Chapter 64: Door-to-door business
After visiting his parents, he left the Third Courtyard and returned to the barbecue restaurant in Wan Chai Lane, lying on the sofa and opening the interface of the Trainee Grim Reaper app on his personal terminal.
Captain Zhang rarely showed up during this time, and the tasks related to him were naturally stagnant, but there was no time limit for this task, and he was not in a hurry to weigh nine catties.
She helps the necromancers run errands every day, and sends them to rest after completing her wishes, and the spiritual energy points weighing nine catties are growing steadily and slowly, approaching 2000 points, and the corners of her mouth are slightly raised when she looks at the balance points.
"How can the balance of 1599 be considered close to 2000?" The dead guide is really incomprehensible.
"Don't you understand rounding?"
When he replied to the death guide, his eyes kept glancing at the dungeon sign, whether he wanted to go in and see what the situation was now in the northern suburbs garbage dump, and he didn't know if Grace was dead.
Weighing nine pounds, she spread out the palm of her left hand, and the number had already been refreshed and restored to 3, but she had no way of knowing whether the blessed person had really fulfilled it, which was really reassuring.
"If the blessing you sent out is fulfilled, the dead creatures will be automatically converted into the corresponding psionic points by you."
"In other words, my psionic point balance will increase?"
"Yes."
"Why didn't you say it earlier." Weighing nine catties, recalling the sudden pop-up of the psionic point increase prompt during this time, the historical information is cleaned up once a week, and no record can be found now.
"This is so unscientific, can it be reset?"
"This is the basic setting of your personal terminal, and you can change it yourself."
Weighing nine pounds, he immediately took action when he heard the words.
There is no big task these days, and I am thinking about whether to bless myself again, but I am worried that the difficulty of the random task caused by this blessing is too high, and the two stars can still fight, in case it really comes to three stars or more, it is not good to accidentally play yourself to ashes.
What's more important is that the big exam is approaching, and the matter of studying is still the top priority for Jiujin, and she doesn't want to make any extraneous branches.
Changed the setting of automatic cleaning of historical information, and opened the task list to carefully view the tasks that can be selected.
"Ding Dong~~"
"Dingdong~~Welcome to ......"
The doorbell of the barbecue restaurant downstairs rang non-stop, and many old customers ignored the notice of 'the owner is temporarily closed for business' these days, and rang the doorbell to beg for skewers, weighing nine pounds and decided to ignore it.
Today, the doorbell rang for a while, but it didn't take long for it to be replaced by a door: "Nine catties, nine catties, open the door quickly!" ”
Weighing nine pounds and running downstairs, she opened the door of the store, and it was the proprietress of the store next door, and behind her were two dusty strangers and Chen Yan.
Chongjiujin looked at Chen Yan, she was the mother of the girl who was rescued from Beizhai by Matthew and Chongjiujin, and she was also the client of the search mission at that time, but what happened to the surviving girl.
"Nine pounds, they're looking for Matthew......"
The proprietress didn't finish her words, and one of them eagerly stepped forward, "I'm looking for Detective Matthew, please help me, please." ”
"Nine catties, you greet first, I'm still busy in the store."
"Eh, thank you, hostess."
Weighing nine pounds, I invited the three of them into the store, I was quite surprised, I didn't expect the detective agency to really have business to come to the door, "Don't worry, come in first, say slowly." "It wasn't the survivor who I rescued that had an accident, and I was much more relaxed after weighing nine pounds.
"Matthew's phone has not been able to get through, so I can only take the liberty of bringing people over, hoping that you can help them."
Ever since Matthew and Jiujin sent the missing girl home, Chen Yan has always been grateful, believing that it was the White Nights Detective Agency that dragged her out of the abyss of despair.
Chen Yan said to the two dusty people, "Don't worry, the White Night Detective Agency can solve a case that the police can't handle, and there must be a chance to find someone, don't give up hope." ”
Weighing nine catties is not Chen Yan, it is impossible for her to pack tickets, but she doesn't want to categorically refuse the business delivered to the door.
"Who are you looking for?"
"My daughter, in order to find my daughter, our family has traveled to most of China in the past eight years."
The white-haired and wrinkled uncle in front of him was actually only in his forties, but he looked like he was in his sixties and seventies.
"My wife passed away two years ago, and her biggest regret in life is that she couldn't find her missing daughter, blame me, blame me." The man lowered his head as he spoke, and his hoarse voice was calm and suppressed, and it was difficult to hide his helpless self-blame. "It's me who is not good."
The nine-pound man looked behind him over the man with red eyes, quickly retracted his gaze, hesitated for a few seconds, and replied, "This commission can be undertaken by our company, but after all, so many years have passed, and the possibility of finding someone is not high, so we can only do our best." ”
"I know, it's been eight years, maybe she has had an accident, and it's probably no longer alive......" The man's voice choked up and became even more hoarse, "I understand, but I want to see people in life and corpses in death, no matter what, I want to know how she is doing now, I can't just be so unclear...... I was upset. ”
The man's hand holding the glass trembled slightly.
Chongjiujin nodded, "That's right, according to the rules of our company, you need to submit a deposit to determine the entrusted task." ”
"The entrusted deposit is 3000, Tong Suo is not deceived, and the deposit will not be refunded regardless of whether the task is completed or not."
Although the fee of the detective agency is very flexible, it all depends on the president's mood, but the deposit of 3,000 yuan is a dead rule, and if you don't give it, you won't work.
The man with a pale face hesitated slightly, and quickly made up his mind again, took out a stack of banknotes from the inner pocket of his coat, and counted them carefully one by one: "Can I meet your president?" As he spoke, he looked around.
Heavy Jiujin smiled and opened his eyes and said nonsense, "I'm sorry, the president is not on duty today, the detective agency is very busy, if it wasn't for Aunt Chen who brought you over, I wouldn't have gone downstairs to open the door." ”
The man's breathing became heavier, clenched the money in his hand, hesitated slightly, and then handed it forward and pressed it on the table, "This matter will be entrusted to the White Night Detective Agency, as long as... As long as I can find my daughter, it doesn't matter if I want to go bankrupt. ”
"I need some information to find the person, do you have a photo of the missing girl, and please fill out this basic information form." Weighing nine pounds, he handed out a form, "After filling out the form, please write everything you can remember about your daughter in the blank space at the back of the form, the more complete the details, the greater the chance of finding the missing person." ”
"Can you tell me how your daughter went missing?"
"Eight years ago, I still remember that it was a rainy night, she ran away from home with her family, it was my fault, I chased it out one step late, one step late, damn it...... She hasn't been heard from since. The man's voice was full of genuine remorse.
"It's my fault, I shouldn't be negligent, children are not sensible, I shouldn't be negligent...... It was my fault...... My mistake ......" the man repeated these words, his hands on his knees and clenched into fists, his muscles bulging from too hard.
Chen Yan listened to this story and quietly turned around and wiped her tears, remembering the time when her daughter disappeared, she couldn't stand it for just a month, and it was hard to imagine how to spend eight years, such an experience was too painful, "Since you have spoken, then I will leave first." ”
Weighing nine pounds, he got up and sent Chen Yan out of the store, "Aunt Chen, are they your friends?" ”
"No, we met by chance in the family healing group of the missing person, and they took the initiative to find me to ask how they found my child."
I see.
