Chapter 22: Vision
"How can this be a stalk, I just want to be friends with you."
The handsome young man smiled very happily, which made Han Shi and Yang Ke both a little suspicious of life.
Especially Han Shi, she realized for the first time that her competitive pressure was not just from the same sex.
Yang Ke thought more, because the handsome young man had been staring at the little skeleton next to him, and his eyes were quite hot.
He's here for this little skeleton?
The handsome young man climbed onto the shore from the pool, Han Shi's eyes followed his eight-pack abs, and his eyes were faintly sad.
The two stood opposite each other, Yang Ke straightened his waist, and found that they seemed to be about the same height.
"I used to catch the subway at the subway station, so I couldn't introduce myself to you. To get acquainted again, my name is Lu An and I am a private detective. ”
Lu An took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Yang Ke to express his friendship, but the latter did not shake hands with him, but said suspiciously: "Private detective? What does a private investigator do with me? ”
A private detective who can see the little skeleton, Yang Ke instinctively feels that the other party is not good.
Lu An said calmly: "Because I was entrusted by someone to investigate you." ”
Yang Ke was suddenly shocked, I'll go, can you be more straightforward.
The other party said so directly that Yang Ke didn't know how to answer.
And Lu An doesn't seem to know how to avoid speaking, there are obviously other people here, he is mentioning the messenger and the investigation, is he afraid that others will not know that he is different from normal people?
Yang Ke saw that Han Shi's expression had begun to become a little strange, so he hurriedly said, "Han Shi, I think I'm suffering from a nervous disorder, or let's call the police." ”
Call the police, do the two men show affection in front of her?
In Han Shi's view, what Lu An said about private detectives and investigations should be local love words.
How could a real detective reveal his true identity in front of the person being investigated.
She hasn't seen too many of these kinds of conversations, but the feeling that comes out of the mouth of a handsome guy is really different.
"You two talk, I'll go find Meng Yuanhang."
Han Shi felt that if she continued to look at it, she would have to eat Yang Ke's vinegar, so she decisively chose to leave.
Lu An watched Han Shi swim away, then raised his eyebrows at Yang Ke and said, "Shall we change places?" ”
Yang Ke sneered: "Do you think I will be stupid enough to be at your mercy?" ”
"How about I treat you to dinner, sirloin steak? I know there's a good western restaurant nearby. Also, it seems that you haven't made a contract with this courier yet, and if you want to know some information, I can tell you a little bit about it, I know a little bit about the courier. ”
……
……
In a Western restaurant, Yang Ke chose a window seat and sat opposite Lu An.
As long as you have bought a single-day ticket in the swimming pool, you can use a temporary pass to enter and exit freely, so Yang Ke and Lu An only need to get dressed and come out to eat.
Lu An's direct gaze made Yang Ke feel a little awkward, and after the steak of the two came up, as soon as the waiter walked away, he couldn't help but say, "So, what are the conditions?" What do you want from me? ”
After Yang Ke finished speaking, he found that Lu An had already begun to eat the steak in a big gulp.
He frowned slightly, Lu An's eating appearance was very bad, and it didn't match his handsome appearance.
In other words, he pays attention to what others eat and what they do, and if they come, they will be safe, Yang Ke has recently begun to try a cheeky lifestyle, anyway, others treat themselves, and they don't eat for nothing.
Thinking of this, Yang Ke picked up the knife and fork, cut a small piece of the steak on the plate, and was about to fork it up and put it into his mouth, but when he noticed the unripe blood remaining in the steak, he suddenly lost all his appetite.
Because of the problem of healing blood, Yang Ke is now very sensitive to blood, and he can't help but fantasize about what he will look like after he turns into a beast, worrying that his fate will be as miserable as Zhang Youcheng and them.
Lu An finished eating the steak on the plate, and it took less than two minutes, and he saw that Yang Ke hadn't started eating yet, so he asked, "Why don't you eat it?" Not to your liking? ”
"I don't have an appetite."
"yes, it's a shame to waste it, I'll eat it for you."
After speaking, Lu An took Yang Ke's plate of steak and ate it again.
Two minutes later, Lu An put down the empty plate, wiped his mouth, and burped: "Whew, it's really good, I often come to this Western restaurant to eat steak, and today I borrow your light to eat two portions at a time, it's really cool." ”
Yang Ke didn't answer him, but said, "Now you can always answer my question." ”
Lu An took a sip of water and rinsed his mouth, then swallowed and said, "Why are you always in such a hurry?" There are so many beautiful things in life, you should enjoy them with your heart. ”
"I'm not as idle as you."
Yang Ke found that he couldn't figure out the path of the person in front of him at all.
Because I met once, I followed him directly.
Claiming to be a private detective, although it is true that he can explain the problem of tracking, Yang Ke does not believe it.
Diving skills are superb, good figure, good looks, but the behavior is unique.
Said the messenger and stalking in front of Han Shi, and ate steak with his hands in a Western restaurant, not caring about other people's eyes, seemingly open but deep-minded.
This man is eccentric from head to toe.
"Okay, okay, I'll just say it," Lu An pointed to the little skeleton sitting next to Yang Ke and said, "Messengers are a very special kind of existence, they are somewhere between real and unreal, and the reason why ordinary people can't see them is because they haven't turned on their spiritual vision. ”
"Wait, Psion?" Lu An once again mentioned a term that Yang Ke didn't understand at all.
"You don't even know the vision? You're lucky to say that. ”
Lu An's eyes changed a little when he looked at Yang Ke, and he continued: "To put it bluntly, spiritual vision is the ability to let you see unknown existences, as for the opportunity to open spiritual vision, the opportunity to open spiritual vision varies from person to person, many organizations have their fixed methods of turning on spiritual vision, but the reason why many ordinary people suddenly turn on spiritual vision is mostly because they have been exposed to some special items, or they have been stimulated by some kind of sudden opening. ”
"We can feel it the moment you turn on your vision, like your head hurts or your eyes suddenly blur, and then you suddenly hear something you couldn't hear before."
While listening to Lu An's explanation, Yang Ke recalled his experience in the past two days.
According to him, there may be two opportunities for Yang Ke to turn on his spiritual vision, one is the strange murmur that appeared in his mind when the blood bottle pendant shook for the first time, and the other is the sudden pain in his head when he read Cagle's diary.
Yang Ke was more inclined to the second time, because before that, he had never seen the existence of the little skeleton.
While Yang Ke was thinking, Lu An secretly touched the little skeleton's head.
The little skeleton was visibly afraid of Lu An, and it didn't even dare to continue shaking its head when it was touched.
Yang Ke noticed this and silently raised his vigilance against Lu An.
Lu An touched it for a while, and then continued with satisfaction: "Now back to the messenger, I actually know very little about the role of the messenger, I only know that it can help you deliver information, and some messages that are inconvenient to transmit by phone can be delivered by messenger, but the premise is that you have to sign a summoning contract with the messenger." ”
"Ordinary Couriers will only make contracts with humans if they are willing, but there is another situation where if you are strong enough to make the Courier submit, you can also make it work for you. The little skeleton that follows you seems to be very persistent, and it probably won't go away until you agree to make a pact with it. ”
After Lu An finished speaking, he wanted to touch the little skeleton again, but this time it resolutely hid behind Yang Ke and prevented the other party from succeeding.
He withdrew his hand stupidly, looked at the little skeleton and said with envy: "I have always wanted a messenger of my own, but unfortunately no messenger is willing to follow me, even if it is only for a short time. ”
"I can give it to you if you want."
Yang Ke's words made the little skeleton tremble, and it seemed to be very shocked.
The little skeleton jumped onto Yang Ke's arms and shook his head desperately from side to side, as if to tell him that you can't do this.
"Hahaha, this messenger obviously only wants you, and it can't make a pact with me. Don't talk about that, Yang Ke, do you have any other questions to ask? ”
"Yes."
"Just say."
"You said you were hired to investigate me, and I want to know who hired you."
"I'm sorry, as a private investigator, I have my own principles, and I can't answer this question."
Lu An refused very decisively, but he continued: "Except for this question, I can answer you for the rest." ”
Yang Ke shook his head and said, "No, I just need the answer to this question." ”
"That's a bit of a problem," Lu An scratched his head, as if he didn't expect such a result to appear, "I thought you would ask me why I answered your question so honestly, you must know that although the information about the messenger is not a top secret, it will take some trouble for ordinary people to understand." ”
Yang Ke looked at Lu An silently and did not speak.
The latter thought for about two or three seconds, then sighed and said, "Okay, since you want to know so much, then I'll tell the truth, the person who hired me to investigate you is named Sun Hongli, and he is Zhang Youcheng's former friend." ”
Yang Ke didn't expect Lu An to say the name of the person who hired him so easily.
What about the principles of a good detective?
Although Yang Ke did know that Zhang Youcheng had a friend named Sun Hongli, would the other party also know this, so he used it to deceive him?
seemed to know that Yang Ke would not believe it easily, so Lu An called up a photo of the contract from his mobile phone, and the signature of Party A on it was Sun Hongli.
After Yang Ke saw the name pointed by Lu An, he was about to take a closer look at the specific content of this contract, but the other party immediately took back his mobile phone, then shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you don't believe it, then I can't help it." ”
"Whether it's true or not, I'll investigate it myself."
Lu An's style of acting, Yang Ke really couldn't see through it.
But at least it gave him a direction.
Sun Hongli and Zhang Youcheng once invited Yang Ke to have dinner with this person, but that experience was not very pleasant.
If it were him, it might have been possible to use the disgusting trick of having a private investigator investigate him.
"In that case, you already know everything you want to know, and now it's time to talk about me."
"Say it."
Yang Ke is not a fool, since the other party can tell him the most important client, he must want to get more important things from him.
It's just that Yang Ke can't think of what this thing will be.
His knowledge of mysterious and unknown things is very limited, and his own profession is probably not interested in the other party.
Lu An pressed his hand and said, "Take it easy, don't be so vigilant, what I want you to do is actually very simple, that is, let you meet a friend of mine." ”
Yang Ke frowned and said, "Your friend? Why is he looking for me? ”
"Just tell him about this in person, he's already waiting outside the restaurant, if you agree, I'll call him in now."
Yang Ke looked around, there were waiters here, there were surveillance, and it was on the side of the densely populated street, unless the other party was an outlaw, he should not make any outrageous moves.
And if the other party is an orc, it is better to meet here than to meet unexpectedly.
The reason why Yang Ke chose to sit next to the window was because in case of danger, he could directly break the window and escape.
Even if you may have to use it to heal yourself once, it is still better than being killed directly.
And Yang Ke also wanted to see what kind of friend could be more important than Lu An's client.
"Let him in."
"Great, I'll call him now," Lu An picked up his mobile phone and dialed a number, and soon the other party picked it up, and then he smiled, "Grandma Zhang, he agreed, you guys come in." ”
Grandma Zhang, an old man wants to see him?
After a while, a gray-haired, kind-faced old woman walked in.
Yang Ke looked at the other party's appearance carefully and confirmed that he didn't know her at all.
But just as he was about to ask the other party why he saw him, a child suddenly appeared from behind the old grandmother.
The kid happily waved his hand at Yang Ke and said, "Uncle, we're meeting again." ”
