Chapter 345 As Smooth as a Script
Lawyer An's car was parked on the road next to the intersection. He himself was sitting on the trunk, holding a cigarette. At this hour, except for the occasional car passing by, it was basically quiet.
Lawyer An didn't see even a wild cat, let alone Old Zhang's soul.
Flicking the ash, Lawyer An picked up his phone again and dialed Zhou Ze. He had called several times before, but it always said that he was not in the service area.
This time, the phone finally connected, and the ringtone also came from not far away.
Lawyer An looked up and saw Zhou Ze first. Before he could complain about why Zhou Ze was so slow, he saw the woman behind Zhou Ze, and his expression immediately sank.
Zhou Ze and the woman walked over. Zhou Ze didn't speak, but the woman spoke first:
"Let's get this over with quickly, don't waste time."
Lawyer An looked at Zhou Ze with some doubts.
Zhou Ze shook his head, indicating that it was inconvenient to explain now.
Lawyer An glanced at the woman again, jumped off the trunk, and opened it. Inside was the body of a middle-aged man.
"The runes of the Corpse Driving Sect."
The woman looked at the corpse below and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Fresh corpses are too inconvenient to store. Even pure freezing is not the best way. The Corpse Driving Sect, to put it bluntly, is essentially the same as those vendors who transport fruits and seafood.
If you transport spoiled seafood or rotten fruit, who are you going to sell it to?
Therefore, the Corpse Driving Sect has its own method of preserving corpses.
As for the more advanced methods, they use secret techniques to ensure that the corpse can always be kept in a state where it can be driven and commanded.
Naturally, it is also a state where a ghost can possess it at any time. Lawyer An has been in this business for many years, and he is naturally clear about the ins and outs.
Zhou Ze took out Old Zhang's soul.
The woman behind him licked her lips, seeming very coveted, even though she had already eaten three, she was still not full.
Next,
Zhou Ze used his fingernails to control Old Zhang's soul and press it into the corpse.
Old Zhang's soul clearly showed a rejection reaction and couldn't merge in at all. Moreover, it had been a long time since Old Zhang's death and his soul had left his body. If this continued, either Zhou Ze would let him go to hell, or his soul would be scattered.
Zhou Ze hardened his heart and directly pressed his soul in. However, even though the soul went in, it was still running around inside, and after losing Zhou Ze's suppression, it could run out at any time.
"Your fingernails are quite interesting."
The woman looked at Zhou Ze's fingernails, showing a hint of playfulness.
Zhou Ze ignored the woman and looked at Lawyer An, asking:
"What to do?"
Failed to merge, failed to return the soul to the body, what to do?
Lawyer An was stunned.
How would I know what to do?
Didn't the story say that he would float over and enter the body to be resurrected?
You brought his soul here now, which is completely different from the script in the story.
Moreover, what Lawyer An had received in the past were all evil spirits that had been tortured and tempered in hell. Their soul strength and soul quality were simply not comparable to these ordinary souls who had just died.
If every ordinary soul could return to the body, wouldn't this world be in chaos long ago?
"So verbose."
The woman reached out,
And formed a seal on the corpse's chest,
A bright red mark instantly fell down and hit the chest.
The soul that was originally running around finally calmed down, like it was asleep.
"Where's the ghost officer's certificate?"
The woman asked.
"Huh?" Zhou Ze was stunned.
"His soul strength is too weak, he needs the ghost officer's certificate to suppress it. Don't tell me, you plan to smuggle him in without preparing a ghost officer's certificate, then there's no way."
"Yes, yes."
Lawyer An took out a ghost officer's certificate, which Zhou Ze had given him during the day.
Immediately afterwards,
Lawyer An used his index finger to touch the center of the corpse's eyebrows and took out a drop of black blood. This was soul blood, not corpse blood. However, this black blood looked particularly loose, which also meant that the soul in the body was now very weak.
He dripped the blood on the ghost officer's certificate, and Lawyer An put the ghost officer's certificate into the corpse's hand to let it hold. After taking a few steps back, Lawyer An nodded to Zhou Ze.
"If her seal is useful, he may be able to wake up on his own after a while."
"Okay, drive the car back and take him back too. There aren't many rooms on the second floor of the bookstore, so you can live in the same room with him for a while, so you can take care of him." Zhou Ze said.
"............" Lawyer An.
"Can we go?" The woman asked.
"Where are you going?" Lawyer An asked.
"Accompany her to do something. She came from the Naihe Bridge."
"No need to introduce, I know this one in front of me." The woman looked at Lawyer An. "In the past, our Naihe Bridge also had business dealings with him. Am I right?"
Lawyer An was silent. His identity was a bit awkward. He was actually not suitable for seeing officials, even if they were his former clients.
He also knew that in the eyes of those clients in the underworld, An Buqi was just a mixed-up gangster in the yang world, not worthy of being on the stage.
"Then be careful yourself." Lawyer An reminded Zhou Ze, then got into the car, started it, and left.
After driving out, Lawyer An specially looked at the scene of Zhou Ze and the woman standing together through the rearview mirror.
"Can we go?"
The woman continued to ask.
Zhou Ze nodded, took out his mobile phone, and called for a DiDi.
Although it was so late, someone still accepted the order after sending a red envelope. More than ten minutes later, a black car stopped at the intersection.
Zhou Ze and the woman walked over together.
"What? Go to Tongcheng Prison? Are you out of your minds, going to that place so late at night? No, no, I won't take this order, you cancel it. Who am I going to pick up back there?"
The driver seemed to have just noticed the destination and was surprised and ready to give up the order.
However,
The woman's hand was placed directly on the driver's face,
The driver was stunned,
Then he slumped down in a daze.
The woman opened the car door, dragged the driver out, and the driver lying on the side of the road still had an expression of enjoyment on his face, as if he was having a beautiful dream, extremely intoxicated.
"Can you drive?" The woman looked at Zhou Ze, "If you can drive, then drive."
After speaking, the woman sat in the passenger seat.
Zhou Ze also got in and started the car.
Along the way, the two people in the car didn't communicate for a long time, which seemed very peaceful.
Finally, the woman spoke first and asked, "Aren't you afraid of me at all?"
"Afraid, very afraid."
The woman frowned, "If I tell you what you did before when I go back, or report it to the higher-ups, you will have a lot of trouble. This is a taboo thing, destroying the order established by the Yin Si."
"Yes, so I'm very scared."
"But you can rest assured, water that is too clear has no fish. In fact, the Yin Si doesn't care much about you lowest-level ghost officers. You are just consumables. Relying on merit points, some people can sell their lives, which is the best thing."
"Yes, so I'm very afraid."
"He, is he really in there? Living in, the prison?"
"I made an agreement with you. You helped my friend return the soul to the body, and I will help you find the pen you want. I won't break my promise."
"I hope you won't break your promise, but it's also considered very lucky, so lucky that it's like a script arranged in a story.
I thought it would take me a long time to find him this time, but I ran into you directly, and you even know his existence and whereabouts.
It's really,
A bit too smooth."
"Smooth, isn't that good?" Zhou Ze looked at the woman while lighting a cigarette.
"Smooth, of course it's good, if it's really smooth."
After saying this, the woman stopped talking, and the car fell into an eerie silence again.
But the woman would occasionally glance at Zhou Ze's steering wheel,
To be precise,
She was looking at Zhou Ze's fingers.
Many ghost officers, and even some ghost creatures in the underworld, have their own special abilities, but the woman felt that these fingernails were a bit extraordinary.
The car finally drove to the outside of the prison, and Zhou Ze stopped the car.
"According to the rules, you have to make an appointment to visit during the day to get in," Zhou Ze reminded.
"I'm a person from the underworld, so there's no need to follow the rules of the yang world."
The woman pushed open the car door, got out of the car, and walked forward directly, disappearing into the darkness ahead.
She walked very freely and decisively, even a little lightly, almost jumping up.
Completing the task as quickly as possible and then going down to report is a very glorious thing.
Although the Naihe Bridge doesn't have ghost officer's certificates, everyone is essentially the same, and they all need to do things to reflect their value and gain recognition.
Zhou Ze put his hand out of the window,
Flicked the cigarette ash,
Tonight's events,
He felt a little too smooth.
The appearance of that ghost falcon,
The appearance of this woman,
Old Zhang's soul was finally successfully sent into a body,
The woman said she wanted to find a pen,
Zhou Ze said he knew,
The woman exchanged helping Zhou Ze's friend return the soul to the body, and asked Zhou Ze to take her to find the pen.
Really,
Too smooth,
And,
Too coincidental.
Right now,
The woman's figure was already gone.
Zhou Ze exhaled a smoke ring,
Pulled down the sun visor and opened the mirror inside.
In the mirror,
Was also Zhou Ze.
"She went, can she come back?"
Zhou Ze asked.
The Zhou Ze in the mirror didn't move, and didn't have any special reaction.
Zhou Ze smiled,
One hand continued to rest on the car window,
Threw the cigarette butt on the ground,
Yawned,
"If she can come out, I can't let her go down again, can I?
She is a person from the Yin world, so there is no need to follow the rules of the Yang world;
Then since I am in the Yang world, I don't need to follow the rules of the Yin world."
