Shen Siyuan took out his Mobile Phone, preparing to Call the Police, but quickly put it down.
Mobile Phones these days all required real-name registration; it would be easy to trace the call back to him.
Although he wasn't the murderer, there was no way he could explain to the Police how he found the body in the Unfinished Building. It would only cause unnecessary trouble.
By now, Doudou and Yin Xingyue had returned and were sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at Shen Siyuan with expectant eyes.
After a moment of thought, he turned his gaze to Yin Xingyue.
"Xiaoyue, I'll have to ask you to make a trip," Shen Siyuan said.
Before Yin Xingyue could speak, Doudou jumped up, puffed out her little chest, and said eagerly, "I… I can help!"
"You should just stay home with me," Shen Siyuan said, speechless.
"Brother, where do I need to go?" Yin Xingyue asked softly.
"Go to the Police Station near the Unfinished Building, then Manifest Form and tell them you found a body there," Shen Siyuan instructed.
Yin Xingyue nodded upon hearing this, then looked down at the faint, ghostly blue glow on her body.
She was much better than Doudou; in just two days, she had mostly learned to control the Netherfire within her.
Unlike Doudou, whose Netherfire was still flaring up from the top of her head.
"It's fine. You have it under good control. Unless someone looks closely, they won't notice anything unusual about you."
Shen Siyuan naturally understood what she meant.
The Little Girl was quite cautious.
"Then, Brother, I'm going," Yin Xingyue said, standing up.
"Go on," Shen Siyuan said.
Hearing this, Yin Xingyue was about to summon the Yin Wind to leave when something occurred to her.
She turned back and asked, "Brother, will you still be here?"
Shen Siyuan was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.
"Of course, I will."
Only then did Yin Xingyue ride the Yin Wind and depart.
Due to her past experiences, Yin Xingyue had an extremely introverted personality and rarely initiated conversations. It was only because Shen Siyuan was her Banner Master that she felt close to him and would speak so much.

Yuxiu Police Station was one of the most ordinary police stations in the West District, with nothing special about it.
The matters they handled daily were all trivial.
However, the area they were responsible for was quite large. The entire station, including the Station Chief, had twelve people, and that didn't even include the Auxiliary Police.
Jiang Xiyue was a very ordinary Civil Police Officer at Yuxiu Police Station. Her main job was Traffic Control and Patrol Duty, responsible for managing traffic flow, patrol tasks, and handling Traffic Accidents.
Among Female Police Officers, this was considered a rather arduous job, as most were engaged in Internal Affairs Work, Community Policing, or Household Registration Management.
The reason Jiang Xiyue worked in Traffic Control and was on patrol wasn't that the station didn't look out for her or was ostracizing her; it was entirely her own request.
She loved the feeling of riding her Motorcycle with the breeze on her face. She loved weaving through streets and alleys on her bike.
Though she was a girl, she was naturally active and fundamentally disliked staying Inside the House.
Yuxiu Police Station covered a considerable area and had a courtyard in front, where several Police Cars and Private Vehicles were parked.
Jiang Xiyue rode her bike into the courtyard and saw a Little Girl loitering at the station entrance from a distance, so she rode her Motorcycle directly over.
Seeing the Little Girl looking delicate and timid, Jiang Xiyue's voice subconsciously softened.
"Little Sister, is there something you need?"
When Yin Xingyue saw it was a Female Police Officer, she felt a great sense of relief.
She opened her mouth and said, "Police Uncle…"
"I'm not an uncle, I'm an elder sister. Take your time and tell me what's wrong."
Jiang Xiyue turned off her Motorcycle's engine but didn't get off.
Instead, she remained straddling the bike, reached up to take off her Helmet, revealing Ear-length Short Hair that made her look exceptionally heroic and dashing.
Jiang Xiyue didn't invite Yin Xingyue inside the station to talk because she noticed that when the Little Girl spoke to her, she couldn't maintain eye contact, her shoulders were hunched, and her body was unconsciously turned toward the courtyard exit…
These were all signs of timidity and wariness, so she was afraid that her actions might cause the Little Girl psychological stress.
This just went to show how much courage it must have taken for her to approach Shen Siyuan in the first place.
"In that… that Unfinished Building, in the semi-circular building in the very middle, on the fifth floor, there's a dead person.
A woman died there, she was… was killed there…" Yin Xingyue stuttered at first, but her words grew smoother as she spoke.
"What?"
Jiang Xiyue thought she had misheard, her expression one of shock.
Seeing her reaction, Yin Xingyue instinctively took a few steps back.
Noticing this, Jiang Xiyue quickly said, "Is what you're saying true?"
Yin Xingyue nodded, then pointed in a direction outside the courtyard.
"It's right over there. You… you can go see for yourself."
After saying this, she started walking out of the courtyard."Wait, hold on."
Jiang Xiyue hurriedly tried to call her back, but the other girl paid her no mind.
So she hesitated, wondering whether to get off the bike or ride after her, but ultimately, she chose to get off and steady her Motorcycle.
But in that brief delay, by the time she chased after her out of the courtyard, she found the Little Girl had already vanished.
She looked left and right down the road. The street in front of the Police Station was straight, and you could see all the way to the end, yet she still couldn't see a soul.
Jiang Xiyue couldn't help but be surprised.
"She's that fast?"
She faintly felt that something wasn't right.
"Xiao Jiang, Xiao Jiang, why are you blocking the gate with your Motorcycle?"
Just then, a middle-aged policeman walked out of the station; it was Jiang Xiyue's Shifu, Lin Guoliang.
"Shifu, I just met a little girl who came to Call the Police."
The reason Jiang Xiyue called him Shifu was that he was the one who had shown her the ropes when she first joined the Police Station, so the two naturally had a good relationship.
"Where's the little girl?" Lin Guoliang asked, walking down the Steps.
"She vanished in the blink of an eye. I was just wondering about it."
"Did she say what it was about?"
"She said there's a dead person in the Unfinished Building up ahead, a woman was killed there," Jiang Xiyue said.
"What?"
Lin Guoliang's eyes widened in disbelief. A death was a Major Case.
"The little girl couldn't be making a False Police Report, could she?" Lin Guoliang added.But before Jiang Xiyue could respond, he immediately muttered to himself, "Whether it's true or not, we should go take a look."
Jiang Xiyue, who was about to push her Motorcycle to the side, heard this and quickly said, "I'll go with you."
"Let's go."
Lin Guoliang strode toward his own vehicle—an Electric Bike.
Not all police officers were Iron Cavalry who knew how to ride motorcycles.
The distance wasn't great.
In about ten minutes, the two arrived near the Unfinished Building, but the area was completely fenced off, making it impossible to enter. They circled around it once before finding an entrance that had been pried open.
So the two of them parked their vehicles to the side and slipped through the opening.
As soon as they entered, Jiang Xiyue began to curiously survey the Unfinished Building, while Lin Guoliang took out his Mobile Phone and carefully photographed the area around the opening.
