"Yesterday afternoon, a man in the city suddenly fell ill on the street, lost his memory, and behaved like a baby...... The police searched for his relatives and friends through his recent phone contact information, and 17 women appeared at the same time, all claiming to be his girlfriends...... What the hell is this news? Ye Yu pursed his lips and casually handed the electronic newspaper to Zhang Xiaohua on the side. There really is everyone in this world. ”

"Oh, what about the 'life winners' who have paid off the comments of the netizens below......" Xiaohua took the news and glanced at it twice. However, this kind of 'winner in life' was retributed in the end~ Isn't there a saying on the rivers and lakes? 'When you come out to mix, you always have to pay it back'. ”

At this time, Ye Yu was leisurely sitting with Xiaohua in the lunch area of the H Group Building, biting on buns and chatting, and his identity was no longer an investigator, but an ordinary reporter of H Group.

Since that day when Wu learned the Bing method, Ye Yu was admitted to the hospital for surgery. In fact, the speed of his recovery from his injuries was miraculous, and he was almost healed after only two weeks after the operation, which not only surprised the doctors, but also Ye Yu himself, and various examinations did not find out any reason, and the bureau forced him to recuperate for two months before he was allowed to be discharged from the hospital for the sake of insurance.

How come I didn't realize that I had such good physical abilities before? Could it be the reason for Lan Jue's special training for himself before? Ye Yu thought self-deprecatingly. It seems that although the days in the Special Investigation Bureau are often suffered by hospitalization, there are still gains, although there will be no more intersections with the world of investigators in the future......

Well...... I don't think there will be, right? After all, he took the initiative to leave.

When he joined the Special Affairs Investigation Bureau, it was also a temporary measure due to Wu Xuebing's threat to exterminate his mouth, Ye Yu originally planned to wait for this matter to pass before going back to be a reporter, so after being discharged from the hospital, he proposed to Lou Yue to leave. Although Lou Yue didn't agree at first, in the end, he couldn't stand Ye Yu's insistence and agreed to release him, and as promised before, he was arranged back to Group H.

Ye Yu looked at the ring on the index finger of his right hand, it was the same as the previous electric shock bracelet, even smaller, and more comprehensive special equipment, which was also something that Lou Yue told him to wear before Ye Yu left.

"The threat of devouring has not been lifted, and I can't guarantee that they will come to trouble you in the future, so I borrow this thing from you to wear, and if you encounter danger, I may be able to help you."

Although he didn't get along with his colleagues in the Special Affairs Investigation Bureau for a long time, thinking that they had treated him so sincerely, and even considered for his future safety, Ye Yu's heart was inexplicably moved and melancholy.

Wu Xuebing has gone crazy, and the Blood Key Ring has also been broken, so it is estimated that it will be difficult to continue to track down, right? I wonder what they're going to do next?

However, Ye Yu quickly forced himself not to think too much, after all, in his opinion, no matter how worried he was, he couldn't help, and that was not the world he should be in.

"If you have time to chat here, you might as well go out and run the news for me!" A loud reprimand interrupted Ye Yu's thoughts, and he saw Director Wang hurriedly come over and unceremoniously throw Ye Yu a piece of material.

Ye Yu hurriedly took the materials and glanced at them twice, one explanatory material, and the other was a press release.

"The ancient mansion recently acquired by Qianhong Group is rumored to be haunted...... The progress of the new project is blocked......" Ye Yu read the explanatory materials and found that this seemed to be a strange story on the Internet recently.

Qianhong Group is one of the leading real estate companies in China, mainly investing in high-end hotels and resorts, headquartered in Xiayang City. The haunted incident uploaded on the Internet, simply put, is that the group recently acquired a garden villa in the suburbs of Xiayang City, intending to transform it into a high-end hotel.

"I just received the request from above, let's go interview and write a report, you go and see, there are carriage and horse fares." Director Wang said. "Write positively, you can refer to the press release given by the other party."

The meaning of Director Wang's words couldn't be more obvious, even if Ye Yu was a rookie, he would understand it in an instant - didn't he just ask the media to help with crisis public relations.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if the rumors of haunting continue like this, even if the project is successfully implemented, it will have a great impact on the performance of the new hotel, after all, who would want to stay in a haunted hotel? Therefore, it is necessary to use the mouth of the media to tell the public that there is no problem with the house and wash away the rumors of haunting.

In fact, many media have done similar things, as long as they give money, and it is not an event with too bad an impact, it is generally not difficult for the media to write some advertorials in the name of reporting to whitewash the peace, so many companies will contact the media for crisis public relations as soon as something happens, which is already a tacit thing in the industry. And a rookie reporter like Ye Yu with journalistic ideals, although he is disdainful of this kind of advertorial-style reporting, he can only be obedient with his status.

"Qianhong Group...... They really have a lot of negative news, and there were rumors of violent demolition a while ago, and the reviews are super bad......" Ye Yu looked at the material and pursed his lips.

"If you want to go, what are you doing with so much nonsense? Don't hurry up yet! Director Wang yelled impatiently.

"Okay, I'll go right away!" Ye Yu, who came back to his senses, hurriedly responded and said, hurriedly stuffed the meal bag into his mouth, and after quietly glancing at Xiaohua, he picked up the materials and rushed out.

Xiaohua made a "deep sympathy" expression at Ye Yu's back, and then glanced at Director Wang, who was staring at him gloomily, smiled, put down the coffee cup, and quickly ran to work.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

When Ye Yu arrived at the "haunted" ancient mansion, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. The overcast sky darkens the surrounding landscape, and the damp air heralds the arrival of a storm.

It looks like I'm going to change my face this day, and I heard that there is a typhoon tonight. Ye Yu looked up at the black rain clouds, thinking in his heart that he would go as early as possible and return as soon as possible.

From a distance, this old Western-style garden villa stands lonely in the open field, and the surrounding area of the villa has been demolished, and it seems that it is also the land bought by Qianhong Group. I don't know if it's the effect of psychological suggestion, Ye Yu always feels that the villa exudes a gloomy atmosphere, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

Anyway, let's find out first.

Ye Yu calmed down, picked up his bag and approached the villa, only to see a dark and sturdy man standing in front of the iron gate of the villa garden, looking at the person who pretended to be the construction team.

"Hello, I am a reporter from H Group, my surname is Ye ......" Ye Yu just showed his press card, but was interrupted by the other party before he finished speaking.

"I know, you're here for the interview, right? The man reached out and shook Ye Yu's hand, "Hello, my name is Zhou Hao, and I am the captain ......of the construction team here." Come, I'll take you to our office first, sit down and talk slowly. ”

"Okay, then I'll bother you." Seeing that the other party was so cooperative, Ye Yu was relieved, and it seemed that they had really said hello.

Ye Yu followed Zhou Hao into the iron gate of the garden. This villa covers a large area of three floors, and is a large villa of more than 5,000 square meters. Not only does the architectural style follow the European retro style, but also has a large courtyard; The fountain and flower garden wall in the courtyard are delicately decorated with stone carvings, and the layout has also taken a lot of thought, simple but not simple, and it looks like it is designed by a master.

It's just that the fountain looks like it's been dry for a long time, and the flower beds are overgrown with weeds because they have been left untended for a long time. Such an exquisite courtyard now looked shrouded in a deep sense of gloom, which made Ye Yu sigh regretfully.

"Although it looks very dilapidated now, it will definitely look new when we finish renovating." As if sensing Ye Yu's regret, Zhou Hao smiled and turned around to explain.

Zhou Hao's appearance is relatively tough, with a national character face with high cheekbones and a pair of sword eyebrows, even if he is smiling, it makes him not look so kind.

"I've heard that you've had a series of accidents since you moved here two weeks ago, what exactly is ......?" Ye Yu cautiously probed.

"One is dead, one is crazy." Zhou Hao's answer was straightforward.

"There was even a human life?!" Ye Yu was speechless, this point has not even broken out on the Internet, it seems that the news has been blocked by Qianhong Group.

"How did you die? Did the police intervene? ”

"The cause of death was myocardial infarction. Because it was an accident, the police only dealt with it routinely. Zhou Hao said lightly and pushed open the door of the villa. I will talk to you in detail in the specific office. ”

As soon as I stepped into the villa, a smell of antiquity came to my face, there were no lights in the house, and the dim light and empty space made the house even more eerie. However, what is even more strange is that a large black cloth is hanging abruptly on the wall facing the gate, as if to cover something.

"What is this?" Ye Yu asked, pointing to the black cloth.

"This is a portrait of the former owner." Zhou Hao glanced at it and quickly looked away. "I was going to take it down, but the thing was too big to put it in place for a while, so I put a cloth on it first.

Why do you want to cover up the portrait? Ye Yu had some doubts in his heart, but seeing that the other party didn't seem to have the meaning of explanation, he didn't ask any more.

"Then again, it is said that the previous owner of this house was an old man who had lived here alone for decades, how did you convince him to get out of here?" Ye Yu looked around and asked casually.

Zhou Hao's expression froze obviously, then he turned his head away from Ye Yu, and spit out faintly: "He...... He died a few months ago, and later it was his son abroad who sold the house to us. ”

"Ah...... Is it a death? Ye Yu asked.

"It seems to be a failure caused by a sudden allergy, I don't know the specifics......" Zhou Hao didn't seem to want to talk too much about it, so he went straight to the second floor and diverted the topic by the way. By the way, there is a guest in the office now, and he will be there when we are interviewed, so I hope you don't mind. ”

"Guest?"

"Well, it seems like something from above...... Feng Shui Master? ”

Feng Shui Master? Ye Yu was secretly funny, did Qianhong Group think that this house had an accident because of bad feng shui?

"It's okay." Although he complained in his heart, Ye Yu politely said that he didn't mind, in fact, he suddenly became interested in that "feng shui master", and it is estimated that it is not small to let Qianhong Group come forward to invite.

Thinking of this, Ye Yu couldn't help but sketch in his mind the appearance of a Taoist master dressed in a Taoist robe, holding a compass, with a goatee, and an unfathomable face.

Just as Ye Yu was thinking wildly, Zhou Hao stopped.

"The office is here, please come in." Saying that, Zhou Hao pushed the door open.

"Yo, is this the reporter?"

A somewhat frivolous male voice came out, and as soon as Ye Yu walked into the room, he saw a "non-mainstream" young man wearing a black punk T-shirt, sunglasses, and many earrings on his ears was leaning on the sofa, crossing Erlang's legs, and scanning himself up and down.

"This is the feng shui master I mentioned to you just now." Zhou Hao glanced at the man in sunglasses and introduced to Ye Yu with an expressionless face.

"My surname is Liang, my name is Yunxiao, you can call me Master Liang~" The man took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of bright and keen eyes. "It's an honor to meet you."
