Chapter 681: enemy

However, when it was lighted up on this day, I suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Moreover, this knock on the door was very urgent, different from the previous ghost knocks, and also awakened the owner of the coffin shop.
"who is that?"
Seeing the dim sky outside, the boss calmed down a bit inside, because he knew that these ghosts would not come again after dawn, and the knocking sound was different from the past, so he concluded that this should not be a ghost.
"Boss, be careful."
I whispered to the boss.
"It's me, open the door quickly."
At this moment, some familiar voices came from outside the door, which sounded like Tong Hua's voice.
But I still didn't believe it easily, but at this time Tong Hua's voice came from outside the door again: "I am Tong Hua, please open the door for me quickly."
After the boss heard this voice, he immediately said to me: "It's your companion, I'll open the door quickly. Although the sky is slightly bright now, it is not necessarily peaceful. If you leave him outside alone, I am afraid it will What happened."
After saying this, the boss was going to the door to open the door.
But I immediately reached out and stopped him.
"What? Your companion is outside, why don't you open the door?"
The boss looked at me questioningly, not knowing why I did this.
"Not necessarily, if it is Tong Hua, it is impossible for him not to come in. I am afraid this Tong Hua is pretending to be ghosts."
After hearing what I said, the boss quickly took a few steps back in fright, and tremblingly said with his finger at the door: "Are you saying that the one outside the door is not a human, but a ghost?"
"Yes, he might have changed into my companion's voice, in order to confuse us to open the door. If we open the door once, the next thing will be troublesome. We might as well wait a while until the day is complete. Say it after it’s lit."
In my heart, I think this is really weird, if it is Tong Hua, it is impossible for him not to come in.
The boss was also very frightened when he heard what I said, and immediately nodded and said: "Yes, yes, I listen to you. If you say that, you can be safe. When the day is completely light, the ghosts will not exist. Now, if your companion is still there, it must be him. This is the safest way. Let him wait outside for a while."
So we stopped monitoring the movement outside the door. After the sound knocked on the door for a while, the sky outside immediately brightened up, so the knock on the door disappeared, so I can directly confirm who knocked on the door. It's definitely not Tong Hua.
After a while, the door was opened, Tong Hua walked in.
I greeted him immediately and said: "Someone knocked on the door not long ago and said that you asked us to open the door for him. Is it really you?"
After Tong Hua heard it, he shook his head in surprise, and then said: "I just came back, and I didn't knock on the door just now. You didn't open the door for him, I'm afraid it is a ghost."
"Sure enough, I thought it was a bit weird, so I didn't open the door to him. It seems that my choice just now was right."
When I heard Tong Hua's words, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that my choice just now was indeed the right one. If we opened the door at that time, the ghost would have come in.
When the boss heard this, he was also afraid, clutching his chest and said, "Fortunately, I heard that the Daoist did not open the door. If I opened the door with the key, my life will be lost. I'm afraid I did that. His dream is about to come true."
"Don't worry, we won't hurt you."
I quickly comforted the boss.
However, at this moment we heard a sound of footsteps, and when we looked up, we found that Wu Wu and Ji Xi were back.
"You two are back, are there any clues this night? No injuries, right?"
I immediately stepped forward to check them. After all, Ji Xi still had some wounds on her body, and they indeed went out for another night.
Wu Wu and Ji Xi shook their heads at the same time, and there were some excitement on Ji Xi's face, it seemed that things had made some progress.
"I tell you, we may have found a clue!"
Ji Xi said very excitedly.
I looked at Wu Wu, Wu Wu also nodded, and then said: "At that time, we were the ghost who went out. We didn't let him leave us this time. We followed him around, and deliberately dropped behind him. The distance made him think it had thrown us away, but in fact, we just followed him all the time and found him disappeared in another coffin shop in the city."
Wu Wu didn't wait for me to say anything after saying this, the boss standing next to me immediately looked very excited, and then said: "I knew it, I knew it must be him, it must be him who wanted me! He must have found these ghosts just to kill me!"
The boss's emotions suddenly became very agitated, his whole face flushed, and he looked very excited and very angry.
"Boss, please calm down and tell us what is going on. We don't know why you are so excited."
I immediately comforted the boss.
The boss nodded before, and then he said to us with two breaths: "There are only two coffin shops in Baixian Town, one is mine, and the other is the one in the west of the city.
We have been young for a while, and there are not many people here, so the two of us are rivals in business. Therefore, the two of us usually look at each other unpleasantly. We often quarrel, and sometimes we even do it, but nothing particularly terrible has happened before.
This time I originally thought it was a bit weird. Although I opened a coffin shop, it was safe and sound for many years. How could I recruit these ghosts all at once? Moreover, these ghosts are killing me one by one for no reason. I asked myself to behave properly and I have never done anything wrong. How could these ghosts be brought to kill me? He had hired those ghosts for a long time, just to marry my life! "
The boss probably said some of the reasons. I nodded after listening. If so, Li You really hired some ghosts to kill him.
But we are not sure that this is the reason the ghosts came here, and so far there is no evidence that the ghosts were hired by this person.
"Boss, don't get excited. In the final analysis, this matter is just your own guess. We have to investigate it first, no matter it is this way or not. You can't arrest people based on your guess."
I reassure the boss again.
