11. The third ghost

The old man grinned and smiled sinisterly: "I asked someone to buy it. My son was unfilial. He only saved a few thousand yuan in the past few years to pick up rags. He died before the flowers were still... Isn't it good to live well? I have to be kind to myself if I die?"

"The old man is open-minded." Lu Li praised him without hesitation.

A ghost dares to show up during the day, either a good person is brave or has a pitfall on his head.

"The young man doesn't seem to be afraid of me." The old man still stood by the round table in the middle of the hut with a faint smile, only a table separated from Lu Li.

"Yes." Lu Li responded and counted as an answer.

“No one has been here for a long time…”

The old man seemed very keen on pretending to be a ghost, leaning forward with this gloomy face, and his face suddenly became ferocious.

"Since you're here, stay!"

Bang.

Lu Li took out the Glock and placed it on the table.

The four round table with uneven legs swayed, and ripples rippled in the tea bowl.

"At least I'll have a cup of tea before leaving..." The old man shrank his neck, blinked his eyes, and added dryly.

People are afraid of guns.

People become ghosts, and they are afraid.

Lu Li didn't speak, just stared at the old man silently.

Invisible pressure appeared all over my body, and the old man's legs were trembling constantly, and he cried in fear: "Good man, please spare my life! I never thought of harming people! I didn't even want to harm others even if I hit me to death! I went to find them last night and didn't have to pay any compensation. They were scared and you can't blame me..."

The phone suddenly vibrated, and Lu Li raised his hand to signal the old man to silence and connect to the phone.

Shen Qian's voice came from the other side: "Boss, I found the information about Li Mei that you asked me to check..."

As Shen Qian told him, Lu Li frowned and replied: "I understand. Go back to the detective agency and wait for me. The key is in the old place."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Li looked at the old man again and said straight to the point: "You have been in the world for more than ten days and it's time to go to the place you should go."

The old man captured a trace of information from his words, and said in fear: "Are you..."

Lu Li did not answer the old man, and reached out and said, "I'll send you down now."

"I, I can go down by myself..." The old man who realized something refused repeatedly.

"no."

Lu Li refused at once, but who knew whether the cause and effect would be counted on him by then.

A few hesitations flashed across the old man's face: "Then... I'm so troublesome to my little brother."

"No trouble." Lu Li took out the Glock, opened the insurance, loaded it, and aimed at the old man's eyebrows, as smooth as it would have happened.

Bang!

The gunshot spread, trembling in the room, and the rising blue smoke instantly scattered.

The old man's figure suddenly became illusory, and a bullet was embedded in his eyebrows. He raised a hand and pointed it at Lu Li with difficulty.

Without saying a word, the old man's figure suddenly dissipated and disappeared without a trace. The bullet between the eyebrows fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

The afterglow of gunfire disappeared, and the cottage returned to silence.

Lu Li put away his gun, picked up the bullet shell landing on the ground, and was about to leave, but suddenly stopped in front of the photo.

On the incense table, the old man's black and white remains were faintly visible. The eyes seemed to come alive and stare at Lu Li.

Lu Li walked towards the incense table, picked up the remaining incense sticks, ignited them and inserted them into the incense burner without turning his head back.

...

Half an hour later, Lu Li returned to the detective agency. Shen Qian couldn't wait to come up and asked, "How are you doing there? Have you found a ghost?"

Lu Li nodded and counted as an answer.

"What should I do next? Continue to catch ghosts?" Shen Qian asked.

Lu Li continued to nod: "Her request is to capture three. I want to catch the last ghost and she will appear."

Chen Qian nodded suddenly, and then seemed to have thought of something and kept giggling.

After Lu Li asked, he smiled and said, "I was just a dead supporter who was worried about my livelihood the day before yesterday. But suddenly I found that my boss had become a civil servant in the underworld, and he followed him to kill a pen fairy... It's really unpredictable in the world."

This is Lu Li's first incident.

Waiting for Chen Qian to end his feelings, the two of them had a meal that was not lunch or dinner, so they went out in the evening.

This time they tried two other methods of seeing ghosts: between holding an umbrella indoors and bending over to look at their legs, which is useless.

Looking for it until four o'clock in the morning, Li Tianming had only a while left. Chen Qian said he couldn't hold on anymore and retreated home. Only Lu Li was left.

He wandered in the darkness before dawn like a ghost, wearing a black coat.

It's really hard to find...

Under the dim street lights, Lu Li looked at the empty street and thought silently.

Regarding why the three ghosts were solved, Li Mei’s original statement was to test and let Lu Li enter the state faster.

But Lu Li believes that it is her lazy teaching.

It was almost dawn, and Lu Li, who had returned in vain, no longer waited for the ghost and turned around and went home.

When he walked to the commercial street outside the family building community, he suddenly saw a figure that shouldn't have appeared at this time.

Li Mei.

By coincidence it seems like everything was agreed upon in advance.

She was not waiting for Lu Li, and she might not even know that there was a gaze in the distance looking at her.

This girl, who was in the status of a ghost mess, appeared on the street at 5 a.m. and then walked into an...Internet cafe.

Is there a ghost in the Internet cafe?

Lu Li's eyes were a little confused, and then replaced by Mingran.

He found himself in a misunderstanding.

Ghosts used to be humans, and they would not wander in the empty streets in the middle of the night. At least the few ghosts Lu Li has encountered so far will not.

Lu Li followed up and walked into the Internet cafe.

The Internet cafe was quiet late at night, and her eyes swept across the entire hall. Lu Li found Li Mei in a corner of the hall.

It turns out that he was thinking too much.

Li Mei wore headphones with her back to the door, grabbed the keyboard and mouse and outputted it. On the screen, the character she controlled rushed towards a giant white wolf with her mouth biting a big sword.

Li Mei was controlling the character to roll and avoid attacks, and suddenly she noticed a figure sitting down beside her.

There were only 20% or 30% of the Internet cafe customers. At this time, someone sat beside him. Li Mei frowned and glanced with disgust, turning into astonishment.

"Why are you here?" Li Mei asked subconsciously, and asked again without waiting for Lu Li to answer: "Have you caught a ghost?"

She moved away the earphones on her left so that she could hear Lu Li's voice.

"One is still missing."

"You are very brave~" Li Mei smiled and praised, and the next moment she disappeared, and she changed her face and said, "Why don't you continue to find ghosts to run away here!"

"In fact, I have found that ghost." Lu Li looked around. At this time, the customers were either sleeping or concentrating on playing games, and no one paid attention to this place.

Li Mei noticed a strange thing, rolled over and avoided the attack of the white wolf, turned her head and looked at Lu Li in a strange way: "Are you okay?"

"In fact, I do have a question, I hope you can answer me."

"Hmm~" Li Mei raised her head proudly, revealing a piece of her white and tender neck. "Since you asked sincerely, I will answer you with mercy."

Lu Li sorted out his words, and the ancient well-like black eyes stared at Li Mei deeply.
