If you think about it, the detective agency is really similar to a hotel, and the key work in the initial stage is to retain repeat customers, and another point is to locate accurately and select the target customer group.

Qiao Wei and I have done a very good job in these two points.

Since the completion of the first business, there have been many guests from the Yang family, the Qiu family, and Hou Zifeng's small circle of rich children in the next month or so. These people either consulted some supernatural questions, or asked Qiao Wei to go to the house to check it out, and leave a button to ward off ghosts and evil spirits, although it was not a big job, but the total sum of zero and zero added up to more than 50,000 yuan this month.

Qiao Wei meant five or five accounts, but my opinion was four or six, and I was four and six. Although our store is called a detective agency, and it was opened in my name, in fact, it is Qiao Wei who does the work of the main beam, and he is also the one who has the most investment in the early stage, so I am already very greedy to take a "four".

But Qiao Wei still disagreed with my allocation method, and Zuihou decided to take four too, so that "two" would be used as an emergency fund for the detective agency, and the money would be withdrawn from here when there was any special need.

This is a good idea, and I didn't fight with him anymore, so our final account sharing plan was also according to Qiao Wei's plan.

The matter of splitting the accounts was settled, but after the first snow fell in November, the detective agency's business suddenly became cold. In the past, every day, regardless of whether there was work or not, one or two people would come to us to sit and chat, but after the snow, no one came to the door for several days, and there was no phone.

I know that no matter what kind of business is in the off-season and high-season, and it is impossible for the detective agency to have customers come to the door every day, but I still suspect that Ba Zhai Tang may be behind the ghost and wants to block our shop, so I plan to ask Qiao Wei to ask Mr. Qi to ask.

As a result, before Qiao Wei could ask, a customer call also dispelled my concerns in this regard - Zheng Cheng introduced us to a big business.

Zheng Cheng has an old friend who does the bathing city business, and recently there have been some strange things in his friend's house that are difficult to explain, so Zheng Cheng recommended this friend to come to Qiao Wei's detective agency with me.

Zheng Cheng's friend's surname is Gu, and his single name is a maple character, and half an hour after Zheng Cheng's phone call, Gu Feng came to the detective agency.

Gu Feng should also look like he is in his forties and fifty, but his figure is maintained very well, he does not have a general's belly, and he feels like he is tiger when he walks, in short, he is very imposing, not like the kind of nouveau riche tyrant who eats Haisai every day. In addition, he is also dressed very plainly, without gold chains and gold watches, and should be a very low-key person on weekdays.

However, the two expressionless fierce characters who came with him made it impossible for him to keep a low profile anyway. Those two bodyguard-like figures never left Gu Feng's side. After Gu Feng entered the waiting room and sat down, the two bodyguards also stood straight behind Gu Feng, and at the same time, their eyes were vigilantly observing the surroundings.

I poured a cup of tea for this Gu Feng and handed it over, and at the same time smiled and said, "Your two bodyguards are very professional!" They can't all be from the special forces, right? ”

Gu Feng raised his eyebrows in surprise and said in Mandarin with a slight Cantonese accent: "How can you tell?" ”

His reaction has proven me right. Of course, I won't tell him that I am fifty percent leaning on the blindfold, but I said in a very certain tone: "They straddle in a very military posture, and the first thing they observe when they enter the door is the door and window, which is the best way to evacuate when confirming that they are in danger, and they finally choose to stand behind you, but this is not out of politeness, but because you have a wall behind you, which is a dead end, so that they can easily observe the whole living room, and they will not be attacked on their backs." This shouldn't be the usual training of ordinary bodyguards, right? ”

"Good eyesight! Looks like I'm not going to make a trip in vain this time. "Gu Feng obviously likes me to pretend to be a 13 opener.

"So let's get straight to the point, what's the trouble you're in?" I asked.

"That's a long story......

Subsequently, Gu Feng also told me and Qiao Wei in detail about the strange things he encountered.

Gu Feng's family was not surnamed Gu in the past, but surnamed Guo. His grandfather's generation was rich, and his relatives were also very rich, and they all said that the rich were unkind, and the Gu Feng family was also such a family.

The Guo family's ancestral home is in Guangdong, and according to Gu Feng's own admission, his grandfather made his fortune from sweatshops earlier. Later, during World War II, the family moved to Hong Kong, where they made a fortune and then went to Vietnam and Laos to continue their old trade, which was sweatshops.

The money their family made at that time was really the blood of the workers. In order to earn a meager income, those workers almost had to work more than 14 hours a day, and some people vomited blood from exhaustion, or even died of exhaustion in the factory, but the factory would only compensate for the full salary of the month.

If there is more work that lacks morality, there will naturally be more people who hate them, so since Grandpa Gu Feng's generation, they need to hire a large number of bodyguards to ensure the safety of themselves and their families.

In Gu Feng's father's generation, Chinese mainland reform and opening up, their Guo family also gave up the OEM factory in Southeast Asia and returned to the mainland to develop.

The Guo family did not do sweatshops anymore, but like other tycoons, they targeted real estate and started their family's hotel chain business. Originally, the Guo family's career had been thriving, but a disaster suddenly struck and brought a devastating blow to the family.

Gu Feng's grandfather who had an accident first. Gu Feng's grandfather, who had retired from the business world to recuperate at home, was suddenly cut in the mansion, and Gu Feng's grandmother, as well as three servants and an indoor bodyguard at home, were also killed, and the murder weapon turned out to be a razor that shaved his face.

There was a monitor in the mansion, but the surveillance failed for unknown reasons on the night of Gu Feng's accident, and the bodyguards who kept vigil outside the mansion did not find any foreign intruders at all.

After a series of meticulous investigations, the on-site investigators finally came to the conclusion that the deceased committed mass suicide with the same razor. Such a result is unacceptable in any way, not only by the Guo family, but also by the police in charge of investigating the case, and even by the on-site investigators themselves.

The Guo family used to make money from sweatshops, so the police could only suspect that it was an assassin, and to put it plainly, someone hired a professional killer.

Professional killers are people who are more difficult to track down than serial killers, because they have no fixed methods, and the victims do not have fixed characteristics, they are completely paid to do things, and the killings are clean and never leave any clues for the police to trace.

In the end, the case remained unsolved.

In the following ten years, Gu Feng's uncle, second uncle, and aunt's family were also wiped out one after another.

The method of death is also the same as when Gu Feng's grandfather was killed at the beginning, from the scene it looks like a collective suicide, and the murder weapons used are all commonly used tools at home, such as fruit knives, kitchen knives, wrenches, screwdrivers, etc.

The Guo family, which was originally prosperous, was almost completely wiped out in just ten years, and only Gu Feng's father was still alive.

At that time, Gu Feng's father could no longer believe that the police had the ability to protect their family, so he believed in ghosts and gods, and found many physiognomy masters and gods to tell fortunes. The Zuihou masters came to the conclusion that the Guo family had been cursed because of the grievances accumulated by the previous generation, and if they wanted to break the curse, they had to change their name and surname and abandon their past.

So Gu Feng's father gave up the surname Guo, and changed his surname to Gu according to the advice provided by the physiognomy, and then moved his family north to Beijing, and kept a low profile everywhere.

In 2000, Gu Feng met his current wife, because his wife's hometown was in the Northeast, so he simply moved to the Northeast with his family. In this way, it is farther away from his ancestral hometown of Guangdong, and Gu Feng and Gu Feng's father also feel that it will be safer psychologically.

Thirteen years have passed since the beginning of the peaceful days, but on the night of the first snow since the beginning of winter in November this year, another murder occurred in Gu Feng's house. His father committed suicide by swallowing a bullet in bed, and the same pistol also took the life of the nanny who was responsible for taking care of Gu Feng's father's daily life.

That night, Gu Feng took his wife and children to attend a friend's birthday banquet, and did not return home until twelve o'clock in the evening, so he survived.

The next day, he divorced his wife and left the child in the care of his mother, fearing that the curse would implicate his family, so he had to make this decision. His home has now been cordoned off by the police as a crime scene, and he himself has hidden in what he thinks is very safe, and has hired two retired special forces to protect him 24 hours a day.
