Otherworldly Merchant
Chapter 1467: Haunted Souls
Lori is very talkative and knows more about China's history than I do. Probably had a bad appetite for long trips, she only took a few small bites and put down her chopsticks: “Although I was born abroad, I was actually surrounded by Chinese people, because everyone lived abroad, so I felt deeply for my country! I've heard them talk about China's history since I was a kid, and I think our country is great. ”
Li Mazi nodded: “Of course, don't go too busy this time back. Uncle will show you around to see ancient Chinese architecture, that's what shocks you. ”
Lori nodded softly.
Li Mazi added: “Uncle will take you to the hotel later, you can choose a five-star hotel, uncle is not bad money. ”
Lori shook her head: "Uncle Lee, before I got back this time, Dad Bitter told me not to bother you too much, so I booked a house over the internet when I was getting ready, because I was going to stay here for about a month and staying at the hotel was neither affordable nor cumbersome. I'll give you the address later, you and the driver's brother can send me there. ”
It was a surprise for Li Mazi, but he had to pretend to look embarrassed: “Your father, too, what's his relationship to me, and so on, I'm the host here, how can you not let me entertain him? But since you've rented the house, I don't care. If you need anything, you have to let me know, otherwise my uncle will be angry. ”
Lori smiled and promised: "Thank you uncle Lee. ”
After the meal, Li Mazi went to the checkout. When she came back, she looked pale and knew how much she had eaten for the meal. I laughed for a moment and drove her to the rental house according to the address Lori gave me.
The house is situated in the old town, not very eye-catching, but looks good.
In order to show his nobility, Li Mazi had to vomit. What sanitary conditions were bad and security conditions were unknown... Lori had to comfort him first, then tired of dealing with them, so she simply shut her mouth. Intermediary company personnel have been waiting at the door of the unit due to advance appointments.
She accidentally introduced us to how wonderful the house was, sending us to the elevator. Generally speaking, I never believed in the mouths of these people, but I always thought they could describe what they didn't have for a single business, and smallpox crashes all the way down. But when she opened the door and invited us into the house, I didn't think she said anything about the benefits of the house.
Although the house has only a small one-bedroom and one hall, the decor style is very simple and elegant, the details are all over the mind of the former owner, the details are subtle and full of warmth, especially suitable for girls.
Lori wasn't very concerned about the house, she was very happy to sign a contract with an agent and paid for it. The staff gave her the keys and left.
Rory crossed the Pacific Ocean, flying too long, must be exhausted, Li Mazi and I didn't bother much, told her to lock the door and other safety tips, and said goodbye happily.
On the way home, Li Mazi kept showing off to me: “What do you say? Brother, how was my performance? It's not exactly like that. ”
I parked the car on the side of the road, then opened the door and threw him down: “As the best male partner, I'll be here with you, and the rest of the way is up to you. ”
After that, I drove away again, leaving Li Mazi standing silly on the side of the road.
The acting was already very tiring, not to mention playing with Li Mazi. I was tired of sore back and missed my warm bed. Little rain came back on the way back, and the rain drops patted on the windows, accompanied by music played in the car, reminded me of a lot of the old days. Parking the car, I suddenly saw a middle-aged woman wandering in front of my shop.
She did not parachute, although the rain was not heavy, but because of the long wait, she was wet, as if a water ghost had just climbed up from the bottom of the river.
I looked at her slightly, and I couldn't help but stop.
It seemed to hear a little noise, the middle-aged woman raised her head, a pair of extraordinarily atheistic eyes staring at me between the damp hairs, with a few uncomfortable expectations.
When she saw me, she rushed over. She knelt at my feet without thinking. She grabbed my pants and legs tightly. “Are you Master Zhang Jiulin Zhang? Please help my daughter...”
She cried as she said she was suppressed.
"What happened to your daughter, madam? It's hard for me to help you if you don't tell the truth and suddenly kneel in front of me like this. ”
The middle-aged woman burst into tears and cried: “My daughter is in a coma and has been to the hospital all over, but nothing has been found out. The doctor says her physical characteristics are very obvious, it doesn't look like a sick state, from a medical point of view, she can't detect any problems. I later hired a watchman, he only took a look and said that my daughter's soul had been snatched away by ghosts. To save her, she had to get her soul back first. ”
I frowned and thought it was something special, so I asked her to come in: "This is not a place to talk, you come in with me. ”
After I took her to the study, I found her a dry towel and deliberately made a pot of hot tea. After a middle-aged woman had two sips of water, she continued to tell me: “I wanted to save my daughter with all my heart, of course, but this gentleman told me that he had limited talent. If I wanted to save my daughter, I had to find someone tall! He recommended you to me, and I rushed over with the address. ”
I've had a lot of reputation in the shady world over the years, and there's been a lot of admiration, and even the old owner told me about acquaintances, so I didn't really think about it, and I nodded, "When did your daughter get into a coma? Did something strange happen before the coma? ”
The middle-aged woman blamed herself: “Yes, my name is Ma Yue, I am the manager of a second-hand car store, and after divorce from my ex-husband, I have to spend more time with my daughter alone. In order to give her the best life, I have to work harder than others, so overtime is a regular thing. Last Friday, my daughter came to the car store after kindergarten, because there was an accident in a car that had been sold before, I had to talk to the buyer to discuss a solution with the car shop repair staff, until late at night, when I finally relaxed, I suddenly found my daughter missing...”
