After returning to the provincial capital, as soon as he got out of the car, Long Quan pulled Qiu Yan and me aside:

"Mr. Qiu, I'm sorry, I'm not going back to the company!"

Qiu Yan was stunned for a moment and asked:

"You don't think we're accountant to you, do you?"

Long Quan smiled ashamedly:

"I actually came to the company to investigate you, and it's not good to stay any longer now, besides, since Old Man Chen has shown up, I have to go to him, this is my mission!"

As soon as she heard the word mission, Qiu Yan was relieved:

"Okay, I will inform the finance to pay your salary to your account, and in addition, this time I will go to Xiangxi, your remuneration will be the same as Zimu, and I will let the finance call you together."

Long Quan is also welcome:

"Hehe, then thank you Mr. Qiu!"

Finally, Long Quan looked at me again and said with a smile:

"Brother He, I know you will definitely continue to investigate, but I still hope that you will listen to my advice and don't get involved, the matter here is too complicated and dangerous, and it will not be good for you to continue to dig deeper!"

"Hey, you're still worried about Old Man Chen, you don't have to worry about me here." I didn't think so, and I went back to the Word.

"Okay, that's it, I can only say that I can do it myself, Brother He, Mr. Qiu, I hope we won't meet again in the future, I'm leaving, you take care!"

After saying that, Long Quan turned around and left, he didn't pack any luggage, just took the ancient sword like that, like a chivalrous man!

After that, I followed Qiu Yan back to the company first, then to meet her uncle, and finally back to the hotel where I was staying.

Everyone welcomed us back, and people in the know pestered us to ask this and that, but strangely, there was no Xiang Wei in these crowds!

During this period, Qiu Yan didn't tell Chen Fangyuan, she didn't say it, I naturally wouldn't mention it, when she met her uncle, Qiu Yan just said that she had found some clues, but the clues were still very vague, and she needed to flip through the information again.

I knew that Qiu Yan would rather carry all the burden alone than tell her family the bad news, Qiu Yan looked at me and smiled, I nodded at her, and the page was turned like this.

Uncle Qiu Yan thanked me very much, saying that as long as I was willing to help Qiu Yan continue to investigate, no matter whether there was a result or not, he would thank me heavily.

Of course, I knew that this thank you must be a lot of money, but now, after all this experience, I am not very interested in it.

Before going home, Qiu Yan sent me back to the hotel first, and it was not until I walked into the elevator that Qiu Yan put down the smile she forced out, Qiu Yan's face was full of exhaustion, I looked a little distressed, and wanted to comfort and comfort her, but until I got out of the elevator, I couldn't speak.

"I'm so tired, can I lend you a shoulder to lean on?" Qiu Yan stood in the elevator and said to me who had already stepped out of the elevator.

I smiled:

"Mr. Qiu is serious, as long as you are willing, my whole person is yours!"

Qiu Yan only curled her lips in the face of my joke, and then she walked over and gently rested her forehead on my chest.

I didn't know what to do, I wanted to hug her, but I was worried that it would look frivolous, so I just stood motionless.

After about a minute, Qiu Yan raised her head:

"Much better, thank you, He Zimu."

"Hey, what's this, you just have no problem relying on it for a day."

"No, I mean thank you for always being by my side, I wouldn't have been able to get this far without you alone."

Qiu Yan was very close to me at this time, and she said these words at this time, I thought to myself that the room was next to it, which direction should I go in this ambiguous atmosphere?

Before I could answer, Qiu Yan raised her fist and lightly slapped it on my chest:

"Alright, go back by yourself, we'll see you tomorrow!"

After speaking, Qiu Yan turned around and walked into the elevator.

Looking at Qiu Yan who disappeared at the elevator entrance little by little, I couldn't help but secretly scold myself for being useless, she is a woman, I am a man, it is obvious that there is a spark between us, at this time, it is the best comfort for her and me?

There's no way, everyone is gone, what else am I entangled?

I returned to my room with my backpack and arranged the "loot" on the TV table in a row: a corpse pen, a cinnabar inkstone, a woodcutter, a tortoise shell, and the mask that Qiu Yan gave me.

Looking at these things, I can't help but wonder what role my ancestors played in these mysterious pasts, and how much my ancestors knew about that evil ritual.

After these days of investigation, I found that almost all the incidents have the figure of the corpse chaser, but the embodiment is not very prominent, I thought that this is very similar to the toast that Qiu Yan introduced to me at the beginning: very low-key, but with extraordinary ability.

In addition, Chen Fangyuan will also drive out corpses, which I didn't expect, obviously, those living dead in the cellar are from his handwriting, but where did he learn the art of chasing corpses?

Thinking about it, I felt that my eyes began to grow astringent and my brain became heavier.

We hadn't had a good rest until now when I escaped from the cellar, and now sitting on the warm and fluffy mattress, I feel safe and comfortable like returning to my mother's arms.

So, I lay down and fell asleep without even taking a shower.

The next day, I was sleeping soundly when I heard a knock at the door.

At first, I thought it was Qiu Yan, but after thinking about it carefully, I don't think it's right, this doesn't match Qiu Yan's temperament, although Qiu Yan is a little tough, but she is still very feminine in her bones, he can't be so impolite.

The waitress is even more unlikely, if I complain, it will make her lose her job.

Who could it be?

I walked to the door with a stomach full of resentment and looked out of the cat's eye.

I saw a beautiful little girl standing outside, about twenty years old, with big eyes and knocking on the door.

The anger in my stomach was dispelled by the beauty of this girl, but when I heard this knock at the door, I could not help but become irritated again.

I opened the door with a "brush" and asked sharply:

"What are you doing? Who are you looking for? ”

The girl grinned at me, first tiptoed into the room, then squeezed in past me, looked the room round and round, then sat down on the sofa and dangled her feet, and said:

"Well, yes, the presidential suite is different, He Zimu, okay, it's a comfortable day!"

I was directly confused by this girl's series of actions and words, and thought that this was Qiu Yan's relative, but it's not right to think about it, I have seen Qiu Yan's relatives, and I have no impression of this one in front of me.

In order to prevent the embarrassment of recognizing the wrong person, I calmed down and asked softly:

"Who are you? We don't think we've met, do we? ”

"You don't need to know who I am, come with me, someone wants to see you!"

I was stunned, what is this talking about? I didn't know anyone, so I was asked to go with her as soon as we met, but fortunately I was a man, otherwise I would have thought she wanted to kidnap her!

"No, you've got to tell me who's going to see me, right?"

"Oops, you'll know when you get there!" The girl stood up, grabbed me by the arm, and was about to pull me out.

Now I was really a little angry, pulled away the girl's hand, and stepped aside:

"This ~~ This girl, first of all, I don't know you, and I don't know who wants to see me, so I just walked with you inexplicably, isn't it like that?

In addition, I haven't washed my teeth or brushed my face, and I'm sweaty, so you have to let me take a shower! ”

The girl stomped her foot, pouted and sat back on the sofa, and complained:

"Are you a big man afraid that I will eat you? It's boring! ”

I smiled helplessly and made a gesture of invitation to the door:

"Please go out for a while, if you have anything to say, I'll talk about it after I take a shower!"

The girl was babbling, but she didn't want to get up, so I took off my clothes and said:

"Okay, since you don't care, then I have nothing to be ashamed of!"

With that, I took off my T-shirt.

This trick worked, and the girl immediately covered her eyes and left screaming.

After the girl left, I closed the door and was about to go to the bathroom to take a shower, when my phone rang.

This mobile phone was bought by Qiu Yan, so far, except for Qiu Yan and Xiang Wei, no one knows my number, I thought to myself that it can't be Xiang Wei to call, it must be Qiu Yan.

Who knew that when I took the phone and listened to it, I was stunned, it was actually my mother on the other end of the phone!

"Hey, Zimu, you bastard, you don't know how to call home after going out for so long."

"Are you still used to being outside?"

"Have you eaten enough?"

"Is the work going well?"

"By the way, how does Qiu Yan treat you?"

"Listen to Damn, Qiu Yan is a good child, and he can get along everywhere!"

"Oh, Mom pickled some of your favorite pickles, why don't you send you some?"

"Yes, yes, yes, and your bacon, you don't know, after you went out, grandma brought a lot of bacon over, and she had to let me bring it to you."

......

I only said the word "hey" on this phone call, and then my mother split my head and covered my face with a nag, originally I thought that my mother called me, and I was a little moved, but after this, I didn't feel it at all, I just felt buzzing in my ears.

"Mom! Mother! Mother!!! Can you let me say something? I interrupted my mom and said, "Where did you get my number?" ”

"Hehe, it's not Qiu Yan yet! I called your company, and the people in the company told me Qiu Yan's number, and then Qiu Yan told me, you bastard, you don't know how to tell me if you buy a mobile phone! ”

"Am I not busy with work? I forgot about it when I was busy! ”

"Well, it's right to be busy with work, but you can't just be busy with work, what about Qiu Yan that my mother told you? You have to be careful, too! ”

"Alright, Mom, I got it! By the way, you're in such a hurry to find me, is there something wrong? ”

"What's the matter? Oh, by the way, you see I almost forgot! Your grandmother called and said that she also lives in the provincial capital, so you can visit her when you have time! ”

I was stunned after hearing this, grandma? Which grandmother?

So I asked my mother, and my mother said that this grandmother was my grandfather's aunt, that is, my great-grandfather's sister, the one who married the three siblings Li Yishan and Li Yishui.

After listening to this, I became even more curious, this grandmother has not had any contact with our family for decades, and she is at least eighty or ninety years old, how did such an old man know that I came to the provincial capital?

My mother said she didn't know, and she said she was also curious, this distant relative actually found our family's landline number, and named He Zimu to see her.

I asked for the address of this grandmother again, and my mother said that she didn't keep it, only left her the name of my company, and my grandmother said on the phone that she would come to my company to find me.

When I heard this, I immediately thought of the girl just now, maybe she was my distant cousin!

Thinking of this, I hurriedly said a few words and asked my mother to hang up the phone, and then went to the door to take a look, only to find that the girl had left.

I hurriedly called Qiu Yan again, saying that I wouldn't see each other today and wanted to go out for a walk.

Qiu Yan immediately agreed, and said that she had given me some money in the card, and let me relax in the past few days.

After hanging up Qiu Yan's phone, I quickly washed up, and then chased out
