After a long time, he finished speaking.
It was basically consistent with what he had said before... Lin Yuexiang thought to himself, and then opened his mouth:
"Thank you for your cooperation. If possible, I have one last request."
"Go ahead." Zhu Yaoguo drank up the cold tea.
Lin Yuexiang smiled. "I think it's best if you demonstrate your ability. Don't worry, we will keep it confidential."
Zhu Yaoguo was not surprised by this request. He readily agreed and then sat aside and closed his eyes.
At the same time, Lin Yuexiang also focused his "biological induction" ability.
After two breaths, from the perspective of Lin Yuexiang's "biological field", a "heat mass" emerged from Zhu Yaoguo's body. Then, the color of his body became imperceptibly dimmer, as if it had become a little colder.
This change was something Lin Yuexiang saw for the first time, but for some reason, he always felt a sense of familiarity.
He tried to remember the source of this familiar feeling, but to no avail. No matter how hard he tried to recall, the answer seemed reluctant to "leave home", even though the "door" was right in front of him.
Just then, Lei Ting beside him said something in a very low voice:
"I wonder what the captain saw..."
In normal circumstances, it would be extremely difficult to hear this voice with the naked ear. But under the "biological induction", Lin Yuexiang was extremely sensitive to the sounds around him, allowing him to hear the voice fairly clearly.
This sentence made Lin Yuexiang divert a little of his attention to Lei Ting, and his "biological induction" covered Lei Ting as well.
In an instant, Lin Yuexiang's heart trembled, and he was stunned. The answer that had been reluctant to "leave home" was "kicked out of the house".
It was last night, ten seconds before the victim Wang Yue was killed.
At that time, Lin Yuexiang could feel that the man, Wang Yue, was a bit strange, but he couldn't put his finger on it. And he rushed out suddenly because the latter suddenly climbed over the fence.
But there was a key point that he didn't notice at that time. It was only when he saw the difference between Zhu Yaoguo and Lei Ting that he remembered it.
Before and after Wang Yue climbed over the fence, his body seemed to suddenly turn cold, but it became hot again in an instant.
Now that it was known that Zhu Yaoguo's ability was astral projection, when he used this ability and his soul left his body, in the "biological induction", his physical body would become a little "colder".
For a normal person with their soul still in their body, their physical body was still "hot".
A conjecture emerged in his mind.
"Sir, please take back your ability first." Lin Yuexiang began the final verification of his conjecture.
Although Zhu Yaoguo didn't understand why the other party asked him to use his ability first and then take it back, he still followed the request.
When the soul returned to the body, in the "biological induction", his physical body became hot again.
Sure enough... The conjecture was confirmed, and the doubt was resolved. Lin Yuexiang suddenly stood up and said:
"Sorry, Mr. Zhu. We have other things to attend to, so we'll be leaving now. I've already paid for the tea. You can either leave directly or stay here and finish the tea." After saying that, without waiting for Zhu Yaoguo to react, Lin Yuexiang called Lei Ting and Liu Wang and left the private room named "Bamboo".
"Captain? What's going on?" Lei Ting asked in the corridor of the teahouse.
Lin Yuexiang didn't answer immediately. It was not until the three of them sat in the car that he took a deep breath. There was no obvious emotion on his face, but his tone was filled with barely concealed joy:
"The case has a breakthrough."
"A breakthrough?" Liu Wang became excited, but then he asked a question:
"What kind of breakthrough? The old man's ability of 'astral projection'? I didn't see anything special just now."
"Captain, do you suspect that he can also make others 'astral project'?" Lei Ting guessed.
"Not entirely." Lin Yuexiang shook his head and said:
"However, through Mr. Zhu's ability demonstration, I remembered a detail that I had ignored before. Now that I've remembered this detail and combined it with his performance when using the ability, I'm sure that before the deceased jumped off the building, his soul left his body and then returned.
"I now suspect that the soul that left the deceased's body earlier was the deceased's own soul, and the soul that entered later belonged to someone else."
Although what their captain said was rather mysterious and he didn't explain what the details and performance were at all, making the two of them completely confused. However, Lei Ting roughly understood something from the latter part of the words.
"Captain, are you saying that before Wang Yue jumped off the building, his soul had already been taken away, and then a strange soul entered his body and controlled it to commit suicide by jumping off the building?"
"That's right!" Lin Yuexiang nodded affirmatively and added:
"If this idea is correct, then our investigation direction might have been wrong from the beginning. That woman in the red dress might not be a psychic superpower user, but a soul-based superpower user! And she has an ability similar to Mr. Zhu's 'astral projection'! Then she made the deceased'suicide' using the above action pattern! What I suffered was not a psychic attack, but an attack on the soul level!
"However, in this case, the sudden 'enlightenment' of the deceased earlier, and the mist on her face in the surveillance and Liu Wang's projection are difficult to explain. If there is another psychic superpower user beside the woman in the red dress, they could have made the deceased truly commit suicide, and there was no need to make it so complicated. Unless the 'enlightenment' of the deceased was indeed him acting, and the mist was caused by some supernatural thing..."
Just as Lin Yuexiang was having a brainstorm, Liu Wang weakly raised his hand:
"Um... Can I say something?"
"Go ahead." Lin Yuexiang didn't blame Liu Wang for interrupting inappropriately.
Liu Wang turned his head to look out of the car window and said, "Are we just leaving like this? Don't we need to send the old man back? He doesn't look like he has money for a taxi..."
Reminded by Liu Wang's words, Lin Yuexiang slapped his forehead, regretting that he had forgotten such a basic thing. He quickly got out of the car and went back to the teahouse to bring Zhu Yaoguo back to the car, and he kept apologizing during this process.
Meanwhile, in another place...
At the entrance of Zhu Yaoguo's "Convenience Supermarket", the tricolor cat with a Taiji pattern on its face, "Soul Devourer", was crouching there, seemingly waiting for someone.
"Yo, there you are, little cat. I've been looking for you everywhere..." A sweet but obviously malicious voice came from one side of the road, making the fur on the back of "Soul Devourer" stand on end.
"Meow!" "Soul Devourer" let out a sharp cry, quickly turned around, and assumed a fighting stance.
The next second, a woman wearing a bright red dress, high-heeled shoes of the same color, with a waterfall of black hair, exquisite facial features, and an extremely beautiful appearance walked over from the southwest direction of the road, with a smile on her face.
"This time, I'm well-prepared for the fight, and I can have a good fight with you, little cat. Don't worry, I've asked some 'little helpers' to keep an eye on this area. There won't be any clueless passers-by suddenly showing up to interfere with our fight."
