to their hometown in a car. One night, it suddenly started snowing heavily, and they got lost.

The next day, people only found her hiding in the back seat of the car, and a pile of unformed blood clots.

The police asked her about the situation that night. She was too traumatized at the time and kept repeating that a monster that made infant sounds had killed her parents.

This incident was also determined by the police to be a case of wild beasts killing people.

After that, she inherited her parents’ inheritance, but because she was too young at the time, the company didn’t give it to her, and she only inherited her parents’ savings.

After that, she studied at a famous university in the city.”

“She graduated from university last year,” Cheng Miao said, “At that point, her clues ended. But as you all know, she later became a robber and threatened Bai Wu.”

After Cheng Miao finished speaking, Bai Wu suddenly stood up and turned to walk out.

Everyone was surprised and stood up: “Boss!”

“Bai Wu!”

“Bro!”

Bai Wu went downstairs and entered the nearest bookstore. The manga was placed in the most conspicuous place.

He bought every volume of the manga, found a chair in the bookstore, and sat down, flipping through the contents one by one.

The more he read, the clearer his thoughts became.

It matched up, it all matched up.

It’s her.
