"It's hard to say in one word. You go back to Chongqing first, and I'll tell you the details of what happened slowly, okay?" Director Luo said.
Lin Xiaofeng furrowed his brow and said, "But I'm reading a book..."
"Don't worry, I'll help you ask for leave on your school's side. You bring the stuff to the school gate, there are police cars waiting for you."
Lin Xiaofeng let out a sigh, after all, he was the director of such a large public security bureau, and personally called to say nothing, but also sent someone here early to wait for him. If he refused, it would be somewhat inappropriate.
"Okay, but I'm not promising I can help you solve it," Lin Xiao Feng said before hanging up the phone. He washed his face, grabbed his suitcase and headed towards the school gate.
He didn't plan to call Huang Paozi and Xiang Zhu, and what was going on over there wasn't clear yet.
Wait until we arrive in Chongqing and ask Director Luo to clarify what's going on before we say anything else.
When he arrived at the school gate, there was indeed a police car parked there. Lin Xiaofeng walked over and knocked on the window.
The police officer inside looked like he was only twenty-four or five years old. He had obviously seen Lin Xiaofeng's photo and smiled, saying: "Mr. Lin, please get in the car."
Lin Xiaofeng sat in the back seat, and the police drove back to Chongqing.
On the way, Lin Xiaofeng chatted with this policeman for a while.
When asked why Director Luo invited him back to Chongqing, this police officer said he didn't know, and that his only responsibility was to pick up Lin Xiaofeng.
The car drove for two hours and finally returned to Chongqing.
Chongqing was experiencing a torrential downpour at this time, the hot air from underground was evaporating with the rainwater, although it was raining, but it felt even more sweltering than usual.
Lin Xiaofeng listened to the sound of raindrops hitting the car window outside.
The car quickly drove into the garage of the Public Security Bureau.
Lin Xiaofeng followed behind the police officer, took the elevator and arrived directly at an office door.
The police officer knocked gently on the door and then opened it, making a please gesture. Lin Xiaofeng walked into the office, Director Luo was sitting in front of an office desk, his desk piled high with thick stacks of files, apparently very busy.
"Has Lin come?" Director Luo looked up, a smile spreading across his face as he hastily set aside the papers on his desk and stood up. He waved at the police officer outside, who then closed the door.
This office is quite simple, with only a bookcase, a desk and a sofa.
"Tea or beverage?" Director Luo smiled and asked.
Lin Xiaofeng sat down on the sofa, smiling and said: "Director Luo, you've had someone bring me all the way back from Chengdu to Chongqing, it's not just to invite me for tea, is it? Let's get down to business."
Director Luo nodded slightly, turned around and found a file on his desk, handed it over and said: "Take a look at this."
Lin Xiaofeng took over the file and opened it, inside were a few photos.
In the photo, a grave was dug open and exposed a bluestone cast coffin.
"What's this?" Lin Xiaofeng frowned and asked.
"These days, Chongqing has been experiencing several days of torrential rain. As a result, the slope at Sifanggang was washed away by the floodwaters, and someone discovered that this coffin had been washed out." Director Luo furrowed his brow.
"Is there anything strange about this coffin?"
"Have you heard of Sì Dǐng Gǎng?"
Lin Xiaofeng shook his head.
"These four peaks are a desolate mountain in the southeast of Chongqing. If it weren't for the many villages surrounding it, this place could be said to be uninhabited and devoid of life." Director Luo said: "We have many old legends and stories in Chongqing, and that mountain at Sì Dǐng Gǎng also has a legend that's been passed down for decades."
"I'd like to hear more about it," said Lin Xiaofeng.
"This is what the villagers nearby said after the coffin was washed out, it's about **** period, under the four ridges, there was an old man, who was said to be proficient in divination and Feng Shui, with a set of skills."
Later he was put on a high hat and paraded through the streets.
"This old man used to help people in nearby villages with divination and geomancy, never charging a fee. Moreover, when he encountered poor families, he would even give them some money, wanting to accumulate good deeds for himself."
"As a result, when he was paraded through the streets, those people who used to greet him with smiles every day instead scolded him loudly, each one seeming as if they had never gotten along with him."
Director Luo paused for a moment, then continued: "This old man was already very old, and after being tossed around for not too long, he didn't make it. Before he died, he cursed those villagers and said that after death, he would take them with him to the underworld."
"This thing has been forgotten for decades, and the coffin was washed out by rainwater." Director Luo said: "The elderly villagers nearby remembered this matter and were afraid, letting our police think of a solution."
"Did you bring this coffin back?" asked Lin Xiaofeng.
"No, that coffin is very heavy, many of us lifted it, but it didn't budge, just like it had taken root in the ground." Director Luo said: "That's exactly why I notified you to come back this time, I want you to take a look."
"When he heard this, Lin Xiaofeng said: 'What about your paranormal group in Chongqing?'"
"Didn't I tell you last time? The leader of our Chongqing paranormal group is always wandering around outside, and these past few days I haven't been able to get in touch with him. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had you come all the way here."
Then Director Luo asked: "Can you solve this?"
"It's unclear, I'll have to go on site and take a look at the specific situation." Lin Xiao Feng said this with a smile: "Right, I'm not one of your paranormal group members, can't just help out for free, right?"
"How about 50,000?" Director Luo asked with a smile.
Lin Xiaofeng heard: "Can't add some more?"
"I can add it for you, of course. After all, the state allocates the funds, but there are strict terms and conditions." Director Luo's face showed a apologetic expression.
Just as Director Luo said, if he could add more, he would definitely add some. After all, whether or not it's the Lingyi team, people like him must try to get along as well as possible.
Many members of the paranormal group, even the mayor, ******** do not want to offend easily. It's not because the members of the paranormal group have great power, but because of the special nature of their abilities.
Living in a high position, who hasn't offended a few enemies? When the time comes, others will invite evil sorcerers to take revenge on them.
If the relationship with the paranormal group's people becomes awkward, the trouble will only be for oneself, so even if it is an ordinary member of the paranormal group, the mayor and others will still treat them very politely.
Lin Xiaofeng understood this principle and knew that 50,000 was probably the maximum that Director Luo could offer, so he didn't ask for a higher price. Instead, he said: "Take me to see the situation now."
50,000 yuan is not a small amount. At this time, the money in his card was actually almost gone. This sum of money could be earned and used for about a year.
Director Luo was naturally delighted and nodded hastily: "Alright, I'll take you there."
After finishing speaking, Director Luo went to the garage with Lin Xiaofeng and drove towards Sifenggang. ++ Important notice: Are you still using the web version? Are you still bothered by ads?
