Atlas of Heaven and Man

Chen Chuan heard the name of the Blood Scar Gang, glanced around the living room, and asked, "What's it about?"

Ren Shu said, "It's about the previous commission concerning the Skull-splitting Demon. The letter was sent before Expert Chen returned. We made excuses that Expert Chen was not here. Now that they heard you're back, they sent someone again."

He added, "However, this time it's not in the name of the gang, but in the name of the Migratory Bird Company."

Chen Chuan knew that Migratory Bird Company was one of the many companies opened by the Blood Scar Gang, just a facade, but this facade made it look better on the surface.

He thought for a moment and said, "I don't have time right now. The things in the last letter were not clear. Let them send the specific details over, and I'll talk about it after I've read it."

Ren Shu said, "Okay, I'll reply to them like that."

After he hung up the phone, he went back to talk to his aunt's family. However, it was only after lunch when Ren Shu called again, saying, "Expert Chen, the Blood Scar Gang has already sent the things over. This time, they said they want to talk to you in person…"

So fast?

Chen Chuan's mind raced. It seemed that the Blood Scar Gang was indeed very anxious, but he didn't want to run around for this matter on his day off, so he said, "Just say I'm busy and arrange a time for tonight."

Ren Shu said, "Okay, I'll have Little Wei pick you up then."

Chen Chuan stayed at his aunt's house all afternoon. After dinner, he made a phone call to confirm, washed up, changed his clothes, and then went out.

This time, in addition to bringing the Snow Monarch Saber, he also had a bag in his hand, which contained the box of Tayana Spiders. Because this thing was not big and highly dangerous, it was not left in the school but carried with him.

When he arrived at the back of the alley, the driver Little Wei had already driven the car to the entrance. He got in directly, and the car started smoothly, driving all the way to the company.

Ren Shu had been waiting for him. Seeing him arrive, he came out to greet him and said, "Expert Chen, the person is still waiting here, has been sitting for an afternoon."

Chen Chuan said, "That's very patient."

Ren Shu said, "We are a legitimate company. Even if it's the Blood Scar Gang, since they are talking to us in the capacity of a company, they must abide by the rules between companies."

Chen Chuan said, "Let's do it now."

Ren Shu said "Okay" and gestured. A staff member went to invite the person, while he led Chen Chuan directly to the reception hall of the No. 3 Building.

He said, "An elevator is being installed now, so Expert Chen won't have to run up and down every time."

Chen Chuan nodded. He knew what Ren Shu meant, always trying to provide him with better conditions. Because of this, he also gave the company more in return. He said, "The company's current environment is good."

When they arrived at the reception hall, the two sat for a while and heard someone outside say, "Mr. Li, this way please."

A moment later, a tall, thin man walked out. This person didn't look like a gang member at all on the surface. His clothes were no different from those of other senior company employees.

After entering, he introduced himself to the two, saying that he was Li Hui, a senior manager of Migratory Bird Company, and then greeted the two warmly and politely.

After saying some complimentary and polite words, the two sides sat down, and Manager Li tried to ask, "I wonder if Expert Chen has time to listen to me explain the situation?"

Chen Chuan said, "That's why I asked Manager Li to come here."

"Good, good."

Manager Li took the briefcase in his hand, placed it on the table, took out a stack of materials from it, and sent it to Ren Shu and Chen Chuan, saying, "This is the information our company sent at Expert Chen's request."

Chen Chuan took it over. While flipping through it, Manager Li said again, "Please allow me to briefly say that three respected gentlemen in the Blood Scar Gang have died, which is really regrettable."

Chen Chuan remained noncommittal, flipping through the materials. Before, he had only seen written descriptions, but now he saw very intuitive photos.

When these three people died, their skulls were split open to both sides, and the separation was exaggerated. At a glance, all the things inside were gone. This made him think of the two halves of watermelon that had been eaten clean with a spoon in the afternoon.

Just looking at the photos, he seemed to feel that the eater at that time carefully peeled the flesh and carefully separated it. Not only did they eat the main brain tissue, but they also licked the internal residue clean, leaving nothing behind. There were no blood stains around, only an empty skull.

Ren Shu next to him only glanced at the photos a few times and felt unbearable, a burst of nausea coming up, and could only cover his mouth with a handkerchief.

Manager Li said there, "We have repeatedly investigated and asked people to come and see, but we have not been able to find any clues. They just slept on their own beds and had their brains broken, so we can basically determine that this should really be the work of the Skull-splitting Demon."

Chen Chuan looked at the specific investigation records below. All the deceased died suddenly. For example, one of them was talking to his wife on the bed, and then there was no sound.

The wife was very dissatisfied, and when she turned around, she found a split head and an empty skull, so she fainted on the spot. After waking up, she experienced it again, and later had some mental problems.

There was another one. Perhaps the family didn't care much about him. In the morning, his lover got up, dressed carefully, said hello, and went out, completely unaware that the person in bed had been eaten his head. It wasn't until evening when the person was still lying there that she found something was wrong. By then, it had been cold for a day.

Only the last person was found in the gang's office, and there were no traces of outsiders breaking in at the scene.

He said to Manager Li at this time, "The Skull-splitting Demon has appeared in Yangzhi City for a long time, but it has never been resolved, so I have to study it first before deciding whether to accept this commission."

"Good, good."

Manager Li was very good at discerning expressions. Now the only hope was in Chen Chuan. It was already good that the other party was willing to check. He didn't dare to put on a show. He stood up and said, "Then I won't disturb Expert Chen. If Expert Chen has any discoveries, please be sure to notify us."

He took out a business card, put it on the table, greeted the two, and left very knowingly.

Chen Chuan waited for Ren Shu to send the person away and come back, then asked, "Mr. Ren, have other places in the company reported similar situations?"

Ren Shu thought for a while and said, "We recently obtained a batch of information from the Political Affairs Hall, and we have not seen similar reports, but I don't know if there are any that have not been reported. However, I have already asked people to sort out all the past reports about the Skull-splitting Demon. Does Expert Chen want to see them now?"

Chen Chuan said, "Okay, bring them all over."

After the staff brought these files over, he took away some that were obviously deliberately used to confuse the public, and some that were too old, leaving only the more valuable ones.

After reading it, he found that these situations were exactly the same as what he had seen in the previous photos, but this could not be really confirmed unless he went to the scene to take a look, but seeing that the corpses above had been buried, there was no need to do more things, only to wait for the Skull-splitting Demon to appear next time to see if there was a chance.

Because there was nothing else here, he didn't stay in the company for long, and took a car directly back to the school. On the way, he was also thinking, why is the Skull-splitting Demon only targeting the Blood Scar Gang this time? Is it because the Blood Scar Gang has done something? Or is there any other reason?

While thinking, he suddenly reacted, stretched out his hand, and steadily caught a crossbow bolt shot from outside the car window.

However, looking at the direction, this crossbow bolt would not have hit him, and if he judged correctly, it should have hit the car door next to him and then nailed there.

He glanced over and saw a figure on the roof across the road disappear.

He withdrew his gaze and saw a small note wrapped around the crossbow bolt.

This person obviously had good skills, because even if there was a little extra thing on the arrow shaft, it might interfere with the arrow shot out. Being able to accurately shoot the arrow into the car window of a moving car from a distance of more than 30 meters, and also ensure that it does not hurt the people inside, this archery level is very high.

He took the note from it, opened it and saw a sentence written in blood, "It's none of your business, stay away."

He was thoughtful, it should be about the Blood Scar Gang's affair, it seems this is a warning.

Who could it be? The Iron Chain Gang?

On the surface, the Iron Chain Gang was the most likely to do this, but he had also been in contact with people from the Iron Chain Gang, but he always felt that this style was somewhat inconsistent with the temperament of the Iron Chain Gang.

He said to the driver Little Wei, "Master Little Wei, stop the car ahead."

The driver Little Wei said, "Okay, Expert Chen."

After the car stopped, Chen Chuan got out of the car, tidied up his clothes, went to a secluded place, took out the box from the briefcase, and tapped on it with his finger, "I need you to lead the way."

On the other side, the figure who shot the crossbow bolt jumped off the roof, ran through the secluded alley, and after half an hour, came to a remote small building.

There were several young people inside. Seeing him come in, they asked, "Brother Xin, how was it?"

The person took off the headgear, revealing a young face, and took a few breaths, saying, "I have already warned that expert, I just don't know if he will continue to help the Blood Scar Gang." When he said Blood Scar Gang, a look of hatred appeared in his eyes.

A young man standing in the corner who hadn't come over said, "There have been so many legends about the Skull-splitting Demon for so many years, and no one can solve it. I don't think it's necessary to go to the trouble."

Brother Xin said seriously, "I have told you, that expert is very powerful. Even the previous Flying Head Sect was solved by him, so he may also be able to solve the Skull-splitting Demon."

The young man still disagreed, "Such a powerful person, will be scared by your crossbow bolt? I don't think so."

"We always have to try."

The young man said, "What we need is not scaring people, but more good weapons. For example, this expert, wouldn't it be fine to just kill him directly? Why bother with that effort?"

Brother Xin said in a deep voice, "There will be, I have already contacted, and when we get it, none of us will be afraid."
