Chapter 74: Finding Clues
Since you have chosen to face it directly, you can't just wait passively for the next car accident to happen. No one knows what they are trying to do and when they will take action.
"Then how do you want to face it directly?" Seeing Tan Xuan's serious expression, Xiao Di couldn't help but interrupt his confident words.
"First, find some clues and try to find their lair." Tan Xuan slammed the steering wheel hard. He didn't care, but now that he was going to take care of it, he couldn't continue to let those evil ghosts run rampant. It was just that he had no clues now, and Tan Xuan felt a little crazy.
"Then where should we look for clues first?" Xiao Di continued to ask. If it was a normal person who committed the crime, she could still think of a way. But now it was a ghost who committed the crime, and her connections were of no use at all.
"Now that you have gotten rid of Wang Dongxue's ghost, this connection has been completely severed. Do you still want to start with Mr. Li, Li Haoran?"
After hearing Xiao Di's words, Tan Xuan, who had a gloomy face, brightened up and laughed. "Who said that the clues from Wang Dongxue are completely gone? Today I will look for some clues from Wang Dongxue."
As he said that, Tan Xuan stepped on the brakes and stopped the car on the side of the road. "That's fine. If you have nothing else, go back first. I won't be driving a car these two days. I'll go to work first."
"What?" Xiao Di's temper exploded all of a sudden, and he shouted at Tan Xuan: "Tan Xuan, you bastard, what do you mean, you're planning to tear down the bridge before we even cross the river?"
Seeing Xiao Di's expression, Tan Xuan felt a headache again and explained, "Why are you shouting? I'm doing this for your own good. It's very dangerous next. Ghosts are scarier than the criminals you saw, and they are completely inhumane. You are not suitable to participate."
"I'm not afraid." Xiao Di said angrily, "I used to get materials from others, but now I have the right materials, how can I let them go? Tan Xuan, I tell you, don't think of leaving me out of this matter, or I will never let you go."
"Hey!" His kindness was taken for granted. Tan Xuan was so angry at Xiao Di's unreasonable look that he wanted to say something unpleasant, but after a little thought, he changed his mind and said to Xiao Di, "Let me make a deal first. You can go, but you must listen to me. Otherwise, if you really encounter any danger, I can't save you. And don't record your stuff again. We are here to get rid of ghosts, not to collect materials."
"I know, I know." Xiao Di's attitude changed quickly. When he heard that Tan Xuan was taking him with him, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Then where are we going now? How do you plan to find clues from Wang Dongxue?" Xiao Di asked Tan Xuan softly.
"First, go to the dormitory where Wang Dongxue lived and find some things that Wang Dongxue used or some clothes that she wore. Then I will find an expert who is good at finding souls through objects to determine the places where Wang Dongxue's ghost has been from those things. There must be a hiding place for their lair."
After hearing Tan Xuan's complete thoughts, Xiao Di immediately urged, "What are you waiting for? Let's go now."
"Uh... if you hadn't made such a fuss, I would probably be almost in the dormitory where Wang Dongxue and Xiaoying used to live." Unexpectedly, Xiao Di was more anxious than himself, and Tan Xuan was left with no choice but to laugh and cry.
Tan Xuan drove straight to the dormitory where Wang Dongxue and Jiang Yingyue lived before. Although it was his third time here, it was his first time to come here during the day, so Tan Xuan was a little uncomfortable. Without Jiang Yingyue, a resident, following him, Tan Xuan did not drive into the community, but chose to park the car near the community and then walk into the community. The security guard of the community let them in without even asking.
When they arrived downstairs of Wang Dongxue's dormitory, they were stopped by the building's access control system. Xiao Di belatedly raised a very realistic question.
"We don't have a key, how do we get in?"
Seeing that Tan Xuan didn't say anything, Xiao Di gave him some advice and said, "Did Jiang Yingyue hand in the keys after she resigned? If not, you can take them down from her."
Tan Xuan shook his head. "No need to ask Xiaoying for the key. We can follow them in if someone comes out."
After saying that, Tan Xuan stepped aside and made way for the door.
"Tsk, I thought you had some good idea." Xiao Di curled his lips and followed Tan Xuan's example to stand aside.
After waiting for a while and seeing no one coming in or out, Xiao Di started gossiping with Tan Xuan out of boredom, "Hey, you keep calling her Xiaoying all the time, do you have any improper thoughts about Jiang Yingyue?"
Tan Xuan was stunned for a moment and glared at Xiao Di unhappily. He didn't expect that this silly girl had such a good eye. She actually saw through his little thoughts. He said, "Don't talk nonsense. I'm just calling you by your name to be more friendly. I don't have as many crooked thoughts as you say. We live under the same roof and see each other every day. I can't always call you by your full name."
Xiao Di snorted and said with disdain: "Tsk, explanation is covering up, you are guilty, right? If there is nothing wrong, would you explain it to me in a nice way? Think about it yourself, do you believe this?"
Tan Xuan wanted to explain, but there was nothing to explain, because Xiao Di said the truth. It would be meaningless for him to explain. He had a crush on Jiang Yingyue, but Tan Xuan did not admit it generously. He just warned Xiao Di: "Just tell me this, don't let Xiaoying hear it, otherwise she will think that I let her live in my house with some bad intentions."
"Tsk, you've confessed yourself, hum!" Xiao Di snorted again, and then continued: "As a friend, whether you like it or not, I have to remind you that you have only known each other for a few days, and you took her home to live, and now you have a crush on her. I advise you to get to know each other for a while and see if you are suitable for each other. Don't end up not being able to be friends because of your one-sided crush."
Xiao Di's words made Tan Xuan look at her with a new eye. Tan Xuan never expected that this heartless and silly girl would say such a thing. Tan Xuan appreciated it but couldn't help but want to mock Xiao Di, "What's the matter? Do you have a past experience and have been hurt in love?"
"Get out!" Xiao Di glared at Tan Xuan fiercely, turned his head away, and was too lazy to even look at Tan Xuan again.
"Hehe..." Tan Xuan laughed awkwardly. Xiao Di's best answer was not to answer. He knew that those words came from her experience, but Tan Xuan felt that Xiao Di was worrying too much. Feelings are developed slowly. And from what happened at Director Chang's house yesterday, he felt that Jiang Yingyue had feelings for him. At least when Qian Bo and the others said that she was his girlfriend, she did not deny it. Wasn't that also tacit consent?
Finally, when neither of them wanted to take the initiative to deal with the other, the door of the unit was opened , and two people came out carrying a sofa, and at the same time blocked the door of the unit with stones. There must be other things to be moved out. There was a van at the door of the building, which seemed to be used for moving.
Xiao Di entered the apartment building happily, but before she even walked up the stairs, she became unhappy.
"We can enter this door, but how do we enter the main door of their dormitory?" Xiao Di said to Tan Xuan with a frustrated look on his face.
"Since we can come in through this big door, that small door ca stop us." Tan Xuan said disdainfully and went upstairs first.
Xiao Di curled his lips and followed closely, muttering as he walked: "Someone opened the door downstairs, we can follow them in. Jiang Yingyue and Wang Dongmei originally lived in the dormitory upstairs, and now one is dead and the other has escaped. You want a ghost to open the door for you?"
Tan Xuan looked back at Xiao Di and continued to walk upstairs. "Whether there is anyone opening the door or not, we will know when we get to the door."
"If you can't get in, I'm not done with you. You haven't thought through the plan..."
Anyway, he was already here and had fallen into Tan Xuan's trap. It was too late for Xiao Di to regret. He could only follow Tan Xuan upstairs, still mumbling to himself.
When they arrived at the door of Wang Dongxue's dormitory, Xiao Di shut up and couldn't speak, because everything in front of her stunned her. The door of the dormitory was actually open. Although it was only open a crack, it was enough to show that the door was not locked at all.
"What's happening here?"
Xiao Di looked at Tan Xuan and asked foolishly, but unfortunately Tan Xuan had the same expression as her, both of them were confused and couldn't give any answer at all.
"Should we go in now, or not? Is this a trap? Will there be a group of evil spirits inside the door as soon as we open it?"
Xiao Di didn't dare to approach the door. All kinds of possibilities flashed through his mind, and he asked Tan Xuan in a low voice.
Tan Xuan also frowned. The current situation was completely different from what he had expected. He had a way to get into the dormitory, but no one had left the door open for him. He was also suspicious.
"Hello, please make way."
Just when Tan Xuan and Xiao Di were feeling overwhelmed, someone spoke behind them. They turned around and found that the people who spoke were the two people from the moving company who had just carried the sofa downstairs.
Tan Xuan and Xiao Di moved aside to make way for a passage. The two men did not continue to go upstairs, but opened the door and went directly into the dormitory where Jiang Yingyue and Wang Dongxue used to live.
"This..." Tan Xuan and Xiao Di saw the living room that was almost empty. They looked at each other, and the doubts in their hearts were answered.
Tan Xuan followed the two into the house and found that they were moving the bed from the room where Jiang Yingyue used to live. He turned his head to look at Wang Dongxue's room, which had been emptied. The only furniture left in the room was the air conditioner and the chandelier. Everything else was gone. The windows were also open, but Tan Xuan could still smell a faint smell of burning paper.
"Excuse me, do you have anything to do for me?" Two people who were busy working saw someone coming in, and one of them put down the work in his hands and asked.
Tan Xuan smiled politely, "It's okay, I just passed by and came in to see you guys for the noise. Are you moving?"
"Either they're moving , or the owner of this house plans to replace everything inside and out with new ones." The man answered and continued to move things. Anyway, there was nothing valuable in the house that needed to be looked after.
"I thought they moved." Tan Xuan smiled and walked out. These two were just doing the work and he couldn't get anything else out of them.
"Why did you come out empty-handed?" Xiao Di had just entered the room when he was pushed out by Tan Xuan.
When he got outside, Tan Xuan glanced at Xiao Di and said, "What are you going to do if you don't have empty hands? Are you planning to take a piece of wallpaper away?"
Xiao Di leaned his head into the room and looked. Indeed, the room was very clean.
"Everything here has been emptied out. We can't find Wang Dongxue's things here. Let's go."
Tan Xuan walked in front and Xiao Di followed quickly.
"Why do they just move here? Isn't this a dormitory?" Xiao Di asked puzzled.
Tan Xuan chuckled and said proudly, "I smelled the smell of paper ash in Wang Dongxue's room. It must be Wang Dongxue's ghost that disturbed someone again. It's so ostentatious. I'm afraid it's a leader. Maybe it's Mr. Zhang."
"Maybe. I see there are only two people from the moving company here. There's no one watching over their company. They must be very cautious."
The two of them quickly went downstairs and walked around the moving company's cargo boxes. There were only a few beds and a set of sofas in the box. They guessed that other things had been taken away by a truck ahead, so they didn't see anything else.
After returning empty-handed, Xiao Di was very depressed. He looked at Tan Xuan in a depressed mood, "Wang Dongxue left nothing here. This line is completely broken. What should we do next?"
"No, Wang Dongxue still has a chance." Tan Xuan looked at Xiao Di and said with a smile on his face.
"What other chances are there?" Xiao Di asked in confusion. Seeing Tan Xuan smiling at her so brightly, she immediately had an ominous premonition in her heart.
