Chapter 31: Searching for Scavenging Demons

A day later, sporting dark circles and messy hair, Wen Wen saw Zhu Qipei again.

"Have you done all I asked you to do?" asked Zhu Qipei, striding up to Wen Wen and grabbing his hand.

"I've prepared everything you wanted," Wen Wen said impassively, for he was a detective devoid of emotion.

"I'll check it first, and if there's no issue, I'll give you the clue," Zhu Qipei said in some disarray, taking the USB drive and hurrying to another compartment, where he locked the door and found a computer to play it.

After a long time, a visibly relaxed Zhu Qipei returned to the room.

"In the old city district to the north of Furong River City, there's a Scavenging Demon. I was attacked by a deranged Scavenging Demon while I was on an errand there a while back," he said.

"Scavenging Demons usually hide themselves well, sustaining off rotting meat discarded by humans in the sewers, but sometimes they do attack humans. I'm not clear, however, why it chose to attack me."
