Chapter 66: Another Encounter with Zhao Qingxue

“Eh! Fellow Cultivator Tang, what are you doing?”

Taoist Master Chang Qing shouted anxiously.

The police were here to solve crimes. Why in the world would they let unauthorized people enter the crime scene? Was it not obvious that he would run into a brick wall?!

Meanwhile, when the police saw Tang Hao, the expression on their faces changed instantaneously, revealing hints of awkwardness. There were even some who looked vaguely respectful.

A middle-aged policeman who was in the lead hastily walked up to Tang Hao and shook his hand. “Lil Bro Tang, long time no see!”

“Captain Zhou!”

Tang Hao smiled and returned the handshake warmly.

This middle-aged policeman was the newly promoted captain of the criminal police unit, Zhou Bin.

Out of the corner of his eyes, Tang Hao saw a few familiar faces. Amongst the group, there stood the same duo which had handcuffed him in the past. They had the most awkward expressions on their faces, not daring to look Tang Hao in the eye.

The most beautiful policewoman in the unit stood next to them. She was wore a complete police uniform, looking valiant and heroic whilst her figure was still as sexy as always. Despite her allure, her pretty face was as cold as usual. When she noticed Tang Hao looking in her direction, she looked upward and snorted lightly.

Even if he had been wrongly accused the last two times, this fellow was still a lecher to her. She could never forget the time he had groped her breasts. She felt shame surging up inside her whenever she recalled it.

Tang Hao was completely clueless about that and smiled warmly at her.

Zhao Qingxue’s gorgeous eyes widened as she returned him a piercing glare.

Noticing that, Captain Zhou furrowed his eyebrows and said, “Lil Zhao, how could you be so impolite?!”

“Captain, he…” Zhao Qingxue argued hastily.

However, she was too embarrassed to reveal the incident. Therefore, she stomped her feet and huffed, “Forget it, it’s nothing!”

“Captain Zhou, there’s been a misunderstanding between me and Officer Zhao here,” explained Tang Hao.

“Oh, I see!” Said Captain Zhou in realization.

Then, he directed his attention to Tang Hao once more, “Oh, right. Why are you here? Who’s this?” As he spoke, he shifted his gaze to Taoist Master Chang Qing, who was standing behind Tang Hao.

“This attire… Why do you look like a Taoist priest?”

Tang Hao answered, “This is Taoist Master Chang Qing. Actually, both of us… are here for this case too.”

Captain Zhou was surprised to hear that. His gaze sharpened visibly. “What’s going on?”

Tang Hao replied, “Taoist Master Chang Qing has been pursuing the murderer for a long time now. He knows this case like the back of his hand.”

“A long time? What does that mean? This is merely the second murder committed by our suspect. Moreover, he’s a Taoist priest, isn’t he? He’s not police or investigator, so what’s he doing investigating this?”

The expression on Captain Zhou’s face was starting to get suspicious.

Taoist Master Chang Qing walked over and answered, “This murderer has committed a lot of crimes. He uses the same techniques and has traveled to many places before coming to Westridge District, where you’re currently staying.”
