Something happened. This is not going to be bloody.

Chapter 90: Wuchang Office - Human Heart is Unpredictable

The reason why the two people from the special intelligence department were familiar with Zhou Leng was because they were the ones who handled the incident caused by Zhou Leng’s live broadcast and the videos on the Internet. When the two heard about the evil ghost, they felt a little heavy in their hearts.

Zhou Leng briefly recounted Lu Yong's story, and finally said:

"Lu Yong had originally turned into an ordinary ghost. I don't know what stimulated him to become an evil ghost. But I think the matter is very complicated. Could it be that he could turn into an evil ghost just by any stimulation? There haven't been many evil ghosts in Lan City in all these years."

The two officials thought for a moment and said, "According to what you said, Lu Yong turned into a demon and hurt those two people, but demons and humans are not in the same realm, so how could he hurt people directly?"

Zhou Leng replied:

"You ask me? You want me to ask the evil spirit? Anyway, you guys can handle this matter. I'm not a criminal. Just go through the formalities and let me go. The child in their family lost two souls after being hit by the evil spirit. I have cast a spell to find them back, but she will have to wait a few days for the souls to stabilize and merge before she can return to normal. However, there will still be some effects. It's really pitiful for the child."

The three of them chatted briefly and added each other as friends. The two people from the Special Affairs Department went to handle the formalities and released Zhou Leng.

Three days later.

Zhou Leng received a notice from the police station. It turned out that Fei Caiying's family came from the countryside to identify the body. The other party's mother wanted to make an appointment to meet Zhou Leng in order to thank him.

One afternoon, Zhou Leng met Fei Caiying's mother. She was white-haired and holding the four-year-old child in her hands. There was no relative around her.

After both parties sat down, before Zhou Leng could speak, the other party had already played the emotional card. She said in a low voice: "You are a good person."

Zhou Leng nodded affirmatively, and she said bluntly: "Everyone knows that I am a good person, so you don't need to repeat it."

The other party flattered him, "My daughter's life was much better than mine, but she didn't know how to cherish it. I heard everything about her from the police. The child had a genetic test, and the police said she was not Lu Yong's biological child. My daughter died tragically, but the police said they couldn't find any suspicious points, and there were no fingerprints of the fourth person at the scene. Now all that's left is this child who has become a little fool."

Zhou Leng continued to listen expressionlessly. She didn't know what the other party wanted to say or whether he just wanted to express his feelings.

The other party continued:

"You don't know how miserable my life is. My hometown is on the other side of the Xiangjiang River. I was trafficked to Lan City. It was in 1986 when I was caught by human traffickers and trafficked to Lan City. Here, my name and identity were changed. I gave birth to three sons and a daughter. Now my daughter has died tragically. Those three unfilial sons don't even come to see their sister, let alone raise this silly child. I was thinking about this child... could you adopt this child? I heard from them that you and Caiying and her husband are friends, so I shamelessly asked you to do that."

Zhou Leng frowned slightly. Isn't this a moral blackmail? She wanted to refute but asked again:

"Your life story is indeed pitiful. Where were you trafficked from? Xiangjiang? What was your original name?"

The other party replied:

"After so many years here, I actually feel that this is my home. My original name is Shi Rongrong, and it was the name my mother gave me. Girl, I have to tell you the truth. Family is the most important thing in life. I really can't bear to let this child live a hard life with me again. I don't know much about what my daughter and son-in-law left behind. If this thing falls into my hands, I'm afraid it will be snatched away by my three unfilial sons in less than a month. What will happen to my little granddaughter then?"

In fact, Shi Rongrong knew that her daughter and son-in-law had been living a tight life and thought that they did not have much savings. She did not know about Lu Yong's compensation yet, so she spoke like this.

Zhou Leng straightened his posture and said, "Do you still remember Zhu Guangshan, your fellow villager?"

The other party frowned and thought for a while before saying, "I seem to have some impression of that. When I was young, I was a waiter and always went to him to get some meat. What did you ask him for?"

Zhou Leng cheered up and said, "I visited your sister in your hometown last month. You don't know that after you disappeared..." She recounted the dismemberment case in detail and talked about Zhu Guangshan's death.

Shi Rongrong was stunned for a long time before he said, "I am living well, am I not? Why did they execute someone? This will not have any impact on me, right?"

Zhou Leng said:

"I understand what you said. To be honest, I hate to see unjust cases the most in my life, so I have been investigating. If you help to be a witness in this case, I will sort out your house and property and make a notarization. Then you can live a good life in this city with your children, and I will take care of you on weekdays."

Shi Rongrong was silent for a while. After a while, she asked:

"According to what you said, if the official verdict is wrong, then this will be a long lawsuit! I am involved in such a big thing, and I am a little scared. Besides, I can't live in this city. I am used to life in the village. My wife died two years ago and I was left alone. I have to take care of the land, chickens and ducks at home. I can't live without someone at home."

Zhou Leng looked at her and said:

"Anyway, I will definitely expose this matter. You can't escape cooperating with this matter no matter what. It's up to you whether you do it actively or passively. Think about your life. You never went back to see your sister who missed you. When your daughter died, you gave her flesh and blood to others to raise. Aren't they more important than the chickens and ducks you raised?"

Shi Rongrong was a little embarrassed. She wanted to argue but didn't know what to say. Finally, she could only say, "Let me think about it again."

Zhou Leng added, "Now you have a place to stay. If you don't mind, you can stay at my house for a few days. After all, the police still need to find you to understand the situation, and you have to cooperate with the investigation."

Shi Rongrong finally went home with Zhou Leng. She thought he was being enthusiastic, but in fact he was afraid that she would disappear again. Zhou Leng even took a look at her current ID card, which showed that her name had been changed to Shi Guifen, and her address was also in a mountain village in Lan City.

Life returned to normal again.

Zhou Leng still went out at night and came back early to see the deceased off.

Four days later.

Lu Zengqing returned to normal, but she forgot everything that happened before. She started everything from scratch. Shi Rongrong did not tell her about the past. Zhou Leng became her aunt, and she was still her grandmother, but she no longer had her parents.

With the help of Zhou Leng and the police, Shi Rongrong took out all the property of the Lu family, about two million yuan. Her first reaction when she saw the money was surprise. Then she wanted to take what she deserved. She wanted to take the money back and share it with her three sons who lived in poverty.

Zhou Leng felt that it was wrong but had no right to interfere.

According to the first priority of property inheritance, one is parents and the other is children. She wanted to take the money that she deserved, and the police could not find any fault.

Lu Yong grew up alone in an orphanage.

Many times, if you have money, just spend it. If something unexpected happens one day, you don’t know who will benefit.
