"Ah? Mr. Bao, are you kidding me?" Bao BuTong was shocked when he heard this.
How long has it been since he joined the special department? Is he just self-reliant?
He also needs to be able to be self-reliant.
"Of course I'm not joking with you. Xiaobao, you have to believe in yourself and work hard." Ling Chong cheered.
A snow leopard cannot take care of two people at the same time, so from now on, Xiaobao has to take care of himself and not be dragged away by ghosts.
"This isn't a problem that can be solved by just refueling, right?"
Bao BuTong said speechlessly, Mr. Bao has found a new love and has forgotten the old one.
Sure enough, Mr. Bao is starting to become unreliable. It seems that he needs to improve his strength as soon as possible.
"Don't worry, Xiao Bao. I'm still here to protect you, right?" Li Ming said with a smile.
Brother Leopard is not the only one in the entire team who can protect people, he can too.
"Thank you very much, senior." After hearing this, Bao BuTong quickly expressed his gratitude.
Although the senior doesn't look very reliable, no one is looking after him, right?
After the car slowly left the special department, it headed towards its destination.
Lying on the chair, eating freeze-dried chicken and enjoying the scratching, I finally felt less sleepy.
So I started to care about this mission: "Where are we going now? Can any of you tell me about it?"
He just woke up and didn't know anything. Couldn't someone tell his team about this mission?
"This time we are going to Jinjiang Community in Dongjiang District. There is a female resident there who said that she has encountered strange things recently and wants us to investigate." said Zhao Jinghui, who was scratching Ling Chong's hair.
"What's weird?" Ling Chong asked curiously after hearing this.
"She said she could hear footsteps upstairs at home tomorrow," Zhao Jinghui said.
"Isn't this a normal thing? If there are footsteps upstairs, it must be someone walking." Ling Chong said while chewing freeze-dried chicken, feeling that there was nothing strange about this.
Isn't it normal to hear people's footsteps in a community room?
"But the problem is that she said she has never seen the residents upstairs going out or drying clothes," Zhao Jinghui said.
"Okay, that's a little weird."
Is there anyone living in the house? How could I not go out and do laundry? Could it be that the other party is so dirty?
"In addition to the sound of footsteps, the resident also reported that at around two o'clock in the morning, he heard the sound of someone burning incense and chanting sutras in the toilet."
"And in the second half of the night, she could often hear voices coming from behind the house. But when she got up and looked through the window, she found nothing." Zhao Jinghui continued.
"Well, this is a bit scary." Ling Chong couldn't help but paused after hearing this.
No wonder this requester came to them to investigate, which made him a little scared.
Although he is not a human being, he is just a snow leopard.
"So, the female resident called the department and asked us to come and take a look." Zhao Jinghui said.
"Except for this female resident, didn't the other residents discover these things?" Ling Chong asked curiously.
There can't be only one person living in a house. Didn't the female resident's neighbors notice anything unusual?
"According to the female resident, none of her neighbors noticed these things." Zhao Jinghui replied: "Because she is in an old community, all the residents are elderly people who go to bed very early, and these sounds are all It was sent out in the middle of the night.”
"Then what do you think?" Ling Chong asked while chewing on the freeze-dried chicken.
Anyway, he didn't get any useful information from these messages.
But I wonder if other people in the car discovered anything?
"The occurrence of supernatural events may be specific to a place, and some may be specific to a person. But it's hard to tell before seeing the female resident." Cao Siyang, who was sitting in Lingchong, said.
If there is a problem in the community, it stands to reason that since everyone has lived here for so long, it is impossible for only this female resident to discover it.
So there is a high probability that the female resident was entangled in something.
But he couldn't be sure until he saw the female resident with his own eyes.
"Yes, Lao Cao is right."
Li Ming, who was sitting in the passenger seat, nodded and said, "I also think that the female resident may have been entangled, because I checked the situation over there."
"I found that the community has been built for more than 20 years, which means that there has been no incident in this community for more than 20 years. It is impossible that something happened recently."
"Unless someone brings the ghost back to the community."
"Is this like this?" Ling Chong thought for a while and continued: "Then what kind of job does this person asking for help do? Or is there any kind of job that can easily attract ghosts?"
"It should be the undertaker or the cemetery inspector, right?" Bao BuTong said.
As far as he knew, these were the only two jobs where people often came into contact with the deceased, right? Although the same applies to forensic medicine and criminal police, these two jobs still seem to be inferior in comparison.
"No! These two jobs are often the least susceptible to ghosts." Upon hearing this, Cao Siyang was the first to speak.
"Uh? Why? Senior." Bao BuTong asked curiously.
"The embalmer helps the corpse deal with the last remains, which means sending the deceased on his last journey. Therefore, it is a kindness to the ghosts, and the ghosts generally will not trouble them."
"The tombkeepers who guard the cemetery guard their resting place and are kind to the ghosts. So they will not trouble the tombkeepers." Cao Siyang explained.
"So that's the truth." After hearing this, Bao BuTong felt that he gained knowledge instantly.
Zhao Jinghui and others couldn't help but remember Cao Siyang's words.
"So what kind of jobs are likely to attract ghosts?" Ling Chong asked curiously as he gnawed on freeze-dried chicken.
Since embalmers and tombkeepers are less likely to provoke ghosts? So what kind of jobs are easy to get into trouble?
"People who coincide with ghost activities are most likely to attract ghosts." Li Ming said: "For example, nightclub staff and people who serve late night snacks are more likely to encounter ghosts."
"So this female resident also works at night?" Ling Chong asked Zhao Jinghui.
"No, this female resident is a serious kindergarten teacher." Zhao Jinghui said, "Why does a kindergarten teacher need to stay so late in class?"
"Then she likes to go out at night?" Ling Chong continued to ask.
Since he doesn’t work the night shift, does the other person like to go out and play at night?
"This is her private matter, how do I know? And the information given by the minister was not written down." Zhao Jinghui said, shaking her cell phone.
"Then it looks like I have to ask." Ling Chong said after hearing this.
"Well, I think we really need to ask." Cao Siyang nodded and said, "There must be a reason for a ghost to target a person, or it might be better to tell where a person attracts the ghost."
It is impossible for a ghost to target a person for no reason, although it is a bit far-fetched to say so.
But it's just like the saying goes, "The fly doesn't bite the egg without a scratch."
Zhao Jinghui and others in the car couldn't help but nodded when they heard this, and then the car began to become quiet.
Only the sound of Ling Chong chewing the freeze-dried chicken echoed.
The black business car left the most prosperous area of Binjiang City and arrived in the somewhat old-looking Dongjiang District.
As the original place of Binjiang City, this place is no longer what it was more than ten years ago. Starting to age and decline.
Along the way, Bao BuTong discovered that more people living here were the elderly or children. Young people are rarely seen.
After the car entered Jinjiang Community, it stopped in front of the female resident's unit.
The old community more than ten years ago did not have an underground parking lot, and the design continued with greening and parking spaces located in front of the units.
There are pros and cons to this design, but in that era, there were really not many cars, so this design was just enough.
Since there were many elderly people in the community and few people drove, they easily found a parking space as soon as they entered the community.
And he arrived on the fifth floor without attracting anyone's attention.
"Unit 4, 502 is right here. Senior, do you want to knock on the door?"
Zhao Jinghui looked at the door number and said.
"Knock on the door." Cao Siyang nodded.
Zhao Jinghui did so.
Within a few seconds, clear footsteps came from behind the door.
Then the door was opened a crack.
"Are these people working in the special department?" the female resident who opened the door asked tentatively, her eyes scanning Cao Siyang and others. .
"Yes." Zhao Jinghui nodded and looked at the woman with panda eyes who was walking unsteadily in front of her.
It can be seen that the other party seems to be very tormented by the supernatural events, so he has not had a good rest.
"Great." The female resident was very happy when she heard this and quickly opened the door to let Cao Siyang and the others in.
But when he saw Ling Chong coming in with him, he was obviously stunned.
Upon seeing this, Cao Siyang opened his mouth to explain:
"This is the team leader of Brother Leopard from our special department for this mission. Although he is a snow leopard, his ability and strength are second to none in the department."
"It turns out to be Chief Leopard. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." The female resident laughed and looked at Ling Chong curiously.
This was her first time to have such close contact with a snow leopard.
"Don't get so close. I'm here to investigate the supernatural incident. I'm not here to show you." Seeing that the other party did not mention the supernatural incident and instead stared at him, Ling Chong couldn't help but said.
"This beauty, can you tell us what happened?" Li Ming asked after hearing Ling Chong's words.
"Okay, okay." After hearing this, the female resident came back to her senses and began to tell everyone what she knew.
"Are you sure there is no one upstairs?" Cao Siyang asked after hearing this.
"I can be 100% sure because I knocked on the door upstairs and asked the property owner. They all said no one lives upstairs." The female resident nodded.
"Is there a key to the property? We want to go in and take a look?" Li Ming asked.
The best way to investigate is of course to visit the site.
"No." The female resident shook her head and said, "The property in our community was moved in from behind, so there is no key to the property at all."
"Really? This is a bit difficult to handle."
Li Ming said with a headache, if not, they wouldn't be able to forcefully break into a house, right? It wouldn't sound good if it was spread like this.
"Can you contact the owner to open the door? Since there is a property in the community, then the owner must have left a contact number." Cao Siyang said.
"It's useless. I reported this to the property management. They also called, but they couldn't get through," said the female resident.
After discovering the strange footsteps coming from upstairs, she went to tell the property manager and wanted to go upstairs to take a look in person.
But the property management couldn't contact the owner, so she had to seek help from the special department.
"There's no need to go to such trouble. There are some things up there, but the problem shouldn't be serious." Ling Chong said, looking up at the ceiling.
"Brother Bao, what did you see?" Cao Siyang, who was thinking about whether to climb upstairs to investigate, said after hearing this.
