1240 I Want to Make You Stay 118 (1/2)
”I don't know if it's something dirty or if a corpse has mutated and revived. I didn't see anything and only met with some spooky incident inside. This matter is rather tricky to handle. Take note of new cases that emerge. If there are more victims who died in the same way as that staff member did, there must really be someone behind it.”
The two entered the office together, and Pan Zhenghui closed the door shut. ”I just feel that there's something strange about that guy who came out of the tomb with you.”
”He's a living person, and he's situation is rather special. This is information about him.” An Xiaoning passed it to him. ”Take a look.”
Pan Zhenghui read it carefully. ”This is…”
”His household register was written off 16 years ago, and he's a dead person in name. In reality, he was the sacrifice of an internal struggle,” An Xiaoning stated simply. ”Don't spread this matter, there's already a lot of people involved in it.”
”I understand.” Pan Zhenghui asked, ”So, Xiaoning, are you intending to help him?”
”I'm still considering it. It's been so many years since this matter of his took place, and it's not simple either. There's no hurry. At the present moment, I'm more concerned about the owner of that tomb. Whether the owner of that tomb is still being kept inside or has escaped, we can't be sure for now, so I have to think of a way to verify this. This is the most important priority for now.”
Pan Zhenghui was really afraid that something similar to what had happened at Beiying would happen in A City. If it was really the case, he would definitely lose his position.
”Xiaoning, should we send some men to keep an eye on the tomb at the lake?”
”We should install surveillance cameras on both exits. I've sent the archeological team away previously, so you should send some people to take turns to keep watch 24 hours a day.”
”Alright.”
”I'm taking a day of rest today. If there's nothing much, I'll enter the tomb tomorrow to see.”
”Again?” Pan Zhenghui had his hands clasped behind his back. ”Oh dear, you really shouldn't go in again. It's too dangerous.”
”I'll have someone to accompany me this time, don't worry.” An Xiaoning flashed a smile at him. ”If you can't rest assured, why don't you go in together with me to take a look yourself?”
The corner of Pan Zhenghui's lip twitched slightly. No matter how unwilling he was, it was hard for him to reject her. ”Since even you dare to go in, I'll put my life aside and go in with you to take a look, then.”
An Xiaoning did not expect him to say that. ”Really?”
”Of course.”
An Xiaoning laughed and did not say anything further. She took the information on Zong Jingyi and simply left.
On the way home, she received a call from an unknown number.
The number shown on the caller display was from B City.
An Xiaoning stepped on the brakes to stop the car and placed her earphone inside her ear before answering the call. ”Hello, who is this?”
”Hi, Ms. An. I'm the captain of B City's elite military commando unit, Liu Dasheng.”
”Oh, it's you.”
”I'm at Wei Ni Estate now, can I meet you?”
”I'm on the way back. There's a jam here, so I'll take at most 20 minutes to arrive.”
”Alright, I'll wait for you.”
