As he said this, he opened both rolling doors and walked around the store carefully checking everything in front of Zhao Dingsheng.
In the end, nothing was found.
"Look, you scared yourself. Maybe there was a leak somewhere last night, and when the wind blew it made a whistling sound. Look how scared you were."
I don’t know if it’s because it’s daybreak or there’s someone around, but Zhao Dingsheng looked around the store and didn’t feel anything was wrong.
Could it be that I really missed the sound of the wind in a corner last night?
Finally, Zhao Dingsheng decided to observe for another night at the advice of his brother.
But he didn't dare to live alone, so he simply asked his brother to come and stay with him at night.
The brother agreed quite readily, and said that he had never seen a ghost, and if he could really see one in Zhao Dingsheng's store, it would be considered a great achievement.
Everything was normal during the day, Zhao Dingsheng continued to repair the car. When it was getting dark, he quickly called his brother to ask him to come over.
After the brothers came over, they carefully checked every corner of the store again before it got completely dark, making sure there were no air leaks, and then closed the door.
At 11 o'clock in the evening, the two of them were each holding a mobile phone and watching it. During this time, the good brother asked Zhao Dingsheng about what time he heard the sound last night.
Zhao Dingsheng was speechless when he saw the impatient look on his face.
He had never seen anyone so curious about that thing.
If this happened in a novel, he estimated that his brother would be the cannon fodder who died in the front.
Although he was complaining in his heart, he still tried to recall the approximate time when the sound appeared last night, and later found that it was around eleven o'clock and close to twelve o'clock.
Just as he finished speaking, a familiar "wooooooo" sound came from the shop in front.
The moment this voice sounded, Zhao Dingsheng became nervous.
He turned around and saw his good brother. Just when he was about to ask him to go out and take a look, he found that the person who was talking nonsense just now was now stunned.
Seeing Zhao Dingsheng looking over, the good brother said with all his strength: "Well, let's go out and take a look?"
Zhao Dingsheng nodded.
Soon, the two men opened the bedroom door with self-defense weapons.
They had just listened carefully in the bedroom to the direction from which the sound came, and it was almost the same location as the sound Zhao Dingsheng heard yesterday.
After they opened the door, they quickly walked in that direction, and the sound disappeared immediately.
But instead of feeling relieved, the two of them were frightened and screamed.
"ah!!!"
Because at the place where the sound came from, Zhao Dingsheng and his good brothers saw a translucent figure flash by and disappear from their sight in an instant.
The two were so scared that they turned around and ran to the bedroom. Then they did the same thing as Zhao Dingsheng did last night, blocking the door in various ways, and finally huddled together and trembled.
If only one person saw it, it would most likely be dazzled, but they both saw it, so it couldn't be that both of them were dazzled at the same time, right?
Fortunately, the ghost did not rush in to find them in the end, so the two of them were able to survive safely until daytime.
Then as soon as the sun rose, Zhao Dingsheng came to find Lin Xi.
"Master, there really is a ghost! My brother and I saw it!"
His brother, who was so excited to see a ghost, was lying on the bed in fear...
After hearing this, Lin Xi asked Zhao Dingsheng again, asking him if a similar situation had occurred in the store before.
Zhao Dingsheng quickly shook his head.
"No, absolutely not!"
He rented the store for five years at a time. This year is the fourth year. Everything was going well in the first few years without any problems.
That night, the sound suddenly started to appear out of nowhere.
Zhao Dingsheng racked his brains but couldn't figure out what was going on.
He clearly didn't do anything during those few days. He was just doing business as usual, and he didn't encounter any "deaths" or "funerals" or anything like that. How come a ghost suddenly appeared in the store?
But the ghost seemed to have settled down here and refused to leave, crying and wailing every night.
That does sound a bit strange.
Generally speaking, ghosts will not haunt strangers for no reason after death, and may even stay in strangers' homes.
According to Zhao Dingsheng's description, the ghost had been crying at night, which showed that he must have been wronged. In this case, shouldn't he seek revenge on the person who bullied or hurt him?
Why would he come to Zhao Dingsheng for no reason?
Because judging from Zhao Dingsheng's face, he had not done anything bad like murder or arson, so the possibility of the ghost coming to seek revenge on him was almost zero.
The current clues did not yield any results, so Lin Xi could only go to Zhao Dingsheng's auto repair shop.
Forty minutes later, Lin Xi got into Zhao Dingsheng's car and came to his repair shop.
As soon as she entered the repair shop, she felt a gloomy aura lingering in the shop.
Lin Xi's eyes quickly locked onto a car in the store.
She frowned as she looked at the car, then asked Zhao Dingsheng.
"The yin energy is gathering in that car. There's something wrong with that car. Whose is it?"
Hearing this, Zhao Dingsheng was shocked.
Is there something wrong with the car?!
He followed Lin Xi's gaze and saw the car that had been parked in his shop for exactly two days.
He quickly explained, "Well, that was a car a customer left with me and asked me to repair..."
He still remembered that the customer came in the afternoon and said that his car had been accidentally hit outside and the paint had been chipped off. He wanted Zhao Dingsheng to help him repair the damaged area.
Zhao Dingsheng took a quick look and found that the car had been hit on the right front, with some paint peeling off and the body of the car slightly dented inward. It was not particularly serious and could be fixed in no time with the help of a dent repair device or something.
He told the customer at the time that if he was in a hurry, he would take care of it in the afternoon.
Because from the customer's accent, he didn't seem to be from here. He was most likely from another place, maybe even from the highway.
Worried that the other party was in a hurry to leave, Zhao Dingsheng specifically asked him if he was in a hurry.
As a result, the customer said that he was not in a hurry at all, and asked Zhao Dingsheng to focus on other things first, and he could come back to pick it up in three to five days.
Zhao Dingsheng had never expected that this guest would be so easy to talk to. After hearing what he said, Zhao Dingsheng happily agreed.
It was just right that he could use these few days to repair those cars that were more urgently needed. If there were other customers coming during this period, he could deal with theirs first, and deal with this customer's when he was not in the mood or had some free time.
Anyway, he said five days at the latest would be fine.
So Zhao Dingsheng drove the car to the corner and waited, planning to deal with other cars first in the next two days.
Now that I hear what Lin Xi said, isn’t it just that the “ghost crying” sound started after this car stopped at the repair shop?
The timing is perfect!
Zhao Dingsheng was suddenly angry and anxious.
"Master, can you tell what's going on with this car? Why is this ghost hiding in the car for no reason?"
Lin Xi's eyes fell on the damaged area of the car.
That is the source of the Yin energy.
She slowly approached the car, lowered her head and looked at the dent in the car for a few seconds, then said, "If I'm not mistaken, this car must have been in an accident and killed someone."
Her five senses were sharper than those of an average person, and she could smell a faint smell of blood from the damaged parts of the car.
It was obvious that there was blood.
Crash, crash, someone was killed?!
When Zhao Dingsheng heard this, his face turned pale.
This car actually killed someone like this, it's a fucking accident car!
Putting aside the legal issues, it is simply too unlucky to park a car like this in your own shop!
Especially since the guest had concealed the matter privately, he might have fled the scene of the accident!
Zhao Dingsheng trembled as he moved closer to the damaged part of the car and checked it with almost full concentration. Finally, he really found a dark red mark in an inconspicuous corner.
Depend on!
Isn't this blood!
Zhao Dingsheng was so scared that he called the police immediately, and Lin Xi did not stop him.
After all, no matter whether the car owner hit someone or not, since this is his car, we should contact him to investigate thoroughly.
After receiving the alarm call, the police quickly arrived at Zhao Dingsheng's store, asked him about the situation, and then after a careful inspection, confirmed that the dark red traces in the tiny gap were blood.
They thought Zhao Dingsheng had discovered it while repairing the car, and they praised him for his sharp eyes and keen intuition.
Zhao Dingsheng was extremely embarrassed standing aside, but he didn't dare to take credit for it. He quickly told Lin Xi that he was the first to notice that the car had hit and killed someone.
One of the policemen thought he was joking. The colleague next to him took a look at Lin Xi, seemed to remember something, and asked her uncertainly.
"Excuse me, are you Comrade Lin Xilin?"
Lin Xi nodded and said, "It's me."
The colleague's eyes widened immediately.
Damn, I met the master!
In the past two years, Lin Xi has solved many problems in Jiangyu, including assisting them in handling cases.
So her reputation has spread among a group of people, but few people have seen her.
Now seeing Lin Xi, especially since Lin Xi could tell at a glance that the car had been in an accident, the colleague sighed in his heart again.
Lin Xi's abilities were far greater than they knew.
Zhao Dingsheng felt more at ease when he saw that they knew Lin Xi.
After all, this matter somehow involved some ghosts and the supernatural, and he was really afraid that the police wouldn't believe him if he told the truth.
Fortunately, with Lin Xi's testimony, he could now confidently tell what he had encountered.
The two policemen carefully recorded what he said, and then copied the surveillance footage from his store, intending to investigate the car owner.
Finally, he took Zhao Dingsheng and Lin Xi to the police station, and with their help, he confirmed the identity of the car owner.
The car owner was actually wearing a baseball cap when he entered Zhao Dingsheng's store, almost hiding his entire face under the baseball cap. He probably thought that his face could not be photographed this way.
But what he didn't know was that as long as he had driven through a traffic light intersection or any surveillance camera on the road, his face photo could be found.
