Chapter 10, Night Roaming Deity (Part 1) Today's first update, seeking votes

  Here is the translation:

  (Today, I'll talk about the book review issue from yesterday's reader, Xiao Qiao. The female lead will indeed appear, but only later on. Currently, it's the story development stage, with many strange and bizarre events happening. Moreover... I haven't thought of what kind of profession and characteristics to give the female lead yet. Friends who have read the book can leave suggestions in the review section about what kind of combination would be beneficial. For example, Ye Yi is a professional ghost catcher and Feng Shui master, serving as the main combat force. Yang Guang has his mother's protective amulet, standing undefeated. Occasionally, there are guest appearances by people like Vice Captain Wang Zhengping, who belongs to the high-frequency appearance category due to his profession. Yesterday, I saw Xiao Qiao's comment, and personally, I think it would be great to add a cool and beautiful female autopsy officer... but this doesn't fit with the tomb raiding and Feng Shui theme. It feels like there are pros and cons; does anyone have any good suggestions for a professional female character? Adding her in will make the story more interesting.)

  The deputy captain walked over and saw me standing on the scene with a disappointed face, threw a cigarette to me and said: "Go in and take a look?"

  I shook my head and said, "Don't look at me dealing with the cemetery all day, but I really haven't seen any dead people. I'm afraid of going in and getting nauseous."

  "When will Ye arrive?" the deputy captain asked me.

  "I said: 'Hurry up? I called him when I left the house.'"

  The deputy captain pulled out two packs of sausages from the package and asked me, "Haven't eaten yet? Eat something to fill your stomach."

  I said with disgust: "There are dead bodies in the back, can you still eat?"

  "What's wrong with it? It's fine once you get used to it."

  I don't dare compliment his professional ethics: "Forget it, I didn't plan on getting used to it."

  The deputy captain squatted beside me, gnawing on a sausage, without any image at all.

  After another ten or so minutes, Ye Yi's luxurious Jeep slowly drove into the cemetery and stopped from a distance. My deputy commander and I hurried over, and Ye Yi smiled at us, saying: "You two brothers are in good spirits, having a picnic here." This guy didn't even speak politely, and just as he saw that my deputy commander still had a pack of sausages in his hand, he snatched them away and started gnawing on them.

  What kind of creatures have I been in contact with?

  Yeyihao and the deputy captain made it clear what was going on at the scene while they were eating sausages.

  "Let's go in and take a look before making a final conclusion. Although we can already roughly guess what might have caused it."

  I followed them to the isolation belt near the scene, and I didn't plan to go in anymore.

  Yeyih looked at me and smiled: "I heard you quit? Then come in and get familiar with it together. There will be more disgusting things to encounter sooner or later."

  I shivered at his words, and this was certainly not a good omen. However, after hearing Ye Yi's words, I still followed him in with a stiff upper lip.

  Actually, there's nothing much left inside, except for the blood all over the floor, and scattered pieces of unidentifiable flesh stuck to the ground. There are also white irregular circles drawn in various places, which mark where bodies used to be.

  The scene wasn't as disgusting as I had imagined, but it was still a big challenge for me. Fortunately, in the past few days, I've been following Ye Yi and haven't been idle, my mental endurance has increased greatly.

  "What's your opinion?" Deputy Captain asked Ye Yi.

  Inside the isolation zone, there were only three of us on site, so the deputy captain wouldn't ask in such a secretive manner.

  Ye Yi didn't immediately answer the deputy captain's question, took out a compass and walked to the tombstone, starting to walk along a certain route. What was strange was that Ye Yi's walking route actually passed through the edge of each irregular circle, he lowered his head, only looking at the compass, and circled around like that. The route he walked actually passed through all the corpse fragments.

  Obviously, Ye Yi was calculating the way that thing moved and its trajectory in his own way. As he walked, Ye Yi would occasionally swing his arms, as if waving or tearing something apart and discarding it. It was very eerie...

  After walking to a certain point, Ye started jumping back to the front of the tombstone. Finally, he put the compass in his bag and walked back to our side, saying: "Everyone who has come into contact with this scene today should gather together. Find a way to get rid of this."

  Yeyih took out a burnt object from his pocket and explained, "This is the seed of a wild sunflower that grows on East Mountain. It has a strong effect in expelling yin energy from the body. Whether you drink it or not is up to you, but those who don't may get seriously ill later. Oh, police officers don't need it, it's mainly for ordinary people."

  The deputy captain took over the burnt sunflower seeds and asked: "What is this thing?"

  Yeh frowned and said: "It's a nocturnal spirit. I don't know what reason they provoked the nocturnal spirit."

  "Night Roaming Spirit?" The deputy captain said: "Is this also considered a dirty thing?"

  "To be precise, the Night Walker is a proper deity. Once it's related to deities, it doesn't count as an impure thing. It belongs to those with nameplates... hmm, civil servants. In this sense, it should be explainable. You can consider the heavenly court in mythological stories as a formal institution, and the Night Walker is an official employee within that institution. As for evil spirits and ghosts, they belong to real-life criminals. The specific classification is more complicated."

  "I just want to know if that thing will come again? And what's going on here?" the deputy captain asked.

  "Let's make a hypothesis," Ye thought for a moment before responding, "Yesterday three died, and four died in the graveyard. So they all came out and occupied human bodies. And because one physical body was short, one of them had to be shared."

  He paused, and Ye pointed to the ground around him, saying: "This place is like a signal transmitter. Because of the changed tombstones and the splashed feces, plus the array I set up, this place has become a place that all four directions and gods know about. So they will also guard against things coming out of here and harming the world. However, they are usually very violent because the gods have the power to kill people, which is why it's said that there are gods watching from above, and the concept of heavenly punishment means that if you do too many bad things and get caught by the gods patrolling the human world, you'll be executed on the spot. Unfortunately, the people who have been guarding this place for the past few days are definitely not good guys, and they just happened to be cooked in the same pot."

  Pausing for a moment, Ye Yihua summarized the situation: "To put it simply, we don't need to bother anymore. The matter has basically been taken care of by that passing Night Walker. It's just that things got a bit bloody - not only were those four brothers punished, but three other scoundrels were also eliminated in the process. Yeah, that's pretty much it."

  "You said so, I have no way to write this report." The deputy captain said angrily.

  Ye shrugged and smiled, "That's your skill. No big deal if it's a cold case. The beast is definitely not going to be found, even if you have the skills to find it, you may not be able to catch it."

  I asked on the side: "Is there a way to find the night-wandering god and ask him?"

  Yi rolled her eyes at me and said: "If you want to die, just say so. Jumping off a building or into the sea, or electrocuting yourself would be faster, wouldn't it?"

  "Is it that serious?" I muttered.

  "It's not that serious." Ye Yī said: "It's just that after you've seen the Night Roaming Spirit, he'll treat you as a friend and often drop by your home to hang out. Don't look at him as a proper god, but his attribute is also yin and it's an extremely yin attribute. If you come into contact with him too much, you'll be plagued by bad luck."

  Just at this moment, the old ladies from the Zhou family arrived, bringing a large group of people with them.

  As soon as I saw him, he roared at me, and the people behind him also rushed up in a hurry.
