Chapter 286 New Years Eve Dinner

However, things backfired.

Zhang Xiaoxiao died anyway, and his death was very sudden. The supernatural powers he controlled were not enough to fight against the looking ghost, and he was killed by the looking ghost as soon as he met him.

In fact, Zhang Xiaoxiao's death did not exceed Li Leping's expectations.

Death is a very normal occurrence in supernatural events.

Now that you have the awareness to deal with things, you must be prepared to face death before doing so.

However, what Li Leping couldn't accept was the outcome of Zhang Xiaoxiao's family.

Two old men, a woman, and two children, one of whom had not had time to be born, met such a cruel ending.

Zhang Xiaoxiao's whole family was wiped out. If Li Leping didn't come to visit the grave, these six tombstones might just be isolated graves.

What Li Leping couldn't tolerate the most was that among the people who attacked him, Su Hong, a ghost controller who once belonged to the headquarters, was included.

The family that was supposed to enjoy preferential treatment in Dajing City because of Zhang Xiaoxiao's sacrifice was actually intercepted and killed by Wu Wu on their way to Dajing City.

Su Hong, the former head of Dachuan City, watched all this happen, and he might even have given some hints.

How ironic that the person who was supposed to protect them suddenly became the executioner of condonation and connivance.

They died like this in the villa where Li Leping temporarily lived. The family of five were placed neatly on the floor like this. They died in a miserable state. Their bodies were covered with scars left by daggers, and their blood was flowing.

The whole floor was dyed red.

The reason Li Leping hates sleeping the most is because every time he closes his eyes, he can't help but recall the horrific experiences that hit his heart.

Some people are very capable of sleeping and pass out as soon as they close their eyes.

However, for people like Li Leping who are often under high pressure, if they want to rest, they often need to recall some warm and soothing things in their minds to help them sleep.

However, every time Li Le lay flat on the bed and closed his eyes, all he recalled were those painful experiences that he could not forget.

The more reluctant you are to think about it, the clouds and mist of the past will always take the initiative to occupy your mind.

The most suffocating thing is that when Zhang Xiaoxiao's family members died, not even a single body was left behind. They were blown to pieces directly in the fire of the explosion, and were mercilessly burned by the hot flames.

That time was also the time when Li Leping was the most angry. The blazing fire seemed to express the anger in his heart.

The death of Zhang Xiaoxiao's family was something that Li Leping would never let go of. He failed to live up to Zhang Xiaoxiao's instructions, and the death of this family also taught Li Leping a hard lesson.

That is because people are unpredictable. In this world under supernatural pressure, you cannot use your own brain circuits to speculate on the brain circuits of some crazy people.

Even if this person's superficial identity is your colleague, even if he is in the same camp as you on the surface.

However, he may turn against you at any time and stab you in the back while you are not paying attention.

Because your existence harms his interests and divides the rights he can have.

By now, although everything has ended, Su Hong's body has been found in the funeral parlor and burned by a fire.

However, this painful experience is unforgettable.

After standing in silence in front of the six tombstones for a long time, Li Leping took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.

After lighting three cigarettes, Li Leping placed them on the steps in front of the tombstone.

The cigarette gradually burned, releasing a scent mixed with nicotine.

"Have a good rest."

He stretched out his hand to support the small tombstone. There was no touching farewell. Li Leping just used the simplest language to say goodbye.

Then, he slowly stood up and left here.

The white smoke from a few burning cigarettes was floating, as if waving goodbye to Li Leping.



"Ozawa... over there, you have to take good care of your mother..."

"Honey, it's me who's useless, I'm sorry for you... You should also be good over there."

In another cemetery, Chen Zhong sat on the ground with red eyes, looking at the two tombstones in front of him, lost in thought, and murmuring.

It is unimaginable that Chen Zhong, who is so strong and resolute in the outside world, is now sitting on the ground as if he has lost his soul, with one hand on his knee, talking to himself in front of the tombstone.

Li Leping was standing not far away, watching Chen Zhong cry in front of the tombstone. He did not come forward to disturb him. He just stood there and watched silently, waiting for Chen Zhong to vent his pain.

At this moment, Chen Zhong is not his liaison, but a father who has lost his child and a husband who has lost his wife.

Many people have lost important people in the ghost borrowing incident, but their memories have been erased by Li Leping, so their lives will not be so painful.

Only Chen Zhong, even if Li Leping took the initiative to ask, he verbally rejected Li Leping's kindness.

"With pain in my heart, I can better remember the departure of those people and live stronger for them in this world. No matter how difficult and exhausting the process is, I am not willing to escape."

This is the answer given by Chen Zhong.

Just seeing how he was crying so heartbrokenly now, Li Leping couldn't say anything.

Everyone has to pay for their own choices. Since they have decided to live with pain, they can only live with this grief all the way.

"Detective Lee?"

Chen Zhong, who had been paying attention to the tombstone, did not know how long it had passed, and as the haziness brought by the tears in front of his eyes gradually faded, he saw the man wearing a black coat, standing on the steps not far away, as if

A young man overlooking this cemetery.

The young man made no movements, had an unfamiliar face, and a sickly pale complexion. He put his hands in his pockets and looked around silently, as if he was a person who had nothing to do with the world.

"Don't worry about me, you can do whatever you want."

Suddenly, a dull voice came from my ears.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Even though they were tens of meters apart, this sound could clearly reach Chen Zhong's ears.

There is no doubt that this is some kind of supernatural means.

Chen Zhong was also used to these special and strange methods. He wiped his eyes and wiped away the tears.

I glanced at the time.

It's almost three o'clock in the afternoon.

Unconsciously, he sat in front of the tombstones of his wife and children for several hours.

After saying something to the tombstone again, Chen Zhong packed up his things and walked over.

After Li Leping saw that Chen Zhong was planning to leave, he did not stay where he was. Instead, he turned around and left first.

This is a cemetery, there is no need to talk about the next trip here.

After walking all the way to the parking lot and standing next to Chen Zhong's car, Li Leping turned around and looked at the figure walking quickly behind him.

"I'm sorry, Detective Li, I wasted too much time."

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Zhong scratched the back of his head and expressed his apology.

"It's okay, it's human nature." Li Leping said.

He didn't mind giving Chen Zhong more time to spend with his family, but even if he wanted to release his kindness, under the influence of the evil ghost, his words were always accompanied by an inexplicable sense of oppression.

Even Chen Zhong couldn't help but tremble under this invisible oppression, his mentality became cautious, and he acted cautiously, for fear that he would displease Li Leping in front of him.

There is no way. In the eyes of living people, ghost masters like Li Leping are aliens, unsociable and mysterious existences beyond human understanding.

People have a mentality of admiring the strong, and they will naturally be afraid of the strong.

Opening the door, Li Leping sat in the passenger seat and asked, "Where are you going to eat?"

Chen Zhong was silent for a few seconds, and then said in an awkward tone: "I'm not very good at cooking, so I can fool myself with my cooking skills. How about we find a food stall to have a meal?"

"Food stall?"

Although going to a food stall for New Year’s Eve dinner feels a bit inconsistent.

However, Li Leping thought about it and felt that this was the only place he could go.

Both of them are people with no elegant sentiments. They have never been to that kind of high-end restaurant. They have neither seen the delicacies of mountains and seas, nor are they used to eating them.

Besides, two men went to a high-end restaurant and ordered two steaks and a bottle of red wine, which set off the atmosphere, but the impression was too strange.

"Okay, you can make arrangements."

With Li Leping's current physical condition, he has no interest in eating or drinking. Now he is just bored, so he thought of going out for a walk and treated it as a daily patrol.

"Okay."

After Chen Zhong made sure that Li Leping had no objection, he immediately started the engine and drove back to the city center.

Today is New Year’s Eve, and the roads along the way are a bit deserted. Although there are many red lanterns hanging on the street lamps and tree branches, symbolizing the joy, there are not many vehicles on the road, and even the number of pedestrians on the sidewalks has dropped sharply.

many.

Many people who work hard in the city have returned to their hometowns to enjoy this rare festive atmosphere with their relatives.

Fortunately, even though today is New Year's Eve, there are still many food stalls open for business.

When we came to a food street, the vendors inside had not yet come out to set up stalls on a large scale. Only a few shops were open for business, and the rolling shutter doors of the rest of the shops were closed. There were not many people on the whole street, making it look extremely deserted.

"There are not many shops open." Chen Zhong sighed.

"During the Chinese New Year, even if these shops open, they won't open until after the New Year's Eve dinner and when the fireworks are set off. That's a good time to make money." Li Leping thinks everything is normal.

Although people who open stores these days are definitely trying to make money, there seems to be nothing wrong with taking a half-day break three hundred and sixty-five days a year.

What's more, the time they came was not the busiest time for this food street.

When people finish their New Year's Eve dinner and want to go out to watch the fireworks or hang out, it's a good time for street vendors to make money.

However, just after Chen Zhong parked his car and entered the food court with Li Leping, he saw the proprietress of a food stall walking over enthusiastically and starting to greet the customers.

"Hey, do you two handsome guys come in and sit down?"

Although the landlady is in her thirties, she has taken good care of herself. Even in this place filled with oily fumes, she can still be considered charming.

Also, how can a person who is not beautiful attract customers?

Of course, this is serious solicitation, not the weird way of soliciting clients from a hair salon.
