Chapter 123 The feeling of crying in front of others
The two old men were stunned when they saw someone suddenly kneeling in front of them.
Isn’t this the face of the son they think about day and night?
The old lady hugged Zhou Jian, tears streaming down her face. "Son! No wonder you've never appeared in my dreams. It turns out you've been suffering outside!"
The old man also cried non-stop, "Ajian, you have suffered so much over the years! It's all because of Dad's uselessness that he couldn't even find your body. You've become a lonely ghost out there, with no one to offer sacrifices to you at your grave."
The middle-aged woman also choked up at the handsome young man in front of her. She had seen Zhou Jian's death in Shi Ling's live broadcast, but she didn't dare show the horrific appearance to her parents, fearing that they would not be able to bear it. "Brother, you died so tragically!"
For the first time in thirty years, Zhou Jian experienced the feeling of crying in front of someone at a funeral.
It's quite novel.
How come he still suffers from tear incontinence even though he has been a ghost for so long?
Zhong Xian and her fellow senior brothers nearby, thanks to Shi Ling, had experienced several supernatural events, so they were only surprised by Zhou Jian's ghost appearance and accepted it calmly.
Forensic doctors can make the dead speak, and so can magicians. It is very reasonable, materialistic, and scientific.
Zhong Xian pulled Shi Ling aside and whispered, "Did Baiyun Construction give you any trouble?"
Shi Ling winked at her playfully, "I have someone to back me up now. Elder Jing has adopted me as his granddaughter."
Zhong Xian was surprised but also relieved. "I'm glad you're alright. But even with Elder Jing backing you up, you still have to be careful. Baiyun Construction is a shady business. My senior brother Zhang Wangzhou has been investigating the situation at Baiyun Construction, but to no avail..."
Zhong Xian lowered her voice and spoke vaguely, but Shi Ling understood that she was concerned about her personal safety.
Shi Ling listened and nodded obediently, following Zhong Xian's gaze to look at her senior brother Zhang Wangzhou.
No wonder her handsome and capable senior brother always came to do hard labor for Zhong Xian. It turned out that he was frustrated because his investigation was not going well.
Zhang Wangzhou was wearing a blue police uniform, with a tall and thin figure. He stood against the wall, and when he lowered his head, his hair slightly covered his forehead.
As if he felt someone was watching him, he looked up. The eyes were sharp and alert, like a wolf walking at night.
After meeting Shi Ling's gaze, Zhang Wangzhou's expression softened a little, and he nodded slightly to her.
Zhong Xian also noticed Zhang Wangzhou's actions and continued whispering to Shi Ling, "My senior brother has always wanted to find out the cause of death of the Baiyun Construction workers and bring President Zhou to justice, but he's never found a breakthrough. This time, he should be able to find a breakthrough from this case."
Shi Ling said casually, "Officer Zhang will definitely get what he wants."
Zhong Xian was surprised: "Really?"
She would just take it as encouragement when others said that, but Shi Ling is different! She is super smart!
Shi Ling was looked at by the policewoman with expectant eyes, and he also stood up. With her cool and ethereal face, he nodded in a masterly manner.
Zhong Xian's eyes lit up: This wave is stable!
…
At night, dark clouds cover the moon.
Inside the blue safety barrier emblazoned with the Chinese characters "Baiyun Construction," workers continue to work tirelessly day and night. In the stillness of the night, only the sounds of transportation and construction remain.
The supervisor, wearing a hard hat, checked every floor. When he reached the rooftop, he saw a worker standing there motionless. He frowned, walked over and patted the worker on the shoulder. "What's going on? Are you slacking off?"
The worker's body remained motionless, but his head slowly turned, a full half circle, and looked at the supervisor in an inhuman posture.
That face—
"ah!"

Good night~
