"February 17, xxxx, M City, Chen Long, two male corpses entered inventory, ages between twenty and thirty, processed and out of inventory."
"May 30, xxxx, N City, Huang Jin, one male corpse and one female corpse entered inventory, male aged around thirty, female aged around twenty, processed and out of inventory."
"January 15, xxxx, K City........"
Opening the ledger, the words that came into view made Zhang Feng's eyes flicker continuously.
Among them, a cold glint shone, filled with anger.
This ledger doesn't record money at all.
But corpses.
These endless bodies are lives lost, one after another!
Many of the names were unfamiliar to Zhang Feng.
But this Huang Jin...
Previously quite unfamiliar, but now couldn't be more familiar.
The names here are clearly those from various places, those coming to celebrate a birthday, similar big shots like Cheng Bing!
Zhang Feng saw no less than thirty-seven names!
Of course, many of these thirty-seven names had disappeared years ago.
Perhaps they were dead, or maybe the police had caught them.
But among the remaining, twenty-five are still active this year!
Zhang Feng even saw Cheng Bing's name among them.
In other words, Cheng Bing might not have met the Evil Cultivator.
But he definitely knows about this base in Haicheng.
This proves that the captured Cheng Bing was still hiding something from them!
Unfortunately, when Zhang Feng caught Cheng Bing, his strength hadn't recovered much, and he couldn't perform a Soul Search.
If only he had used Soul Search on Cheng Bing back then.
This place might have been destroyed with his team long ago!
Although these records only documented the handling of corpses passing through this place, it was enough to form a chain of evidence.
Even if they didn't kill the people, bringing the bodies here is unavoidable for them.
As for... why villains always leave a ledger behind after committing crimes...
It's really simple.
Obviously, it's a deliberate arrangement by the Evil Cultivator to have leverage over these people.
To tie them in, not forgetting how each rose to power.
If they grow wings and want to go independent or betray, they must weigh their capabilities.
However, there is naturally a risk of this being discovered by others.
Once someone else finds out, they could wipe them out completely.
Thus, they imposed a double restriction.
Modern high-tech and unknown methods of the Evil Cultivator.
Allowing the ledger to signal them immediately if it is accessed under irregular conditions.
Then they come to handle it right away.
Of course, in this day and age, using such primitive recording methods...
It's also for safety reasons.
If recorded on some USB drive or computer, what if it gets a virus?
What if a bored hacker wants to practice and hacks it?
It would be completely exposed!
So, textual records are relatively the safest.
Unfortunately for them, they encountered Zhang Feng.
Encountered Zhang Feng, whose strength had recovered once more.
This ledger, which documented their evident crimes, was seen clearly by Zhang Feng.
At this moment, Zhang Feng's eyes flickered, and even some Spiritual Qi glimmered.
He was memorizing, committing every word in the ledger to memory without fail.
Of course, under normal circumstances, wouldn't it be easier for Zhang Feng just to take pictures with his phone?
But now this spherical space, a boundary created to replicate a space by Zhang Feng, had its objects detached from the real world.
Even though Zhang Feng carried a phone and could take photos, once the boundary space was destroyed, the phone replicated in it would also be destroyed.
And his real-world phone hadn't taken any photos.
So, Zhang Feng had to rely on his memory.
Fortunately, Zhang Feng had a photographic memory.
Not missing even punctuation marks.
Once out, he could write it all down; the effect would be the same.
Zhang Feng flipped through the pages quickly.
Proving his memory was swift.
Even faster than a regular person flipping through a book.
Soon, the ledger's content reached its end.
After recording all the ledger's content into his mind.
Zhang Feng closed his eyes, allowing himself a brief respite.
Upon reopening his eyes, he confirmed he had copied the ledger fully into his brain.
There was no need for the boundary space to exist anymore.
Promptly, he needed to leave and bring the noted information into the real world, to later relay to Shen Hanshan.
Once Shen Hanshan had evidence, he could move in for arrests.
Since the boundary world's contents were no longer needed.
Zhang Feng carelessly tossed the ledger aside to dissolve the boundary.
But the toss nearly threw his back out!
Having tossed the ledger, just as he was about to sit cross-legged and start dissolving the boundary.
"Clatter!" As it hit the ground, the ledger opened to a page due to inertia.
There were additional words on it!
This halted Zhang Feng's half-completed cross-legged position, springing him to his feet.
With a whisk of his hand, the ledger returned to him.
Flipping it around, he opened it anew!
"Damn!"
A sigh of relief spread across Zhang Feng's face:
"Almost missed it!"
Indeed, had there been something on the back, Zhang Feng would have eventually found it.
But it happened that the thick notebook had only been written on a few dozen pages, not even halfway used yet.
So Zhang Feng hadn't reached the back.
Upon flipping it, front to back, a new notebook emerged!
Had he not whimsically tossed it away, he might have missed this!
Yet just as Zhang Feng was about to begin memorizing again, his gaze deepened.
The entries here were completely different from the previous ones!
"XXXX year August 15, target number 1 assassination completed, body transferred to inventory, sealed!"
"XXXX year October 27, target number 1 body out of inventory, stock emptied!"
"XXXX year April 23, target number 2 assassination completed, body transferred to inventory, sealed!"
"XXXX year October 27, target number 2 body out of inventory, stock emptied!"
"XXXX year June 3, target number 3 assassination completed, body transferred to inventory, sealed!"
"XXXX year October 27, target number 3 body out of inventory, stock emptied!"
"XXXX year September 30, target number 4 assassination completed, body transferred to inventory, sealed!"
Above.
Is all the content opened from the back of the notebook!
The information made Zhang Feng's pupils flicker endlessly!
"What does this mean?"
"Targets 1, 2, 3, 4? Assassination? What is all this?"
Staring at the entries, Zhang Feng was utterly perplexed.
"And further..."
"Why are all the out-of-inventory and stock-cleared dates... October 27?"
Focusing on this date made Zhang Feng knit his brows.
It felt like this scantily recorded back-page content was more important than the past dozens of pages of others' criminal evidence!
"Wait a minute!"
Suddenly, Zhang Feng's eyes narrowed.
"The body of target number 4 has not yet been out of inventory!"
