Chapter 4 — Reading Fortune Telling Under the Bridge, I Was Arrested by My Ex-Boyfriend and Taken to the Police Station
I looked at the porcelain vase in my hand, feeling like my worldview was being broken little by little. Luc Thoi Xuyen gave me the porcelain vase:
"This is your first mission. Let Luu Le Le appear in front of Trieu Minh, forcing him to admit his crime. We will record the entire process."
I took the medicine bottle, my palms were heavy.
“Can I…can I do it?”
“I can do it.” Luc Thoi Xuyen looked straight into my eyes, his voice full of certainty.
“Because you are not alone.”
That sentence was like a warm current rising throughout my chest. I took a deep breath and nodded.
“Okay, I'll try.”

Luc Thoi Xuyen and I took Luu Le Le back to the interrogation room where Trieu Minh was detained. This time, there were only three of us in the room… no, three people and a ghost. Trieu Minh sat on a chair, his face was haggard, his eyes averted. Seeing me and Luc Thoi Xuyen entering, he clearly became nervous.
"You guys... what else do you want? I've already told you everything!"
Luc Thoi Xuyen didn't say anything, just pulled out the chair and motioned for me to sit down. I opened the porcelain vase, poured out a black pill, and gave it to Luu Le Le who was floating next to me.
“Drink.”
Luu Le Le trembled as she took the pill and swallowed it. The next second, her body began to emit a faint light, and the once faint ghost gradually became clear. Trieu Minh didn't pay attention at first, until he saw Luu Le Le wearing a familiar red dress, slowly walking in front of him.
“Trieu Minh…”
Luu Le Le's voice rang out, light but painful, echoing throughout the silent room. Trieu Minh raised his head, when he saw Luu Le Le's face clearly, his whole body seemed to be struck by lightning, his pupils constricted, and the blood on his face drained away.
“Le… Le Le?!” He was so scared that he fell off the chair, his arms and legs crawled backwards, until his back hit the cold wall.
“There is… a ghost!”
He screamed in horror, his voice was chilling.
“Trieu Minh, why are you slandering me?” Luu Le Le stepped closer, two lines of blood flowed from the corner of her eyes, "I trust you so much, consider you my best friend, why do you treat me like that?"
"It wasn't me! It wasn't me who did it!" Trieu Minh shook his head frantically, his words were chaotic, "It's you! It's you who told me to kill him! You said you loved me, you said you would run away with me after the job is done! It's all because you forced me!"
At this point, he is still lying. Luu Le Le was completely desperate, she smiled sadly:
“Trieu Minh, I ask you one last time, Vuong Cuong... did you kill him?”
“No!” Trieu Minh screamed like crazy.
“Okay.” Luu Le Le nodded and turned to look at me, "Master, I don't want to get involved anymore. If he refuses to accept, then... let him go down and apologize to me."
As soon as she finished speaking, a thick black aura emitted from her body, her originally delicate face became terrifyingly fierce, her ten fingers grew long, sharp nails, shining with cold light. She's turning into a demon! I was startled and instinctively tried to stop him. But Luc Thoi Xuyen put his hand on my shoulder and shook his head. I saw the calmness in his eyes, forcing myself to calm down. This is acting... to scare Trieu Minh.
“Ah——!” Trieu Minh saw Luu Le Le's terrified appearance and finally collapsed completely. He held his head and burst into tears setting:
"I declare! I declare everything! I killed you! I killed you! It has nothing to do with Le Le! I faked the chat! I'm not human! I'm sorry for her!"
While crying, he hit the wall with his head, as if he wanted to use that method to atone for his sins. On the other side of the one-way mirror, Mr. Tan and the Special Department members recorded the entire process. The black aura around Luu Le Le's body gradually disappeared, her appearance also returned to normal, it's just that her image is now even more blurred. She looked at Trieu Minh who was sobbing, her eyes complicated, eventually turning into a sigh.
“Master, thank you.” She bowed deeply to me, "My wish... has been fulfilled, I should go."
I nodded. Luc Thoi Xuyen walked to Trieu Minh and handcuffed him.
“If you know this so early, why do you still do this?”

The case has been resolved, Luu Le Le is also preparing to be reincarnated. Before leaving, she hovered close to me, mysteriously saying:
"Master, the way Luc Canh looked at her... wasn't the look of a normal ex-lover. Try your best!"
After speaking, she turned into a stream of white light, then disappeared. I stood there, my face getting a little hot. Luc Thoi Xuyen finished handling everything and walked towards me.
“Let's go, I'll take you home.”
On the way home, the car was very quiet. I sneaked a look at him, he was concentrating on driving, his facial features were angular, cold but seductive.
“That… Special Department, are you still recruiting?” I mustered up the courage to ask.
He seemed to smile slightly, the corners of his lips curled up gently:
“What's wrong, have you figured it out?”
“I feel... catching ghosts has better prospects than fortune telling.” I said seriously.
“Yes, there is insurance, a pension, good benefits, and a love interest included.”
“Including the object of love?” My eyes lit up.
“Yes.” He didn't turn around, still focused on driving, but his voice carried a hint of laughter, "For example... internal digestion."
My heart stopped for a beat, not daring to say another word. The car stopped in front of my apartment building. I unfastened my seat belt and prepared to get out of the car.
“Giang Tri.” He suddenly called me back.
I turned my head and met his deep eyes.
“Three years ago, why did you break up with me?” he asked.
That question was like a key, opening up memories that had been buried for so long. Three years ago, the reason I broke up was not because he was too serious. But because I discovered, the negative energy on my body affects him. The more he was with me, the weaker his positive energy became. There was even a time when he was almost harmed by a demon in order to save me. I was afraid of implicating him, so I gritted my teeth and said goodbye. I don't want to continue lying to you anymore. I took a deep breath and told the whole truth. Including my yin and yang eyes and my special constitution. Having finished speaking, I looked at him worriedly, waiting for the verdict. Would you consider me a monster? Will you avoid me? Luc Thoi Xuyen listened silently, his face not surprised at all. He just stayed silent for a long time, then suddenly leaned over and unbuttoned his shirt. I was stunned, not understanding what he was planning to do. Until he pulled up the collar, revealing his left chest. At the location of his heart, there was a faint golden rune-shaped seal.
“What is that?” I asked in surprise.
“Please protect your mind.” He said, "Three years ago, after you left, I met Mr. Tan. He said I had a pure yang destiny. is 'the natural ability to destroy evil', one hundred evils cannot be invaded. As for me, I am a 'sound gathering body that is difficult to meet in a hundred years'. We are made for each other.”
I was completely stunned.
“What… do you mean?”
“I mean, your yin energy not only doesn't harm me, but also helps neutralize the strong yang energy in my body. On the contrary, my positive energy will also protect you and not let you be disturbed by evil things."
