Therefore, two human flesh buns laced with sleeping potion were indispensable.
Exchanging steamed buns from Sun Erniang didn't cost many exorcism points. 10 exorcism points per bun, not expensive.
I exchanged for 5 steamed buns in one go, put some sleeping potion in each bun, and that was it.
Afterwards, he chatted casually with Sun Erniang and the other Level 2 ghosts for a while. Suddenly, the intelligent program Gao Jianfei's ear reminded him: "Dear user, the soul of the Level 2 ghost 'Drum-Swallowing Flea Shi Qian' has been pieced together and placed in Ghost Den 2-31. You can see him immediately. By containing the Level 2 ghost Shi Qian, you have gained 1000 exorcism points and 1000 experience points. Please continue your efforts and strive to advance to Level 3 exorcist as soon as possible."
At this point, Gao Jianfei's personal status became...
"The Exorcist: Gao Jianfei"
Age: 22
Level: 2
Exorcism Point: 10/14005
Experience: 14000
Experience required to upgrade to Level 3 Exorcist: 86,000
After leaving Sun Erniang's room, Gao Jianfei arrived at the door of room 2-31. The door was ajar.
Push the door open and enter.
Chapter 189 Get rid of Zeng Shiji!
Chapter 189 Get rid of Zeng Shiji!
Gao Jianfei pushed open the door to room 2-31 of the Ghost Den.
What comes into view is an interior setting, the kind of house you'd find in ancient times: wooden beams, earthen walls, red bricks, a square table, and long benches. A few wine jars are piled in the corner.
"Huh?" Gao Jianfei was startled. There was no one inside.
I looked around, up and down, but didn't see a single ghost.
Gao Jianfei stepped into the room with suspicion. Just then, he suddenly heard someone shout from above, "Hey, Xiao Gao! It's me here!"
Gao Jianfei instinctively looked up... and there was a roof beam above him. Actually, it was just a thick, round log. At that moment, he saw a leg slide off the log. And then, a wretched body "whoosh"ed down from the log! It looked like it was about to crash!
The voice that greeted Gao Jianfei belonged to that sleazy figure who was about to fall and get completely disoriented!
At this moment, Gao Jianfei saw that face was covered with a frivolous and cunning smile, as if he didn't care about the fact that he was about to fall flat on his face!
"Watch out!" Gao Jianfei shouted instinctively, warning the guy not to go too far.
Suddenly, just as the man's body was falling off the log, his right foot got caught on it!
The person was hanging upside down, head down and feet up, like a pendulum. Moreover, one leg was hanging from a log, swaying back and forth like a pendulum.
"Hey, Xiao Gao, don't rush, don't rush." He himself was quite relaxed and confident.
Gao Jianfei looked at his face; it was thin, with a pointed chin and a mustache—truly repulsive!
To put it bluntly, if you only look at that face, it really does look like a thief's face!
"Shi Qian?" Gao Jianfei blurted out.
"It's me!" the thief shouted, then his right foot slipped and he fell straight down. He did a somersault in the air and landed firmly on the ground.
Very stable, really stable.
"Huh? Impressive!" Gao Jianfei couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. Although the man looked rather sleazy, he truly possessed real skills!
"Hehe, thanks for bringing me here, Xiao Gao!" Shi Qian, who was only 1.6 meters tall, stood on tiptoe and put his arm around Gao Jianfei's shoulder. "Come on! I'll treat you to a drink!"
Gao Jianfei quickly said, "Let's skip it today. I have things to do. We can drink another day!"
I still have to go to Zeng Shiji's house to steal something tonight. I need to hurry up and learn Shi Qian's "burglary and stealing" skills first!
So Gao Jianfei shouted to the intelligent program, "Alright, I'm going to learn Shi Qian's skills right now!"
"As you wish, esteemed user! Super Ghost Instrument, learning space activated!" With a shout from the intelligent program, the environment in which Gao Jianfei and Shi Qian were located changed drastically.
The human and the ghost arrived outdoors.
It was a flat area with some blueprints and house models on a large table. Directly in front of the flat area were several houses of different styles.
Shi Qian immediately took on the role of instructing Gao Jianfei.
"Come on, Xiao Gao, come and take a look at this with me first." Shi Qian affectionately put his arm around Gao Jianfei's shoulder and led him to the large table.
Learning! Gao Jianfei began to humbly learn Shi Qian's skills.
First of all, Shi Qian is a thief, a self-taught thief.
His thieving skills, burglary techniques, and wall-climbing skills were all acquired through hard work since childhood.
He taught Gao Jianfei using a method he had figured out himself.
Through his studies, Gao Jianfei realized something... He had always assumed from television and novels that Shi Qian was skilled in light-body techniques, capable of leaping several meters into the air with a single tap of his foot, or jumping several meters in one bound. In fact, this was incorrect.
Shi Qian had never studied martial arts, so where did he get his lightness skill from?
His ability to scale walls and leap across rooftops is essentially about climbing, maintaining balance, landing with somersaults after jumping from heights, and using climbing techniques...
It's not as mysterious as it's made out to be; these are all things he's learned through a lifetime of hard work and experience.
Of course, Shi Qian is talented in these areas. Therefore, although his skills cannot compare to the so-called light-footed skills in TV shows and novels, they are still unimaginable for ordinary people.
For example, he can scale walls several meters high in a matter of seconds; he can jump from a height of 5 meters without getting injured; he can walk quickly on a piece of iron without losing his balance...
With these technologies, breaking into a house is a piece of cake!
However, before learning these skills, Shi Qian first taught Gao Jianfei some other things. Before entering a room, one must first observe the exterior of the building to roughly deduce its internal structure, and then choose where to enter.
This already touches on modern architecture.
The house model and blueprints on the table are for training purposes.
With Shi Qian's patient instruction, it took 3 hours for Gao Jianfei to finally learn all of Shi Qian's skills!
Of course, judging from Shi Qian's skill description, there is also a provincial-level hearing ability... For a thief, it is very important to be able to see in all directions and hear in all directions!
However, Gao Jianfei's hearing ability is already at the provincial level, so he doesn't need to learn Shi Qian's hearing specialty.
Before leaving Shi Qian's room, Gao Jianfei did a simulation. He stood at the corner of a building, suddenly grabbed the gap in the wall with both hands, pushed off with his feet, and climbed up the wall like a gecko! Gao Jianfei's agility was extremely impressive. He quickly climbed the high wall, which was connected to another wall on the opposite side by a steel beam, more than ten meters above the ground. Gao Jianfei was not afraid. He stepped onto the steel beam and ran quickly for more than ten meters until he reached the opposite wall. Then he did a somersault in the air and landed on the roof ridge below. He rolled on the spot and rolled through a skylight in the roof tiles into a room.
All the actions were completed within a short 2 minutes, which is several times better than the skills of some special forces soldiers in modern society!
Gao Jianfei casually opened the door of that room and walked out, thanked Shi Qian, and then left Shi Qian's room.
I checked my phone; it was already 11 p.m., time to take action.
With five steamed buns laced with sleeping potion in his arms, Gao Jianfei left the den of iniquity.
Before leaving the haunted house, Li Du's ghost was very excited and eager to accompany Gao Jianfei to steal Zeng Shiji's account book. Gao Jianfei laughed and said, "I will naturally need your help later. Don't be in a hurry. When we get to the gate of the Zeng family villa, I will let you appear."
After leaving the den of iniquity, Gao Jianfei changed into some lighter clothes, told his family a casual lie, and left home.
When leaving the community, Gao Jianfei was seized by a playful impulse. Instead of going out through the main gate, he took advantage of the community's patrolling security guards not paying attention and climbed over the wall to get out!
The wall was several meters high, but Gao Jianfei simply rubbed his hands and pushed off with his feet, and in the blink of an eye, he had scaled it.
Even if someone did see him, it would probably be a fleeting moment before they could no longer catch a glimpse of Gao Jianfei.
After leaving the residential area, Gao Jianfei walked quickly for a while with his head down, then hailed a taxi and headed straight for Zeng Shiji's old hideout, the Urban Jungle residential area.
Those monks who were blocking Gao Jianfei's way at the main entrance of Nanhu Community were pitiful. They were watching the people coming in and out of the community, but little did they know that Gao Jianfei had already climbed over the wall and escaped... He really didn't take the usual route!
Upon arriving at the Urban Jungle residential complex, Gao Jianfei calmly entered. The security in this complex was clearly much lax compared to the Nanhu community; anyone, any vehicle, could enter the Urban Jungle complex.
Upon entering the residential area, Gao Jianfei immediately made Li Du's ghost appear in person.
A pale green phosphorescent flame twisted and contorted in the air before transforming into the outline of Li Du in his previous life. It drifted beside Gao Jianfei, pointing and gesturing along the way... "Xiao Gao, this way, follow me! This is how you get to Zeng the Beast's villa."
It was quite adept at it.
As they walked, Li Du's ghost said to Gao Jianfei, "Xiao Gao, when I came to steal the ledger before, I already investigated. Zeng Shiji sometimes doesn't even come home. He's secretly keeping a few mistresses on the side!"
"Huh?" Gao Jianfei choked. "Keeping a mistress? Well, if it were reported that a cadre like Zeng Shiji was keeping several mistresses, he'd probably be in deep trouble, right?"
"Yes, yes!" Li Du hurriedly replied, "So, I've already secretly taken photos of Zeng Shiji and his mistress entering and leaving some places. Originally, I planned to hand over the account books, along with those photos, to the Discipline Inspection Commission. Alas, at the last moment, all my efforts were in vain!"
Gao Jianfei became increasingly curious. "By the way, who told you to collect all of Zeng Shiji's criminal and criminal information? You're incredibly audacious!"
Li Du's ghost chuckled. "It's like this, Xiao Gao. Being a private detective was my childhood dream. And in the entire ZG city, there's only one private detective agency, and I'm the only detective in this agency. Pretty cool, right?"
At this point, it even seemed somewhat proud.
After a pause, it continued, "I've been doing things like investigating mistresses and adulterers. Finally, a big case came my way… investigating Zeng Shiji, the director of the ZG City Public Security Bureau and secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission! This is a milestone for my career! If I pull this off, my private detective agency will become incredibly successful! I'm a very career-driven person, so I accepted the case without hesitation. Besides, there's a 40% reward after it's done. Xiao Gao, let me tell you, this case was given to me by the deputy director of the ZG City Public Security Bureau. But, after my incident, that deputy director was probably also taken care of by Zeng Shiji."
The human and the ghost talked to each other as they walked around a flowerbed and arrived at two villas. They were about ten meters away from the villas.
This urban jungle community has apartment buildings with elevators, multi-story buildings, and villas. Of course, being able to build a villa in the community is a very impressive thing.
Both villas were quite large, with separate parking lots, gardens, swimming pools, and more.
"Xiao Gao, those two villas, the one on the left belongs to Zeng Shiji, and the one on the right belongs to his son Zeng Jian. Zeng Shiji keeps two purebred Tibetan mastiffs in his villa, so be careful," Li Du's ghost warned.
Gao Jianfei nodded. Looking around, he saw that the two villas were completely dark, with no lights on. It was not yet midnight; the Zeng father and son shouldn't be asleep that early. Could it be that neither of them were home?
Hello!
Gao Jianfei took the five steamed buns out of his pocket and said to Li Du's ghost, "Let's go over there!"
Immediately, Gao Jianfei headed straight for Zeng Shiji's villa. The villa was surrounded by a 3-meter-high wall, and before Gao Jianfei even reached it, he heard muffled howls of wild beasts erupting from within!
"Waaah...waaah..."
It was a deep, savage sound, as if warning other creatures not to trespass on their territory.
"It's a Tibetan mastiff!" Li Du exclaimed in horror. "Last time, I brought more than ten kilograms of beef to deal with those two Tibetan mastiffs. However, after I entered Zeng Shiji's villa, those two beasts kept barking, which led to that bastard Zeng Jian discovering me."
Gao Jianfei quickly and forcefully threw the five steamed buns directly over the wall. Of course, Gao Jianfei was adept at listening to the wind and knew exactly where the two Tibetan mastiffs were inside the wall. This throw landed exactly where they could open their mouths and eat.
"Woo!" "Woo!"
Two low, excited hums rang out. Gao Jianfei stepped back a few meters and waited.
After waiting for a few minutes, Gao Jianfei walked back towards the wall. This time, when he reached the base of the wall, the Tibetan mastiffs inside did not make a sound.
Clearly, they were all under the influence of the sleeping potion at this moment!
Gao Jianfei grabbed the wall with both hands and jumped over it with his feet.
Two magnificent Tibetan mastiffs were lying on the ground, snoring.
