<h2>Chapter 73: Meeting of Old Friends</h2>
Hearing themotion outside,
Zhou Ze, who had been squatting there, sat on the floor dejectedly. The tile floor was cold, but what was colder was his heart.
Oh.
I forgot.
She had no heart anymore.
Opening his shirt, Zhou Ze realized that the empty spot had been restored. In just one night, it waspletely restored.
This made Zhou Ze wonder if he had fallen for the other party’s illusion. Actually, his heart was still there.
Because he could feel the heartbeat, his body was still alive, and there was no problem.
However, it seemed like some kind of emotion had been sucked away.
Some of his instinctive reactions were also marked with forbidden symbols. It was like an invisible wall had trapped him.
Last night, he should have rushed to the victim’s side like Xu Qinng did. Even if his first thought was that the victim was definitely dead, he should have reacted that way.
Just now, when Xu Qinng scolded him, he asked, “What does it have to do with me?”
Actually, in his current statest night, he had first killed the monkey, and then he was dragged to the dining table by the strange old man to taste a unique meal. He was already in a daze.
Even if he had sensed something when those people were ying the Pen Spirit game, he could not have reacted so clearly.
Last night, he had been like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bowstring, panicking at every bush and tree. Any so-called “palpitation” was somewhat ambiguous.
Of course, these were all excuses. Zhou Ze could clearly feel that he was doing ‘corrective teeth’. He could continue eating and drinking, but there were always some restrictions, and he just felt a little ufortable.
This was human nature. No matter how much misfortune or oppression you encountered, as long as there was hope before you, you would always be able to hold on to it tightly and continue to walk forward.
In the past, Zhou Ze was like this in the orphanage and in the hospital.
It was the same for him now.
To put it nicely, it was called tenacity. To put it bluntly, it was better to live than to die.
With both hands on the ground,
She looked up.
He heaved a sigh of relief.
I didn’t have time.
He kept telling himself that he had to find that thing sooner and catch it, throw it into hell, and earn a profit. It was definitely a lucrative achievement.
However, how could they not know that as long as they could not find the thing, as long as one person died, there would definitely be a second or third person?
If a ghost really did kill someone, it would only grow more and more crazy. To a ghost, the act of repentance would be like dissipating into thin air.
Because of this, there would always be people who would mysteriously end their lives in this way.
However, Zhou Ze could not think that way. He could not use this as a target to worry. Otherwise, the pain in his chest would make him wish he was dead.
Just as the old man had said at the dining table, as long as a person lost his conscience, he would not be any better.
At that moment, he looked up in a daze. He saw that there seemed to be a light ck thread on the ceiling.
Suddenly…
Zhou Ze’s body trembled.
He found it.
He had found that thing.
It did note in at all, and it was not in this bookstorest night.
It was on top.
It looked down.
Observe everything here!
In fact, its outstretched hand affected the tip of the pen, and it slowly joined the game.
This was an unimaginable method, a method that surpassed Zhou Ze’s understanding.
“Finally, no more deaths!”
“Ouch… it hurts…”
Zhou Ze, who had just stood up, had no choice but to bend down again.
“We can finally produce results.”
Alright, it did not hurt anymore.
F*ck!
…
“The deceased is Chen Yinong,” Xu Qinng said to Zhou Ze as he chewed Areca.
“The guy who was about to confessst night?” Zhou Ze asked.
“Yes, that’s him. I was listening to the police, and he should have just finished his statement. Who knew that he would appear here right after leaving the police station and jump down?”
The police did not lock onto the actual suspect, so after Zhou Ze and Xu Qinng had finished their statements, the rest of the police let them leave after the investigation. The only limitation was that they were not allowed to leave Tong City during this period of time.
“So, he died of love after returning from the police station?” Zhou Ze sighed. “What a scary wedding.”
“Hey, can’t you be more polite? She’s already dead,” Xu Qinng said to Zhou Ze.
“umtion? Do you need it? I still have some notes. If you need them, you can burn them.” Zhou Ze shrugged.
“I wonder who invented this kind of stupid method of burning money to umte virtue. Do you think burning money can solve all your problems?”
“That sounds like money is the source of all evil. Then why don’t you sell all twenty of your houses and donate them to the construction project?”
“…” Xu Qinng.
“Apany me somewhere,” Zhou Ze said.
“Where?”
Zhou Ze pointed at the tall building on the west side and said, “There.”
…
There were several skyscrapers in the business center, and all of them were connected to each other. Of course, with the abandoned business center, the business owners had already moved out.
This was one of the signs of the city’s overdevelopment. The buildings in the skyscrapers exceeded the daily needs of people, and this kind of huge ghost building often appeared. It was also a waste of resources.
The elevator had stopped moving, so Zhou Ze and Xu Qinng could only go up the stairs.
“Hey, the two of them were on the opposite side when they jumped off the building,” Xu Qinng reminded him. “They were on the opposite side, right above your store and me. Why are you here?”
At this moment, the two of them were located on the west side of Zhou Ze and Xu Qinng’s store. There was almost a hundred meters between them and the ce where they had jumped off a building tomit suicide.
“You’re also a Mystic. Then, what made you, an insider, think that ghosts need to kill people like living people and have to stand in front of them to stab them?” Zhou Ze asked.
“Then what makes you think that thing is here?”
“The groove on the tile.”
The two of them had already reached the fourth floor. Zhou Ze chose a straight line that faced the shortest distance from his shop. Then, he extended his index finger and gently slid it in front of him.
“What does that mean?” Xu Qinng asked.
“If you’re just going to be a curious baby asking me ‘why’, I suggest you act in a mystery television series because there’s always a need for a dumb assistant to stand next to the main character and ask ‘why’ non-stop, giving the main character a chance to act cool.
“Damn, you’re bing more and more sarcastic,” Xu Qinng grumbled.
“Because I’ve always treated you as a brother and not a woman.” Zhou Ze patted Xu Qinng’s shoulder.
“Then you don’t seem to be very gentle with Bai Yingying.”
Zhou Ze moved his index finger again and said, “Actually, this should be a parallel line. Can you understand?”
“You mean that when they were ying the Pen Spirit gamest night, they really did summon something, but that thing did note close. Instead, it was standing at the same spot as us.
“Then, with his own fingers, he controlled the movement of the pen to point at you?”
“Correct.” A smile appeared on Zhou Ze’s lips. “So, that person is very brave. Last night, the people from the Fan Association asked if they could sessfully see a ghost tonight, and the pen pointed at me.
It doesn’t mind offending me, or even killing people beside me. ”
“That crazy?”
“No, in my eyes, this means that it is more valuable, and the result will be more obvious if you send it in. This is a big fish, a big fish that doesn’t even care about ghost business.”
“Isn’t that dangerous?” Xu Qinng mumbled.
“That’s why I called you.” Zhou Ze looked at Xu Qinng. “I said that I treat you as a brother, so if the other party is scary, we’ll die together. Isn’t that romantic?”
“…” Xu Qinng.
“Romantic my foot, you pervert!”
“It’s fine. If worsees to worst, I’ll go to hell. I’ve been there before, and the roads are familiar.”
Zhou Ze gestured again, then took out his phone to look at the line in the photo. He continued to estimate the angle in his heart, then pointed to the roof. “It’s on the fifth floor. There shouldn’t be too much deviation.”
“Hey, at least tell me earlier to bring some magical equipment!” Xu Qinngined as he followed Zhou Ze up the stairs.
“Remember that night when you tamed the white oriole. It doesn’t matter if you have a Dharma artifact or not.”
Xu Qinng was at a loss for words. He scolded, “You heartless thing.”
Zhou Ze paused and smiled.
Then…
The two of them walked to the east side of the fifth floor where the window was.
This ce was supposed to be an amusement park, but it was already covered in dust. Some machinery and facilities that had not been moved were still ced there, and it gave off an extremely deste atmosphere.
Xu Qinng was a little nervous, but Zhou Ze continued to walk forward unhurriedly.
It should be here.
Suddenly, Zhou Ze stopped in front of an air cushion toy city.
“Aiya, long time no see!”
A familiar voice came from behind the mattress.
Zhou Ze looked up.
An old man wearing a dirty Daoist robe jumped down.
“Big brother, long time no see. I’ve missed you so much. Come,e, let’s drink tonight. I’ll treat you and return the favor!”
The old Daoist priest walked over and greeted Zhou Ze.
At this moment…
Xu Qinng instinctively made a hand seal.
“Boundless Heaven and Earth, Profound Heart Technique!”
He bit his index finger and tapped the area between the old Daoist’s eyebrows.
The speed was very fast, without any hesitation.
However, what happened next shocked Xu Qinng. The old Daoist priest nced at Xu Qinng as if nothing had happened and said unhappily,
“Is there something wrong with your wife? Perhaps this is a custom of your family. You like to smear blood on people’s faces when you greet them. This is even more freaking cool than the Dai n’s Water Splitting Festival!
Come,e, let me teach you the customs of our hometown. ”
As he spoke, the old Daoist priest reached out to scratch his crotch as if he wanted to return the favor.
However, at this moment, Zhou Ze suddenly reached out his hand. His nails grew out and grabbed the old Daoist priest’s neck.
Meanwhile, the old Daoist priest had unknowingly produced a bright yellow talisman in his hand. He looked at Zhou Ze in surprise.
“Damn it… You’re faster than me…”
Zhou Ze nced at the talisman paper and exerted force with his nails. The old Daoist priest seemed to have been electrocuted. In the end, he was lightly pushed by Zhou Ze and rolled on the ground.
Zhou Ze ignored the old Taoist priest who was unconscious on the ground and jumped over the air mattress.
Behind the air mattress.
There was someone lying there.
He was covered in injuries.
Found it.
It was indeed here.
