I'm catching tricks in the Hong Kong variety show world

This civet cat is extremely intelligent and seems to be able to understand human speech. It has given Zi Ning several surprises. Although it looks old, its movements are very flexible, which has greatly increased Zi Ning's interest in the civet cat.

Part of it was curiosity, and the other part was that the civet cat was very sensible. No girl would dislike such a pet cat.

With Su Hao by her side, Zi Ning felt at ease even in Kunchiyan, one of the ten most dangerous places.

While she was on an intense adventure, having such a pet cat by her side made her feel more at ease.

The reason why Su Hao suggested this was because he was worried that Zi Ning would get into an accident if he stayed outside alone or would get bored during the trip. The main force of the expedition would definitely be him and Johnston. Zi Ning would complete the task if he went over to shoot some materials.

The civet cat hesitated for a while, then hesitantly jumped off the sofa, and finally jumped along Zi Ning's arm to her shoulder, and consciously grabbed Zi Ning's clothes with its cat paws.

Su Hao turned around and locked the door before setting off.

On the way to the detective agency in Johnston, Su Hao went to a mall that sold outdoor adventure props and bought all the things he had planned earlier. He also brought a medical kit along the way.

The total weight of these props is close to [-] kilograms. Thanks to Su Hao's physical strength after practicing Tan Leg, it would be difficult for an ordinary otaku with kidney deficiency to carry it for dozens of meters.

Just when Su Hao was about to arrive at the detective agency, Johnston called.

"Ah Hao, how long do you have until you arrive? There seem to be two groups of clients this time, and there are conflicts between them. They are quarreling at my place."

"By the way, there is also a man and a woman who are said to be the cameraman and host of the Spirit Detection Studio. Is this the person you called as well?"

"Two groups of clients? And a man and a woman from the spirit detection studio?"

Su Hao glanced at Zi Ning doubtfully and directly handed the phone to Zi Ning.

The latter glanced at Su Hao guiltily and explained to Johnston on the phone: "My client's surname is Cai. She is a middle-aged woman. It was she who commissioned us to go to Kunchiyan Mental Hospital to find her missing son. Another person. I don’t know about Bo’s client.”

Johnston said: "It is true that one of them was named Cai, but I listened for a while when they were arguing in the living room. Another middle-aged couple seemed to have a daughter who was in college and disappeared in Kunchiyan. By the way, it seemed The son of the woman surnamed Cai invited the middle-aged couple’s daughter to go on an adventure together at Kunchi Rock, and then they both disappeared.”

"One more thing, listening to the content of their quarrel, it seems that there were four young people who disappeared together. They were all college students and knew each other. They were two men and two women. They had previously reported the police to the Saigon branch, but they were not found. "

Zi Ning said: "Brother Zhuang, you don't need to worry about them. My client is Ms. Cai. We will be there in a moment. If they quarrel, let them quarrel. The other man and woman are colleagues from my previous workplace. They also Will accompany us to go to Konjiam for on-site shooting.”

Johnston frowned on the phone and said, "Does Hao know?"

Zi Ning glanced at Su Hao in the driver's seat with guilt again, and whispered: "Ah Hao knows."

"Ahao didn't say anything?"

"He said it was okay as long as he was here."

Johnston said: "Then come quickly."

After ending the call, Zi Ning returned the phone to Su Hao with a guilty conscience. Without waiting for the latter to question, he took the initiative to explain: "When you met me, I was filming a pseudo-documentary about supernatural beings for the TV station in the Spirit Detection Studio. The two of them were together. It's the host Nana, and the other one is the photographer Ah Hai. I met you when you went to my former unit. After I resigned, Dahai also wanted to come, but our studio didn't have a shortage of manpower for the time being, so he refused. Now the above The editor-in-chief asked Nana and Ahai to work together, as they are in short supply of good supernatural materials recently."

Su Hao said calmly: "So?"

"So I revealed the news about our plan to go to Kunchiyan to Ah Hai. Ah Hai reported to the editor-in-chief of the unit. The editor-in-chief approved the operation and asked them to follow us. He also approved their activity fund of 1 Hong Kong dollars. Ah Hai gave me 5000, and the two of them happened to be with me. I think if there are more people, I can help you share the burden. After all, this is Kunchi Rock, and the rumors about that place are very evil."

Zi Ning's explanation voice became smaller and smaller.

Su Hao used his free hand to hit Zi Ning's forehead hard, "Does this 5000 Hong Kong dollars count as the studio's income or your personal income?"

Seeing that Su Hao wasn't angry, Zi Ning looked much more relaxed and explained: "Of course the studio will make money. We invested so much money this time and haven't opened yet. I'm thinking about how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, but you don't care. , I can only find a way myself."

The unhappiness in Su Hao's heart quickly disappeared.

Zi Ning smuggled the information to A Hai and others in the Soul Detection Studio without telling him, and became a shameful second-hand dealer, which invisibly affected Su Hao's plan and rhythm. Since he brought these people with him, he must ensure that they safety.

One more person will distract Su Hao's energy even more.

Having said that, the Spooky Detective Agency established by the two this time was not the temporary partnership studio that previously contributed to the interesting newspaper. Zi Ning invested all his savings in one go, which was over [-], so he was naturally a little anxious.

For the first time they started a business, Su Hao paid 5 yuan privately. For the second time, Su Hao took 2 yuan alone. Counted into the daily expenses of the detective agency, this amount of money is only a drop in the bucket of Su Hao's total property. He has food in hand and is not worried.

Zi Ning's mentality is naturally not as good as his.

"You can take them with you, but everything must be under my command and you cannot act privately. Also, you should try to come out before dark, and you must not stay in there overnight."

Now that there were two more people, Su Hao drove the car back and bought some more tools, including two camping tents.

After these trivial matters, it was already 10:[-] in the morning when Su Hao arrived at the detective agency.

Johnston's front desk assistant Zhao Feifei breathed a long sigh of relief when she saw the two people appearing. She glanced at Zi Ning and walked forward thoughtfully and said, "Brother Su, there are two groups of clients coming this time." There was a very fierce quarrel. The quarrel had lasted for more than an hour and it had just subsided. Mr. Zhuang couldn't bear it."

Su Hao showed a hint of apology to her, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay. The client is resting in the living room, and Mr. Zhuang is in the office."

The appearance of Su Hao and Zi Ning immediately attracted the attention of several people. Su Hao glanced towards the living room and found A Hai sitting with a young and fashionable female host. Both of them looked familiar.

Ah Hai stood up nervously and said hello: "Su...Brother Su, we are Zi Ning's friends."

In fact, Ah Hai is several years older than Su Hao. Unfortunately, the other party knows Su Hao's identity. Not only is he richer than him, but he also has a legitimate and stable police career. Now he and Zi Ning are starting a business together, and he is asking Su Hao for this operation. , naturally he couldn't be stubborn in front of Su Hao.

"Hello, Brother Su, I'm Nana."

The female host extended her hand to Su Hao generously to say hello.

There were three people sitting on the sofa opposite them, and they were divided into two groups, sitting on the two sofas next to the coffee table. On one side was a middle-aged woman with white silk hair, and on the other side was a pair of people sitting across from each other. Serious middle-aged couple.

Seeing Zi Ning's appearance, the white-haired woman greeted her expectantly, "An Ning, you're finally here. My sister has something to discuss with you in private later."

Zi Ning glanced at Su Hao and went to greet them first.

Su Hao went directly to Johnston's office and found a tall middle-aged man packing his luggage with his head down. Johnston immediately complained: "Why are you here?"

"Sorry, I purchased some props on the way, which delayed my time."

Johnston pointed to the middle-aged man in the room and introduced: "This is Xiao Wu. He is a retired scout and a field staff member of our detective agency. He is also coming with us this time."

"Hello, I'm Xiaowu, please give me your advice."

Xiao Wu took the initiative to reach out and shake Su Hao's hand.

The palms of the two people separated as soon as they touched each other. Su Hao sensitively found some calluses in the thick and strong palms of the other party, and couldn't help but take a closer look at the other party's appearance.

Xiao Wu is about 1 meters tall, not too tall, but very stocky. He wears a gray T-shirt, has short hair, and has dark skin. He looks a little arrogant.

Johnston politely ordered Xiao Wu: "Xiao Wu, you go out and prepare first. We will set off in a moment and let Feifei prepare the entrustment contract."

Su Hao used Johnston's territory to negotiate business, so Johnston naturally had to do a good job in logistics.

After the door was closed, Johnston threw a cigarette to Su Hao, shook his chin in a showy manner and said, "How is it? How is my field worker?"

Su Hao nodded in approval and said: "As expected of a retired scout, he should have a few brushes. Is he going to Kunchi Rock with us this time?"

Johnston said: "The salary paid to Xiao Wu by our detective agency is a basic salary of 3 yuan per month, plus business commissions, including five insurances and one housing fund. Generally, he works five days and takes two days off when there is no work. Otherwise, we won't be able to keep him. You Even though he is in his 30s, he can usually fight several strong young men, and he has a strong sense of anti-reconnaissance. He is good at rock climbing and wilderness survival. We usually leave some of the work that requires candid photography to him in our detective agency."

"I checked the information about Kunchiyan on the Internet. This is not a simple place. Bringing Xiao Wu with me will make me feel more at ease."

Su Hao asked thoughtfully: "What? Do you have inside information?"

Johnston took out a document from the drawer and handed it to Su Hao, "Read it yourself."

Su Hao glanced at the document in his hand. It actually contained the population information of people who had disappeared in Kunchi Rock in the past 20 years. After a cursory glance, there were at least ten people.

Su Hao turned to the end and saw the photos of four young college students. The photos were the kind of ID photos that are registered on student ID cards. The four of them were very young, the man was handsome and the woman was pretty.

"Cai Xiaohu?"

Su Hao stared at one of the young boys and read out his name.

Johnston explained: "This is your client's son. He is a single-parent family. The son takes his mother's surname. It seems that he changed his surname after divorce."

"I asked people in the Saigon branch for information. Kunchi Rock is not just a dangerous place, there is something really inside."

When Johnston said this, his face became extremely serious.

Su Hao heard something in Johnston's words and asked: "I don't think you are so well-informed. It is indeed right to invite you. Just say what you want to say without beating around the bush."

Johnston stood cautiously in front of Su Hao, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder and said: "I actually want to say that the contract between you and the client has not been signed, right? We actually don't need to make this trip. I know you and Zi Ning also I have set up a spy studio, but there is a lack of business when it just opened, and I cannot take in all the business. I personally judge that this operation is quite dangerous."

Su Hao nodded and said, "I'm still going to go."

Johnston sighed and said: "I knew it would be like this. Since you insist on going, I will accompany you. I believe you will not do anything you are not sure of, and I also believe in your ability."

"By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you in advance."

With a mysterious look on his face, Johnston led Su Hao to a nearby lounge and opened the suite in the lounge. There was a black spiritual tablet standing on the bedside table, with two sticks of incense burning next to it.

Johnston pointed to the spiritual tablet and said, "I'm going to bring it with me this time."

"Amu?"

Johnston nodded.

After discussing with Johnston, Su Hao returned to the living room and found that the two groups of clients in the living room were arguing again.

Zi Ning waved to Su Hao, took him aside and explained in a low voice: "The client I contacted earlier was Ms. Cai, and the person she was arguing with was the parent of another missing college girl. It is said that Ms. Cai's son will be The girl made an appointment to go on an expedition to Kunji Rock, and the situation of another pair of missing college students was similar. Four of them were missing together this time, two boys and two girls."

"Where are the parents of the other two missing college students?"

Zi Ning said quietly: "I heard from Ms. Cai that they reported it to the police together. The Saigon police also sent people to search Kunchi Rock. However, the search process did not last long. They only found some items they abandoned inside. Among them was a camera belonging to Cai Xiaohu, which seemed to have recorded some unexpected situations they encountered during their expedition."

Su Hao's expression changed, "Where's the camera?"

"It's in Ms. Cai's hands."

The two of them were talking and looking towards the hall, when Su Hao's eyes met Ms. Cai's. He saw an inexplicable sadness in her eyes, as well as a hint of tenacity and unwillingness.

Ms. Cai saw the two people discussing on the side and slowly followed them without permission. She saw that Su Hao was the leader this time and was also Zi Ning's partner. At that moment, her legs felt weak and she was about to kneel down. Su Hao's quick eyesight and quick hands made him kneel down. Hold the other person's arm and hold her in place.

Ms. Cai said guiltily: "Mr. Su, I'm sorry for causing you trouble this time. My son is not dead. He is in Kunchi Rock. I can feel it. I have dreamed about him every night these days. I I dreamed that he asked me for help in my dream. I am just a son and I will count on him to support me in my old age. You must help me save him."

Su Hao said: "Actually, you should call the police."

Ms. Cai explained: "People from the Saigon Crime Unit went there but couldn't find the person. They dealt with it directly as a missing person case. They also advised me to be less grieving and submit, saying that the person should be dead. Now that I can't see anyone alive or dead, how can I be less grieving?" ?”

Su Hao comforted him: "Since we agreed to accept the commission, we will do our best to help you find someone. Do you have a camera belonging to Cai Xiaohu?"

Ms. Cai took out the gray-brown camera from her backpack and did not hand it to Su Hao immediately. There was a hint of struggle in her expression.

Su Hao saw that she should have something to say, "Ms. Cai can speak directly if she has something to say."

"I actually have two merciless requests. I can only give you a commission of 10 Hong Kong dollars. I entrust you to help me go to Kunchiyan to find traces of my son. By the way, I ask you to help find the other three missing people. They are all my son’s classmates.”

"The second unkind request is, can you take me with you when you go to Kunchiyan this time? If my son's whereabouts are not found in the end, I won't worry until I die if I don't go in and try with my own eyes."

Ms. Cai said with a hint of choke in her voice.

It was obvious that she must have been suffering during this time.

Ms. Cai looks about 35 years old, and the tips of her hair are already turning gray. Standing next to Su Hao and Zi Ning, they are equivalent to two generations.

Ms. Cai had two unrequited requests, including a 10 commission fee. She originally asked them to help find her missing son Cai Xiaohu in Kunchiyan, but now the number of targets she wants to find has been expanded to four people.

There is no increase in the price.

The second unkind request is to take her with you.

In fact, the first merciless invitation didn't matter to Su Hao. He was looking for one person or four people. Su Hao only needed to bring back the whereabouts of the other party, which was not difficult.

As for why the police in Saigon did not find anyone or the body?

Su Hao estimated that the other party had not completely searched for Kunchi Rock.

There must be more than this wave of people missing in Kunchi Rock in the past few years. The Saigon Branch does not have a miscellaneous affairs department. As local police, they must be aware of some special circumstances in Kunchi Rock.

Besides, with a monthly salary of [-] yuan, who is willing to work hard?

Especially in the face of such a strange and dangerous case.

But the second unkind invitation put Su Hao in a bit of a dilemma.

The key is not to bring one more person, but whether this person will obey the command when the time comes. If he is eager to find his son after entering, and acts blindly, it will not only ruin Su Hao's plan, but also bring unnecessary trouble to others. risks of.

Su Hao has the responsibility to protect the safety of everyone on this trip.

Su Hao originally planned to refuse, but as soon as he touched Ms. Cai's eyes, his heart immediately softened.

"Okay, I can take you with me, but you must obey the command at that time. If you don't obey the command, we will terminate the operation at any time. In addition, this commissioned mission must sign a written agreement now. You can wait until we find your son's whereabouts before choosing to pay. .”

"Thank you, thank you."

Ms. Cai held Su Hao's hand and burst into tears of gratitude.

Chapter 219 The owl appears during the day

Several people finally reached an agreement at Johnston's detective agency. Su Hao and Ms. Cai signed a tracing contract, with a commission fee of [-] Hong Kong dollars, to be paid afterwards.

This is the first business the Detective Agency received after it opened.

On the other hand, the middle-aged couple who were quarreling with Ms. Cai watched the whole process with cold eyes. After learning that Su Hao helped them find the whereabouts of their missing daughter for free, they just said a faint thank you.
