Yokai Office

When Shen Xi returned to the office, Liu Huo walked over, "You bought so many?"

"En." Shen Xi looked at his wrist that was still aching, and handed the bag containing snacks to Liu Huo, "Liu Huo, you eat first, I'll go up and find Zong Ci."

Liu Huo took the bag and nodded, "Okay. I'll call you when there is business coming."

"Ah."

Shen Xi rubbed his wrists and walked towards the office on the second floor.

"Zong Ci." He pushed open the office door and shouted.

Zong Ci looked up at him, got up and walked straight over, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing..." Shen Xi sat down on the sofa, "I just went out and bought a lot of delicious food, do you want it?"

"No need, just keep those snacks for yourself." Zong Ci smiled and rubbed his head.

Shen Xi stretched out her hand, wanting to pull him to her side.

In the end, before he could speak, Zong Ci grabbed his wrist, "Why is it so popular here? Did you hit it?"

"No." Seeing Zong Ci's serious expression, Shen Xi quickly withdrew his hand and shook it casually.

Zongci sat down beside him, took his hand, and touched the reddened part of his wrist with his fingertips, slowly rubbing and pushing, "What's wrong?"

"It's really okay, I just bumped into someone accidentally on the way to buy things." Shen Xi always felt that Zong Ci protected him too much, and muttered, "Then both of them dropped their things on the ground. I helped him pick it up, but he squeezed my wrist all at once."

Zong Ci frowned slightly upon hearing this.

"Probably because his things are very important, so he doesn't let others touch them?" Shen Xi guessed.

"Ordinary people's hands are so strong?" Zong Ci was a little displeased, obviously targeting the stranger he had never met.

Shen Xi leaned close to him, and argued, "It's not because the red string you gave me was pressed by the beads on it."

Zong Ci looked at him helplessly, "Are you blaming me now? Then give me back the red rope?"

In the words, there is obvious intention.

"I don't want to give it back to you." Shen Xi withdrew his hand, and then put his arms around his shoulders, "Zongci, don't spoil me too much. At that time, I will really be pampered by you."

"I'm not a little girl..."

Zongci habitually patted his forehead, "Who spoils you like a little girl? You have to think about it yourself."

"Isn't that right?" Shen Xi retorted, "Wrists are a little red, and you've been asking me for a long time."

Zong Ci had a gentle smile in his eyes, and he couldn't help scolding, "With your mouth, you can say whatever you want."

Shen Xi chuckled.

"What I mean is that our physique is different from that of ordinary people. No matter how strong ordinary people are, it is impossible for ordinary people to easily... squeeze their wrists so red."

Hearing this, Shen Xi suddenly realized, "That's right."

Immediately, he remembered the weirdness of that person again, but before he could speak, there was a knock on the office door.

The voice of Liuhuo came from outside, "Xixi, there are guests looking for you downstairs."

"Looking for me?" Shen Xi glanced at Zong Ci, not understanding.

"Go and have a look first, maybe it's an old customer from before, and I only recognize you." Zong Ci got up and pulled his lover up.

Shen Xi felt that what he said made sense, "Well, you'll find out if you go down and have a look. Then I'll be leaving first, and I'll come up to you later."

"Well, go get busy."

Shen Xi didn't delay any longer, and walked towards the door.

Liu Huo was standing at the door, the two looked at each other, and walked downstairs side by side, "Who is looking for me?"

"A man in his thirties and 40s?" Liuhuo thought about it, and described it to him, "Wearing black clothes all over his body."

Hearing this description, Shen Xi felt a lump in his heart.

As a result, just as he got downstairs, he saw a visitor not far away, who was the man he bumped into by accident just now.

"Hello." Shen Xi walked over.

The man bent his mouth, "Hi, unexpectedly, we meet again."

Liu Huo at the side heard this and couldn't understand.

"Liuhuo, go get this guest a glass of water." Shen Xi said with the attitude he should have.

"Ah."

After Liuhuo left, Shen Xi hesitated and said, "... May I ask why you are looking for me?"

"I didn't expect the boss to be you, it's really a coincidence." The man said.

The round sunglasses covered his eyes, making it impossible for Shen Xi to see his true emotions.

Liuhuo brought the water up, "Hi, please drink water."

"I have something to entrust, can I talk to the boss directly?"

Liu Huo was taken aback for a moment, and then exchanged a glance with Shen Xi.

Shen Xi nodded silently.

"Of course." Liu Huo retreated without any dissatisfaction.

After Liuhuo had left, Shen Xi finally spoke again, "With all due respect, sir, do you... have any entrustment?"

The man took off his sunglasses, revealing his sharp eyes, as if he had experienced a lot of tempering, his eyes were calm, without any trace of popularity.

He took out an iron box from the handbag beside him and handed it to Shen Xi.

"This thing, I want the firm to keep it on its behalf. Of course, the remuneration is not a problem."

Shen Xi didn't agree directly, but just asked, "Can I open it and have a look?"

The man nodded calmly.

Shen Xi stretched out his hand, just as he touched the box, the coolness of iron rushed up along his fingertips.

He was secretly startled, but on the surface he opened the box calmly.

Inside is a yellow bead, the color is transparent, and there is a faint cold light around it.The most incredible thing was that Shen Xi actually smelled a strange fragrance.

Subtle, not pungent or offensive.

"I'm afraid this thing is very expensive, right?" Shen Xi closed it, and pushed the box back to the center of the table, "Why would you trust us, sir, to keep it in our office?"

"Isn't it rumored in the industry that your firm is capable of handling affairs?" The man calmly replied.

Hearing this, Shen Xi immediately understood that the person in front of him was probably not an ordinary person.

The man raised three fingers and said affirmatively, "Three days. I have something to do these few days, so it's not convenient to carry it with me. I only entrust the office to keep it for three days."

Shen Xi secretly observed the man's emotions, and found that his expression was natural, not malicious.

"Boss Shen won't doubt me just because of the coincidence just now, will he?" The man smiled, his voice was hoarse, but it implied charm, "To be honest, I originally came to find the office today, but it's a pity that I didn't find it for a while. You are on the right road, so I happened to run into you."

"If Boss Shen is unwilling to accept this commission, then I have no choice but to find someone else."

Seeing that his demeanor and deeds were always normal, Shen Xi felt that he was a little deliberate.

"This entrustment can be accepted, but this gentleman needs to give me a series of documents for registration. In addition, a contract needs to be drawn up."

"Of course no problem." The man nodded calmly, and took out a few documents from his handbag.

After Shen Xi took it, he took a closer look.An unusual name, Chen Yifeng.

"Hold on."

"it is good."

Shen Xi went out and asked Liu Huo to enter all these documents into the registration system of the Monster Bureau, and the information was compared one by one.

It looks like it's all real.

Shen Xi's restless mind was mostly calmed down. He walked back and worked hard for half an hour before signing the contract with Chen Yifeng in detail.

After the man left, Shen Xi walked out holding the iron box.

"Liu Huo, pay attention to the safe these two days." Shen Xi opened the iron box and took another look.After smelling that strange fragrance, I always feel a little uneasy.

If this thing is lost, I'm afraid he alone can't afford it.

"Okay. This safe is only your fingerprint and password, and no one else can steal it."

Liuhuo looked through the contract and felt that the custody fee was expensive.

"En." Shen Xi put the iron box in, and after confirming that the safe was locked, he heaved a sigh of relief.

***

Probably thanks to the detective agency's blessing, others just looked at the majestic building and found it reliable.

In addition, before and after, Shen Xi, Le Chaoyang and Liu Huo were reliable in their work, and the business of the firm was more than a little better.

Shen Xi and Liu Huo were busy until they got off work, so they were free.

"worn out!"

He drank a glass of water in a hurry, and poured another glass for Shen Xi, "You don't know how tired you are, I was too busy by myself some time ago."

"I'm going to give you a raise." Shen Xi stretched, took the water glass, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Liu Huo packed up his things, "Are you going upstairs to find Team Zong?"

Shen Xi nodded.

"Then I'll go first." Liu Huo put his backpack on his back, and before he could move, there was a sound of footsteps at the door.

"Hey, Ju Fu?" Liu Huo asked in surprise.

When Shen Xi heard this, she immediately stood up.Fu Shenglin, who hadn't seen him for a long time, was striding in, while Shen Xi and Liu Huo walked out quickly.

"Fu Ju, why are you here?" Liuhuo was puzzled.

A trace of worry flashed across Shen Xi's face, and he asked cautiously, "Fu Ju, isn't there another case?"

Fu Shenglin looked serious, nodded with a sigh.

Shen Xi and Liu Huo looked at each other, they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

I am most afraid that the case will appear suddenly.

"No way... I haven't had my birthday for a few days yet." Although Shen Xi complained, he quickly ran upstairs to shout Zongci.

Liu Huo asked Fu Chenglin to sit down, and within a minute, Shen Xi and Zong Ci walked down together.

"What's going on?" Zong Ci was not polite, and asked straight to the point.

Fu Chenglin didn't talk nonsense and spoke directly.

"There have recently been fifteen cases of abnormal brain death in Jindu, all of whom are healthy citizens in their 30s and [-]s."
