Chapter 884: Ghost! There is a ghost!
Chapter 884: Ghost! There is a ghost!
Hei Er brought his men and took Tao Dahu and Tiezi to the backyard of Wanhua Tower and entered another secluded courtyard by the lake.
This small courtyard was the one that Ouyang Yunyao and Xia Yan observed when they were standing on the roof of the second floor.
There were several red lights swaying in the night wind in the courtyard, and the gate of the courtyard was ajar.
Hei Er and his group walked straight through the courtyard and came to the door of a candle-lit room in the main building.
There were two guards guarding the door. Hei Er walked up and bowed respectfully to the two guards guarding the door and said, "I am Hei Er, and I am here to see the master."
As soon as he finished speaking, before the guards could pass on the message, a cold male voice came from the room: "Let them in."
The door was slowly opened halfway with a creaky sound, and Hei Er walked in with Tao Dahu and Tiezi. The other two people who were escorting them were waiting at the door.
The guard at the door quickly closed it.
The furnishings in the room were simple. In front of a large desk sat a man in black with a gloomy face. He looked to be about 45 or 46 years old, with eyes as sharp as knives, and an aura of majesty without even getting angry.
There was only a steaming teacup, a plate of exquisite pastries and a quaint teapot on the desk.
There was a guard standing on the man's right, and there was another man standing opposite the desk, who seemed to be reporting something to him.
The three of them entered the room and first called out to the man standing in front of the desk, "Boss Yang!" Then they saluted to the man in black sitting on the armchair behind the desk, cupping their fists:
"Hei Er greets the master! I have brought these two people here."
Tao Dahu and Tiezi also hurriedly saluted, "The humble Tao Dahu greets the master." "The humble Zhao Tie greets the master."
The man in black didn't even raise his eyelids, but said coldly: "I asked you to bring the woman here, why did you bring them here?" His cold voice made the three of them tremble all over.
Tao Dahu's heart tightened, but he couldn't hide it, so he said, "Master! Boss Yang! That...that woman..." He paused, "She's gone."
After hearing what Tao Dahu said, the scene suddenly became eerily quiet, and fell into dead silence without a single sound.
But in just a breath, the man who had just stood in front of the table had already stood sideways to the table. He looked at Tao Dahu in disbelief for a while, then flashed and rushed in front of Tao Dahu.
He slapped Tao Dahu hard and roared, "You... Tao Dahu, what did you say? You fucking said that woman is missing?"
The man in black sitting behind the desk remained calm and scanned the three people who lowered their heads with a cold gaze.
Zhao Tie, the man called Tiezi, said tremblingly, "Master, Boss Yang, the woman is missing. We clearly tied her to the bed, but how could she disappear?"
The man called Boss Yang glared at Zhao Tie and said viciously, "Did you see a ghost? Ha, you dare to fool the master, you must be tired of living!"
After hearing this, the man in black remained expressionless, without even frowning. He just leaned back in the armchair, seemingly lost in thought.
Tao Dahu didn't care about his bleeding mouth from the palm hit by Boss Yang. He still raised his head and looked at the man in black sitting on the middle armchair and said:
"Master, even if I have the courage of the sky, I dare not fool you. It is just as Tiezi said, the woman disappeared in the room, and there is no trace of her in the room."
He thought for a moment and said, "Master, I think there is something wrong with that room. There is something wrong with the room."
After hearing this, the man in black still didn't say anything, and didn't even frown. He closed his eyes and leaned back in the armchair, seeming to be thinking about something.
After hearing what he said, Lord Yang became even more angry. The person had already run away, but he was still quibbling. This Tao Dahu was becoming more and more useless.
He stared at Tao Dahu, "Tao Dahu, you didn't take good care of me, and you're still trying to argue.
How could there be something wrong with the room in our Wanhua Tower? How come I didn't know about it? Stop playing tricks here."
"Boss Yang, what I said is true. If you don't believe me, ask Hei Er."
Boss Yang thought for a moment and looked at Hei Er, "Hei Er, you go ahead and speak."
Hei Er looked at his master who had his eyes closed, and his legs trembled a little. Then he told Boss Yang everything that had happened tonight in detail, not daring to exaggerate.
At this moment, the man in black suddenly opened his eyes. He stared at Hei Er with a dark and cold gaze and asked in a cold voice, "You mean, when you broke into the door, the two of them were lying unconscious on the ground?"
"Yes, sir. The door was bolted from the inside. I had it forced open and found the two of them lying, one in the inner room and the other at the door of the inner room.
After I woke them up, they didn't even know that the woman was gone." Hei Er looked at his master, his eyes full of fear.
The guard standing next to the man in black suddenly spoke up and tentatively guessed, "Master, could it be that someone blew drugs in through the window and knocked them out?"
"Impossible, the window is nailed shut." Hei Er explained.
The black-clothed man's face suddenly darkened, and he swept his sharp eyes over the people in front of him. He then stared coldly at Tao Dahu and Zhao Tie, and a devilish voice came out of his throat:
"Where did you two hide the person?"
The man in black, who was their master, obviously did not believe their words, but believed that this was a trap set up deliberately by Tao Dahu and Zhao Tie, and that someone among them rescued the woman.
His question stunned everyone present and they looked at each other in bewilderment.
Tao Dahu and Zhao Tie were terrified and fell to their knees. Tao Dahu bravely said, "Master, I would never dare to do such a thing! If I had saved this woman, why would I have gone to the trouble of catching her..."
The man in black glanced at him coldly without waiting for him to finish, then waved his hand and said, "It wasn't you who hid it, but you didn't keep an eye on it. Drag him away and interrogate him carefully." This completely ruined his plan.
Then he said to Boss Yang: "Yang Chong, seal off Wanhua Tower and don't let anyone out."
Hei Er lowered his head and was secretly happy. Humph, Tao Dahu is going to be in big trouble now. He usually looks down on me. He originally thought that Tao Dahu had hidden the person, but it turned out that he was really missing.
"Yes, Master." Yang Chong responded. Then he turned to Hei Er and said, "Take them away..."
Before he could finish his words, a terrified scream from outside suddenly interrupted him: "Oh no! Oh no! Boss Yang, Boss Yang, it's a ghost! There is a ghost!" Immediately afterwards, a man rushed in in panic.
When he saw Boss Yang and Hei Er, he knelt on the ground with a thump and said in a trembling voice: "Hei Er, that woman was knocking on the door just now and was still shouting from inside the room!"
