Chapter 6: Private Detectives
"Are you sure? This is where my brother went on a treasure hunt?"
In a storefront in a certain city in the Celestial Empire, a young man with a delicate face and a board brush looked up at the man in front of him with an unusually solemn face.
This is a man wearing a trench coat and a hat. A man with a dusty look on his face.
"Of course, you have to believe in my professional ethics, I am a professional private detective, since I have received your money, of course I will investigate clearly, your brother is not an accident, according to the information I have collected and visited, my brother went to this location for a treasure hunt, but why has not been found so far, this is unknown"
The man in the trench coat nodded and handed over the thick papers.
"This is all the information and information I have collected, Tong Su is not deceitful, if you still want me to help you find it, the price can be negotiated"
"Sure enough, my brother really went to this treasure hunt with all of them, but why hasn't my brother come back until now, what the hell is going on?"
The short-haired boy checked the message in his hand, gritted his teeth, raised his eyes, and said word by word.
"No need, I'm going to check the next thing myself, according to your file, you can know that there are two or three people who went with my brother, I don't believe that none of them know my brother's whereabouts?"
"Yes, if that's the case, it doesn't matter, but I want to remind you that your brother's treasure hunt this time is in Luoai Mountain, a remote mountain village, and there are some bad legends in that mountain village."
The private detective in the trench coat raised his eyes and said word by word,
"Bad legend, what do you mean by that?"
The young man with the flat top asked with a hint of ominous feeling flashing in his heart.
saw that the private detective nodded, and said with a somewhat solemn face
"The remote mountain village where your brother went, legend has it that there are ghosts in it, as long as anyone enters it, no one can stay in this mountain village for more than a week, otherwise they will stay in this mountain village forever, it is a notoriously haunted place. ”
"Haunted place, what are you kidding, what kind of age is it now, who will believe these ghosts and gods, it's just some gimmick to fool people, anyway, I still want to thank you, if I need it, I will look for you again"
The short-haired teenager nodded, scoffing at the private detective's words, collecting the documents and then turning away, behind him, the private detective sighed faintly.
"Young people are young people, and the world is so much more complicated than you think. ”
Zhou Yunzhi took the information collected by the private detective, sat on the bus, and carefully examined it, his face became more and more solemn and ugly.
"My brother disappeared after participating in a treasure hunt three months ago, according to the information collected by this private detective, in addition to my brother, there were three other people who also participated in this treasure hunt, but these three people are now safe and sound back to their homes, but my brother is gone, which is very strange, it seems that I may be able to know where my brother is from these three people. ”
Zhou Yunzhi actually flipped through the documents in his hand gently, then closed them, let out a long breath, raised his head and looked at the traffic outside the car, and the solemn color in his eyes became even deeper.
Zhou Yunzhi, who returned home, put the document in his hand on the table, poured a round of water and drank it.
The house he lives in is in an upscale community, with an area of more than 200 square meters, but it is unusually empty and deserted, although the home is spotlessly cleaned.
However, Zhou Yunzhi knows very well that this is not due to his parents cleaning, but to hire a special part-time worker to clean his own house very clean, sometimes Zhou Yunzhi will feel that he does not believe in his own home, but is more similar to a hotel.
"Son, my father has some business dealings in business, and now he wants to take a plane to negotiate business abroad, your money in the past few months has been hit into your card, if it is not enough, you have a secondary card, you can just brush it yourself, go to school at home, and tell Secretary Zhou directly if there is anything." ”
"My son's mother went to participate in a beauty and makeup event, and I haven't been home for a few days, you can buy what you want to eat, or let Aunt Zhou help you do it, I have already charged a lot of money in your card, you can use it, as for your brother, you don't have to worry too much, how old is your brother, of course there will be a sense of proportion, he estimates that he will go outside to play for a few days as before, and he will naturally come back when he has no money, you don't have to worry. ”
Zhou Yunzhi listened to the phone messages at home, and his father and mother sent messages, and couldn't help but show a sarcastic smile.
"Don't worry, Mom and Dad, all you care about is your work, although it seems to outsiders that our family is very wealthy, I want what I want, I don't lack anything, there are luxury cars in and out, but many times, I prefer that you can have a meal with me and my brother at home, and not just leave a phone message, leave some bank cards"
"Even now, my brother has really been missing for three months, and in your opinion, he just went outside to play for a while, and he didn't care at all, or he didn't worry about such a thing at all, if it was placed in other families, it would have been noisy a long time ago."
Zhou Yunzhi muttered to himself, sighed faintly, sat on the chair in the empty living room, the cold and piercing feeling was even colder than his heart, he opened the file and carefully checked it little by little.
"Even if my brother goes to find treasure, it is absolutely impossible to have no news for three months, the most important thing is that within these three months, his bank card account does not have any flow of funds at all, this is simply impossible, with my brother's kind of personality not spending thousands of dollars a day on credit cards, it is a miracle at all, there is no consumption for three consecutive months, there is not a bill, this is a very strange thing, this is simply impossible"
"Maybe you can find out from this private detective, and you can find out where your brother is from these people who accompanied my brother to the treasure hunt."
"Brother, you must not have anything to do."
Zhou Yunzhi muttered to himself, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes, and he let out a long breath.
