Aoba Office

The day after discharge was the weekend.

I told my parents that I wanted to treat the thin boy to dinner. As a thank you, they didn't doubt me. They just asked me not to play outside too late and that I should get more rest now.

Shouzi and the others also wanted to see how Qingye's people would deal with You Qiqi, but there were too many people, so they would inevitably attract too much attention.

Wu Ling directly asked us to wait in the old area of ​​Tiexiang.

There is now a new community there. Of course, "new" is compared to the original Tiexiang old area. A residential area with a history of more than 20 years can already be said to be an old community. It is outside the city center. The management of that community is certainly not strict.

The thin man and I took a car and arrived at the community first.

I originally wanted to find the location of Iron Alley, but the road planning of this new community did not leave Iron Alley free. I originally only had a rough impression of the location of Iron Alley, and it was really difficult to find it.

Fatty drove around the community to see if he could find any clues.

To our surprise, it was Chen Xiaoqiu who made the discovery.

Chen Xiaoqiu suddenly asked Fatty to stop the car and looked straight ahead.

There is a residential building in front of it, with community roads and green belts on both sides. It is not the center of the community, nor is it the corner of the community.

The place looks ordinary.

We all looked at Chen Xiaoqiu.

Chen Xiaoqiu asked Fatty to park in the parking space next to him.

After the car stopped, she stared at that place for a long time, raised her hand and drew a line in the air.

"Did you see it?" I was surprised, and then I thought about Wu Ling's guess about the identities of Chen Yihan and Chen Xiaoqiu, and I felt a little relieved.

"I can see vague shadows. But I don't see ghosts." Chen Xiaoqiu said.

"What does it look like?" The thin man asked immediately, "The kind of ruins passage with murals and sculptures?"

I couldn't help but look sideways.

As far as I could see in my dream, Iron Alley was just a bare tunnel, still dark, with no light source.

Chen Xiaoqiu thought for a while and described it: "It's a bit like floaters."

This description is really beyond our expectation.

"Floaters?" The thin man repeated, his tone was 100% suspicious.

"What I saw was like floaters, just little gray lines. These lines didn't move as I turned my eyes."

The latter is probably the difference between what Chen Xiaoqiu saw and floaters.

In any case, this result is somewhat incredible.

Chen Xiaoqiu looked thoughtful.

There is nothing to do if you just wait.

Guo Yujie asked Chen Xiaoqiu what he was thinking about.

"I'm thinking that this may... be a phenomenon. A phenomenon that I can see." Chen Xiaoqiu said, "If I use this as a standard, I may be able to discover a lot of things."

"The office of the underworld!" I suddenly thought of that thing.

Among the incidents Aoba had dealt with, some involved the underworld. The underworld office located in an ordinary residential area makes people feel weird and magical.

If Chen Xiaoqiu can really see things belonging to the underworld, then she will definitely be able to discover those offices in the underworld.

"Have you seen anything recently?" I asked Chen Xiaoqiu.

Chen Xiaoqiu shook his head.

She didn't know if she couldn't see those things yet, or if she saw them but didn't take them seriously when she saw them. Another possibility is that there is no office set up by the underworld within the scope of Chen Xiaoqiu's commuting activities.

I don't know much about this either. Fortunately, Wu Ling and others will come over later, and you can ask Wu Ling if you have any questions.

I thought of this, slapped my forehead, and sent a message to Wu Ling.

Qingye's people came to confirm before, and now they have confirmed that they want to take action, so they must have locked the location of Iron Alley.

Wu Ling was a little slow in replying to the message this time, maybe because he was dealing with You Qiqi.

It took more than ten minutes before I received the message from Wu Ling.

"Go through Building 18." I read it again.

The thin man made a gesture of looking into the distance and affirmed: "That building is Building No. 18."

It seemed that Chen Xiaoqiu was right.

"How are they?" the thin man asked again.

"You Qiqi has been caught." I looked at the message and couldn't imagine it.

How did Wu Ling and the others catch You Qiqi?

You Qiqi is a big living person now.

When I thought of this, I was stunned.

You Qiqi plotted against his biological sister and killed his biological parents. The latter can also be regarded as revenge against the biological father and mother who are worse than animals, which makes it somewhat understandable. You Qiqi also "personally" "went to jail", which was punished to a certain extent. The former is what makes me most angry, and it is also the reason why I want to help You Jing and punish You Qiqi.

I originally thought that this should be regarded as "bringing order to order" and eliminating an evil ghost, but now that I think about it, I feel that this can barely be regarded as a family matter of the You family. I have no right to interfere, either emotionally or rationally.

You Jing...she was plotted by You Qiqi and didn't know the truth. I didn't have a chance to communicate with her either. What choice will she make after knowing the truth?

Maybe, just accept this reality and let You Qiqi continue to use her body?

At present, You Qiqi's "crime", in addition to the incident related to her family's "annihilation" twenty years ago, is what we now suspect. She became the subordinate of that new thing, helped that new thing harm people, and also deliberately murdered Han Jiesheng.

I don't know what Aoba's people plan to do.

If you can be sure that You Qiqi is connected with that new thing, this operation can be considered a success, right?

I was thinking about this and was poked hard by Guo Yujie before I came back to my senses.

"What are you thinking about? What else did Wu Ling say?" Guo Yujie asked.

I opened my mouth and said what I just thought of.

"According to Qingye's original approach and the current situation of this world, murderous ghosts can only be dealt with by people like them... us, right?" Chen Xiaoqiu said. She changed her words midway, as if she had accepted her new identity.

I felt a little dazed after listening to it.

I have dealt with some ghosts before, but they all had the form of ghosts, and the guilt of murder was clear and irrefutable. Regarding You Qiqi's matter, I felt a little uncertain.

"The question now is, how will You Jing react after seeing You Qiqi." Chen Xiaoqiu continued.

Yes, You Jing's reaction and attitude are the root cause of my uneasiness.

No matter how you look at it, You Jing looks like an autistic person, not that serious, but not mild either. It is really difficult to predict what she will become after her death and during these twenty years of isolation.

Just as I was thinking about this, I saw the vehicle in the rearview mirror.

It's Aoba's car.

The car stopped behind our car.

The first one to get out of the car was Wu Ling. After getting off the car, he did not say hello to us, but walked to the back of their car.

I couldn't see Wu Ling's movements for a while, but a moment later, I saw her squatting on the ground, holding a roll of sealing tape in her hand, and applying seals on the road in the community.

This behavior is really weird.

What's even weirder is that the roll of sealing tape in Wu Ling's hand looks like a special tape sold online. It has patterns on it, or patterns similar to talismans.

"I saw this kind of tape on the Internet last time. It's small and costs one yuan per roll." The thin man said seriously.
