Xiao Ming played very attentively. After Erha left, he still looked at the cards in his hand intently.
After a few games, some lose and some win.
Not completely crushed.
Of course, Xiaobai is also used to letting things go. The little poor kid doesn't dare to win all the time, otherwise, people won't take him with them when they play poker.
However, even if Xiaobai is not brought along, and only Xiaohong and Xiaoming are played, Xiaoming does not win often, and most of the time he is taken flying.
Later, with Erha, things got much better.
However, now that there is no Erha, it seems to be good.
"Okay, Erha, let's go play!" Lin Luo smiled and said softly.
Erha "chirped" at Lin Luo in confusion, then returned to the window sill and acted as a little intelligence agent.
Lin Luo was worried about Gu Pei and went to the living room to look again. Gu Pei still didn't come out.
Zhang Jun woke up.
Today, Zhang Jun is no longer fragile. Although he is very thin, he is in good spirits and looks more handsome than before.
Seeing Lin Luo coming out, Zhang Jun smiled: "Please sit down and eat some fruit."
Speaking of fruits, Lin Luo thought of something and went to the kitchen to wash some squid and bring them out.
"What is this?" Zhang Jun asked, picking up one and looking at it carefully, obviously he had never seen it before.
Just as Lin Luo was about to answer, Wen Xu came out of the bedroom and was stunned for a moment when she saw what Zhang Jun was holding.
"Where did Shatang come from?" Wen Xu asked.
"I bought it a few days ago." Lin Luo told her about her encounter with the old lady that day and asked again. "How do you know me?"
A trace of confusion flashed in Wen Xu's eyes and he shook his head.
"I don't know either." Wen Xu said. "Maybe I've seen it before?"
"How is that possible!" Zhang Jun felt that Wen Xu was bragging. "I've never seen it. You must have accidentally searched it online."
"That's not necessarily the case." Wen Xu said. "Maybe I'm not a painting!"
Zhang Juncai didn't listen to Wen Xu's nonsense and turned to look at Lin Luo.
"The two people last night said that they had never seen the boss behind the scenes. They usually followed a person named 'Brother Cheng', acting as a thug. Moreover, they didn't seem to know that what came out was just the soul." Zhang Jun said . "Gu Pei said he wanted to follow them and take a look. He shouldn't be in the bedroom."
"I thought she just followed her soul."
Lin Luo stood up, walked to the bedroom where Gu Pei slept, and gently opened the bedroom door. As expected, she didn't see Gu Pei.
Lin Luo closed the door and sat back on the sofa.
"What should we do next?" Lin Luo asked.
"Let's wait until Gu Pei comes back." Zhang Jun replied. "If we can't find the person who stole the soul, we don't know how many people will suffer."
Lin Luo nodded, stood up, and went to the kitchen.
After eating two takeaway meals, it was time to make something to eat.
The thing is, she doesn't want glitter in the living room.
Lin Luo cooked four dishes, a combination of hot and cold meat and vegetables, and also cooked chicken soup.
After everything was done, Lin Luo invited everyone to eat and then went to the small bedroom to take a look. Gu Pei hadn't come back yet.
"Let's eat first!" Lin Luo said.
Several people were eating when Lin Luo suddenly heard a knock on the door. He quickly put down his chopsticks and walked out of the restaurant. Sure enough, he saw Gu Pei walking out of the bedroom.
Yes, not outside the door, but in the bedroom.
"Back." Lin Luo smiled. "When I asked you to eat just now, you weren't there yet."
"Back." Gu Pei replied, with a hint of tiredness on his face.
This was the first time Lin Luo saw fatigue on Gu Pei's face. Gu Pei before seemed as if she was tired.
"Eat something first." Zhang Jun and Wen Xu also came to the living room.
"I just drank the nutrient solution, you guys can eat it," Gu Pei said.
Several people were worried about whether the two people Gu Pei was following had discovered something. They returned to the restaurant, ate a few hasty bites, and came to the living room without even washing the dishes.
The four children also moved small benches and sat around the coffee table, looking like they were about to have a meeting.
"I found the person who can steal souls, his name is Zuo Chen." Gu Pei first told the result to save everyone from worrying. "He is the only one who knows how to do it, and he works alone. The four of them yesterday were thugs who specialize in dealing with people like Lao Zhang who are looking for souls. They are Brother Cheng's people. There should be two more people in Beichen who have also been I’m helping people find their souls earlier than Lao Zhang.”
"Did Zuo Chen start stealing other people's souls very early on?" Lin Luo asked. "Who are those people who need souls?"
"Two or three years ago!" Gu Pei said. "Those who need souls, except Ling Yun, are all those who are unwilling to reincarnate after death. Ling Yun is the only one who wants to increase his life."
"People need to have three souls and seven souls." Lao Zhang said. "To reshape a person, how many people have to be injured until their souls are broken. This is so wicked!"
"The main thing is that refusing to reincarnate after death will also disrupt the order." Wen Xu responded.
"Are those thugs ordinary people?" Lin Luo asked again.
"They are all ordinary people, including that Brother Cheng." Gu Pei said. "Zuo Chen offered them a very high price. Moreover, the rest of the people were not assigned by Zuo Chen. Zuo Chen only contacted Brother Cheng. I only saw Zuo Chen after following Brother Cheng. They are dead There are two of us, of course Brother Cheng wants to find Zuo Chen."
"Are those two people really dead?" Lin Luo asked.
"The soul is gone, only the body is left, which is no different from death. Brother Cheng asked Zuo Chen to resurrect those two people, otherwise he would have to pay a large amount of compensation."
"Resurrection? Doesn't that mean someone will be harmed again?" Wen Xu asked.
"Zuo Chen didn't agree and chose to compensate." Gu Pei said. "Because he resurrected a rich man and made more money than compensating these two."
"Zuo Chen's main purpose is to make money?" Lin Luo asked.
"Not sure." Gu Pei said. "Zuo Chen usually pays great attention to privacy. The place where he lives is always notified to Brother Cheng at short notice. I heard Brother Cheng curse and say that he has changed his place again. He should change it frequently."
"In other words, if we go now, we may not be able to find Zuo Chen?" Zhang Jun asked.
Gu Pei nodded first, then shook his head and smiled.
"Go now, you can find it. I drew a locator on him, which is valid for three days. But, do you want to take the risk? I don't know if he has any powers."
"He didn't." Xiaobai responded. "Stealing souls is his only superpower. Otherwise, he would not change places at any time. He is afraid that his whereabouts will be discovered by others. However, although he does not have superpowers, he may have weapons."
"Take a risk!" Lin Luo said. "We go directly to him to avoid the thugs and save some energy."
"Those thugs were not responsible for protecting him, they were only responsible for preventing others from retrieving their souls," Gu Pei said. "However, they don't know it themselves. They just think they are responsible for arresting and beating people."
"When are we going to find her?" Zhang Jun asked.
Lin Luo and Gu Pei looked at each other and smiled.
"It's not us, it's me and Gu Pei." Lin Luo said. "If we can succeed in one fell swoop, you will be responsible for the rest. See if you can try to find the souls of those who lost their souls."
