Chapter 807: Late Night Strange Things (Part 2)
The City God keeps calling him "Your Highness". It seems that the guy has a high position, no, his status is not low.
"Lord City God, what does this have to do with that prince?"
"I'll find him for you directly, and you can ask him in person."
"I don't want to get involved in this mess."
Tu Ran: ...
Is this being disliked?
No, it was the ghost who disliked him.
The City God is in charge of the dungeon connection list. In theory, he is both a god and a ghost.
While she was in a daze, the City God left quickly.
But she didn't have much hope.
She could understand that the City God didn't want to be disturbed, nor did he want to get involved in muddy waters. After all, they were not related and had no friendship.
It is a blessing that these offerings of fruit and incense can summon people out.
You can't really expect him to do anything for you?
As for, go find that prince.
Tu Ran felt that it was most likely the City God's excuse to escape.
Someone with that status would definitely not meet me.
Especially since I have ruined his plans time and time again.
Not an enemy, but definitely not a friend either.
And the last time he took me away, he was kidnapped by a four-tailed fox. I feel a little guilty no matter how I think about it.
When Tu Ran thought of this, he raised his foot and prepared to leave, thinking of another way.
But after a black golden light, a familiar figure suddenly stood before him.
If it’s not Feng Yan, who else could it be?
"You...you...you...you really came?"
"What else?" The man remained indifferent.
"Lord Feng, I have offended me many times in the past, but you have never pursued the matter. Thank you!" Tu Ran took the initiative to show goodwill.
As the saying goes, don't hit someone who smiles at you.
Unexpectedly, the man replied directly, "You are wrong. I have investigated the matter, but... you ran away."
Tu Ran looked embarrassed.
He was too embarrassed to put the blame on his savior, Siwei, so he could only lower his head and dare not say a word.
Seeing her like this, Feng Yanzhi found it funny.
"But don't worry, since you managed to escape from my hands, you have escaped death. The higher-ups don't plan to investigate for the time being. Even if they do, they will first investigate the four-tailed fox, so you are safe for the time being."
With his words, Tu Ran felt much more at ease.
Bowing respectfully, he said, "Your Highness Feng, I originally came to the City God today to ask for an explanation, but the City God knew that you and I were... old acquaintances, so he sent for you instead. Sorry to bother you. I'm here today for only one matter."
"The soul of the old lady from the Xie family, right?"
He actually knows everything, awesome!
Tu Ran has always been willing to deal with straightforward people.
She nodded heavily. "Yes, there's something wrong with grandma's body. She's not dead yet, which is not a good thing. And I can't find any soul."
"That's because it was hidden."
"Of course you can't find it."
"That person is very skilled. He used a magical tool to trap the soul. It's normal that you can't find it."
Tu Ran was shocked again when he heard Feng Yan say this.
"Grandma Xie is very old and usually very kind. How could someone want to take her soul?"
"Of course you have to ask Xie Nancheng about this."
"He'll give you the answer."
"I understand. Thank you, Your Highness. I came in a hurry today and didn't bring any gifts. I will buy you a few carts of gold ingots to fill your stomach some other day."
Feng Yan: ...
"So you're blatantly bribing the dungeon officials, right?"
Tu Ran: No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I really just wanted to express my gratitude, not to bribe you. If I were to offer a bribe, I'd naturally be asking Your Highness to do something that's against the rules, but that's clearly not the case right now. I'm just trying to find out something Your Highness knows. Your Highness is kind enough to tell me, and I should be grateful for that."
"You're very sharp-tongued." Feng Yan stared at Tu Ran's face.
"Since I already know the answer I want, I won't delay any longer. Goodbye."
"Don't you think it's unlucky to say goodbye to me?"
"I am a ghost messenger. You will die if you see me." Feng Yan suddenly started to play a prank.
"Everyone is bound to die sooner or later, so why be afraid?"
"It's not like I didn't go there with adults last time."
"I can face life and death calmly, so naturally I won't feel unlucky."
"Besides, you are an official from the underground train, and you are also doing your job. Why would you say it is unlucky?"
"Goodbye, Your Highness. Thank you for today."
Tu Ran has never been someone who fears power, and he is soft-hearted and will not tolerate toughness.
The more threatening, the less afraid I am.
On the contrary, if the other party is well, she will definitely be respectful to him.
Until Tu Ran walked away.
Feng Yan still stood at the door.
The City God came forward cautiously and knelt down to pay homage.
"Your Highness, it's not that I don't want to get involved in this mess."
"It's really this girl's identity..."
"You don't have to tell me, I understand everything."
"Go." Feng Yan waved his hand.
The City God disappeared, and he himself also disappeared in the City God Temple in a flash of golden light.
Just the scene just now, even if others saw it.
I also thought Tu Ran was a madman who talked to himself.
Because ordinary people cannot see the City God and Fengyan at all.
Tu Ran drove to find Xie Nancheng.
Knowing that he might not be willing to see me, I called Xu Xin in advance.
The young lady has always held a very high position in Xu Xin's heart.
Xu Xin would rather be scolded than tell her that the boss was at the old house.
However, it gets dark early in Xiangcheng in winter.
It soon got dark.
Before Tu Ran arrived at the old house, Xie Nancheng went to the funeral home.
Because the funeral home called and said.
The old lady's body is missing!
This is a big deal, Xie Nancheng rushed over immediately.
Seeing that the room where his grandmother's body was kept was empty, he became furious.
"What do you do for a living?"
"Can you throw away dead people?"
The person in charge was a man in his fifties, trembling with fear.
"Mr. Xie, I don't know either."
"I checked, but didn't see any suspicious people."
"Besides, who would steal a corpse?"
"Pull up all the surveillance footage, let me take a look."
"The surveillance... the surveillance was... deleted by someone." The person in charge felt very guilty.
"It's okay, I can fix it." Xie Nancheng didn't think this was a problem at all.
When he was studying abroad, he had already mastered hacking skills.
Restoring deleted monitoring is easy.
only……
Who would be so despicable as to steal his grandmother's body? Was it Xie Yao and Lin Siyao who did it?
The first two people that came to Xie Nancheng's mind were those two people.
Because I had just delivered funeral clothes to those two people, it was not surprising that they were taking revenge on me.
Afterwards, Xie Nancheng came to the monitoring room.
After sending the person away, he restored the surveillance footage of that day himself.
He slowly adjusted the surveillance camera, not missing any corner.
Suddenly...
A figure that couldn't be more familiar caught his attention.
He paused, then zoomed in.
A woman wearing a mask and work clothes.
Although only half of the face was exposed, but... he could still recognize it at a glance. It was Tu Ran.
"Of course?"
"Why is it her?" Xie Nancheng stared at the surveillance screen in disbelief.
