Shaoyun Township is more than 200 miles away from Pingling City, and it will take more than two hours on the bus or drive.

It’s past noon, and it’s probably not long after it arrives, it’s evening.

In a short while, Lu Li temporarily set to set off tomorrow morning. But just in case, he asked Chen Qian to go to the hardware store to buy a pair of chain locks and went to the underground passage in the afternoon.

The sewer railings of the faint and cool breeze remained the same, and the iron chains that were pried were discarded and ignored.

Lu Li locked the fence with the chain lock he bought to prevent any staff or idle people from getting into it recently.

Back at the detective agency, Chen Qian revealed the full information that Shaoyun Township and his party had found last time.

The real name of the water ghost, Liu Zhen, is from Shaoyun Township, and a senior high school student. He was playing with his classmates at the Chengxi Reservoir half a month ago, and then disappeared together. The next day, the parents found that they were wrong to call the police. The police searched the Chengxi Reservoir and found traces. Then the body was salvaged, but only four were found. Liu Zhen and a classmate's bodies have not been found yet.

It is worth mentioning that the Xishan Private High School where Liu Zhen is located went bankrupt in the next six months due to poor management and remote location, and the campus was abandoned.

Liu Zhen’s family has four people, whose parents are nearly fifty years old, and they are farming in their hometown. A brother works in building materials in Lin County. So although he lost his son in middle age, the family will not collapse because of this.

They even had a glimmer of hope - their son was not dead, but he just ran to other places with fun.

After all, the body has not been found yet.

There is nothing to prepare when going to the countryside. A Glock and a kitchen knife are all Lu Li’s equipment.

Chen Qian was trembling, praying that there would be no unopened country ghosts coming to cause trouble... This person is such a cruel person.

Yang Chunxue expressed her joy about being able to go out to relax, and made an appointment with Lu Li to let her go for a while.

Chen Qian was unable to sleep, and a day passed.

At nine o'clock the next morning, Lu Li and Shen Qian headed straight to the bus station and took the bus to Shaoyun Township.

The weather is a bit gloomy, and the sun is only left with a halo behind the clouds. The weather forecast says it is cloudy to overcast - for reference only.

When I got into the car, most of the passengers in the seats were dressed in plain clothes, carrying snakeskin bags blocking the aisle, and countless conversations were mixed together, making people dizzy.

Lu Li moved his slender legs, followed by Chen Qian who was struggling to squeeze through hard, and sat to the last row.

A few minutes before departure, Lu Li, who was by the window, closed his eyes and rested, while Chen Qianze was absent-minded.

He began to regret why he came up with this bad idea. Now, the two of them have embarked on the road of illegal crimes.

"We are a detective agency... Isn't it good to abide by the law... Boss, you are more rational, you are still young... It's not worth it or not, we can think of other ways... They are innocent... I don't want to kidnap people!"

Chen Qian muttered, saying that it was inevitable that the noise would be louder in the end. Fortunately, the car was noisy and no one noticed the strangeness in the end.

Lu Li looked out the window and took back his black eyes and fell on Shen Qian: "Did I say I want to kidnap them?"

"Eh? No, no?"

"Um."

"What, you should say it earlier. Why don't you say it earlier? Tell me earlier..." Chen Qian, who knew that he was embarrassed, used a chatterbox to relieve the embarrassment.

Lu Li narrowed his black eyes slightly: "If you can't shut your mouth, I'll help you."

"Okay, I won't say it anymore." Chen Qian complained, and then he couldn't change his shit and asked, "Then we won't tie up... and forcibly invite the other party to visit us, why are we going?"

“Now is not the time to say it”

At this moment, the bus vibrated slightly and the front door closed.

The driver who closed the car door shouted to the back row: "It's time to leave!"

The noise is quiet.

...

The scenery outside the window swept back quickly.

The tall buildings at the beginning were replaced by low and staggered houses, and were replaced by shady woods and green farmland.

The traces of human beings left on this land are gradually disappearing, but soon, a group of houses appear in front of the journey.

laugh--

The bus stopped, and several passengers got out of the car with bags, mixed with the smell of soil and planting into the car, shaking off the dull air.

"It's the next stop." Chen Qian's dizzy expression turned up and said in a low voice.

Lu Li looked out the window without saying a word.

He likes to sit quietly and not move.

Chen Qian once joked that he would definitely have Alzheimer's disease in the future, and he stopped saying such things after being deducted for a month's bonus.

The car drove, and the woods on both sides of the road retreated again. After more than twenty minutes, a large building complex finally appeared in front of the bus.

"Shaoyun Township is coming." The driver turned around and shouted.

He didn't need to say that most of the passengers in the car became restless, moving their bodies, and the noise dispersed.

Two minutes later, the bus stopped by the lane, and the passengers who had been waiting for a long time stood up and carried large and small bags to the bottom.

Lu Li looked at Chen Qian, and there was no sign of getting up.

"We still have a way." Chen Qian replied with a strange smile.

Lu Li nodded and looked out the window again.

The bus fell into vain in a flash, leaving only the last row of Lu Li and the other two. The driver took the time to look at the rearview mirror, muttered something, closed the car door and restarted.

The low-rise house window passed by and soon turned into woods and farmland again. After more than ten minutes, the bus stopped in front of a dirt road.

Wow—

The car door opens.

The driver didn't even say where this was.

"We're here." Chen Qian stood up and stretched his body.

Lu Li followed him out of the car, the door behind him slowly closed, and the bus turned around and left.

A yellow dog walked past the two of them.

The cement road is only built to the bottom of the foot, and further forward is an uneven dirt road, with scattered houses scattered on the edge of the dirt road to the foot of the mountain.

The green mountains are beautiful, with white clouds and large areas of farmland are full of green.

"This is Shanjiao Village, and it seems that there are only a few dozen households."

Chen Qian, who has been here once, led the way in front and introduced it to Lu Li.

The two of them came to a farmhouse. Chen Qian pushed the door and entered the hospital. The flock of chickens chuckled.

He went to the door of the house and shouted a few times, but no one answered. He was wonderingly seeing a diving man passing by and shouted quickly: "Old man, where is this family?"

The old man glanced at them and left without saying a word.

“Hey—”

Chen Qian was stunned for a long time, and embarrassedly pulled out a bench from the corner of the yard to sit down. He grabbed a handful of pumpkin seeds he had got from somewhere in his hand, and waved to Lu Li while knocking.

It seems that he did a good job last time.

Lu Li was about to walk towards Chen Qian, but suddenly his black eyes shrank, and he felt a little confused and turned around and looked outside the courtyard.

Outside the waist-length wooden railing, an old woman walked past the door tremblingly.

"boss?"

Chen Qian behind him found Lu Li's strangeness.

"Stay here and don't walk around, I'll go out and take a look." Lu Li's black eyes were deep, leaving a sentence to follow.

Chen Qian spitted out the melon seed skin with a puzzled look at Lu Li running out.

Obviously nothing.
