Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chi Shuyan puzzled over this as they went to see the village chief. On the way, she didn’t expect to run into someone familiar in this village, and it was none other than Ruan Shenglin.

So, he was part of the film crew that the villagers had been talking about?

There were quite a lot of people at the village chief’s place at that moment. Chi Shuyan also realized that there were many good-looking people in this crew – as expected of people in the entertainment industry.

The group came and left quickly.

Ruan Shenglin initially planned to leave with them, but after taking a few steps, he saw Master Chi at the door. His eyes lit up and his gaze could be said to be very hot. He wanted to say something, but hesitated.

!!

Ruan Shenglin couldn’t be bothered to talk to the other actors. He wanted to go over first, but he thought about how the director was here, and that this was the village chief’s residence. It had to be pointed out that so many of them had come to the village this time to film. If they didn’t give enough benefits, the village chief might not give his consent.

Ruan Shenglin couldn’t cause trouble, so he followed the others out for the time being.

After Ruan Shenglin left, Chi Shuyan looked away. Feng Yuanlin thought that it was strange and couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “What? Shuyan, is that person an acquaintance?”

Speaking of which, Feng Yuanlin also felt that many of those people looked familiar; given their profession, he thought he had probably seen them in some TV drama or movie. However, he didn’t have that much interest in the entertainment circle. He suddenly remembered that Zhenbai’s company was involved in the entertainment industry. He was about to ask him, when he also remembered that Zhenbai was a true big boss – it would be strange if he knew those people!

Feng Yuanlin hurriedly shut his mouth. At that moment, Chi Shuyan said in a low voice, “I only know one person, and we’re acquaintances at most! Brother Feng, let’s not talk about it for now!”

Feng Yuanlin nodded and looked up to see an old man in his sixties with white hair and a hunched back. This should be the village chief.

The village chief had just received a group of people, but there was no unhappiness on his face when he received another group. Instead, his eyes were friendly and patient. He served them tea and water, then had them sit down. He asked them ordinary questions like where they were from and how many days they would be staying in the village.

If one didn’t investigate the village in detail, this village chief really looked like a typical good person. He had a benevolent face, kind eyes, and a very friendly gaze, which gave people a very good impression of him. An ordinary person would have long felt that he was a good person.

But Feng Yuanlin and the others were police officers. How many good and bad people had they seen? Their past experience with cases told them that even the most kindly-looking person could wind up being the murderer. So, as they conversed, they were inwardly very vigilant.

Qi Zhenbai, on the other hand, was innately sharp and suspicious. His sharp gaze fell on the benevolent-looking village chief in front of him for a moment before he looked away.

After some conversation, Chi Shuyan learned that the village chief’s name was Pan Dalei. He was the 16th village chief of Dashan Village and had been in charge of the village since he was young. This village couldn’t be considered poor or rich. This village chief had always been dedicated to making the village prosper, but the village was accustomed to being closed off, and he was worried that the villagers wouldn’t be used to it. At the same time, he was also afraid that outsiders would disrupt village traditions, so the village chief had always been wary of strangers. Every time a stranger came to the village, he needed to meet with them, just as a form of reassurance.

Village Chief Pan’s explanation made sense.

Chi Shuyan and the others looked at the elderly Village Chief Pan in front of them again.

Village Chief Pan seriously expounded on the village’s rules, but also wished them a relaxing stay, and apologized if they weren’t used to the circumstances.

His tone was very friendly.

While the others were talking to Village Chief Pan, Chi Shuyan’s eyes fell on his face. To be honest, she couldn’t see anything. Taking in his subtle expression, she couldn’t tell if this village chief was good or bad.

Chi Shuyan could read a person’s physiognomy, and this village chief was indeed a good person. He had a broad forehead and kind eyes, and his eyes were sincere and gentle. This meant that he was a good person with a sincere character.

But when she looked at the aura around the village chief, she realized that it was a mix of black and white. This was the first time she had seen such a thing.

The aura she was referring to was what humans had. There were several types of human aura: gold, white, gray, and black. Gold was for good people with merit, while white was for ordinary people who had never taken a human life. As for gray, it was like that case of the girl getting into the wrong car and being killed. At that time, the aura around the driver of the car was gray, which meant that although this person had never killed anyone before, he was one step away from doing so. This kind of person was quite dangerous.

As for the black aura around a person, it meant that they had killed someone before. At that moment, the black and white aura around this mountain village was very strange. Chi Shuyan frowned. She racked her brain for a long time, but couldn’t figure out what was going on.

Since she couldn’t figure it out for the time being, Chi Shuyan didn’t dwell on it. She looked away as calmly as possible. They sat with the village chief for a while and answered some ordinary questions before they got up and left.

The village chief of Dashan Village even specially saw them off, but he repeatedly expounded on the village rules. “The people of our village are especially simple and friendly. As long as you don’t violate our village rules, we welcome you to stay for as long as you want!”

After that, the village chief turned around and returned to the living room.

Feng Yuanlin, Xiao Shan, and Wu Haoming wanted to say something, but hesitated. They had something to ask Shuyan, but now wasn’t the right time.

After confirming that the village chief couldn’t hear them, Feng Yuanlin couldn’t help but look at Shuyan and ask, “Shuyan, what do you think of this village chief?”

Although Chi Shuyan couldn’t see through the black and white aura around the village chief, she was certain that he had most likely taken a human life. She was about to speak, when Ruan Shenglin’s anxious and excited voice rang out not far away. “Master Chi, is that you?”
