[Stay location: Central Hotel]
Feng Yan and Liu Zheng were both a little surprised after reading Xue Chaojiang's introduction. They didn't expect that a person who is about to die can be regarded as a ghost indicator, which means that they have to wait until the old man dies before his ghost can be captured.
Liu Zheng said: "It reminds me of the joke about buying fish: A certain brother likes to eat fish. The fish in the supermarket is 9 yuan a pound. If it is dead and put on ice, it is 7 yuan for two fish. It is just as fresh. A certain brother has to hurry up after work. I ran to buy it, but it was often bought by others. A certain brother would stand in front of the fish tank and wait, and sometimes not a single fish would die for a long time. A certain brother would go in with a net to catch the fish and knock the fish's head with his handle. The waiter couldn't stand it anymore. , come over and tell the brother: Sir, those who fainted are not counted... Hahahahahahahahaha! Ha~ha~"
At the end of the laugh, Liu Zheng looked at Feng Yan looking at him expressionlessly, and said awkwardly: "Isn't it funny?"
Feng Yan: "Do you think it's funny to joke about a hundred-year-old good man and a fish? Is there an inevitable connection between the two? Is it consistent with our identity as a ghost?"
Liu Zheng said with some shame: "That's not what I meant, just to liven up the atmosphere."
Feng Yan: "Nonsense. This is an unorganized and undisciplined behavior. It is a blasphemy against the reputation of the organization. You, a little comrade, usually speak freely and have no ideological consciousness at all..."
Liu Zheng quickly interrupted: "Okay, okay, just pretend. Don't rise to the level of a national organization. Let's quickly analyze the plot."
Feng Yan nodded: "Okay."
"The information currently provided by the Book of Life and Death, although it seems simple, is very informative. It has even helped us solve a key problem that we have been unable to find a breakthrough for."
Liu Zheng nodded: "How to kill the red-haired evil spirit and collect the complete soul of Ye Fei."
Feng Yan snapped his fingers and said: "Yes, the description of Uncle Xue's characteristics has been clearly written in the book of life and death. Once he dies, he will become a good soul that is rare to see in a hundred years. In the introduction of his characteristics, and The ones in the stone are similar, they are all good souls, but Uncle Xue has the word "hundred years" added, which is a rare encounter in a hundred years. When we were interrogating the two ghosts on the mountain, one of them said that if another ghost appears, A good soul like Shi Fang, a red-haired evil spirit, will definitely go out in person. The reason is that the mission to capture Shi Fang failed. He missed such a rare good soul, so he will never let go of the next one, let alone the next one. It is said that a more powerful good soul like Uncle Xue appears now, so I predict that the red-haired evil spirit will definitely appear tonight, and even... has already stepped on it in advance."
Liu Zheng pushed up his glasses: "The basis for this sentence is probably the reminder from the book of life and death that many forces are keeping a close eye on it."
Feng Yan nodded: "Yes, this reminder clearly tells us that some people must have known about Uncle Xue's death tonight. We don't know what kind of force they are yet, but it is certain. Yes, they are incompetent or dare not or are taboo, or they must wait until Uncle Xue dies at a specific time tonight before they can take action. So I say that the red-haired evil spirit is likely to have stepped on this theory. It can be tolerated, and other forces are probably the same as the red-haired evil spirit. It seems that tonight is a battle between dragons and tigers, with only one goal, to take down Uncle Xue’s spirit body."
After hearing this, Liu Zheng said: "It's still relatively early now. Since Uncle Xue is hosting a birthday dinner tonight, and we know the location, why not go over and explore now and collect as much information as possible. Uncle Xue's ghost may not be that big." It’s easy to get, not to mention that he may still have a wish that we need to fulfill. Just thinking about it gives me a headache, there are so many different forces.”
Feng Yan and Liu Zheng had just left Sanyuan Group while talking. At this time, the two of them had taken the elevator to the first floor. He walked towards the door and replied: "Don't make things so complicated. Everything will wait until we get to the center." After exploring the hotel slowly, there is a high probability that clues and information will come to your door automatically. There is no need to search for it deliberately. This is just a game. You have to have an entertainment mentality. Now let’s find a pawn shop first.”
After Feng Yan asked the security guard at the door where the nearest pawn shop was, he walked away in the direction pointed by the security guard.
Liu Zheng followed up and said, "Why are you looking for a pawnshop?"
Feng Yan took out a watch from his arms and said: "I just took it out of Xiaoqian's cardboard box. I should be able to get a lot of money if I pawn it. Are you kidding me? We don't know where the Central Hotel is. Even if we ask Passers-by, what if it’s far away? We don’t even have money to take the subway. It’s a waste of time to walk there with our legs. How can we collect information in advance?”
Liu Zheng said with a dark head: "You are really messing around. You dare to obey the things of dead people and such a vicious female ghost. Aren't you afraid of psychological shadow?"
Feng Yan: "I won't keep it for myself. I will sell it to a pawn shop later. The female ghost will go to whoever she likes."
After walking for a while, the two of them came to the pawn shop pointed out by the security guard. Xiaoqian's watch was very valuable and in very new condition. The pawn shop owner offered a price of 20,000 yuan. Feng Yan didn't know much about watches, but the owner's sharp mouth and monkey cheeks made him extremely nervous. Pretending to be greedy and serious, he knew that the original price of this watch was probably more than 100,000 yuan, but he was too lazy to bargain with the boss. 20,000 yuan would definitely be enough to cover all the expenses for the next copy, and it would not even be needed. Rich.
"It's so easy to make money from dead people. No wonder tomb robbers are so rampant. This can be considered a disguised form of tomb robbery." Feng Yan took the 20,000 yuan in his hand and waved it to Liu Zheng proudly.
Liu Zheng said with disdain: "Let's go quickly, time is limited."
Feng Yan's inner pocket already contained a lot of things, including a book of life and death and a ballpoint pen. In order to save space in his luggage, he even put the Beidi Magic Talisman in his pocket, so the 20,000 yuan was placed in Liu Zheng's inner pocket. bingo.
As soon as he got the money, Liu Zheng felt inexplicably confident. He stood on the roadside and waved and shouted: "Taxi!"
Feng Yan looked at his appearance and said amusedly: "The sugar-coated bullets of capitalism are not bad."
Liu Zheng patted his chest and said two words: "Be steady!"
After getting on the bus, Liu Zheng told the driver about the destination and asked about the distance. The driver said that it would take about twenty minutes if there was no traffic jam. Liu Zheng gave Feng Yan a thumbs up, which meant that it was good that you got some money. , it takes more than 20 minutes to drive and more than an hour to walk.
After getting off the bus, Liu Zheng gave him a 100 note and said there was no need to look for it. With the driver's admiring and slightly silly eyes, he walked into the Central Hotel with Feng Yan.
As soon as they entered the hotel lobby, Feng Yan and Liu Zheng felt several fierce auras at the same time, and they calmly came to the fish tank at the corner of the lobby.
Liu Zheng: "What's going on? A temporary buff imposed on us by the system?"
Feng Yan: "It is very possible that we can feel three breaths now, and we are very sure that these three breaths are the breath of ghosts. We can even feel the position of the breath. This should be because we want to fight Mr. Xue tonight. There are many people with ideas, and our identity can be seen through by ghosts at a glance, so the system temporarily gives us the ability so that we can avoid meeting ghosts and exposing our identities prematurely. The system recommends us It’s a game where the oriole comes last.”
Liu Zheng: "It seems that's about it. Judging from the current perception, these three auras seem to be somewhere high on the floor. Let's move around the hall first. There should be no problem."
Feng Yan nodded, agreeing with Liu Zheng's statement.
The Central Hotel is very large, a five-star hotel. When the two of them came in from the outside, they visually inspected that the total floor height was about 40 floors. Ghosts couldn't sense their aura anyway, so as long as they didn't meet each other, they would be there. It doesn’t matter how you move.
There is a large notice board on the side of the hall: Warmly celebrating Mr. Xue Chaojiang’s 100th birthday. The birthday banquet hall is located on the entire second floor.
Liu Zheng: "The venue is big enough. There can be at least a few hundred tables on the second floor. The entire floor has been demolished."
Feng Yan looked around and said to Liu Zheng, "Who should we talk to?" Just as he was talking, Feng Yan saw an aunt mopping the floor beside him, so he snapped his fingers and said, "Yes."
"Auntie, where are you mopping the floor?" Feng Yan said with a smile.
The aunt raised her head and said, "What do you two gentlemen want?"
Feng Yan pointed to the sign next to him and said, "Is Mr. Xue's birthday banquet on the second floor?"
The aunt scratched her head and said, "Aren't you blind? If you have anything to say, just tell me. Why go around in circles?"
