The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 3 Tan Ren
Don't say I don't understand, the middle-aged woman is also puzzled, so she asked bluntly: "What a dragon, why ask for directions? Are you doing business or not? I just want to find my daughter?"

Tan Ren's expression remained the same, he was still sharp and unsmiling, his voice was steady, and he replied unhurriedly: "Ask for directions is to tell you where your daughter is, you can find someone by yourself, pay a deposit first, and after you find someone, Then you settle the rest, the total amount is 1 yuan. One-stop is to return your daughter to you within one month, and you will receive 20 yuan in one lump sum. Choose one."

The middle-aged woman was stunned.

I was also taken aback.

The reason why she was stunned was not because of the price, but because of the two options given by Tan Ren, a message was clearly conveyed, that is: she must be able to find her daughter!He didn't say that he couldn't find a category, but let the woman choose how to find it.

The middle-aged woman's lips trembled, and her eyes were filled with disbelief and excitement: "Can you really find it?"

Tan Ren said: "The premise is that you have money."

"I have!" The woman nodded immediately.

Tan Ren also nodded: "Then choose one."

At this time, she hesitated, and said: "I choose to ask for directions, you can just tell me the place, in case I can't find it..."

Tan Ren interrupted her: "There is no chance, there will be a contract signed in advance, and the deposit only needs to be one thousand." 1000 yuan is nothing to a person who is eager to find a girl. The other party agreed, and Tan Ren said: " Okay, come here at eight o'clock in the evening to get the materials and sign the contract."

After sending that woman away, all I could think about was where did Tan Ren get such confidence?Is he a liar?I was also tricked into a criminal gang?

When I was thinking about these questions, Tan Ren asked me: "You were recruited by Zhou Xuanye?"

I nodded. To be honest, facing such a serious boss, I was still very stressed.

But to my surprise, he just nodded and said: "Work hard, and you can earn extra money if you have the opportunity." Immediately afterwards, he pressed the piece of paper written by the woman into a locked folder, Tan Ren went to take a bath by himself.

At eight o'clock that night, when the woman came over, Tan Ren took a contract for her to sign, and then gave her an address, and the woman left.

After receiving a deposit of 1000 yuan, the job seemed to be over like this.

Everything in this office has an unusual feeling, but unfortunately, I can't find the reason for it.

Forget it, for the sake of money, let's do it first.

I thought this boss was very difficult to get along with, but then I found out that he is a serious and quiet person, and he will never be as petty and critical as other bosses I have met before. Basically, what do I do in the office? He won't even ask.Whether it’s cleaning carefully, or simply playing games, or lying on the sofa and being lazy, it’s almost as if I’m invisible, as long as he has something to tell me, it’s fine to do it carefully, and...he rarely finds things for me Do.

As the saying goes, it is easy to go from simple to extravagant, and difficult to go from extravagant to simple. After one month, the hard work I have honed in my miserable life has almost been exhausted, especially at the end of the month, the 4000 yuan that was transferred to the account on time , I feel very ashamed.

Cleaning the office every day is almost all my work.Most of the jobs that include food and housing, the employees have to cook for the boss, but after eating a meal I cooked, Tan Yan commented: "Pig food." After that, he always ordered takeaway, of course, takeaway The money is also paid by the boss.

That is to say, as an employee, I only need to clean the office every day, and then I will get food and accommodation, with a monthly income of [-]. For a person like me, I have almost reached the pinnacle of my life.

The easier things come, the more uneasy people feel. This uneasiness finally appeared at the beginning of September.

That day, that woman knocked on our door again. I don't know if she came to pay the final payment, or if her daughter was found.However, when she came in, she looked very strange, revealing a kind of uneasiness. She smiled at me and said, "I'll settle the payment."

Payment?

I was secretly surprised, did I really find it?
Tan Ren has never even been out of the house, how did he know the address of the little girl?
Tan Ren was still sleeping at the moment, out of curiosity, I lowered my voice and asked her: "Did you find your daughter?"

She looked a bit reluctant, nodded and said: "I found it." I could see that something happened to her, and she didn't want to say more to me, an outsider, so I didn't continue to ask, just asked: "Xinxin is okay. ?"

I have a good impression of little girls, of course not because I love children, but as I said before, in orphanages, there are more abnormal children than normal children, and among normal children, there are more girls than boys. There are many children.

I don't know why those parents would throw their daughters away, but I grew up in such an environment, looking at those little sisters who called me brother and would throw themselves into my arms and act like a baby, I think they are cute little angels.

It was probably my name, which warmed the woman's heart. She said, "Xinxin is fine." After a pause, she said, "Is Boss Tan there? I, I still have something to ask him."

Tan Ren is sleeping right now, I thought about it and told her to wait a while, then knocked on Tan Ren's door: "Boss, we have guests."

"Get out!" Something hit the door, and the door shook. I forgot to mention that the boss was angry.

The boss is money, I don't get angry with money, people who get angry with money are idiots.

So I knocked again: "Boss, it's the elder sister who looked for my daughter last time to settle the payment."

Tan Yan finally opened the door, and said with a dark face, "Let her wait."

This eldest sister is very patient, perhaps because she was impressed by Tan Ren's ability, so she really waited in a good manner. After a full hour and a half, Tan Ren woke up, came out refreshed, and sat down on the boss's chair. , said: "The person found?"

The other party nodded, his eyes flickered, and he took out a thick bundle of hundred-yuan bills from his bag. It was the first time I saw so much cash, and I couldn't help but stare blankly.The full amount is [-], and she paid [-] before, which means that [-] should be settled.

But there is such a thick pile of money on the table, more than [-], right?
Tan Ren raised his eyebrows, his expression was a little surprised, and he said, "What do you mean?"

The middle-aged woman looked at me and said, "I still have a personal matter I would like to ask for your help. You must help me. I will give you whatever amount you want. The money will not be kept in the account, just a little bit of kindness." Obviously, this matter is not Willing to let a third party know, I touched my nose, consciously preparing to avoid it, but at this moment, Tan Ren said: "This is my buddy, you can trust me, so tell me what you want." His voice was neither too fast nor too slow. There is no joy or anger, but the sense of oppression is very strong.

To be honest, I was quite moved when I heard this, and I felt like being treated as one of my own.

The middle-aged woman hesitated for a moment, finally gritted her teeth, and said, "If you can find my daughter, you will be able to find them. Help me find them. I will make life worse for those two beasts!"

Two beasts?

Who?
Why make the other party's life worse than death?
The woman gritted her teeth and bared her eyes, which was very different from before.

Immediately afterwards, she began to talk about the reasons for looking for someone.

According to the address guidance Tan Ren gave her, she really found Gu Xin, but...the once lovely daughter has become a disabled person.His legs were broken and he was begging on the road.Apparently, her daughter was abducted by criminal gangs, then made disabled, forced to beg for money from criminal gangs, and suffered cruel abuse.

She thought about reporting to the police, but this middle-aged woman also has some contacts in her family. After some inquiries, she found out that this gang is very powerful, and no one in her family can move it at all.

In other words, she cannot avenge this revenge.

If you can't shake the big tree, there are still small trees, so you have to get justice, right?

At that time, it was two gangsters who abducted Gu Xin, and it was these two gangsters who resold their daughter to this huge criminal gang.

What she was looking for were these two bastards.

As she spoke, she grabbed Tan Ren's hand excitedly and said, "You must have a way! You must!"

I was dumbfounded, I didn't expect that there would be such an inside story, when I thought of the cute little girl with braids in the photo, whose legs were artificially broken to beg, and now she is a disabled person, I suddenly felt as if After a hammer hit, he couldn't help but said: "These scumbags! Why don't you call the police and kill that criminal gang to save more people!"

The middle-aged woman glanced at me, then smiled wryly, and said, "Young man, thank you for your kindness, but..." She shook her head, ignored me, and just looked at Tan Ren.

Tan Ren withdrew his hand and wiped it with a wet tissue beside him. During this period of time, I observed a phenomenon. This boss has contact cleanliness. He is quite normal in other aspects, but he hardly has any physical contact with others. , Once in contact, they will wash their hands or wipe their hands immediately, which is very strange.

Immediately afterwards, Tan Ren said: "Sorry, I can't do anything, I can't help you with this." Then, he gestured to the money on the table, and said to me: "Nine thousand, and the rest will be returned to this lady."
