Chapter 135 Enthusiastic Citizens
Is Luo Nanchen really so ambitious?
Wang Zixi's words made Qin Qinsen doubt for a few seconds. Was it because he didn't read the novel carefully enough in his previous life, or was it because he didn't have "in-depth" contact with Luo Nanchen during the few months he worked in this life?
Before Qin Qinsen could figure out what was going on, Shangguan Yue, who was standing next to him, snorted coldly, "Impossible! An illiterate person like Luo Nanchen, who doesn't even know how to write the word 'law', wouldn't have such lofty ambitions."
Han Guangxiu nodded in agreement, "I've been at Luo's for at least two years, and I've never seen him work overtime. Every time he goes out at night, it's to nightclubs, bars, or hotels. Lately, he's been frequenting banquets, but he certainly doesn't seem like someone who's ambitious."
No matter how you look at it, he is just an ordinary rich kid who likes to eat, drink and have fun. He cannot be compared with a serious and well-established family like the Teng family.
Wang Zixi's words were doubted by everyone who knew Luo Nanchen. Even Teng Su looked at her calmly with a very subtle look in his eyes.
"Really! There was also a woman, probably Mr. Luo's mother, who said her son was smart and popular, otherwise how could he have known two masters and received their full support."
"Two?"
Jiang Wei's heart skipped a beat, as if he had found a breakthrough, and asked Wang Zixi to explain in detail.
Unfortunately, Wang Zixi shook his head regretfully, "I'm not sure either. With Wang Zixi around, I can't see anything. Every time I wake up, it's like being locked in a small dark room. I can only hear sounds and can't see anything else."
"With his spirit trapped and his soul locked, coupled with a death-substitution spell, the fact that he was able to wake up is truly a gift."
There was regret in Qin Qinsen's tone, Xuanmen had lost a talented person.
"So, not only did his family know about what Luo Nanchen did, but they also supported him?!" Shangguan Yue was furious when she thought about how she suddenly fainted in the company and was slapped twice in the face for refusing to cooperate with Luo Nanchen after waking up. "Is there something wrong with his family?"
Seeing her gradually getting agitated, Qin Qinsen guessed that what she had just experienced must have been terrible. He immediately patted Shangguan Yue on the shoulder and folded a small triangle with the talisman and stuffed it into her hand. "Take a deep breath, it's over."
Shangguan Yue cooperated very well, holding the small triangle in her hand and exhaled deeply. "This morning, Luo Nanchen said he had a social event at noon and asked me to accompany him. He repeatedly assured me that it was work and that I had to go back to work in the afternoon, so I went."
You have to go, because the other party is the boss and she is an employee. How can you avoid going if he calls you to attend?
So Shangguan Yue got into the car with gritted teeth, but as soon as the car started, she lost consciousness.
"After I woke up, I didn't know where I was. I thought it was a hotel room. There were people talking outside, and then Luo Nanchen came in."
Needless to say, there was no need to elaborate on what he was planning. Luckily, Shangguan Yue had been chatting with Fang Nanxing and Yun Yao for the past few days, and with their reminders, he had already made preparations. The ring on his hand, turned over, became a self-defense weapon, and Luo Nanchen's fair face was immediately bruised.
Unfortunately, there was a huge disparity in strength between men and women. No matter how hard Shangguan Yue struggled, she couldn't escape, so her face was also damaged.
Luo Nanchen's hand was so strong that it made her eyes go black and she almost fainted. In the dim light, she heard a noise outside the door and someone was knocking on the door hard.
Shangguan Yue was lying in bed at the time, and she knew Luo Nanchen had left by the soft bounce of the mattress. Then, a muffled sound came from the door. When she opened her eyes again, the driver, Brother Han, had helped her sit up, while Luo Nanchen was lying on the ground, unconscious.
"Boss Teng said that Miss Shangguan's safety must be guaranteed." Han Guangxiu stood upright with a calm expression.
In Shangguan Yue's eyes, it is synonymous with reliability.
"It's certain that the Luo family has problems, but I don't know who else is helping them besides Xiao Wang." As he said this, Jiang Wei turned to Shangguan Yue, showed her his ID, and the two sat down together in the corner.
Qin Qinsen's mind raced, sometimes thinking of the forbidden techniques of Yuxia Mountain, sometimes of She Yizhi, and occasionally flashing back to the "two people" Wang Zixi had mentioned. Little Wang no longer had the energy to continue his mischief, so who was the remaining person?
"Aren't you tired? Come and sit down."
He gently pulled the person into his arms and led him to sit on a chair. The worry in Teng Su's eyes was almost tangible. "Are you too tired? Uncle Zhang has already contacted the Zhang family. You can ask them for help."
Unexpectedly, Qin Qinsen pointed in Jiang Wei's direction and said, "They won't help. The officials came directly to my house. Is it because I charge cheaply?"
Jiang Wei had just finished questioning, and upon hearing this, he reflexively said, "Working for the government, you can apply for subsidies later, and you can even receive a certificate of merit."
"A kind citizen, huh?" Boss Huang poured a cup of calming tea and handed it to Shangguan Yue. "Drink something hot to warm your stomach."
Jiang Wei touched his nose and didn't deny it. He spread out his notebook as if to evade the question, "It is known that the Luo family invited two masters to assist. One was taken away by the ghost, and the other one is unknown."
"Tell us something we don't know." Leaning on Teng Su's shoulder, Qin Qinsen felt a little sleepy.
"The other person has silver hair and an upright figure. He is called Master Yi by the Luo family."
Lin Qi walked in with a grim expression.
The leading ghost messenger bowed to Qin Qinsen and pointed at Lin Qi, indicating that he had brought the person back. After receiving Qin Qinsen's smile, he turned around and entered the ghost gate.
"Thank you very much."
Lin Qi cast a grateful look at Qin Qinsen. He knew that if this man hadn't spoken, he would probably be dead without a soul left.
After confirming that his teammates were okay, Jiang Wei frowned and asked, "Did you see that person?"
"No." Lin Qi explained, "According to the original plan, I was waiting in the building opposite Luo's. At 11:15 in the afternoon, I was suddenly attacked by an evil spirit. After I dealt with the evil spirit, Luo Nanchen's office was also empty."
"I chased him downstairs, but was knocked unconscious just as I got out of the elevator. When I woke up, I was in a warehouse filled with all kinds of blueprints. They looked like some kind of formation."
Lin Qi rummaged through the warehouse and found, in addition to the formation, a lot of cinnabar ink and white paper, as well as a huge map.
"Map?" Qin Qinsen was a little surprised. Pens and ink could be explained as necessary for studying formations. Was the map placed in the room for the purpose of selecting a location to cast spells?
Lin Qi pointed to the wall next to him and said, "There was a map as big as a wall. It showed the city walls, moat, and palace. Unfortunately, I didn't remember much of it before people outside discovered it. I don't know what kind of thing came through the wall. It was impossible to kill it. If the ghost messenger hadn't arrived quickly, I would have almost been unable to return."
The ghost was clever and grabbed Lin Qi and ran towards the Yin Road. After walking for a while, he circled back to the starting point, shook off the evil ghosts chasing him, and returned to the Yin Road again. It was this circling escape method that allowed Lin Qi to glimpse this clue.
"Master Yi..." After listening to Lin Qi's description, Qin Qinsen always felt that the name sounded familiar. He kept searching in his memory, but no one could match him.
At least we know there is someone out there who is even more hidden and powerful than Xiao Wang. A single evil ghost could make the underworld messenger turn around and run away; he must be no pushover.
