You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?

Su Chen did not go back to the village with A Liang, but went into the ghost road and went to the municipal bureau.

Director Zhou’s office was lit.

"Grandmaster?"

"Why are you here?"

It was Zhang Ming who discovered him.

This guy had dark circles under his eyes, but his eyes were full of excitement.

Zhang Ming led Su Chen to Director Zhou's office and lowered his voice: "Master, we have collected hundreds of possible abnormal locations throughout the province, and we are waiting to discuss with you after the New Year to investigate."

"After all of this has been thoroughly investigated, the number of special cases in our province will surely be significantly reduced. By the way, Master, we conducted a comprehensive investigation of Cuicheng before the Lunar New Year and uncovered a dozen suspected spies. How about we go and take a look and confirm it?"

Su Chen shook his head: "No need."

Zhang Ming nodded in understanding: "I see, I see. You have a lot to do. We even participated in the operation last night..."

"I heard the operation was very successful. They successfully eliminated the human trafficking organization that had been entrenched in our Cuicheng for over a decade, and also seized a lot of dangerous items..."

Arriving at the office door, Zhang Ming raised his hand and knocked lightly.

"Enter!"

When the door was opened, there was more than just Director Zhou inside.

"Doctor Zheng." Zhang Ming greeted.

Zheng Heng turned sideways and saw Su Chen raised his eyebrows: "Oh, we meet again."

Zhang Ming pulled out a chair and wanted Su Chen to sit down.

Su Chen waved his hand.

"Director Zhou, I have something to tell you."

After briefly explaining Ah Zheng's situation to Director Zhou, Su Chen said, "In the footage, I saw that the man who bought Ah Zheng couldn't speak fluent Mandarin. He must be from abroad. I suspect there's an organization that specifically targets special people..."

Zhang Ming and Director Zhou were both a little stunned.

Zheng Heng curled his lips: "Don't doubt it, it has been there for a long time."

Seeing everyone's eyes on him, Zheng Heng raised an eyebrow. "Isn't this obvious? Our country is vast and rich in resources. Not only these talented people, but even aged medicinal herbs and rare antiques are being plundered."

“I don’t know how much has been smuggled out over the years.”

"It's not just talented people, they want ordinary people too. I have a senior brother who works in a laboratory abroad who specializes in studying ordinary people. Anyway, there are so many people who have sneaked in, and no one would know if they disappeared."

Director Zhou and Zhang Ming both looked unhappy.

Su Chen's expression was calm: "Those who smuggled out made their own choices, and they can't blame anyone. It's different from those who live a law-abiding life and are targeted."

"Yes, yes, that's right." Director Zhou smiled and assured Su Chen that he would immediately send people to Lingtou Town to keep an eye on A Zheng and make sure he would not be taken away.

Zhang Ming volunteered: "Director Zhou, I'll go."

"I hope to pull out the carrots and the mud, and catch them all in one fell swoop."

Su Chen nodded slowly and walked into the ghost path.

Zheng Heng's pupils suddenly shrank, and then he sighed quickly: "This kind of magic is magical no matter how you look at it..."

It’s no wonder that the news about the Exorcism Team has spread everywhere now, saying that Su Chen’s ability is definitely better than that of the team leaders in each district, and he can even be on par with some old monsters.

When Su Chen returned home, Liu Chunhua had already prepared dinner.

The one fighting with Lao Tan on the chessboard has become Wang Haitao, and Old Man Su gives some pointers from time to time.

Su Chen couldn't bear to watch the bad chess players gathered together, so he simply held little Ayun and watched the children playing marbles in the yard.

Everyone has a few marbles, so they dig a hole in the ground. Whoever gets the marble into the hole first wins.

Honghong, Apeng and Acai were all having a great time. As for Yueyue, she was holding a small basket and fiddling with the beads and buttons of various sizes inside. Without exception, all of them were either shiny or crystal clear.

Su Chen dug it out and found some quartz crystal clusters inside. Curiously, "Yueyue, where did you get all this?"

The little guy was proud: "I found it, I found it by the stream."

"Yueyue likes these?"

"Mmm, looks good~"

"Then if Daddy sees any nice stones in the future, can I bring them back to you?"

The little guy's voice was soft and sticky: "Okay~"

After Wang Haitao finished his round, he clasped his fists towards Old Tan and said, "Thank you for letting me in, Uncle Tan."

Lao Tan quickly threw the chess piece up: "Come again, come again, I will definitely win the next round..."

Wang Haitao was willing to come, and Lao Tan was pulled up by Axiong.

"Dad, are you still going down after dinner?"

Lao Tan pulled back his new clothes and said, "What are you eating? It's tasteless without even any soy sauce. Whoever wants to eat it can eat it."

"During the New Year, you guys enjoyed the feast, but I suffered. I was even playing chess, but you refused to let me. Who is the boss anyway?"

Ah Xiong explained: "Dad, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone is eating vegetarian..."

"Bullshit! Don't think I didn't see you secretly picking up a pig's trotter and chewing it..."

"Ahem~" Old Man Su picked up the hookah and pulled Wang Haitao, "Xiao Wang, let's eat too!"

Then he shouted towards the yard: "Honghong, bring your brothers and sisters home for dinner."

"I know, Grandpa."

Su Chen helped Yueyue pack up her things, and carried little Ayun into the house, when he was stopped by Wang Haitao.

"Master Su, what's going on with that crow's mouth? I heard Aliang say there was a purple aura..."

"Are you sure you want to hear it?"

Wang Haitao: “…”

"Well, then I'll wait until Liu Xian wakes up before asking. Haha, hey, let me see what delicious food Auntie has made tonight..."

"It's delicious, but you can only have this one meal. Starting tomorrow, some shops on the street should be open for business, so you won't go hungry anymore."

As soon as Su Chen said this, Liu Chunhua slapped his arm in dissatisfaction: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

She turned and smiled at Wang Haitao: "Xiao Wang, you are welcome to come anytime."

This Mandarin is not standard, but it is understandable.

Wang Haitao grinned: "Don't worry, Auntie, I'll come when I'm free."

"Okay, okay, come and try this meatball."

The meatballs are fried with celery, cabbage, tofu and flour, which uses a lot of oil.

In the past, Liu Chunhua wouldn't do this for three to five years.

But this year she had money, so Liu Chunhua specially saved a large pot of peanut oil. She fried rice cakes in the morning, meatballs in the evening, and even left some to stir-fry a few dishes.

Wang Haitao has a big appetite. He always finishes his meals in the morning and at noon. In the evening, he and Old Man Su also eat until the end while drinking and chatting.

Old Man Su spoke in a mixture of local dialect and Mandarin. Perhaps because Wang Haitao was good at talking, as they talked, Old Man Su's Mandarin became much more standard.

Su Chen listened for a while and nodded subconsciously.

I was worried that my parents wouldn’t be able to adapt to living in the city, but this is great.

As long as you are willing to communicate, what language can’t you learn?

After playing happily all day, the children fell asleep quickly after dinner.

After Su Chen sent Wang Haitao back, he drew talismans for a while, and when the time was almost right, he entered the ghost path.

Even on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Lingtou Town was not very bright.

Only one street in the town had lights on, and from the few houses that still had lights on came the sound of people playing cards.

Su Chen took a few steps and saw Zhang Ming.

He was leading his men in ambush in the darkness, his eyes fixed on the yard ahead.

Su Chen jumped onto the wall, looked down from above, and had a clear view.

In the yard, the old man was tearfully pulling a young man who was about thirty years old.

"Son, Zheng is your son after all. Can you please not sell him off? Can you please?"

She was thrown away.

"You told me not to sell it, so why not? He's been causing us so much trouble for so many years. Ten thousand! I can get ten thousand more if I send this jinx away. You're telling me not to sell it? Are you stupid?"

The captured Ah Zheng bit the young man's hand fiercely, causing him to let go in pain. Ah Zheng took the opportunity to sneak over to the old woman and cried, "Call the police, grandma, let's call the police!"

The old man shook his head: "No, you can't report it, Zheng, you can't report it. If you report it, your parents will go to jail, do you know?"

"But they want to sell me...My uncle said it's illegal."

He was slapped in the face so hard that he was completely stunned.

"Grandma?" Ah Zheng looked at the old woman in surprise.

The old man angrily said, "They are your parents. Even if what they did was wrong and illegal, they are still your parents. Calling the police is unfilial! You are not allowed to go!"
