Two hours later, the two of them worked together to wipe Tan Zuochen's body clean, help him change into a clean set of pajamas, and still lie on the camp bed that belonged to him.

In front of Su Hao were incense candles and yellow paper.

The two of them knelt on the concrete floor in front of Tan Zuochen. An iron pot next to him was burning a piece of Tan Zuochen's personal clothing.

Su Hao said: "Senior sister, you really don't choose to avoid it?"

Cheng Jiahui shook her head firmly, "We are the master's living relatives. Even if the master turns into a ghost, I believe he will not harm us."

"Well, no matter what you see or hear, don't say anything for a while. I'll be here to ensure your safety."

What Su Hao was performing at the moment was the soul inviting ceremony.

He doesn't guarantee success.

If Tan Zuochen's death is unclear and there is resentment and concern in his heart, then the success rate of the soul-inviting ceremony will be higher. As long as Tan Zuochen's soul is invited back, Su Hao can pass the reincarnation even if the other party doesn't say anything. I caught a glimpse of the scene before his death.

So as to find the murderer through some clues.

Among all the people, only Su Hao was the most adamant that Tan Zuochen died of suicide.

As the time gradually approached 12 o'clock in the evening, Su Hao lit incense candles and yellow paper, and accompanied Cheng Jiahui to kneel down on the ground and perform a ceremony of worship.

A salute.

Two thanks.

Three prayers.

There was still nothing unusual in the bedroom.

Su Hao said calmly: "Master, I know you were killed by someone. If you still have unfulfilled wishes in your heart, please tell me and I will find the murderer and help you avenge your death."

As soon as he finished speaking, a ferocious-looking shadow slowly appeared above Tan Zuochen's body.

Shadow looked at the two people kneeling in front of him. He was stunned for a while, as if he thought of something, and his expression gradually calmed down. He looked around the bedroom, and his eyes finally stopped on the body on the camp bed.

He murmured: "Am I dead?"

A hint of joy appeared on Su Hao's face, "Master, how did you get killed?"

Tan Zuochen slowly turned around, his eyes met Su Hao's, and there was a complicated look on his face, "Ah Hao, can you see me?"

When Su Hao was talking to the air in front of her, Cheng Jiahui had already straightened up her upper body, but she looked around cautiously and saw nothing.

"Master, have you forgotten that I work in the miscellaneous department?"

"No wonder, you are the kind of person with yin and yang eyes."

Tan Zuochen paused and slowly recalled everything that happened in the past few days, "I felt a little uneasy after I came back from the physical examination that day. I always felt that something bad was going to happen. The braised pork I brought back from the road I didn’t even have time to eat or drink beer, so I just lay down and rested.”

"I had several nightmares at night, and in my dreams I always felt like there was a pair of eyes staring at me from a distance."

"This feeling became more obvious after I got up the next day. My eyes were dull, and there were even double images when I saw things. My vision suddenly became weaker. Not only my vision, my sense of taste also became weaker. My favorite food on weekdays The braised pork and beer tasted rancid, and at that time I felt something was wrong with my body."

"After another night, this symptom became more and more obvious. Not only my sense of taste and vision, but also my hearing and touch were affected. My chest felt even tighter, as if there was a big drum beating continuously inside, and I had a splitting headache. , I have lost my appetite for anything to eat.”

"Then I thought of the worst possibility. My symptoms were very similar to those of people who were cursed. If someone paid a lot of money to ask a wizard to cast a curse on me, I would basically be dead. I immediately I think of Hong Sheng. I know him well. He is similar to me in this regard. They are both the kind of people who are determined to retaliate. The difference is that his mind is more narrow-minded than mine, but this matter may not have been done by him. If he’s not that stupid, the people around him don’t know.”

"In order not to inconvenience you, I didn't call you. I only called Manager Park of the Taekwondo Gym to ask for leave."

"That night I cooked a pot of porridge, forced myself to eat it, and finally vomited out half of it. Then I closed the door and lay on the bed. This time my dream was clearer. I dreamed of a tin house, and inside sat a dark man covered in pustules. , he is smiling at me..."

When Tan Zuochen said this, there was even a hint of horror on his face.

"Later, my five senses almost completely disappeared. I couldn't even find my mobile phone to make a call. I could only lie in bed and wait for death."

Tan Zuochen's voice was very calm. It didn't sound like he was talking about his own affairs, but rather like he was talking about a very simple and ordinary thing that happened to other people.

"Master, what is your last wish?"

Tan Zuochen paused and said: "My wishes are all recorded in my diary. You must have read it. In addition, I have one last request, which is not to avenge me. I didn't expect it." There are still wizards in this world who are good at spells. This kind of spell is extremely vicious and can kill people invisible. You cannot afford to offend such people."

When Su Hao heard this, he already had a plan in his mind, "Master, you can go with peace of mind. Jiahui and I will try our best to help you fulfill your two wishes. As for revenge, I will do what we can."

Tan Zuo Chen took one last look at this simple room, with a trace of reluctance in his eyes. He sighed heavily, "I never thought that I, Tan Zuo Chen, would end up like this, let alone that I, Tan Zuo Chen, would end up like this." I have accepted two good disciples, Ah Hao, I know you are a person with secrets, and the secrets in you surprise me again."

"It's up to you to help each other in the days to come. Jiahui is a good girl. You must not let her down. The master is satisfied and goes."

Tan Zuochen's body became lighter and lighter, and finally disappeared into the room.

He lived very tiredly, but walked very easily.

It wasn't until Tan Zuochen left that Cheng Jiahui looked at Su Hao blankly, "Ah Hao, is the master back? Did you say these words to the master just now?"

Su Hao nodded, "Master has left. He asked us not to avenge him. He died under a vicious spell."

"A curse? What should we do now?"

Su Hao gritted his teeth and said: "Any behavior will leave traces. We can't deal with the wizard who cast the curse for the time being, but we can find the murderer who paid someone to cast the curse."

"As for now, let's have a good sleep first and be mentally recharged before we can avenge our master."

Su Hao helped Cheng Jiahui to the sofa in the hall and forced her to lie down and rest.

He came outside the door alone, lit a cigarette, and thought about punching a mole first.

The other party is from the Feng Shui circle in Hong Kong and has some connections.

"Who calls me in the middle of the night? Do you know that the girl next to me is very unhappy?"

A mole's cursing voice came from the phone.

Su Hao said directly: "I want to ask you a piece of news, the news fee is 2 yuan."

When money was mentioned, a mole suddenly became less sleepy and said, "It's Ah Hao. Can you tell me what the news is?"

"Is there anyone in Hong Kong who is good at casting spells? The kind of spell that can gradually deprive people of their five senses and kill people invisibly? He died about three days after being successfully cursed."

The sound of someone getting out of bed instantly sounded on the phone, and then the sound of a lighter lighting up a cigarette. After a while, the voice of a mole came over, "Have you been cursed?"

"It's not me, it's a friend of mine who is already dead."

A mole took a breath of air and said, "Ah Hao, this thing is very evil. It belongs to the most eccentric sect. I don't know much about it, but I can ask someone to help you find out."

"It doesn't matter, I'll transfer the money to you later, and you tell me what you know."

"The more mysterious and vicious the witchcraft is, the greater the price it pays to perform it. The spell you just mentioned that can deprive people of their five senses should be the Five Ghost Curse spread in Siam. If you want to cast the Five Ghost Curse, you must meet There are several conditions. The first is to get the birth date of the cursed person. The second is to get something from the cursed person, including nails, hair and blood. This thing is called a medium. The third is to get the cursed person at the same time. There’s a price to pay.”

Su Hao continued to ask: "What price does the curse have to pay?"

The more powerful the witchcraft, the greater the price paid. This is also in line with the principle of mutual restraint and conservation of all things in the world. Otherwise, the person who casts the curse would not be invincible.

"For a witchcraft like this that can kill someone within three days, the price paid by the person who casts the curse is definitely not small. It may require a finger on his body, or an arm, or half a pound of blood, a certain amount of life, etc. "

"Is there a gathering place for Siamese people on Hong Kong Island? There are many tin houses built locally."

"A person like this who is proficient in vicious witchcraft will definitely not enter Hong Kong through normal channels. Most of them come here by stealing DU to avoid trouble. I remember that there are many pick-up points for DU sneaking in the outlying islands. Most people coming from Southeast Asia Xanadu is over there, but the outlying island area is very large and there are many islands, so it’s hard to find it for a while.”

"Okay, I'm asking someone else to ask."

Su Hao was about to hang up the phone.

A mole gave final instructions on the phone: "Ah Hao, this kind of people are like broken earthenware jars, the kind that don't care about life. We are porcelain, and we still have a lot of good times to enjoy. There is no need to fight with this kind of people. Listen to me, it’s best to stay away from this kind of person.”

"In case you encounter someone who has lost money and avoided disaster, aren't you a police officer? You can contact the border guards to check their documents. If they sneaked in, they can be deported directly."

Su Hao took a slow breath and said, "I know, I was just asked to help inquire. I don't want to offend these people."

After hanging up the phone, Su Hao sneered, isn't it just magic?

So this time, let's fight evil with evil.

As it happens, he also knows a certain kind of magic.

This time, he wasn't going to act as a police officer.

Because the identity of the police will be restricted.

Chapter 187 Follow the clues and take a two-pronged approach

In addition to having to bear a certain backlash price to activate this kind of spell, there must be some unknown prices or secrets, otherwise these people would have become the masters of the world long ago.

Now they are targeting Tan Zuochen for revenge, and they may target Cheng Jiahui or Su Hao in the future.

After all, this weird way of death has completely broken the scope of scientific knowledge. If you are dead, you are dead. It is useless to call the police because it is difficult to find clues. In other words, their identity as a police officer is not necessarily safe, but it is just unusual. People are slightly safer.

Even for the sake of own life safety, these people must be found and eliminated.

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, there was news from Boge.

"Ah Hao, I have found Jiang Xiaoya. This little girl is very wary and unwilling to give me her phone number unless you convince her in advance. Why do you want the phone? She is worried about encountering a scammer."

Su Hao paused and decided to tell the truth.

If you want to withdraw the money from Tan Zuochen's passbook, you need the cooperation of this girl. As Tan Zuochen's only bloodline in the world, she has the right to know.

Whether she likes it or not.

Thinking of this, Su Hao asked: "Are you with her now?"

Brother Bo said, "I'm right in front of their fish stall."

"Can you let her listen to the phone?"

"no problem."

A moment later, a cold voice came from the phone, "Hey, who are you? Do I know you?"

"I am Detective Su Hao from the Kowloon City Branch's Crime Unit. When I was investigating an accidental death case, I discovered that the deceased had a daughter, who is you."

"Are you kidding me, lying to me about your identity as a police officer? Believe it or not, I'm going to call you and complain."

For any adult with a normal IQ, if someone suddenly told her that you have a biological father who has never been seen before, the tone would probably not be very good.

Su Hao also understood this, so he directly enlarged the move to emphasize the key points.

"The deceased's surname was Chen, nicknamed Tan Leg Chen. He left a bankbook, which is estimated to contain hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars. Based on the clues left in his diary during his lifetime, we found you. As his only heir, we hope If you can cooperate with our police to take out the money in the passbook, there is a high probability that the money will be inherited by you, and at the same time, you can give your biological father his final farewell."

Sure enough, Jiang Xiaoya's breathing on the other side of the phone changed when she heard that there was a benefit, "Isn't this a new scam you made?"

Su Hao said sharply: "Your mother gave birth to a child before we were married, and then took you to remarry when you were seven or eight years old. You don't have any impression at all, do you?"

"Or did you just jump out of the stone? Brother Bo and I know each other. If you come over, you can ask him to bring you over. Your father passed away yesterday. His death is unknown. He will be sent to the crematorium for cremation within three days at most. , this is your last chance to see him, think about it yourself."

Bo Ge's supporting voice came from the other end of the phone, "I can prove that the person you are talking to is a policeman, and your father and I knew each other before he was alive. The newly opened stall selling cooked meat in the Great World Market is mine. , I can run away but the monk cannot run away from the temple, you always believe me, right?"

Jiang Xiaoya paused, and the rhythm in her voice was obviously messed up, "Let me think about it carefully first."

The call came back to Brother Bo, "I didn't expect that she is Tan Zuochen's daughter. I really didn't expect it. Tan Zuochen hid it so closely, I thought he was an old bachelor."

"This little girl's face changed just now. She probably believes it. She will most likely go back to her mother to testify."

"I will take this opportunity to bring you the butcher's knife."

Su Hao said politely: "I can only make a trip to Brother Bo."

Bo Ge laughed and said: "You have helped me so much, but you are just saying this. You are still my client now. You have to prepare 30 Hong Kong dollars first, and I will not give you any discount."

Su Hao hung up the phone.

After discussing with Cheng Jiahui for a while, she asked her to go back and contact the people in the Islands District Bureau first, and ask them to provide information about the Siamese residential areas in the Islands District. This can be regarded as assisting in the investigation within the same system.

At the same time, contact a lawyer to deal with the bankbook left by Tan Zuochen and the paternity test issue with Jiang Xiaoya.

As for Su Hao, he dialed the phone again, this time it was Johnston.

If you have connections, you must use them, otherwise they won't show any value if left alone. Now with Su Hao's connections, it is impossible to fight alone.

He decided to conduct the investigation in two ways, one exposed and the other secreted. Liu Sen and Cheng Fei investigated in the open. After they alerted the snake, Johnston would start from the dark. This might lead to unexpected gains.

As the biggest suspects, Hong Sheng's side is the only one with the motive to commit the crime. However, it is not convenient to summon them directly before getting the exact evidence. There is no problem in asking a private detective to take action.

"Hey, Brother Zhuang, please help check a few people. It's urgent."

"Sir Su, you haven't called me for a while. I thought there was a new conspiracy."

"This is a mystery, but it's quite dangerous. You should not come to the scene."

Su Hao wasn't even afraid of ghosts. Johnston also knew the meaning of 'quite dangerous' in Su Hao's words, and there was a hint of caution in his voice, "Can you tell me who you need my help to investigate?"

"Hong Sheng, a master of Hong Quan, has a certain reputation in the Hong Kong Island fighting circle. He was previously a master hired by the Taekwondo Hong Kong Island Alliance. He has three apprentices. The first and second apprentices both run film and television companies. The third apprentice I was doing black boxing underground before, and I need your help to investigate Hong Sheng and his three apprentices."

"No problem, as long as they are in Hong Kong Island, I can find them, but this time I have to pay for official business."
