Chapter word count: 3006

"There is something in this house."

"What's there?" Hua Li asked.

"I asked Tan Geng to come here to verify this." Jiang Yu looked around and said, "At first, I just thought that this house was full of yin, and it was just because of Feng Shui, but all your reports have stated that since you lived here, Strange things happen frequently. If the people who moved in later were all caused by the undead before, then Hua Li who came first can prove that there were no other undead before her... In addition, after you died, there were no other undead. The spirit guide came to extradite you, except for those who committed suicide and were trapped, at least those who died accidentally like Grandpa Shi had to be extradited by the spirit guide to the underworld to report after death, but they didn't."

"Then why?" Sang Nansheng asked.

"So I think there is something in this house that has been restraining the undead, and at the same time, it has also prevented you from being pursued by ghost messengers and ghost messengers." Jiang Yu looked at Hua Li, "Hua Li, tell me, what are you doing?" dead?"

"I..." Hua Li's pale hand touched the black hole between her brows—"I don't remember, I just know...someone pointed a gun at me, and then I don't know..." Hua Li was in Of all the ghosts in the house, he is the only ghost who doesn't remember what happened before he was alive and doesn't know why he died.

"Is it possible to know what that thing is by finding out the cause of Hua Li's death?" Du Zhou had an idea, "Little Yu, don't we have a magic book? We can use the magic book to go back to that time."

The other ghosts also thought it was feasible, so they nodded.

Jiang Yu glanced at him, "No, I've tried it, it's this house, it excludes the exploration of it from the outside world, and I can't go back to the previous time here at all. Unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless you find another clue." Jiang Yu stroked her chin, "Hua Li, was your name Hua Li before?"

Hua Li was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "I don't know, I can't remember anything, I chose this name myself... At that time when I woke up, I saw my dead body lying on the ground... the house at that time It’s not what it is now, I remember it was a western-style building at that time, and the house has been changed and changed over the past few decades before it became what it is now.”

"So, it means that everything related to you in this house is gone?"

"Hmm." Hua Li suddenly thought of something - "That's right!"

"what's up?"

Hua Li floated upstairs, and floated down again in less than a minute—"This."

Jiang Yu took it and looked down. It turned out to be a black and white photo, and the one on it was Hua Li. In the photo, Hua Li was wearing pointed buckle high-heeled shoes, and she was wearing a cheongsam style similar to now, but with more decorations on her body. A bit thicker, white fur is draped over the shoulders, and a string of pearl necklaces can be seen from the exposed collar. The pendants should be gemstones, which are the same style as the earrings on the ears, and on the head is a simple cape. But a chic beret——Hua Li is a beauty in the first place, and she dresses up even more amazingly, much prettier than the heroines in current era dramas——

"This is the only photo I have left, I put it away so I keep it." Hua Li said slowly.

"Hua Li, do you think it is possible to have your relatives in this world?" Wen Zhengyue thought of this question.

"My relatives?" Hua Li frowned, "Is it true? It's been so many years and I haven't seen anyone coming..."

"It's not like you don't know that there were many wars in the past few decades. After the end of the foreign war, there was a civil war. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was also chaotic for a while, and the personnel situation changed drastically. Even if you have relatives, it may be difficult to find them for a while, but no. It’s gone.” Xue Qing interjected.

"That's the truth." Shi Qian nodded.

"That's it for now." Jiang Yu pursed her lips and accepted the photo, "Put this photo here with me, and I will find a way."

-----------------------

"This is..." Jiang Yu stared at the thing in front of her with wide eyes.

"This is the laptop I gave you." Xie Liu smiled, "I originally wanted to buy a desktop, but the laptop is more convenient to carry, and you can take it with you when you go out. This is a thank you gift, and the other rewards have already been paid. Your card is on."

Jiang Yu touched the smooth corners of the notebook, "This...isn't it cheap?" He had seen it at the counter before, and this kind of notebook computer was extremely expensive, and he was still debating whether to buy one.

"Is this the collector's edition that Uncle Xie brought back from Germany?" Liang Ding looked at it curiously.

"Well, mine is a new model just this year, so there's no need to replace it so often. I've thought about giving Jiang Yu something, and this is ready-made." Xie Liu laughed, "Jiang Yu, Do you still like it?"

"I like it." Jiang Yu's personality is straightforward, and he didn't tactfully refuse. He just said, "But it's from Germany... I'm afraid I won't use it..." He was not used to high-tech things. In the computer class at school, the contact with the computer is nothing more than the things taught by the teacher. The things in the class are rigid, and of course they are different from the things I usually play.

"The system and software here have been modified. It is in Chinese and simple. It is more convenient for you to use." Xie Liu said - he still had someone specially modify it, because he was afraid that Jiang Yu would be inconvenient to use. .

"Xie Liu, thank you very much." Jiang Yu accepted it generously, "By the way, how is Tan Geng?"

"He is much better now than before. I don't know if he can show his form, and he can maintain his human form for a relatively long time. He no longer dissipates after a period of time like before." Xie Liu was a little helpless when he talked about Tan Geng, and he was no longer a child. , is still a general, why is he so awkward now--"It's just that he wanted to come to school with me, but I refused, so he didn't look very happy."

"You don't necessarily have to lock him in the room." Jiang Yu rummaged through her bag and took out two things from it, "This black umbrella can block the sun, and you can let him stay under the umbrella during the day. It's not a problem, this umbrella is soaked in talisman water, this is not an ordinary thermos, Tan Geng can go in here, you can take him anywhere, staying here is also very important for Tan Geng's cultivation. helpful."

Xie Liu took two things, "Really? Those are really good things."

"Such a good thing...should cost a lot of money?" Liang Ding joked.

"No money." Jiang Yu gave Liang Ding a white look, "I originally wanted to collect money, but Xie Liu is so kind, I would be embarrassed to collect money again." I don't love money so much.

Liang Ding was looked at by Jiang Yu, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Xiao Yu, we have a party after school this afternoon, do you want to come together?"

"No, I have something else to do." Jiang Yu refused.

"What's the matter? Xiaoyu, don't you want to 'open up business'?" Liang Ding began to "coax" again.

"It's fine after developing the business, I have other things to do." Jiang Yu is now troubled by Hua Li's affairs—he only has Hua Li's photos now, and he doesn't know anything else—all these years have passed the...

"Jiang Yu, do you have a new case?" Xie Liu asked curiously.

"Almost." Jiang Yu felt a headache when he thought about it, "Let's settle this matter first, and put the rest aside."

"What case can bother you so much?"

"Now I'm looking for...someone..." Jiang Yu couldn't say that he was looking for a ghost.

"Who? If you tell me, maybe we can help." Liang Ding said immediately, "We definitely know more people here than you."

"You?" Jiang Yu shook his head, "How can you help?" Jiang Yu was already considering whether to go to the cemetery and ask a few old ghosts.

Liang Ding and Xie Liu looked at each other, and they both saw the doubt in each other's eyes.

"That's good, you really have a lot of contacts here, why don't you help me convey this photo and see if there is any news?" Jiang Yu took out Hua Li's photo.

"This photo is a bit old, and it's still black and white." Liang Ding glanced at it and said.

"It's like going to the beach." Xie Liu took a closer look at the photo, "...Hey, I seem to have seen this person somewhere..."

Jiang Yu was startled, and her heart was filled with excitement—"Xie Liu, do you know her? Or someone who looks like her?!"

"Ah Ding, take a look." Xie Liu handed the photo to Liang Ding.

Liang Ding took a closer look, then patted his head, and shouted, "Isn't this Xiaojing's grandma?"
