Boss Guo is already starting to get a little excited. When he finished relaying Hu Zongren's words, he lowered his head and began to cry, while telling Hu Zongren that his current women's clothing store had been rented by another travel company before he took over, and before that was this gold shop, where Yun Zhen was killed.

The gold ring was not found on Yun Zhen's corpse, and the cause of her death was also due to the robbery of the gold store, but it seems too bizarre to say that the robber would be careful enough to pull the ring from the corpse's hand. So I made a bold guess that the ring should still be somewhere in this store, but for some reason, I haven't found it. Hu Zongren asked Yunzhen, did you stay to find your own ring? Yunzhen said yes. Hu Zongren asked again, then why do you want to confuse Boss Guo? Yunzhen said that she searched every day, searched for many years, day after day, but never found it, this store has been renovated more than twice, and even if she finds it, she is afraid that it has already been taken away. That day, she felt that she had been dead for so long, even if she found it, she couldn't take it away, she needed help, so she began to deliberately let Boss Guo see it, and after fascinating him, let him become obsessed with herself step by step, hoping to influence him to help him find the ring with his strength. During this period, Boss Guo kept buying her new clothes, although she couldn't wear them, so she pretended to be on this plastic model, so that Boss Guo saw this plastic model as a living woman, and no one had ever been so good to her when she was alive, and gradually she began to be a little reluctant to leave, and she never even thought that Boss Guo was a family man.

When I heard Yunzhen say this, I couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic, there is a saying that people are dying, their words are good, Yunzhen herself does not seem to be a bad person, she is also an innocent victim, after being deprived of her life, she also found that she lost her most beloved things, which seems to be reasonable. So I said to Yun Zhen, after you told us this, did you still refuse to leave willingly, but you must find the gold ring before you give up? Yunzhen nodded, then stood up, still hiding behind the plastic model, looking at us, no longer the trembling of fear before, but a kind of firmness.

I know that if we don't help it find the ring, it probably won't be willing to follow us. And Hu Zongren and I both think that Yunzhen herself is a pitiful and dead person, if we break it up rudely, I'm afraid we will be unhappy in our own hearts. But after all, it was Boss Guo's shop, and Boss Guo might not be willing to open the store, just to help a female ghost find a lost ring. So Hu Zongren and I both focused our eyes on Boss Guo. I said to Boss Guo, would you like to help find it? What I didn't expect was that Boss Guo almost didn't think about it, and he told me very firmly that he was willing.

Hu Zongren asked Yunzhen, you died here, do you remember where you were when you died? Hu Zongren is actually very cruel when he says this, because we all understand that it is a special thing to let a ghost recall his own death. Ghosts are most afraid of seeing their own appearance, because what they see is always the worst appearance when they die, this is why many rural houses will hang a mirror at the door, usually called a demon mirror, but in fact, it is actually a ghost passing by to see their own appearance in the mirror, so that they feel scared, and they will not enter the house. After hearing Hu Zongren's question, Yun Zhen obviously hesitated, and then didn't say a word, just pointed to the ground, where it was standing.

I think Yunzhen means that the place where it stands is the place where it was killed. This can also be explained by the fact that whether it is from the video or with our own eyes, we see that its position is behind the model. So I asked Boss Guo, can I take it apart here and find it? Boss Guo boldly agreed.

Because of this incident, Boss Guo was out of business for several days, and we didn't do anything to Yunzhen that day, but from our point of view, we still have to give Yunzhen a precaution, and this precaution must be cold, that is, we pierced a villain and sealed Yunzhen's ghost on this villain with Hu Zongren's charm. Since Boss Guo is not a professional after all, we asked someone to pry open the cabinet board attached to the wall, and in the gap between the cabinet board and the wall, we found many clothes that Boss Guo gave to Yun Zhen during the initial period, all of which were folded well, and Yun Zhen didn't take it away at all, but Boss Guo thought it was taken away. After disassembling the boards, we didn't let the workers stay in the house, but the three of us used small chisels to look around little by little. In those days, I learned something from Mr. Guo about what I learned from Mr. Fan at first, I asked him if he put the broken plastic model downstairs in Mr. Fan's house, and smashed the glass in the house, Boss Guo flatly denied it, and asked me why I asked this, I didn't continue, because if I continued, it might involve Boss Guo's wife who suspected him of being unfaithful and hired a private detective to investigate his affairs. Why bother to destroy the harmony of other husbands and wives?

In the process of searching, my compass still helped a little, this house was built in the 80s, it is an old house, so most of the load-bearing structures are still mainly brick structures, and many newly built reinforced concrete are different, those things will have a certain interference with the compass, so after several days of searching, through the weak reaction of the compass, we finally pried open the floor tiles on the ground in the position where the plastic model stood earlier, and even found the wooden stakes that were laid when the ground was leveled. In the gap between the wood and the concrete floor, a gold ring was found that had turned dull yellow and had some oxidation. It was a very fluttery gold ring, the kind that could change size freely, and the seams were wound with thin red ropes, but due to the passage of time, most of the ropes had broken, and it was no longer red, but the kind of faded red. When I found the ring, my compass began to spin a little harder, and I could tell that it was Yunzhen's happiness and excitement.

Before sending Yun Zhen away, Hu Zongren and I left a few hours for Boss Guo to say goodbye to Yun Zhen. In my opinion and Hu Zongren, Boss Guo's love for Yunzhen may not be real, he is just fascinated. Yunzhen may not really be reluctant to Boss Guo, she cares more about her ring. Considering that Yun Zhen had a hard life before her death, the person who killed her had been executed ten years ago, and although Mr. Guo was being used, his original intention was only to find things and not harm people, so although we didn't use a high-standard way to lead the way, at least let her walk comfortably. We did not continue to participate in the rest of the repair work, and let Boss Guo complete it himself.

After everything was done, almost a week later, we called Mr. Fan to tell him that it was all done and that he promised to pay the commission as soon as he received the payment from the wife.

On that day, it was almost 5 p.m. when I was done, and I asked Hu Zongren if he wanted me to send him back, and he said no. I said, would you take a taxi back? He said go to your house, I really want to eat your sister's food. I called Sister Cai and said that Hu Zongren would have dinner with us in the evening, so that she didn't have to prepare too well, just generally.

Hu Zongren and I will definitely drink when we eat together, but because the beer at home is out of drink, no one wants to run errands to buy wine, so Hu Zongren greedily aimed at the bottle of dusty Moutai that I have treasured for many years and deliberately placed on the wine cabinet that I can see as soon as I enter the house, so we both started to drink this out-of-print and expensive bottle of wine with ordinary meals, he drank very refreshingly, but every time I took a sip, my mouth was full of the taste of money.

I asked Hu Zongren, when I was in the store at the time, I obviously hid it, why do you want to call Yunzhen's name, what if it is an evil ghost? Hu Zongren smiled and did not answer. I said can you stop being so stupid in the future, and don't drag me into the water if you want to die. Hu Zongren looked at me and smiled and said, brother, I'm really tired.

Tired? What do you mean? I asked him. Hu Zongren said that because of this, too many people have been involved, and he finally understands what he is doing, and I will gradually start to get tired of all this. Hu Zongren said, working with you is different from doing things alone, you always have to get to the bottom of it, in order to kill good people. But every time I do this with you, the burden on my heart is heavier. Hu Zongren took a sip of wine and continued, I used to think that I was born to die, and if I couldn't solve my obsession after death, I would become a ghost. We are the ones who catch ghosts and fight ghosts, just like the policemen and thieves, but these days, it seems to me that they are not thieves at all, and even many of them are more free and easy than us living, more comfortable, but they are dead, you always say that this ghost is pitiful, that ghost is pitiful, have you thought about it? In fact, we are pitiful, and it is pitiful to live.

I put down my wine glass, Hu Zongren rarely spoke so seriously, so I was still very unaccustomed to it. I asked him, what do you mean by that? Want to give up again? He shook his head and said that he was just tired and wanted to run. I said, where did you flee to? There is always a way for these people to find you, can you let go of the people around you? Let's not talk about it, what should Fu Yunni do, how did you promise the old man?

I was a little excited, and I asked him out loud, if you think that doing these things for you between buddies would make you feel guilty, why don't you just die? What are we all doing to scourge us! Hu Zongren was also angry, he put the wine glass on the table, the wine glass was broken, the wine in it was worth at least 50 yuan, he stood up and yelled at me, yes, I just think you are dragging me back, you make me feel that we are doing the right thing for the heavens, and we have to bear so much emotional pressure, have you thought about their pity when you kill chickens and fish? Why do you feel sorry for the dead who have nothing to do with you? You bastards, what a fucking hypocrisy!

I was angry all of a sudden, and punched Hu Zongren in the face, and Sister Cai saw that we were fighting, so she was so frightened that she stood up and took several steps back. Hu Zongren and I just punched me back and forth, the things on the table were shattered, and I was easy to lose weight when I lost my mind, and the Moutai bottle with a small half bottle left was also broken by me to knock Hu Zongren's head, and I was tired, and we sat on the floor with our hands on the floor, glaring at each other, panting.

I stood up, looked at the wound on my hand, and asked Hu Zongren, are you okay? Hu Zongren said angrily, it's okay. I said can you still walk? He didn't answer, just nodded. I said get out of here, never come to me, the one who dragged his feet, and remember to close the door for me.

After that, I went back to the house by myself.
