    Chapter 36 The underworld is not a place outside the law

    Arriving in front of Song Futan's car, Dou Chunting thought about getting up, "Hey, brother, open the door."

    Song Futan: "Go take a taxi."

    Dou Chunting couldn't believe it: "Why!" He turned around and complained, "Mom, aunt, my brother didn't send me—"

    I saw Song Qiyun and the others quickly got into their cars, kicked the accelerator and drove away.

    Dou Chunting: "..."

    Dou Chunting: "I can't, brother, it's the first time Lan He sees you, so can't you give your brother away? Can't I compare to him?" He turned to Lan He and said, "I didn't say you I'm sorry..."

    Compare? What do you compare with Lan He? ?

    Song Futan said coldly, "You can take a taxi."

    Or Lan He didn't think it was very good. Dou Chunting was right. It would be strange to send him instead of his cousin. After persuading him a few words, Song Futan put him up.

    Lan He opened the trunk and stuffed the box, and then lifted her chin to Yiping who was standing far away. Only then did Yiping come over and get in.

    Dou Chunting has already taken the back seat, "Thank you, brother."

    Dou Chunting reported the address, he was going to play at a friend's place, watching Lan He put away the box, remembering that Lan He helped him to get on the bus, and warmly greeted Lan He to come to the back seat, and helped him open the door, " Come, come this way."

    Song Futan: "..."

    Lan He sat next to him, "Thank you brother."

    Dou Chunting thought it was very funny. To be honest, there were people who approached him with his dad or uncle at ordinary times, and some of them were so greasy that he was very disgusted. Lan He called his brother now, but he didn't feel disgusted at all, even a little interesting.

    Dou Chunting pondered for a while, maybe not only because Lan He's expression was calm, but also because his brother, who didn't eat human fireworks, first looked at Lan He differently, so how he looked at Lan He, he had an air of mastery. He still believes in his cousin's vision.

    "You're welcome. Where do you live, or I'll send you off first, I'm not in a hurry." Dou Chunting said with a smile.

    "It's okay, you should be closer." Lan He embarrassedly said, in fact, he just wanted to chat with Xiao Song.

    "Thank you, Brother Lan He." Dou Chunting also called out to brother, and chatted with Lan He very talkatively, "You have dinner with President Yu, are they telling you ghost stories again, what haunted house, the princess' tomb, etc. Oh, wait, this is in Xingshuang, so it's about the ghost story of the Prince's Mansion? Did it scare you?"

    It seems that others have figured out Mr. Yu's routine, but don't say it, what he said is really good, Lan He smiled and said: "Yes, but it didn't scare me, I believe that there are no ghosts and gods in the world, and not all It is said that the human heart is far more terrifying than ghosts and spirits.”

    Dou Chunting sighed: "Regardless of the previous sentence, I still agree with the second half of the sentence, the human heart is sometimes more terrifying than ghosts and spirits."

    Song Futan: "..."

    Yiping: "..."

    ...isn't it, the human heart is scarier than the ghosts and spirits, especially Lan He's heart.

    "However..." Dou Chunting glanced at his cousin, of course, he didn't dare to talk nonsense about his cousin, he just said, "I have sneaked into the palace at night before, my junior high school is in that part of it. In the remodeled school, after the evening self-study, I climbed over the wall with my classmates and went in, it scared me, there were really female ghosts crying inside."

    Lan He smiled slightly: "Maybe the staff haven't finished get off work yet, have you seen him?"

    Dou Chunting: "No, but the master I found later said yes."

    Lan He smiled without saying a word.

    Dou Chunting thought to himself, don't look at whether you don't believe it now, after staying with my brother for a long time, you will definitely believe it!

    He continued in frustration: "Then have you heard about the ghost news in the capital recently? It's spreading all over the place."

    Lan He naturally said he didn't know.

    "That is to say, there is a police station in the capital that is also haunted. There have been ghosts crying all the time, but many people have heard it, and fewer people have gone there recently! You search, there are posts on the Internet, and the family members there also broke the news. already."

    Lan He felt even more ridiculous: "How is it possible that a ghost would dare to enter the police station? It's rumored on the Internet, and there are people who say that the logo of President Yu's house was stolen by practice, do you believe it?"

    Dou Chunting: "..."

    Song Futan: "..."

    However, the first half of Lan He's sentence is really sincere. In such a righteous place of the police station, how could a ghost enter. Today's supernatural stories are made more and more careless.

    "It's not going in, it's crying outside the police station." Dou Chunting slapped his face, and he didn't personally verify this, so he didn't have enough confidence to say it, "Anyway, I have a buddy who passed by there at night and stopped the car. When I smoke, it means I hear crying, but I can't see anyone. But it's just crying, other than that..."

    "It's here, go down." Song Futan braked and finally spit out four words coldly.

    "So fast?!" When Dou Chunting said what the speed was, the door had already opened, so he had to go down in despair, "Goodbye, brother."

    Lan He also waved his hand.

    After seeing their car leave, Dou Chunting lowered his head and searched Lan He's information. Although it was transparent, the company also posted some manuscripts and information on the Internet.

    "Hey, isn't this a few months younger than me! It's a loss!" Dou Chunting said, "I have to talk about it next time, as long as he doesn't change his age..."

    ...

    "Haha, your brother is quite naive." Lan He smiled, "How come you even believe this kind of ghost story, doesn't he know anything about you?"

    "I only know a few things, I'm not particularly clear. After all, ordinary people should not touch these things if they have nothing to do." Song Futan said. Moreover, his experience after leaving his soul will not be shared with his family.

    "Okay, when it comes to the police station, let's go to the police station first, the one on Qingxi Road, you can use the navigation." Lan He said, "I'm going to hand over the Kinmen Kan'er to the bus, and by the way, borrow some paper—Yi Yi Ping, do you want to sit in the front?"

    The back of Song Futan's model is one piece, but it has a cover, only Yiping's voice can be heard faintly: "No..."

    Lan He explained: "It's very timid, probably because there are too many people in front of it."

    Song Futan: "??"

    How many people are there?

    If both of them hadn't been able to see ghosts, Song Futan would have thought it was a ghost story, similar to saying "too many people" in an elevator with only one person and I wouldn't get on it.

    "I'm going to take Yiping to be a guardian of the family, so I'll be a hedgehog..." Lan He was a little excited. It was the first time he had been frank about his own affairs with people outside his family. Talking about the underworld like this, let him He felt a little different, but not as nervous as he thought at first.

    "My grandfather also raised hedgehogs before, and there is a breeding box, do you need it?" Song Futan also felt that this atmosphere was very comfortable.

    Yiping said weakly: "It's for the God of Wealth Building... The seniors in my clan said that the best building of God of Wealth is made of bricks, tiles and wood. "

    He already knew that not everyone could live in a big yard.

    Lan He: "...what some people, rich people!"

    "Oh, rich people." Yiping said, "It's two stories high, and you have to open the door, engrave a god's seat, and burn incense all year round." .

    Lan He's expression gradually became a little melancholy. Of course, what he promised Yiping would be done, but he was a little troubled, and he couldn't get out of the door, which would block the fire escape. Is it built at home, balcony? The landlord does not necessarily let it, so it is not strict?

    How to do this God of Wealth Building...

    Song Futan glanced back and said indifferently: "That kind of God of Wealth Building sounds a little old. The breeding box is said to be a box, but it is actually a hedgehog villa. It can keep warm. The environmentally friendly PVC material makes the living environment cleaner, and the acrylic glass is easy to care for. Incense." He thought about the hedgehog's habits, and added, "There are metal meshes on the ventilation holes to prevent others from trying to harass you from there."

    Yiping sat up: "Oh? Sounds a bit rich..."

    Lan He also recovered: "Rich, very rich!"

    He was really limited in his thinking, because Yiping always talked about courtyard houses.

    The times are developing, and the brick and tile God of Wealth Building is actually the standard of the year. Just like people now, fewer people live in brick houses.

    They liked the God of Wealth Building because it was luxurious in those days, but it really doesn't matter now, it doesn't even have the function of keeping warm. In fact, there is no need to build bricks and tiles, you can choose a more comfortable hedgehog. It is estimated that it is not expensive, even if there is no ready-made one from Song Futan, you can also buy one online.

    Sure enough, Yiping was also moved.

    Lan He gave Song Futan a thankful look.

    Song Futan saw his wet warm brown eyes, and squeezed the steering wheel, feeling his heart tighten.

    Bian Chang chatted about Yiping's mansion, and the car also drove to Qingxi Road. Lan He asked Song Futan to stop at a place that was still some distance away, and took Jinmen Kaner from Yiping's hand: "I left my soul and went to them. dormitory."

    This road is not a main road, there are not many vehicles on the road, it is sparse, and it does not stop from time to time. At this point, the police station had already finished get off work, and it was dark.

    Lan He hadn't left his soul yet, when the car stopped, he heard a cry that seemed to have no resentment.

    It is looming, with a ghostly atmosphere, floating on the streets of the dark night, with a long sound and a short sound, it will make people's hearts tugged.

    Song Futan turned back and glanced at Lan He.

    Dou Chunting is not talking nonsense, is there really a ghost in front of the police station? ?

    This is really strange, Lan He vigilantly said: "Be careful, maybe it's for you, I'll take a look."

    Compared with ghosts making trouble outside the police station, Lan He was more willing to believe that it was for Song Futan. Isn't he just like that?

    Lan He put on the mask and drew a spell before leaving her soul.

    Song Futan saw his soul come out of his body with his own eyes, and smiled at himself embarrassedly. It was probably the first time Lan He left his soul in front of an insider.

    Lan He got out of the window and floated towards the police station.

    After he got out, two sighs sounded almost simultaneously in the car.

    Song Futan: Shy and sweet with a smile...

    Bai Wu: That ghost is miserable.

    ...

    When Lan He arrived at the police station, she really saw a ghost, so she huddled by the wall, crying out at night, making her scalp tingle.

    Lan He went over and said vigilantly, "Hey—"

    As soon as the ghost raised his head, there was a big bag on his neck, and when he saw Lan He, his resentful expression gradually became excited: "Lord Come! It's you, Lord! Oh my God, I thought I would never wait for you!! "

    Lan He: "??"

    wait, this ghost is not...

    The ghost stood up, revealing the Luoguo on his back and the paper rope in his hand, and said with tears: "Come on, sir, how long do I have to stay in this situation, I have been doing my best, waiting for you to send someone to inspect It's so scary outside the police station. There are often villains and police officers. I cry every day."

    Lan He: "…………"

    Damn, I remembered, this is the rogue ghost he caught on the paper bus before, and he gave him to the police station to reflect, and said that he took the time to let him go. As a result, I was busy for two months and had no time at all.

    He just said that the ghost came from outside the police station, it turned out to be the one he chained here... So, the so-called new ghosts in the capital was caused by him unintentionally? !

    Fortunately, he used up the happy paper quickly, and today he came to Wang Lili to restock...

    Lan He said with a guilty conscience: "This, this is not here! I came here specifically to see if you have reflected, now you know what you are afraid of? Do you dare to do it in the future?"

    Luo Guogui wiped his tears: "I don't dare anymore, I must be a good ghost."

    Ghosts are also afraid of wicked people. Those who enter the game are afraid of death. When the police stare at him, he is also afraid of death. This kind of day can finally end. God, he will never do bad things again in the future. If he is caught by Mr. Lai again, he will not dare to think about it.

    They don't need to eat or sleep, but this kind of mental torture is terrible.

    Lan He untied his paper rope, "Let's go, let's go."

    Luo Guogui bowed two more times before he was in a hurry.

    Lan He saw that he had disappeared, and then entered the dormitory.

    ...

    Wang Lili dreamed of his partner again!

    As soon as he saw him, Wang Lili said, "Have you read the follow-up to the last case? I found the owner."

    "Well, I know it's fine to leave it to you." Lan He said, "This time, I have something else to ask for your help, and I'm also looking for the owner."

    When Wang Lili heard it, she just said the same as the previous two times, "Okay."

    Lan He took out something, Wang Lili saw it, it was a three-inch, five-foot high, six-foot-long, and one-foot-thick yellow lacquer threshold. It looked very old, with three "Golden Thresholds" engraved in the middle. The characters, "Genyu Longde Palace" are engraved on the left, and "Craftsman Yan is cast in gold" on the right, using small seal characters.

    ... a big case, this is a big case!

    Wang Lili didn't really do any research on Xiao Zhuan. The reason why he knew what was written on it was because there was a case of theft of cultural relics in the capital during this time, which might involve transnational theft, and the city bureau attached great importance to it. There are photos inside. !

    It's been a while since this case was talked about, but there was no clue at all. He heard some inside stories, and the technology adopted by the thieves was too advanced. With their current technology, they couldn't find any traces at all. It's like, as if the Golden Gate Barrier and the Golden Gate Dun'er really disappeared out of thin air. There are also rumors about this, and it is even said that it is an international thief, which is surprising.

    Now, it appeared in Lan He's hands.

    Wang Lili's breath was confused, "How come there is a Golden Gate Pier and a Golden Mouse here with you?"

    "I only found half of it, I will send it here first, and I will entrust you to return it to the owner. I heard that he has reported the case. You should be able to convey it, right?" Lan He asked.

    "Okay, this is a big case, a strange case." Wang Lili said, and suddenly understood something, "It disappeared out of thin air, couldn't it be because it wasn't stolen by someone, right?"

    So, will there be peers in the underworld to look for? And how can they find no traces?

    The so-called disappearing out of thin air is not out of thin air at all, but a creature that no one can see!

    "It's enough for you to know, the owner should also know it in his heart," Lan He said. He had heard that it was originally promoted by those mage masters who ate the meal in the underworld in the capital.

    "Is it clear to the owner?" Wang Lili murmured, "Then how should I report to my superior? Can I say that you gave it to me?" He himself thought it was absurd, but such a cultural relic is not a tombstone, Paper sticks and the like can fool the past.

    "You can say it, but no one will believe it. Maybe the owner will cooperate with you to give a good reason." Lan He said, and handed the Golden Gate Kan'er to him.

    In any case, this is the golden gate. Wang Lili heard that jingle when he was a child, and being able to give it to him shows his trust in his character. He took it with his head held high, and gave Lan He a salute. "Don't worry, partner, you won't be disappointed!"

    "Thank you... eh?" Lan He responded, "Partner?"

    Wang Lili: "..."

    Oops, I accidentally said what was on my mind, and Wang Lili said embarrassingly: "This, I think, let's cooperate across borders, the yin and yang police... We have cooperated on three cases together, so they can be considered partners."

    Lan He couldn't help laughing: "Forget it. That partner, can you borrow some more paper?"

    Wang Lili thought of the suspicious and unkind eyes on the logistics side, and gritted her teeth: "Of course!"

    He frantically went to get office supplies, and when he got it, everyone suspected that he had put the notebook on the wall. He used it less during this time, just a little bit, and it was estimated that he would be suspected again.

    Lan He tore off the paper.

    As soon as Wang Lili woke up, she felt a heavy chest in her chest. She opened her eyes and saw that it was a piece of yellow paint on the threshold. He didn't dare to delay for a moment, and quickly got up and called.

    "Okay, I've given it to him. It shouldn't be a problem." Lan He saw that Wang Lili was very cautious, and was very relieved to him. This "partner" was very motivated.

    "Then I'll take you back." Song Futan started the car again, "What's the matter with the ghost cry?"

    Lan He: "..."

    Lan He: "I misunderstood. I went to Juehui Temple to look for you, and I caught a ghost who stole something and tied it here. As a result, he cried every day because he was afraid of the wicked and the police who came in and out..."

    As he spoke, his voice became smaller.

    Song Futan also smiled and comforted: "It should be caught. The underworld is not a place outside the law."

    "Yes, I also know that good and evil must be rewarded, and I'm not afraid of official punishment or ghosts!" Lan He thought, "Oh, I forgot to threaten him not to go out and talk nonsense. I won't spread rumors outside! You don't know, before When we went to the underworld, I made a mess in the underworld."

    Song Futan glanced at him, this is not a rumor...

    At this time, Yiping's voice suddenly came weakly: "Can you stop at the front, I want to send a letter to my elders of the same clan. I haven't told them yet, I have found the offering."

    In front of an open park, Yiping wrote a letter and went down to find a squirrel to deliver the letter.

    Seeing that he was gone, Lan He hurriedly explained the fox's possible origins again, "I think she is Hu Si, she should be inseparable, the fox is very revengeful, you still have to be careful...then There's nothing wrong with the rosary, right?"

    Song Futan said with certainty, "No way."

    The car drove to the gate of the community where Lan He lived.

    Lan He: "It's here, it's here."

    Song Futan's tone seemed to have a vague sigh.

    From Lan He's point of view, he could only see his lowered eyes in the rearview mirror: "Well, here we are."

    "...Well, thank you, I have to pack up tonight, come to my house tomorrow." Lan He said, watching Song Futan turn back, he added, "I haven't seen you alive."

    Song Futan was in a light mood for a while, "Okay, I'll bring the breeding box tomorrow."

    Lan He got out of the car, and Song Futan also came out to help him unload his luggage.

    "Goodbye then." Lan He took the luggage, stretched out her hand again, and said with a smile, "By the way... nice to meet you."

    Song Futan also stretched out his right hand and held his warm and soft hand. This is also the first time they have touched each other alive. Compared with his lower body temperature because he is often separated from his soul, Lan He is extremely warm.

    "Nice to meet you too."

    ...

    "This is where I live...rent." Lan He dragged her luggage into the elevator, "I've already told you my elders, my family is really not big."

    Siheyuan or something, it may not be possible to live in this life.

    Yiping said quietly: "Forget it, now there are fewer people who will worship family immortals... As long as there is a place to live and a few incense sticks to eat, I have no other requirements, the incense should not be too inferior."

    Lan He: "...Yes."
