59: Dressed as a woman?

After getting out of the car, Qin Shou immediately hailed a taxi and headed to the Municipal Government building in the City.

Originally, Ren Jing should have finished work by this time, but due to the incident of Qin Shou being hunted, she was now extremely busy, intensifying the deployment of the Blood God Cult's encirclement and suppression operation.

Half an hour later, Qin Shou arrived at the Municipal Government building, at the door of Ren Jing's mayor's office, and he raised his hand to knock on the door.

"Come in!"

Hearing Ren Jing's voice, Qin Shou pushed the door open and walked in, only to see Ren Jing frowning, engrossed in reviewing information about the Blood God Cult.

"You're back. Are you uninjured?"

Seeing Qin Shou enter, Ren Jing put down the documents in her hand and asked with concern.

"I'm fine, nothing happened." Qin Shou shook his head.

"How is the situation progressing? Have you caught the group of people who were after me?"

"No."

Ren Jing shook her head, a little disappointed.

"I have already requested the deployment of all nearby Police forces and set up layers of checkpoints on their possible escape routes, but when our people rushed there, apart from a few scrapped vehicles, nothing was left at the scene, and not even a single living person was captured."

Qin Shou was surprised to hear this: "Nothing at all? How is that possible? Apart from the leader, everyone else in that group had become puppets, and the leader was also seriously injured. There's no way they could have escaped so quickly. How did they manage it?"

"It's not that nothing was left at all. In fact, we found several pools of foul-smsmelling blood at the scene," Ren Jing added.

"Blood?!";

When Qin Shou heard the words "blood," he couldn't help but frown, thinking of a certain possibility.

"Actually, we've come close to capturing core members of the Blood God Cult several times, but each time, just as we were about to succeed, the outcome was the same.

After we rushed to the scene, apart from finding some blood, we couldn't find a single living person, not even a corpse was left, as if they had vanished into thin air."

"This is probably because the bodies have been corroded by the gu worms!"

Qin Shou stated his guess. Although he didn't understand witchcraft, he had read many horror novels. Since Butler Fu had reminded him earlier that the Blood God Cult's methods were likely related to Southeast Asian black magic and gu worms, it was very possible that these people's bodies had been completely devoured by gu worms.

"Butler Fu had the same guess as you. But no matter what, if we can't catch their living members, our leads are completely cut off. Our understanding of the Blood God Cult is still very limited, and we don't even know their specific organizational structure, which makes our subsequent actions very difficult."

Ren Jing sighed, speaking with some helplessness.

"Are there no other leads?"

Qin Shou was a little unwilling. These people had threatened his life safety repeatedly. After his rebirth, Qin Shou's style of doing things had always been: if others don't offend him, he doesn't offend them; if others offend him, he eradicates them.

Now that these people wanted his life, he naturally didn't want to let them go. As the saying goes, it's not thieves you fear, but being constantly targeted by them. With an organization constantly trying to kill you, no one could sleep soundly.

"What? You seem very eager to deal with them!"

Ren Jing looked at Qin Shou with a playful tone.

"Heh heh, these people want to kill me, so do you think I want to deal with them or not?" Qin Shou sneered.

"Actually, we're not completely without leads."

Ren Jing suddenly changed the subject: "I asked the Police to check the abnormal data of various cases in the City recently, and it turns out that in the past few months, the number of missing women cases in the City has sharply increased, and the time when the number of cases increased coincides with when the Blood God Cult began its activities in the City."

"You mean... these increased missing person cases are all related to the Blood God Cult?" Qin Shou immediately guessed the meaning of Ren Jing's words.

Ren Jing nodded: "That's right, and according to the investigation, most of the missing individuals are 'fallen women.'"

"Fallen women?"

Qin Shou's face turned cold at the words, and he grew even more disgusted with this Blood God Cult.

Qin Shou analyzed: "It seems this Blood God Cult is quite clever. They choose targets who are marginalized people living in the gray corners of the City. Most of these fallen women are far from home, have simple social connections, and even if they suddenly disappear, no one will notice for a while."

"That's right, you seem quite clever, and your analysis is very reasonable."

Ren Jing looked at Qin Shou approvingly, then continued: "We've noticed that the area with the most missing girls recently is Fengqing Street in the southern part of the City. It's a place where dragons and fish are mixed, and the population mobility is extremely high, which indeed brings great difficulties to our investigation work. Are you interested in cooperating with the Police? Perhaps you can help us find a breakthrough."

"Cooperation? How will we cooperate? Is there money involved?"

Qin Shou immediately became interested when he heard about the opportunity for cooperation. Such major cases often offer rewards of tens of thousands even for just reporting, let alone deep cooperation.

"You go undercover as a 'fallen woman,' infiltrate Fengqing Street in the southern City, act as bait to deliberately lure the Blood God Cult members, and then we'll seize the opportunity to act and capture them all!"

Ren Jing laid out her plan.

After hearing Ren Jing's plan, Qin Shou raised an eyebrow. He pointed at his face and said, half-laughing, half-crying, "Me? Dress as a woman? Are you kidding me! Look closely, with a face this masculine, where do I look like a woman?!"

"I actually think that after shaving, putting on women's clothes, and makeup, there might be an unexpected effect!"

Ren Jing shrugged, smiling as she stared at Qin Shou, a hint of teasing in her tone.

Qin Shou's face darkened. He felt this idea was utterly ridiculous. He was so handsome and full of masculine charm; make him dress as a woman? He'd rather die.

"How about it, interested? Don't worry, we won't let you do it for free. This time, to deal with the Blood God Cult, the Municipal Government has put up a high reward. As long as you can successfully infiltrate the Blood God Cult, this reward is yours."

Ren Jing knew Qin Shou was a money-grubber, so she directly used the reward to tempt him. As long as the money was enough, Ren Jing wasn't afraid that Qin Shou wouldn't take the bait.

Her reason for having Qin Shou act as bait was also after deep consideration. She had witnessed Qin Shou's abilities, and he was very formidable, much stronger than those Special Police Officers. And this Blood God Cult was very sinister; if ordinary female Police were used as bait, it would likely be a perilous endeavor, with a high chance of no return.

Coupled with Qin Shou's appearance, his features were definitely good-looking. With some dressing up and makeup, he might actually be more beautiful than a woman. Out of desperation, Ren Jing resorted to this last resort.

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou was indeed tempted and immediately changed his attitude. To speculate and buy demolition houses, he had almost spent all his cash and was also deeply in debt from online loans.

But his short drama still needed to be filmed, which required a large amount of capital support. He was in dire need of money right now.

Qin Shou's face showed a sly smile, and he rubbed his hands, asking, "Hehe, it's not impossible, but I'll be going deep behind enemy lines, which is very dangerous. One careless mistake and I might be finished there. I wonder how much reward the Municipal Government can offer?"

Qin Shou looked at Ren Jing with anticipation.

Ren Jing couldn't help but look at him with disdain, thinking to herself, this guy is indeed a money-grubber, without an ounce of dedication to serving the general public for free, only caring about money.

"It depends on the specific merits, but as long as it succeeds, I can guarantee that this reward will not be less than 1 million. This Blood God Cult, since coming to the City, has caused over a dozen disappearances, which is a major case."

"Good! Deal! It's just dressing as a woman, what's so hard about that? What kind of storms haven't I, Qin Shou, seen?"

Before Ren Jing could finish speaking, Qin Shou's eyes lit up upon hearing the amount of the reward. He slammed Ren Jing's desk, confidently patting his chest and making guarantees, which left Ren Jing speechless.
