1PIAADITSB Chapter 26

After watching the interview video for a full two hours, Song Yang finally finished it after several days.

Overall, the program featuring Professor Chen Feng promoted ambiguous viewpoints.

It didn’t necessarily showcase theological concepts like “souls,” “ghosts,” or “exorcism,” but rather used the authority of Professor Chen, a Nobel Prize winner, to present sufficiently theological viewpoints.

Then, it used the psychic abilities of a medium to validate these viewpoints.

However, the ambiguity lay in the fact that the professor’s views were fiercely dissented by orthodox scholars, perfectly aligning with mainstream perspectives.

At the same time, the exorcism process wasn’t demonstrated publicly.

Yet, it left enough room for imagination.

It must be said that the director of this episode of “Approaching Science” deeply understood the ways of the world.

However, even so, the entire program didn’t widely circulate among the public, indicating that it was still suppressed.

‘Nevertheless, the viewpoints proposed by the professor were quite novel.’

Song Yang was a firm believer in materialism.

——After obtaining the Detective System.

After acquiring the system, even if ghosts really existed in this world, he could have a 50% chance of believing it.

Therefore, he didn’t completely disbelieve the professor’s viewpoints, nor did he completely believe them.

‘The professor raised several viewpoints on the program:

First, dark matter manifests as souls, and even if not souls, it is the substance that constitutes souls.

Second, souls do exist.

Third, on the premise that souls exist, ghosts arise accordingly and exist in the world. The ghost face photo at Feng Zhizhi’s temple proves this.

Fourth, souls can undergo astral projection.

Fifth, souls should be scientifically proven.’

Writing these points down in a notebook, Song Yang connected the second, third, fourth, and fifth points.

‘So, in other words, the professor has mastered some experimental results regarding souls.’

‘In this case, a motive for his death emerges: someone wanted these research results.’

Song Yang frowned slightly: “Did the killer get them? Was it the man in the wedding dress? Was the killer who killed the professor Feng Zhizhi?”

‘A daughter killing her father? Patricide? Something doesn’t feel right.’

Song Yang couldn’t help but rewind the video to the part where the professor showed the photo of his daughter worshiping gods, carefully looking at Feng Zhizhi in it.

‘Wait a minute, what’s that?’

He took a screenshot and zoomed in on the photo.

At Feng Zhizhi’s wrist, there was indeed something, but because the captured photo wasn’t clear, he couldn’t see it clearly at all.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, took out his phone, and carefully examined the surviving photos of Feng Zhizhi that Mu Wanqing had given him.

‘KEY? Is this real?’

Comparing the two photos, Song Yang could basically confirm that the tattoo on Feng Zhizhi’s wrist, that strange pattern, looked very much like the letters “KEY” combined.

So, what the reporter said was true?

Song Yang rubbed his temples. If what Jiang Ge said was true, it meant that Feng Zhizhi was still alive.

‘But that’s not right, Feng Zhizhi’s head appeared at the professor’s death scene, didn’t it?’

‘Could it be that Feng Zhizhi killed the professor first, and then someone else killed Feng Zhizhi?’

Currently, only this explanation made sense and was logically sound.

‘Complicated, things are getting more and more complicated. The man in the wedding dress and the sacrificial man wearing the Mamian Skirt don’t seem to be in the same group.’

‘Besides this, there was a third party at the murder scene. No, I need to “enact” Feng Zhizhi’s head to see clearly who killed her.’

Song Yang inexplicably felt a chill in his heart, and goosebumps covered his body.

Too many mysteries awaited him to solve.

After resting for a while, Song Yang was about to get out of bed to sleep when he heard a knock on the door, which he found strange, and then his phone rang.

Looking at the number, he realized it was Mu Wanqing, so he answered it, only to hear her ask him to open the door.

Song Yang was stunned for a moment before realizing that the person knocking on the door was Mu Wanqing.

He was puzzled but still opened the door to let her in.

Before he could ask her, Mu Wanqing took the initiative to say, “You came to Tongjia Town to look for Xiaozhi.”

Song Yang was filled with question marks.

She blushed and quickly said, “Today you came to Tongjia Town, and with the help of your divination, I successfully found Xiaozhi’s residence.”

“I asked the surrounding residents, and they said that a man has always lived there.”

“When I tried to show them Xiaozhi’s photo, they said they didn’t recognize her, but when I showed them the professor’s photo, they said it was him. And his name isn’t Chen Feng, but Wang Xuan.”

“But my divination can’t be wrong, so the most likely explanation is that Xiaozhi is the professor.”

Mu Wanqing stated a hypothesis that Song Yang couldn’t accept at all.

He retorted with a chuckle, “Mu Wanqing, are you joking? Feng Zhizhi and the professor are the same person? Don’t you think this hypothesis is simply absurd?”

“Officer Song, please, you must believe me, you won’t lie to me,” she replied seriously.

“Wanqing, think carefully about what you just said, is it possible? Feng Zhizhi and Professor Chen Feng are completely different people, even of different genders, how could they be the same person?”

“No. Knowing about Xiaozhi makes me flustered, but I must pull myself together and not overthink things. I should go to bed early. Going to school tomorrow and skipping classes all the time isn’t a solution.”

Song Yang really didn’t want to pierce the last layer of defense in her heart. He knew that when many people learn of a cruel truth, they are unable to accept it for a while, so they trigger the brain’s protection mechanism to create a plausible possibility.

In other words, it’s self-comfort.

“Officer Song, don’t you believe me?” Mu Wanqing stared at him, unusually not blushing: “What I said is true.”

“Okay, okay, I said it was fake, it was fake. But remind me, even if they are the same person, what does that mean?”

“Don’t you understand?” the female student questioned.

“Understand what? Feng Zhizhi and the professor are the same person, which means——”

Song Yang’s brow furrowed abruptly.

At the same time, goosebumps rose on his body again.

If Feng Zhizhi and the professor were really the same person? Then that means the head of Feng Zhizhi at the death scene was the professor’s head?

——Terrifying to think about!

Although Song Yang didn’t want to think that way, his mind couldn’t stop.

If this were the case, then it would make sense that the Investigation Bureau had been unable to find the professor’s head.

From beginning to end, the professor’s head was at the scene and had not been taken away.

But, was this possible?

“That’s impossible.” Song Yang shook his head again in denial, “Before the professor died, he wrote the death message “KEY,” indicating that the killer was KEY, and on Feng Zhizhi’s scalp, there was also this death message.”

“If they are the same person, then the only thing the professor is saying is that he is mentally disabled.”

“But is the professor mentally disabled? Obviously not!”
