Chapter 318 - Changzhou

Chapter 318: Changzhou

In a snack street somewhere in Changzhou, the street lights on both sides were not very bright, but there were a lot of vendors and diners, creating a lively and noisy atmosphere.

A young man slowly walked down the street, holding the hand of a Little Loli,

the fragrance of various snacks on both sides was enough to make other people drool,

but for these two people,

it only made them frown.

Except when they had to eat three meals a day, they would only drink a little bit of the oral liquid of the spider lilies. Normally, they would save as much as possible, but when they didn’t take the oral liquid, the smell of the food was like the torture of ordinary people walking in the garbage.

After walking for a while, they stopped at a dark alley at the corner of the street.

No matter how lively a place was, there were still quiet corners. It was the same here. The Sanitation Workers’tricycles for tomorrow’s work were locked here, and there was a big garbage bin next to it, which was full of stuff.

Because of this, the stalls in the food street were far away from here. After all, the things sold at the stalls were not very clean. Although it was not clean and healthy to eat, if the customers were to lean against the garbage and eat.., probably not many customers would be willing.

Because of this..,

in the entire street, only this place didn’t have the smell of cooking smoke, and there wasn’t any food floating in the air. Although it was mixed with the unique sour smell of the garbage, it made Zhou Ze and the Little Loli let out a long sigh of relief,

they only felt that this place could let people breathe a little more normally.

Zhou Ze looked at the Little Loli and pursed his lips,

the Little Loli turned her head,

“The stars are so beautiful tonight.”

“It’s cloudy today.”

The Little Loli was stunned for a moment and shot a dissatisfied glance at Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze took a step back and looked at her.

The Little Loli clenched one of her small fists tightly at Zhou Ze while her other fist made a rotating motion,

her clenched fist slowly raised a middle finger at Zhou Ze.

Zhou ze shrugged his shoulders,

he didn’t mind,

who asked him to be a neat freak.

He took a deep breath,

the Little Loli walked into the garbage heap with disgust and reached out to throw away the garbage on top.

An exquisite porcelain doll-like girl was rummaging through the garbage heap like a scavenger. If Andersen saw it, he would probably write a story called “The little girl who picks up garbage.”.

Finally..,

after opening a few more garbage bags,

a human face with a bruised face was revealed.

Liu Chuyu, who was originally considered pretty and had the temperament of a Korean oppa..,

was lying down at this moment..,

with a sickly look on his face.

The Little Loli stretched out her hand and patted his face,

“Pa! PA! Pa!”

Zhou Ze’s brows trembled slightly,

he was afraid that the Little Loli would directly Pat Liu Chuyu, who was still alive, to death.

Zhou Ze knew that this was the little loli venting her anger from picking up trash. She didn’t dare to get angry at Zhou Ze. She could only blame Liu Chuyu for not being beaten to such an extent and being thrown into the trash pile.

Fortunately..,

liu Chuyu’s vitality was still quite tenacious,

or it could be said that the other party was disdainful or deliberately didn’t kill him,

after being slapped a few times..,

liu Chuyu leisurely opened his eyes,

he first saw the Little Loli and was stunned for a moment. He didn’t know her..,

then..,

he saw Zhou Ze standing behind the Little Loli,

this man whom he had always hated so much that he wished he could stick a paper figurine to curse him..,

in the next moment..,

he was so moved that he actually shed tears,

he was like an aggrieved baby who was bullied by his classmates at school and came home to cry:

“Sob, SOB, sob… my life… is so bitter…”

..

Liu Chuyu’s home was in an ordinary neighborhood. This guy first bought the house on the bottom floor, then bought the house on the top two floors together. When he opened the door, it was equivalent to a small villa inside.

The decoration of the house was very simple. There were two nice cars parked in the garage, but the decoration of the house was left with a large number of white blanks.

The bedroom was even more ridiculously simple,

a Mat and an air conditioner,

other than that, there was nothing else.

The Little Loli went to buy a lot of medical supplies. Zhou Ze had just bandaged Liu Chuyu’s wounds. Although the external injuries were quite serious, especially the fingerprints on his chest, with the left breast as the center, the five sunken spots were still emitting waves of heat, it was as if he had been poisoned by fire, but the problem wasn’t too big. At least he wasn’t in danger of losing his life.

After bandaging his wounds, Zhou Ze went to wash his hands, then walked back and lit a cigarette.

“Speak.”The Little Loli nodded slightly at Liu Chuyu.

At this time, there was no need to hide anymore,

prey..,

only if you had the ability to catch it..,

it was called prey.

If your prey flipped over and beat you up..,

who was the real prey should have some idea?

Therefore, at this time, Liu Chuyu did not need to hide anymore for fear of losing his GPA. On the contrary, if Zhou Ze could help him catch the prey, he could also share some of his GPA. It could be considered as a form of consolation and compensation, although the big head was not his anymore.

“Originally, I was about to catch him.”

Liu Chuyu had lost two teeth, and it was the front teeth, so when he spoke now, there was a slight air leak.

“That guy has been chased by me for two days. He is very cunning and knows how to hide, but I still tracked him down. He wanted to resist, but his resistance was just like a cornered beast in front of me.”

“Get to the point.”Zhou ze knocked on the windowsill.

“What’s the point?”Liu Chuyu asked.

“Start with the part where you were beaten up.”

“…”Liu Chuyu.

After two seconds of silence, Liu Chuyu continued, “Everything was under my control, and then another guy suddenly appeared. He grabbed me with his claw, and then I felt like I lost all my strength.”

“So the wounds on your body were also left by him?”

Zhou ze pointed at his face.

Liu Chuyu shook his head. “It was that evil spirit that I chased earlier. He saw that I was knocked down and came up to beat me up. It was that person who appeared later who stopped him from continuing. Otherwise, I would have already returned to Hell to report.”

“Okay, I understand.”Zhou ze nodded. “I’ll handle this matter for the time being. After all, you’re my subordinate.”

“I don’t have any objections.”Liu Chuyu appeared to be very free and easy. “I can’t have any objections now that I’m like this.”

“By the way, there’s one more thing I want to ask you. Are there any other ghost hunters in Changzhou?”

“There are two more. They’re together.”

“Where?”

“They’re similar to you. They opened a shop, but it’s a nightclub called ‘dark color.’You can search it with the map software. This nightclub is quite famous in Changzhou.”

“They’re unmoved when something happens to you?”Zhou ze narrowed his eyes. “Or are they not moved at all by the reward of hunting down evil spirits?”

“Boss, let’s put it this way. Their attitude toward life and work is even more exaggerated than yours.”

“What do you mean?”Zhou Ze looked at Liu Chuyu.

“I mean they’re saltier than you,”the Little Loli explained.

“Heh.”

Zhou ze did not continue to dwell on this topic. Instead, he asked, “Do you have any clues about the evil spirit that we caught?”

“I know. In his past life, this guy was a bus driver. Because of his own mistake, he caused a car accident. Including himself, eleven passengers died because of him.

“I found out his identity, so I deliberately set up a surveillance system near his home and found his traces.

“Anyone who has been reborn wants to go back to their home and see their wife and children.”

“Do you think he will go again?”Zhou ze pointed at Liu Chuyu. “You are in such a state now. If he wanted to go, he would have gone long ago.”

“His wife remarried a long time ago. His mother is very remorseful because of her son’s matter. She has been living in a temple in Changzhou. His daughter worked as a nurse in the hospital a few years ago. She resigned last year and found a job in the temple to take care of her grandmother.

“That temple is still very smart. It has a restraining effect on people like us. I also instructed my lackeys to keep an eye on the grandfather and grandson outside. It’s difficult for them to meet in such a short time.”

“How troublesome.”The Little Loli curled her lips.

“The ghost proof can’t sense their location, do you know that?”Liu Chuyu said somewhat excitedly, “Damn it, they have the ability to hide their aura. You can’t even sense it when they pass by him face to face.”

As he spoke,

liu Chuyu took a deep look at Zhou Ze,

he said,

“Boss, I don’t know if this girl told you…”

“Among the evil ghosts that escaped…”

“More than 90% of them are here to deliver vegetables. Just treat it as a new year’s bonus for us ghost hunters.”

“But there are also some people who have backers who have made arrangements beforehand.”.

“For example… this one.”.

“I spent a lot of effort to find his identity. I worked hard and finally caught him.”

“Since you know he has a backer, why are you still so persistent?”

“Boss, not everyone is as open-minded as you are about making a fortune.”

“I want GPA.”

“I also want to climb up.”

“I don’t want to stay in this place for more than ten years, or even sixty years!”

“Lin Ke, change his dressing again in an hour.”Zhou Ze instructed the Little Loli before he walked downstairs.

After Zhou Ze walked out, the Little Loli bent down and looked at Liu Chuyu who was sitting on the mat. “The speech just now was pretty good. After some editing and polishing, he can enter the textbook now.”

“Let’s call it ‘my struggle — ghost errant chapter’.”

“Or ‘when you die, not only do you have to love, you also have to struggle’.”

“These are my heartfelt words,”Liu Chuyu said very calmly.

“Yes, I know. I believe in You.”

“All the ghosts in the city are very strange.”

“A little unprofessional?”The Little Loli helped him describe it.

Liu Chuyu smiled.

The Little Loli also smiled and asked, “How did you die in your previous life?”

“The company worked overtime continuously, and you died from overwork.”

The Little Loli pouted,

“In this life, I feel that you are very likely to follow the same path. People who are too active and too eager to climb up often don’t get the good results that they expect.

Instead, they just muddle along and wait for death to come,

good Things will come to you one after another.”

“Hehe, where did you hear such nonsense?”

The Little Loli was stunned for a moment. She then looked at the door that Zhou Ze had just left and shook her head:

“I didn’t hear it,

i saw it.”
