Daily life of civil servants in the prefectural government

After dealing with the things in hand, everyone went back to their respective homes.Su Xiyan and the others didn't stay in the hot spring villa too much, as long as they enjoy it, the gold and silver nests are still not as good as their own kennels, and no matter how comfortable they are outside, they are still not as comfortable as their own rooms.

Cui Zhao and Su Xiyan hurried back with their suitcases. Before the key was opened, a familiar smiling face appeared from inside.

"Third, are you back from vacation? It just so happens that the two of us are about to finish cleaning, so we're going to have a meal together?"

He Han, wearing a small pointed hat with newspapers on his head and a broom in his hand, came out graciously to help carry everything in the suitcase.

The floor of the living room has been mopped to a bare surface, and No. [-] is diligently washing the rags on the balcony. It seems that the cleaning is basically completed.

Su Xiyan and the old man walking around in the morning seemed to walk back and forth with their hands behind their backs.

"Go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, why did He Shao suddenly come to work with me?"

"Hey, I'm asking for something. I need to give you some favorability in advance." He Han patted No. [-]'s arm with a smile, "Can you rent my bodyguard for a while longer?"

"To whom?"

"My little uncle."

"Okay, take it away." Su Xiyan readily agreed.

During this period of time, he had more contact with the government, and some news automatically flowed to him.He also knows a little bit about the situation of the He family. He Han's father is the most outstanding uncle in his generation. However, he has already become the governor of a province in his [-]s.

He Han wanted No. [-] to protect him, and it seemed that there was something sinister about it.With the strength of No. [-], Su Xiyan is not worried about him.

"Good brother." He Han gave a thumbs up, "Let's go, Tianhaixuan box, I invite you to eat whatever you want today."

"So generous?"

"That's right, it's easy to speak at the wine table. I don't have anything else to say."

"I knew your kid's food was not good." Su Xiyan Xiang pointed at He Han angrily, and as soon as the things were put away, the few of them went out without hesitation.

King crab, pork knuckle, abalone and sea cucumber soup...

Halfway through the meal, He Han finally opened his mouth in response to the heat rising from the table.

"Have you checked Weibo, have you noticed that a lot has happened during this period?"

Su Xiyan put down her chopsticks: "What's the matter?"

He Han smiled wryly: "Student suicides, this kind of thing sounds common, it seems to happen every once in a while, but in fact it is also under control, but recently it has happened in my little uncle's jurisdiction There were five suicides."

"In half a month, there were five cases. All of them were students. The youngest was only 14 years old, and the oldest was 16 years old."

Cui Zhao frowned, "This death rate is a bit too high, it's not normal."

"It's really not normal." Five of them died within half a month, and all of them committed suicide in the same place and for almost the same reason.Such a high frequency of deaths has attracted police investigations, and it was only after an investigation that a bigger mystery was discovered.

He Han: "I've looked through the five cases. The students who died inexplicably became very irritable within half a month before committing suicide. They had several quarrels with their family members, and they all joined a reading club."

A book club generally refers to an organization where a group of people gather to read books and exchange ideas. This kind of organization among students is closer to exchanging homework problems and inner questions.

Because of the convenience of the Internet society, this kind of reading society now exists more on the Internet, making friends with people from all over the world, and at the same time, you don’t have to worry about being recognized as who you are when you complain about your heart.

This may seem like a wholesome organization, but people with good intentions use it for other things.The students whose three views are not yet stable and who are in the second term of middle school are the most easily provoked group.

He Han took out a folder: "Here are the detailed files of student accidents in other provinces collected by my uncle, and they also participated in the reading club in the records."

When I turned to the bottom few pages, there appeared a few posters with slogans, a row of bookshelves printed on them, and a desk, which seemed to be full of people, each of them holding a book.He didn't show his face, just holding the books. At first glance, there was a strong sense of book fragrance. It seemed to be just an ordinary publicity picture, but after a long time, he felt a little strange, and the posture of the dozen or so hands was too It's a bit neater, as if it's been measured with a ruler, even the angles are exactly the same...

"This reading club has always been very low-key. Except for these few promotional pictures, there is no unnecessary news. There are only corresponding membership requirements and methods in places such as Tieba Weibo. All members of the reading club need to pass the assessment before entering , Only after passing the assessment can you become a full-fledged member, and [-]% of those full-fledged members haven't used communication tools for a long time."

"We investigated through the real-name system and found that they are basically the students who committed suicide."

Su Xiyan: "That means this organization is luring those students to commit suicide?"

"Yes, and I suspect that their purpose is more than that, because I found a promotion for recruiting members that they posted on the post bar a few days ago." Zhang Han looked heavy.

After graduating, he worked as a chore with his family. Only then did he see more things in the world. Some things he couldn't manage even if he wanted to, but there were places where he could find a way to help.

Cui Zhao: "You are looking for us, you want us to help?"

He took the folder and turned to the last few pages of the promotional pages, his fingers resting on the innermost pair of hands.

"It's not that someone is making trouble. I'm afraid the person who caused the trouble is not a human being. Look here..."

Su Xiyan looked over, and there was a thin silk thread faintly hanging on the hands that were almost hidden in the darkness. The silk thread was too thin and vague, and at a glance, he thought it was a crease on the paper.

"Huh, is this?"

Cui Zhao: "Look up their names. It is estimated that no ghost messenger can receive their souls. Their ghosts must have been taken away somewhere."

He reached out and tapped the table, pondered for a while, and asked He Han, "Have you found out the specific location?"

He Han was taken aback, and Su Xiyan told him about the scope of responsibility in a low voice.He and Cui Zhao's main responsibilities are still responsible for those mutated things, not for the extradition of dead souls, nor for helping to investigate cases.It's okay to hit the upper tube and get involved. If there is no specific place like what He Han proposed this time, it will be a ghost disappearance case for the underworld.

They will send another ghost messenger to solve this problem. If Su Xiyan and the others intervene, it will be a bit of a cross-border management.

What Su Xiyan wanted was to live in harmony with his colleagues and not rush to work.What Cui Zhao thought was that they couldn't get jobs everywhere, otherwise they would directly increase the workload and not give them a raise, which would be miserable.

After so much time and experience, He Han is no longer that rookie in the workplace, and immediately understood what Su Xiyan meant.He rummaged through the materials he brought, and found a notebook with handwritten records.

"This is the information I collected myself. The book club is basically an online event, and the only place where an offline event is held is in City C."

Su Xiyan: "Is it your little uncle's jurisdiction?"

"Yes," He Han nodded, "The place where they met was in an abandoned school on the outskirts of City C, because the place is far away and the house is almost demolished, basically no one will go there. "

"When this address was first published, many people complained about it, thinking that the person who reported the offline activity was crazy, and then there was no news. Most people thought that this activity had disappeared and was shelved. But I I think some people should have gone to this event."

Su Xiyan: "Why?"

He Han opened the profile of one of the five students who committed suicide in front, it was a little girl with a ponytail.

"Her name is Xiao Wei, and her online name is [Little Butterfly Can't Fly]. I read some of the records on the post bar at that time. This little butterfly failed in the assessment to enter the reading club, but she is very interested in this The organization is still very curious, wants to join, and wants to apply for re-examination many times."

"After the assessment of this study club fails, it will take two months to reassess. Logically speaking, she should be assessed after two months, but she entered the study club directly after that offline event. I saw that it was mentioned on her chat software, that she met someone she really wanted to see that day and so on."

"So I judge that this offline activity is established, and this abandoned school may be their base camp."

Cui Zhao: "Are you sure? If we run empty, we won't help anymore."

"Should be," He Han nodded, "I know they will find other people to investigate this matter together, but for me, I think you are much better than them."

That's why he tried his best to persuade his uncle, and ran over to ask Su Xiyan and the others for help.

"Then it's settled." Su Xiyan made a final decision.

While they were talking, the meals on the table had already been served, and some of them were already a little cold.Su Xiyan pretended to be disgusted and said that He Han said this kind of thing at the dinner table just to make him eat badly, and then ordered a few more dishes.

He Han begged for mercy, and generously followed up with additional dishes, and later handed over to No. [-] what he couldn't finish.With him in charge of liquidation, there is no need to worry about any waste.

A few of them are not drinkers, they all order juices and the like, and when they go back, everyone goes to their respective houses, not afraid of delaying things at all.

Seeing No. [-], Su Xiyan yelled goodbye to the master and then naturally followed He Han to leave, and laughed and scolded him as an unfilial son, only remembering that He Han didn't remember him.

When he got off the taxi and returned home, he realized that Cui Zhao's expression was wrong. Why did he look so stern as if he was very angry?

Su Xiyan: "What's wrong with you, today's food is not to your liking?"

Cui Zhao raised his eyes, the unhappiness in his heart was clearly written on his face. "I don't have that kind of doll son!"

Su Xiyan: ...

He couldn't laugh or cry, this man always liked to take such jokes to heart.After coaxing for a long time, Cui Zhao was finally made happy.Then Uncle Cat sneaked him into the room and took out something from his pocket.

"The Wan Yao Banner?"

A tattered little flag, with a thick layer of rust on the pole.

Su Xiyan: "Where did you get this thing?" Recently, there are no special events to get the Wan Yao Banner, and there is no place where Cui Zhao left the team, except...

Su Xiyan suddenly realized, "Scallop essence? Where did you get it?"

"That's right," Cui Zhao grinned proudly. "The scallop spirit picked it up from the sea. He swallowed it like a stone, but it stuck in his flesh. If it's a few years later, he might just swallow it up." down."

Su Xiyan turned pale with shock: "Can he swallow it too?"

Cui Zhao: "...He can't, he just swallows dates, and he can't digest them."

Su Xiyan was silent for a moment, looking a little regretful.

Cui Zhao knew the excitement he felt when he thought he had a companion. When he lost all his clansmen, he would be excited for a while when he saw an ordinary cat demon, but gradually he understood.

After all, he and them are worlds apart.

He Han was in a hurry, he was going to leave early tomorrow morning, and the two of them went back to their room to sleep soon.

Su Xiyan flipped through Weibo before going to bed, and sure enough, she saw a lot of questions about classmates committing suicide in private messages, and several students jumped directly from the teaching building.The school couldn't hold it down, and many students were frightened.

Because they were still dealing with Wenwen's affairs before, the girl in charge of Weibo didn't tell him about it. Now that he asked about it, she told him about some things that need to be paid attention to recently.

Most of them can be directly forwarded to the police for acceptance, and they have gradually responded to the private messages. What needs his attention is only what He Han said about the book club.

This incident really caused a big commotion. When Su Xiyan and the others arrived at the abandoned school, there were already many people waiting there.He Han's little uncle invited three groups of people, Longhushan and Yushouzong, and a Taoist priest in a Taoist robe with his neck proudly held high.

Seeing Su Xiyan and the others coming, before He Han had time to say hello to his uncle, the Taoist with his head held up snorted coldly and said:

"Where did you bring this junior? Don't you feel ashamed to come here to deceive others at a young age?"
