Chapter 1008 - Capturing Chen Afu
Chapter 1008: Capturing Chen Afu
“After learning how to drive, I haven’t driven in several years. I have been in Miao Village. I am still not used to driving…” Zhang Zhishen scratched his head and explained embarrassedly.
“You are fine. You should be proficient in a few days.” Yang Ming nodded. It was almost the same when he was just learning to drive. Everything should have a period of adaptation.
Zhang Zhishen was unfamiliar with the roads, so he was driving rather slow. Yang Ming didn’t urge him. The objective of this trip was for him to recognize the streets. If he drove too fast but couldn’t remember anything, in the end, the effort would be in vain.
The car passed the gate of Song Jiang Industry University and headed for Hua Shang District not far away. At this time, the students in the school had already rested; the residents in the Hua Shang District that stayed near the technology companies had all rested, so the surroundings were tranquil. Except for the passing vehicles, only a few pedestrians walked around.
Suddenly, Zhang Zhishen’s speed slowed down, almost stopping on the road.
“What’s wrong?” asked Yang Ming curiously.
“There is someone nearby!” Zhang Zhishen frowned and whispered.
“Someone? Who?” Yang Ming was somewhat inexplicable after listening. He didn’t know who the someone mentioned by Zhang Zhishen was.
“Someone who knows voodoo.” Zhang Zhishen whispered. “It is rare to meet people who know how to use voodoo in the big city. I didn’t expect to meet one this time.”
After Zhang Zhishen finished, he parked the car in the temporary stop line on the side of the road and quietly observed the surroundings.
“Someone who knows voodoo? Is it related to us?” Yang Ming didn’t really take it seriously, but he felt that Zhang Zhishen was a little too sensitive. As long as the other party was not targeting them, then it wasn’t related to them for the time being.
“I am not sure if it is related to us, but if it appears nearby, we must be careful. We need to figure out who it is. It takes knowing yourself and your enemy to succeed,” said Zhang Zhishen.
Yang Ming didn’t understand either. Since Zhang Zhishen said it was serious, Yang Ming could only sit by the side and observe the situation quietly.
After a long time, Zhang Zhishen didn’t have any movements. Yang Ming was a bit puzzled. He couldn’t help but ask, “Zhishen, is the person who knows voodoo appearing yet?”
“No, I just sense this familiar aura. But, before he releases the voodoo, I can’t judge his exact position,” said Zhang Zhishen.
Yang Ming nodded and no longer asked questions. He just stayed there quietly. To be honest, Yang Ming was very interested in the mysterious thing of voodoo perhaps because of Lan Ling, or the reason that he was cursed by the voodoo.
However, although Yang Ming stayed there, he was not idle. Zhang Zhishen used his senses to search; Yang Ming searched with his special abilities. He searched back and forth a few miles to see if there were any suspicious targets.
When Yang Ming saw a familiar figure, he was shocked! Chen Afu!
That’s right. It’s Chen Afu! He saw Chen Afu hiding behind a display board in the darkness near the bus platform not far away, but it was not obvious. No one would notice someone hiding there if they looked from the outside.
What is he doing coming out in the middle of the night? Yang Ming thought about it. Could it be that he wants to scare people again? Could he be the one who caused the traffic haunting case?
Chen Afu was good at disguising himself as a ghost to scare people. Yang Ming had caught him more than once, so he seemed to have a bad record with Yang Ming. It was just that this traffic haunting case was quite strange. It couldn’t be caused by merely disguising himself as a ghost, so Yang Ming was also very skeptical whether Chen Afu was the ghost.
That day, the scene I encountered with Xia Xue was bizarre. According to the scene where I saw Chen Afu previously, his inferior method of disguise should not have such advanced effects.
But… Zhang Zhishen said that this neighborhood has the aura of the person who knows voodoo, and I only found Chen Afu according to my search… Then, when he related it to the strange scene he encountered with Xia Xue, Yang Ming was shocked abruptly!
Yes, voodoo! It felt like I was being cursed by some sort of witchcraft that day. According to my own body’s reaction, it should be a kind of voodoo. Could it be that the person who used the voodoo was Chen Afu?
This bold idea made Yang Ming very surprised and shocked! It was no wonder that he was Chen Afu’s classmate for three years. Yang Ming knew what kind of character he was. He was the one who bullied the weak and feared the strong. He didn’t have any strength at all, and he was just a follower of Wang Zhitao. Now that he had become a person who knew voodoo, how would Yang Ming not be surprised?
However, this was only a guess. Yang Ming hadn’t verified it yet. Yang Ming also wanted to capture Chen Afu to ask him now, but Zhang Zhishen seemed not to have found his target. Yang Ming didn’t dare to act rashly.
If he made the wrong judgment that Chen Afu wasn’t the one Zhang Zhishen was looking for, wouldn’t he inadvertently alert the enemy? So, Yang Ming decided to wait for a while and see how the situation went.
However, Yang Ming’s eyes were locked on Chen Afu’s body. Yang Ming wanted to see what he was going to do.
It didn’t take long for Chen Afu to move. He saw Chen Afu reach into his pocket to take out a strange round vessel! Yang Ming was astounded immediately! A voodoo vessel! This was an instrument used for keeping the voodoo insects. After Yang Ming was almost killed by voodoo, he went back to study voodoo for a while, so he knew the usage of the item in Chen Afu’s hand at a glance!
“I got it!” When Yang Ming just wanted to say something, Zhang Zhishen also sensed something. He closed his eyes with full attention. He seemed to be sensing something. “Someone is going to use the voodoo, but I am still not sure of his position!”
Yang Ming didn’t doubt it anymore! Although he was baffled how Chen Afu learned voodoo, at the moment he did see Chen Afu take out a vessel for voodoo insects; at the moment Chen Afu took it out, Zhang Zhishen also sensed it!
So, besides Chen Afu, who else could it be?
“Let’s go. Follow me to catch the person!” Yang Ming grabbed Zhang Zhishen and hurriedly commanded, then they dashed in Chen Afu’s direction after stepping out of the car.
Zhang Zhishen didn’t understand who Yang Ming was going to catch, but his job was to protect Yang Ming’s safety. At this moment, he already felt someone was using voodoo nearby, and Yang Ming ran out alone. How could Zhang Zhishen feel at ease? He didn’t bother about tracing the location of the person who used voodoo and followed Yang Ming.
Tonight was the deadline given to Chen Afu by Elder You. If he couldn’t get a dead body, Elder You would kill Chen Afu as a sacrifice to cultivate his voodoo.
Therefore, Chen Afu also didn’t care much, even if the police was patrolling, and even if there was the risk of being caught, he had to commit a crime during such a sensitive period! Chen Afu studied the map of Song Jiang for a long time, and finally, he set the location near the Song Jiang Industry University to commit a crime tonight.
Now the school hadn’t yet started, so pedestrians were particularly rare at night, but some vehicles would pass by occasionally which was just right for him to commit a crime.
But even then, Chen Afu didn’t dare to be sloppy. He stood there for a while to be sure that no police were nearby, and there was no danger before he began to commit the crime.
However, as Chen Afu just took out the voodoo insect powder, he felt the wind sound coming from behind his neck. Chen Afu was shocked and quickly turned back, only to find that someone grabbed his neck!
A man was standing behind him, a man that Chen Afu didn’t want to see even if he were dreaming! That was Yang Ming!
Chen Afu’s face suddenly changed, showing a frightened expression. “You… why are you grabbing me…”
Yang Ming was simply his nemesis! Whenever he met Yang Ming, he would end up badly. From the initial complaint in the class to the trip at the resort later, Chen Afu was extremely unlucky.
“Why am I grabbing you?” Yang Ming smiled coldly and stared at the things in Chen Afu’s hand and, he asked, “You ask why am I grabbing you? What is the thing you’re holding in your hand?”
Yang Ming’s words reminded Chen Afu that the thing in his hand was the voodoo powder made from a particular voodoo insect. If it scattered into the air, the people who came into contact with it would have hallucinations and make some strange behaviors!
Thinking of this, Chen Afu felt relieved. I have this amazing voodoo powder in my hand. Why am I afraid of him? Thinking of this, Chen Afu quickly threw the powder in his hand at Yang Ming.
“Brother Yang, be careful!” Zhang Zhishen saw Chen Afu suddenly made a move, and he quickly screamed and reminded Yang Ming. He was also proficient in voodoo, so after seeing the item in Chen Afu’s hand, he understood that the person he was just looking for was this guy. Although he didn’t know how Yang Ming found this person before him, he only knew that the thing being thrown by Chen Afu was very dangerous, so he quickly reminded Yang Ming.
However, it was already late. Yang Ming had already contacted the voodoo powder that was thrown by Chen Afu. He felt dizzy. A scene appeared in his mind. Yunnan, Miaojiang … A messy scene appeared in front of his own eyes…
However, this was just a moment. Yang Ming’s vision immediately became clear again. He looked at Chen Afu in the blink of an eye, but he saw that Chen Afu had been seized by Zhang Zhishen, and he also snatched the small instrument in Chen Afu’s hand!
