Chapter 81: Merit Evaluation (Part 3)

After clicking on it, a video shot recorded by a passerby played.

Passerby: [I am a white-collar worker in a company, and the girl in the video is one of my colleagues. She is a kind-hearted, rich, and capable working woman. I heard that the man has a rural registered permanent residence in other provinces, but usually very nice to my colleague.]

[We didn’t know they broke up before. We only found out today when the man came to the company to cause trouble. I heard that the man’s parents were found to be criminals and would be sentenced to jail. The girl couldn’t accept it and unilaterally proposed a breakup, but the man was unwilling… ]

After clicking on the video, the shaking picture showed the gate of a certain company.

A young man blocked a girl, surrounded by many passers-by who were watching a show and eating melon.

The Girl: “I told you that neither my parents nor I can accept this. Can’t we break up peacefully? Why do you have to come to my company to make trouble? Are you that bored?”

The Boy: “It’s not fair. I didn’t participate in this matter and was not aware of it. Why are you angry with me because of my family?”

The Girl: “If I cared about your family, I wouldn’t be with you! What I care about is the matter itself. When I think of so many innocent women and children that your parents harmed… I can’t accept it. Stop pestering me!”

The Boy: “Haha, in the end, it’s not because my family collapsed. You just think I have no money to support you.”

The Girl: “???”

[…This man is a lunatic. There is nothing wrong with the woman’s decision. Not to mention, what happened to that man’s family. A relationship should be mutually consensual. If you don’t like the other person anymore, then break up!]

[Help, although I don’t think the blame must involve the children, but this man is influenced by his family at first glance, right?! I don’t believe that he does not know what his parents are doing at home!]

[Sister, it’s a good idea, run away from him!]

Gu Zhisang didn’t know the excitement on the Internet today.

She accepted the invitation from the Special Spiritual Department and came to the Rongcheng branch, where she had already made an appointment with Zheng Ruyu.

After arriving at the place and being led into the reception room, Gu Zhisang saw the people sitting in the room staring blankly and then walked in as usual.

Apart from Zheng Ruyu and the others, the first person sitting in the room was an elderly man with a serious temperament.

His gray hair and clothing details were meticulously taken care of, and he wore a dark uniform. The most conspicuous thing was the medals on his shoulders.

Judging from the above pattern, it was enough to prove that this person’s military rank was not low.

Gu Zhisang glanced at Zheng Ruyu: “Sister Zheng.”

Zheng Ruyu said: “Sangsang, this is the leader of our Special Spiritual Department. He hopes to talk to you in person during this meeting.”

The elderly man stood up and reached out his hand: “Hello, my surname is Yan and my name is Lang. I am currently the temporary person in charge of the Special Spiritual Department.”

When Gu Zhisang held hands with this officer, although his hands were a little soft due to his age, he could feel that this man had a righteous spirit.

But what surprised her even more was that the leader of the Special Spiritual Department turned out to be an ordinary person.

She was sure that Yan Lang had no Taoist practices, nor any metaphysical ability or physique.

Later, Gu Zhisang learned from Zheng Ruyu that Yan Lang’s military rank was lieutenant general. He was almost seventy years old and was an older military veteran.

When the Xia Country wanted to form a spiritual group, because there were not many Taoist Masters and the officials were afraid that it would offend the Taoist Sects after forming it, no one was willing to take over this mess.

It was Mister Yan Lang who took the initiative to stand up, gave up the promising future of promotion at that time, and took over the Special Spiritual Department.

Although he has no ability or special physique, over the years, he worked extremely hard to expand the Special Spiritual Department. Now there were branches in various provinces and were beginning to take shape.

Therefore, Zheng Ruyu and other Taoist masters within the Special Spiritual Department also respect him very much.

In the Nan Province trafficking case, the person who vouched for the order to arrest and search villagers in Xiaoshi Village and Xiaoyan Village was also Yan Lang.

After sitting down, Yan Lang did not hesitate and said directly:

“Miss Gu, I still have one purpose for coming here this time. On behalf of all the members of the spirit group, I sincerely invite you to join us, and I hope you can consider it.”

Gu Zhisang raised an eyebrow but felt that this old man’s straightforward attitude was quite comforting.

She thought for a moment and said: “Sorry, I still refuse. I said that I don’t like to be restrained and disciplined.”

“Just like this trip to Southern Province, if I were a member of the Taoist Sect or the Special Spiritual Department, then I would need to think a lot before doing things, and I have to consider your rules. I don’t like this.”

The Special Spiritual Department has also been assigned to the Inspection Department, which was considered the police station in the metaphysical world. It should also need to have tangible evidence before it handles cases.

But even if Gu Zhisang has no evidence, she can see many things that others cannot see through fortune-telling.

Yan Lang nodded and said: “I understand Miss Gu’s hesitation. Please listen to my opinion first.”

“We also have some relationships in the underworld. We know that Miss Gu is a Yin envoy of the underworld. We have a win-win cooperation with the underworld. We also assist them in investigating things in the underworld…”

Hearing this, Gu Zhisang was slightly surprised and glanced at Yan Lang and Zheng Ruyu.

Although the other person spoke very cryptically, she still understood it.

The Special Spiritual Department knew that she and the underworld were investigating the “Black Mist” matter. If it were not for the core management of the underworld, they would not know about such a relatively private matter.

They have such a relationship.

Yan Lang said: “To be honest, we have already discovered some anomalies in the metaphysical world in recent years and have launched an investigation. So far, we have achieved some results, and we have discovered some information.”

He paused for a moment, smiled bitterly and said:

“It’s just that this information involves many major and important cases in the past, and is a document classified as a national secret. Although our team hopes to work together with Miss Gu to achieve a win-win situation and uncover the truth behind it, we have to abide by relevant regulations and cannot leak it to the outside world.”

“If Miss Gu is willing, you can come to the Special Spiritual Department to be our special member. This position is a non-staff member of the Spiritual Group. Naturally, the rules of the Special Spiritual Department will not affect you. But Miss Gu will also not be considered an outsider. I can also share this information with Miss Gu.”

Gu Zhisang: “……”

The team leader at the headquarters was flexible.

Isn’t this move just like copying the underworld and setting her up as an “envoy” in the Special Spiritual Department?

Gu Zhisang didn’t need to think about it to know that there must have been no special members in the Special Spiritual Department before this.

But she had to say that Yan Lang’s words and his sincerity made her feel a little moved.

Yan Lang continued: “If Miss Gu has time, we would be extremely grateful if you take on some metaphysics cases that no one can solve. Or if Miss Gu has other important matters to attend to, I hope you can spare some time to guide the team members, so that they can understand the problem.”

“Of course, if you don’t want to, we won’t force you. Also, I have one more request. This is just my private request. I hope you can listen to it.”

Gu Zhisang said: “Tell me first.”

Yan Lang said: “I know a young man, surname Yan, whose body was filled with evil spirits for more than 20 years. He is now in danger.”

“I have a good personal relationship with him. If you don’t mind, could you check on him?”

  1. Is Gu Zhisang finally going to meet the ML?! He clearly has memories from the past, but I wonder if she’ll be able to recognize him as the weak prince (whose name I can’t remember) from her previous life in the sect.

    Thanks for the chapter! 😀

  2. Who need ML? Not her.

    Anyway, these authors are really pitiful, having to put a lot of propaganda in their works.

    1. If you’re so opposed to the idea of ​​a ML in this story, why are you even here?
      I remind you that this novel is labeled as romance and this tag is certainly not there to serve as decoration.
      And then, if you find the author that pitiful then go read something else.
      I am sure that among the multitude of existing novels, you will surely find something to your taste.
