Chapter 239 Resurrection
Is there someone dedicated to handle this?
Chen Chuan was slightly surprised by Lao Qi's explanation. Ordinary people couldn't resist the invasion of strange stories, especially long-term exposure, which was even more dangerous. However, it was hard to say. After all, this was the central city, so there might be some way to deal with it.
He asked, "Is he from the government department?"
Lao Qi replied: "That's not the case. These kinds of unusual commissions always involve bizarre things. We clients all know to avoid them, but there is a group of people who specialize in taking these kinds of commissions.
But what they did didn't seem very good. I know of one place where they went but couldn't resolve the matter, and the order sheet showed it as closed."
At this point, his tone was filled with a hint of disgust and rejection. "There are also some places they've visited where people are simply gone, and no one is held accountable. Yet, they are able to continue to carry out these commissions."
Chen Chuan thought about it and thought that these people were very powerful and might be very unruly in their actions. The unusual commissions he had seen before were suddenly gone, and they might have been taken over by these people.
Lao Qi asked with a hint of hope: "Brother Chen, can you really handle these unusual requests?"
Chen Chuanshuo said: "The sources of ghost stories are complex, and I can't handle all of them. But in Yangzhi City, they would come to me first when they needed to deal with such incidents."
"That'll do."
Lao Qi thought for a moment and said, "There are a lot of exception requests. We can find ways to pick up some of them. Don't worry about these trivial matters, Brother Chen. I'll take care of them all for you. Brother Chen, you just need to concentrate on handling the exceptions."
Chen Chuan looked at him and saw that he seemed very excited, so he reminded him: "Lao Qi, I didn't know anyone was doing this before. From what you said, this group of people should not be simple. You have to think carefully."
Lao Qi knew clearly that this group of people must have turned the unusual entrustment business into their own business and would not let others interfere. It should be no problem for them to do a few orders secretly. If they did too many, they might come to cause trouble for him. At that time, Chen Chuan might not be in trouble, but he might be targeted.
But he was burdened with loans and still owed his daughter's tuition. Chen Chuan also paid the fine for him. Moreover, because of this matter, the company would have a record, and customers would probably avoid him once they checked. He must have no work recently, so he might as well follow Chen Chuan to make some money first, so that he could get through the current difficulties.
He pretended to be relaxed and said, "Brother Chen, I've thought about it. If I only do a few orders, they won't notice."
Chen Chuan said, "Lao Qi, you know more about Central City than I do. Please take care of yourself."
Lao Qi chuckled and said, "I've been in this business for nearly twenty years. I know this stuff." He pressed his neck again, his eyes flashing orange. "Brother Chen, let me treat you to a meal while I'm here. I'll look into this type of commission and get back to you soon."
Chen Chuan did not refuse and said okay.
Lao Qi was short of money and couldn't afford to treat anyone to a good meal, so he just ordered some snacks from a roadside food truck. Chen Chuan didn't care about that. He could even eat tasteless nutritional paste, and anything with a little flavor was delicious to him.
Lao Qi was a little embarrassed at first, afraid that Chen Chuan would dislike him, but seeing Chen Chuan eating mouthful after mouthful, he also felt hungry and started to eat voraciously. After finishing a bowl of fried noodles, he felt alive again. At this time, he tried to find a way to say, "How old are you, Brother Chen?"
Chen Chuan said: "Seventeen." In fact, he was already eighteen in terms of his lunar age, but he didn't care about the difference of one or two years, and people who dealt with him often ignored his age.
"Seventeen years old, so young. I have a daughter who is thirteen years old and already in middle school. She has very good grades." When talking about his daughter, the middle-aged man who was originally a little decadent smiled and his eyes lit up.
As he was speaking, he saw a contact number on the interface beeping. He perked up and said, "Coming." He answered immediately, and immediately a voice rang in his ear: "Lao Qi, what are you looking for these unusual commissions for?"
Lao Qi said, "I found this for a client. He's interested in these things and wants to satisfy his curiosity. If you're sure about them, just order more."
"Really? Old Qi, let me tell you, stay away from these commissions. The Jinxia gang is not easy to mess with. They have the Moss Gang behind them, and they are also involved with the higher-ups."
Lao Qi said in a relaxed tone: "I know, I just satisfy the customer's curiosity."
The voice on the other end also softened a bit, and he said earnestly: "Lao Qi, you are not alone now, think about Xiao Qi before you do anything."
"Um."
As soon as Lao Qi finished talking to the other party, he immediately received several unusual requests. After reading them, he also sent them to Chen Chuan's interface.
"Brother Chen, look, these are all unusual commissions. I asked someone to check them, and they are absolutely correct."
Chen Chuanshuo said, "Let me take a look first."
Lao Qi looked at him, smiled, and said, "Brother Chen, I know what you are afraid of. Don't worry, abnormalities are abnormalities, and esotericism is esotericism. I can tell the difference clearly."
Chen Chuan was a little surprised, "Old Qi, you know this too?" Most people can't tell this.
"Hey, everyone has a youthful period. At that time, I wanted to be trendy, so I went to the Tantric circle and learned a few tricks from others. Later, I felt it was not good and I quit." When Lao Qi said this, there was a sigh in his tone.
Chen Chuan took a look. These commissions included both the exact location of the incident and a description of the events leading up to it. They were infinitely more detailed than what he had seen in his previous inquiries. From what he saw alone, he could tell they were most likely related to ghost stories. His goal was now clear.
He said, "Thank you, Lao Qi."
"Brother Chen, you're being too polite." Lao Qi said to him, "You've helped me so much and shown me a way to make money. I have to thank you."
Since he had decided to do it, he didn't hesitate. Moreover, since Chen Chuan was willing to pay to get him out, he felt that Chen Chuan was reliable. Besides, he saw Chen Chuan take out the unlimited defense certificate that day, so he dared to take a chance.
Chen Chuanshuo said, "Let's go to one of these places first. If we're sure, we'll take the commission and try to handle this matter."
Lao Qi was also quick-witted. He stood up and said, "Okay, I have a car. I'll take you." He ran out and soon drove the car over from the sentry parking lot. He picked up Chen Chuan and drove to the location the latter sent him.
Chen Chuan took a look at the map. They were now in Weiguang District, and the location of the commission was at the junction of Weiguang District and Wuding District. If things went well, they could just go back to Wuyi.
Three quarters of an hour later, the vehicle approached the location. It was a shantytown located in a low-lying area, with simple board houses built privately everywhere. Looking through the boundary, it was found that most of the residents here did not have citizenship.
While driving down a hill, Chen Chuan glanced to the side and found a bright Tantric symbol on a wall.
Lao Qi also noticed this and explained, "This stuff is everywhere in the city. The upper part is still relatively good, but the lower part has long been flooded..." He chuckled, "There's nothing we can do about it. We don't see a way out anyway. If we don't do this to find some spiritual sustenance, we won't be able to survive."
Chen Chuan knew that what he was talking about was a huge underground slum. No one knew how many people lived there. The order of the central city did not extend there at all, so it was conceivable that the esoteric religion would spread there.
After driving for a while, the car finally couldn't go in, so the two people got out of the car and walked in along the uneven road that was covered with various boards and gravel on the mud.
Following Jie Ping's instructions, he advanced three or four hundred meters and came to a circle of simple sheds. Chen Chuan paused slightly at this time because he saw a trace of blur appear above the second me.
Although the esoteric teachings would also cause signs of emptiness, it was not like this. He tapped his ear and closed the boundary certificate. There should be no record of what happened next. After all, he was doing the commission by bypassing the platform, so it was better to have less trouble.
Although there may be records of his previous conversations with Lao Qi, he has understood the regulations. Chatting is just chatting and cannot be used as evidence. If there is no proof of implementation, it will not be considered a violation.
Of course, this was just a precaution. In reality, no one would investigate such matters except the relevant stakeholders. Even when he encountered those organ traffickers before, no one arrested them.
Lao Qi spotted one of the sheds and said, "This is it. The commission was issued by the person living here. Brother Chen, I'm the client. I'm an expert in this kind of thing. Come and talk to them. You just wait outside."
Chen Chuan said: "Okay, then I'll wait here."
Lao Qi made a reassuring gesture to him, straightened his clothes, and walked inside. After about ten minutes, he came out again.
He returned to Chen Chuan and said, "Brother Chen, I've asked clearly, and it's the same as the description entrusted by the platform."
Chen Chuan nodded. To put it simply, the commission was about a pair of brothers. Their parents died early, and the elder brother dropped out of school to join a gang to take care of his younger brother's studies. The younger brother's grades were pretty good and he was about to make it, but his elder brother died in a gang conflict.
This was undoubtedly a blow to the younger brother, but a few days later, the younger brother found that his dead brother was alive again. Although he could not speak or move, he just stood there and watched him every day.
He knew this was a very strange thing and wanted to hide it at first, but he was soon discovered by his neighbors. They also noticed that the surrounding plants began to wither on a large scale and the cats and dogs they raised also died, so they came to persuade him to bury the man.
Although the younger brother was reluctant, he knew something was wrong, so he and his neighbors buried the body. However, the matter did not end there. The previous signs still existed, and the people in the shantytown were not happy with this and asked him to burn the body.
However, the younger brother firmly disagreed and took his brother's gun to guard there. In order to solve this matter, the neighbors could only find a person who had been out of here before and now had citizenship to place a commission on the public platform.
Chen Chuan had never seen this kind of strange story before, but he had seen similar strange story files. As long as he could find the crux of the matter, he would have a way to solve it.
Old Qi hesitated and said, "Brother Chen, that Xiaoman is quite pitiful. He's only fourteen and has encountered such a thing. Will it really have an impact on people outside?"
Chen Chuan looked at him and said, "Not only will it have an impact, but it will be significant. It's okay in the short term, but it could cause problems in the long term."
"What's the problem?"
Lao Qi asked subconsciously. Chen Chuan didn't answer, but he already knew. He sighed slightly and said, "Okay, then I'll go up and tell them that we've accepted it."
