If Zhu Botuan frequently used the internet here or had some kind of accident, then someone would definitely remember him. The fact that no one remembers him proves that he probably doesn't use the internet here often.
As for the boss saying he would keep an eye out for this person, that was even more unnecessary, since they couldn't keep an eye on a dead person anyway. However, Ya Zi didn't explain that the person he was looking for was already dead.
Finding no useful clues in the first internet cafe, Ya Zi went to the second one, only to discover that the owner of the second internet cafe was not human, but a gray rat spirit.
This gray rat spirit was very old. His human form was a middle-aged bald man. The moment he saw Ya Zi, he was terrified by the aura emanating from Ya Zi and even stammered when answering questions.
"Sir, hello, is there anything I can help you with?"
The gray rat spirit boss stood trembling in front of Ya Zi, barely daring to meet Ya Zi's gaze.
After Ya Zi saw that the gray rat spirit was the owner of the internet cafe, he was no longer as polite as before. He directly took out Zhu Botuan's photo and his work ID and handed them to the owner, saying, "I am from the management office. I am here today to ask if you have seen this person."
All the staff in this internet cafe are gray rats. According to the gray rat boss, they are actually running a family business.
A large group of trembling gray rat spirits were summoned by the boss and lined up in front of Ya Zi to take turns looking at the photos. Although they were all very afraid of Ya Zi, none of them dared to speak. They answered whatever Ya Zi asked, and their answers were either nodding or shaking their heads.
"None of you have seen this person before?"
Ya Zi sat on a high chair, looking down at the group of gray rat spirits and asked, "All of you, look carefully and try to recall. What are you trembling about? I'm not going to eat you. I don't eat rats."
The middle-aged, bald, gray-skinned rat boss, trembling, boldly said, "Sir, we've never seen this person before!"
Seeing that their leader had answered, the other gray rat spirits all shook their heads, indicating that they had never seen this person before.
"Alright, fine, since we've never met, then forget it."
Seeing their state, Ya Zi had no choice but to get off the chair. As soon as he jumped down, the gray rat spirits surrounding him were instantly terrified and scattered in all directions, running away as if Ya Zi had turned into a big cat and was about to bite them.
Ya Zi was speechless when he saw their behavior. He shook his head and said, "What are you doing? Why are you so cowardly? Didn't I tell you I don't eat rats? Why are you running away?"
Even the gray rat spirit boss kept his distance from Ya Zi, stammering, "I'm so sorry, we...we're just too afraid of your presence, there's nothing we can do about it~"
"Tsk tsk, a bunch of cowards~" Ya Zi walked to the door and said, "Alright, I'm leaving then, thanks for your cooperation."
Seeing that Yazi had finally left, the gray rats that had been hiding elsewhere dared to come out. A girl walked up to the bald man and said, "Dad, who is this monster? He's so scary! His aura is terrifying."
"I can't tell what he is either. Sigh, let alone you, even your dad is afraid of him. But thankfully he's gone now."
"The gray rat spirit boss said, patting his chest."
After leaving the second internet cafe, Ya Zi went to the third and final one. The police had only found three internet cafes for them. The owners of the first two internet cafes said they had never seen Zhu Botuan. If the last one also said they had never seen him, then the lead through the internet cafes would probably be lost.
Actually, Ya Zi had already guessed when he came to the internet cafe that he wouldn't get anything. After all, Zhu Botuan didn't go to internet cafes often, and the owner of the internet cafe encountered countless people every day, so how could he possibly remember so many people?
So, before heading to the last internet cafe, Ya Zi had already contacted Yin Ni and Ye Dongfeng. He asked them how things were going and if they had made any progress. If not, they would have to implement the final plan: summoning the Ouija board.
They all suspected that Zhu Botuan's death was related to the Ouija board, but they had never tried to summon it. However, if they still couldn't find any useful clues this time, they would have to try summoning the Ouija board.
