Chapter 1 — All Things Speak

When I was seven years old, I awakened a superpower: I could hear objects talking. Its biggest effect is to help me observe whether the homeroom teacher is secretly looking at the back door or not, or whether the phone is hidden well. Until one day, as usual, when I went down to the breakfast restaurant downstairs to buy dumplings, I suddenly heard the meat grinder next to me screaming: 【Hu huh huh... I'm dirty, why did you put a rotten man's internal organs inside me to grind!】 I looked at the half-eaten meat dumpling in my hand, and immediately vomited on the spot. Then report to the police and complain all at once.

"Hello, I want to report, there is a murderer here!"

I quickly hid in the alley, covered my phone, and whispered to the police.

“The address is number 403, XX alley, XX street, A Cha breakfast restaurant in the east of the city, you guys should quickly go to the scene.”

The voice of a female police officer was slightly hesitant on the other end of the line:

“Okay, you mean there's a murderer in the breakfast restaurant, right?”

I looked at the half dumpling in my hand and nodded heavily. I described in detail the suspicious meat grinder in the restaurant and the strange-smelling meat buns.

"I know, this side will immediately send someone over. Are you safe now? Make sure to protect yourself first, before we arrive, absolutely don't anger the criminals."

I breathed a sigh of relief. Before calling, I had doubts that maybe they wouldn't believe me. Anyway, this way of saying it sounds too unbelievable. The police station is not far from the house. Just three minutes later, I heard the sound of police sirens approaching. The breakfast restaurant was surrounded by police wire, and customers queuing were dispersed. Soon, the surrounding area was filled with aunties, everyone poking their heads in to hear what was going on.

“What's going on?”

“I told you this house sells fake beef!”

I leaned on the edge of the alley, my fingers unconsciously tapping the wall. Hesitating whether or not I should go out and take a look. At that moment, a pair of hands suddenly reached out from behind me and placed them on my shoulders. My back immediately tensed.

“Hello, little girl, you're the one who called the police, right?” A gentle female voice rang out.

I turned around, there was a female police officer in uniform. At this point, I breathed a sigh of relief and gently nodded. The female police officer smiled: "Is it convenient for you to come to the station with us to take a statement? Don't worry, it's just a routine process, it won't take much time." I hesitated for a moment. At this moment, a man's voice suddenly sounded next to him.

"Hua Thu Nguyet, are you done yet? Quickly bring the person who reported the case to the station to coordinate writing the report!"

At the end of the alley, a male police officer with thick eyebrows and big eyes, his face full of impatience walked closer. Hearing that, the female police officer glared at the male police officer: "Ha Van Bach, why are you being so fierce? You're threatening the little girl!" This male police officer named Ha Van Bach shrugged his shoulders and didn't mind. He walked in front of me, stopped and looked me up and down. Can a girl who looks so weak and elegant look believable? Just now, he was still in the station laughing at Hua Thu Nguyet for making a big deal out of something small, but as soon as he burst into the store, he actually smelled a strange smell of blood. This breakfast restaurant really has problems! He frowned: "I... okay, let's go home and continue talking, first you follow us to take a statement." Before getting in the car, Hua Thu Nguyet smiled and reassured me.

"Don't be afraid, Ha Van Bach is just used to being poisonous, he has no bad intentions. The shop owner you told us about, we have already caught him, no need to worry."

Before the interrogation could take place, the shop owner was so scared that he opened his mouth completely. He discovered that his wife was having an affair with another man behind his back, and in anger, he killed and dismembered that man's body. The shop owner learned the tricks from the TV series. He used a meat grinder to grind up the victim's body, then mixed it into dumplings to sell to customers, wanting to make the body disappear silently, without the ghost knowing. I thought there were no loopholes, but after only selling a few dumplings, I was arrested. When taking testimony, I recounted the content of the morning call again. After listening, Ha Van Bach frowned.

“You mean you saw the meat grinder, then immediately called the police?”

I quickly explained: "I also saw bone fragments in the meat grinder."

“The taste of dumplings is also different from usual.”

His eyebrows moved slightly. For some reason, he always felt like something was wrong. Would a normal person directly report to the police because the meat grinder was not clean? I couldn't explain what I heard, so I took out my student card.

"I'm a student at Public Security University. I usually think a bit too much. I won't cause trouble for you guys, right?"

Since awakening this super power at the age of seven. Every time I hear some strange sounds. Solid wooden bed: 【You've been sleeping on me for so many years, can you change it to let me sleep on you next time?】 Refrigerator: 【It's been twenty years! So has anyone ever thought about letting me rest for a bit?】 Sofa: 【Hehe, I'm hiding someone in my belly—】 The cat tease stick left under the flower bed: 【Save my master, she's been taken away by the little fat guy upstairs!】 At first I didn't dare turn off the light, didn't dare to sleep, causing nervous breakdown, I even went to see a doctor.
