Chapter 11: Blood Cross

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

A red Rolls-Royce Wraith was speeding along the highway.

Chen Yan was sitting in the passenger seat like a good boy.

When he was in the Red Moon, he knew that Shen Yunyi was no ordinary person, but he did not expect her to be so extraordinary.

He had never sat in a luxury car worth millions in both lifetimes.

“Mr. Chen, have you considered my suggestion?” Shen Yunyi had just introduced herself and told him about how she wanted Chen Yan to pretend to be her boyfriend.

Now, she was waiting for Chen Yan’s reply.

To be honest, when Chen Yan knew that Shen Yunyi had kidnapped him with this purpose in mind, he was actually a little disappointed.

However, as long as she did not really desire his body, everything was fine.

A beautiful woman driving a car had an extreme attraction, let alone a top-grade female driver driving a Wraith.

Chen Yan looked at Shen Yunyi. “Miss Shen, I have thought about it carefully. We… Are not suited for each other!”

Hm?

Shen Yunyi looked at Chen Yan in surprise. “Mr. Chen, I think you have a little misunderstanding.”

“And what’s that?”

“Didn’t you ask for a house and a car? Sure, I can give you all that for you to pretend to be my boyfriend.”

“But, I don’t want it anymore!”

“Mr. Chen, you have misunderstood again,” Shen Yunyi smoothed her long hair by her ear and turned her head, her beautiful big eyes glanced at Chen Yan from head to toe, “There might be something wrong with the tone of my voice just now, which made you think that I was asking for your opinion. You’ve already flirted with me, yet you think you can run?”

Chen Yan, “…”

Did he flirt with her? Why didn’t he have any impression of that?!

“But, Miss Shen, you’re already 27, and I’m only 22!” Chen Yan planned to put up a fight till the end, “Don’t you think that we’re not a match? I understand that you want to find a younger man, but you have to understand that I also want to find someone younger than me.”

Chen Yan looked at Shen Yunyi, “I want the kind of young lady who’s sweet, innocent, sexy, and beautiful. Of course, Miss, you’re also very beautiful, but you’re a little too old for me…”

Shen Yunyi suddenly had the urge to hit someone. She couldn’t accept this excuse!

It would be fine if he was just saying that she was old, but where were his eyes looking?

Men are all liars. Even if he said so much, isn’t he still full of lust?

“Do you want them?”

“Yes!”

Hahahahaha.

Shen Yunyi laughed wantonly and her entire body shook with her laughter, the movements of her curves soul-stirring.

Chen Yan subconsciously grabbed the seatbelt and forced his gaze away from the “scenery” on the left. He looked ahead and said, “Miss, we’re on Huanhai Road, so please pay attention to your driving. You’re not thinking of washing your car with the sea, are you?”

What could he do?

Women were not to be casually flirted with, especially those who made one crave after them.

“Miss Shen,” Chen Yan sorted out his thoughts. “If you weren’t joking with me just now, I can agree to be your fake boyfriend and deal with your parents. Of course, I was only joking about the house and the car, but there’s one thing that you have to promise me.”

“What?”

“You also have to promise to be my fake girlfriend and deal with my parents!”

“… Deal!”

After that, the two of them discussed some details.

For example, when did they meet, their family background, work background, hobbies, habits, and so on.

They sat in the warm sea breeze, and next to them was the expensive luxury car.

On the bench on Jingguan Avenue, the two chatted to each other, and they did seem like a couple.

When they separated, the sun was already setting.

“Little boy, remember, come to my house for lunch this Saturday afternoon!”

Looking at the luxury car speeding away, Chen Yan felt a little helpless.

This was the bad thing about “dating” an older woman who had a strong temper. When she was gentle, she would be like a spring breeze. When she was tough, she would call one a cute little boy, and one wouldn’t be able to do anything about it.

Looking at the room upstairs that had lights on, Chen Yan let out a long sigh.

What should he do?

How should he explain this to his mother?

The last time he went on a blind date, he arrested his blind date.

This time, not only was he late, but halfway through the blind date, he had left her there and ran off with another woman…

Hm? Wait a minute!

Shen Yunyi’s figure appeared in Chen Yan’s mind.

“This little boy… Bah, this young master has a girlfriend now, so what’s there to be afraid of?!”

As expected, as soon as he entered the door, Yu Huizhen began to ask all sorts of questions.

“Miss Ling said that she was very satisfied with you and even said that she would invite you on a date next time.”

Huh?

The pretty soldier sailor moon didn’t mention that he was kidnapped by another woman halfway through the blind date?

“Mom, you don’t have to worry about me getting a girlfriend. I’ll give you a surprise in a few days!”

Since he had already got himself a girlfriend, why should he be afraid of his mother?

Although said girlfriend was just a “tool”, it was fine as long as she was handy.

On the other hand, he had to thank Ling Yutong when he had the chance.

There weren’t many good girls who were so sensible.

…

Ring, ring, ring!

The next morning, Chen Yan was woken by the ringing of his phone.

Caller ID: Liu Qingshan.

“Why is Master calling at this time?”

There was such a rule in the search and arrest team that no one would easily contact a person on leave.

As such, once a call was made, it meant that something important had happened.

The call was connected.

“Xiao Chen,” Old Liu sounded a little tired. “I know you’re on leave, but there has been a new case this morning that’s quite troublesome. If you have nothing else to do, come and take a look. It’ll help you accumulate some experience too.”

Chen Yan quickly agreed. He knew that Liu Qingshan was helping him to learn more.

30 minutes later, Chen Yan arrived at Lianhai University by taxi.

The crime scene was in a teaching building of Lianhai University, and the scene had been cordoned.

“Captain Zhang is already inside,” Liu Qingshan brought Chen Yan into the cordoned area, “The scene is extremely strange and tragic. I’ve been a police officer for years, but I’ve only seen a handful of cases like this.”

Chen Yan frowned slightly.

Liu Qingshan was a veteran detective who had been a police officer for twenty years. What kind of case had he not seen?

If he said it was strange and tragic, then it was definitely extraordinary.

The crime scene was in a classroom. When he opened the door, even though Chen Yan had tough nerves, he still felt his stomach churn.

The wall opposite the classroom door was a blackboard.

A complete human skin had been nailed to the blackboard in a form similar to Jesus on the cross.

The skinned body was right below the human skin cross. It was in a kneeling position, making it look like a repentant sinner.

Not only that, from Chen Yan’s viewing angle, the place where the body was located was covered in blood.

Traces of blood that were in an irregularly radioactive pattern extended to many directions within the classroom.

No wonder Liu Qingshan had said that the scene was strange and tragic.

Zhang Yunhu and the others were investigating the scene while the internal-work staff was taking photos.

The two put on shoe covers, and Liu Qingshan began to introduce in a low voice, “The scene was discovered by a third-year student in clinical medicine. There was supposed to be a public lecture on human anatomy in this classroom this morning. The student was the class representative and arrived early to do some preparatory work, but now he’s already a little neurotic and is undergoing psychological counseling. The preliminary investigation shows that this is a male victim. The time of death was around 2:00 a.m. last night. He’s a junior who was majoring in clinical medicine in the school and was supposed to attend class here today. When he was discovered, he was already in this state…”
