Chapter 33: Goodbye Qi Lushan

When I helped the fainted clerk out of the store, a cordon had been put up in front of the store, and two uniformed policemen were explaining something to the crowd outside the cordon.

"Everyone, calm down, we have a police professional to solve it, please don't be impatient."

"It's out, it's out!"

A sharp-eyed passer-by saw me walking out of the store with the clerk in his arms, pointing at me and yelling.

The cry was like a pebble thrown into the water, stirring up a thousand waves, and the crowd around the cordon began to stir. I realized that there were photographers with cameras and TV reporters in the crowd.

"Hello, are you in the police system?"

"It's said that the inside of this shop is haunted, is it true?"

"Are you a Taoist priest?"

I was caught off guard by a series of questions from reporters, I usually catch ghosts and fight demons at most, but when I saw this kind of formation, I was immediately stunned and a little at a loss.

A large, thick hand took me by the arm, pulled me behind me, and replied in a rough voice:

"If you have any questions, I'm Qi Lushan, director of the Beishan District Public Security Bureau."

"Hello Director Qi, I want to ask if this store is really haunted as the clerk said?"

A reporter was also unequivocal and asked in a loud voice.

"Thank you for your question, we are still investigating the specific situation, but it is certain that it is definitely not the so-called haunting, and everyone should not believe the rumors of hauntings on the Internet, we must believe in science."

Chief Qi replied solemnly.

"Then how can Director Qi explain the sudden appearance of so many frightened people in this storefront?"

The reporter did not give up and continued to ask.

"Our police are still investigating this situation, please don't be impatient."

Qi Lushan did not back down and replied without doubt. Waving his hand, he motioned for the police behind him to step forward to stop the reporter's questioning, turned around, ignored the reporter's shouting, and walked over to me, who was still in a daze.

"Xiao Mu, are you okay?"

He patted me on the shoulder and asked with concern.

I came back to my senses, shook my head, and said with a smile:

"I'm fine, thank you Director Qi. But how did you know something was wrong? ”

Qi Lushan also shook his head helplessly.

"Originally, it was just an ordinary alarm, but then I received a call from Lao Lin, saying that you might have hit a ghost here, let me help first. You know, as a bureau chief, if I appear in public, I will definitely be seen by the eyes planted here by those newspapers, and I have a keen sense of smell and can roughly guess what is going on. ”

Qi Lushan explained with a wry smile, and then the conversation changed,

"How? Is it a question of ghosts? ”

"Yes, but not the kind of demon I saw at the beginning."

I didn't hide it, and told the story one by one.

After listening to this, Qi Lushan pondered for a while before slowly speaking:

"I still have the impression of that case, the little girl went to play in the roof garden, and climbed the guardrail herself at the stall where her mother went to the toilet and fell. Her mother is still mentally disturbed. ”

"Alas, what a fate."

I sighed.

"But it's been nearly a year since this happened, why hasn't the ghost of that little girl appeared at this time in this year?"

After all, Qi Lushan was a criminal policeman, and he quickly caught the details that he felt were not normal.

His question made me a little confused. Yes, according to reason, the little girl's soul has already drifted out after her physical death, why hasn't it appeared in this year, but now.

Generally, the souls of the deceased cannot be directly exposed to the sun, and they need to absorb the energy and breath of yin, ghost, and aura before they can appear as ghosts. Could it be that there is yin qi in this vicinity?

Naturally, he couldn't tell Director Qi in front of him that even if he now believed that there were ghosts in the world, after all, he was still a materialist, and he was still a little disgusted with this statement in his heart. Besides, as a criminal policeman, being powerless in a case is the most devastating thing for them, but this ghostly matter is not something they can solve.

"There may have been similar sightings, but they didn't make such a big noise. After all, the little girl was not a demon, but she looked a little scary. ”

I said casually.

Qi Lushan was no longer entangled in this issue, nodded, and said:

"Maybe, Xiao Mu, you go get busy first, I'll be responsible here."

"Okay, Director Qi, my classmates are still waiting for me, I'll go over first, thank you today."

Escorted by two policemen, I walked out of a hidden corner of the cordon, walked around the back of the crowd, and happened to run into two girls who were probing their brains on the periphery. I stepped forward and patted them on the back and teased:

"What are you looking at?"

Xun Qingzi turned around and looked at me in some surprise. Jian Huiqian asked directly:

"Shi'an, I heard it's haunted inside?"

When I first walked into the store, I was ready to be seen by the two of them, and I had already thought of an excuse, so I was not ambiguous, and replied directly:

"Lao Yang and I were waiting for you outside, and I heard someone in this store shouting that it was haunted. Isn't my family doing feng shui, and I know a little bit about ghosts, so I thought I'd go in and help. ”

When the two girls heard what I said, they both began to get nervous, and Xun Qingzi asked timidly in a low voice:

"That'...... Is that really haunted? ”

I didn't expect these two girls to be so scared, and I was stunned for a moment. Yang Xiran walked over from the side at the right time, and replied for me with a smile:

"How can it be, are there ghosts in this world? It's a customer who has a seizure while changing clothes, and is thought to be a ghost by others. Lao Mu and I went in to take a look, nothing happened, the person had been sent to the hospital. ”

I gave Yang Xiran a grateful look, and he squeezed his eyebrows at me without leaving a trace.

The two girls believed Yang Xiran's words and relaxed, Jian Huiqian smiled and poked my and Yang Xiran's arms, and teased:

"I didn't expect you two to be so helpful."

Yang Xiran laughed out loud and replied proudly:

"Well, I was the winner of our high school volunteering contest."

In exchange for the two girls' big eyes.

"Then we'll have to help you pick out clothes, and the champion can't just wear a dress and go to the sorority."

Jian Huiqian said with a big grin, pulling Yang Xiran and walking towards the clothing store next to her, leaving me and Xun Qingzi behind.

Xun Qingzi was not as big as Jian Huiqian, hesitated for a while, but still stared at me with bright peach blossom eyes, and asked:

"Shi'an, you tell the truth, is it really a ghost. Including in the artificial river at the school just now, what I saw was also a ghost. ”

I was a little distracted by some of her serious questions, and I struggled with whether to tell her the truth, but I decided to continue to hide it when I thought of her painful look at the hotel.

"No, I can tell you responsibly, there are no ghosts, if it is really a ghost, I will tell you."

I also got serious and replied with a straight face.

"Really?"

She was unwilling and asked.

"I swear to God."

I put my fingers together, pointed to the sky, and said earnestly word by word.

She stared at me, but she chuckled and reached out to grab my wrist.

"Then I believe in you, go, I'll help you pick out your clothes."

I breathed a sigh of relief, and I was lucky to get by. Seeing the wrists held by these soft little hands, my face was hot, and the slender back of the girl in front of me silently provoked the longing for love in my mother's single heart.

"She seems to be a good girlfriend too."

followed Xun Qingzi into the magnificent clothing store with home decoration, and the shopping guide with a professional smile greeted him.

"What kind of clothes do you want to buy?"

I didn't know anything about fashion, I just knew what to wear on those occasions. Xun Qingzi is different, like an old driver, took out a card from his bag, whispered something to the shopping guide, and the shopping guide understood.

"Please come here and take a break, and I'll help you get your clothes."

After listening to what Xun Qingzi said, the shopping guide nodded, guided us to sit in the rest area of the store, bowed slightly, turned around and walked to the hangers full of clothes, and carefully selected something.

"Qingzi, is this place expensive, I am panicked when I see this decoration."

I leaned over to Xun Qingzi's face with some trepidation and asked.

Although I used to charge some fees for helping others catch ghosts and fight demons, it can be regarded as a small savings, but if I really buy the kind of clothes that are better to wear at home, I don't have that spare money.

She smiled sweetly, and she still had the arrogant and domineering look she had towards me.

"No, this store is a store that my mother and I often visit, although it is a little more expensive than the usual store, but it is not too expensive, and I have a membership card here."

She held up the silver card in her hand and shook it in front of me.

Even though she said that, I still couldn't let go of my heart. After all, girls are very vague about the line between expensive and inexpensive, three yuan and a pound of watermelon may be too expensive, but the limited edition lipstick of five hundred and twenty-one is to pay for it without saying a word.

Just as we were worried, the shopping guide came to us with a white lace dress.

"Miss, this is the dress I picked for you according to your requirements, please take a look."

I have to say that the vision of this shopping guide is different, and in such a short period of time, I can choose a skirt that even a straight man like me thinks looks good. Xun Qingzi couldn't put it down, took the skirt even more, stuffed the bag and mobile phone into me without saying a word, and rushed into the fitting room.

"Sir, wait a minute, I'll go and help you choose your clothes now."

I didn't understand what the process was, but I didn't want to look uneducated, so I nodded a little confused.

The shopping guide left, and I was bored, so I took out my phone and played.

"Shi'an, am I good-looking?"

It didn't take long for a slightly excited girl's voice to sound.

I looked up, but I was amazed by the scene in front of me.
