Chapter 1304 The Returnee's Notes 378
"This tea is indeed very good."
Wu Hui handed over the brewed tea, thinking to himself that his junior brother Qi Si disliked tea the most, but this tea was only slightly astringent and the rest was sweet, so he guessed Qi Si would like it.
Xie Ning smiled slightly, "If Uncle Wu Hui likes them, I'll have someone send some more over later."
Yu Shu said that Wu Hui loves tea very much, and he was right.
Wu Hui was unaware that Yu Shu had revealed all his secrets to Xie Ning. He was secretly pleased, but showed no sign of it on his face. He put down his teacup and asked Xie Ning why he had come.
Xie Ning first looked at Ouyang Lin, "Although you all met in the conference room just now, I'll still introduce you to each other now."
It mainly concerns the other party's identity and what needs to be done next.
Wu Hui and his group were too weak and alone, while the Ouyang family was a family with a deep foundation. Xie Ning thought of connecting the two sides. After all, Ouyang Lin and her group had not entered the official departments, but that did not mean that there were no people from their family inside.
If you're going to shuffle the deck, do it thoroughly. While she doesn't need to control most of the people on it, they should at least be close to her.
However, Xie Ning wasn't really clear about the internal situation of the 508 Research Institute. The person who received her when she went to Qing Shi Town last time mentioned some kind of bureau, so she thought there might be other divisions inside. But it didn't matter; for now, she was only focusing on metaphysics and the supernatural.
Ouyang Lin naturally wouldn't refuse, as Wu Hui and the others' affairs were actually quite well-known in the industry.
Many people want to customize their Soul Umbrella, but unfortunately very few can secure a spot, as it is said that making an umbrella is not easy.
Ouyang Lin speculated that Wu Hui and the others might also be using limited quantities to control value.
After chatting for a while, the group became much closer. Ouyang Lin then brought up another topic, turning to Xie Ning and saying, "Didn't you ask me to investigate Elder Yu before?"
Upon hearing this name, Wu Hui also looked over. They were also investigating Elder Yu, and his senior sister had revealed that they wanted to bring down Elder Yu's faction.
At the time, he was thinking that if the other party had not done anything wrong, targeting them in this way would be against morality.
Since it was a decision made by his master and senior sister, he didn't say anything.
Then Ouyang Lin said, "I thought we would find nothing, but we found out that Elder Yu's disciples were raising ghosts for people."
Raising ghosts can bring good fortune.
Moreover, these were high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen.
To be honest, few people can resist the temptation of a change of fortune; everyone wants to climb higher and become richer.
But in fact, this method has side effects. It's a trade-off; if you gain luck, you have to pay a price.
Those who perform rituals for others will not say there is a problem, since if there is a problem, it won't be with them.
However, not everyone is ignorant of this; some who are more knowledgeable can shift the blame...
Coincidentally, after her cousin was transferred to the Beijing Municipal Supervision Group, she discovered that someone had been promoted extremely quickly. It didn't seem like someone had pulled strings behind the scenes, but after investigating, some strange things happened.
Only then did her cousin ask her to take a look.
Unexpectedly, it was discovered that the person had bought three adjacent houses to raise ghosts. Perhaps they couldn't suppress them anymore, so they moved the houses and sold the remaining ones.
The house, which had been used to house ghosts, was decorated with many items for suppressing them.
Even if the ghost is moved away, the house will still be unclean for a short time. Most people would feel uncomfortable just walking in, let alone living there for a long time.
That house is extremely prone to attracting ghosts.
After discovering this, they didn't alert the perpetrators. Instead, they followed the clues and investigated, eventually finding their way back to Old Man Yu. This was not something to be trifled with.
Moreover, apart from the fact that this person was from Yu Lao's faction, they couldn't find any other connection between Yu Lao and this matter.
They could only keep an eye on that person and try to find out more details.
What Ouyang Lin didn't know was that the person they were watching had already been captured by Elder Yu, which cut off all their leads.
Old Master Yu was also disappointed in his students. He glanced at the man who had been beaten to a pulp, and then directly ordered the disciples next to him to kneel down. "What did I say before? Be low-key in your actions! Be low-key! You didn't listen to a word I said."
What is he doing? He directly promoted a man in his twenties to the position of deputy director-general, and he's still climbing the ranks. What is he trying to do? What are his achievements and qualifications? Can he withstand scrutiny?
You haven't even mastered your skills before showing them off. What, do you think you've lived too long?
The eldest disciple was so scolded that his head almost touched the ground. "Master, it was my fault for mismanaging things. I will clean up the mess."
"snort--"
After Elder Yu left, the eldest disciple got up, glanced at the people around him who were keeping their heads down, and then kicked one of them on the ground.
"Throw it in the morgue."
The remaining people then divided into two groups to carry the dying man on the ground. As they pulled the cart through the alleyway, they happened to run into Qi Si, who was climbing over the wall.
Startled, the two cursed, "Qis, why don't you use the proper gate? Why do you always climb over the wall?"
Qi Si, chewing on a lollipop, curiously examined the covered object on the cart for a while, then chuckled, "Isn't this a good way to exercise by climbing over walls? Last time I caught a ghost, it got away because I couldn't climb over that wall."
If I ever encounter this again, I will definitely avenge myself!
"Hey, do you guys want some candy? This lollipop is so delicious!"
The two were speechless, wondering what use Old Yu had for this kid, since they hadn't seen him come up with anything impressive.
He claimed to be able to make a Soul Umbrella, but we haven't even seen a trace of one yet. If it weren't for the money to support him, we would have kicked him out long ago. He looks like a complete idiot.
The two men waved for Qi Si to let go, and then they pulled the cart into the deeper courtyard.
Qis, who was clearing the way, stared at the cart, his eyes flashing. It smelled of human blood, and... the person inside wasn't dead yet.
However, he's not far from death.
