Chapter 454 New Clues Surface
When talking about this, Old Man Qian suddenly thought of something, and he said to me: "By the way, you asked me to pay attention to something before, which was that strange-shaped sculpture..."
When I heard it, my heart was excited!
"What? Have you seen that sculpture again?!" I immediately raised my spirits and asked.
"I can't say I saw it, I can only say I saw a shadow." Old Man Qian scratched the back of his head, "Yes, it's just a shadow. The outline does look a bit like..."
Old Man Qian kept talking for a long time but didn't get to the point. I was almost anxious because that sculpture was the key to solving the case!
Luo Feng and I couldn't think of its whereabouts even after thinking about it. If Old Man Qian discovers something, wouldn't this be an extremely important clue for solving the case?
Maybe because I was taking it too seriously, Old Man Qian didn't dare to say anything, with a hesitant expression on his face.
Ermiao also urged anxiously: "Old Qian, are you talking?"
Old Man Qian glared at Er Miao: "Who are you calling me, Old Qian? No one is big or small..."
Then, Old Man Qian turned to me and said, "Don't take it too seriously. In fact, I didn't see it very clearly at the time. Maybe I saw it wrong..."
What's going on?!
My heart was really anxious and I was about to get angry. Under Ermiao and I’s questioning, Old Man Qian revealed the truth this time...
It turns out that a few days ago, a client asked the old man Qian to help with things. The client was a woman. Her husband died not long ago. Recently, she has been having nightmares. In her dreams, her husband always comes looking for her with a sinister look.
She, she was very scared, worried that her husband's ghost would be too lonely down there, and wanted to take her away with him, so she wanted to ask old man Qian to help him see if he could perform a Buddhist ritual or something, so as not to let that dead ghost haunt him all the time.
Keep yourself...
This kind of thing is very common among widows, and it doesn't necessarily mean that there are ghosts. Most of them are psychological effects.
I don't care about this kind of thing, and I still blame old man Qian for telling me this. Isn't he talking about monster sculptures? What does this have to do with sculptures?
Old Man Qian was worried by my question, so he had to answer truthfully...
He said that that day he was invited to the house by the woman to take a look. According to the routine, old man Qian took the compass and asked the woman to take him around the house to check if there were any ghosts hiding in the house.
The woman's house was quite big. As they walked, they walked around upstairs and downstairs. When they happened to pass a room, Old Man Qian saw a shadow on the wall!
It was evening at that time, the sun was setting in the west, and the lights had not been turned on indoors. The setting sun could shine into the house from the window.
The shadow I saw should be something placed in front of the window sill, and it happened that Yang Gang cast the shadow on the wall of the corridor.
At first, when Old Man Qian saw the shadow, he thought there was a person standing in the room, and was about to go in and check with the compass, but the hostess stopped Old Man Qian and closed the door.
The woman said that there were some personal belongings in that room and it was inconvenient to enter.
Old Man Qian was here to make money, so of course he had to follow his employer's wishes. If he wasn't allowed in, he wouldn't go in. He didn't care, he just walked around the door and then went downstairs.
After reading it, although there is no problem in the building, old man Qian still needs to perform a spiritual salvation ritual in order to make money.
So Mr. Qian stabbed a woman with paper, pasted a photo of a popular female star on the paper figure's face, and burned it to her dead husband.
It is said that after burning the paper figurines, the deceased husband would have someone to accompany him down there, and he would no longer be lonely, so he would not come up to look for the mistress.
In fact, doing this is a kind of psychological comfort and psychological suggestion. Whether it can be effective depends on different people's opinions.
That woman spent a lot of money to perform such a transcendental ritual, and she should be able to feel more at ease.
Anyway, in recent times, I haven’t come to Old Man Qian for help. It should be effective!
After the business was done, Old Man Qian slowly recalled the shadow on the wall. It seemed to be very similar to the picture of the monster sculpture I showed him. It was shaped like an elongated bowling ball.
It happened that I was here today, and old man Qian said it smoothly. Unexpectedly, I was very serious when he heard it, and kept asking questions.
After listening to what he said, I felt a little discouraged. It seemed that there was nothing practical in what he said, and it was just personal speculation.
Old Man Qian might have seen me disappointed, so he added: "There is one more thing I haven't explained clearly. In fact, you also know that customer..."
"I know him too?" I was stunned for a moment and asked quickly, "Who is it?!"
"Just one look at that woman will make you unforgettable, because she is very beautiful, really beautiful," Old Man Qian laughed dryly, "Do you still remember that time when you and Er Miao had sex in the beauty salon?
Isn’t Xiao Chen helping me with the rituals... Have you remembered... Yes... that’s that woman..."
What?!
It's actually her?!
That Malaysian beauty pageant?!
Indeed, that woman is so beautiful that both men and women will remember her deeply after just one look!
Not only is that woman beautiful, but her background is also very simple!
Luo Feng also asked me to secretly investigate the woman. At that time, I contacted Edward, who provided Luo Feng and me with a lot of gossip.
The reason why Edward was willing to help at that time was that he hoped to cooperate with us and use the power of the police to remove Mrs. Sato from power, so that Edward could take over.
But Luo Feng was very careless. Although he got a lot of information from Edward, he didn't want to help Edward, which made it difficult for me to behave in the middle. I felt that Luo Feng and I worked together to trick Edward.
It was because Luo Feng didn't pay much attention to Edward's plan that he was tricked by a male fan and ended up in a coma and was admitted to the hospital. In the end, he became as crazy as he is now...
As for that beautiful Malay woman, Edward also made it clear that she had contacts with Mrs. Sato, and the relationship between the two was very close.
We have known for a long time that the beautiful woman's former husband, the old man she killed, was in an important position before he retired, and his relatives and friends were also big shots.
No wonder Mrs. Sato has the ability to suspend Luo Feng and even punish him. Maybe she relied on the connections and power in this circle.
However, during this period of time, Mrs. Sato accidentally killed Mr. Sekiguchi and was forced to run away. She could not spare any extra energy to deal with Luo Feng, so Luo Feng escaped.
Mrs. Sato is probably hiding now, and she is also likely to seek help from that beautiful Malay woman.
