Chapter 113 Secluded Location

“This location is quite secluded.”

Zheng Qiang closed the car door and looked at the small courtyard in front of him with emotion.

Lawyer An also got out of the car, threw his cigarette butt on the ground, and stomped on it with the sole of his shoe. “It wouldn’t be so secluded if someone hadn’t died here.”

“You’re wrong about that. It’s too noisy when people don’t die; you only get a sense of things when they do,” Zheng Qiang retorted.

Zheng Qiang used honorifics to address Lawyer An.

The reason was simple.

Back when Lawyer An was helping Boss Zhou recruit lackeys, these few had been beaten up by him.

Lawyer An glanced at Zheng Qiang, thinking that this guy had positioned himself well, not really regarding himself as a living person. No wonder he was still just a minor ghost messenger.

This place was located in a rural area under Rugao, but it wasn’t considered remote. The rural areas around Tongcheng were very convenient for transportation. Most places were at most half an hour’s drive from the nearest county or city center.

And what stood before them now was a small courtyard. Compared to the old Beijing courtyards, it really seemed too miniature.

The front was a wall and an iron gate. The sides should be bedrooms, and the middle was a living room, essentially a traditional rural two-bedroom, one-living-room flat layout enclosed.

Lawyer An didn’t knock but signaled Crescent Moon next to him to open the door.

Crescent Moon spat out a silver needle from her mouth and quickly unlocked the lock on the iron gate. Pushing the door open, there were two fruit trees planted inside, but in this season, there was no green to be seen, just branches.

In the middle of the yard was a small pavilion, and next to the pavilion was a bathing pool, with stone tables and chairs built into the pool.

One could imagine how pleasant it would be in spring and summer, under the fruit trees, soaking in the hot spring pool, drinking tea, and listening to music.

In addition, the other furnishings and layout here were very exquisite and classical, reflecting the homeowner’s high aesthetic achievement.

“This little place is really nice,” Zheng Qiang praised. “To be honest, for ordinary living people, if there’s no pressure regarding school district housing or other aspects, living in a birdcage in the city is really not as comfortable as living in a house built by yourself in the countryside.

“Take this place, for example. If I lived here alone, I could call a couple of girls when I’m bored, soak in the bath together, and chat about life. Hehe, this little life would be so wonderful.”

“Do you think everyone else is like you? He’s not that kind of person.”

Lawyer An shook his head.

“That’s not certain.”

In the bedroom next door, Crescent Moon opened the sliding door and pointed to the clothes rack next to her, saying:

“Men, aren’t they all the same?”

The clothes rack was full of various erotic clothes, subdivided into many professions.

Lawyer An helplessly patted his forehead. He didn’t expect that the guy who was always so steady and ascetic would actually be playing so happily behind his back.

And he always liked to chat with himself about the perception of life. This guy was a scholar from the Republican era, not one of the famous ones, but he had hung out with that circle of famous people.

It seemed that old habits die hard.

In the bedroom on the other side, Liu Chuyu came out, shook his head, and indicated that there was no one inside.

The living room faced the gate and was all glass floor-to-ceiling windows. The situation inside could be seen at a glance from the courtyard.

“Isn’t he home?”

Zheng Qiang asked.

Lawyer An shook his head and said, “When you’re facing a life-threatening situation, where is safer than your own lair?”

As he spoke,

Lawyer An waved his cell phone,

“He sent me a text message before, saying that someone wanted to kill him.”

He received this text message in the evening. When Lawyer An called back, the phone couldn’t be reached.

As for driving here all the way, Lawyer An didn’t really have the hope of showing up in time to save the person. He just wanted to see what the nature of this matter was.

“Search, search carefully, check even the cracks in the door. I want to see him alive or dead!”

Crescent Moon and the other three ghost messengers nodded and began searching again.

Lawyer An walked to the pavilion and stood there.

It wasn’t that he wanted to be lazy,

But he instinctively felt that

This pavilion seemed a little different.

However, he stood inside and carefully observed it for a while, but he didn’t find anything special about it.

After about a quarter of an hour, Crescent Moon and the others came out. Obviously, they didn’t find anything.

“I even poked the toilet with a clothes rack, but nothing came out,” Zheng Qiang said.

Crescent Moon and Liu Chuyu also shook their heads. They also found nothing.

“What level of strength does your client have?” Zheng Qiang asked.

The strength of stowaways varies greatly. Some are no different from ordinary people, or even weaker and more sickly, while others are even stronger and more terrifying than ghost messengers.

Of course, the latter is a minority, and the former is the majority. After all, for many souls in hell, even lingering in the mortal world is far better than living in darkness in hell, and they are even willing to pay a great price for it.

Those who can have terrifying abilities after being possessed by stowaways are often anomalies among anomalies.

“Didn’t I just say, I saw that…”

Lawyer An pointed to the rows of various professional clothes hanging in the room over there,

“This guy gets so tired that he coughs up blood after talking for a little while. I really didn’t expect him to actually…”

“Enjoying life while you can,” Crescent Moon said indifferently.

Only those who have truly experienced the torment of hell can truly understand the meaning of “enjoying life while you can.”

Because they have realized that:

Death is no longer a relief or an end, but the beginning of a new round of torment.

“Alright, I don’t know where he died. Anyway, it’s not very peaceful these days. Don’t run around near the Late Night Bookstore (Shenye Shu Wu) usually.”

The collapse of the Yin Court order not only means that the ghost messengers, constables, and inspectors who originally depended on this order can obtain greater freedom, but it also means that “when the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact.”

As the group walked back, Lawyer An stopped again as he was about to leave, turned around, looked at the pavilion behind him, and pointed to it, saying to the three ghost messengers beside him:

“Do you think this pavilion is anything special?”

The three ghost messengers looked at the pavilion carefully together,

No one spoke.

After a while,

Crescent Moon frowned and said, “Other than looking a bit new, there’s nothing special about it.”

“New?”

Lawyer An was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, and immediately walked back to the pavilion, reaching out to touch the wooden pillars.

The red paint looked very new, and it was a little out of harmony with the surrounding environment.

Because judging from the exquisite nature of this courtyard, the drawings must have been repaired very well before construction, and it was unlikely that buildings would be added later.

Lawyer An put his hand on the pillar,

“Splat…”

So slippery!

Lawyer An suddenly looked up, put his hand on the pillar again, and began to rub it.

Zheng Qiang also reached out and imitated Lawyer An’s movements, touching another pillar, and exclaimed:

“What kind of wax is this? It’s smoother than a woman’s leg.”

Lawyer An retracted his hand, turned around, and put his thumb in his mouth to suck it.

Zheng Qiang also imitated this action, putting his finger in his mouth to suck it, and a rich fragrance immediately filled his mouth.

Very fragrant, very fragrant, but not greasy at all.

“What does it taste like?” Lawyer An asked Zheng Qiang.

“Very fragrant, the kind of taste that goes well with rice.”

Lawyer An put his finger back in his mouth and sucked it, and Zheng Qiang did the same.

After a while,

Lawyer An asked again:

“Is there any other taste?”

“No, what kind of wax is this?”

In Zheng Qiang’s opinion, it was a pity that the wax company didn’t change its business to make salad oil or braised chicken and rice.

“Huff…”

Lawyer An let out a long breath,

Then pointed to Liu Chuyu,

And then pointed to the top of his head,

Saying:

“You, go up and take a look.”

Liu Chuyu nodded and stepped back out of the pavilion without saying a word, then took a stride, grabbing with his hands and feet to climb to the top of the pavilion.

“With this skill, why not go to the circus?”

Zheng Qiang joked.

Lawyer An glanced at him, only feeling that he had misjudged this guy at the beginning, how could his IQ be so low?

Sigh,

At least he had Feng Si’er among his ghost messengers back then,

Boss’s subordinates…

It didn’t seem right either,

The figure of Feng Si’er first appeared in Lawyer An’s mind, and then the figure of the little loli appeared next to him, with the figure of the little boy holding her hand.

Feng Si’er and the little boy began to wrestle,

And then slowly,

Feng Si’er began to gain the upper hand.

Lawyer An smiled,

Feng Si’er was still excellent!

But soon,

The figure of Old Zhang appeared in Lawyer An’s mind again,

Feng Si’er was directly knocked away with one punch…

Huff…

Lawyer An admitted it,

Drawing a lottery out of five, three bronze,

A silver golden turtle son-in-law,

Plus a king,

It wouldn’t be considered a loss no matter how you calculated it, right?

“Damn it!”

Above the pavilion, Liu Chuyu’s exclamation came.

Lawyer An, Crescent Moon, and Zheng Qiang immediately walked out of the pavilion and looked up.

The design of the top of the pavilion was overhanging eaves, flying out on all sides, and because this was a flat courtyard, the central area of the top of the pavilion was a blind spot.

“What’s wrong?” Lawyer An asked.

Liu Chuyu took a deep breath,

Holding up a third of a human head with both hands,

Saying:

“There are clothes, socks, and shoes here, and this little bit of a human head.

“A human head?”

Lawyer An asked.

“Yes, it seems that the corpse has melted almost completely, leaving only this little bit.”

The corpse melted?

Smooth pillars?

Sweet?

Zheng Qiang suddenly felt a spasm in his stomach and almost couldn’t help but vomit, then looked at Lawyer An with a sad expression, wanting to get some consolation of “misery loves company” from Lawyer An.

He had actually just eaten… corpse oil!

“Why are you looking at me?”

Lawyer An looked at Zheng Qiang with some inexplicable disgust.

Ew, this person just ate that thing, stay away!

“Didn’t you also eat…”

Lawyer An shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said:

“Oh, I touched it with my left hand, and sucked on my right-hand fingers.”

“…” Zheng Qiang.
