Chapter Fifty-Nine: Falling Short
Seeing Zu Zhong and Ethereal coming out of room 404, the manager and Fu Zeren immediately greeted them. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"That's it?" The manager asked, confused.
"Or else?"
The manager was speechless, after all, she didn't know how to exorcise ghosts, but those magic sticks before were all in a big battle, opening the altar or something, for Zu Zhong to stay in for ten minutes like this, he said that it was done, which made the manager question his ability more and more.
"You liar, how can it be so easy?" Then Fu Zeren spoke.
"It's not a secret, I've invited several masters before, and I've been unconvinced for a long time when I opened the altar, but now you say it's done, I'm a little ......"
Hearing the manager say this, Zu Zhong also instantly understood what she meant, is this doubting his own ability?
"Don't believe me?" Zu Zhong asked tentatively.
I saw that the manager wanted to speak and stopped, and finally could only nod awkwardly, expressing disbelief.
"So you don't want to give money?"
"No, no, no, as long as you really subdue the evil in it, I'll hand over the money to you now, but now, how can you prove it?" The manager hurriedly waved his hand and denied it.
"Well, you don't believe me, there's no need to discuss, I'll let that thing out."
After that, Zu Zhong was about to go back to room 404 and prepare to release Chen Rugui.
"Don't, don't, we believe in you, okay!" Seeing this, the manager was also shocked, and hurriedly stopped Zuzhong, and then said to Fu Zeren on the side, "Give him the money." ”
"But......" Fu Zeren wanted to say something more, but was stopped by the manager with a look.
In the end, Fu Zeren had no choice but to hand the three thousand yuan that had been packed in an envelope bag in advance to Zu Zhong.
Zu Zhong took the money, counted it carefully a few times, and after confirming that it was all genuine, he put the money into the cloth bag with a smile.
"You put away these talismans, one post the gate, one post the top floor gate, and the rest with self-defense, that's it, say goodbye!"
Stuffing a few talismans to the manager, Zu Zhong pulled the ethereal spirit and went back to his room.
Looking at Zu Zhong's departing back, a ghostly aura flashed in Fu Zeren's eyes, and Zu Zhong immediately stopped, then turned around and looked around.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Zu Zhong's movement like this, the ethereal spirit asked.
After looking around several times and finding nothing, Zu Zhong scratched his head and responded with a frown: "It should be that I am too careful, it's okay, let's go." ”
There was such a small episode, time has passed a lot, back to the room to look at the time, it was almost three o'clock in the morning, so the two of them fell asleep, after all, the next day had to go to the orphanage to investigate.
The time of sleep always passed quickly, and when Zuzhong woke up, it was already eleven o'clock at noon, and after getting up and washing up, he opened the door, and it was a coincidence that the ethereal spirit also opened the door.
After the two looked at each other and smiled, they left the hotel and took a taxi to the address where the orphanage was located.
The car ran all the way, and soon came to the gate of the orphanage, just got off the car, is to see the four big characters at the door - Pingle Courtyard.
The orphanage looks a bit old, but the overall feel is pretty good. There are a few children playing in the yard, and all of them have happy smiles on their faces.
Seeing this, Zuzhong is also very pleased, for these children, it is great to be able to find a partner to play with.
After registering at the door, Zuzhong found the director of the orphanage under the leadership of a woman.
The dean was an old man who looked very kind, probably in the year of the sixtieth year, and when he saw Zuzhong and Ethereal, he smiled and asked the two to sit down and talk.
"Young man, my girlfriend is so beautiful, is there anything wrong with me?"
Hearing the dean's praise, Ethereal couldn't help but blush, while Zu Zhong was happy in his heart.
"I almost forgot, my surname is Huang, just call me Dean Huang."
After introducing each other, Dean Huang also said that the name of the ancestor was very interesting, and he laughed to himself for a while before accepting it.
"Dean Huang, this time we are here to investigate an orphan from twenty years ago."
Hearing Zu Zhong say this, Dean Huang's expression was a little dazed.
"If that's the case, I didn't mean to hide it from you......"
Hearing this, Zu Zhong and Ethereal also raised their eyebrows, is there anything hidden that can't be done?
"This courtyard has only been built for ten years, if you look for information from 20 years ago, will you come to the wrong place?"
What the?! Zu Zhong and Ethereal Soul never expected it, Zu Zhong hurriedly took out the note given by the old lady yesterday, checked it carefully, and handed it to Dean Huang to read it again, confirming that it was right here.
So how so? Could it be that there is something wrong with that old lady?
"Are you sure it's only been 10 years since it was built?" Zu Zhong finally confirmed with Dean Huang.
"I'm pretty sure, even before the orphanage was built, it was a wasteland, you can go to the Land Bureau and look it up." Dean Huang nodded and said with great certainty.
"No, we believe you." Zu Zhong waved his hand.
Since this is the case, there is no need to stay any longer, Zu Zhong and Ethereal Spirit said goodbye to Dean Huang and left the orphanage.
"What now?"
"Go back to Linhai Road and ask the old lady."
After making up my mind, I flagged down a taxi and headed for Linhai Road.
When he came to No. 27 Linhai Road, Zu Zhong got out of the car and walked directly to knock on the door.
Soon, the door opened, and it was a sleepy-eyed woman who rubbed her eyes and asked Zuzhong what they were doing in Hokkien.
"What about yesterday's old lady?" Seeing this, Zu Zhong asked.
"What old lady? I don't know, I've been living alone here, and I only came back early this morning, so don't bother me if there's nothing to do, I have to make up for sleep. ”
The woman threw out a sentence like a cannonball, that is, she closed the door, leaving one of her ancestors alone in the wind.
No way?! What is the situation with this Nima!
Zu Zhong was confused, so how should he explain it yesterday?
Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he pulled the ethereal spirit to stop a car again.
"Master, Ankang Nursing Home, hurry up, hurry!"
The driver also nodded, exerted force under his feet, and soon rushed to the Ankang Nursing Home.
Dropping two hundred yuan, Zu Zhong hurriedly got out of the car and walked to the nursing home.
found Zhuge Qiang again, and the two of them got an unexpected news - Zhou Zhou was picked up by yesterday's people.
In this way, the clues on the southern side of Fujian are completely broken.
Zu Zhong almost vomited blood, the investigation in the past few days has been in vain, Made, so much time has been wasted!
"Brother Zuzhong, what should I do?"
"Check out, book a ticket, and go back to Xihang."
It's all come to this point, Zuzhong naturally no longer hesitates, and decisively decides to go back to Xihang to see what Old Man Wang has to say.
