Chapter 730: Dedication and happiness (first update!)

Views:

Zhou Ze was neither hurried nor slow, but Lawyer An was the fastest. He soon appeared at the school gate with the old Taoist priest. Across the road from the gate was a residential area adjacent to the school. It was a bit old, but because of its unique location, many faculty and staff as well as even more students rented houses here.

Lawyer An was crossing the road with the Taoist priest while sensing the aura. There was not even a traffic light at the school gate or on the opposite side, only a large crosswalk.

However, just when Lawyer An and the old Taoist were halfway along the sidewalk, they saw a young man in a black down jacket standing in the middle of the road with a confused look on his face, less than a hundred meters away from them.

There was an extremely clear desire on his face, and his hands were spread forward as if he was reaching for something extremely precious.

His hair was messy, but his eyes revealed a kind of hysterical madness.

Lawyer An immediately moved closer to that side, keeping an eye on the vehicles around him, but he started running.

Galloping on a busy road is what the protagonists in many action movies like to do.

In action movies, basically the protagonist can jump around however he wants, whether he's racing a car or riding a motorcycle, and nothing will happen to him.

But in literary and artistic love movies, the heroine often likes to run into the car and get hit by a car, and then some jewelry as a token of love falls beside her.

Obviously,

Wang Shen is not the protagonist.

at this time,

All he could see was money falling from the sky, not only RMB, but also US dollars and Euros. In front of him, there was also his favorite counselor, Mr. Bai.

The "fantasy" world created based on money was constantly beating at his mental defenses. The defense line, which was already shattered like mud, had completely collapsed at this point. He was immersed in this beautiful fantasy and had no idea where he was or what he was doing.

The old Taoist also wanted to run after it, but just as he moved forward to the side, a black car rushed past him. The old Taoist steadied himself and narrowly avoided it.

One hundred meters,

Fifty meters,

Twenty meters,

Ten meters!

Lawyer An completely narrowed the distance.

Closer,

Closer,

Getting closer!

Lawyer An even saw the shadow behind the young man.

The black shadow tilted its face towards the young man's ear as if telling something.

This caused the young man's face to always maintain a perverted blush.

"The underworld is in order, the dead..."

Lawyer An ran while pressing his hands on his chest.

However,

Just then,

A black Audi directly hit the young man's body, and the young man turned to the other side like a top, and then a small truck drove over.

"Baji!"

The eruption of blood plasma,

The tearing of the body,

Humans have once again proven themselves to be vulnerable and incapable of being crushed by the steel tools they themselves created.

It was like the sound system was suddenly turned off at a passionate concert.

Everything fell into dead silence at this moment.

The old Taoist who was running towards this side only saw a black shadow falling towards him.

The old Taoist subconsciously reached out and caught it.

It's a human head.

There was a smile of desire and greed on his face.

"mom!"

… … …

The scene was cordoned off.

The road was blocked.

Traffic police and police officers were dispatched directly.

Many police officers who were already at the school rushed over.

Including school leaders.

When Zhou Ze was sitting on the round stone pillar at the school gate with a crutch, he saw the hurried figure of the vice-principal.

suicide,

It's actually contagious.

In fact, deep down in their hearts, most people have had the urge to "I want to end my life" in their minds at some point in time, but there are usually very few people who commit suicide because this urge will be quickly suppressed by themselves.

Once there are news of suicides around you one after another, and they are "the same kind" as you, (the same kind here can refer to people of the same age group and the same profession), then the impulse in your heart will seem to find a suitable outlet, and you will start to follow suit.

Of course.

The school leaders insisted that it was just an accident.

Although the deceased was a student of our school,

But he should have died in a traffic accident, not the so-called suicide!

What a joke! Three students committed suicide in school or at the school gate in a short period of time. How can we keep the lid on this

Who dares to cover it

It's like throwing firecrackers under a manhole cover, and then continuing to stand on the cover. Aren't you afraid of being blown away

But soon,

After the road surveillance video and the school gate surveillance video were retrieved,

The school leaders who had originally insisted that it was an accident fell silent.

Damn it,

Could it be an accident

It was clearly a case of seeking death, he ran into the car on his own initiative!

Of course, the affairs of the living world had nothing to do with Zhou Ze. Lawyer An walked to Zhou Ze dejectedly and gritted his teeth.

He was very unwilling.

Just one step away,

It's really just one step away.

As a result, the man died.

Then the shadow disappeared quickly.

Disappeared so fast,

It's jaw-dropping!

As a former top inspector, Lawyer An felt very ashamed that a ghost had harmed two people right under his nose.

The most important thing is, it would be fine if this ghost was similar to the old man who was Master Xu Qinglang last time.

That old man is really fierce.

Lawyer An felt that apart from his boss, no one in Tongcheng could control him, at least for now.

But this ghost is obviously not strong, it is just an ordinary evil ghost, otherwise it would not come and leave suddenly every time.

Three people have died.

The first one, Sun Tiecheng, was because the incident happened suddenly.

So,

Next, Xue Yuying and Wang Shen died in front of everyone in the study.

Being teased by a ghost in such an unrespectable way, even a lazy person like Boss Zhou felt really angry.

People often say that they need to think from other people's perspective, but that is just an excuse to compromise. If one is strong enough and the cost is small, who wouldn't want to act arbitrarily

At this time, Lao Zhang came over, holding Wang Shen's mobile phone in his hand, and said:

"He also borrowed a lot of online loans."

It's online lending again.

Zhou Ze nodded.

road:

“Are there any specific findings?”

If you just defend passively like this, not to mention that the effect is very poor and it's purely a matter of luck, the opponent's quick coming and going will make it too late for you to deal with it even if you are waiting.

"Wang Shen's phone has been sent to the technical department to be unlocked, but I have investigated several online loan apps before, and there are four online loan apps that Xue Yuying and Sun Tiecheng both took loans from.

I conducted a focused investigation on these four companies.

I found out that one of the apps has been closed for three months.

It's called 'lack of money'."

"Bankrupt?" Lawyer An was a little surprised.

"Yes, because the country has vigorously cracked down on and rectified the campus loan market over the past year, and many unqualified online lenders have been banned. This 'Queqianbei' was not directly banned, but it seems that it went bankrupt due to poor management."

"In the past two years, anything related to finance has been difficult to do." Lawyer An sighed, "When p2p exploded, many financial-related industries were implicated and exploded as well."

"I don't want to hear you discuss economic issues, unless you have the ability to persuade the underworld to start the banking business."

Zhou Ze stood up and continued:

"Let's start with this 'borrow money'. Where is the company registered?"

"It's Tongcheng."

Zhou Ze was thoughtful after hearing this.

Generally speaking, ghosts have limitations. They may seem magical and unfathomable, but for a ghost from a common city like you to travel thousands of miles to Chengdu to cause trouble is like a fairy tale.

At this time, Lao Zhang's cell phone rang. He answered the call. After a while, he hung up the phone and looked at Zhou Ze and said:

"Wang Shen's phone was unlocked, and the last app he used before he died was 'Queqianbei'."

"Can we still find the company's operating location in Tongcheng? Even the old one."

"We've found it. It's in Chongchuan, not far from South Street."

"Oh, it's still at our doorstep."

Zhou Ze held up his crutches.

"Then go and have a look."

… … …

Anything that has a bright side must have a dark side.

here,

It’s really not far from the bustling area of old downtown Tongcheng, just two blocks away, but it’s like Mexico next door to Uncle Sam.

dirty,

chaos,

Difference,

Dilapidated old neighborhood,

A path full of sewage.

It is filled with the flavor of the urban-rural fringe area in the 1990s.

It is said that the original plan was to demolish the bridge and redevelop the area, but it failed due to various reasons. At that time, real estate construction was in full swing.

Later, as the price and cost of demolition became increasingly high, this place was shelved and became a "scar" in the urban area.

The headquarters of "Queqianbei" is in this alley. It seems to be a rented residential building. There is still its sign hanging at the entrance of the alley. Even though the company has gone bankrupt long ago, there are still traces of its existence.

Just follow the signs and go straight in.

Zhou Ze leaned his crutches against the ditch and stood on one side.

Lawyer An, the Taoist priest and Lao Zhang were all standing behind him.

Everyone stopped together.

I don't want to take a photo here.

For example, on a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, everyone in the bookstore was here to exorcise demons and monsters.

It's because everyone saw it through the window glass.

The online loan company that should have closed down long ago,

There was still a lot of noise inside.

A busy office scene.

In the house,

The ghostly aura is spooky.

This is a model of professionalism that requires one to continue working even when one dies.

Zhou Ze lit a cigarette.

Laughing and joking:

"I really should find a camera that can film them and send the photos to the underworld.

They are all dead ghosts.

See how dedicated others are.

And how shameful it is for them to live their lives in vain.”

Upon hearing this, the old Taoist immediately prepared to flatter him and agreed:

"The boss is right. The photos are developed.

Should we also hang one in our bookstore...?”
