Chapter 6: The Woman in Black
"You've already settled this matter, and it's just a show, aren't you?" On the way home, Wan Li asked Bao Datong, "You are not only to make Miss Sun feel that the money is worth spending, but also to advertise." Through her mouth, tell others how wise and powerful you are, and how amazing the tricks you use. Thick, it's a shame that you don't do business. β
"Huh?" Bao Datong responded casually.
He hadn't closed his eyes for two days and one night, and before he solved this matter, he could still maintain his energetic appearance, and when he relaxed a little, he immediately fell into a state of exhaustion.
"I'm praising you for what you did just now, it's so realistic, it's really a blessing in the entertainment industry not to act, and a misfortune for the audience."
Wan Li's tone was ridiculous and helpless, which made Xiao Xia, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, smile when he heard this, and looked at Bao Datong from the rearview mirror, "You say that he has business talent, and you say that he has acting talent, which one is better at it." β
"I'm a jack of all trades, I can do anything." Bao Datong muttered, adjusted his sitting posture, and tried not to let the things piled up on the back seat fall down, which he had spent a day trying to get, and from a certain point of view, it was the guy he ate.
"I don't know how Miss Sun is." Xiao Xia sighed, she didn't understand that a good woman, smart, beautiful, and educated, would have a bright future as long as she worked hard, but she wanted to get herself into this situation.
After the exorcism, Miss Sun refused to let them go, obviously frightened enough. But Bao Datong said that his exorcism action was absolutely thorough, and they would not show any effect if they did not leave, and they could not accompany her for the rest of their lives, so they could get out of it if they talked badly, and of course they did not forget to finalize the amount on the check with Miss Sun when they left, and they would get the money after only a week to make sure that no strange things would happen again.
"Anyway, there is that old man to pay, so we don't have to be polite." Bao Datong is straightforward.
As soon as he came out of the door of Miss Sun's house, Bao Datong told Wan Li and Xiao Xia that this was not a supernatural event, but a human being. The reason why I didn't reveal a little bit of the wind before was because I was afraid that the two who were not good at concealing would behave unnaturally when exorcism.
It turned out that the wife of the rich man who raised Miss Sun finally knew about her husband's affair. However, the woman's personality was more gloomy, and she did not make a big fuss after hearing about it, but secretly investigated Miss Sun's affairs, and soon found that she was unwilling to be lonely, and found a young lover.
So the woman bought off this young man who loved money, and agreed to scare Miss Sun with a ghost incident, so as to achieve the goal of revenge on her, and it was best to drive her crazy.
Bao Datong doubted the authenticity of this unjust and scary incident from the beginning, because he did not find a little ghost in the small western-style building. Pretending to be a ghost to harm others may deceive ordinary people, but Bao Datong has learned to deal with this kind of incident since he was a child, and of course he senses the problem at once. Later, Xiao Xia accidentally discovered the gloomy ghost eye, and Bao Datong cast a spell, and the information fed back by this spell was also clean.
Miss Sun only noticed that the so-called hallucinations disappeared after she asked for some 'holy relics', and did not notice that the timing of her lover's appearance was also related to paranormal events. But Bao Datong noticed this, so after carefully questioning Miss Sun, he ran back to the small western-style building to investigate the situation, and found that the so-called ghosts that appear during the day and at night are actually just the most advanced and small imaging equipment installed in the antique-level telescope.
As for the sound, as long as Miss Sun's young lover carries a miniature recording device with her, those terrible stumps and hair, looking at the various horror toys now, you can understand that it is not difficult to get these things, as long as Miss Sun is not prepared to place them in specific places - in the toilet, in the ventilation pipe, behind the curtains, in the electrical socket -
Miss Sun was very infatuated with her lover, and of course she did not suspect him, nor could she imagine that the 'hallucinations' that he could not hear or see her were in fact just his disguise, just to make her more convinced that there were ghosts haunted by ghosts.
Bao Datong was already suspicious of Miss Sun's lover, and the deliberately amplified sound of the door lock that day, the traces of vandalism in the electric switch outside the hospital, and the small props such as the rope sleeve he found in the man's house explained it all. Moreover, from the expensive old-fashioned telescope, he also deduced that the mastermind behind this incident was the wife of the rich man.
Because antique-level things are rare, it is difficult for non-owners to understand the structure in them, not to mention that the other party has come up with the idea of hiding the image device from inside!
It's that simple, and Miss Sun is sticking to that place because the jealous monopoly will call from time to time every night to check on his attendance, and if he finds that Miss Sun is not there, he is likely to turn his face. Seeing that the time for the transfer of ownership of the house agreed by the two was approaching, in order to keep the things that were about to arrive, Miss Sun had to endure desperately.
Therefore, as Wan Li said, when a person is obsessed with one thing, he may be taken advantage of, and this is true of Miss Sun, her lover, the Monopoly and her wife. And Bao Datong solved this problem by visiting two pretending to be ghosts during the day and 'persuading' them a little, and what he did at night was just to perform an illusion and act a show.
In this way, a week later he got the money, "I am only responsible for the ghost business, and let them solve the interpersonal affairs by themselves." He said.
Soon after, he solved another paranormal incident. A rich man surnamed Wang returned home drunk, and found that the 'demon mirror' at the back door of the hall was pitch black, not reflecting any light, and only the black figure of a woman stood there motionless, turning her head to look at him.
At that time, he was frightened, he didn't care about feces and urine incontinence, and ran upstairs to call his wife and son, and when everyone turned on the lights and dared each other to come downstairs, he found that the big mirror on the ground was standing there well, very normal, and nothing happened at all.
He swore that he was not wrong just now, something must have happened, so he found Bao Datong through his clubbing sister-in-law. Bao Datong took Xiao Xia on a field trip, and the next day he did some magic at Wang Fuman's house, and forcibly pulled out a black shadow from the wall!
Actually, it's still not a ghost, it's man-made, but this time it's an accident.
On the same day, the careful Xiao Xia found that there were traces of the wall peeling off on the side of the mirror, and the little nanny at home flickered her words, so she focused on the investigation, only to find that the little nanny broke the original mirror while the owner was not at home and was playing with her boyfriend. Because the rich man has always been strict, and the family rarely goes in and out of the back door, in order to keep their jobs, she and her boyfriend hurriedly bought an identical mirror and wanted to install it overnight.
Frightened, they casually set up the mirror and ran away, but the little nanny was not in a hurry, and stood motionless by the wall in fright, so that the drunken and dazzled Wang Fuman saw it wrong. When he went upstairs to wake everyone up and explain the situation, the two young men, who were quick enough to do so, had reinstalled the mirrors.
But no matter what the truth is, Bao Datong's ability to catch ghosts and subdue demons spread quickly in the so-called high society, and the business did not get busy immediately, but the number of people who came to the bar to drink increased significantly, and most of them were male customers, and they didn't ask the price of those frightening foreign wines.
"Ah Zhan will kill you when he comes back." Wanli gloated.
Due to the increase in customers, Wan Li and Bao Datong did not know how to mix bartending, so they had no choice but to go to the waiter and change Liu Tie and Ni Yang, two bartenders, to be in charge of the bar. And the busiest time at the moment has passed, and they have time to rest.
"I helped him triple his turnover, what's upset about him!"
"He doesn't love money as much as you do, he likes to be quiet, so the style here has always been elegant, dim, you see you get it, every day it is staggered, and it completely changes his territory."
"You can't blame me for that, I'm also here for work." Bao Datong sighed, he never knew that opening a bar was so tiring, "In these years, there are so many dirty things under the bustle." Everyone is uneasy in their hearts, and many people have ghosts in their hearts. β
"That's right."
"Two old people, borrowed and borrowed." Ni Yang smiled mischievously and squeezed between the two.
"You kid, who is it called!" Bao Datong said loudly.
"We work like this every day, and we have classes during the day, and we don't see anything. You've only been tired for a day, and you're tired like this, aren't you old and physically weak, what is it? Liu Tie in the bar said while wiping his glass.
"It's just a matter of habit, I don't do it. Look at Wan Li, he is the flower of all medical girls--don't push me, let me educate these two guys well-" Bao Datong and Liu Tie argued, but Wan Li kept touching his ribs with his elbow, several times in a row.
"You may have another business coming to your door, and you don't want to check it out." Wanli didn't look at Bao Datong, but his eyes looked at the door.
Bao Datong looked suspiciously, and saw a woman standing stiffly outside the door.
It was raining tonight, but the woman did not come in, but stood outside the door and looked in, as if she had been standing for a long time. She was very thin, but she was wearing a black long coat and trousers on a hot day, and her long black hair was also drenched in the rain on her face, and the whole person seemed to blend with the night, leaving only a pale face and dark eyes, which looked a little scary.
"Rest assured, she's human." Bao Datong said to the other three people who were a little dazed, "I'll invite her in, let the woman stand in the rainy night, but I'm indifferent, it's too ungraceful!" β
He walked over and opened the door, feeling the rain coming down his face, wet and cold.
The woman in black shrank at his appearance, and before he could speak, she asked, "Bao Datong?" β
She spoke quietly, her lips moving only slightly, making the question seem like a dream from far away.
"I am."
"Help me." The woman stretched out her cold hand and grabbed Bao Datong's arm, "Please help me and help me get my husband back!" β
Bao Datong was stunned, "It's not me who is looking for someone-hey, forget it, you better come in first, okay?" He leaned over and invited the mysterious woman in black in.
The woman in black paused, as if hesitating about something, but finally stepped into the bar.
She walked with her head down, followed Wanli to a dim corner of the bar, and passively took a clean towel and a glass of mild wine from Wanli, which felt as dark and light as a shadow.
Although it was raining, it was summer after all, and there was no air conditioning in the bar, but this woman seemed to be very cold, shivering all the time, not only the hands that wiped her hair were shaking, but even the glass that her teeth were clattering when she was drinking.
Wan Li glanced at Bao Datong. He deliberately brought this woman to the corner to talk, this is a psychological characteristic of people, and he always feels that the dark corner is safer, and it is easier to confide in people here.
"Excuse meβ"
"I don't have that much money." The woman in black interrupted Bao Datong's questioning.
"It doesn't matter, this wine is for him to entertain guests, no charge." Wanli replied in a gentle tone.
"I meanβI can't afford to pay Mr. Bagβthat high commission." The woman in black still bowed her head.
For a moment, Wan Li didn't understand who 'Mr. Bao' was referring to, and was about to say that they didn't have any 'Mr. Bao' here, so they were in the wrong place. But when I looked up and saw Bao Datong shrugging his shoulders, I realized that this god who had never been serious turned out to be 'Mr. Bao'.
"It doesn't matter, his fees are more flexible." Wanli continued to say softly, "Can I ask Miss's name first?" β
"Lu Yan." The woman in black took another big sip of wine, as if to calm herself.
"Then Miss Lu, what are you looking for Mr. Bao?"
Lu Yan looked up at Bao Datong, but Bao Datong looked at Wan Li.
This woman is as fragile as a piece of black transparent glass, as if it shatters at the touch of it, no more than those profiteers who are upright on the surface and cunning inside, it doesn't matter how he tosses. He didn't want to say the wrong thing in front of a woman, and Wan Li was a psychiatrist and was even better at talking to people, so it was more appropriate for Wan Li to ask.
"I want Mr. Bao to help me find my husband." Lu Yan saw that Bao Datong meant to ask her to talk to Wanli, so she turned to Wanli.
"That's right, Mr. Bao - Mr. Bao's main business, although it looks more like a fortune teller, but in fact, it is still based on Zhouyi culture." Wan Li patiently explained, "If Miss Lu wants to find someone, I think it's better to find the police." Now the police have a network dedicated to finding missing persons, which is much more efficient than asking Mr. Bao to calculate the location. β
"No, you don't understand." When Lu Yan heard Wanli's meaning, there was a sense of refusal, and she anxiously explained, "Although my husband is dead, he hasn't left!" He's right next to me, I can feel it. I can really feel it! But he won't come out to see me! I just need Mr. Bao to help me find him out and let me see him, just one side! I have something very important to say to him! β
When Lu Yan said this, she suddenly became very excited, grabbed Wan Li's hand tightly, like grasping a life-saving straw, and cried bitterly and begged, "Please help me, I just need to see him, please." I can take out all the money and just have the living expenses of our mother and son left! β
Wanli and Bao Datong looked at each other.
Her husband is dead?! So did she want them to find a ghost? She also has a child! What's going on? Is it the hallucinations of a woman who has lost her husband due to excessive longing, followed by cranky thoughts, or is something strange happening?
