Chapter 222: Midnight Haunted House 9
Faced with Ye Jian's questioning, Su Qingyun did not answer, but returned the report in his hand to Xu Xinghe.
She said, “Let’s look at the others.”
Ye Jian took the report from it, unfolded it, took a look, and then said "oh".
"Seven years ago, four years before Yang Huihui died." He returned the report to Xu Xinghe, not caring at all about the few words written on it. He said, "Let's look for it again and see if we can find out when Yang Huihui met her husband. Then we can finally know what kind of person she was."
After saying this, he said with some regret, "If I had known I had to make a breakthrough with Yang Huihui, I shouldn't have put Yang Huihui's ghost in the garbage bag just now."
He apologized to Su Qingyun, "I'm sorry, Captain, I was reckless this time. I will be more careful next time."
Then he opened a drawer next to him and began to rummage through it.
Although Ye Jian opened the drawer and searched, his expression was very casual.
He rummaged through the books, then asked Su Qingyun and Xu Xinghe, "Did you discover anything?"
"What's the matter?" Su Qingyun asked.
But Xu Xinghe responded, "Are you saying that the things placed in this room are all Yang Huihui's, and they are not very valuable?"
"Yes, that's right. Another point is that some things here shouldn't exist anymore, like the report you just found. But they do. Does this mean that this room isn't actually part of this house, but the room Yang Huihui lived in before she married into the Zeng family?"
Su Qingyun shone the flashlight around the room. The furnishings in the room were indeed different from the previous three rooms. Although the second room was purely Chinese in style, the furniture inside was high-end.
This room is a bit simple.
"So this is a clue for us?" Su Qingyun was very satisfied with this conclusion. It proved that the copy had returned to its original appearance, and the rules and clues were given. Although there were dangers, if one was smart enough, one could complete the task.
"Yes, these are all clues." Ye Jian flipped through the book again and finally took out a small black notebook from a secret compartment.
He handed the notebook to Su Qingyun, "This should be Yang Huihui's secret."
Then he went to look for other things, maintaining his casual attitude.
Su Qingyun opened the small black notebook. There were some miscellaneous things written in the notebook, sometimes it was a word, sometimes it was a sentence, but the handwriting was completely different from the suicide note that Su Qingyun had picked up just now.
Is this Yang Huihui’s secret?
But the handwriting didn't look like hers.
Wait, it cannot be confirmed that the suicide note was written by Yang Huihui. Although it was signed by Yang Huihui, it may have been written by someone else.
As for the purpose, it was to create the illusion that Yang Huihui committed suicide, because the female ghost in white had just told Ye Jian that Yang Huihui's death was caused by her.
But this logic doesn't make sense. If a female ghost scares a living person to death, why would she create the illusion that the other person committed suicide?
Also, the female ghost in white admitted that she scared Yang Huihui to death, but she did not remember how Yang Huihui harmed her. Isn’t this too strange?
Su Qingyun felt that instead of rummaging through a bunch of things here to find out the secret of Yang Huihui, it would be better to go directly to find the body of the female ghost in white.
According to the Feng Shui knowledge she had learned during this period, if a vengeful spirit was trapped, it was very likely her corpse that was trapped. The female ghost in white asked Ye Jian for instructions more because she wanted him to help her get out of trouble and let her leave here.
Su Qingyun threw Yang Huihui's diary on the table and suggested, "Let's go find the corpse of the female ghost in white."
"In this house?" Xu Xinghe asked.
Su Qingyun nodded, "Yes, I think her body should be in this house."
Xu Xinghe looked at Ye Jian. He wanted to know what Ye Jian was thinking.
"Sure." Ye Jian answered as casually as ever.
If a woman's body is in a house and she doesn't want to be discovered, there are actually not many places to hide the body.
Either buried in the yard, hidden in the basement, built into the wall, or hidden in a secret compartment in the house.
Su Qingyun and the other two walked around upstairs and downstairs, and finally eliminated three places.
The first place is the basement, and this house doesn't have a basement.
The second place is the wall mezzanine, which this house has no mezzanine.
The third place is a secret compartment. All the furniture in the house can be moved, and no piece of furniture has a secret compartment.
Finally, the three men stood in the yard.
The pomegranates on the pomegranate tree are still dazzling red.
Su Qingyun shone a flashlight on the pomegranates on the pomegranate tree and asked Ye Jian and Xu Xinghe a question.
"If we dig up this yard and find a body, should we call the police?"
Although it is a copy, things must be handled logically.
Also, their mission here was to clean out the haunted house, but the result of the cleaning was that the yard of the house was dug up into a mess. Was this against the rules?
"This is worth pondering." Ye Jian stood next to Su Qingyun, holding a toolbox in one hand and a garbage bag in the other, his expression unusually serious.
Xu Xinghe turned sideways and asked Su Qingyun, "Does your book 'Ghost Hunter' tell you what to do in this situation?"
Su Qingyun glanced at Xu Xinghe and said nothing.
Ye Jian listened carefully and asked teasingly, "Captain Su, have you studied this?"
Su Qingyun glanced at Ye Jian again.
Ye Jian chuckled and took out a small booklet from somewhere. He said, "Yin Qi also gave me some reference materials when I came here. Would you like to take a look at it, Captain Su?"
Yin Qi, Su Qingyun’s brother in the previous copy, is an Onmyoji who knows computers.
Su Qingyun quickly took the booklet and opened it to check.
There were four big words written on the first page of the booklet: Maoshan Witchcraft.
These witchcrafts are all some shady tricks, such as how to suppress a person who died tragically and prevent him from turning into a zombie.
Su Qingyun looked at several treatment methods and couldn't help but complain to Ye Jian, "These are all evil spells."
"Yes, that's why there's a pomegranate tree planted in the yard of this house, in the southeast corner, a very shady place."
"I didn't expect you to know about these evil spells so early on." Su Qingyun put the booklet into her messenger bag. "So, you knew where the vengeful spirit was as soon as you entered the yard, right?"
"I'm not that smart."
"Stop it! The fact that you dare to hook your fingers with the white-robed female ghost proves that you are confident. So what should we do next? You tell me, and Xu Xinghe and I will execute it."
In this matter, Su Qingyun did not trust Ye Jian 100%.
Ye Jian smiled, took out a pair of scissors from the toolbox and handed it to Xu Xinghe.
"Then please, Mr. Xu, go and pick the pomegranates off the tree."
"What about me?" Su Qingyun asked.
Ye Jian: "Come here and hug me."
