Bad luck

"If Zeng Peng was still alive, things would be much easier. Let him apologize and atone for those cats."

Chi Jingyuan stared blankly at Qi Yitang's slender fingers, "But he's already dead."

Qi Yitang put the handkerchief on the table, "Yes."

So there is no way around it?Chi Jingyuan thought about it.

Qi Yitang comforted: "Don't worry, your colleague will have a solution."

"Xia Yunzhou?" Chi Jingyuan asked.

Qi Yitang nodded, "His grandfather has some skills."

"Second Uncle, do you know Xia Yunzhou's grandfather?" Chi Jingyuan was a little surprised. After all, Qi Yitang is also a ghost. Is it really okay to deal with a celestial master?

"I met you a few times in the early years." Qi Yitang took a sip of tea from the teacup and said lightly.

Chi Jingyuan wondered why Xia Yunzhou's grandfather was in his seventies, and Qi Yitang said that he met him in the early years, how early was it?By the way, how old is Qi Yitang?

Qi Yitang noticed Chi Jingyuan's gaze, turned her head, and looked at him with a smile: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, there is a case recently, and I may come back later." Chi Jingyuan said.

"Well, rest early." Qi Yitang didn't stay with Chi Jingyuan for long, and left.

Chi Jingyuan finished eating the apple, brushed his teeth, and fell asleep.

Qi Yitang, who had no idea that she had left, turned back and put her fingertips between his brows to immobilize his soul.

Chi Jingyuan's current physical condition is much better than before, and there is no danger of his soul going out of his body whenever he encounters a situation with severe evil spirits, but this is not enough.

Qi Yitang stroked Chi Jingyuan's face worriedly.

The next day, when Chi Jingyuan went to work, he showed the surveillance video to Xia Yunzhou and the others.

"He went down by himself?" Wu Di widened his eyes, "No wonder there was no sound of falling into the water."

"Isn't he looking for death by himself?" As soon as Tian Tian finished speaking, Su Bian gave her a disdainful look, "Look carefully, his feet."

"Damn it! Ghost upper body?!" Wu Di exclaimed, Tian Tian took a closer look, Zeng Peng's heel really didn't touch the ground.

"It's not a cat." Xia Yunzhou frowned. He originally thought that Zeng Peng was revenged by a cat, but this video overturned his guess.

"Could it be the thing in the mirror yesterday?" Chi Jingyuan asked.

Xia Yunzhou suddenly thought of this matter, he was a little dizzy, he actually forgot such an important thing.

"What mirror?" Wu Di and Tian Tian asked at the same time.

Xia Yunzhou told them about the fact that Zeng Peng stretched out his hands from the mirror in his room and almost strangled him to death.

"Zeng Peng won't play the game of inviting spirits to death, right?" Wu Di couldn't believe it.

"What?" Chi Jingyuan heard this for the first time.

Wu Di remembered that Chi Jingyuan was an outsider, and explained to him: "It's just a game of recruiting ghosts, similar to dish fairy, pen fairy and so on."

"I don't know if you've heard of a saying that you can peel an apple in front of the mirror at midnight, and if the peel of the apple is not broken, you will be able to see the appearance of your future partner."

Chi Jingyuan vaguely remembered this, and heard it from a female classmate in his class when he was a child.

"Well, you mean, Zeng Peng just played this game?"

Wu Di said, "Very likely."

Tian Tian interjected, "Then why did Zeng Peng take so long to die?"

Su Bian said, "How do you know when he played?"

Tian Tian suddenly realized that what he said was true, if Zeng Peng played this game the night before Chi Jingyuan's birthday, it would not be surprising that he died the next night.

"He's a big man. He spends most of the night peeling apples in his room to see his future partner. I'm afraid he's not a fool." Wu Di couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

This sounds really unbelievable. After all, Zeng Peng is in his twenties anyway, so he shouldn't be so mentally retarded.

Chi Jingyuan suddenly came up with an idea, "Then what if he bet with someone else?"

"That's right, he has such an arrogant personality, it would make sense if he made a bet with someone to do this kind of thing." Wu Di remembered Zeng Peng's appearance that night, and his eyes lit up, "Let's go to Zeng Peng's now." Friends for proof."

Chi Jingyuan originally wanted to find Chi Ruian and ask him if he had the contact information of Zeng Peng's friend, but just as he took out his phone, his hand stopped. He remembered that night when Chi Ruian pushed him away.

"What's wrong?" Wu Di looked at Chi Jingyuan and asked.

"It's okay." Chi Jingyuan didn't contact Chi Ruian in the end, but found the butler of Zeng Peng's family. When the case is over, he can talk to Chi Ruian again.

Wu Di and Tian Tian went to find Zeng Peng's friend, and Xia Yunzhou and the three stayed in the office of the special case department to study how to solve the matter of Zeng's family being resented by cats.

"My grandfather said that this matter is difficult to handle, and the cat's resentment is not so easy to resolve." Xia Yunzhou showed a distressed expression.

Chi Jingyuan propped his chin and said, "I also asked my second uncle, and he told the Zeng family to throw Zeng Peng's body to the cat to eat."

Xia Yunzhou and Su Bian colleagues showed shocked expressions, Xia Yunzhou asked cautiously: "Did you ask the extradition envoy?"

"Well, he also said that things would be much easier if Zeng Peng was still alive." Chi Jingyuan spoke truthfully.

Xia Yunzhou and Su Bian were wondering, is the extradition envoy so kind and easy to talk to?

"Hey, Chi Jingyuan, you and I went back so late last night, and you bothered the extradition envoy, isn't he unhappy?" Xia Yunzhou asked cautiously.

Chi Jingyuan froze for a moment, a little surprised at Xia Yunzhou's focus, "No."

In fact, Xia Yunzhou and Su Bian were very curious about the extradition envoy. After all, he was a legendary figure. Now that he has suddenly stepped down and become the elder of his colleague, it is inevitable that he wants to know more about it.

"Is that so." Xia Yunzhou was too embarrassed to ask, and naturally turned the topic back to Zeng Peng's case.

"The first method is definitely not feasible. I think Zeng's father and Zeng's mother hated Zeng Peng, but they didn't have the heart to send her child's corpse to the cat." Xia Yunzhou analyzed carefully: " The second way is that Zeng Peng is already dead."

Su Bian suddenly said, "He's dead, but his soul is still there."

Chi Jingyuan and Xia Yunzhou suddenly realized, "That's right, he died just two days ago, and his soul will come back in the first seven days, and then his soul can apologize to those cats."

Xia Yunzhou picked up his mobile phone and called his grandfather. His grandfather said that although the solution was feasible, the group of cats might not accept it.

Thinking about it, he still felt horrified when he recalled how he treated the cat in such a cruel way.

Chi Jingyuan sat in his seat, thought for a moment, and said to Xia Yunzhou and the two: "If we promise to take over the Cat Fighting Club and get rid of those victimized cats, will those cats' grudges be willing to give up their troubles?"

Xia Yunzhou patted Chi Jingyuan on the shoulder, "Good suggestion."

Chi Jingyuan and Xia Yunzhou went to Zeng Peng's house, which was isolated by Xia Yunzhou's spells, full of evil spirits, as soon as they entered, Chi Jingyuan felt uncomfortable in his heart.

He subconsciously clenched the wooden sign around his neck, two more cats in the house died, Chi Jingyuan frowned, the Zeng family didn't feed them.

"Meow——" Although the cats were dying, they still stared at Chi Jingyuan and Xia Yunzhou with resentful eyes, and the cat meowed from their throats, hoarse and shrill.

Xia Yunzhou stepped forward, trying to negotiate with them, but the cats retreated vigilantly, ready to attack at any time.

Standing at the door, Chi Jingyuan suddenly met the eyes of a pure black cat. It was already very thin, and a pair of golden eyes stared at Chi Jingyuan without blinking.

It almost merged with the darkness, if it wasn't for Chi Jingyuan's good eyesight, it would be hard to spot it.

"Let's go." Xia Yunzhou patted Chi Jingyuan's shoulder, and Chi Jingyuan's shoulder shook, and he suddenly came back to his senses.

He was distracted just now?

When Chi Jingyuan walked to the door, he turned and glanced at the black cat again. The black cat was still standing there, staring at him quietly.

His spine felt a little numb.

"I can't negotiate, they are very conflicted." Xia Yunzhou shook his head, looking gloomy.

"Then what should we do?" Chi Jingyuan was thinking about the time for the Fighting Cat Club's gathering in his mind, and he had to communicate well with them during this time.

Xia Yunzhou shook his head, "Let me think of a way."

They walked to the main entrance, and the housekeeper greeted them. Chi Jingyuan remembered that there was no food in that room.

"You didn't feed the cat?"

The butler was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Chi Jingyuan to ask this question, "Didn't you say you can't get close to that side?"

Chi Jingyuan frowned, "I haven't fed you all this time."

The butler's shoulders shook, "How...how is it possible..."

Chi Jingyuan became more convinced of his thoughts, "If you do many unrighteous actions, you will die yourself."

The butler's face turned pale in an instant, "Chi...Master Chi, this...this is all ordered by our young master. As servants, we just obey orders."

"He behaved mischievously. Instead of dissuading him, you helped him to do evil. You have to blame yourself for what happened today." Chi Jingyuan is not a child of a few years old. How could he believe what the butler said? If the other servants really did not It's easy to manage, but the housekeeper is different. In the Chi family, even Chi Jingyuan's great-grandfather and grandpa have to give Steward Lu some face, after all, he is an old man who has been working for the family.

The butler's face was ashen, his legs were weak, and he almost knelt down to Chi Jingyuan. Chi Jingyuan was right, Zeng Peng's behavior also had his connivance in it, he shielded Zeng Peng and concealed the truth about Mrs. Madam, because he knew that, The master has only one son, Zeng Peng, and everything in the Zeng family belongs to Zeng Peng, so he naturally wants to curry favor with this future master.

After leaving the Zeng's house, Xia Yunzhou looked at Chi Jingyuan hesitantly. His family background was not bad, so he could see that the housekeeper was protecting Zeng Peng, but he never said it out. After all, it was someone else's business, and he also It doesn't matter, he just needs to be responsible for finding out the case.

Xia Yunzhou faintly sensed that Chi Jingyuan might be more upright and kind-hearted than he appeared on the surface.

They returned to the office on their front feet, and Wu Di and Tian Tian came back on their back feet.

"How is it?" Xia Yunzhou asked.

Wu Di shook his head and said, "Zeng Peng's friends said that they have never played this kind of game."

That is to say, their speculations are not valid.

Tian Tian said, "But we found another thing."

"According to Zeng Peng's friends, Zeng Peng seems to have dated a girlfriend, but he hides her very well. No matter what they say, Zeng Peng is unwilling to show him to them."

Chi Jingyuan took a pen and paper, and wrote: Mysterious girlfriend.
