If Wu Weiran had thought about it carefully, he should have realized that there was no such thing as gold jewelry.

He has been unemployed for these years, and his family of five all rely on the little income from his wife's stall to survive.

Later, his wife was too pregnant to go out to set up a stall, and even the money for prenatal checkups had to be borrowed from her parents' home.

She had sold those gold jewelry long ago as she was in despair day after day.

"Yueyue, think about it carefully. Where exactly is the jewelry box?"

Wu Weiran shook Wu Yue's small body and found that she had completely fainted. He slapped himself in annoyance and regretted giving her a large dose of sleeping pills in order to kill Wu Yue.

There was no other way, he could only rush out and take Wu Donglai and Wang Jingfen with him to look for it.

His attic is not very big, and the only things that can hold the jewelry box are a few old pieces of furniture, so it must not be difficult to find.

When Wu Donglai and Wang Jingfen heard that there were jewelry, they followed Wu Donglai and Wang Jingfen to the attic without caring that the gas in the kitchen was still leaking.

After the three figures disappeared in the living room, Wu Yue in the kitchen immediately got up and ran out.

Before going out, she considerately closed the door which had been open.

In the attic, the three men searched through almost all the old furniture. Wu Weiran, who was the most impatient, smashed an iron cookie box full of needles and thread on the ground and said.

"Damn bitch, you hid it so deeply?"

Wang Jingfen didn't care that the attic hadn't been cleaned for years. She sat on the floor and pounded her waist: "I think this damn girl is lying. We have searched everywhere, but there is no jewelry box."

Wu Weiran opened the drawer that he had looked through four or five times before, trying to find the box he had missed.

"That shouldn't be the case. How dare Yueyue lie? She must still be there. Let's look for her quickly."

The two did not notice that the third person in the attic, Wu Donglai, was holding the wall with one hand and covering his heart with the other.

He wanted to speak, but the corners of his mouth twitched, and when he opened his mouth, white foam came out all at once.

"Oh!"

Perhaps his body could no longer hold on, and Wu Donglai fell backwards uncontrollably, hitting the ground heavily.

Wu Weiran and Wang Jingfen were shocked and realized something was wrong.

"Old man, what's wrong with you?"

Wang Jingfen was about to walk over when she found herself dizzy and her feet felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't move.

Wu Weiran shook his head and looked down at his watch, only to realize that they had been in the attic for nearly 40 minutes.

"Dad, Mom, please bear with it for a moment. I'll go downstairs and open the window first!"

At this moment, Wu Weiran didn't even dare to go forward to check on his parents, for fear that he would be too late and would die in there.

But he obviously didn't realize how high the carbon monoxide concentration was in the living room.

As soon as he stepped out of the attic and stepped onto the stairs leading downstairs, he fell heavily to the ground and lost consciousness.

It was the kind neighbor lady who called the police.

She had just returned home from get off work when she smelled a strong smell of gas in the corridor. Worried about Wu Yue, she called the police in desperation.

Soon, the 120 emergency medical team carried Wu Weiran and other two out of the house.

Due to inhaling too much carbon monoxide, the three were diagnosed dead before they could be sent to the hospital.

The police later found Wu Yue under a tree in a nearby park.

Wu Yue also told the truth about what happened today.

The case was quickly closed. Wu Weiran, Wu Donglai and Wang Jingfen suffered the consequences of their own actions. They failed to harm others and ended up hurting themselves.

Surprisingly, when Wu Weiran bought insurance for Wu Yue, he thought that Wu Donglai and Wang Jingfen were old, so he bought insurance for them as well, so that if they encountered an accident, he, as a son, could also benefit.

In the end, the money did not fall into his hands, but into Wu Yue's hands. This was the only blessing in this misfortune.

On the other side, Ji Chu hurriedly went off the air after calculating the divination.

Although she was not afraid of thunder at all, she didn't want to be struck by it when she had done nothing wrong.

To this end, she summoned her true body and put a cover on herself that could hide her breath.

Of course, such behavior can only be regarded as a temporary solution. Before long, she will be found by the Heavenly Dao.

But if she could kill Abe Kohei before that, she would be able to sleep peacefully even if she was chopped back to her original form.

A few days later, the person who was released by Ji Chu replied with the pen of the arrogant brother-in-law Wei Bao. That night, Ji Chu followed the clues to an office building.

There were only two security guards on the first floor of the office building. Because there were more than a dozen companies in the entire building, the security guards did not stop Ji Chu. They just simply registered him and let him in.

There were not many people coming to the office building at night. Most of them were workers working overtime, coming out of the elevator one after another with tired faces.

After everyone in the elevator had left, Ji Chu entered the elevator wearing a black mask. As soon as he pressed the close door button, a boy also wearing a black mask walked in. Judging from his features, he was about fifteen or sixteen years old.

After coming in, he saw the 17th floor that Ji Chu had pressed earlier, and his expression darkened for a moment.

In the small elevator room, the two of them were in tacit silence.

Soon, the elevator stopped at the 17th floor, and the moment the door opened, the boy ran out first.

Ji Chu didn't think much about it and walked out immediately.

Since it was night, not many companies were working overtime, so it was dark outside and the lights would only come on after voice control.

Before Ji Chu walked, he relied on floating. Even now that he has a mortal body, he walks like a cat, making very little noise.

The darkness around her did not cause any trouble to Ji Chu. On the contrary, she enjoyed the dark environment, just like her working environment in the underworld.

After turning a few corners, she finally saw her destination. Just as she was about to go forward to observe, a hand reached out from the darkness. However, before the person could touch Ji Chu, she turned her hand and pressed him against the wall.

"Young man, we have no grudges against each other, what do you mean?"

Ji Chu recognized that this man was the boy who had just gone upstairs with him.

The boy seemed very angry, but his struggle seemed a little unnecessary compared to Ji Chu's.

"It must be you, a bad woman, who seduced my father and made him stay away from home all day!"

Ji Chu tilted his neck: "Huh?"

The boy continued, "How else can you explain coming to my dad's company so late at night, wearing a mask? You must be feeling guilty and afraid of being caught by surveillance cameras!"

The wronged Ji Chu pulled off the boy's mask and carefully scanned his face and his future. With just one glance, her beautiful eyebrows unconsciously frowned.

"Young man, your time is coming?"
