Chapter 108 Special Event?

At the same time, he also felt tired. The continuous identification along the way had consumed a huge amount of his spiritual energy. He needed to restore his spiritual energy before he could continue the identification.

Wang Xiaoming rubbed his brows and said calmly: "Let's find a place to rest for a while!"

Hou Cuijiao quickly said, "There happens to be a coffee shop inside. Shall we go sit there for a while?"

Cao Yang had already felt tired, mentally exhausted, having been walking around the various exhibition halls in the museum, feeling bored and tedious. When he heard that he could take a break, he naturally clapped his hands in approval: "Great! I just happen to be feeling a little thirsty."

Wang Xiaoming naturally had no reason to refuse. For him, it didn't matter where he rested.

After agreeing, the three of them came to the cafe inside the museum. The environment here was surprisingly good and there were not too many people. After they found an empty seat, they each ordered a cup of coffee.

After sitting down, Wang Xiaoming told Hou Cuijiao and Cao Yang that he needed to close his eyes and rest, and not to disturb him unless there was something special.

By the time Wang Xiaoming felt his spirituality had fully recovered and came out of meditation, nearly an hour had passed.

Cao Yang was the first to notice and asked, "Professor, have you rested?"

"Okay, how are you guys? It's been quite hard following me all the way." Wang Xiaoming asked, looking at the two of them.

"I'm fine." Cao Yang said lazily, leaning back in his chair.

"That's fine with me too." Hou Cuijiao nodded immediately.

Wang Xiaoming looked down at the time. It was already past three o'clock. There was still time before the museum closed, so he could look for some cultural relics related to the supernatural.

He reached out and picked up the coffee on the table, ready to drink it before going around the exhibition hall again.

Unexpected——

"professor!"

Hou Cuijiao said hurriedly: "This coffee is cold, let the waiter change it for you!"

As she spoke, she took the coffee cup from Wang Xiaoming, but as soon as she received it, she found that the coffee cup was hot.

"How is this possible?" Hou Cuijiao asked in surprise.

This is incredible. The coffee has been here for almost an hour and it is still warm.

"Nothing is impossible. Have you forgotten what happened to us last time?" Wang Xiaoming stood up and said calmly, "There are things in this world that cannot be explained by science."

It was not until they returned to the exhibition area that Hou Cuijiao gradually accepted that Professor Wang was a person with special abilities and that this world was really different.

Wang Xiaoming had no idea about Hou Cuijiao's psychological changes. He simply used spiritual friction to generate heat to heat up the coffee. He was too lazy to explain and attributed the reason to the supernatural events he encountered that day.

After returning to the exhibition hall, Wang Xiaoming started the identification and search again. Before he knew it, it was five o'clock in the afternoon, which was the closing time.

Wang Xiaoming finally discovered two supernatural and ineffective cultural relics in the Three Kingdoms area and the Qin and Han Dynasty area, both of which were discovered in the time period he inferred.

This trip to the museum was very fruitful. Not only did I digest a small portion of the potion, but I also found four ineffective supernatural objects.

When I walked out of the Renguo Museum, it was still bright outside.

Just as Wang Xiaoming was about to say goodbye to Hou Cuijiao, he heard her say mysteriously:
"Professor Wang, there is something I need to ask you."

"You say!" Wang Xiaoming said with some surprise.

"Didn't you ask me before if there were any strange incidents in the Ming Tombs?" Hou Cuijiao brushed her hair and continued, "There have been strange things happening there every night these past few days." "What strange things?"

Wang Xiaoming became interested and asked, "Can you tell me more about it?"

Hou Cuijiao nodded and recalled: "It should have appeared three days ago. At that time, the security guard of the cemetery reported that someone was wandering around the cemetery with a flashlight at night, but when he approached to check, the person disappeared."

Cao Yang listened to the story and said, "Based on this alone, it shouldn't be that strange, right? It's very likely that he was a thief or something like that?"

"Of course we knew about it, but for the next two nights, security guards saw a figure wandering around the cemetery with a flashlight. But as soon as the person approached, the flashlight went out and the figure disappeared."

Hou Cuijiao continued: "When they found it again, the figure had appeared in another direction of the cemetery and was seen by other security guards. Now everyone thinks the cemetery is haunted."

"Did you call the police?" Wang Xiaoming asked.

Hou Cuijiao nodded and said, "We've called the police, but they haven't been able to catch anyone."

"Since we've already called the police, there's no need to worry." Wang Xiaoming said, "If it's really a special case, the police will report it if they can't handle it, and then there will be specialized personnel to handle it."

"That's good."

After listening to Wang Xiaoming's explanation, Hou Cuijiao felt relieved: "Professor, do you think this is a special incident?"

Wang Xiaoming pondered and said, "There is too little information to tell. Has anyone gone missing recently? Or died unexpectedly?"

"No."

"Generally speaking, special events are accompanied by death, and there are no deaths in your area at the moment. It is very likely a prank by humans."

"but,"

Wang Xiaoming changed the subject, "We can't rule out the possibility that it's a special incident. Don't go to the Ming Tombs in the next few days. When I get back, I'll have someone check there and solve the problem."

Amid Hou Cuijiao's thanks, Wang Xiaoming got into the headquarters' car. The driver was waiting nearby for orders.

On the way back, Cao Yang was curious: "Professor, when did you and Hou Cuijiao meet?"

Wang Xiaoming leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and asked calmly, "What? Are you investigating me?"

"You are kidding, professor. How dare I investigate you?" Cao Yang waved his hands repeatedly and said, "I just think that Hou Cuijiao is a little bit different from you."

"Why is it unusual?"

"She must have taken a fancy to you. When we were in the cafe, I noticed Hou Cuijiao sneaking glances at you from time to time." Cao Yang said confidently.

As he spoke, he looked at Wang Xiaoming, hoping to see some changes, but to his disappointment, Wang Xiaoming still had a dull expression.

Ever since he took control of the leaf ghost, Wang Xiaoming has become very sensitive to sight. He can sense it as long as someone looks at him. He naturally felt Hou Cuijiao's peeking at him, so he was not surprised.

Cao Yang's chattering made Wang Xiaoming miss Li Jun a little. At least when Li Jun was around, even if he had questions, Li Jun rarely asked.

Thinking of what he had just promised Hou Cuijiao, Wang Xiaoming called Zhao Jianguo in the car, told him about the Ming Tombs, and asked him to arrange for a ghost handler to deal with it today.

At the same time, he asked him to contact the museum staff with the four ineffective supernatural creations he had noted down during the day and send the four artifacts to the headquarters.

When they returned to the headquarters, it was already past six o'clock and it was getting late. As soon as Cao Yang got off the car, he was called away by Zhao Jianguo. Wang Xiaoming ate dinner by himself and returned to his residence to start a day of study.
