Chapter 164: Old Godmother and Penguin
After listening to Li Tai's words, Xu Lang felt a little incredible: "If it's really like what you said, then things will be complicated." ”
According to the information released to the public, this is an ordinary traffic accident, which was caused by the perpetrator's irregular driving.
But Xu Lang decided in his heart that this must be someone behind the father and son of the Pan family, that is, Chi Guoguo's murder.
"However, we detected the residual yin qi from the driver who caused the accident." Li Tai's face was serious, "Now the driver is still lying unconscious in the hospital." ”
"Yin Qi?" Xu Lang was staggered.
"yes, I was taken aback when I first learned about this result. After discussing with several seniors of the spirit team, we all agreed that the driver was probably taken on by the evil ghost, which caused the accident, but now, the evil ghost has disappeared. Li Tai said.
"Could it be that the father and son of the Pan family have a relationship with ghosts?" Xu Lang hadn't thought about this problem, according to the personalities of their father and son, if there were really ghosts around him like him, then he would definitely send ghosts directly to rob him of his paradise, and he would use those indiscriminate small means?
Besides, he and Pan Chaoyang have also met, and they didn't find any yin qi residue on each other's bodies.
Li Tai shook his head and said, "Not necessarily. However, their family is engaged in real estate, and generally speaking, those who do real estate believe in feng shui. Among the feng shui masters or Taoist priests they know, there may be some who understand this. ”
"Using the upper body of a demon to create an accident, there is no evidence at all." Li Tai patted Xu Lang on the shoulder, "So I want to ask you, do you have any ideas?" ”
Xu Lang was silent for a while, and said, "I don't have a clue for the time being, but have you looked for Mrs. Ghost?" What's her opinion? ”
He had just come from the ghost market, and he hadn't heard the ghost lady mention it, did she not know, or was she unwilling to get involved?
"The Ghost Lady avoids me, and her attitude is already obvious, so we can only rely on ourselves." Li Tai said helplessly, "I have asked the liaison officers scattered throughout the East China Sea to pay close attention to this matter, I hope to find some clues." ”
Next, the two talked about a lot of things, including Zhang Xiaojie.
It is said that Zhang Xiaojie is now being thrown into a police academy for training, and only after passing all indicators will he be considered for recruitment to the spirit case team.
……
Donghai Central Hospital, a ward.
Xu Lang looked at the perpetrator who was lying unconscious on the bed, and indeed felt a faint trace of yin qi from the other party's body.
"Qin Xiaolu, come in." After looking at it for a while, Xu Lang found that Qin Xiaolu was still standing outside the ward and beckoned.
This ward was guarded by the police, so when Xu Lang asked to come and take a look, Li Tai arranged for Qin Xiaolu to be with him, which could save a lot of formalities.
"I won't go in, when I went in before, the yin qi on his body suddenly became very chaotic, causing his physiological reactions to become chaotic and almost killed." Qin Xiaolu pointed to his chest and said, "I have righteous qi in my body, ordinary ghosts can't carry it, let alone weak yin qi?" ”
"I almost forgot about it......" Xu Lang suddenly realized.
At that moment, a dialog box appeared in his mind.
"Player Xu Lang, you have obtained a new mission."
"Mission Name: Old Godmother."
"Difficulty: Unknown."
"Mission Statement: Not yet."
"Mission Restrictions: None."
"Mission Reward: Unknown."
"Ask the player
Xu Lang, do you accept the task? ”
Xu Lang was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly replied: "Player Xu Lang, accept the task...... By the way, if I complete this task, can I let Huang Xinxin come back? ”
"Hello player Xu Lang, this is not the scope of this conversation. In addition, the assessment and training of park staff are all responsible for the system, and you only need to do the tasks. The system replied.
"Hehe, get out." Xu Lang replied angrily.
……
Qin Xiaolu was in the corridor at the door of the ward, watching Xu Lang walking back and forth in the ward, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
She looked at the time a little impatiently, thinking that she would be able to go back by bringing Xu Lang to take a look, but who knows, Xu Lang didn't have the slightest intention of leaving.
"Xu Lang, do you see anything?" Qin Xiaolu finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Seeing this, Xu Lang walked out of the ward: "There are no clues for the time being, but it is basically certain that the ghost has been over." ”
"Then let's do it first, you go back to the park to rest first, and I'll go back and continue to work overtime." Qin Xiaolu breathed a long sigh of relief.
"That's not going to work, I'll have to go to where he lives, see his living conditions, and maybe find some clues." Xu Lang believes that it is definitely not groundless for him to receive the task at this time. The system is reminding him that this case is likely to be inextricably linked to the old godmother.
"This ...... Okay, I'll take you! ”
……
Donghai City, Nanqiao Village in the southern suburbs.
"Is this where people live?" Xu Lang looked at the dirty room in front of him and frowned.
This room is a small single room, it looks like it is only about ten square meters, and there is a small bathroom separated from it, except for a bed and a small desk, and a small wardrobe with a single door, basically nothing else can be placed.
The floor, bed, and table are littered with clothes and other daily necessities, as well as leftover fast food boxes.
Qin Xiaolu subconsciously covered his nose: "This driver's name is Gao Bin, and he is an orphan, married and divorced. has a son and a daughter, but they are all with his ex-wife, so he will give his ex-wife a sum of money every month, and when the maintenance of the two children, he saves money and rents here. ”
Qin Xiaolu paused, and continued: "His ex-wife said that Gao Bin used to like to gamble twice, but she often lost, and she lost so much that she mortgaged her house, so she divorced. Later, he can be regarded as a prodigal son, he is quite diligent in his work, and the child support will be paid more on the statutory basis. We have informed his ex-wife that we should be able to come over in the next two days. ”
"Okay, then let's look for it first and see if we can find the old godmother." Xu Lang looked around and said.
"Old godmother? What are you looking for this for? Qin Xiaolu felt very strange.
"I'll talk about it first." After Xu Lang finished speaking, he walked directly to the messy desk and looked for it, without explaining at all.
Although Qin Xiaolu was a little unhappy in his heart, he still helped find it.
"Xu Lang, there's an old godmother's glass bottle here!" Soon, Qin Xiaolu found an old godmother's bottle at the top of the wardrobe and handed it to Xu Lang.
Xu Lang took it and took a look, it was an empty bottle, the inside had been cleaned, and even the paper attached to it had been torn off a lot.
"Look for it again." Xu Lang looked at it for a while, but he didn't see anything famous, so he could only continue to look for it.
But looking around, neither of them could find anything else related to the old godmother.
"Strange, how could it not be?" Xu Lang wiped his head
on the sweat.
"Xu Lang, I listen to your tone, as if you are very sure that if you find the old godmother, you will definitely find it, can you tell me, what does this have to do with the old godmother?" Qin Xiaolu is a straightforward character, Xu Lang only spoke half of what she said, and she was almost curious to death.
"I can't explain it to you yet, let's go, there shouldn't be any clues here." Xu Lang took the glass bottle of the old godmother he found before and prepared to leave.
"Wait, you can't take this away, we police can't just take away things from the scene when we investigate the scene." Qin Xiaolu snatched the bottle and walked to the wardrobe next to the bed, intending to put it back in its place.
Xu Lang was stunned for a moment, feeling a little strange, why should an empty bottle be placed on the top of the cabinet?
"Get out of the way, I'll see."
Xu Lang lifted the futon and stepped on the bed, looking at the top of the cabinet.
Sure enough, where the old godmother was originally placed, there was a transparent plastic document bag pressed with something in it.
Xu Lang took down the document bag and opened it to see that inside was a penguin-patterned pendant, flattened, about the same size as a bank card, almost thin.
"What is this? It has to be put on the top of the cabinet in a document bag, and pressed by the old godmother? Xu Lang looked at the ornament in his hand with a disappointed face, and lost his mind for a while, "But this penguin is quite cute." ”
Qin Xiaolu looked at the penguin ornament and frowned: "Why do I feel a little familiar...... Do you suspect it has anything to do with this case? ”
But she can't remember where she has seen it when she thinks about it, and in her opinion, the pendant and the old godmother shouldn't be able to hit the eight poles, right?
"It's hard to say."
Xu Lang said as he took a photo of the penguin ornament and sent it to Lu Xiaopang, asking the other party to check what it was.
It turned out that Lu Xiaopang's strength was really not covered, and in less than three minutes, a message was sent.
"Boss, this penguin ornament is a peripheral product launched by a local milk tea shop called 'Penguin Milk Tea' in Donghai City, and it is said to be very popular with little girls. Later, due to the problem of image infringement, the sale was stopped, resulting in this pendant becoming a limited edition, and the price of a pendant in the second-hand market was as high as 2,000 yuan. ”
After reading Lu Xiaopang's information, Xu Lang asked, "Qin Xiaolu, how old is Gao Bin's daughter this year?" ”
"It looks like it's ten years old, what's wrong?" Qin Xiaolu thought for a moment and replied.
Xu Lang has a little more affection for Gao Bin, and it seems that this ornament should be his gift to his daughter.
"Let's go, I'll take you somewhere."
……
Dongli Road in the southern suburbs, penguin milk tea shop.
Penguin Milk Tea Shop is a local chain brand in Donghai City, and there are about forty or fifty stores in the city.
Most stores close at 10 p.m., but this one on Dongli Road is a special one that closes a few hours later.
Because there is a large vacant land here, which is used as a free parking lot by many truck drivers, even in the dead of night, there are still many drivers who transport goods here, and Gao Bin often parks here.
"Well, it tastes really good, it's better than the special drink in the group." Qin Xiaolu took a sip of milk tea fiercely, chewed the pearl with a satisfied face and swallowed it, and finally closed his eyes and savored it for a minute.
"Xu Lang, why did you invite me to drink milk tea? Xu Lang...... Xu Lang? What are you looking at? After Qin Xiaolu finished reminiscing, he was about to ask Xu Lang what was going on, but he didn't expect that Xu Lang kept staring at a forest in the distance, motionless, as if he had lost his soul.
