The two black smoke wafting out of the oil-paper umbrella were the old woman and the pigtailed girl in Meng Po Village before.

"Damn, the ghost is not gone......" Xu Lang subconsciously took a step back.

Huang Xinxin chuckled: "They are ghosts, aren't they ghosts?" ”

Xu Lang said: "Xinxin, this ancestor and grandson almost killed me in Meng Pozhuang......"

Immediately, Xu Lang made a long story short and told Huang Xinxin what happened in Meng Pozhuang.

"It turned out to be a soul who was burned to death?"

After hearing this, Huang Xinxin said: "Boss, don't worry, this is your territory, since the tasks released by the system are related to them, they will definitely not dare to make trouble with you in the late night park." Besides, don't you still have a wife? ”

When she said this, Xu Lang felt a lot more relieved.

Huang Xinxin said again: "Since the two of them can be brought back to the Midnight Paradise by you from the oil-paper umbrella, they must also be related to you." ”

Xu Lang thought of the scene where the old woman was going to kill him alive in Meng Pozhuang and pickle him into a dried corpse, he couldn't help but feel a chill, and quickly shook his head and waved his hand: "This fate, let's avoid it!" ”

However, it is also strange that the two ghosts of the ancestors and grandchildren who came out of the oil-paper umbrella at this time have lost their previous fierceness in Meng Pozhuang, and they are a little restrained while being sluggish.

"Boss, I'll take their grandparents and grandchildren to settle down in the utility room first, and teach them the rules here by the way, so that they can know that in this late-night park, only the boss has the final say!"

As she spoke, Huang Xinxin waved out of thin air, the office door opened, and then turned into a cloud of white mist, wrapped in the stunned grandparents and grandchildren, and walked out of the office.

"Damn, just stay?"

Xu Lang watched Huang Xinxin, who was good at asserting, go out with the two ghosts of his ancestors and grandchildren, and said with a depressed face: "What kind of luck am I, when I go out to do a mission, I can bring back two ghosts, and they are also powerful ghosts." ”

Right, the mission?

Suddenly, Xu Lang remembered that he seemed to bring back Meng Po Tang to hand over the task, but the system has not replied yet.

I was about to go to the computer, and suddenly - ding!

Familiar mechanical sounds.

As soon as the screen of the old machine opened, the system finally replied:

"Congratulations to player Xu Lang for completing the 'A Bowl of Meng Po Soup' task! However, in view of the fact that the player Xu Lang triggered the hidden mission during the mission, the player Xu Lang is now notified that the hidden mission is officially launched! ”

"What the hell?"

Xu Lang instantly had a question mark face, what was the hidden task started? Did I say yes? Did I choose to accept it?

Immediately, he asked, "Can I choose not to accept the assignment?" ”

System message: "Yes! ”

Xu Lang's face was happy.

I saw that the system message showed again: "But the player must be solemnly reminded that the hidden task is an associated task of the 'A Bowl of Meng Po Soup' task, so the player chooses not to accept it, which means that the player will give up the 'A Bowl of Meng Po Soup' task!" ”

"And then?" Xu Lang asked.

System message: "Therefore, not accepting hidden quests will ultimately mean that you will give up the quest reward of 'A Bowl of Meng Po Soup'!" ”

"What do you mean? How about playing Riglen with me? ”

Xu Lang's face changed suddenly, and he said angrily: "If you don't accept your hidden mission, you will invalidate the reward of my last mission?" I'm rubbing, you're a scoundrel, you know? System! ”

There was no response.

Xu Lang scolded again: "Can you get face?" Lao Tzu carried out your task of 'a bowl of Meng Po soup', and was almost killed alive and pickled into a dried corpse, and you finally gave me a Ligeren? ”

The system still did not respond.

After Xu Lang was silent for a while, he asked, "What is the content of the hidden mission?" ”

The screen of the classic machine is lit up again!

The system message reads: "Find the person in the photo, pour the collected Meng Po soup into the other person's mouth, and consider the task completed." Mission time: Unlimited. ”

"Damn, you're a quick reply, huh? Don't pretend to be dead? Xu Lang couldn't wait to kick the broken computer.

Immediately afterwards, the system released another photo, in which it was a man in his thirties, and other information was gone.

Xu Lang looked at the photo, looked confused, and asked: "This sea of people is vast, you just give me a photo, where can I find someone?" Do I know if he is alive or dead? Is there any other information about this? ”

The system did not respond.

Xu Lang said angrily: "Nima! Then tell me, what is the reward for my quest to retrieve Meng Po Tang? The little life was almost folded in Meng Pozhuang, and now I don't even know the task reward, and I took a hidden task from you, and I wiped ......"

Now......

The system screen is automatically blacked.

The rogue system is playing dead again!

Didi –

The phone received the photos shared by the system in real time.

Xu Lang stared at the man in the photo, thinking that he was going to pour the Meng Po soup he retrieved into the other party's mouth, that is, this man had something to do with the previous task, or that Meng Pozhuang had something to do with it? In this case, why not invite the two ghosts of the ancestors and grandchildren and ask them if they can see this man?

Immediately, he summoned Huang Xinxin with his mind and asked her to bring her ancestors and grandsons to the office.

Huang Xinxin did not respond.

He walked to the corner again, lit three sticks of incense in the incense burner, and said silently: "Xinxin, come out and take two sips!" ”

The idea sank into the sea like a stone, waiting for a third of the incense to be burned, but Huang Xinxin still didn't come out.

Never mind.

Put it down first, toss for a night, he is also sleepy and tired, and the cat takes a nap on the sofa.

By the time he woke up, it was already early afternoon.

He lit three sticks of incense on the incense burner in the corner of the wall for the first time, and continued to summon Huang Xinxin and asked her to bring her ancestors and grandchildren and two ghosts to visit.

Still unresponsive.

This is strange, he went downstairs, went into the utility room on the first floor, and no matter how much he called, he didn't even see a ghost.

What does that mean? Could it be that after the system released the task, it didn't want me to use the help of the two ghosts to complete this hidden task?

He thought it was very likely, otherwise how could it be so coincidental?

"And how am I going to find this man?"

Xu Lang opened his phone and looked at the man in the photo, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly patted his head and exclaimed, "Why did I forget her?" If you have difficulties, find the police! Besides, I'm still a good citizen who has made meritorious contributions! ”

She pinned her hopes on the female police officer Qin Xiaolu.

He opened the address book on his mobile phone and was about to call Qin Xiaolu, but found that his phone number had not been saved.

There is no way, I can only go to the police station.

Qin Xiaolu's police station was in Yangshu Town, and when Xu Lang arrived at the station, Qin Xiaolu was preparing to get off work.

She had a good impression of Xu Lang, and last time she also entrusted Xu Lang's blessing to solve a case and was praised by her superiors. So when she heard that Xu Lang was coming to ask for her help, she didn't refuse, but she also took the opportunity to knock on the bamboo and said: "That's it!" You treat me to a meal, and by the way, let's see what the hell is going on, and I'll think about whether I want to help you! ”

Xu Lang also ate for a day, so he decisively agreed: "Deal!" ”

He and Qin Xiaolu went out of the police station, found a nearby ramen restaurant, ordered two bowls of beef ramen, and specially asked the boss to add double beef.

"Huh! You're too stingy, aren't you? Just treat me to a bowl of ramen? Qin Xiaolu said with disdain.

Xu Lang smiled: "Add double beef, are you still stingy?" ”

He raised his hand in the direction of the cash register and shouted, "Boss, give me another tiger dish." ”

"Just add a cold dish? Or is it plain? You're too picky! Qin Xiaolu despised again.

Xu Lang was not embarrassed, shrugged his shoulders, and said with a smile: "I'm not in the early stage of my business, the conditions are limited, when I finish paying off my debts, you will have a big meal when I turn back!" ”

Although he has won several system bonuses recently, Xu Lang still plans to save and pay off Qiu Peiren's debt as soon as possible.

Qin Xiaolu also knew the situation at Xu Lang's family, in fact, she still admired Xu Lang for being young, but he had shouldered the burden of the family.

She smiled and said, "I'm kidding you, in fact, when I get off work, I usually just have a bowl of ramen or a plate of egg fried rice!" Say, what's the matter with me? ”

Xu Lang asked: "Three years ago, a shroud shop called Meng Pozhuang in the old street of the comprehensive market suddenly caught fire, and the family of the shroud shop was burned to death. Have you heard of this case? ”

As soon as he heard the case, Qin Xiaolu suddenly became interested.

She said, "Three years ago, I came to the office. But the shroud shop fire case you mentioned had a great impact on Yangshu Town at that time. There must be information on the case in the archives of the office. Why did you suddenly ask about this case? ”

Xu Lang took out his mobile phone from his pocket, found the photo, and then handed it to Qin Xiaolu, asking, "Can you help me find out who this man is?" ”

"What are you doing with him? Who is he? Qin Xiaolu looked at the man's photo and asked with a frown.

Xu Lang shook his head and said, "I don't know who he is, I only know that he has something to do with this fire case." ”

"No, this case has been closed before, it was an accidental fire, not arson!" Qin Xiaolu said.

"I didn't say he set fire to the shop, I just wanted to know who he was and where he was. But my only clue is that he has something to do with a shroud shop. Xu Lang said.

"What are you looking for him?" Qin Xiaolu asked again.

Xu Lang said: "I was entrusted by someone to give him something. ”

Xu Lang can't say, find him, and then pour Meng Po soup into his mouth, right? Otherwise, Qin Xiaolu thought he was crazy.

"Then I may have to go back to the office and find out the file of this case and check it." Qin Xiaolu thought for a moment and said.

When Xu Lang heard this, he said happily: "Okay, I'll wait for you at the door of the police station!" ”

Qin Xiaolu said happily: "I haven't promised to help you yet." ”

At this time, the owner of the noodle restaurant brought two bowls of steaming beef noodles and brought them over.

Xu Lang smiled: "After eating my noodles, don't you help with this little favor?" Don't forget last time, I risked my life for you! ”

"Uh......"

Qin Xiaolu hesitated for a moment, and finally decided: "Okay, just check the information of the old case, it shouldn't be a mistake!" ”

When Xu Lang heard this, he secretly thought, as long as you, a person who doesn't play cards according to the routine, will you still care about making mistakes?

Sure enough, I heard Qin Xiaolu say again: "Hehe, the main thing is that I was also aroused by you, and I want to know that this person has something to do with the shroud shop." Here, send me a picture. ”

Xu Lang snorted and said, "Add WeChat first." ”

"Good. You sweep me. Qin Xiaolu took out his mobile phone.

After eating the noodles and coming out of the noodle shop, Xu Lang and Qin Xiaolu returned to the police station.

About half an hour passed.

Qin Xiaolu walked out of the police station with a solemn face.

Xu Lang was waiting for her at the door, and when he saw her come out, he immediately greeted her: "It's fast enough!" ”

"Hmm," Qin Xiaolu replied in a low voice, his face a little unpleasant.

Xu Lang asked, "How is it?" ”

Qin Xiaolu asked, "Xu Lang, are you sure that you are entrusted by someone and have something to hand over to him?" ”

Xu Lang nodded: "So, did you find this person in the photo?" ”

Qin Xiaolu: "Yes, I found it." You said that you were entrusted to find him, and I am afraid that you will disappoint you. ”

Xu Lang asked, "What do you mean?" ”

"His name is Deng Youliang."

Qin Xiaolu said quietly: "He is the son-in-law of Meng Yuanmei, the owner of the shroud shop, but three years ago, he died!"

He also died in the fire of the shroud shop! From top to bottom, a family of four, all of them were buried in the fire, and no one survived! ”

Xu Lang: "......"
