Shen Yin looked out the window. She had been to Lin City before. Although she only stayed for a few days, the local people had countless legends about this dead leaf forest.
She has even heard a dozen different versions.
But they all have the same approach, that is, this place is haunted, and it is extremely haunted.
This was also the reason why she chose to meet Shen Qingwan here. What Ji Nuan had experienced back then was what Shen Qingwan had to experience now.
"I don't know either."
Shen Yin replied in a low voice, and then pushed his hat down.
The driver drove forward a little further, gritted his teeth and said, "I can't drive in, you can get off the car nearby."
Shen Yin said nothing and just handed over another two hundred yuan.
"This, this is not about money!"
"Master, life is at stake, please help me."
In a word, the driver's back was sweating a little, and he didn't dare to look back at Shen Yin. He could only accelerate and step on the accelerator. When he saw Shen Qingwan's car stopped, he immediately stepped on the brakes.
"Get out of the car quickly, you don't need to pay for the ride!"
"Thank you then."
He looked like he had seen a ghost, reversed the front of the car, and the car quickly disappeared into the night.
Shen Yin stood there and looked at the withered grass under her feet. She thought the name "Withered Leaf Forest" was a bit sad before, but now she tasted it carefully and found that it was quite suitable for burying people.
In autumn, the grass is covered with dead grass and nothing can be seen.
A chill rose in her eyes, she looked at the car in the distance, sneered, and walked forward slowly.
She did not approach Shen Qingwan, walked to a big tree, squatted down slowly, and while observing Shen Qingwan's appearance, dimmed the screen of her phone, and then sent her the next message.
"Miss Shen, please do as I say. If there is any deviation, your Shen family will just wait and pay another 1 billion."
Shen Qingwan looked at the phone screen and shouted angrily, "Who are you and what do you want to do!"
Bang.
Something fell from the tree.
Shen Yin sent her another audio clip of a female ghost downloaded from the Internet. The sound wasn't too scary, but in the dark night and the surrounding forest with dead trees, it was really eerie.
As soon as Shen Qingwan clicked on the voice message, she screamed and threw the phone away.
She cried on the spot for a long time. Shen Yin could not hear what it was exactly, but her frightened screams seemed even more terrifying in the night-filled forest.
When Shen Qingwan had cried enough, she picked up the phone again, looked at the words on the screen, and stood up slowly.
That was a series of virtual numbers given to her by Shen Yin.
As long as you call, you may be able to contact the charitable organization and get this huge donation back.
But at the end, Shen Yin added kindly, "Once you fail, you will bear the consequences."
Shen Qingwan gritted her teeth and thought for more than ten minutes before dialing the number. She had to turn over.
She wants to trample under her feet all those who look down on her.
The person who answered the phone spoke the local language, but Shen Qingwan couldn't understand it, so she could only communicate with the other party in English. After some negotiation, the other party said several more words. Shen Qingwan didn't understand the specific meaning, but It seems that the money can be returned.
"We will send someone there within three days."
The other party only said this and ended the conversation.
Shen Qingwan clutched her phone and took a deep breath, "Okay, that's good."
If she waits for three more days, she won't have to suffer like this.
She looked around and sent another message to the anonymous number, "Who are you and what do you want to do?"
"I'm just like you, I'm just a person who hates Shen Yin."
A simple sentence, but Shen Qingwan's face looking at the phone screen became very ferocious and terrifying, "Then why don't we join forces and make that bitch disappear from this world forever."
Shen Yin hid behind the tree, watched Shen Qingwan get into the car, and replied again.
"You want her dead?"
Shen Qingwan was so tortured by the 500 million that she lost her mind and even believed in the person behind the number.
"Yes, she will block my way if she is alive."
If it was a few months ago, then she was referring to Ji Sixen.
But now, Shen Yin has completely escaped from Ji Sichen, and this reason is no longer valid.
Shen Yin had been thinking about this matter and walked out from the dead leaf forest alone. Occasionally there would be a cold wind blowing behind him, and Shen Qingwan's car could no longer be seen in front of him.
It's not that Shen Yin isn't afraid, but after experiencing the evil schemes in this world, he understands that when ghosts exist, no one is afraid.
Why did she block Shen Qingwan's path?
Shen Yin called the private detective and he fell asleep.
"Please check what time it is now. I also need to take a break, okay? Overtime pay will be charged separately!"
"I want to know if Shen Qingwan did anything unreasonable before going to Beijing, or if she met anyone special."
There was silence for a moment.
"Yes, I will send it to you."
This private detective worked very efficiently. After Shen Yin hung up the phone, he only took a few steps and received several photos.
She zoomed in and paused.
Zhao Jie!
Shen Qingwan had met Zhao Jie before, a few days before she returned to Huqian Village.
Thinking of what Shen Fan asked her to investigate, Shen Yin felt that she was about to touch a secret that had been hidden for many years.
After she returned to Lincheng Hotel, she stayed awake all night and imagined several possibilities, but she rejected them all.
Shen Qingwan is just too greedy and impulsive, but she is not a brainless person.
Like a mad dog, she must die. There must be a reason behind this that makes her risk everything. What could it be?
In the next two days, Shen Yin devoted himself to work, carefully preparing for the signing and press conference in accordance with the company's requirements.
Mr. Liu, who was discussing cooperation with her, was indeed very difficult to deal with, and he tried every means to try to eat Shen Yin's tofu, but she skillfully resolved the situation.
After getting the contract signed by the other party reluctantly, Shen Yin just stepped out of the elevator when he saw the department manager of his company scolding a cleaner from a distance.
Shen Yin was going to walk over directly, but saw the reflection on the glass and stopped.
What a coincidence, the scolded cleaner turned out to be Zhao Jie!
But she looked in very bad condition and her foot was lame.
"Manager Zhang, there is no need to scold you so harshly. If this elder sister has not done well, she can just do it again. All human beings have dignity." Shen Yin walked over and said a few words of help.
Zhao Jie's pupils widened as soon as she heard her voice.
Manager Zhang didn't give her face, but he had to give Shen Beichen face.
So he waved his hand and said, "Be more careful in the future."
After he left, Shen Yin immediately grabbed Zhao Jie who was about to escape, "The money the Shen family gives you should be enough for you to have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life. Why do you work here? And..."
"I beg you, don't come to me again, I really don't know anything!"
Zhao Jie cried and almost fell to her knees before Shen Yin.
Shen Yin looked around and pressed her shoulder, "Calm down first. Let me ask you, has she come to see you?"
