Chapter 168: Haunted Incident
Chapter 168 Haunted Incident.
The stench is mixed with the dampness caused by yesterday's rain.
Hua Lang and Yin Wuxian walked through the alleys, and finally stopped in front of a dilapidated door, which was locked, and the mottled walls lined with wooden doors, like memories of the past.
Unlocking the lock is not a difficult task for Hua Lang, a private detective, he has never shown this skill in front of Wen Meng and Yin Wuxian before, so when he opened the lock, Wen Meng asked with some surprise: "You shouldn't have been a thief before, right?" ”
Of course, this is a joke, so after Hwarang laughed, it was over.
The courtyard was very small and narrow, and it was dilapidated and dirty, and they walked through the courtyard to the room, and searched it carefully, but found nothing, and the place did not look like it would be haunted, so why did the mother and son say that they had seen a ghost?
Wen Meng found nothing, so he looked at Hua Lang and smiled: "I just said it, the mother and son have a problem with their brains, so they say that there are ghosts." ”
At this time, Yin Wuxian and Hua Wan'er also agreed with Wen Meng's statement, but Hua Lang ignored them, and came to search outside the house, just when Wen Meng and Yin Wuxian were about to laugh at Hua Lang, Hua Lang suddenly said with some excitement: "I found it." ”
When they heard Hua Lang's words, they hurriedly rushed over, only to see Hua Lang holding some white powder in his hand, but it was very little, if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see what was in his hand at all, everyone saw those white powders, it was very strange, and at this time, Wen Meng smiled: "You shouldn't be saying that there is something wrong with these powders, right?" ”
Hua Lang smiled faintly and nodded: "Don't say it, these white powders are really problematic, and there is a big problem." ”
Saying that, Hua Lang led a few of them into the room again, because the room was dark after all, so after entering the room, they immediately found that the powder in Hua Lang's hand was really problematic, and those powder were shining in the room, which made people feel so novel.
Hua Lang glanced at a few of them and said: "This kind of thing is called white phosphorus, it is a kind of thing that is easy to spontaneously combust, and when it is applied to the hands at night, the hands will glow, and the ghost fire that the ignorant people in the cemetery say is caused by the burning of this thing, so I think that the ghost that the mother and son saw is not a real ghost, but someone pretended to be a ghost to scare them, applied it to their bodies with white phosphorus, and lay on the window, and the night is getting deeper, like a ghost who is glowing all over." ”
Hua Lang said quietly, Wen Meng and Hua Wan'er After hearing it, they felt a chill in their backs and cold all over their bodies.
At this time, Hua Lang suddenly smiled and said, "Miss Wen, do you still have any questions now?" ”
Wen Meng was a little angry, but her appearance at this time was even more lovely, Hua Lang smiled slightly, and said, "Let's go, do business, and find Tang Wang." ”
"You, you just remembered to get down to business at this time, but now that I'm interested in the haunted things here, what should I do?" Wen Meng seemed to deliberately want to make trouble with Hualang, but he didn't leave at this time.
Seeing this, Hua Lang said helplessly: "It's okay for Miss Wen to be interested at this time, but now the mother and son have a problem with their brains, and we can't ask them anything, so if we want to figure out this matter, we can squat here at night, and wait for the person who is pretending to be a ghost to come, now, let's go and find out the news of Tang Wang." ”
Although Wen Meng wanted to embarrass Hualang, she was not an unreasonable person, and now she was down to business, so she didn't insist anymore.
When they came to the street of Wuyi Lane, they still inquired about Tang Wang's whereabouts to see if anyone had seen him, but the result was the same as what they had inquired before, no one had ever seen Tang Wang.
After inquiring until noon, Yin Wuxian asked with some suspicion: "Has this Tang Wang never been to Wuyi Lane, if he has been, why haven't we even met a person who has seen him?" ”
At this time, Hua Lang also agreed a little that Yin was not wrong, a person said that he wanted to come here to play, but when he saw the dilapidated here and smelled the stench here, would he still want to play, I am afraid that he has not come in, so he hurriedly left here with his little servant.
In this case, they could only wait for the news from the Huainan Yin family.
The news came quickly, and while they were having lunch, the news came.
Yin Wuxian hurriedly opened the envelope, but after reading the letter, he was a little dumbfounded, Hua Lang took the letter and looked at it, and found that the letter said that they had found out the news, Tang Wang entered Wuyi Lane, but he never came out.
In this way, Tang Wang is still in Wuyi Lane.
But why hasn't anyone in Wuyi Lane seen him?
Maybe it was because people didn't notice Tang Wang at the time, or maybe the two of them were inconspicuous, so someone wouldn't remember them when they saw them?
Thinking like this, Hua Lang and the others decided to finish lunch and go to Wuyi Lane to check.
After coming to Wuyi Lane again, the scene here is very different from when I came in the morning, Wuyi Lane at this time is a little quiet, all you can see are some old and weak, sick and beggars, and the young and strong people seem to have suddenly disappeared.
This made Hua Lang a little strange, so they asked an old woman, and after the old woman listened to Hua Lang's question, her face suddenly overflowed with a smile, and said: "Qinhuai Wharf has something to do now, and the young and strong people in Wuyi Lane have gone to work, otherwise how can they support their own home." ”
It turned out that he went to work, and there was nothing wrong with it, but no matter what happened, Hanarang liked to inquire clearly, so he continued to ask, "Do they only go in the afternoon?" ”
The old woman nodded: "I only went in the afternoon, I have been working for many days, and I can earn dozens of dollars a day." ”
The woman's face was full of smiles, and dozens of dollars a day had filled their lives with hope, and Hanarang looked at them with a little emotion in his heart, if people were content, they would be happy.
Just before Hanarang was about to leave, he asked another question.
"And who is the job for the young and strong people here?"
The woman thought for a moment and said, "It's a middle-aged man, slightly fat, looks quite rich, at first he said to work for half a day to give fifty yuan, we still didn't believe it, but a few people still followed, and when they came back in the evening, they really got back fifty yuan, so that the young and strong young men here all went." ”
The matter has been asked clearly, but after asking this, Hua Lang's brows furrowed even tighter, Wen Meng and Yin Wuxian They felt very strange when they saw this, they didn't hear anything wrong from these words, why did Hua Lang frown?
