Chapter 43 the toilet was removed
After a while, Wu Jian came over looking pale, there were another policeman following him. Wu Jian walked up to us, "The victim is Chen Qianqian. Huang Lei, go to the police station and file a report. Xiaoyong, go with him, you are the last one that contacted the deceased.” There was a silence after he finished his word.

Huang Lei did not seem to hear what Wu Jian’s was saying, he was completely speechless. He Xiaoyong nodded, with tears streaming down his face,his arms around Huang Lei's shoulder.

The police came up and took Huang Lei and He Xiaoyong to a police car. He Xiaoru was worried about them, she wanted to go with them, but she was stopped by Wu Jian. Wu Jian said, "I will go with him, don’t worry, they will be ok. Things are getting really strange.The female ghost asked us for help finding her child, I don’t think she would actually hurt us. My guess is there must something missing, you guys just wait for me to return, don’t separate."

I nodded. Wu Jian handed me car keys,got in the police car and left.

Looking off in the direction in which Wu Jian had left,Huang Xiaolong touched his newly grown beard on his chin and went into deep thought, "Brother Wu Jian is right, Su Qing would not hurt him, sister Tan also said Su Qing would not hurt anyone."

I also agreed with him, but I didn't have much contact with these ghosts and I couldn’t judge ghosts in the way I judged living human beings.I turned to the two guys beside me and said, "Let's go back to school again, maybe we can find clues." Although I didn't count on looking for anything in the school,there was nowhere else I could go.

We walked up to the Ace middle school, and saw that security was still the same people from yesterday.They showed their vigilance when they saw us. I looked the in school and noticed some trucks.

There were a few ballast trucks waiting in a queue.The Ace middle school was in the center of the town, that was why trucks had to go one after another.I immediately had a bad feeling when I saw trucks. I walked to one of the truck,gave the driver a cigarette,"Hello, is the Ace middle school expanding? Looks like it’s going to be a big project.” This straightforward way of guiding the conversation was something I learned from Wu Jian, I was beginning to get quite good at it.

The driver waved his hand, "It’s not a big project, we’re just going to remove a bathroom. I don’t understand what the officials were thinking, we need to take all those brick away one at a time.”

I was astonished, Zhang Sheng realized what we were going to do.I casually finished talking to the driver.Then I went back to tell the story to my two companions.I sent a text message to Wu Jian about everything that was going on.

Wu Jian's replied quickly, the content was very simple,“Let’s meet up again.”

By the time Wu Jian and the others came out from the police station, it was already the mid-afternoon.We found a tea house cabin to rest.Though once inside, no one wanted to talk. It was so frustrating that Zhang Sheng had destroyed the only possible evidence, and he would probably remain unpunished.Even if we were planning to take matters into our own hands, Su Qing would interfere us from hurting Zhang Sheng. Moreover, I was sure Wu Jian would not agree with this plan.
After a long period of silence, the waiters came to refill our water. Huang Xiaolong said, "There’s no way for him to escape. I will find the evidence even if he has already removed the toilet."

Wu Jian raised his head and looked at Huang Xiaolong. He did not say anything but kept on smoking.

I thought for a minute, "Put the Zhang Sheng matters aside, let’s see if we can find any breakthroughs from sister Tan this evening.Chen Qianqian is dead anyway, Huang Lei also saw the dead rat, I am not sure how long he is going to survive."

My words suddenly woke up the others.Wu Jian shook his head quickly to cheer himself up, "right now it doesn’t matter if it is a trick done by Su Qing, It’s looking like everyone is tangled in this web of ghosts. Zhang Xue was the first one, died in an accident, Chen Qianqian is the second, it also looks like she died in an accident. As you heard, when Chen Qianqian was about to die, there was something clearly wrong with her."

Huang Xiaolong got a word in, "Well, I heard something from a policeman I was talking to. According to my experience in ghost hunting, Chen Qianqian was possessed by a ghost or was over come with hallucinations."

Wu Jian then said, "I don’t know much about the way ghosts attack humans. According to Master Huang, we can conclude that ghosts can control people and create situations that seem like an accident killed people, Master Huang, is there any suggestion to keep us safe from these things?"

Huang Xiaolong said, "brother Wu, don't call me master, I must remain humble."And he coughed,"I have an amulet, which can keep ghosts away from Huang Lei’s body, it also works for breaking an illusion. But when it came to accidents, I can’t guarantee it, though I can help."

Huang Xiaolong’s words brought hope to everybody. Wu Jian was delighted, "I suggest finding a sealed house, remove all unnecessary items that is likely to cause harm inside.We keep Huang Lei inside the house until it’s safe. I think if Huang Lei is safe, the rest of us will likely be too."

"Likely?"He Xiaoru asked.

Wu Jian said, "Yes, likely. I am not sure if the ghost will kill those who haven’ t seen the dead mouse."

He Xiaoru stopped talking.I nodded with approval, at least Huang Lei should be safe if we approach it in this way.

"I don’t think it is easy to find such a place, though."I thought for a long time, but there was no place that seemed suitable in my mind.

Wu Jian smiled, "Prison! Let’s put Huang Lei in a cell."

Huang Lei repeatedly said, "Ok, please. Let’s do it."

Huang Lei, who had always seemed to be numb, finally showed his vitality, the plan we made gave him hope.

After discussing some details, we started to get our act together.He Xiaoru, He Xiaoyong, Huang Xiao long and I moved into He Xiaoru’s house, where we would all live together for some time.Wu Jian took Huang Lei to jell. After all, it took procedures to be placed in a cell.

By the time we were acting separately, Huang Xiaolong gave Huang Lei a red sachet, which contained the amulet. Huang Xianglong did not want to open it and show what was inside. I couldn’t bring myself to ask more questions about it, I settled for staying curious and just glancing at it.

He Xiaoru’s house was very big, it contained five rooms and two halls. Her family was considered a big family in our county. In consideration for our safety,Huang Xiaolong and I stayed in the same room, Wu Jian stayed with He Xiaoyong, He Xiaoru lived in room on her own, located in between the two rooms.

Regardless,the room was not really necessary for me, mostly because I had to go to work in the ghost house at night and I only slept for a short while in the daytime.
