Chapter 6: Wherever you live, there are ghosts; wherever you go, you'll encounter ghosts.

  I tilted my head back and downed the whole cup of white wine in one gulp, only then did I feel much more comfortable. Suddenly, a "bang bang" knocking sound came from outside the door, and with just a thought, I knew it was Tian Ji.

  This girl just finished doing something with that fox spirit Xiao Cui and came to visit, it's really unlucky. However, I wanted to see Xiao Cui, not Tian Ji's cheap woman.

  I flung open the door with a loud creak and Tiantian almost tumbled in.

  "Hey, bro, have you gone crazy? You're opening the door in such a rush, are you trying to reincarnate or something?"

  This guy's temper is still quite big. I didn't scold him and that's already being good to him, but he started scolding people instead.

  "We were standing firmly in the field when he said: 'What the...! You just gave it to the fox spirit, didn't you?! The noise was so loud, like you wanted everyone to hear or something!'"

  Under the candlelight, Tianji's face turned slightly red as he said with embarrassment: "Brother, how long have you been back? Did you hear everything?"

  I coldly snorted: "The whole process was heard, you two shameless and despicable things. I didn't expect that you little brat's function is quite strong, one play is half an hour..."

  The paddy field frog was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Brother, you misunderstood, I and Little Cui are not in that, but..."

  I interrupted him and said: "And what? But baby, are you comfortable? Yeah, comfortable, bro, I want more, right?"

  The pheasant's face turned bright red and said: "Brother, it's really not what you think, let me tell you, things are like this..."

  I recall that I was feeling suffocated just now, all thanks to this cheap woman Bai Tianji and Xiao Cui. She interrupted him rudely: "What's the situation, do you still want to tell me every detail...".

  "Shen Shangyu, are you going to listen to me clearly or not?" Tian Ji suddenly roared.

  This girl's loud cry was really loud, and I reckon the whole mountain villa could hear it on this quiet night.

  I softened up and admitted defeat in front of Tianji for the first time in my life. I looked at him and said softly, "Screw it! If you have something to say, just say it, why yell?"

  The rooster calmed down, seeing that I didn't get angry, and seemed to be puzzled. He closed the door, poured himself a glass of brandy, gulped it down in one go, looked at me quietly with his eyes, and moved his middle finger and index finger towards me twice. I understood this gesture, he was asking if I wanted to smoke.

  I hastily lit a cigarette and handed it over. Tian Ji took two puffs and said, "Brothers, don't blame me for losing my temper earlier. I actually did something good for you guys. So drinking your wine and smoking your cigarettes is what you should be doing."

  What he said has left me bewildered. What good can he possibly do for me? Not causing trouble is already a blessing.

  I don't dare mention him again, afraid that he will shout loudly. He asked: "You bastard, speak quickly, don't play dumb with me!"

  The frog sat down on my bed, flicked his cigarette ash, and said with a smile: "Let me make one thing clear to you. It's not what you think between me and that little Cui. Tonight when it got dark, she came up to deliver candles to me, but accidentally twisted her waist and couldn't get up from the pain. As you know, my hands are magical for healing, so I gave her a massage and cured her waist pain."

  I still don't understand, Tianji said that he cured the waist pain of the little fox spirit Xiao Cui, and what did he do for me? I coldly said: "You haven't taken advantage of others, have you?"

  The frog replied: "Apart from taking advantage of her acupuncture points, I really haven't taken advantage of her! It's not that I don't want to, but I dare not!"

  "Why are you afraid? Are you worried that others will blackmail you?" I said in a bad temper.

  The pheasant "heh heh" laughed and said in a low voice: "Brother, you really think I'm a fool? I've seen through it long ago. You came to the Black Spring Villa, not to enjoy the scenery, but to solve a case..."

  As soon as the pheasant spoke, I let out a hiss and stopped him, pointing to the ceiling of the house and the top of our heads, indicating that he should be quiet.

  The pheasant whispered in my ear, "Brother, you know what I found out for you guys? I made a great contribution!"

  I hastily gestured to Tianji to continue. Tianji continued in a hushed tone, "Do you know why the Black Spring Manor is deserted except for us? Xiaocui told me that the night before last, after one o'clock, a guest who was staying here got up to look at the moon and saw a ghostly shadow... He was so scared that he left immediately. The other guests found out and left the manor in droves yesterday... This place is haunted, you know?"

  When it comes to ghost words, Tian Ji's body trembled slightly, and I analyzed that he was scared by Shen Ye and Ruo Wu's ghost.

  The night before last? After twelve o'clock? My heart skipped a beat, wasn't this the time when Liu Xiao'er was kidnapped? It seems that Hei Quan Mountain Villa is not ordinary after all!

  I asked in a low voice: "Did Xiaocui say anything else to you?"

  Pheasant replied: "That's all, actually Xiaocui also only knew about these things after being startled awake."

  "Do you believe this mansion is haunted?" I asked Tianji.

  The paddy bird shook its head and replied: "I don't know. However, I knew you would definitely want to know about this matter, so I asked Xiao Cui!"

  The son of a bitch is indeed a graduate of the Criminal Police Academy, and his mind is really clear. Guan Tingting gave me such a difficult task, and he actually helped me complete it.

  So, one thing is certain: Hei Quan Manor and Liu Xia'er's disappearance are definitely related!

  If we knew what was going on that night, things would be clear.

  I patted Tianji's shoulder and gave him a thumbs up. Tianji's green bean-like eyes narrowed into a smile, and he suddenly shouted loudly: "Brothers, pour me a drink!"

  I was startled and heard someone knocking on the door outside. I didn't even hear this knock, but Tianji did, and I secretly admired him for it.

  I opened the door and it was Xiao Cui.

  Xiao Cui held a tray in her hand, with several delicate dishes on it. She smiled and said: "Sorry to disturb you, sir. This midnight snack is an invitation for Master Tian Xiao, and he instructed me to deliver it to your room. Thanks to Master Tian Xiao's treatment, my waist is healed today. You two enjoy your meal slowly, I'll leave now..." After finishing speaking, she placed the tray on the tea table in the room.

  Xiao Cui was about to leave when I saw her gazing at Tian Ji with eyes full of affection. This little fox spirit has taken a liking to Tian Ji in the blink of an eye. I'm not jealous, but rather relieved - this way she won't come bother me again.

  The frog sat on the bed with a silly smile, its expression seeming to tell me that my frog wasn't just eating for free either, and was still useful at critical moments.

  This kid! I shook my head and smiled, opened the cap of the wine bottle, just about to pour a drink, suddenly remembered Guan Tingting and Lin Jie.

  I asked Tianji: "Do you want to call Guan Tingting and Lin Jie over for a midnight snack?"

  Tian Ji replied: "Ting Ting can come, but Lin Jie is not allowed!"

  "This kid really values romance over friendship. I had no choice but to say: 'Forget it, let's not call them, just the two of us will have a midnight snack...'"

  The pheasant nodded: "It's okay, so I won't get annoyed every time I see that kid Lin Jie!"

  I chuckled and said: "You two, you're just like each other! Why would he be looking at you and not get angry?"

  The paddy field frog scratched his head and said, "Well, it's still good that we're brothers!"

  I chatted with Tianji while drinking, and in about half an hour, we finished the midnight snack sent by Xiao Cui. I remembered that I still had a task tomorrow, so I needed to rest early and said to Tianji: "Go to bed early, we have to go out for a shoot tomorrow!"

  The frog nodded and returned to his own room.

  I lay in bed, looked at my phone, and it was already past 10 pm. I thought of Qin Su'er. This girl should have finished work and returned to her rental house long ago. I don't know if she saw the message I sent her, why didn't she even respond?

  I was just thinking of this girl, and then the ringtone of the mobile phone message sounded, and it really was a message from Qin Su'er.

  "Yu Ge, I've been busy with rehearsals and performances all day and just got back home after work. Don't worry about me, take care of yourself while investigating, be safe. Su Er, missing you."

  It seems that this girl really likes me, and she actually calls the rental house at the foot of Mei Mountain home. I'm a bit touched.

  "Suer, don't worry, I'll be careful. I'll be back in a week, take care of yourself!"

  Qin Su'er didn't reply to my message again, probably busy washing up and resting. As I thought about it, drowsiness hit me, and I fell asleep in a daze.

  In a daze, I seemed to feel that there was a figure appearing beside my bed. I struggled to open my eyes and take a look, and it turned out to be Qin Suer! How is this possible? How did she end up here?

  I was startled and asked: "Su Er, is it really you?"

  That figure trembled slightly and said coldly: "You've mistaken me for someone else, I'm Yu'er, Su'er's younger sister!"

  I was even more shocked and asked: "Are you Qin Yuer? What are you doing here?"

  Qin Yuer smiled wryly: "Yu Ge, I'm calling you this way, you don't mind, do you? It's been over a year since I died, and the murderer who killed me is still at large, I'm not reconciled..."

  I remembered that she had once climbed onto Gu Tingting's body, and people and ghosts are different paths. Although I knew clearly that she wouldn't harm me, I still felt a little scared. I said: "This matter is being investigated, and we will soon have some leads. You don't need to appear here, just go back where you came from..."

  Qin Yuer turned around, softly sighing: "Yu Ge, rest assured, I won't harm you. I came here tonight just to tell you all to closely monitor the movements of Li Datou from Hei Quan Manor and that odd-job worker A San, remember? I'm leaving..."

  As soon as Qin Yuer's voice fell, a gust of dark wind swept through the room, and her figure vanished in an instant.

  I was frightened out of a cold sweat, and for a moment, I could move my hands and feet.

  Damn it, all because of that cursed crow's mouth! It's really true that wherever you live, there are ghosts, and wherever you go, you'll encounter them!
