Volume 1 Beginning of Summer Chapter 77: Loss of Money
Jiang You and Ji Feng sat on a bench downstairs in Building 55.
Ji Feng came to the scene immediately after receiving Tang Butian's message.
Jiang You handed him a cigarette. He took it and lit it. The smell of smoke washed away the stench that lingered at his nose.
He exhaled a puff of smoke, "Another tenant of yours?"
"yes."
"Involved, that?" He knew that Jiang You had joined the Special Operations Department.
"Maybe. We'll know when Tang Butian comes over to take a look."
"Then let me understand the situation first?"
"Okay."
Ji Feng coughed and cleared his throat. He asked, "When did Fang Xuezhou and Yu Hong start renting your house?"
"On June 28 this year, I connected with the real estate agent, Xiao Zhou, who was with me just now. I calculated that they started renting on July 1, which made it easier to calculate the rent."
"Have you contacted them since?"
"No. The rent is charged according to the rule of paying three months' rent and depositing one month's rent, but..."
"What?"
"At that time, they wanted to pay one month in advance, but I refused. Today is August 6th. The smell has accumulated like this, and it must have been there for several days. So they may have planned to stay for only one month."
"Did you notice anything wrong at the time?"
"There was a lot of mud between their fingernails and on the surface of their suitcases," Jiang You thought for a moment and said, "They said they came to Tangjiang to find a job."
"Anything else to add?"
"No, that's all I know. It's really a bad year . Don't they say that losing money can ward off disaster? I'll sell it at a lower price. Maybe it will help to get rid of this bad luck."
Ji Feng looked at him sympathetically, "You are very unlucky, remember to clean the house as soon as possible."
"There are dozens or even hundreds of cat carcasses. Did you see that? They're infested with worms. I'll have to clean up later. I'm sure a part-time worker won't want to do it. No matter how much money I'm paid, I'm sure they won't do it. Luckily, the living room is tiled, so there aren't many stains in the room. I think the walls need to be repainted and thoroughly disinfected," Jiang You couldn't stop complaining. "It's so hot, and you think the neighbors next door didn't call the police when they smelled the odor? They're really careless. Is this a crime? Is there a crime of torturing small animals to death? They're definitely antisocial and mentally abnormal! Now I understand why they were willing to pay three deposits and one deposit. I guess the extra money is my compensation. Can we take them to the police station for some political education? "
A gust of wind blew by.
Ji Feng raised his head and saw Tang Butian walking into the community and heading towards their location.
Jiang You and Ji Feng put out their cigarettes and stood up.
Tang Butian walked up to them.
"I just went upstairs to check," Ji Feng's facial muscles twitched, "We need to clean it up quickly, otherwise it might cause an epidemic or something. I think the whole building should be disinfected..."
Tang Butian said, "I'll go up and take a look. You wait for me downstairs."
Ji Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Xiao Zhou came over with a big shopping bag.
His face was still a little pale.
Jiang You took the shopping bag. He took out a mask from it and gave it to Tang Butian, and then took out another one and put it on himself.
Jiang You took Tang Butian to Building 56.
"Do you know how to remove dust?" Jiang You asked. Wearing a mask, his voice sounded a little muffled.
"What is that?"
"It's like making a hand gesture or chanting a spell and waving your hand, and then the dust and garbage in the house will automatically disappear and the house will be brand new."
"Won't."
"The fairy tale novels all say that this is an introductory spell."
“You know it’s a novel.”
“I felt at the time that there was something very wrong with those two people.”
“Then why rent it to them?”
"Xiao Zhou was kind enough to help me get this business."
Climb up to the fifth floor again.
A strange smell penetrated the nose through the mask.
Open the door.
Tang Butian took a step back.
Most of them are kittens with very small bodies.
The fur was stained with mud and blood.
The head was twisted off.
Some of the abdomens were cut open.
Tang Butian turned her head away, unable to bear to watch any further.
Jiang You asked: "Did you see anything?"
Tang Butian shook his head.
“It’s so clean.”
Tang Butian gave Jiang You a strange look.
"From the way they died, it seems that each cat was tortured when they were alive. There is no resentment and no soul left." Jiang You walked into the living room and walked between the gaps between the cat corpses. "It looks messy, but in fact, the distribution of the corpses seems to follow a special rule... No wonder the neighbors didn't call the police. It is estimated that the magic circle that blocks the smell failed today. Those two people must be planning something." Jiang You turned and looked at Tang Butian, "You'd better talk to Ji Feng and find them."
"I will. What else do you see?"
"Two idiots."
"What's the meaning?"
"This is Tangjiang. They are using such a primitive and disgusting method to gather power. I don't know where they came from. Why don't they learn from that tattoo organization? They are clean and difficult to detect. Do you think I can still live in this house..."
Jiang You couldn't help but start complaining again.
"You clean it up."
"Is there really no dust removal technique?" Jiang You asked unwillingly.
"No, you can use other methods, spider spirit."
"Don't make a fuss. I am 100% pure Chinese. You have read my medical report."
“Oh, I’m going down.
Jiang You sighed, put on gloves resignedly, and took out the garbage bag.
The garbage bags are large and thick, and are special property garbage bags.
He bent down, put on gloves, and threw the bodies of kittens in. "I saw the Weibo post by Sun Yu. Thank you."
"Work hard."
Tang Butian walked downstairs.
Jiang You put the cat's body into a garbage bag and tied it up. Then he took out a hose from the shopping bag Zhou Liang gave him and connected it to the faucet. He rushed it towards the ground and walls to wash away the blood and dirt stuck on them. Then he found a mop and drove the water into the toilet floor drain. Then he sprayed 84 disinfectant everywhere in the house. Finally, he opened all the windows in the house.
After doing all this, he closed the door and went downstairs carrying the garbage bag.
" Okay?" Ji Feng was a little surprised at his speed.
"Let's get rid of the smell first, and find someone to do the cleaning tomorrow. I don't want anything in there anyway, so I'll just consider it as a way to ward off bad luck and get rid of bad luck."
Ji Feng glanced at the garbage bag in his hand and asked, "What are you going to do with this?"
Jiang You glanced at Tang Butian and said, "Contact the crematorium to burn it."
"There is a place that specializes in this. I'll contact them."
"Most of them are kittens. It's unlikely that they caught them themselves . I think they were probably bought from various pet stores."
"The investigation has already begun, and the current whereabouts of these two people have been found."
Jiang You sighed again, "Thank you for your hard work."
