Chapter 72: The Old Case from Over a Decade Ago! (Please collect!)

  "Legend has it, I'll make you a legend!" Tang Wan said as she slapped her magical palm towards Chu Feng. "Stop, lady, I really can't take your slap." Chu Feng hastily retreated and shouted loudly. Even without any hidden weapons, Tang Wan's combat strength was over a hundred, and if she used a bit more force, it would indeed be somewhat unbearable.

  "Alright, stop making a fuss. Let's go back and investigate who that woman is first. Chufeng, what do you think the possibility of her being wrongly killed is?"

  Chu Feng nodded: "Very big, if it's a normal death, there won't be much resentment, and without strong resentment, the ghost will naturally go to the underworld. Strong resentment, plus some other conditions, can make a ghost become a fierce ghost. The female ghost in the sea is a fierce ghost, and her strength is quite strong. Tang Wan, I know your strength is not bad, but don't be careless, that female ghost is more powerful than you. Feng Bing Xing, your strength is stronger than hers, but you may not have many ways to harm ghosts, so you should also be careful. If your injuries are triggered, it's no joke."

  Tang Wan looked at Feng Bing Cong in surprise: "Bing Cong sister, are you injured?" Feng Bing Cong nodded slightly: "Just a little injury, don't worry about it."

  "Chu Feng, you actually figured out that Feng Bing Xing was injured. That's impressive. How did you know?" Tang Wan asked.

  "I just calculated it with my fingers, brother," Chu Feng said. "Alright, let's go change our clothes first and then investigate when we get back."

  A few people quickly changed out of their swimsuits and got back in the car, driving into the villa. "It's been over a decade since then, I don't know if anyone can still recognize her," said Han Xiang. "This villa has such a long history, only those who have been working here from the very beginning might be able to. I'll call Liu Jie and ask her to come take a look, Liu Jie has also been working here for many years, but I'm not sure if it's over ten years."

  Chu Feng and the others nodded slightly, Han Xiang dialed the phone number, and in a short while, the woman in her thirties they had met before arrived at their villa.

  "Miss Han Xiang, is there something going on?" The woman glanced at Chu Feng and his group before speaking to Han Xiang. Han Xiang smiled and said, "Sister Liu, we've also known each other for many years, no need to be too polite, Sister Liu please sit down."

  "Thank you, Ms. Han Xiang." The woman sat down. Han Xiang said: "Liu Jie, I don't know how many years you've been here?" The woman's face showed a nostalgic expression: "When this resort was first established, I was already here, it has been 15 years now, from the beginning as a small service staff to becoming the current high-end customer manager."

  Chu Feng's eyes lit up slightly, unexpectedly this woman was only in her thirties but had already been working here for over ten years. "Sister Liu, do you have any impression of things from over a decade ago?" Liu Xiang asked.

  The woman smiled and said: "It depends on what happened. Generally speaking, I don't remember things well, but if it's something that left a deep impression, I still remember some of it."

  "Look at this woman, Liu Jie, do you recognize her? She was like that over a decade ago." Han Xiang handed the painting drawn by Chu Feng to the woman.

  The woman took that painting and at first there was nothing, but after a while, a thoughtful expression appeared on her face: "This woman I seem to have seen before, wait, let me think."

  Chu Feng didn't disturb her, the woman stared at the portrait and suddenly remembered something. About two minutes later, the woman's face changed slightly. "Liu sister, have you thought of something?" Han Xiang hurriedly asked.

  The woman nodded slightly: "I remember, this resort was built sixteen years ago. About fifteen years ago, a woman came to the resort for vacation. She was very beautiful and her name was Miao Qi. She looked even more beautiful than in the picture. There was also a man with her, about thirty years old. At that time, I was just a small service staff member and didn't have the qualifications to receive them. However, I liked to wander around during my free time, so I saw the two of them."

  "After they had been here for three days, something happened and Miao Qi suddenly disappeared. The man reported it to the police and searched frantically for several days but couldn't find her anywhere. Then the man left, and the police investigated for many more days but there was no result at all. If that's all there was to it, perhaps my memory wouldn't be so vivid. But within seven days after the woman disappeared, many people in the resort reported seeing ghosts, which affected business greatly. However, there were no casualties, and after seven days, nobody reacted to this matter anymore, and everything slowly returned to normal."

  "What about the final outcome?" "There was no outcome, the police couldn't find any leads and could only treat it as a missing person case. If so many years have passed already, she would have been declared dead by now." The woman said.

  "What's that man's name?"

  The woman thought for a moment and said: "It seems to be called Sima Hao. What's the reason you're asking about this?" Han Xiang shook her head: "Nothing, thank you, Liu sister."

  "No need to be polite, if there's anything else just call me." The woman knew she should leave and stood up, in a moment she had already left the villa where Chu Feng and others were staying.

  Chu Feng said, "Han Xiang, why didn't you continue asking? Maybe that woman knows what kind of person Sima Hao is." Han Xiang's face wasn't looking good at this time: "There's no need to ask anymore. As for Sima Hao, I might know him."

  Tang Wan slightly furrowed her brow and said, "It seems that Sima Yun's father, the current leader of the Sima family is indeed Sima Jiao. Han Xiang, are you referring to him?"

  Han Xiang nodded: "I'm afraid it's very likely to be his. The surname Sima is not common, and the fact that he can make a case that the police can't investigate at all, this is not something that an ordinary person can do. Moreover, I heard from my elders that more than ten years ago, Sima Hao's fiancée disappeared, connecting the two things together, what do you think?"

  "This matter, we can't help that female ghost anymore, right? More than a decade has passed, even if there was evidence before, now it's definitely gone without a trace. And if there's no ironclad evidence, which police officer would dare to investigate the Sima family?" Lan Wen said.

  Chu Feng said: "Is the Sima family very powerful?"

  Lan Wen nodded: "Yes, very powerful. The Sima family has a strong influence in both the black and white worlds. In the black world, the three eastern provinces are basically controlled by the Sima family. In the white world, the Sima family is involved in transportation, catering, clothing, security and other aspects. It's best if we don't get involved in this matter. We don't have any evidence in our hands. If we go to investigate and arouse the suspicion of the Sima family, we will all be in trouble, especially you, Chu Feng."

  Chu Feng's face was also somewhat solemn at this time, perhaps in the future his strength would be powerful and he wouldn't fear the Sima family, but for now, if the Sima family wanted to kill him, it would be very easy.

  Feng Bing furrowed her brow and said, "Are we just going to let this matter drop?" "Bing Xing, this is not a simple matter," Han Xiang said. "Simar Hawthorn is no ordinary person. If something happens to him, both the underworld and the officialdom will be shaken to their foundations. The number of people who will die as a result is unknown, and the economic losses are incalculable."

  "If we had ironclad evidence, then we could take swift action and settle the matter in a very short time, minimizing losses. However, without such evidence, we cannot act rashly against Sima Hui, and if we provoke the Sima family, the consequences would be severe." said Han Xiang.

  Feng Bing nodded slightly: "Mm, without evidence we can't randomly frame someone. By the way, Chu Feng, since Miao Qi became a vengeful spirit, why didn't she go find the person who wronged her to take revenge?"

  Chu Feng said, "It's not that easy. Miao Qi is very likely to have become a vengeful spirit in the sea. The conditions for forming a vengeful spirit are different, and different conditions are subject to different constraints. Maybe she is constrained from leaving this area."

  "Chu Feng, it's been over a decade, that female ghost is seeking revenge, but why did three people just die recently?" Han Xiang asked in puzzlement.
