Skin Painter - C107

Seeing me and Qiyou who had already changed into their original form at the same time, instantly ripping Imagawa Jiro, who was laughing wildly, into pieces, I panted heavily for a good while, and then stood there for a moment as though I was in a dream.

The Vajra Evil Subduing Pestle pattern instantly dimmed, and Qiyou also became the size of a palm. At this moment, we were already exhausted, without any more energy.

However, it was also at this time that Imagawa Jiro’s wild laughter rang out yet again, and it still did not stop. I was instantly shocked and turned my face, only to see that he was still standing there, looking at us with a playful expression.

“What’s going on?” My heart sank to the bottom of the valley once again. When I looked back to where Imagawa Jiro was standing, other than the ink all over the floor, there was nothing else.

“Not bad, not bad, your power is more than enough to deal with me. Fortunately, I had set up a substitute, if not, I’m afraid that I would be the one to die,” Imagawa Jiro said with a faint smile as he walked over. He lowered his head to look at the palm-sized Qiyou, and grabbed onto the trembling almond face of her, and coldly said: “It’s time!”

As he spoke till here, a gust of black aura instantly rose from Imagawa Jiro’s palm and enveloped the petite Qiyou within it.

“Qiyou!” I called out weakly, but I didn’t have the slightest strength left. My eyes went black as they fell to the ground, and I panted heavily as I looked at the ball of black energy in Imagawa Jiro’s palm.

“Don’t worry, I have a new method now, and I want to refine you into a pipe as well …” With a cruel smile on his face, Imagawa Jiro coldly looked at me, who was paralyzed on the ground, and continued.

However, halfway through his words, a deafening explosion resounded, as if someone had set off a thunderous clap in his ears. At the same time, Imagawa Jiro’s body trembled intensely, and before he could finish, he stiffened in his mouth.

I was shocked and only regained my senses after staring blankly for a long while. I turned my head to look at Captain Hu, only to see him pouting his head, raising his right hand slightly. The barrel of a handgun was slowly emitting green smoke.

Was that the sound of gunfire?

I swallowed my saliva, only then did I come back to my senses, and caught Qiyou who was jumping down from Imagawa Jiro’s palm. If it wasn’t for the fact that I lacked strength, I would have hugged Captain Hu and fiercely kissed him.

“Qiyou, we’re saved,” Seeing Imagawa Jiro fall like a rotten log, I heaved a sigh of relief, rubbing my face against Qiyou’s smooth fur and said softly.

In the blink of an eye, the room was deathly silent!

Lying on the ground, I opened my eyes and saw that Captain Hu was rubbing his head as he sat up. After snorting a few times, he turned his head to look at me and asked: “Ma Que, are you alright?”

I smiled bitterly and replied indifferently, “It’s alright. I only have half a breath left.”

As I spoke, I felt that the wound on my wrist that was previously slashed by Imagawa Jiro was a little numb and itchy. Lowering my head, I saw that Qiyou, who had already turned into a snow-white weasel, was licking my wound with her delicate tongue.

I gave a faint smile, stroked its head, and sighed before lying down again.

Needless to say, the feeling of being reborn was really good!

“An ambulance?” Captain Hu asked me.

I shook my head, I am very clear about my current condition, and would at most lose a lot of blood. As for Qiyou’s condition, I am really worried, and adding the fact that this place is extremely strange, at that time, a doctor might really cause more trouble.

The Captain Hu helped me up and sized me up. “You really don’t need to call an ambulance?”

I shook my head, feeling the world spinning around me, lazily lying on the sofa, I asked Captain Hu who was looking down at Imagawa Jiro, weakly: “How is it, is he dead?”

“No.” Captain Hu coldly replied.

I only felt cold sweat trickling down my back. When I turned to the side to look, I realized that although Imagawa Jiro was lying motionlessly on the ground, his chest was still moving up and down. He really wasn’t dead.

It was only then that Captain Hu casually added: “But it will also be soon.”

I heaved a sigh of relief and glanced at him grumpily. “Then why don’t you give me another shot? If not, it would be really troublesome.”

Captain Hu laughed bitterly and shook his head, sighing: “I do want to, but I am a police officer, I cannot do that.”

‘F * ck! ‘I was immediately infuriated. I gritted my teeth and said, “It’s not like anyone saw it. What’s there to be afraid of?”

However, the Captain Hu still stubbornly shook his head and took out his phone to make a call. Thus, I asked him, “What are you doing?”

“Call for help!” Captain Hu didn’t look too good either, after panting for a bit, he took out his handcuffs and immobilized Imagawa Jiro, then sat down on the ground.

Looking at the bright handcuffs, I really didn’t feel at ease. Taking the opportunity when Captain Hu was done talking, I took another break and crawled over, supporting myself with my body. After searching through Imagawa Jiro’s body from head to toe, I found all the strange things that were hiding on his body, afraid that he was still hiding some tricks.

But, also at this time, I realized that Qiyou had actually come closer, and was sniffing into the small cloth bag inside Imagawa Jiro’s body.

I was immediately curious, so I took the cloth bag and opened it. It turned out to be a dark red bead that seemed like it was made of ice.

“You want it?” I looked at Qiyou who had propped up her small and exquisite body, and couldn’t help but smile, and laugh as I placed this pearl in front of Qiyou.

But, what I didn’t expect was that right after Qiyou came over, she suddenly threw herself over and swallowed the pearl in one gulp.

“Cough, don’t eat it, this thing is too strange.” I was shocked when I saw it, and immediately tried to stop it, but there was no time. I just saw Qiyou move much slower after swallowing the bead.

“What’s going on? Is there poison?” Looking at Qiyou like this, my heart immediately felt up and down.

“Who are you talking to?” Captain Hu also came over and asked me with a puzzled expression. It was only at this moment that I realised that Captain Hu couldn’t see Qiyou.

Thus, I chuckled and said, “Even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand. You’re my good helper.”

However, the speaker was unintentional and the listener unintentionally. When Captain Hu heard my words, his entire body shivered, and his face instantly turned even paler. He unconsciously distanced himself from me.

Looking at his arrogant appearance, she must have thought that Qiyou was some other existence, but I was too lazy to care about it, so I let him go, picking up the petite Qiyou and looking at it, quietly curled up in my palm.

Not long after, an urgent warning sound came from outside the window. Captain Hu’s reinforcements had arrived, and red and blue light immediately interweaved outside the window. I turned my head to look at Imagawa Jiro who was lying on the ground, and couldn’t help but feel anxious.

These policemen were all normal people, who knew what kind of strange methods Imagawa Jiro had. If he ran away then, wouldn’t all the hard work he had done go to waste?

The more I thought about it, the more unwilling I became. Gritting my teeth, I pulled off a handful of hair from his head, and then, taking advantage of Captain Hu being caught unprepared, secretly kicked him in the face a few times to vent my anger.

When a large number of police officers rushed over, as an assistant specially invited by Captain Hu, I was only able to record a few sentences and finish the job. Then, under the Captain Hu’s arrangements, I returned to the hotel to rest.

Throughout the entire process, I had been tightly grabbing onto Imagawa Jiro’s hair. You have to understand, this is my last trump card towards Imagawa Jiro.

After returning to the hotel, I first called Uncle Chen and asked him how things were going with Lanlan.

Uncle Chen told me that everything was completed, but Lanlan’s body was weak, and I’m afraid that she will need to return home to rest for a while.

After hearing that, I heaved a sigh of relief. When I heard Uncle Chen asking when I would be back, I smiled and said, “It won’t be long!”

After hanging up, I felt a wave of tiredness, so I put Qiyou on my pillow and didn’t even bother to take a bath before falling asleep.

I slept soundly, and actually only woke up slowly when dusk fell on the second day. Looking at Qiyou, who was still curled up into a ball, I couldn’t help but feel a burst of worry. After carefully observing him for a bit, I realized that it was only slightly relieved when it went to sleep.

I don’t know what that red bead is, but Qiyou definitely recognized it, if not, it would not have swallowed it so easily.

After thinking about it, I calmed myself down and looked at Imagawa Jiro’s hair that was wrapped in a piece of paper. My eyes turned cold as I looked at the sun.

I was already familiar with this place that sold incense sticks and yellow paper. Just as the sky turned dark, I bought all of my things, and as soon as I landed at the hotel, I called Captain Hu and asked him about Imagawa Jiro’s situation.

Captain Hu sighed and said, “Whether he wakes up or not, his identity is unique so it’s not easy to settle this issue. Moreover, he has an alibi for all the cases, so we have no way of accusing him of anything.”

Hearing this, my heart immediately quivered, only then did I remember that Imagawa Jiro used profound techniques to commit crimes, how could an ordinary judgement judge him half a crime.

So I asked the Captain Hu, “Then is he willing to admit it?”

Captain Hu shook his head and said: “How could he be willing to admit it? He even threatened to invite them to intervene in this matter.”

Hearing that, I almost flew into a rage, but, I lowered my head to look at the hair on Imagawa Jiro’s head, then coldly laughed and hung up the phone.

Captain Hu’s side couldn’t help but say that I had no other choice. I tightly gripped onto a handful of hair and coldly smiled. Without saying anything further, I lit up three incense sticks of time and wrapped a piece of yellow paper to wrap it up.
