Chapter 52 Shanty Dwelling
Catching the murderer?
Chai Cuiqiao suddenly lost interest and pouted. However, considering the new phone she had received, she still dutifully squeezed into the spirit banner disguised as a black umbrella.
The condition for the spirit banner to nourish the Spiritual Body was to absorb Yin energy. Consequently, Li Ang had spent a good deal of time visiting cemeteries with the black umbrella these past few days. To maintain his cover, he had even bought a few bunches of small plastic flowers and tucked them into his breast pocket.
"I wonder where the police officer responsible for monitoring my safety is positioned..."
Muttering to himself, Li Ang moved the landline phone to the carpet by the door. He attached a voice control module to it, setting it to automatically call his mobile phone whenever it detected sounds above 70 decibels. This was a precaution in case a police officer knocked on the door to check on him.
Afterward, he put on his hooded Night Clothes, gloves, and rain boots, donned the red-faced Guan Gong style Face-Changing Mask, tucked an axe and dagger into his belt, shouldered the black umbrella, and vaulted out the window.
To avoid any others in Yin City who might possess Spiritual Sense, Li Ang didn’t immediately summon Chai Cuiqiao. Instead, he used his fingers to grip cracks in the wall, stepped on the outdoor air conditioning unit, and climbed, level by level, up to the rooftop terrace.
The wind on the rooftop was both cold and strong. Li Ang pulled at his collar and took out his phone.
