C6 Private Detective Shocking the Devil!
Xu Lai drove the Bugatti Veyron home leisurely. After he was done with his duties, Xu Lai felt as if he had been freed.
"Host's information has been updated. Please check it."
The system notification rang. Xu Lai's mind moved and a message appeared in front of him.
Name: Xu Lai.
Age: 25.
Funds: 30,000
Current assets: 40 million Bugatti Weilong Silver Limited Version 1, Value: 5 million Patek Philippe Limited Version 1 watch.
Possesses Skills: Proficient in foreign languages, Eye of Truth.
Xu Lai looked at his information and nodded in satisfaction.
He did not have many thoughts at the moment. He just wanted to rush home as soon as possible and sleep comfortably.
Xu Lai's place of residence was located in the middle of a city in Loongkou City, in the golden district.
Previously, he had planned to rent a house with Zhao Ruoxi, but that woman actually rejected her because she did not want to live together before marriage. Now that he thought about it, it was somewhat laughable.
After parking the car and going around a few streets, Xu Lai quietly pushed open the door of the old rented house.
This house had three rooms and one hall, and there were three people living in it.
The rent for each person was three thousand a month. They shared the rent in this city just like that.
It was difficult and difficult.
As soon as he walked into the house, Xu Lai saw a burly middle-aged man standing in the living room, cursing.
"Lil 'Wang, how long has it been since you paid your rent? Are you f * cking asking for a beating? I see that you really don't want to be rough with you. I think you don't want to be beaten up either. "
Xu Lai saw Wang Dong was the one who scolded him. He was sitting on the sofa. The one who was silent was a young man who had lived here for many years. His name was Jiang Wei. He was a writer of novels. It was said that the age was not good. There were fewer and fewer people reading books, and the income from poor grades was not high. He probably owed a lot of rent.
"Alright, Brother Dong. This young man works overtime every day. It's not easy to earn money. Who hasn't memorized the words? He has been living here for so long."
It was time for Xu Lai to smooth things over. Wang Dong snorted coldly and stared at Xu Lai.
"Xu Lai, let me tell you, friendship is friendship. Money is money. If you can't pay the money, don't stay here anymore. Humph, don't do it until that time."
Wang Dong's words carried a trace of threat. Clearly, he didn't intend to give Xu Lai face at all.
"Brother Dong, the market is not looking good. Can you give us a few more days?"
Jiang Wei, who was sitting on the sofa, pursed his lips and muttered.
These words seemed to have exhausted Wang Dong's limited patience. A trace of anger flashed across his eyes as he said coldly, "I don't have that much time. Don't say that I won't give you a chance. If you agree to help me, I might even give you a few more days."
Wang Dong usually did some underground work in the dark and took on some hired work. How could Jiang Wei, a delicate and tender person, do this kind of work? When he heard Wang Dong's words, his whole body trembled, and he didn't dare to say anything.
At this moment, Xu Lai was also a little unhappy, and he frowned slightly.
"Wang Dong! Are you f * cking bullying Little Jiang again?"
At this moment, a loud shout came from outside the door. It sounded like a bell, and suddenly, it shocked Wang Dong.
He saw a strong man in a sports suit with muscles and hair. He rushed into the room like the wind and pointed at Wang Dong's nose.
"Wang Dong, are you f * cking asking for death? Little Jiang almost rented the house, didn't he? "Are you f * cking asking for it? Do you only know how to bully honest people? "
This man was 1.9 meters tall and had a fierce look in his eyes. His sudden action stunned Wang Dong.
His name was Ma Xudong, and he was also one of the three people in the team. He was a professional coach after graduating from the sports school. He was a reckless and innocent man who could fight for justice.
The moment Ma Xudong rushed in, Wang Dong wasn't the only one who was shocked. Xu Lai, whose eyes were filled with fear, was also shocked.
In his eyes, he was the only one who followed Ma Xudong into the house.
There was another thing!
A ghost with a hideous face and an extremely bent body was lying on Ma Xudong's shoulder. At this moment, its two claws were grabbing Ma Xudong's shoulder. Its empty and lusterless eyes were swaying back and forth, as if it was sizing up something.
When its head turned to Xu Lai, Xu Lai felt a chill run down his spine.
"System Notification: There are low-level devils in the vicinity. Ordinary vengeful souls are not very dangerous. These ordinary vengeful souls cannot ascend to heaven and will possess the bodies of the nearby humans. For a long time, the possessed humans will become thin and will eventually die from absorbing all the Yang energy."
"Congratulations, Host, for activating the Main Storyline Quest: Comfort the vengeful spirits and fulfill their long-cherished wish."
Listening to the system notification, a drop of cold sweat could not help but drip down Xu Lai's forehead. Absorbing all the Yang energy and dying was not considered dangerous at all.
Seeing that the two of them were about to fight, Xu Lai rushed forward and pulled them away. Then, he pushed and pulled Ma Xudong out of the room.
When the two of them came downstairs, Ma Xudong looked indignant.
"Xu Lai, why did you pull me out? That Wang Dong is someone who is soft and afraid of the hard. If I don't teach him a lesson today, he will think that we are all afraid of him!"
"Alright, alright. Don't argue with people like him."
Xu Lai laughed and placed his hand on Ma Xudong's shoulder.
From Xu Lai's perspective, his hand landed on the head of the vengeful spirit. At the same time, a weak message was transmitted into Xu Lai's body.
"I... want to go home."
This weak voice sounded like a message sent by a drowning man before his death.
This person's soul had already turned into a vengeful soul, which meant that he had died a long time ago. He wanted to go home?
Could it be that he wanted him to find his corpse?
Thinking back to the system notification, vengeful spirits were attached to the bodies of the nearby humans. In other words, they were attached to the bodies of the nearby humans. ...
"Ma Xudong, where did you go today?"
"What's wrong?"
Ma Xudong asked.
"Nothing, just asking."
Xu Lai did not plan to tell Ma Xudong about his situation. He might not believe it even if he told Ma Xudong, and it might lead to other troubles.
"Oh, I didn't go anywhere. I was used to running in the morning. I just circled around the sandy area a few times and didn't go anywhere else."
Xu Lai frowned. The area was not big, and it was usually a rundown building.
"Yes, that's right."
Xu Lai's eyes lit up. If the corpse of the vengeful spirit was really killed and abandoned, then his location must be in the dilapidated building. The area was overgrown with weeds, and it had been many years since anyone had walked past that place.
"Let's go, Ma Xudong. Take me to the unfinished building over there."
Xu Lai pulled the dumbfounded Ma Xudong and ran towards the unfinished building.
The closer they got to the unfinished building, the quieter the ghost lying behind Ma Xudong became. Xu Lai knew that the place they were looking for must be there.
"It should be here."
Xu Lai looked at the unfinished building in front of him and confirmed that it should be here. He took a step forward and rushed in. Ma Xudong had been following him all along.
While Xu Lai was searching the unfinished building, the noise in the corridor attracted his attention.
"What are you guys doing? "I'm a private detective. I'm responsible for investigating the disappearance of Chen Mingze from the Chen family in Loongkou City. Do you know what kind of consequences you will face if you do something like this? "
A group of burly men surrounded a woman. This woman did not seem to be an ordinary person. Despite being surrounded, she still dared to shout at these men.
"Hmph, little girl, do you know that there are some things that you cannot interfere with? The more you know, the closer you are to death!"
The group of strong men had fierce looks on their faces. Before Xu Lai could make a move, Ma Xudong, who had come with him, had already dashed forward. This guy was truly worthy of being a ruthless person who trained all year round. He defeated three of the strong men with just a few straight punches.
In just a few moves, the problem was solved. Xu Lai was stunned when he saw this.
This man was really reckless.
Xu Lai also walked over. The woman did not know whether Xu Lai and Xu Lai were friends or enemies. She quickly said, "I am a private detective, Lee Fei. I am now appointed by the Chen family of Loongkou City to investigate the disappearance of Chen Mingze. This is my name card. I did not trespass here."
As she spoke, she handed her business card.
Xu Lai looked at the business card. It was indeed a private detective.
However, what he needed to do now did not require such a woman, especially a private detective.
"Don't interfere in this case."
Xu Lai said calmly.
"How can that be? I am using money to help people out. The Chen family hired me to work for them, of course." Lee Fei did not react too strongly because she could not tell Xu Lai's identity.
"How much does the Chen family give you?"
Five hundred thousand."
Lee Fei said proudly. This amount of money was considered the best in their industry, especially for a young man who had just entered the industry for less than three years. It was not easy for him to achieve this.
This could be seen from the fact that she was able to find this unfinished building.
"Oh, this is for you. Don't interfere in this case."
Xu Lai casually untied his watch and threw it to Lee Fei. Then, without looking back, he walked inside with Ma Xudong.
"Hey, you. How much can your watch be worth?" Lee Fei took Xu Lai's watch and called out subconsciously. Then, when she carefully looked at the appearance of the watch and the real diamonds on it, she fell into silence.
"This is Patek Philippe, which is worth at least one million!"
Lee Fei, who was a high salary class now, naturally recognized the watch. She then looked at Xu Lai's back, which had already disappeared at the entrance of the building.
She gritted her teeth and decided to follow him.
