Chapter 226: Failure
After breakfast, I got into Duran's car. [No pop-ups. 】
The relevant personnel have been contacted, Zhang Chengwu is responsible for preparing the spell casting materials, and sending someone to pick up Sun Mei and Sun Qian, while Du Lan's driver directly drives us to Mr. Wang's old suburban mansion.
The old house is a courtyard house, and when I walked in with Duran, an old man of many years old was doing tai chi, and he seemed to be in good spirits.
Du Lan didn't wait for the old man to speak, and smiled directly: "Grandpa Wang, your Tai Chi is really good, you are Mr. Wang's father, he made an appointment for us to meet here." ”
The uncle sighed and replied, "My son came with me, come in, he will be there in a while." ”
Duran didn't enter the house, but sat down on a bench in the courtyard.
I have nothing to do, so I simply watched Uncle Wang play Tai Chi, at his age, with such flexible skills, it is really powerful.
Me: "Uncle Wang, you must have been a soldier when you were young, your body is very tough, and you can play Tai Chi very well." ”
Uncle Wang laughed and said: "What kind of soldier to be, I was not from a good background when I was young, so I could only work as a nurse in a psychiatric hospital, and practicing a few moves of Tai Chi is also for self-defense." ”
The psychiatric hospital can't be so coincidental, I asked: "Uncle Wang, is your hospital the one that has been abandoned now, and it was converted into a drug rehabilitation center in the next year." ”
Uncle Wang nodded and said, "No, I just didn't expect that a joke I said back then would come true now." ”
I wondered, "Uncle Wang, what kind of joke?" ”
Uncle Wang smiled proudly and said, "I suffered a lot in the hospital when I was young, so I have always told my son that if I have money in the future, I will definitely buy this place, but I didn't expect my son to really help me achieve it." ”
When Uncle Wang said these words, his eyes were full of smugness, and it seemed that he was very proud of Mr. Wang.
However, since Uncle Wang is a nurse in the hospital, he may know some things, so I simply asked: "Uncle Wang, you have worked in the hospital for so many years, have you ever encountered any strange things, such as hitting ghosts or something?" ”
Don't look at Uncle Wang's age, his thinking is still very agile, he shook his head directly and said: "In our era, we didn't believe in any bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods, but you want strange things, there are really people, almost every year there are people missing, most of the missing people are mentally ill, I remember the most serious is the year, the missing person, and then the hospital was changed to a drug rehabilitation center, and I also retired." ”
I asked, "Uncle Wang, since so many people are missing, did the police track down the whereabouts of the missing people at that time?" ”
Uncle Wang shook his head and said, "I don't know the specifics, most of the patients in the hospital are patients who have no relatives and no reason, and it's not unusual for them to get lost." ”
Just when I was chatting with Uncle Wang, Zhang Chengwu pushed Mr. Wang over, Uncle Wang seemed to know the situation, and hurriedly ran over and asked, "Qiangzi, how are you, are you better?" ”
Mr. Wang was tightly wrapped, wearing sunglasses, leaning on a wheelchair, and his mental state was very poor.
Mr. Wang coughed twice: "I'm fine, Dad, I'll go to my room with the guest to talk a few words, don't come and disturb us if you have nothing to do." ”
Uncle Wang was very concerned about Mr. Wang, but he didn't know what to do, so he could only nod and say, "Okay, I won't bother you to talk about things, stay and eat at noon, I'll let Ah Zhong go buy a few vegetables and come back." ”
Mr. Wang nodded reluctantly and motioned for Duran and me to go with him.
Before we reached the east room, Sun Mei pushed Sun Qian and arrived, and the parties gathered together, and I can finally start casting spells.
The room on the east side was where Mr. Wang lived, and even if Mr. Wang did not come back for many years, it was still clean.
I looked at Mr. Wang, then at Sun Mei, and said, "Since everyone is here, then I will try to lift the reversal technique of the year, and see if I can restore you to your original state, Mr. Wang, there should be two nails in the room, do you remember where Uncle Wang nailed it back then." ”
Mr. Wang nodded, and reported two directions at once, I quickly found the lock nail, and found the portrait of the blue-faced ghost painted by Uncle Wang on the wall.
The reversal ceremony is not complicated, with my current skills, it is naturally easy, I painted the portrait of the god while part: "Mr. Wang, after the ceremony is completed, I hope you will pay off the money you owe to Sun in one lump sum, how can there be a reason to owe people ten thousand, and pay in installments." ”
When Mr. Wang heard my words, he coughed violently twice, and said, "I really don't know about this matter, I directly handed it over to the finance back then." ”
Zhang Chengwu was obviously embarrassed and added: "I have also checked this matter, it is indeed our mistake, we must make up all the money owed to Sun in the past two days, Editor Luo, is it okay to start." ”
In the beginning, I was almost finished.
After drawing the upside-down picture of the blue-faced ghost, Zhang Chengwu took the antidote I asked him to prepare, as long as Sun Qian drank it, everything would return to its original place.
But there is one thing that surprises me, Sun Qian actually refused to cooperate, and refused to open his mouth to drink.
I tried a lot of hard work to fail, so I had to turn my eyes to Sun Mei for help, and in the end, she pinched Sun Qian's arm heavily, and this guy honestly opened his mouth.
The teeth on my lips were full of cold hairs standing on end, and I resisted the feeling of nausea, and poured them all down.
After completing this feat, I clapped my hands heavily and said, "That's it, just wait a moment." ”
Everyone held their breath, expecting a miracle to happen, but half a moment passed, and there was no reaction at all.
Mr. Wang's body trembled slightly, and asked, "Editor Luo, how is it, has it succeeded, why don't I feel it at all." ”
Of course he didn't feel it, because there was no success at all, if he succeeded, the luck on Mr. Wang's body and Sun Qian's luck should be in tune, but such a thing did not happen.
It's impossible, how could it fail, the lock nail was removed, the idol painting was broken, and the potion was drunk.
I asked suspiciously, "Mr. Zhang, whether you have mixed the potion according to the formula I provided, it can't be wrong." ”
Zhang Chengwu heard me questioning him, and said in a deep voice: "Editor Luo, the formula was provided to me by you, I have worked with Lao Wang for so many years, if I want to harm him, it is impossible to wait until today." ”
Mr. Wang also nodded and said, "Lao Zhang can't hurt me, could something go wrong." ”
Although Mr. Wang was very tactful, I also understood the meaning of his words, and he was clearly questioning my ability.
At this moment, Zhang Chengwu's mobile phone rang, and after he took the phone, he gave a few words, and then put his head to Mr. Wang's ear and whispered a few words.
Mr. Wang suddenly shouted angrily: "That unfilial thing, Lao Zhang, let's go back quickly." ”
Before leaving, Zhang Chengwu asked me to hurry up and think of a way, and he would fully cooperate if I needed anything.
The two of them left quickly, and Du Lan slowly stood up and said: "Mr. Wang left in such a hurry, it must be related to Mr. Wang's meeting with Mr. Uesugi, Changtian, your reversal technique really failed?" ”
I glanced at Sun Mei and nodded: "Yes, it really failed, it shouldn't have been a reaction at all, I don't know what went wrong there, I have to go back to Grandpa Chen to ask." ”
After this, I walked up to Sun Mei again and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I called you all the way over, I really didn't expect it to fail." ”
Sun Mei showed a disappointed look on her face and sighed: "This may be fate, then I'll take my dad back first, if there's any news, you're informing me." ”
Everyone left in an instant, and when they were leaving, Uncle Wang came to see me off with a puzzled look, and asked everyone why they all left.
Duran had other things to do, she was keeping in touch later, and asked the driver to drop me off downstairs at the magazine.
Along the way, I couldn't figure out why I failed, all the steps were correct, could it really be because the Nine Turns Secret Technique went wrong, so I couldn't even cast the Reversal Technique.
I walked into the office with a depressed mood, Ai was busy in front of my computer, and as soon as she saw me, she excitedly shouted: "Long day, I was hired, assistant editor, monthly salary during the internship period." ”
The salary is really high for newcomers with no academic qualifications, and I only had a month when I interned a while ago.
Zhou Xueqin put down the pen in her hand and looked up at me: "Changtian, you came back just in time, do you want to celebrate, go eat hot pot at noon." ”
Eating hot pot is a good proposal, just enough for me to think about the current situation, and at this moment, my mobile phone rang, and it was Captain Liu calling.
"Changtian, I have found the information of Father Andrei, and I will have someone send it to you when I go back."
is worthy of Captain Liu, he found it so quickly.
I thought about it for a while and said, "Captain Liu, let's have a meal together at noon, I have one more thing I want you to check, in the era, is there a lot of cases of missing mental patients in Haicheng Mental Hospital." ”
