Chapter 20
Shu Yuan held the cup of water in her hand, her fingers unconsciously stroking the wall of the cup. The warm temperature along her skin and blood vessels slightly soothed her chaotic heart at some point.
She was thinking about a problem.
If the death of Bu Jun and his three companions was really caused by the factory director's order to kill the little ghost, how can Bu Jun and his three companions seek justice?
The police can handle evil deeds committed by evil people, but what about evil spirits? Who are the people behind the evil spirits?
As if he could guess her thoughts, Rong Jing reminded her, "Regarding the matter of Bu Jun and the other three, you can go to the Yancheng Police Station and tell them you want to contact the special department. After that, a dedicated staff member will contact you regarding the relevant matters. Just tell them everything you have encountered and your suspicions, and that's all."
Police station?
These two words are familiar, but what is the special department?
Does such a thing exist?
She asked uncertainly, "Can I tell them about the little ghost that came after me and you saved me?"
Rong Jing nodded: "Of course."
After rescuing Shu Yuan in time and roughly figuring out the situation on Shu Yuan's side, Rong Jing saw that it was getting late and there was another Xie Changshi waiting in the garage downstairs, so he didn't plan to stay any longer and chose to get up and say goodbye.
After thinking for a moment, he turned around and looked at Cheng Puyu who was looking at him eagerly, and suggested: "You stay and send Sister Shu to the special department and come back."
Cheng Puyu didn't mind, but it said, "I still have to go to work."
Rong Jing: "I'll ask for leave for you."
Cheng Puyu quickly made an OK sign and turned to look at the woman who was stunned by the word 'work'. He smiled shyly and said, "Don't worry, I'll be guarding outside tonight. No more little devils will bother you."
Shu Yuan nodded: "Thank you for your help."
…
Rong Jing took the elevator back to the garage.
Because he was going out on a whim, Xie Changshi wasn't dressed as formally as usual. The collar of his casually thrown black shirt wasn't buttoned tightly, revealing a large expanse of cool, pale skin. With his seat pulled back, he held his phone in one hand, seemingly browsing some news.
Then, she caught a glimpse of Rong Jing's figure from the corner of her eye, raised her eyes, and asked him, "Is it done?"
Rong Jing nodded and climbed into the car: "Yes, there was a little devil who wanted to kill her, but luckily Cheng Puyu arrived in time. By the way, I asked Cheng Puyu to stay at Sister Shu's house and take her to the police station tomorrow. Cheng Puyu needs to take a leave."
"I'll tell Song Qing."
"Then shall we go home now?" Rong Jing held up her face and looked at the man with her dark eyes, the pleading of 'please say you won't go home' almost overflowing from her eyes.
The little zombie hasn't learned how to hide his thoughts yet.
Especially when driving to Senhe Community, the boy's eyes lit up when the aroma of cumin, pepper and salt from the roadside barbecue stalls drifted into the car through the windows that were not completely closed.
Xie Changshi took the initiative to ask: "Want to eat barbecue?"
Rong Jing pretended to ask, "Is it okay?"
"Can."
More than ten minutes later, at a roadside barbecue stall, the owner looked at the three large pots of grilled skewers stacked up like a small hill in front of him, and his eyes twitched.
It was already two o'clock in the morning. He was about to close the shop and go off work because no customers came. But suddenly a big customer showed up. For a moment he didn't know whether to be happy or cry.
He wiped away the tears that were brought on by the smell of fireworks and greeted them warmly: "Please feel free to sit anywhere. The drinks and wine are in the cabinet. Take whatever you want to drink and we'll pay together later."
Rong Jing's eyes were fixed on the beer.
Xie Changshi glanced at him, turned his face to the side, and stared directly at the pure pomegranate juice drink, saying coldly: "Look at this."
Rong Jing: “…”
The little zombie struggled: "Not even a drop? You drink the rest."
Xie Changshi: "I want to drive, unless you are willing to carry the car back."
The little zombie continued to struggle: "We can take a taxi first and have someone drive it tomorrow."
Xie Changshi answered the previous question: "Not even a drop."
Rong Jing: “…”
All right.
No, then no.
Pomegranate juice is delicious too.
And pomegranate juice looks a lot like blood.
Although the beginning was a bit disappointing, by the time the pomegranate juice was opened and the skewers were served, Rong Jing was already engrossed in eating.
He handed the skewers he thought tasted great to Xie Changshi and urged him, "Xie Changshi, this is delicious, eat it quickly."
Xie Changshi nodded.
After having a midnight snack, it was already four in the morning when I got home.
Rong Jing was extremely excited and did not sleep, while Xie Changshi took a light nap for two hours and then went to work as usual.
The other side.
Shu Yuan got up early, changed her clothes, and drove to Yancheng Police Station with the information she had sorted out overnight.
Cheng Puyu sat in the back seat and didn't speak, but Shu Yuan would occasionally bring up the topic.
"You said before that you were going to work. Do you ghosts have to go to work too?"
Shu Yuan was really curious about the world she had never set foot in. She originally thought that according to the stories and cognition she had heard since childhood, the little ghost was going to be reincarnated, but she didn't expect that Cheng Puyu still had to go to work.
You go to work when you are a human, and you have to go to work as a ghost. Isn’t this too unreasonable?
Cheng Puyu touched his nose and replied in a low voice: "Normally, no."
Shu Yuan hesitated and asked, "Then what are you doing..."
Cheng Puyu: "I belong to the general case of brain disease."
Shu Yuan: “…”
Shu Yuan's mouth twitched, and for a moment she didn't know what to say. Fortunately, just as the atmosphere quieted down, the gate of Yancheng Police Station was right in front of her. She parked the car and got out. She didn't see Cheng Puyu following her. She turned around with a puzzled expression, and heard Cheng Puyu say, "I'm not going in. I'll wait for you outside."
"good."
Walking through the door and meeting the receptionist, Shu Yuan pursed her lips and said skeptically, "Hello, I'm looking for the special department."
The receptionist's smiling expression changed slightly, and then immediately said, "Wait a moment, I'll take you there."
The special department is on the sixth floor of the police station.
When Shu Yuan appeared at the door, following the receptionist, she couldn't help but glance at it twice more. Then, she asked herself a soul-searching question: What was carved on the door? Why did it look so much like garlic?
"Enter."
Just when Shu Yuan was puzzled, a young man's voice was heard from inside the door.
Shu Yuan walked in and looked up, seeing a young man wearing a T-shirt, sweatpants and sneakers. He should be no more than 25 years old, with black hair dyed gray and a flashing chain around his neck. He had a kind of...out-of-place feeling.
But she heard the receptionist call him: "Deputy Chi, this lady wants to see you."
Chi Bai looked at Shu Yuan, his nose twitching slightly as he smelled a faint scent of ghosts. He vaguely guessed the purpose of Shu Yuan's visit, but he was a little curious: "How did this lady know about the special department?"
Shu Yuan glanced at the office's decorations, noticing those items that were completely different from the formal style. She quickly said, "A Taoist priest named Rong Jing recommended me here."
Mirror?
Chi Bai drew out an "oh" and glanced down at his phone screen. The account name [I am your father] was unusually conspicuous.
He pointed to a seat beside him and said, "Sit down and talk."
Shu Yuan always remembered Rong Jing's warning and told him everything, including her suspicions, in detail. After she finished, Chi Bai narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you talking about Danfeng Group?"
Shu Yuan was stunned, and after a moment of silence, she nodded.
The Danfeng Group is also well-known throughout the country. Although it cannot compare with the Xie family, which has a century-old history and has regained its glory in recent years, it is also a household name.
This is also why many colleagues expressed regret when Shu Yuan resigned.
"Wait a moment." Chi Bai said, then turned around and made a call, "Duan Yunshuang, I have a victim who came to report a case. He suspects that someone from the Danfeng Group is using ghosts to torture and kill employees. Please come over."
Duan Yunshuang returned to Tingyang from Yingzhou yesterday. He didn't find any useful clues on this business trip, and Danfeng Group couldn't become a breakthrough. Duan Yunshuang was so angry that he cursed for three hours in the group chat yesterday.
When Chi Bai opened his phone, he was shocked by the 999+ prompt for a long time. After reading the content, he felt that Duan Yunshuang could publish a book.
The title of the book is: How to Greet Idiots Elegantly.
Duan Yunshuang was still angry when he suddenly heard a victim reporting a case against Danfeng Group. He immediately got up from the bed, said "Wait, I'll be there soon" and threw away his phone.
Chi Bai hung up the phone and asked Shu Yuan, "Do you have anything to do today? If you don't, you can walk around the police station and see the scenery. When Director Duan from the Tingyang Special Department comes over, she will talk to you in detail."
Shu Yuan: "I'll go tell the friend who brought me here."
"good."
…
Cheng Puyu slowly floated to Changhua Street.
Rong Jing asked for a whole day off for it. It happened that today it was supposed to continue coordinating the original project with Chen Rong of Jiang Group. It didn't want to talk to the other party at all, so it simply took the day off to run away.
"You're here, just in time. Sister Shu transferred some money to me. Should I take you shopping?"
This time, Cheng Puyu had been responsible for catching the little ghost and protecting Shu Yuan, so a large portion of the money Shu Yuan paid should belong to Cheng Puyu. However, simply giving Cheng Puyu money was useless, so Rong Jing found a funeral goods store and planned to buy some things for Cheng Puyu.
So that Cheng Puyu wouldn’t be jealous of everything he sees.
Sure enough, Cheng Puyu's eyes lit up when he heard Rong Jing's words.
"Really?"
"Well, we'll go after lunch."
The funeral supplies store was recommended by Duan Yunshuang. I heard that the owner is very awesome and has opened several chain stores in several nearby towns. The one in Yancheng is the largest and has the most complete range of items.
Rong Jing hailed a taxi and took Cheng Puyu in. The driver greeted them warmly and asked with a smile, "Handsome guy, are you going to Tianditong? Are you from here or somewhere else?"
Rong Jing and Cheng Puyu felt strange after hearing this. Apart from local customers with needs, why would people from other places go to the funeral products store?
The driver saw Rong Jing's strange expression through the rearview mirror and waved his hand. "Hey, although our Tianditong sells funeral products, you know what? It's very popular and it's considered a check-in attraction for foreign tourists."
While waiting for the green light, the driver took out his mobile phone, found a certain app, searched, and then handed it to Rong Jing.
Rong Jing looked down and saw that the owner of the account had posted a photo of himself and a luxurious paper villa, and said: I came to check in Yancheng Tianditong, planning to buy a big villa to burn at home for my grandfather who passed away 18 years ago, so that he can slap my father in his dreams whenever he wants, so that he won’t nag me all day long/smile
Rong Jing: “…”
Cheng Puyu: “…”
