Volume 3 Winter Solstice Chapter 34: The First Small Meeting
At 7:50 the next morning, Guan Nuo arrived at the Tangjiang City Public Security Bureau. When he arrived at the door of the Special Operations Department's office on the 12th floor, he saw Sun Yu pushing a computer chair out. On the chair was a computer host and some miscellaneous items.
Sun Yu saw Guan Nuo.
He was carrying a backpack that was bulging with stuff.
"Good morning. The new office is on the 16th floor. Can you help me get the display screen up there?"
"Morning, all right."
Guan Nuo walked into the office, picked up the display screen and host connection cable on the table, and then followed Sun Yu towards the elevator.
"Did you come here by subway?" Sun Yu asked.
"Yes, there were so many people on the subway during the morning rush hour. I was pushed up by the crowd."
The elevator doors opened and they walked in.
Sunwoo loosened his grip on the computer chair, "You still have a year and a half to graduate, right?"
"yes."
"Will you continue to work in the Special Operations Department after graduation?"
Guan Nuo's expression flashed with confusion, "Me too, maybe."
We have arrived at the 16th floor.
Turn left and walk to the end, and you will reach the new office of the Special Operations Department.
The office door was open. After walking in, Guan Nuo saw Tang Butian standing in front of the window, pouncing on a jumping Coke bottle.
"Good morning, Chief." Guan Nuo greeted.
Tang Butian glanced at him and said, "Good morning."
Guan Nuo looked around the new office of the Special Operations Department. It was twice as big and had a small conference room attached. He looked at the door of the conference room. It was empty except for a cat climbing frame, a cat litter box, and a small low cabinet.
"Did you catch that evil spirit yesterday?" Guan Nuo asked.
"In the Coke bottle." Tang Butian answered him.
"Coke..." He saw Zhao Cai once again grabbed the Coke bottle that was floating in the air into his claws, "Did she say anything?"
"Taoist Qingyang will come."
"Taoist Qingyang?"
"right."
"Exorcism?"
“I’ll ask it something.”
"I, I can communicate with ghosts."
"You communicated yesterday."
When Guan Nuo opened his mouth, not knowing how to respond, Sun Yu patted his shoulder and said, "Help me go down and bring some things up."
"Oh well."
There weren't many things in the Special Operations Department's office originally, and the two of them moved them all after pushing the computer chair a few times.
When he walked to the new office with the last folder, Guan Nuo saw a man wearing a Taoist robe and carrying a peach wood sword standing in front of Tang Butian.
Hearing the footsteps, Taoist Qingyang turned around and saw Guan Nuo's face. He took a step forward and said, "This is Guan Qingtong's son, right? What's your name, young friend?"
"My name is Guan Nuo, do you know my mother?"
"know."
"So, what about my father?"
"I have met you several times."
"I..." Just as Guan Nuo was about to continue asking, Jiang You, wearing a brand new turmeric down jacket, walked in yawning.
He said, "Good morning, Guan Nuo, you're here too. I've already moved everything. Please help me move my things. I'm so sorry. Have some water." He took out five cans of Coke from the box where they were kept. After Sun Yu and Guan Nuo took them, he walked up to Taoist Qingyang and said, "Hello, Taoist Qingyang."
"Hello, little friend." Taoist Qingyang took the Coke.
Tang Butian also reached out and took it.
"Brother Jiang, where do you want to sit?" Sun Yu asked.
"It's all right. I'll just sit next to you." Jiang You walked back and took a sip of Coke. Then he saw Zhao Cai running under the desk.
He put the can of Coke on the desk, took two quick steps forward, squatted down, reached out and picked up Zhaocai.
Very flexible.
He held Zhaocai in his arms, picked up the empty Coke bottle that had rolled to the wall, and stood up.
"Meow." Zhao Cai called out.
Guan Nuo took off his backpack, unzipped it, and pulled out Jiang You's long black down jacket. The backpack suddenly became empty.
He brought the down jacket to Jiang You and said, "Brother Jiang, I'll return the down jacket to you."
Jiang You took the down jacket with one hand and hung it on the back of his computer chair. "You don't have a cold, do you?"
"No," Guan Nuo thought for a moment and added, "My mother made me some Zheng Chaihu granules to drink."
"When I was a kid and had a cold, my mom also liked to make this for me to drink," Jiang You sat down and held Zhao Cai in his arms, "She also liked to make two packs at once. It's very strong, and the taste..."
"Everyone is here, let's start." Tang Butian interrupted Jiang You.
When Sun Yu heard this, he closed the door and turned back. Guan Nuo followed Jiang You to pull out a few chairs.
After everyone was seated, Tang Butian said, "Sun Yu, tell me about Zeng Lu's situation."
"Okay," Sun Yu pulled his chair forward a little, "There are a total of five people named Zeng Lu among the permanent residents of Tangjiang City. After screening, the most likely one is the one I sent you yesterday."
Sun Yu paused for a moment, "Today I got more detailed information. She is from Sumo and came to Tangjiang a week after marrying her husband six years ago. Her husband is Zhou Zhihao, from Jinrong. Zeng Lu used her household registration certificate to get the marriage certificate with Zhou Zhihao."
"What's wrong with the household registration certificate?" Guan Nuo asked.
"I know," Jiang You raised his hand to answer, "I guess he wanted to steal the household registration book to get married but failed, so he took his ID card to the police station to get a household registration certificate to get the marriage certificate."
"Yes," Sun Yu continued, "Zeng Lu was from a single-parent family. Her parents divorced when she was 8 years old, and she was awarded to her mother, Sun Fang. Sun Fang was an elementary school Chinese teacher and passed away a month ago."
Sun Yu sighed, "If Zeng Lu said so, she is now eight months pregnant."
Sun Yu clicked on Zeng Lu's photo and pointed the phone screen at Guan Nuo, "Do you know her?"
"I know them. They have a pancake stand near the community. They look like nice people..."
Jiang You held up a Coke bottle and teased Cai, "You can't write the word bad guy on your face."
"In the past six years, Zeng Lu went to Jinrong twice with Zhou Zhihao, but never returned to Sumo," Sun Yu sighed, "but they would transfer money to Sun Fang's bank card every month."
"What's the use of money?" Guan Nuo had a little anger on his face.
"So this female ghost is Sun Fang?" Jiang You raised the Coke bottle.
Sun Yu was very conservative: "Based on the information I got, it is likely to be true."
Jiang You handed the Coke bottle to Taoist Qingyang, "Then I'll trouble you, Taoist Qingyang."
Qingyang held the Coke bottle in front of his eyes and looked at it, then he stood up and walked to the open space behind the office. He drew the peach wood sword from his back, stepped on the fighting ground and chanted the spell.
Unscrewed the cap of the Coke bottle.
Gray-white hair gushed out from the bottle, endlessly.
Guan Nuo opened his eyes wide, and a cold atmosphere filled the office.
He heard the sound of ghosts crying, and an old and mournful female voice, "Daughter, I want to find my daughter..."
