Chapter 66 I want to... ask him
No one wants to become like Lao Zhang, and no one wants their child to face the same situation as him.
At this moment, everyone overturned the cold-blooded impression they had of him that morning at the funeral, when they saw him not shed a tear.
It is said that men do not easily shed tears, but when a person is truly in extreme grief, can they really cry?
Zhong Wan didn't know either, but looking at his bloodshot eyes and his dejected expression despite having avenged his great enemy, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
She held Lin Yan'an's hand and whispered, "Wait with me until the people around us disperse."
"I want to... ask him if he wants to see Uncle Zhang."
"good."
Lin Yan'an responded softly.
"What last time?"
He Lixin, who had sharp ears, overheard this and curiously leaned over to ask, "What did Wanwan mean by seeing Uncle Zhang one last time?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan'an turned his head and glanced at Zhong Wan.
The two exchanged a glance, and Zhong Wan nodded slightly, looking at He Lixin thoughtfully, and said, "See Uncle Zhang's ghost."
"What?!"
He Lixin's voice suddenly rose, and Zhong Wan quickly reached out and pinched him hard, whispering, "Shut up!"
"What's wrong?"
Hearing this, He Liqun asked curiously, "What happened to Lixin again?"
"Nothing!"
He Lixin quickly shook his head, covered his mouth with both hands, glanced around furtively with his eyes, and whispered to Zhong Wan, "What do you mean by that? Is there really something fishy going on?!"
Looking at his fearful yet excited eyes, Zhong Wan rolled her eyes speechlessly: "Yes, there is, a 'qù liǎng'."
"What do you mean?"
He Lixin became even more excited and asked in confusion, "Is this a ghost? I've never heard of it before?"
He Liqun had just walked over when he overheard this conversation. He couldn't help but laugh and pat He Lixin on the shoulder: "Of course you have! With your strong curiosity, you'll be here soon."
"What?"
Seeing this, Lin Yan'an couldn't help but cough twice, and explained to him with a forced smile: "In folk tales of the strange, this kind of ghost that is 'killed by curiosity' is called a 'ghostly ghost'."
He Lixin: "..."
His smile froze on his face, then vanished, and he stared blankly at Zhong Wan, letting out a heavy snort.
"What's wrong? What exciting thing did I miss this time?"
Pei Xingyu rushed over when he saw them. Seeing He Lixin's sour face, he asked curiously, "Uncle Lixin, what's wrong? Tell me so I can cheer you up?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan'an gave him a cold glance: "Pei Xingyu!"
Pei Xingyu trembled instantly, secretly glancing at his uncle's cold face, and quickly turned around to hide behind Zhong Yang.
Zhong Yang silently glanced back at him, then casually moved away.
Hilarious! Pei Xingyu doesn't even dare to face Lin Yan'an's cold stare, but he does?
Pei Xingyu...
Looking at the isolated and helpless Pei Xingyu, He Lixin chuckled and said, "Is your commotion, Uncle, interesting?"
Pei Xingyu: "It doesn't look good."
Zhong Wan, with her sharp eyes, noticed Zhang Mingyue's distraught figure and quickly tried to chase after her.
But with the crowd surging around her, she couldn't find Zhang Mingyuan in no time.
Zhong Wan frowned, glanced at the workshop, then at Lin Yan'an, and asked helplessly, "What should we do? Go to his house tonight?"
Lin Yan'an reassured him in a low voice, "Don't worry, there will be a way."
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at the police tape outside the workshop, then glanced at the public officials still there and frowned slightly.
"Is his ghost confined inside and unable to come out?"
Zhong Wan shook her head: "I don't know. I clearly saw him outside yesterday afternoon, but he didn't seem to come out after he went in."
"I finished drawing this morning, but there's still no sign of it. Looks like I'll have to find a way to get in."
At this point, Zhong Wan turned to look at He Liqun. Looking at the crowd that had already dispersed, she leaned closer to him and asked in a low voice, "Brother, are they still here tonight?"
Hearing this, He Liqun glanced in the direction she was pointing and shook his head: "He shouldn't be there."
"Can we go in tonight?"
He Liqun frowned and looked at Zhong Wan with confusion: "Why go in?"
Zhong Wan hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'll explain it to you in detail when we get back."
That's what she said, but after returning home, she avoided the elderly and told other elders about her situation.
However, their reactions were vastly different, and their attitudes varied greatly.
Especially after hearing that she wanted to secretly cross the police line and invite Zhang Mingyuan's family in to meet Old Zhang, not one of them agreed.
Zhong Wan sighed helplessly and glanced at Zhong Suisui, who was nestled comfortably in Lin Yan'an's arms.
Looking at its contented little face, he said, "Sui Sui, get me some paper and pen."
【Meow~ Okay.】
Before anyone could even react in surprise, a flash of black light appeared in Zhong Wan's hand, and paper and pen instantly appeared in her previously empty hand.
"Wow, Zhong Wan, are you serious?"
"Wanwan, so Old Zhang's ghost really exists?"
He Lixin and He Liqun asked in shock, one after the other.
He Qijiang frowned, looking at the thing in her hand, and pondered, "Since that's the case..."
"Liqun, those police officers who just arrived were from the Municipal Public Security Bureau, right?"
He Liqun nodded upon hearing this: "It should be. I saw two of them at the Municipal Bureau."
He Qijiang nodded, his hand trembling as he lit a cigarette and took a deep drag: "Alright, I'll try it tonight and see if your 'heart follows the pen' technique works."
“I’ll call Licheng and ask him to find a way to check with the police station.”
Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan asked in confusion, "But doesn't Brother Licheng work at the museum?"
He Qijiang raised his hand and waved to her, "Oh, it's nothing. Let him try to find someone he knows at the police station, or have him go and take a look."
"Anyway, that Zhou Bapi was only taken away recently, so he won't be at the Municipal Bureau anytime soon,"
Zhong Wan...
That's fine, it's just that her older brother will have to make do.
Anyway, she had already tried to persuade her.
"What?!"
Sure enough, after her uncle finished explaining his purpose on the phone, He Licheng's shocked and bewildered voice instantly filled the entire room.
"Dad! My dear Dad! You know I work at a museum! How... how could I possibly get information from the police station for you?"
He Qijiang calmly said, "That's not important, just go."
"Where am I supposed to go? I'm still at work!"
"I need to ask for leave."
He Licheng was speechless: "It's not that easy, I'm already too busy to handle everything!"
"I don't care, you go check it out right now, that's it, I'm hanging up!"
He hanged himself quite easily.
But He Licheng was having a terrible headache looking at his phone.
He rolled his eyes speechlessly at the disconnected phone, then rubbed his hair.
I'm really worried.
But since his father called personally, he couldn't ignore it.
I wonder what's gotten into his dad this time.
He Licheng took his phone and made a call without hesitation.
