After leaving the teahouse in a hurry, Su Mu did not head straight home like most people. Instead, he turned and walked briskly toward the school.
At this moment, there was something crucial that needed his attention—completing all the necessary procedures for graduation as soon as possible.
Only then could he devote himself wholeheartedly to the mysterious and dangerous investigation ahead.
Fortunately, given the special nature and urgency of the situation, the school showed great understanding and support.
After a series of tedious yet efficient processes, the school finally approved Su Mu's application for early graduation.
At the moment all the paperwork was completed, the tension that had been coiling tightly in Su Mu's heart eased slightly, as if a heavy burden had been lifted just a little.
However, he knew very well that this was merely a small beginning.
Ahead of him lay even more daunting and challenging tasks.
At the same time, Ye Qiu rushed back to the police station in a flurry.
As soon as she entered her office, she barely had time to catch her breath before quickly gathering her elite team members.
Then, in a serious and authoritative tone, she detailed the key clues she had just obtained from Su Mu along with her precise judgments based on her own experience.
“Everyone, that notorious Xuanming Sect, this evil organization that had been silent for some time, has resurfaced and is taking action!”
Ye Qiu's words were resolute, each one revealing her unwavering determination to eradicate them completely. “This time, no matter how great the difficulties we face, we must spare no effort to bring them to justice! We cannot allow these societal scum to continue roaming free and harming others!”
Hearing Ye Qiu's powerful declaration, the expressions of everyone present grew serious.
At that moment, a young and somewhat inexperienced officer couldn't help but ask, "Captain Ye, if that's the case, where should we begin our investigation? After all, the Xuanming Sect is known for its unpredictable actions..."
"The surveillance footage provided by Su Mu is undoubtedly the key clue to unraveling this mystery!"
Ye Qiu fixed her gaze on the still image of the night owl on the screen, her expression grave. The figure of the night owl was shrouded in darkness, revealing only a pair of gleaming eyes that sent chills down one's spine.
"That's right, this night owl is a top assassin within the Xuanming Sect!" another officer interjected, his voice tinged with apprehension. "Not only is he skilled in disguise techniques, allowing him to change his appearance at will and evade detection, but he is also an expert in stealth, seamlessly blending into his surroundings like a ghost. Tracking his movements will be no easy task!"
However, Ye Qiu did not waver in the face of these challenges. She nodded firmly in agreement. "I understand the difficulty of this task, but even so, we cannot afford to give up even a shred of hope!
I will contact other relevant departments immediately to request their technical support and assistance.
At the same time, we must intensify our investigation into the Xuanming Sect, leaving no stone unturned in our efforts to uncover their hiding place as soon as possible!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Qiu's team members quickly responded and plunged into their urgent and orderly work.
Some focused on conducting in-depth analyses of the surveillance footage and other technical materials, trying to extract more information about the night owl and the Xuanming Sect;
while others tirelessly roamed the streets and alleys, interviewing locals and sifting through clues in search of potential breakthroughs.
Some people were busy communicating and coordinating with other departments, ensuring that resources from all sides could be fully integrated and utilized.
In an instant, a tense yet fervent atmosphere enveloped the entire police station. Everyone was performing their duties, racing against time, as if a thrilling battle was about to unfold.
As various tasks progressed in an orderly manner, an invisible net was gradually closing in on the Xuanming Sect. The operation against the evil forces had officially begun, heralding a grand and sweeping campaign.
Su Mu pushed open the door to his home with a weary body, and a sense of desolation washed over him.
The house was empty, devoid of any warmth, and the silence was unsettling. Usually at this time, his mother would be bustling in the kitchen with her apron on, while his father would be sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper. But now, that familiar scene had vanished.
He sighed deeply, understanding that in order to bring his parents back to this warm home, he needed to uncover the truth as quickly as possible.
With a renewed sense of determination, he sat down at his desk and began to organize his thoughts.
After some careful consideration, Su Mu decided he should look for breakthroughs among the patients he had previously visited.
Perhaps he could discover new clues among them that would help unravel this mystery.
With that thought in mind, he closed his eyes and tried hard to recall every interaction he had with each patient, paying attention to any details he might have overlooked.
At that moment, a memory flashed through his mind like lightning—the esteemed old Chinese medicine doctor!
He had once mentioned casually that a patient who had experienced adverse reactions from the prescription given by Father Su had visited a herbal shop on the outskirts of the city just days before the incident to purchase a batch of special herbs.
The important information instantly ignited a spark of hope in Su Mu's heart. Without hesitation, he stood up, grabbed the car keys, and hurriedly walked out the door. Along the way, he was anxious and urged himself to move faster.
Finally, the car stopped in front of a herbal medicine shop located on the outskirts of the city.
Taking a deep breath to steady his emotions, Su Mu stepped inside the store.
Inside, various Chinese medicinal herbs were displayed, filling the air with a strong herbal fragrance.
Behind the counter sat an elderly man in his fifties, with a kind face, who was focused on organizing his accounts.
Su Mu approached him, trying to appear as natural as possible. He smiled and asked, "Hello, sir. I would like to buy some Chinese herbs to help with my health. Do you have any good recommendations?"
Hearing someone speak, the shopkeeper looked up and scrutinized Su Mu from head to toe, a hint of wariness flashing in his eyes.
However, he still politely nodded and replied, "That depends on your specific symptoms. Different ailments require different herbs."
Seeing this, Su Mu thought it best not to rush things. He continued to act nonchalant and said, "Actually, it's nothing serious. I've just been feeling like my sleep hasn't been great lately. I heard some herbs can help calm the mind and aid sleep, so I wanted to ask you about that."
Then he casually added, "By the way, I heard from a friend that a patient bought a rather special herb from you not long ago and said it worked quite well. Do you remember what it was?"
Under Su Mu's skillful guidance, which was as delicate as peeling layers from an onion, the shopkeeper initially hesitated and seemed reluctant to speak. However, he ultimately could not withstand Su Mu's persistent questioning and slowly revealed some crucial information.
It turned out that among the many herbs purchased by that patient was a particularly toxic herb known as "Heartbreak Grass."
It must be noted that the herb known as the Heartbreak Grass itself does not trigger the abnormal reactions exhibited by the patient.
However, if it is mixed with a certain ingredient from the prescription provided by Father Su, it will instantly produce a highly toxic substance capable of causing death.
Upon hearing this, Su Mu felt a sudden jolt in his heart, as if a lightning bolt had struck through his mind.
In that moment, he deeply realized that this could very well be the key clue to unraveling the entire mystery!
Clearly, someone with malicious intent had deliberately instructed this patient to purchase the Heartbreak Grass and then sought to mix it with Father Su's prescription. This way, they could easily fabricate a shocking medical incident, aiming to slander and frame Father Su for their nefarious purposes!
With this thought in mind, Su Mu did not dare to delay for even a moment. He hurriedly informed Ye Qiu of this astonishing secret he had just uncovered.
After listening, Ye Qiu expressed her strong agreement and also recognized that this was undoubtedly a significant and crucial breakthrough.
Thus, she made swift decisions and quickly arranged for deployment.
She immediately mobilized police forces to conduct comprehensive covert surveillance and control operations on the herbal shop that sold the Heartbreak Grass.
At the same time, she initiated an in-depth investigation into the patient who had purchased the Heartbreak Grass, hoping to trace back to uncover the true mastermind lurking in the shadows along with relevant clues.
At that moment, both Su Mu and Ye Qiu felt deeply that as this series of investigative efforts progressed further, they were getting closer and closer to the elusive truth behind the incident...
