Chapter 224 The soul leads the way(1/2)
Several aunts shook their heads in unison.
"We are all from the front building. They went deep inside. This community is so big. They disappeared in a while."
"They are strangers, and there are only a few people living in the back. We can't always keep an eye on a stranger to see where he goes. Wouldn't this be an invasion of someone else's...privacy?"
"I only saw that they were heading east. If you want to look for them, just walk east."
"Dongtou..."
This is an important clue!
I pursed my lips and smiled, stood up to leave, and suddenly remembered something.
Then he warned: "If any of the aunts see my second brother, please don't tell him that we came here to find him. My father's heirloom is priceless. If we can find it this time, our family will be very grateful next time!"
The aunt waving the cattail fan said with a cheerful smile: "Go, go, don't worry! Aunts all know this and will never do anything bad to you."
"Thank you, aunt!"
I then took Song Muzhou away with peace of mind...
Dahei caught up with me and said with admiration: "Mess Ranran still has a way! These aunts are soft-hearted and not hard-hearted."
I sighed helplessly: "We have to use magic to defeat magic."
After grasping more detailed clues, Director Wang immediately notified everyone to investigate the east building.
As for the four of us, we also parted ways on the path in front of an old building that was not finished and even the doors and windows were not installed.
"Otherwise, Mr. Song should go to the two buildings on the right with Miss Bai. The two of them will have someone to look after them all the way. If they meet a gangster and have a head-on conflict, Miss Bai is a little girl. If she doesn't take advantage, she will be in danger.
."
When I heard Director Wang's suggestion, I immediately rejected it and said, "No! It's better to split up and find Shanshan as soon as possible. Everyone can rest assured!"
When Song Muzhou saw Dahei following me, he was not too polite: "Miss Bai is very smart, I believe she will be fine. Moreover, the two buildings on the right have few residents and a small workload, so there is a possibility that Shanshan could be hidden inside."
The sex is also small. According to what Miss Bai said before, it is better for us to act separately. "
Wang Ju thought about it, nodded, and gave Song Muzhou and me two black-shell gadgets the size of USB flash drives. "These are mini walkie-talkies. If you encounter anything, press the little red dot immediately to send the message."
Tell us, never do it privately!"
"Okay." Song Muzhou and I collected our things, and then walked in the direction we should go as we had discussed previously.
When I came to the building I wanted to enter, I looked back at Dahei who was following me and said to him: "This building has eight floors in total. If you know magic, the fifth to eighth floors will be left to you. Once you get to the fourth floor
, I’ll come.”
Dahei raised his head and looked at the tall building in front of him, and nodded in agreement: "Okay! Then Ranran, wait for me to come down and meet you!"
He raised his feet and was about to leave, but I quickly grabbed his sleeve. Suddenly I realized a problem and asked curiously: "Dahei, don't you have a very good nose? You can smell Si Heng's smell in other people's cars. That's not true."
Can you smell Shanshan’s scent around here?”
When Dahei heard this, his face fell instantly, "Sister, can you recognize the reality? I am a fox, not a dog! The fox's sense of smell is not wide! That car hit my face.
I can definitely smell the scent of a familiar person in the car!
This unfinished old building is so large... Let alone smell Shanshan's breath in this community, even if Shanshan is in this building, I can't smell her smell! Unless, it's in a
room."
I said "Oh" belatedly, and then asked without fear of death: "Then how did you know that Shanshan was in my house before?"
Dahei lowered his head, was silent for a long time, and said, "I guessed it."
"ah?"
Dahei’s heartless backhand blew my mind:
"My nose used to be okay, but now I have eaten too much human food, no one offers incense to me anymore, my Taoism has deteriorated a bit, and... when I was a fox, in order to stop the old fox from missing Shanshan, I...
I had a fight with the old fox and my inner alchemy was broken.
It was your Dragon King who secretly healed my wounds, which made me look almost the same as before. Except Dragon King and myself, no other person in the family knew about this... It was all a trivial matter. My inner elixir is now gone.
After repairing it, my sense of smell is much worse than before.
But we foxes are born with a weaker sense of smell than dogs, and I thought that this sense of smell... wasn't important."
After hearing him mention something sad, I immediately stopped him and stopped him from talking any more.
Pushing him towards the entrance of the building: "Okay, okay, let's get to work quickly! I'll leave the upper four floors to you! Maybe we haven't finished searching, and there will be news from Song Muzhou and Wang Bureau
Good news..."
He was stunned and murmured in frustration: "Good news... yes, it must be good news!"
Entering the dilapidated staircase of the building, Dahei turned into a black fox and jumped up the stairs in a blink of an eye.
I first paid close attention to the first floor and inquired.
This unfinished building should first be built as private housing with hundreds or thousands of households crowded together and with a small area per capita.
The layout of the entire floor is a bit like a middle school classroom, with doors next to each other. There are eight households on a single floor.
However, of the eight households on the first floor, five are from migrant worker families, and the remaining three are elderly.
The old people live in the houses near the back and usually do not have the habit of closing the door. Moreover, at this time, the old people are sitting in rocking chairs listening to operas and reading newspapers, so I want to ask them something and find out something about this.
It's very simple to know who lives upstairs and downstairs.
"The people living on our floor are all getting older! Everyone who has some money has packed up their things and moved away. If you say young, hey, my grandson is eight years old this year, the youngest!"
"Little girl, you said you came to visit your brother's relatives? As far as I know, although it looks like there are more than sixty families in our building from the outside, in fact, only a dozen families live there!
The few families next to us have all moved down from the upper floors. A teacher lives on the second floor, a coal miner lives on the third floor, one family lives on the fifth floor, and two families live on the sixth floor. The remaining floors are all empty.
We are not sure if any new residents have moved in recently. After all, there are too many floors and too many vacant houses. If you want to find someone, you can only go upstairs and ask each house! By the way, girl, let me remind you.
Don't stay on the fourth floor for a long time. There has been a murder on the fourth floor before. Don't live in peace!"
The old lady kindly reminded me of this while drying her clothes.
After I thanked the old lady and the couple obediently, I quickly went upstairs, focusing on checking the unoccupied rooms.
After checking the rooms on the second floor, it can be confirmed that the remaining seven houses are really unoccupied, and no one has even been near them for a long time.
I continued to check on the third floor, but the same was true on the third floor. Except for a new house occupied by homeless people, the door locks of the remaining six rooms were covered in dust three centimeters thick.
When I climbed to the fourth floor, the unshaven homeless man in his fifties from the third floor suddenly shouted at me at the bottom of the stairs: "Hey, girl! Don't go to the fourth floor! It's dangerous!"
Danger……
As soon as he finished speaking, a gloomy cold air hit my face.
I raised my eyes and saw... a long-haired female ghost in red with cuts all over her body standing straight in front of me...
The wound was scabbed, but there was still blood seeping out and overflowing from the scab... It fell to the cement floor along with the hem of her red dress embroidered with a phoenix.
The female ghost's dark blue face is covered with red blood vessels. Her eyes only have white eyes and no black pupils. Her long hair reaches her waist. She stands stiffly like a ghost puppet.
Long hair, red clothes, blood-stained red clothes... this is a fierce ghost!
I silently clenched my hands and stepped back with numbness on my back. I was about to call Dahei to come down and save me in uneasiness. Unexpectedly, those cold ghost hands grabbed my arm and pulled me violently.
Enter the corridor on the fourth floor...
I opened my mouth to shout for help, but she said in a hoarse voice: "Help, come with me, go and save people!"
Save people...
I choked back the word "help" that was stuck in my throat. I looked up at her in disbelief: "You want to take me to save people? Aren't you a ghost..."
She turned her head, glanced at me, and said word by word in a hoarse voice: "It's a bad ghost. But I don't want to harm anyone... I know you are here to find that little girl... I will help you this time, you
Save me, save me... I died on my wedding day, I don't want to be a bad ghost or kill anyone..."
"Transcendence?" When she said this, I immediately understood what she meant, and also understood why Xuan Ye didn't come with me this time...
It turned out that a receptionist had been arranged for me long ago.
"Okay!" I nodded solemnly to her.
She took me to the door of an old house with a rusty door. She pointed to the door and said, "It's right inside. That man just left. He went down to eat. Come in quickly!"
Si Heng just left?
It will be easier if you leave!
I took out the mini walkie-talkie in my pocket, pressed the red button, and said to the walkie-talkie: "Bureau Wang, Building 13, Fourth Floor, Room 404, Shanshan should be in there!"
Two seconds later, Bureau Wang's response came over the intercom: "Copy that, we'll be there right away!"
After spreading the news, I saw that the rusty old lock was in trouble.
The long-haired ghost in a red wedding dress urged: "Hurry! He is coming back!"
"How to open this lock? If you kick the door, there will be too much noise."
The female ghost lowered her head and had no idea for a moment. "I'm sorry, I can't help you go in and send a message to the girl. The girl can't see me, only you can see me..."
I was dizzy for a while, but after a few seconds, I suddenly remembered that I had now learned to control the power of the divine lotus, and I could use spells!
To be continued...
