Postmortem Appointment - C67
It just so happened that the fake Jin Weilong was outside the sickroom. I dragged him to a nearby restaurant to eat, making him say what he had to say at the same time.
The fake Jin Weilong was Xu Liang, after he heard that I was willing to help, he immediately shook his head and laughed bitterly: “If that Miss Bai of yours were to help, maybe he would have a bit of a chance of winning, you know less about the Taoism Arts than me, going would be a waste.” I coldly snorted. What I hate the most is for others to say that my ability is insufficient. This made me extremely unconvinced.
“If you have cultivation experience, then naturally you have your own solutions, but if you don’t have a Taoism Arts, then you also don’t have a Taoism Arts. Isn’t it true that everyone in this world knows profound arts, but many things have still been solved?”
I hastily replied. Although I already knew that Xu Liang’s matter would be very troublesome, but since I had already decided to help, then the danger wouldn’t matter anymore.
After Xu Liang heard this, he let out a soft sigh and said, “Since you want to know this, then I’ll tell you one thing. In any case, I only have two choices left to me in the future, soul shattering and reincarnation, Xu Liang is no longer in this world, so everything that I have should no longer be a secret.
Although I couldn’t feel it, I could feel the sadness in Xu Liang’s words. He was probably very reluctant to leave this world, it’s a pity that this world no longer belonged to him, no matter what, he shouldn’t stay here.
Five years ago, I started a equipment processing plant with a fellow villager. The location and planning of the factory were all designed by me, because I know some mystical arts and I can look at feng shui, but the funds and things were all owned by my partner, Zhang Luo. When the factory started work, the Feng Shui bureau I set up worked, we made a lot of money, but we were often at odds because of a lot of things.
When Xu Liang said till here, he could not help but let out a long sigh. I could hear how regretful he was.
Many things happened within days of being frozen by ice. If the root of the problem didn’t cause so many conflicts, then there definitely wouldn’t have been such a result in the future.
“Originally, we had four or six points of income in the factory, but only later did I find out that this guy had to secretly take away a sum of money every month. The remaining money is the portion that I get. That night, we had a drink at the factory, and this guy poisoned the wine! ”
“How dare he poison you to death? Did no one discover it? It is easy to find out whether it is poison or an accident just by looking at the corpse!”
When I heard this, I couldn’t help but look at Xu Liang in shock. Although I am also in the business world, dealing with big and small bosses every day, I have never heard of someone actually killing their partners in order to get more money. This move is too ruthless, and too easily exposed.
“No one needs to find out, because everyone disappeared because of me. My partner even sent out word that the money in the safe had disappeared, thus confirming my crime of sneaking away with the money. He then pushed away all the suspicions on himself and took over my half in peace!”
Xu Liang let out a long sigh, raised his wine cup, and gulped all the wine down his throat, as he laughed bitterly.
“Since you were drinking in the factory and no one saw you missing, it’s very likely that your body is still in the factory. Where’s the factory then?”
I mused for a moment before coming up with the most likely reason. Thus, I hastily asked.
“That factory was near the suburbs and was abandoned last year. I suspect that my partner was afraid of exposing his secret, so he did it. But even so, I still can’t enter because he set a barrier around the factory, but you can enter!”
Xu Liang nodded his head, it must have been a long time since he was last here, if I could think of him, he would have already thought of it.
“Since that’s the case, let’s go there today. Since it’s abandoned, even if you can’t enter, I can still enter. Show me the design of the factory, I’ll help you look for it!”
I put a piece of pork in my mouth and laughed.
“Actually, I’ve been thinking about it. If there’s no change to the map after I die, my corpse can only be hidden in these few places. After you go in, just check these places!”
After Xu Liang heard what I said, his eyes started to light up, and he anxiously took out a few blueprints from his chest pocket and handed it to me.
These few pieces of paper looked very old and must have been flipped through many times by him. I simply looked at the locations marked out by him with red ink.
In a few minutes, I had almost memorized everything. Actually, this was nothing. I had been cleaning such a factory many times, so I had some basic knowledge of the interior structure of the factory.
Xu Liang and I studied the places that he marked out, and happened to finish the meal. After I bought the bill, I immediately followed Xu Liang to the factory.
Following the route that Xu Liang pointed out, I drove for two hours and arrived at the factory. Just from the first glance, I felt that this place was simply too desolate, if Xu Liang did not point out the location of the abandoned factory, it would be difficult to find this place.
I looked at the surroundings and asked worriedly, “Why do I feel that it is even colder than the Underworld?”
“This place is my kind. A year ago, a group of people died here, and they should be drug dealers. I can’t remember the specifics, but a few of them haven’t left yet, so don’t worry, I can handle them!”
After Xu Liang heard what I said, he nodded his head and quickly followed him to the entrance of the factory.
Actually, what I just said wasn’t exaggerated at all. It was really cold here, and it was the feeling of being cold. It didn’t take me long to feel my legs go numb from the cold.
I stomped my feet and looked ahead. It was dead silent, and I could hear the sound of my feet on the gravel and the ‘ka ka’ sound echoing all over the empty wasteland. It sounded especially sudden.
The door to the workshop was locked by a big lock, and the lock was already rusty. I tried a few times but to no avail, so I could only take the Flashlight and shine it on the inside.
Through the dim light of the Flashlight, I could faintly see a few figures moving within the factory. I was immediately scared to the point that I was covered in cold sweat.
