In the middle of summer, at one o'clock in the morning, the monitoring room on the first floor of the Star City Building.

I sat in front of the monitor with three security guards, the monitor screen was about 40 inches in size, and there were nine screens on the screen, and the screens kept switching as a small/bearded security guard kept operating, showing the various floors of the Star City Building and the stairwell. It can be said that this set of surveillance has shone into all corners of the Star City Building.

A bearded man raised his hand and looked at his watch, and said, "It's almost, it's almost this time to come out every day." His words trembled slightly, as if something very frightening was going to happen.

"Come out...... Look...... You...... You guys...... See! The thick-lipped security officer who had been leaning in front of the screen pointed to the screen in the upper right corner of the screen and shouted incoherently.

I looked in the direction of the finger of the thick lips, this is a floor picture, the floor display is the 19th floor, just in the direction of the camera, there is a faint figure moving, yes, it is a faint shadow, because we can see the floor display number through this shadow.

"Shhhhhh ”

The shadow seems to be showing off something, not going anywhere else, just dangling in front of the camera.

"Can you make the screen bigger?" I said to the little / mustache.

"Yes...... OK! "Small/Beard trembles and controls the surveillance screen, nine screens become one screen, and the content of the screen becomes a parking lot.

"Mistaken...... Wrong! Wait...... Wait! "Small/Beard shuddered and pressed a few buttons, and the picture cut back to the 19th floor, the faint figure was still swaying in front of the camera, the picture was so big, I could even see that the shadow was long hair, and a long tongue hanging down.

"This is the hanged man, I'm going to subdue him!" I got up and grabbed the peachwood sword beside me, and said to the bearded man, "Captain Zhou, you go with me!" I need a helper! ”

"What? I...... I'll go? Captain Zhou said in shock.

"That's right! Don't be afraid! I'm here! I cried out for comfort.

"Go...... Just go. Captain Zhou was about to shirk, seeing that the two subordinates were looking at him, he couldn't help swallowing the unfinished words, and changed his words. Taking a deep breath, as if trying to restrain his fear, he moved his neck, made a gurgling sound, grabbed a glue stick, and looked at me with a twinkle in his eyes, not knowing whether it was fear or resentment.

I smiled and walked towards the door of the monitoring room, and Captain Zhou's voice came from behind me: "You two look carefully, come to support immediately if the situation is not right!" ”

The two got on the elevator, I pressed the 19th floor, and the elevator began to rise slowly.

Captain Zhou's face was a little pale, his two eyes looked around, but his eyes were blank, it was obvious that he was very resistant to what was going to happen next, but he was forced to hold on because of his face, I was so angry and funny, and I was about to say two words of comfort, when suddenly the elevator light went black, and then it stopped with a click.

I could hear a gurgling sound coming from Captain Zhou's throat, presumably terrified to the extreme, wanting to shout but unable to shout.

"!" I cursed, took out a lighter and lit it, and what caught my eye was Captain Zhou's bloodless face. I wasn't scared to death by the ghost, but I was almost scared to death by you, I scolded myself angrily, transferred the lighter to the elevator button, and pressed the emergency call button.

The call button is connected to the surveillance security room, and the sound of a mustache is heard from inside. I told me about the situation, but they said there was nothing out of the ordinary. Before he could continue to ask, the call was cut off, and at the same time, the lights in the elevator began to flicker constantly, and the atmosphere suddenly became weird.

"This ...... What is it? "Captain Zhou squeezed to my side tremblingly.

"What's what?" I asked.

"Look! See...... Look at this! Captain Zhou trembled and stretched out his fingers, pointing to the mirror in the elevator and said.

I turned my head and saw a floating shadow in front of the mirror, which was the same shadow floating in front of the camera just now.

"! Eat me with a sword! I put away the lighter, picked up the mahogany sword, and slashed, and in the flickering lights, I didn't know if I had hit it. After chopping for a while, I took out a small cloth bag, muttered a few incantations in my mouth, and shouted: "Take!" ”

Holding a small cloth bag in the air for a while, when I took it back, there seemed to be something jumping around in the cloth bag, I tied the cloth bag and coughed dryly: "Captain Zhou, it's okay!" ”

As if to verify my words, the elevator immediately returned to normal, Captain Zhou looked at the cloth bag in my hand that kept beating, his face was full of incredulity, and he said, "This ...... That's good? ”

"Would you like to turn it out and show you?" I shook the bag in my hand and smiled.

There was a creaking sound from inside the bag.

Captain Zhou hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, looking very relieved.

……

Coming out of the Star City Building, I walked more than 300 meters along Dongfeng Road, and a motorcycle roared behind me, stopping beside me abruptly, and the fat man driving the car whistled at me: "Brother Ghost, they don't suspect it, right?" ”

"It's Brother Kui! Hell, your sister! I laughed and scolded, took out a stack of money from my pocket, "Suspicion fart, the money is given!" ”

"Let's find a place to celebrate!" The fat man laughed.

"Wait, I'll let this guy go first!" I untied the small cloth bag, and a little mouse jumped out of it, and the little mouse jumped twice on the ground, and got into the sewer with a smoke, and I stepped on the motorcycle of the young man with glasses with a peachwood sword, and drove away.

That's right, I'm just swaggering, the ghost shadow on the floor of the building is just a projection of a miniature projector, the projector was installed in the floor vent by the fat man in advance, and there is a specialization in the art industry, as for how the fat man climbed into the vent, I won't disclose. And my lighter, which is also a small projector, is used to fool Captain Zhou. Elevator malfunction? The fat man had already secretly equipped a key to the elevator control room.

My name is Zhong Zhengnan, and the legendary Zhong Kui is also called Zhong Zhengnan. It is said that my ancestor is really Zhong Kui. Because of this, people on the road call me Zhong Kui, of course, don't expect people on the road to be more educated, most of the people who are mixed don't know this word, and most of them are called Zhong ghosts.

The fat man is my assistant and my friend, named Ding Shaocheng, I met him when I was playing black boxing, he has good kung fu and often bragged that he had mixed up with Shaolin Temple.

I have a façade in a wholesale market in the east of the city, the signboard on the front of the door is black on a white background, 'Zhong Kui helps you', and there is an X display rack at the door, which writes some main business and charging standards, which is nothing more than some '5000 ghosts, 2000 ghosts, 300 ...... of enlightenment magic weapons' and so on. Every once in a certain time, we create some ghost things in a certain community or building in Star City, and then go to collect ghosts, because of the proper planning, we are actually famous in Star City.

There was a little girl in the store, whose surname was An Mingran. In addition to answering the phone every day, the most important thing for Enron is to take back the X display rack when someone checks it, and feudal superstition is not advocated.

I drank a lot yesterday, and I didn't get up until four o'clock in the afternoon today, after washing, I went out and bought half a scallion pancake on the side of the road, and I ate all the way to the store, and I looked up and saw that it was me, said hello, and continued to bow her head in her online world.

casually asked if there was a phone call to me, An Ran sighed, seemed to remember this time, flipped through a note on the desktop and handed it to me, on which was written a person's name, 'Jinyang'.

"At nine o'clock in the morning, this person came to you, and he asked you to call him back and say you knew his number." The little girl said.

"Yes, okay!" I ate the rest of the scallion pancake in a few bites, took a tissue and wiped my hands, and took out the phone to dial.

Jin Yang is my high school classmate and a very good friend of mine. His father, Kim Jin-jung, is one of the most successful businessmen in Star City. It can be said that in all the money-making industries in Star City, there are shares of Jin Zhenzhong. However, the most authoritative person in the Jin family is his grandfather Jin Mantang, a mysterious old man, and the financial empire of the Jin family was created by him.

And I, just the son of Zhong Dexin, a laid-off worker in the city gear factory, it is said that it is impossible for the worlds of the two people to intersect, but he is my friend, and he is a very good friend. He doesn't necessarily call me at a party, but he certainly calls my kind of friends when he eats barbecue at a roadside stall.

What kind of fame is this guy? Why don't you call my mobile phone if you have something, what do you do when you call the store? It immediately occurred to me that I had set up call forwarding on my phone yesterday.

The phone was connected, no one answered, I didn't care at the time, there were too many possibilities for not answering the phone, going to the toilet, taking a bath, doing massage and health care are possible, and it was good to wait for him to call me back.

Jin Yang didn't call me until the next day, I forgot about it myself, and I was bored in the store to greet Ding Fatzi and An Ran to fight the landlord together, and when I cleaned up the countertop, I saw the note again. I had nothing to do, so I called Jin Yang by the way.

Still no one answered, hey, weird, I hung up with a frown. Seeing me like this, Fat Ding asked curiously, "Brother Ghost, what's the matter?" ”

"It's nothing, my buddy Jin Yang looked for me, called him back and didn't answer the phone."

"Ah, you wouldn't have reached him yet, would you?" An Ran laughed while eating: "I can't imagine that I am looking for you two magic sticks to catch ghosts, I missed a big business!" ”

Enron knows our details, and everyone is familiar with us, so when there are no outsiders, they speak unscrupulously.

"Go, little girl's family, what do you know, we are gods, then you are not a little godmother?" I laughed and scolded.

Ding Fatzi frowned on the side and said: "Jin Yang, Jin Yang, this name is so familiar, it seems that I have just seen it somewhere!" ”

Jin Yang is my friend, and Ding Shaocheng is also my friend, but the two don't know each other, and there is no rule that friends must know each other. When he said this, I also looked at him curiously.

"Jinyang! By the way, isn't it Kim Jin-jung's son? Ding Shaocheng suddenly shouted.

"Yes, that's right! What's wrong? I was surprised.

"Watch the news! Today's Star City Morning Post news! I got bored when I was on the bus this morning, and I was talking about him, Jin Yang. Ding Shaocheng took out his mobile phone and swiped on the screen quickly, maybe the network was a little slow, and he didn't refresh the webpage for a long time, so he leaned next to An Ran and said: "An An, Angela, you let me use you first...... Is the computer OK? ”

Angela is An Ran's screen name, and when she saw Ding Fatman's dead face pasted over, An Ran gave Ding Fat a blank look, got up and got out of the way.

After a while, Ding Shaocheng found the news and pointed it out to me, the title was very attractive, 'The rich three generations lost their conscience for the family property, and Jin Mantang was frightened to death by his grandson. The article is very long, and it quotes a large number of vague words such as 'supposedly', 'maybe', 'seemingly', etc., sprinkled with more than 2,000 words, and its practical words can be made clear in one sentence, Jin Yang pretended to be a ghost at home, and scared his grandfather Jin Mantang to death.

At the end of the article, it was added that Jin Yang had been detained by the police yesterday.

My first feeling was impossible, my impression of Jin Yang was the kind of sunny, handsome, kind and generous person, and it was impossible to do such an outrageous thing. Moreover, Jin Yang himself didn't get any benefit from doing this, he was just a rich third generation, with a father and an uncle, and a pro/elder brother. According to the order of succession, it is not his turn to be cheap.

When he called me, he must have told me something, maybe it had something to do with it.

I found a friend with a lot of background power, Ling Feng, he helped me find a police officer in the detention center, and finally met Jin Yang in the reception room of the detention center.

When I saw Jin Yang, I almost didn't recognize him, his eyes were sunken, his face was haggard, and his whole person was gloomy. Seeing that it was me, Jin Yang's dim eyes began to shine, as if a drowning person saw a piece of driftwood, rushed up and slapped the glass, shouting something in his mouth, I shook the microphone in my hand and motioned for him to pick up the microphone under the glass, this is the isolation room, we can only talk by phone.

Jin Yang grabbed the microphone and shouted hoarsely: "Zhengnan!" You want to save me, only you can save me, I am wronged! ”
