Chapter 944 Making up for one’s faults

Assistant Zhao was a little nervous when he heard his boss ask this, so he nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Deng, everything has been done, the family members shouldn't be able to find any faults..." Then he couldn't help but complain, "Besides, Sun Yaqing doesn't behave abnormally at ordinary times, and the company won't lay off her at all. Why do you think she joined in the fun? Why would she jump off the building?!"

Because Gu Hao had already asked Deng Kai and Deng Yaohui to explain the reason for the jump, Deng Yaohui didn't want to delve into it further, so he said perfunctorily, "People in today's society are under a lot of pressure... There are many people who look normal on the surface, but their mental problems have reached a very serious level. Besides, the person is no longer alive, so don't say such things anymore. We must reflect on this lesson and pay more attention to the mental health of our employees in the future."

Assistant Zhao quickly responded, "The chairman is still a big shot...Okay, I'll pass it on."

Song Jiang couldn't sleep well these past few nights as he was always worried about Alice. Gu Hao tried many methods but could not find any trace of her...Meng Zhe said that he didn't have any better way, after all, once that kind of evil ghost escaped, it would be difficult to find it again.

Although they knew that the reason why the employee jumped off the building that day was because Alice was making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, they still could not do anything. Song Jiang was very upset about this. He felt that if they had not driven the dog into the alley, innocent people would not have lost their lives...

Gu Hao has always been a person who fears karma. Although he has resolved the karma between him and the old ghost, it has also created new karma. So he has not had a good time these past few days. He has always lived in anxiety and was in a state of panic all day long. Finally, Deng Kai couldn't stand it anymore and said, "It has already happened. It's useless for you to regret or worry. If you really can't get over this hurdle in your heart, then I will go with you to catch ghosts. No matter if it's Alice or not, as long as we meet an evil ghost, we will find a way to deal with it. In this way, the merits accumulated will definitely be able to offset the karma of letting Alice go, right?"

When Gu Hao heard that Deng Kai, such a coward, was actually going to accompany him to catch ghosts, he smiled helplessly and said, "It's not as simple as you think."

"It may not be as complicated as you think... Who cares whether he can make up for his mistakes? Anyway, catching evil ghosts is a good thing to eliminate harm for the people. As long as I have a clear conscience in my heart, it will be enough!" Deng Kai said very confidently.

Deng Kai not only accompanied Gu Hao, but also brought Song Jiang along. He was also upset about Alice's matter, and immediately agreed with Deng Kai's idea after hearing it. Meng Zhe was not impressed by it, but he did not object, because he could just divert Song Jiang's attention away from him, giving him the opportunity to do other important things alone.

In the following period of time, Song Jiang, Gu Hao and Deng Kai rushed around. Once they found a place where evil spirits existed, they helped Gu Hao to exorcise the ghosts. They would exorcise those who could be exorcised, and directly "purify" those who could not be exorcised. They were very busy for a while...

Meng Zhe came home very late that night. As soon as he entered the house, he heard the sound of water in the bathroom, so he leaned against the door, knocked on the glass door and said, "Hey, I'm back..."

Song Jiang said vaguely "Hmm...", and then there was no movement.

Meng Zhe originally wanted to wait for Song Jiang to come out and ask them if there had been any progress during this period, but when he thought that Song Jiang had been very busy and tired these days, he did not ask any more questions. He just said, "You should go to bed early" and turned back to his room.

At the same time, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped abruptly. Song Jiang, dressed neatly, looked at himself in the mirror with an unusually strange look in his eyes, as if he was looking at someone else's face. He even raised his hand and gently touched his face, pressed it, and finally showed a weird smile... The next morning, Deng Kai and Gu Hao drove to Meng Zhe's community as usual to pick up Song Jiang. As a result, as soon as the car drove outside the community, they saw Song Jiang wandering on the side of the road alone, so Deng Kai stopped the car, lowered the window and said, "Why are you wandering on the street by yourself instead of waiting at home so early in the morning?"

Song Jiang looked up at Deng Kai, as if he didn't know how to answer. He hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "I'll come out for breakfast..."

Deng Kai laughed when he heard it, "You're eating out by yourself? That's rare. Meng Zhe didn't even come with you...Okay, hurry up and get in the car."

Gu Hao was sitting in the back to catch up on some sleep because he had been drawing talismans until late last night. He opened his eyes slightly when he heard the noise and saw Deng Kai and Song Jiang talking. He didn't pay much attention and closed his eyes to continue sleeping. Deng Kai was talking to himself and didn't notice anything unusual about Song Jiang at all...

When Meng Zhe got up in the morning, he found that Song Jiang had already gone out. Although he was a little surprised that Song Jiang rarely communicated with him, he didn't think much about it. Coincidentally, Lao Xu called at this time, so he picked up the phone, said a few words, and hurried out.

The reason why Gu Hao had to draw the talisman overnight was because they were going to an abandoned hospital this time. The reason for the abandonment was a fire many years ago. It was said that many people were burned to death at that time. Later, the hospital wanted to renovate it on the original site, but strange things happened one after another not long after the construction started. In the end, they had to choose a new site for the construction and completely abandoned this place...

Logically speaking, such a weird place should have been visited by adventure bloggers long ago according to the current standards of internet celebrity check-in spots, but the strange thing is that I have never heard of anyone going there on the Internet. It seems that everyone has tacitly avoided that place... and dared not touch it easily.

The reason why Gu Hao and his friends chose to go to this place was because a host named Dongzi, who was signed by Deng Kai before, once mentioned this place in private. At that time, he did want to go there, but there was no movement afterwards. The other party seemed to have forgotten about this matter, and he just kept shooting some travel videos afterwards.

But later, some careful netizens discovered that all the videos Dongzi posted in the past year were actually edited from old videos uploaded before. He used to like interacting with netizens very much, so he would often reply to netizens' messages. But since he started uploading those edited old videos, he has never replied to netizens' messages again.

Many netizens left insulting comments under Dongzi's video, saying that he deceived his fans. He clearly did not shoot any new footage, but instead pieced together some edited old videos to make up the numbers. Later, the video publishing platform discovered this problem and has been trying to contact Dongzi himself, but has been unable to get in touch with him.
