Afeeeee didn't interrupt Lin Fang's words from beginning to end, and she finally explained the story clearly in fits and starts.

As is customary, I don't take it right away. She's a rich man. The difference between tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands was not much for her, and I could tell from her words that she already thought that the investigation was dangerous, and I only had to further determine that it was really not a good job. After that, if I raise the price again, the success rate will be much higher.

So I leaned back into my chair and remained silent with a tight frown.

Lin Fang waited for me for a while, and when he saw that I hadn't meant to speak, he couldn't help but ask, "Is this matter difficult for you?" "

"Difficulty," I said in a deliberate long voice, "I'm not sure for sure, but you said that the previous private detective had disappeared, and I had to take the danger into account." "

"You're not sure?" Lin Fang's attitude suddenly changed. She seemed to be starting to question my abilities.

This situation is not good, I quickly turned the conversation back and said: "There are no absolutes in the world, I must make the best plans." What we have to deal with in this industry is, to put it bluntly, either ghosts or monsters. It's not that I'm worried about myself, but the main thing is that I have to make sure that my investigation doesn't alert Tong Zhuang, and I'm afraid that he will do something bad for you. "

"He, he shouldn't," Lin Fang's words were a little hesitant.

"You may be right, he may not do anything to you, but have you ever thought that he would leave you completely? I think it's more devastating to you to do nothing at nothing and disappear from you completely. "

My words finally worked, Lin Fang was stunned for a moment, the nervous look on her face was undoubtedly her truest emotion now, and she no longer carried out any disguise in front of me. I think it's time for the next step as well.

"Are you sure you came to my side today, Tong Zhuang didn't know?" I asked.

"He shouldn't know, unless he's following me, but it shouldn't be, I think he's afraid of the sun." Lin Fang said.

"Well, that's fine, you go back today and act as if nothing happened. Then I will visit you tonight, and you will treat me as if you don't know me, and as soon as a stranger arrives at your house in the middle of the night, you can do whatever you should do, and I will take care of the rest. "

Lin Fang obviously didn't know what I was trying to do, but she didn't ask anything else, just nodded, and then took the initiative to ask me about the cost.

I told her that the cost of my usual trip to the school is 50,000 yuan, but considering the risk of this operation, I must increase some expenses, and how much to increase depends on the fact that I will meet Tong Zhuang tonight.

Lin Fang nodded happily and agreed, and left me a check for 50,000 yuan as an advance deposit.

Finally, I asked what the private detective she had hired before was called and where the detective agency was located, and after all these were recorded, I sent her out of Leyitang. Immediately afterwards, I exchanged the check for cash, so that I would not have too many nights, and then I went to prepare the tools for catching ghosts and demons.

From what Lin Fang said alone, I can't judge for the time being, what is the origin of Tong Zhuang. I can't see any traces of being haunted by ghosts on Lin Fang's body, and she looks good, she feels quite moisturized, it seems that Tong Zhuang has no ill will towards her, I care more about the missing private detective.

The self-defense guys were all brought, and I immediately set off to go to the Mingkai Detective Agency.

The size of the detective agency is not small, the office is larger than mine, and there are many people in it. As soon as I entered the door, a beautiful woman in a short skirt took me to the living room, and after handing me coffee, she asked me why I came, and she didn't care if the cup of coffee was given for free, which was quite similar to me.

I told her that I came here to appoint a detective named "Shi Hai" to help me investigate.

As soon as the front desk heard me say the name Shi Hai, he immediately shook his head apologetically and said, "Detective Shi doesn't work here anymore." "

"Oh? Where did he go? Do you have any contact information for him? I just want to find him. I said. Private wood long stroke.

The front desk apologized again and said no, and offered to introduce other excellent detectives to help me with the investigation, and I insisted on naming Shi Hai. In the end, there was no choice, this beautiful woman could only go to the manager of the detective agency, and soon, a middle-aged man about 40 years old came over and invited me to his office.

He is about the same height as me, and his figure is not as fat as the average 40-year-old man, and he seems to exercise regularly. When it comes to appearance, it should be the so-called mature and handsome uncle, it is estimated that there will be many women who are obsessed with men of his type, and it is no wonder that his detective agency can be so big.

After they sat down, the middle-aged man was very curious and asked me why I insisted on seeing Shi Hai.

I replied that Shi Hai is more famous in the industry, and I only trust him, and I will not invite others. I thought I was absolutely foolproof when I said this, because I believe that the detective chosen by a woman like Lin Fang must not be an idle person.

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man laughed and shook his head.

"Shi Hai has only been a detective for half a year now, where did he get his fame? What exactly is your purpose for this guest? "

"Half a year?" I couldn't help but frown.

The middle-aged man's eyes were very sharp, needless to say, he was as well versed as I was in the way of observing words and feelings, and it was probably not easy for me to lie in front of him. However, I didn't have anything to hide in front of him, so I simply said bluntly: "Actually, I took the same job as Shi Hai, and I heard that he was missing, so I want to know what the situation is, lest I also suffer the same accident." "

"Lin Fang of Great Ronghua hired you?" The middle-aged man asked.

"Yes." I nodded.

"Oh? How much did you charge her? "

"50,000."

"Too little." The middle-aged man shook his head again, "I advise you to give up, it's not worth it to ruin yourself for ten years for such a little money." The middle-aged man said.

"Ten years? What does this mean? I continued to ask.

The middle-aged man shook his head and chuckled, and then said, "Didn't you want to ask Shi Hai about the situation?" Actually, he didn't go missing, he just couldn't work anymore. Lin Fang came to me half a month ago, and I sued him that Shi Hai was missing, but in fact, I didn't want to have anything to do with this woman anymore. I can see that what you said later is true, so I won't play with you, if you want to understand things, give you this. "

As he spoke, the middle-aged man handed me a business card. I took it and looked at it, the name on it was Mingkai, and there was a string of handwritten addresses below the company address, as well as a landline phone number.

"This is my business card, you can find Shi Hai by following this address, and you said on the phone that Ming Kai asked you to meet him, and I will also say hello to him." If you still want to make Lin Fang's money after listening to his words, then I can only wish you good luck. The middle-aged boyfriend said kindly.

I thanked him, then went out and found Shi Hai at the address he gave.

Shi Hai lived in a small villa, very haggard, his cheeks were sunken, as if he had a serious illness, and he was covered with a layer of miasma all over his body.

Since I had already communicated on the phone, he didn't ask much and let me into the house. As soon as I entered the house, I almost choked on the turbid air and coughed.

"You should open the windows for ventilation." I said with my nose gagged.

Shi Hai smiled bitterly, and then looked depressed, walked to the sofa and sat down, and wrapped the clothes on his body tightly.

In fact, the air in this room does not have any peculiar smell, but it has not been ventilated for too long, and the air in the room is relatively dry and hot. But I always feel something more than usual, like the miasma in this house.

The difference between yin and miasma is obvious.

Yin Qi is emitted from the ghost's body, a kind of black smoke-like thing, sometimes very thick, sometimes slightly lighter, and the color will be gray, they will affect my vision when they fill the room, and if it is too heavy, it will also cool the air, but there will be no special smell.

The miasma is different, its color is very cloudy, as if mixed pigments fill the air, and there is a strange smell that can't be said to be smelly or disgusting, and it is easy to think of illness or death when I see it. I see these things a lot in hospitals, especially in intensive care units.

There is no yin qi in the villa where Shi Hai is staying, but the miasma is extremely heavy, and this thing is also the most unbearable for me.

I didn't ask Shi Hai's permission, and directly opened the two windows in front of the living room to allow the air to circulate a little. Then I threw a few more talismans around him, dissipating the miasma that hung around him. After tossing for ten minutes, the air in the room finally made me feel more comfortable, and Shi Hai's face looked a little better than just now.

"You're not a detective, are you?" He seemed to sense the difference himself, so he took the initiative to ask me a question.

"Didn't I sue you before, I'm an onmyoji." I replied.

"I thought you were joking." Shi Hai said with a half-smile.

"Now you believe it?"

"Believe! But you and I advise you not to check on that Tong Zhuang, he" Shi Hai swallowed, and his eyebrows were tightly locked, as if he recalled something that frightened him.

"What's wrong with him?" I asked.

"He knocked me unconscious, and then he took me to a place, like a primeval forest, where I was locked up for ten years!" Shi Hai's expression was solemn, but what he said made people feel like a fantasy.

"You said you were locked up for ten years?" I wondered.

"Incredible, right? But I carved one on the tree with a knife every day in that place, and I carved it for ten years! Every time I wanted to kill myself, he would show up to stop me, and he said it was a lesson for me. Then he released me, and he knocked me unconscious, and when I woke up, he found that I had returned, but the time was not right. "

"Are you sure you're not hypnotized, or hallucinated or something?"

Shi Hai didn't answer me, just raised his hand and motioned for me to wait, and then he got up and went into the back room, and after a while, he took a photo album out.

"Look at this, this is my picture from a year ago, and then you can look at me now." Shi Hai said as he flipped through the album and handed it to me.

I took it and took a look, just a glance, and I knew why Ming Kai persuaded me to give up, and I also knew that Shi Hai was indeed not lying. In the photo, he is more than ten years younger than he is now, and this is not a change that can be caused by a serious illness or being possessed by a demon.

He was stolen for ten years!
