Chapter 91 Bazi fortune prediction

After Captain Xu Chang hung up the phone, he felt relieved and sat in his office, calmly waiting for Jiang Chen to arrive.

However, after sitting for a while, he became a bit uneasy. Wasn't Jiang Chen supposed to be heading toward the 749 Bureau? Why hadn't he arrived yet?

Just as Captain Xu Chang was about to lose his patience, a 749 member knocked on his door.

Captain Xu Chang said with a sense of relief, "Come in!"

"Captain, there is someone named Jiang Chen downstairs who says he is here to see you about something."

"Quick, let him in."

A moment later, clear footsteps sounded outside the door, and Jiang Chen pushed the door open and entered.

"Captain Xu Chang, I came over to ask if there has been any unusual activity at the large tomb in the past two days?"

Captain Xu Chang took a sip of tea to moisten his throat before he began to recount what happened yesterday.

"Yesterday afternoon, shortly after you left, we discovered that the large tomb had been robbed."

Jiang Chen's pupils constricted slightly. "And then? Did you find out who did it? Was there any unusual activity at the large tomb?"

"At first, there was indeed movement at the large tomb, but it calmed down after a while. Additionally, we have identified the tomb robbers."

"It was those guys from the Southern Tomb Sect. They made some kind of deal with the Yamamoto Family from the island nation to help them steal the Magical Artifacts from the tomb. We are currently searching for them with full force."

"Trading Chinese items to the Japanese?"

Captain Xu Chang looked at Jiang Chen with surprise, then nodded. "That's right, those traitors!"

He slammed his fist heavily onto the table.

"Do you know their general location now?"

"Those guys from the Southern Tomb Sect are very good at hiding. We can only confirm that the Yamamoto Family members they are dealing with are still in China. The leader is named Yamamoto Kazuo, and he should be in the vicinity of Binzhou."

"Do you have their birth data and any items they have used?"

Captain Xu Chang was stunned. "We don't have those, but the birth data can be looked up. Why do you need this?"

"Naturally, to root out these rats in the gutter!"

"Alright, I can get the information to you in two hours at the earliest."

The power of a state machine in operation is terrifying, especially for a country that is currently the only one in the world capable of going head-to-head with the United States.

Even just a single department can mobilize a terrifying amount of resources.

In less than an hour, Captain Xu Chang had looked up Yamamoto Kazuo's birth data and delivered it to Jiang Chen.

Looking at the string of characters on the slip of paper, Jiang Chen was unsure if he would be able to find Yamamoto Kazuo's location.

Jiang Chen had previously studied Formation, delving into numerology and the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams, so he also had some knowledge of Eight-Character fortune-telling.

However, this method requires not only the birth data but also the person's presence, or parts of their body, clothing, and so on.

Now that Jiang Chen only had the birth data, the results might differ significantly from reality.

However, Jiang Chen decided to give it a try anyway, treating a dead horse as if it were still alive.

He asked Captain Xu Chang to prepare an incense burner and three sticks of incense, then held the yellow talisman inscribed with Yamamoto Kazuo's birth data in his hand.

He lit the three sticks of incense, and the smoke curled upwards.

Jiang Chen began to form hand seals and chant incantations, while Captain Xu Chang stood quietly to the side, afraid of disturbing him.

"Emperor of Heaven, Emperor of Heaven, Universal Transformation in Ten Directions, no prayer goes unanswered, no request goes unblessed..."

When Jiang Chen finished the incantation, a sudden flash of fire appeared on the yellow talisman with the birth data, and in an instant, it burned to ashes.

The incense smoke, which had originally been curling and rising, suddenly twisted.

The smoke suddenly changed direction, pointing one way, but then immediately pointed in another.

It went back and forth like this, the smoke becoming almost chaotic, making it impossible to distinguish a specific direction.

Captain Xu Chang couldn't help but feel anxious, almost speaking out.

But seeing that Jiang Chen remained calm, he forced himself to hold back.

This situation was already within Jiang Chen's expectations.

There are more than just thousands of people in China with the same birth data. Without something linked to Yamamoto Kazuo, it would naturally lead to many possible results.

But Jiang Chen had a backup plan. He began to analyze and filter out the fortunes that did not align with his expectations.

"Direct Officer is not it."

Jiang Chen waved his hand, and the scattered smoke condensed slightly.

"Seven Killings is not it."

The smoke that had originally formed a ball now resembled a durian. Although the directions were still varied, they could barely be distinguished.

"Direct Wealth is not it."

"Eating God is not it."

"..."

By the time Jiang Chen had eliminated all impossible possibilities, the smoke had become a very clear and intuitive spiky ball.

Captain Xu Chang sighed slightly; it still wasn't enough.

If that was all, there would still be dozens or hundreds of possibilities.

Even if there were enough people to search, they couldn't have a Jiang Chen for every person, and it would likely take ten days or half a month.

But Jiang Chen wasn't finished yet.

He brought his feet slightly together and used his right thumb to draw four vertical lines in the air, followed by five horizontal lines.

"Four verticals and four horizontals, my power sets forth, King Yu defends the Dao, no weapons can block my path, thieves cannot rise, tigers and wolves cannot invade... As urgent as the decree of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden!"

Immediately, the smoke that had formed a spiky ball began to change. The spikes began to recede one by one, while the spikes in a few directions grew longer.

Finally, those long spikes also gradually receded, and the smoke pointed in only one direction!

A gleam flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes. This incantation was not specifically for finding people, but for avoiding harm and seeking advantages.

However, Jiang Chen took a different approach, forcefully using his strong will and obsession to make the incantation believe that finding Yamamoto Kazuo's address was the ultimate good fortune.

That was how the current situation came to be.

"This direction is... It's actually near Mount Bulao!"

Captain Xu Chang was so angry he gritted his teeth. They had actually pulled a 'darkness under the lamp' trick on the 749 Bureau!

They had subconsciously assumed that Yamamoto Kazuo must have run far away, with the most likely place being the seaside.

But they hadn't expected Yamamoto Kazuo to be so bold as to treat the entire 749 Bureau like monkeys.

The most infuriating part was that he had actually succeeded in tricking them!

"Jia He, take your men and prepare to move!"

Captain Xu Chang lowered his head to make a call, and when he looked up, he was stunned.

He saw that the spot where Jiang Chen had been standing was already empty; there was no one left.

...

In an agritainment resort at the foot of Mount Bulao, Yamamoto Kazuo was lying comfortably in a homestay, with two women snuggled up beside him.

"Mr. Yamamoto, you are truly amazing. Even with both of us sisters serving you together, we can barely keep up," one of the heavily made-up women said coquettishly.

Yamamoto Kazuo smiled triumphantly.

"By the way, aren't you afraid your boyfriends will find out that you are serving me like this?"

The other woman rolled her eyes.

"So what if they find out? If he knew that his woman had been slept with by Mr. Yamamoto, he should feel honored!"

"Exactly, Mr. Yamamoto, how can my boyfriend compare to you? You are a noble person from the island nation!"

Yamamoto Kazuo could no longer hold it in and laughed triumphantly.
