Chapter 252 - I’ve Seen Too Many

Chapter 252 I’ve Seen Too Many

Since it’s not due to human manipulation, it’s a natural disaster.

But what kind of natural disaster is self-combustion?

Floods, droughts, typhoons, earthquakes, and so on are natural disasters. What kind of natural disaster is self-combustion? What a headache!

His train of thought was jammed again. Su Jingxing was having a headache.

Things were especially complicated.

Fortunately, Su Jingxing wasn’t fighting alone. Strange self-combustion occurred in the three prefectures at the same time.

This case was no longer a matter for one city.

For now, it was probably still four cities searching one another.

When a few more people were incinerated, the three prefectures’ administration would get involved for a joint investigation!

With this in mind, Su Jingxing controlled his Blood Doppelganger and headed to the Martial Suppression Office’s headquarters building in the Central District of Qinghe City.

vily.

The Western District branch could not continue the investigation. The matter was reported to the headquarters, and Li Linzhou, or even Bu Qing, would be personally responsible for it.

Of course, the prerequisite was that the Universal Envoy, Bu Qing, was still in Qinghe City.

Previously, Bu Qing had gotten injured. He might have stayed in Qinghe City to recuperate, or he might have returned to the capital.

Without any clues, Su Jingxing could only wait passively.

The next day.

Su Jingxing woke up early in the morning and went to the crematorium’s canteen for breakfast. While at it, he also chatted with Gu Bo, Kong Dabao, and the others.

Everyone was very concerned about the strange self-combustion that took place in the crematorium.

Although they had been consoled, everyone had a gossipy mind. Even if they did not discuss it openly, they would still talk in private. Su Jingxing could almost be considered middle management now, so Kong Dabao and the others wanted to get some information out of

him.

In the end, they were naturally fooled by Su Jingxing.

There was no benefit in knowing more about such matters for Kong Dabao and the rest.

Other than feeling increasingly fearful, what else would they gain?

Nothing!

After the meal, he went into the working area and patrolled around as usual. Su Jingxing activated his secret ability and heard everyone whispering, including a few managers.

Clearly, everyone was curious about the outcome.

After Wu Shouhan came to work, the managers even secretly went to his office to inquire, but were naturally chased out.

But soon after, Su Jingxing was called to his office.

“What’s wrong, Uncle Wu?” Su Jingxing asked as he walked into the office.

Wu Shouhan did not answer immediately. Instead, he got up and closed the office door. Then, he let out a breath and asked nervously and hesitantly, “Little Su, did you feel any discomfort after Xing Lunhu self-combusted yesterday?” Thump!

Su Jingxing’s heart skipped a beat. Without changing his countenance, he asked confusedly, “Discomfort?” “Yes. Just feeling flustered, anxious, fearful, and so on.”

Wu Shouhan sighed. “I won’t hide it from you, Little Su. Yesterday, after I left the Martial Suppression Office and returned home, I felt inexplicably flustered. When I went to bed at night, I suddenly woke up…”

“You had a nightmare?” Su Jingxing interrupted.

“…Yes.” Fear appeared in Wu Shouhan’s eyes, and his voice trembled. “I… I dreamed of myself. Like Xing Lunhu, I suddenly self-combusted and was burned to death!”

Su Jingxing kept quiet. Xing Lunhu was Brother Tiger[1].

When this fellow self-destructed, Wu Shouhan was also very close to him.

Although Su Jingxing had pushed everyone away, the distance was limited. How could he push everyone far away so quickly? Therefore, Su Jingxing and Wu Shouhan ended up standing closer.

At that time, Su Jingxing had sensed a terrifying danger surrounding himself. When Wu Shouhan went home, he was also inexplicably flustered. He even had a nightmare of himself self-combusting last night.

Su Jingxing would never believe that this was a coincidence.

Of course, the truth was currently unknown, and Su Jingxing couldn’t explain it directly.

After some thought, he comforted, “Uncle Wu, dreams are the opposite of reality. You probably had a nightmare last night because you were frightened during the day.”

“The saying what you think about in the day, you dream about at night is referring to your situation.”

“Take me for example. I slept through the night.”

In fact, Su Jingxing didn’t sleep at all last night. “Sigh…” Wu Shouhan covered his face with his hands and scratched hard a few times. He sighed and said, “Looks like I was really shocked and thought too much.”

“…I was also shocked yesterday.”

Su Jingxing smiled. “Who would have thought that… what Hu fellow? That he would suddenly self-combust and turn into ashes in less than ten seconds. Anyone would be shocked by that.

“Fortunately, I’ve seen so many corpses previously. In all kinds of terrible states, such as charred ones, dried ones, and dismembered ones. I’ve seen many of them that I’ve already developed my guts.

“Now, anytime I encounter any corpses or emergencies, I can get used to it quickly. I was shocked by what happened yesterday, but when I got home, I took a shower and slept. This morning, I was fine.”

With that, Su Jingxing shrugged.

“Hahaha…” Wu Shouhan laughed heartily. “You’ve really trained yourself, kid. The job of moving corpses is indeed the best way to build up one’s guts. When you encounter trouble after seeing so many corpses, there’s indeed nothing to be afraid of.”

“Alright, your words of consolation make perfect sense. I’ll make arrangements for myself. I’ll go move corpses for a day today!”

“That’s the way!” Su Jingxing gave him a thumbs up, his face full of smiles.

It wasn’t that he was deliberately tricking Wu Shouhan into moving corpses.

As a matter of fact, as long as there was work to do and he did not let his imagination run wild, he would not panic or fear.

It would be difficult to panic now since his attention had been diverted.

As for having nightmares, about self-combusting and being burnt to death,

Su Jingxing decided to give it a try.

He wanted to see if he would also dream of self-combusting and burning himself to death after falling asleep! At this thought, Su Jingxing left the office with Wu Shouhan.

Wu Shouhan went to the Corpse Collection Team. Su Jingxing went to his office and hypnotized himself to sleep.

Unexpectedly, just as he arrived at his office, before he even sat down, he heard a scream, followed by a commotion and more screams.

With Advanced Hearing, he learned that the voices were coming from the farewell ceremony hall.

The hall suddenly became chaotic. All kinds of voices were in a mess.

Su Jingxing froze when he heard two words.

Self-combustion!

Someone self-combusted again! In the farewell ceremony hall at that!

Swish!

When he came to his senses, Su Jingxing couldn’t be bothered to try sleeping anymore. He immediately turned around and rushed out of the office to the farewell ceremony hall.

He sprinted at the speed of an ordinary eighth-grade martial artist.

When he arrived at the hall and squeezed through the crowd, he saw a few security guards, the managers, and Wu Shouhan, who had arrived earlier. They looked at the pile of ashes on the ground with grim and fearful expressions. “Uncle Wu, what’s going on?” Su Jingxing walked over and asked softly.

“She… she self-combusted too!”

Wu Shouhan’s voice was trembling. He pointed at the ashes on the ground and said, “This relative had been crying earlier, but as she cried, she suddenly started burning!”

Crying?

Not rage and anger?

Startled, Su Jingxing turned to look at the others around.

“You were all witnesses? You saw her crying and burning up?”

No one responded. The family members in the farewell ceremony hall were all terrified and pale.

Instead, a security guard said in a trembling voice, “I… I saw. She was indeed crying, and she was crying very sadly. In the end…”

He did not continue.

But the meaning was clear.

The woman who self-combusted did indeed burn while crying.

And the cause of this was not rage, but extreme grief!
