After returning home, I took a quick shower and slept until 1pm. I woke up just in time to receive a call from Lu Fei. He said that Zhu Zhongqi came to see him early in the morning. When he talked about his appearance, he had two dark circles under his eyes. He was stunned for a long time and couldn't continue laughing. Needless to say, he stayed in the mourning shed for three hours last night, especially with two corpses under the mourning shed. Who wouldn't be scared to death? It was good enough that he could run to Fuxing Hall so early in the morning.
I could see Lu Fei was laughing until tears came out of his eyes even through the phone. Was he really that happy? After he finished laughing, he told me that after 3 a.m., Zhu Zhongqi got a few close friends and secretly took the bodies of his wife and two nephews to the crematorium. They paid a large sum of money to the boilerman and burned the bodies to ashes before dawn.
In the morning, I went to the hospital to find someone to smooth things over and get a death certificate. That was the end of the matter. As for my wife's parents and my nephews, I had already gotten them. My wife's parents died early, and she only had a sister who married far away in the south. It was easy to fool them. The two nephews were from the countryside and their families were poor. After the bodies were cremated, they ran over and said that they were hit by a car at night. They lied that they had found a fortune teller and said that it was very unlucky to have another funeral at that time, so the bodies had to be cremated that night. So they made the decision themselves without notifying their families.
Their parents didn't believe it at first, but when they got an astronomical amount of money, they immediately believed it. Alas, after hearing this, I felt very upset. Some poor families, especially the older generation, have little exposure to books and a weak legal awareness. Even if they knew that this matter was questionable, they finally compromised for the sake of money.
As long as the two families can be appeased, things will be much easier. The body has turned into ashes, no one will pursue it, and once it is buried in a few days, everything will be fine.
Zhu Zhongqi asked Lu Fei to preside over the funeral this morning because his daughter was going to be buried. This guy didn't know that the coffin was actually empty. His daughter's body was split into two parts by Xiaoxue and strangely sucked under the swimming pool. Lu Fei agreed to the request, presided over the entire funeral in the morning, and buried the coffin in the Zhu family's ancestral tomb. This guy didn't forget to extort a lot of money from Zhu Zhongqi in the end, and asked me to go over in the afternoon to have a good meal.
I must go there in the afternoon. I must catch that skinny guy. No matter if he is a hermaphrodite from Nanshan or not, he has killed so many people. I want him to pay with blood. I had a simple meal, said hello to my mother, and ran to the store to put the ghost bottle on the shelf. Although there is no magic water in the magic bottle, it still has a great deterrent effect on ghosts. With the Azure Dragon, White Tiger and Eight Coffins to suppress ghosts, it is better to leave Xiaoxue in the store than to carry her with me.
Then he took the bus with Shen Bing to the county town. Wang Zijun came early in the morning. He was a waiter at Fuxing Restaurant. If he arrived late, Lu Fei would definitely give him a hard time. It didn't matter if he got a hard time, but it would give his love rival a chance to retaliate. So this guy was very dedicated. He came to open the store early in the morning, cleaned the inside and outside of the store, and sat at the counter to welcome customers with a smile.
Today is the county fair, and the New Year is coming soon. Many people "invite" statues and other evil-repelling items to their homes, so the shop is doing very well. As soon as I walked in, I saw a room full of people gathered around the counter. Even Wang Zijun was too busy to handle it. Lu Fei, Ma Yunxi, and Qu Mo were sitting in the back room drinking tea and chatting, which made me feel very unfair for the monkey.
After we went in, I said to you guys, you guys let the monkey kid work so hard outside, while you guys are sitting here doing nothing. Lu Fei curled his lips and said, the monkey kid wanted to show off his broken mouth and not let everyone help, but he didn't expect there would be so many customers today, he deserved to be so busy.
Shen Bing and I smiled and sat down. Ma Yunxi poured us tea. Lu Fei told me about his proud moments this morning. After the funeral, Zhu Zhongqi was really generous and gave him 10,000 yuan as a reward. I thought to myself, this is not just a reward for hard work, but also a hush money. If that's the case, 10,000 yuan is a little too little.
Lu Fei said that when he went to Zhu's house this morning, in addition to Houzi watching the store, Qu Mo and Ma Yunxi also followed quietly, hiding in the crowd, and never found the dark and thin boy. They were just thinking that this person might have left here and returned to his old nest.
After hearing this, I began to wonder, this is not impossible. He used Zhu Zhongqi's daughter to catch a scapegoat, killed Xiaoxue, and made her lose her nature and kill three people. Although Xiaoxue was not arrested by the underworld, his mission was completed and he retired, so it would not be easy to catch this bastard.
If the real murderer is not caught, Xiaoxue's unjust case will not be redressed, and the three innocent lives that were killed, will they just let it go? I touched my nose and thought for a long time and said that I felt that the strange black hole under the swimming pool was related to the dark and thin boy, and there was also a large number of corpses in it, which Xiaoxue mentioned as "a hundred corpses of resentment".
I plan to go into the villa tonight to find out what secrets are hidden underneath. Maybe I can find out the true identity of the thin and dark boy from that.
We drank tea and chatted until dark. Lu Fei called Zhu Zhongqi and said that the villa was not suitable for living within 49 days because of the sudden death of four people. Zhu Zhongqi said that he would move out as soon as the funeral was over. How could he dare to live in a "haunted house" alone? In the end, he kept thanking Lu Fei for his kind reminder and said that he would treat him to a good meal in a few days when he recovered.
This guy is not stupid. He moved out by himself. The villa becomes an empty house, which will be convenient for us to act at night.
After nine o'clock in the evening, the six of us took our weapons and went out in a group to the Zhu family villa. To be honest, this house had four people killed, there were snakes lurking, and hundreds of corpses were hidden under the swimming pool. It was a real haunted house. Fewer people came, and I felt uneasy.
When we got outside the big iron gate, we turned around and looked around. The street was dark and quiet, with no one walking. Looking back inside, in the darkness, we could vaguely see the appearance of the small building and the swimming pool. It was eerie and strange, which made me feel creepy.
None of us spoke, but we winked at each other, turned over and went through the gate. In order to prevent the underworld snake from suddenly entangled my feet, I smeared chicken comb blood on my shoes and painted an exorcism spell with cinnabar on the soles.
A few people were like thieves, not daring to turn on the flashlight, crouching and sneaking to the side of the swimming pool. Although they were nervous along the way, nothing unusual happened. When they arrived at the pool, looking at the dark water, a chill rose in their hearts. I whispered to them: "Qu Mo and I will go down, and the four of you can wait upstairs. If you find anything wrong, throw the water-dividing charm in, and Qu Mo and I will exit safely."
Lu Fei, Shen Bing, Wang Zijun and Ma Yunxi all nodded. Qu Mo and I were well prepared when we came here. We wore swimsuits. With our physiques, it would be no problem to swim naked in winter. Just when we were about to take off our down jackets, we suddenly found a light on in a window of the small building. The six of us were so scared that our faces changed drastically and we got goose bumps all over our bodies!
