Chapter 12: The breakthrough in an old case is a female Taoist priest
Their attention was not on the discounts on fortune-telling, but on the fact that the gossipy bastard master of the temple actually married, had children, and eloped with his sister-in-law.
Such novel gossip, shouldn't they find out more about it?
When I talk about it with my friends in the future, they definitely won’t know about it.
"Pretty girl, what you said is true, right?"
"The Taoist temple master also gets married, right?"
"You can't judge a person by his appearance, it turns out that Taoist priests are so immoral!"
The housewives kept asking questions.
The Taoists who were setting up stalls next to Ye Zhiyu all glared at Ye Zhiyu angrily.
Everyone makes money by fortune-telling, why does she want to tarnish the reputation of Taoist priests! ? Can't she change her profession! ?
The most important thing is that she had just been shouting here with her voice before, but now, she actually came here with a loudspeaker to shout. Was she trying to bully them into being honest?
The angry gazes from all directions did not make Ye Zhiyu feel guilty. She calmly greeted the housewives gathered around her, "Is there any fortune teller? The original price was five hundred, but now it only costs one hundred. You are not allowed to refuse the money~"
Ye Zhiyu acted as if she wouldn't gossip if they didn't tell fortunes.
Accurately grasp the curiosity of housewives.
The housewives looked at each other, all a little hesitant.
It’s true that they want to hear gossip, but they don’t want to pay to hear it. After hesitating for a while, they don’t want to leave anymore and want to wait for others to pay.
Then, the landlady who stood in front of the crowd and had a little spare money took out a hundred yuan from her pocket and said, "Pretty girl, you said you can't refuse the money."
"Of course, Auntie, give me the horoscope."
Ye Zhiyu collected money very quickly.
The other party was quite straightforward. After she gave Ye Zhiyu her horoscope, Ye Zhiyu raised his eyes and looked at her carefully.
"Auntie has two daughters and one son. The eldest daughter died at birth. The second daughter is now doing trace examination at a police station near Tsim Sha Tsui. The youngest son is studying finance at Jiang University."
When talking about the children in the family, except for Ye Zhiyu who showed sadness on her face when she was talking about her eldest daughter who died young, the aunt straightened her chest and had a bit of pride on her face when she talked about her two later children.
"Beautiful girl, do you know my daughter?" Auntie didn't think Ye Zhiyu was right, she just thought that Ye Zhiyu might know her daughter.
Auntie felt that the hundred dollars would return to her sooner or later.
Unfortunately, there is no reason to take the money out of Ye Zhiyu's hands.
"Auntie's husband is a taxi driver. He came home exhausted at 3 a.m. yesterday..."
"you're right!"
Last night, Auntie's daughter did not come home, but Ye Zhiyu could accurately tell what time her husband would come home...
Auntie stood up straight, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Ye Zhiyu changed a lot. She was sure that she didn't know Ye Zhiyu.
Moreover, the other party was a girl from mainland China. Her daughter was very busy at the police station. How could she have time to meet a girl from mainland China who was telling fortunes under the overpass?
Could it be that this girl from mainland China is really good at what she does?
Auntie was suspicious and guessed Ye Zhiyu's ability.
"Go back and ask Uncle to go to the police station. The customer Uncle picked up late last night was a serial killer. There were traces on Uncle's taxi. He will try to silence Uncle."
"Beautiful girl! I am here to support you with good intentions, but are you cursing my husband to death by saying this?" When Auntie heard Ye Zhiyu ask her husband to go to the police station and said that a serial killer wanted to kill her husband, she immediately became unhappy.
People who have their fortunes told like to hear good things, and they don’t like to hear bad things, especially unlucky words that may cause death.
Auntie looked at Ye Zhiyu with an unfriendly look.
"Human lives matter!"
"Yes, Arong, you should ask your husband to go to the police station."
The other housewives were all persuading Aunt Rong to believe it rather than not.
Aunt Rong's face still looked bad, and she was very regretful now.
Seeing that Aunt Rong didn't believe it, Ye Zhiyu sighed slightly. She didn't want to say this to Aunt Rong, but if she didn't go earlier, her husband's life would really be in danger.
"Aunt, let's make a bet. If there is no blood in the trunk of Uncle's taxi, I will return the hundred dollars to you. How about that?"
Ye Zhiyu's serious expression made Aunt Rong look hesitant.
She also thought that even if Ye Zhiyu wanted to cheat her out of money, he wouldn't use such a trick that would expose her if she went to the police station.
She hesitated, "But...he's not home now."
Aunt Rong also started to get anxious, wondering if something really was going to happen.
"Please, make way! Make way!"
Behind the housewives, a cheerful girl's voice was heard.
Everyone turned their heads and subconsciously stepped aside to let the girl in.
Soon, a woman in a green police uniform and a black police hat squeezed out of the crowd.
She straightened her police hat and walked up to the fortune teller, Aunt Rong, "Mommy, why are you here? Where's my daddy?"
The person who came was Aunt Rong's daughter who worked at the police station.
Seeing the other party, Ye Zhiyu raised his eyebrows, said nothing, and waited for the other party to continue speaking.
Perhaps it was because Ye Zhiyu's gaze was too direct that the female police officer noticed Ye Zhiyu. She stared at him for a while, and then saw the cardboard sign that Ye Zhiyu had placed next to her. She then remembered that the person in front of her was the most discussed task in their police station in the past two days. "Is it you?"
"Madame knows me?"
"Ms. Ye, a caring citizen."
Aunt Rong tugged at the policewoman's sleeve, "Do you know each other?"
The policewoman shook her head and said, "I only heard about her at the police station and found that she helped our station solve two old cases." She didn't really know her.
The reason why she knew what Ye Zhiyu looked like was because a colleague was holding the front page of yesterday's newspaper and laughing, and teasing Zhou Shazhan about the girl who appeared on the front page. She then learned that the breakthrough in the two old cases was actually a "female Taoist priest".
The aunt looked at the policewoman, then at Ye Zhiyu, and then leaned over and whispered in the policewoman's ear.
"She said there was a serial murder case last night and took your dad's car."
Hearing this, surprise flashed in the policewoman's eyes, and she looked at Ye Zhiyu with a sharper look.
The reason she came back to find her father was because the criminal investigation team of the West Kowloon Headquarters found a headless female corpse hidden in a suitcase in the suburbs.
And that suitcase happened to have appeared in her father's car.
She came back because of a notice from the police station, so how did the woman in front of her know about it?
Could it be that she really calculated it as she said?
"Madam, if you want to find your dad, you can contact the Mayoudi Police Station. Maybe there will be some news."
Meeting the policewoman's gaze, Ye Zhiyu stared at her for a long time before slowly speaking.
At first, Ye Zhiyu didn't want to say anything more.
However, the moment the policewoman appeared in front of her, Aunt Rong's expression changed.
If she didn't intervene, Aunt Rong's husband would be targeted and killed by a serial killer this afternoon.
She had accepted money from Aunt Rong, so she naturally couldn't just sit back and watch and allow the uncle to be killed.
