Detective Ghost Empress

While he was speaking, he suddenly felt someone chop him in the back of his neck, a bit surprised he turned to look at the person who was behind him.

" You…." And when he saw that the one who smacked him in the back of his neck was none other than Li Gang, he was stunned to the point where his eyes ended up rolling in their sockets on their own.

How come a ghost was able to touch him? Much less hit him?

Zhai Tianyu did not get a chance to ask the questions which were churning in his head because a second later he fell on the ground and then turned unconscious.

" Why did you do that?" Seeing Li Gang hit Zhai Tianyu like that, Jia Li could not help but ask, of course, he was in the wrong for entering the wrong place at the wrong time but there was no need for Li Gang to act so ruthlessly, right?

" We don\'t have the time to bother with him," Li Gang retorted without the slightest bit of hesitation as he turned to walk towards Liu Hui Ying while smacking the dust on his hands as he tilted his head and then asked, " I did a good job, did I not?"

Liu Hui Ying did not say anything to him instead she turned to look at Grandma Lan Fen and then said, " Hurry, if he wakes up then we would have to explain a bunch of things to him and I am not in the mood to do so," as she spoke she looked at Zhai Tianyu who was lying on the floor and then turned her gaze away in a jiffy.

Don\'t blame her for being ruthless and selfish but the more she stayed in this world, the more she realised that she needed to keep a few cards to herself or else, she might lose her life without knowing where she went wrong.

Therefore, she hurried Grandma Lan Fen to create two masks which looked a lot similar to the faces of the two maids who were now lying unconscious in the tent.

Grandma Lan Fen also did not waste another minute as she went straight to work and then created two masks which looked quite similar to the faces of those two maids.

She raised the long machine which was white and quite similar to that of a printer in the human world but instead of printing papers, when Grandma Lan Fen instilled her yin energy and when she lifted the lid of that machine, two human-like masks were lying on the glowing glass pane which was lit up with a white light which was lit up underneath the glass pane.

" They are done," Grandma Lan Fen announced as she turned to look at Liu Hui Ying who nodded and then went towards the machine where she picked up the human masks which were sitting and then carefully ran her fingers on the human skin mask which she was holding in her hands.

" These might be useful, you have done a great job," Liu Hui Ying was not at all shy with the praise as she turned to look at Grandma Lan Fen who beamed happily upon receiving the praise which was hard to come by, especially from someone like Liu Hui Ying.

Though Grandma Lan Fen did not stay happy for so long as Liu Hui Ying raised a brow and said in a slightly disdainful voice, " What are you waiting for now? New year? Summon your space back before that idiot wakes up and starts asking questions that we cannot answer."

" I will summon it back right away!" Grandma Lan Fen sighed sure enough Liu Hui Ying\'s praise went just as fast as it came.

She summoned her space back and the tent which was morphed into a white room soon turned back to its original condition and just as it turned back to its original condition, and no sooner did the tent turned back to its original condition, Liu Hui Ying turned to look at Li Gang before opening her mouth as she said, " Go and have him lie on the bed, make it look like he fell asleep."

Though she knew that she might not be able to muddle her way through the things but as long as she insisted that he fell on the ground after slipping and was just dreaming of the entire thing, Liu Hui Ying was certain that she will be able to escape the responsibility of answering those questions.

" Got it," Li Gang shot a triumphant look at Jia Li who narrowed her eyes and then looked away, while Li Gang went over to where Zhai Tianyu was lying and then, he crouched down and then entered Zhai Tianyu\'s body and soon he was standing tall wearing Zhai Tianyu\'s skin. Literally.

With his shoulders rolling back he looked at Liu Hui Ying and then said with a smile, "  This feels much better, don\'t you think so?" He then turned around as if he was showing off his new dress to Liu Hui Ying who rolled her eyes and then said, "On the bed. Now!"

" I know, I know…why are you so strict?" Li Gang\'s shoulders drooped as he trudged towards the bed where he lied down and then reappeared after leaving Zhai Tianyu\'s body behind.

Though he followed Liu Hui Ying\'s orders, he looked a bit reluctant as he walked towards Liu Hui Ying who was standing straight at the centre of the tent with two masks in her hands.

" Why did you ask for two masks though?" Jia Li could not help but ask as she dropped her gaze to the two masks which were dangling in Liu Hui Ying\'s hands.

Liu Hui Ying did not answer instead she turned to look at Jia Li and then said, " Do you think I will be willing to carry those buckets? Someone naturally has to do it for me."

As she spoke, she threw one of the masks at the ghosts. " Go and get Xiao Ai, I am sure that she is rather free at the moment."

If possible Liu Hui Ying would have instead chosen to use an invisibility talisman but under the extreme shortage of money, she did not have much yellow paper left with her!

To think that she, the top detective in her country would one day have to rely on something like this!  When did she have to rely on human masks other than when she was being undercover?

Li Gang raised his head suddenly looking a bit perked up but then Jia Li glared at him and snapped, "What are you smiling for? I am the one who is going to possess that girl, you stay back." And before Li Gang could say anything, Jia Li floated out of the tent and very soon returned with a very dazed-looking Xiao Ai who was walking towards Liu Hui Ying as if she was sleepwalking.

"Let\'s go if you are ready," said Liu Hui Ying as she pulled the mask which she was holding in her hand over her head. As the mask skipped Liu Hui Ying\'s face, her entire appearance changed as she turned into a middle-aged old lady whose back was slouching slightly.

Jia Li on the other hand was looking at her appearance which was of a young woman and looked up at Liu Hui Ying with a deadpanned expression and then said, " You..deliberately did this right? You gave me the mask of the young woman such that I will be the one who will carry those heavy buckets right?"

" If you know then why are you even asking?" Liu Hui Ying raised a brow and even though she was looking old and weary, her aura wasn\'t at all diminished if anything she made even the elderly woman look like a general who won a war.

Jia Li rolled her eyes and then went to pick up the two buckets while Liu Hui Ying, being the boss only made an effort to pick up the tongs which were dangling on the side of the bucket.

Seeing this Jia Li shot a white look at Liu Hui Ying before she huffed and asked in a tired voice, " Where to?"

Liu Hui Ying turned to walk out of the tent, as she stepped out of the tent, her gaze narrowed on a man whose expression was rather ugly and said, "Let\'s go and see him first."
