Yokai Office

Chapter 13

After the human skin case was over, Shen Xi returned to his small shop.

Eating, drinking, and looking at the store, the small days are quite pleasant.

However, ever since Zongci pointed out that "handwriting is ugly", Shen Xi's self-esteem, which has always claimed to be "handwriting is beautiful", has been hit like a devastation.

Of course, it didn't take long before he had his pride glued back on.

He also took out his small money and went to a small book stand to find two copies of copybooks called "30-Day Instant Handwriting Master".

Shen Xi looked at the title of the book, as if he had found a treasure.

He works hard every day to copy carefully, stroke by stroke, consciously improving rapidly.

Shen Xi was very satisfied, and planned to repurchase a few copies and sell them to the monsters in the demon world.

***

Fast forward to October.

The sweet-scented osmanthus in Baili District finally bloomed, and the whole street was filled with a strong fragrance, refreshing.

After Shen Xi finished his breakfast, he habitually stood at the door and took a deep breath.

He waited until the fragrance of flowers permeated into his body along with the air, then he turned around in satisfaction, sat on the small table in the shop, took out the copybook, and prepared to start today's copying.

Just started writing two words, and the wooden wind chime hanging at the door rustled.

Sensing someone approaching, Shen Xi looked up and waited for a while.

A few seconds later, as expected, a boy in a student uniform came in, "Hello, is this the boss?"

"Hello." Shen Xi got up, looked him up and down, and by the way, glanced at the embroidered words on the school uniform.

Chenguang High School?

An ordinary human student?

The boy looks quite gentle, but his face is a little pale, and there are thick dark circles under his eyes.

"I, I want to buy something from you. Someone recommended me." The boy said unnaturally.

As soon as Shen Xi heard that the business was coming, he didn't ask who the recommender was, so he asked, "Tell me what you need first?"

He didn't directly agree to the other party's words. There are some things in the demon world that cannot be sold to humans, so as not to cause disasters.

Although Shen Xi can be regarded as a money fanatic, he also knows how to get it properly.

"Is there any amulet to ward off evil spirits?" the boy asked.

"Yes, yes." Shen Xi replied.He looked at the boy, and was surprised when he saw the cautious look on his face.

In this day and age, doesn't the human student party not believe in this?

Seeing that Shen Xi didn't answer for a long time, the boy's face was gradually replaced by nervousness, he didn't know what he thought of, he took out his wallet and mobile phone, and handed these things to Shen Xi in a panic, "Please! I came to you after listening to an uncle!"

"I, I seem to be... entangled by messy things recently, and I have nightmares every now and then!" The boy paused, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead in a short time, "Please!"

He took out several cards from his wallet, and said, "Pay with your mobile phone or give you these cards directly. I will tell you the passwords of the cards! As long as you can give me an amulet to ward off evil..."

Shen Xi choked, apparently he didn't expect that the other party was a rich second generation.

However, after hearing the boy's remarks, Shen Xi also had a general inference.

I guess it's a ghost press?To keep having nightmares?

It's easy to talk about things that ward off evil spirits.

After all, there are too many ghost presses, which will have an impact on the physical and mental state of the students.

"Okay, don't be nervous." Shen Xi told him to sit down, and poured him a glass of water, "Wait for me, I'll go to the compartment to find you an amulet."

The boy nodded.

***

Shen Xi turned and walked towards the compartment, and he took out a rhombus pendant from the storage bag.

This pendant is made of tortoiseshell shell, and is distributed by the patriarch in the demon world to the little demons who are one year old.

Shen Xi got this one when he was a child, and he has kept it safe until now.

The tortoise shell has the meaning of auspicious longevity, warding off evil spirits and bringing blessings, and it is also consecrated by several senior monster elders with advanced cultivation.

Take people's money and save people's disasters.

Shen Xi deliberately used his spiritual power again, double insurance.

Well, it should be all right now?

Shen Xi made up his mind and took out the pendant.

"Boy, this is for you." Shen Xi handed over the pendant, "Take it and use it."

The boy quickly took the thing and put it on his body without looking at it!

"Thank you boss, how much is it?"

After what happened last time, Shen Xi didn't dare to be too greedy this time, and collected some money in a polite manner.

The boy thanked him again and again, and then walked out of the store quickly.

After the other party left, Shen Xi felt that he lost his strength for a while.

His spiritual power was already weak, and he had put a lot of it on the pendant just now.

"Forget it, it's open today anyway, let's close the door and rest for a while."

***

That afternoon, five o'clock.

"Team Zong." Liu Huo rushed in, "Ju Fu just sent someone to call! He told us to go to Chenguang High School, there is something urgent!"

Zongci raised his eyebrows, "Is there something urgent?"

"That's right. I also made a special call to Fu Ju. He seemed to be very busy. He just asked you to hurry over and then hung up." Liu Huo made a guess, "Team Zong, tell me, did something happen again? ?”

Zong Ci stood up and said lightly, "Go and have a look, it's not going to be a good thing anyway."

Hearing this ridicule, he was overjoyed, and responded, "Yes."

***

After five o'clock, it was the dismissal time of Chenguang High School.

Today is Friday, and it is common sense that many students will be in a hurry to go home.But now, a large group of students gathered at the gate of the school, whispering, with different expressions.

"Team Zong, this way." Fu Shenglin's special assistant came over.

Zong Ci glanced at Liu Huo, and the two followed each other and walked over together.

Go around the large sculpture at the school gate and a long garden, turn to the left, and you will see Teaching Building No. [-].

Zongci could see from a distance that there was a forbidden line around the bottom of the teaching building.

Because many inspectors stayed there, but there were no students.

It seems that something happened, and the students were dismissed.

"Team Zong, there is a smell of blood." Liu Huo said in a low voice.

"Ah."

In addition, they also heard a middle-aged woman crying heartbreakingly, "You give me back my son! Good people, if you say no, you will be gone!"

Zongci saw Fu Shenglin and walked quickly.

"Zongci, you've come." Fu Chenglin waved to him.

When I got closer, I saw a lot of blood dripping on the ground, and a large white cloth covered something, but it was also soaked in blood.

"A student jumped off the building." Fu Shenglin frowned and said next to Zongci.

Zong Ci glanced at the scene.

There was another man next to the middle-aged woman. They were probably the parents of the students, and they were arguing loudly with the school leaders at the moment.

"Is this up to you?" Zong Ci asked in a low voice.

"In just five days, there were three incidents of students jumping off the building, and the deceased stood on the roof with exactly the same words and deeds before jumping off the building, shouting 'I was wrong'. As a result, the higher-ups felt that something was wrong and sent me to investigate."

Zong Ci asked back, "Then why did you ask me?"

Fu Chenglin clicked his tongue, "I'm also afraid that something might be wrong, so I asked you to take a look."

The parents of the students were noisy, and Zong Ci gave Fu Shenglin a wink.

The latter will understand.

It wasn't long before the students' parents were taken elsewhere.Of course, it is unavoidable to continue to quarrel with the school.

***

Zongci put on disposable gloves, finally pulled past the forbidden line, and walked in.

Liu Huo took the first step and lifted the white cloth from the corpse.

From the height of the fifth floor, the body was still intact, with the head bloody and bloody.

It seemed that the head hit the ground first, and after being hit hard, he died on the spot.

Zongci avoided everyone's gaze, and attached a trace of spiritual power to his eyes.

The whole body was filled with black mist.

If it was a natural death, it would only be a blood-red mist.

And this blackness is obviously a manifestation of evil spirits entering the body.

Zong Ci understood it, and when he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he saw a faint white light glowing from the neck of the corpse.

Very light, very light, almost ignored by people.

Zong Ci noticed something was wrong, and his expression changed slightly.

"Team Zong?"

"Give me the tweezers and the white cloth."

Liuhuo cooperated quickly, and Zongci quickly took out the neck of the corpse and put it on the white cloth.

Objects covered in blood are almost invisible.

Liuhuo wiped it clean and handed it to Zongci again.

Zong Ci took it, carefully identified it, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Team Zong, have you found anything?"

Zong Ci didn't speak, he got up and walked towards Fu Shenglin.Liu Huo covered the body with a white cloth again and walked out.

"Zongci, how are you?"

Zong Ci looked at him, and said directly, "It's tricky, if the corpses of the first two students haven't been cremated, find a way to let me take a look. Also, transfer all the materials of these three students to me."

Hearing these words, Fu Chenglin knew that this matter was not easy, so he nodded heavily.

"I will report to the Monster Bureau and take over the case. But before that, I have to go to a place first and call later."

"it is good."

***

Zong Ci got into the car, and Liu Huo who was beside him couldn't wait to ask, "Team Zong, where are we going?"

"Baili District, look for Shen Xi."

"Ah? Why?" Liu Huo was surprised.

Zong Ci handed him the pendant in his hand, and explained, "This tortoiseshell pendant has Shen Xi's spiritual power attached to it. The deceased must have had contact with Shen Xi before, or in other words, this thing was given to the deceased by Shen Xi. of."

The whole body of the deceased was covered with white spiritual power.

But Zong Ci had explored the spiritual power in Shen Xi's body before, so he was naturally very clear.

The two soon came to Baili District.

Shen Xi was having dinner and was about to close the shop and go back to the cubicle to sleep.

When he saw Zongci and Liuhuo, he was very surprised, "Zongtu, Liuhuo, why are you here?"

Liu Huo, who already knew the inside story, couldn't help interjecting, "Xixi, you're in trouble again!"

Shen Xi:? ? ?
