The Mightiest Little Master of Metaphysics-Chapter 22 The Legendary 49 Matches

An old man stepped forward, smiling warmly, "The famous 'Little Heavenly Girl' is here."

Yun Ying blushed, humbly said, "Master Fang, please don't tease me."

"Not teasing at all, who in Hai City hasn't heard of the 'Little Heavenly Girl'?" Another person, Daoist Chang, holding a horsetail whisk, walked over and said.

At this time, Officer Liu came over, "Everyone, follow me, the body has been brought over."

Entering the inner room, a bone-chilling cold greeted them, and before their eyes lay a bloody corpse, still dressed, without any treatment.

Everyone stepped forward together, observing carefully, and that's when the differences in individual cultivation became apparent.

Some were forming seals, some chanting mantras, others drawing talismans.

A few minutes later, Yun Ying spoke first, "There are many wounds on his body, especially his legs and arms, the bite marks don't look like those of a beast or a human, more like a ghost."

Another old man stroked his beard, agreeing, "Miss Yun is right, an Evil Ghost has inverted serrated teeth, a large gaping mouth, matching these bite marks exactly."

Another person added, "Moreover, there is a dense presence of Evil Qi and resentful energy on the deceased, clearly an Evil Ghost seeking revenge, not an ordinary murder."

"Ordinary homicide cases wouldn't be sent to the 49 Bureau."

...

Everyone expressed their opinions, then looked at each other.

"Master Fang, will you take on this case?" someone asked.

White-bearded Master Fang waved his hand, "Can't do it, I'm getting old, need to retire. Since Miss Yun is here, why not let her take this case?"

"That's right, we're all getting on in years, should enjoy our retirement, give the opportunity to the young ones."

"Yes, yes, this case clearly involves many Evil Ghosts, I don't have the stamina for it anyway."

...

Hearing this, Yun Ying confidently stepped forward, "The Yun Family has been a mystical family for five generations, my grandfather is not in good health, retired at fifty, keeping away from worldly affairs. If the Yun Family has to step up, it has to be me."

At this time, that officer also came over and asked, "Miss Yun Ying, do you mean you're willing to assist the 49 Bureau in solving the case?"

"Of course, if all the seniors are inconvenienced, Yun Ying is willing to take on the challenge."

"Alright, please follow me."

"Here's the deceased's information, his name was Li Mingshen, male, 25 years old, lived alone, died around midnight last night... please take a look."

By the time Yun Ying returned home, it was already evening, and she felt a bit tired after spending the afternoon reviewing files at the 49 Bureau.

Those old geezers of the Xuan Sect had learned to slack off, seeing this case was tricky, they backed off and didn't want to take it.

But not taking it means no one will compete with her for it.

Just as she stepped into the yard, she heard Yun Qi's laughter.

The child's laughter was sweet and crisp, with a milk-like tone, like the murmur of a stream in the forest.

However, Yun Ying found it particularly jarring, turned a corner, and sure enough, saw Yun Qi on a swing, the Old Master pushing her from behind.

She strode forward, smiling, "Qi, how can you be so inconsiderate? Grandpa is old, what if he hurts his back?"

Yun Qi: ...

If this sister would just cause herself less trouble, she could live very comfortably.

Someone like her wouldn't waste energy on people she dislikes.

Why bother, looking for trouble?

Before Yun Qi could say anything, the Old Master said, "No problem, I'm not that old yet, besides, how much does Qi weigh anyway."

Yun Ying felt envious, squeezing the file in her hand, she remembered the argument at the hospital yesterday, and deliberately tried to score a point, "Grandpa, I went to the 49 Bureau this afternoon."

"Oh? What did you go there for?"

The 49 Bureau is a unique entity in the law enforcement system, directly under the President's Mansion, with no local department having the authority to interfere, but it's never publicly acknowledged. Because it mainly handles cases beyond normal perception, strange and bizarre events.

Many big shots in the Xuan Sect have been invited as consultants.

Therefore, being able to assist the 49 Bureau in solving cases is also an important way to establish one's position in the Xuan Sect.
