Gao Xiuyun immediately covered her face and cried, "I didn't know he was really going to jump. I thought he was lying to me. Whenever we argued before, this man would threaten me with jumping off the building. I thought he would do the same this time, so I didn't believe him. I never thought he would actually jump, and even walk to the roof to jump. He died so miserably."
Zhang Meng pushed open the door to the second house on the left on the second floor. Apart from a hint of ghostliness, she didn't see even a ghost hair inside.
"By the way, Comrade Gao, you just said in my house that Director Zhao asked you to go down and accompany him, and he also said that he wanted to kill someone for revenge. Do you know who those people are who dragged him into this?" Zhang Meng looked at her and asked.
Gao Xiuyun wiped the tears from her eyes and nodded. "Of course I know. Ever since the incident in Yecheng, Lao Gao has been mumbling about something for the past two days, constantly shouting a few names. I've been hearing those names for a few days and they're very familiar to me."
Zhang Meng was surprised when he heard the word "Yecheng". Isn't Yecheng the mysterious underground place that Lao Xu and his team destroyed two days ago? He didn't expect that the deceased Deputy Director Zhao was actually related to that place.
Suddenly, she didn't feel much sympathy for his death.
"Then can you tell me the names of those people?" Zhang Meng looked at her and asked.
Gao Xiuyun's face immediately turned ferocious, and she shook her head vigorously, "I won't tell you. Those people killed Old Zhao, and they must pay with their lives. They must die too."
Zhang Meng saw that her resentment was growing, so she quickly comforted her, "Okay, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. Don't be too angry. The resentment in you has been growing along with the hatred in your heart. If you continue to complain, you will become a resentful ghost."
Just then, Lao Xu's figure ran up from below.
"Comrade Zhang, could you please come with us? There's been another murder in the north of the city, and the cause of death is the same as Deputy Director Zhao's wife's!"
When Zhang Meng heard this, she nodded without hesitation.
Just as she was about to leave, Gao Xiuyun, who was standing behind her, strode up to her and said, "Master Zhang, can I go with you?" Zhang Meng hesitated.
Gao Xiuyun was afraid that she would not take her with her, so she quickly said, "Master Zhang, just let me go. If you see that damned ghost of mine, I can help you persuade him."
Zhang Meng immediately sneered, "Your husband has already killed someone. With this, I can beat him to ashes."
Gao Xiuyun's face changed and she looked at Zhang Meng with fear.
She had forgotten that the person in front of her was a powerful fortune teller who was a top-notch expert in exorcising ghosts.
Thinking that she was now a ghost, Gao Xiuyun was so nervous that she didn't know what to do.
Seeing this, Zhang Meng's tone became much better. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, you haven't hurt anyone. Even if you are a ghost, I won't hurt you."
When Gao Xiuyun heard her words, the worry on her face disappeared and she looked at Zhang Meng with an embarrassed smile.
Old Xu, who was standing nearby, saw Zhang Meng talking to no one and immediately felt uneasy. He stared around with a defensive look on his face, "Comrade Zhang Meng, is there a ghost here?"
Zhang Meng nodded. Old Xu's face turned pale with fear, and his legs couldn't help but tremble. "Comrade Zhang Meng, why didn't you tell me earlier? If you had told me earlier, I could have gotten something to protect myself."
When I came up just now, I was only concerned with inviting people and didn't bring anything.
Zhang Meng smiled. "You don't need to bring anything. The ghost here is Deputy Director Zhao's wife. She has never harmed anyone, so you won't be in any danger."
Old Xu's face was still very pale. He clasped his hands together and bowed to the surroundings, saying, "Mrs. Zhao, please don't blame me if you have any questions. Please don't come to me. I am only following orders."
Seeing this, Zhang Meng shook her head and went downstairs first.
Seeing this, Old Xu quickly chased after him, shouting, "Comrade Zhang Meng, don't walk so fast. Wait for me."
Soon, two people and a ghost came down from upstairs and walked to the police car parked there.
"Comrade Zhang Meng, do you want me to take you there?" Old Xu asked, pointing at the police car.
Zhang Meng glanced at her bicycle and shook her head. "No need. I came here on my own bicycle. You just lead the way and I'll follow you on my bicycle."
Old Xu nodded.
Just as Zhang Meng was about to ride her bicycle, she was suddenly stopped by Old Xu behind her.
Zhang Meng turned around and saw him hesitantly asking, "Comrade Zhang Meng, what about Mrs. Zhao? Is she sitting in your car?"
Zhang Meng looked at Gao Xiuyun floating in the air and shook her head, "No!"
Without waiting for Lao Xu to ask any questions, Zhang Meng had already ridden away on her bicycle.
Seeing this, Old Xu looked around with panicked eyes and muttered with a tearful expression, "Comrade Zhang Meng, why is he like this? He's in the middle of a conversation and doesn't even tell me where Mrs. Zhao is right now?"
Old Xu, feeling very nervous, got into the police car. He always felt like something was watching him from behind. With cold sweat on his forehead, he drove the car trembling with fear to catch up with Zhang Meng.
After walking for about half an hour, the police car that had already run ahead suddenly turned a corner and stopped in front of the gate of a residential building.
When Zhang Meng and the others came over, it happened that it was Lao Hong who was handling the case here.
"Old Hong, what a coincidence, we meet again." Zhang Meng greeted him first.
As soon as Lao Hong saw them coming, he immediately asked the people around him to deal with the matter first, and then walked over here.
