Volume 3: The Death of the Ghost Village Chapter 47: Late Night Talk

Listening to the mediocre old man in front of him introduce himself, Chen Guangshui and his party, who knew that they had something to ask for help, did not dare to slack off, Chen Guangshui also hurriedly introduced the people to the village chief, and then recounted the intentions of several people to Village Chief Wang, Li Ruoxuan locked his eyes on Village Chief Wang's face and looked at the surrounding environment from time to time, during which she did not speak, not knowing what she was thinking.

"People from the city come to visit? It's not easy, we haven't had a face in this red leaf village for a long time, and I never thought that I would really come to the city today, welcome, welcome. ”

After learning that Chen Guangshui and his party were coming, he never thought that the reaction of Village Chief Wang was completely different from the middle-aged man before, not only did he not show a trace of doubt or refusal, but he welcomed it with a smile, especially when he heard that these people wanted the village chief to help him find a place to live, Village Chief Wang's answer behind was quite surprising to everyone, including Li Ruoxuan......

"Haha, the place to live is simple, the old Han's house is quite spacious and there are only me and my granddaughter Xiaojuan living in the house, so let's do it, you gentlemen from the city might as well live in my house these days."

It turns out that Wang Cun's family currently only lives with him and his granddaughter Xiaojuan, and Xiaojuan's parents are working in other places.

"Ahh True...... Are you sure? Village Chief Wang, thank you so much! Don't worry, we will pay for the food during the period. ”

As the saying goes, the icing on the cake is far less grateful, as soon as the village chief Wang said this, several newspaper reporters sitting opposite suddenly showed joy on their faces, and the old and sophisticated Chen Guangshui thanked him again and again, he had no intention of shirking, because they were really in urgent need of a place to live.

Regarding Chen Guangshui's accommodation fee suggestion, Village Chief Wang just smiled and waved his hand to express his disapproval, and then patted his head as if he suddenly remembered something, and asked a few people: "Look at me, I forgot about it when I got older, hehe, how many people haven't eaten yet, right?" ”

Chen Guangshui and the others smiled awkwardly, and the village chief Wang, who understood it, nodded and turned his head to his granddaughter standing behind him and ordered: "Xiaojuan, go cook first, and then go and clean up the rooms in the west and leave them for a few guests to stay." ”

…………………………

Time, 19:27 p.m.......

The accommodation arranged by the village chief Wang for everyone is not bad, it is located in the row of rooms in the west of the courtyard, to paraphrase the ancient saying is the west wing, the west wing has a total of 4 rooms side by side, a line of 5 people in addition to Li Ruoxuan and Zhou Xiaolan, who are women, live in a room, Chen Guangshui, Song Zhi and Liu Lang three men can actually share a room, although this is a backward countryside with neither electricity nor any household appliances, but it is still very good in this village with this treatment.

At this moment, in a flickering candle bedroom in the west wing, several people who had had had dinner, although they were tourists, were actually reporters, were gathering in Chen Guangshui's house, not knowing what they were discussing...... Of course, Li Ruoxuan, who is nominally a colleague with several people, is also here because of his scruples, but while sitting at the wooden table with everyone, her eyes are looking out of the window from time to time......

Sensing that there were no outsiders around and seeing a group of subordinates arriving, Chen Guangshui, as the editor-in-chief, finally explained that he had denied that everyone was a reporter during the day, first glanced at a few people around, and then, the bald man who had been a reporter for decades and had a keen sense of smell took the lead in explaining to everyone with the corners of his mouth raised: "During the day, everyone must have sensed that something was wrong from the mouth of the middle-aged man, right?" ”

Sure enough, after Chen Guangshui mentioned this, several men and women who were also reporters around them instantly understood the intention of the bald man, this time Zhou Xiaolan reacted the fastest, and before Song Zhi, who had made a sudden realization, could speak, the female reporter had already stared at Chen Guangshui and asked in a tentative tone: "Mr. Chen, what do you mean...... Do you want to dig up the news? ”

"Not bad!"

Seeing Zhou Xiaolan's understanding, Chen Guangshui first smiled proudly, and then lowered his voice and said to everyone: "Everyone knows that we must have a sensitive sense of smell in this business, this sense of smell refers to being good at discovering and digging news, if you can't even do this, then you are not a qualified reporter, you have all seen it during the day, those villagers' strange reactions when they saw us take out their cameras and the abnormal behavior of the middle-aged man later, hehe, with my sense of smell trained by decades of experience as a reporter...... I think...... There must be a big piece of news hidden in this village, and it's something you don't want outsiders to know! ”

"Ahh Could it be that Mr. Chen was referring to the middle-aged man's mouth? This time, Liu Lang wanted to speak, but unexpectedly, Song Zhi, who had been preparing for a long time, spoke first.

Chen Guangshui nodded with satisfaction, and only after subconsciously raising his head and scanning the window and making sure that there was no one outside the courtyard did he continue: "Well, think about it, how can it be a trivial matter that hundreds of villagers in an entire village are unwilling to disclose? As long as we can investigate this matter and report it, if the intensity is better...... It is difficult for our newspaper to be famous, and when the newspaper has a good future, we people will naturally have a bright future! ”

Speaking of which, all of Chen Guangshui's intentions can be said to be clear and clear, the reason why he refused to recognize the identity of the reporter to the village chief and all the villagers is here, and now after he says this, not only Chen Guangshui is alone, but the surrounding Liu Lang, Song Zhi and Zhou Xiaolan are also collectively moved!

That's right, as the so-called people go to high places and water flows to low places, although they came to this village with the intention of traveling, but if they find out a big news that is interesting during the tour, this is very helpful for their career prospects, thinking of this, there is no need for Chen Guangshui to say, several people who are reporters immediately made their own plans, and everyone knows what to do in the next few days.

"Very good, then from tomorrow, we will start investigating and digging in the village on 'that incident', anyway, it's not the first day for everyone to do this, as for how to investigate, you all know it, it's best not to reveal your identity, lest we be kicked out of the village by the villagers who deliberately concealed it."

At present, Chen Guangshui, who is triumphant, is telling his subordinates to pay attention, but unfortunately Li Ruoxuan is the only one in the whole process, during which she has been scanning the window from time to time, and she doesn't know what she is thinking in her mind, but just when Li Ruoxuan looked out of the window again...... With the help of the not-so-bright moonlight in the sky, a figure quietly walked out of the courtyard!

"Mr. Liu, I'll go to the toilet."

Seeing this, the beautiful royal sister who was attracted by the flashing figure would not care what meeting was going on, and the moment the figure walked out of the courtyard, Li Ruoxuan first casually threw an excuse at Chen Guangshui, and then hurriedly walked out of the room under the somewhat surprised gaze of everyone, fortunately, Chen Guangshui, who had already made a plan, didn't care, just reminded Li Ruoxuan's back casually: "Ruoxuan be careful, the toilet in this countryside is not ordinary smelly, remember to turn on the mobile phone lighting." ”

…………………………

Let's not talk about whether Chen Guangshui and the others will discuss anything later, Li Ruoxuan, who has already paid all her attention to the black shadow, is now hidden in the darkness of the courtyard, because this is a rural area with no electric lights, after entering the courtyard, she quietly walked to the gate of the compound with the help of night cover, and stretched out her head to look out of the door...... I saw that more than ten meters away not far away, there were two figures faintly talking to each other face to face, but unfortunately, due to the distance and the fact that both of them deliberately lowered their voices, Li Ruoxuan couldn't hear the conversation.

In desperation, Li Ruoxuan, who didn't want to let go of this opportunity at all, slowly walked out of the gate, and it wasn't until she shortened the distance to only eight or nine meters that she pricked up her ears and listened while hiding behind a plane tree in the village street, this time she could hear the sound of the conversation, but who would have thought that after hearing the content of the conversation between the two, Li Ruoxuan's heart was beating faster and faster!

Because...... The voices of these two people are very familiar to her! One of the voices was the same as she had guessed, and it was indeed Village Chief Wang, but the voice of the other person was a little surprised...... The voice was actually the voice of the middle-aged man they had encountered near the village chief's house during the day!

The night in the countryside can be described as silent and dark, and then ...... A conversation between the two reached her ears:

"Village Chief Wang, what do you think? Those few people in the city don't look like they're here to travel, don't you know our village? No outsiders have been here in the backwoods for many years, do you think it's reasonable to have a few tourists here? I guess these people must be reporters, reporters who came to our village to conduct a private investigation after receiving the news from nowhere! ”

"Yonggui, you don't talk nonsense, others don't know you and I don't know? That incident has passed, and no one in the village will say it, take a step back, even if that incident is known to outsiders, it is not a big deal, Acui committed suicide after all, even if the Public Security Bureau comes to investigate in the future, it will not be what the people in the village will do, but you Zhang Yonggui, what have you done before, don't you count in your heart? ”

"I ...... What did I do? I didn't do anything, huh? ”

"Humph! If it weren't for the fact that I had a good relationship with your dead father in previous years, I would have mobilized the people in the village to send you to the town police station. ”
