Octagonal Building
I have a bold guess. The female ghost that was beaten up by the Taoist priest seemed to have deliberately lured me into the archives room and then gave me the files. If that's the case, then could it be that she wanted to tell me that the death of the Zhang Corporation had something to do with the files?
Although I knew that this was just my guess, this guess defeated all other possibilities. Therefore, I would rather believe that I wasn't making this up. If I followed this line of investigation, I would definitely find something!
Thinking of this, I began to study the files. In the middle of the night, staring at the files of 30 to 40 dead people, I kept feeling a little creepy. I kept feeling that the woman in the picture would reach out from the tablet and grab my throat.
Just like that, I continued to observe. However, I couldn't find any clues from these files if I looked at them alone. Therefore, I memorized the basic information of the people who died every year.
Then, he wrote them down on a piece of paper and compared the information of the eight victims each year. Their ages were similar, and they were basically all girls under the age of 26. However, if he compared them year by year, the average age was not the same, so the age did not mean anything!
Looking at their appearances, they were not necessarily beautiful. Sometimes, they were even very ugly girls. This eliminated the possibility that it had something to do with sex!
Then, what exactly did they have in common?
As I read, the sky brightened. My eyes were sore, but I couldn't find a suitable answer. The next morning, I fell asleep on the chair with Xia Lei's tablet in my hand!
Xia Bing screamed the moment she woke up."Ah…"
I was awakened by Xia Bing's scream. At this moment, my red and swollen eyes looked at her."What's wrong?"
" Why do I feel like there's something in my stomach? It's bloating…" Sun Bing roared.
I glanced at her stomach. It seemed to be swelling up. I didn't know how to tell her, so I replied,"It'll be fine if you go to the toilet!"
Sun Bing was so scared that her expression became abnormal. After all, Xia Lei was like this at the beginning. On the third day, she became pregnant. She was afraid that she would be like her!
When I suggested that she go to the toilet, she disappeared!
A few minutes later, she came back with a bitter face and said,"I'm so stifled. Should I…"
"Nonsense!" I interrupted her and glared at her reproachfully."Stop being paranoid. It's not that coincidental.”
After lying, I became even more anxious. I said,"You guys rest for a while. I'll go buy some breakfast!”
After saying that, I left in a hurry. I was afraid that Sun Bing would ask this question. I was not good at lying. Fortunately, Sun Bing did not know me well. Those who were familiar with me could tell at a glance whether I was lying or not!
After buying some breakfast, I returned to the hospital and let the two of them finish their breakfast in the hospital. Xia Lei saw my tired face and red and swollen dark circles."Small One, go back and rest for a while. I'm fine!”
I pondered for a while. Anyway, the time of death of the deceased was at night. It was useless for me to stay now. Therefore, after bidding farewell to the two of them, I left!
I took a taxi back and wanted to go back and rest for a while, but I received a call from Bai Haixia. She said directly,"Small One, are you still sleeping in? I'm near your house. Come out quickly!”
I was a little speechless. I looked out the window. I was almost there, so I didn't say anything else. I agreed to a few words and hung up!
Outside the cemetery, Bai Haixia greeted me as soon as I got off the car.""You went out so early?"
I dragged my exhausted body and replied,"Aren't you here too?"
" I'm different…" Bai Haixia noticed my red and swollen eyes and asked,""Hey, what happened to your eyes? Didn't you sleep last night?”
I opened my mouth wide and replied," In our line of work, how can we sleep at night? I can't take it anymore. I'll go back and sleep for a while. If there's anything else, we'll talk in the afternoon!"”
I was about to leave when Bai Haixia stopped me.""I really have something to tell you. Yesterday, the shop was about to close, and a group of men from all over the country came to visit you. I saw that they were fierce, so I was afraid that they were collecting protection fees or something.”
" Uh…Let's talk about it in the afternoon…" I was so tired that I almost fell asleep!”
As soon as I finished speaking, my eyes suddenly flashed. I stared at Bai Haixia and asked,"What did you just say?"
" I need to talk to you about something..." Bai Haixia replied.
"No, what did he say after that?"
"There are five burly men looking for you!"
"No, you seemed to say…what did you say? Tell me the exact words!”
"Uh…"
……
After a while, I recalled Bai Haixia's original words. Yes, I got a hint from her original words." North and South of the Yangtze River ". I suddenly remembered that I had checked the age, appearance, birthday, and so on of the deceased, but I forgot to check their hometown!
It was as if I had gone crazy. My eyes were wide open, but there was no expression at all. The files of the deceased appeared in my mind. I began to compare their hometown, ancestral home, and so on!
Then, I discovered a fatal problem. These dead people actually came from all over the world. Therefore, I squatted on the ground and used a stone to draw the Three Blessings on the ground!
Bai Haixia couldn't help but ask,""What are these? Why are they all octagonal?”
That's right. I took a closer look. The ancestral homes of these dead girls were connected together. Every year, there was an octagonal image, an octagonal building, and an octagonal death matrix…
I was as excited as if I had discovered a new continent. I immediately jumped into the car and shouted,"Take me to the Zhang Corporation!"
"Zhang Corporation?" Bai Haixia looked at me in surprise.
I knew that she must have too many questions for me at this moment, but this matter couldn't be explained in a few words, so I replied,"I'll explain it to you slowly in the future!"
Bai Haixia was a docile girl. She knew that she should not ask too many questions, so she quickly got into the car."Zhang Tianhua's company?"
"Yes!"
Bai Haixia started the car and stepped on the accelerator, heading straight for the Zhang Corporation. She saw that I was thinking about something along the way, but she didn't say a word. She was a qualified driver for once!
When we arrived at the entrance of the Zhang Corporation, I looked up at the octagonal building. Then, I took Bai Haixia and walked around the entire building. At this time, I realized that the direction of this building was exactly the same as the direction I drew. I knew that this was definitely not a coincidence!
However, with my Taoist knowledge, I simply couldn't explain the relationship between them. So what if I found them? I squatted on the ground bald. Since I couldn't even connect the Octagon Tower to the eight girls who died every year, it was easier said than done to crack it!
Bai Haixia couldn't hold it in any longer when she saw how excited I was and how bald I was. She asked tentatively,""Can you tell me what happened to you?”
I wanted to share it with her, but I thought about the conflict between Bai Haixia and the class monitor yesterday. If I told her about it, she would definitely be unhappy. After pondering for a while, I said,"It's nothing. Someone just invited me to take a look at the feng shui here!”
"Oh!" Bai Haixia believed my lie and continued,""I see that you're so tired that you can't even look human. Let's go back and rest for a while!”
I nodded. There was no use staying here now. I should go back and rest for a while to calm my mind. I'll think of a way at night!
On the way back, I once again witnessed the destruction of the Octagon Building. Some of the factories and whatnot had become abandoned and tattered.
At the same time, I asked Bai Dahai what he had been busy with for the past two days. Bai Haixia replied,""Yesterday, brother brought a group of people to the countryside with some tools!”
'I think Bai Dahai must have gone to clean up the coffin on Broken Bridge. This person knows his limits. Of course, he knows more than me. Otherwise, how could his business be doing so well?
"But then again, the matter of the Bai family can be considered to have been completely resolved. This makes me feel very gratified.
Bai Haixia pulled me to the Taoist cultural center. She originally wanted me to have a good rest, but the five people from yesterday came again. Hearing their emphasis, they were indeed from all over the world. One was Chuan Yin, one was Hokkien, one was Cantonese, one was Beijing accent, and the last one looked like a Tibetan.
They all had bitter expressions on their faces. As soon as they entered, they asked me,"Is your boss back yet?”
I found it difficult to answer this question. After a moment of silence, I asked,"What do you want?"
"I can't tell you anything, you little brat. Hurry up and call your boss!”I'm talking about Donald!
Bai Haixia giggled and replied,""This is our boss. If there's anything, just tell him!”
"You?" The few of them spoke in different languages, but they were all surprised at the same time.
Then, the five of them looked at each other and said with a desolate expression,"I thought it was a senior expert…Boss, let's go!”
Chuan Yin pondered for a moment and said,""Since you're here, let's give it a try!”
I saw that they didn't trust my ability. I had already thought of this before, so I shouted into the room,"Doll, serve the tea!"
With that, a paper doll slowly walked over with a teapot and a teacup.
I calmly said,"Please have some tea. If there's anything, tell me slowly!"”
The few burly men were so scared that they wiped off their cold sweat. Seeing the paper doll raise the teacup high, they hurriedly caught it without saying anything!
After the paper doll left, one of them began to speak,"There have been a lot of strange things recently. Every night, we hear the sound of copper coins passing by on the roof of our company…Every year during this season, all kinds of bad luck and all kinds of troubles follow. We're about to go bankrupt.!”
"Uh…you hear strange sounds at night, right?”I confirmed it once again. After getting an affirmative answer, I said,"Leave your address and go back first. I'll come back to see you at night!”
After leaving the address, they all walked out of my shop listlessly. At this time, I looked at the five addresses. Why were they all near the Octagon Building?
" Wait…" I ran to the door and called those people back!
