The ultimate master in the city

Chapter 88 The Old Lady in the Toilet?

Monk Yuanzhi was a true northerner, rude, domineering, and principled. He disliked things that others had used, and he disliked being too close to men, finding it unsettling. Even when he slept in the same bed with Zhou Fengchen, they were on opposite sides of each other.

His behavior at this moment was very strange. He kept staring at Zhang Kang, this grown man, and even quietly moved closer, as if he wanted to kiss him.

Zhou Fengchen got goosebumps all over and opened the window, asking, "Monk, what are you doing? You're not gay, are you?"

Monk Yuanzhi was taken aback, then turned around and laughed, "This grandson's snoring and grimacing is quite amusing."

He spoke somewhat unclearly and deliberately covered his mouth.

Zhou Fengchen jumped into the room, looking at him with a puzzled expression, "Why are you talking like that?"

Monk Yuanzhi coughed and said, "I haven't been feeling well these past two days. I'm dizzy, have a sore throat, and my mouth is full of blisters, so I can't speak clearly."

"Then you should go to the hospital to get checked out tomorrow," Zhou Fengchen said casually, then looked at Zhang Kang's face. Sure enough! This guy was grinning when he was asleep, which looked quite amusing.

Monk Yuanzhi then asked, "You went to investigate, right? What did you find out?"

Zhou Fengchen was feeling down and didn't want to talk. He waved his hand and said, "Nothing much. Let's talk about it tomorrow. Time to sleep."

Monk Yuanzhi said "Oh" without asking any further questions, then crawled into bed and soon began to snore.

Zhou Fengchen took off his clothes and checked the wounds inflicted by the child's sword shadow. There were seven or eight wounds in total, none of them were big and had no impact.

He lay on the bed with his hands behind his head, pondering what Qi Lian'er and the two people beside him were up to. They didn't seem like students. Were they just testing him for fun?

And what the hell is that big-eared monster? Why is it standing on the roof of the girls' dormitory and picking a fight with me?

I couldn't figure it out no matter how much I thought about it, and before I knew it, I had fallen asleep.

The next morning, Zhang Kang went to class, and Monk Yuanzhi said goodbye and went to the hospital for an IV drip.

After finishing breakfast, Zhou Fengchen was bored and wandered around the campus. He eventually came to a place that resembled a park, with many flowers, plants and ornamental trees. A winding stone path led to both ends, with a gap of one step too wide and two steps too wide.

There were many wooden benches under the ornamental trees, and many students who hadn't started class were sitting together chatting in twos and threes.

Zhou Fengchen found an empty seat, stretched, and looked at the blue sky through the trees. Suddenly, he felt a little dizzy.

Although he didn't say it, the incident of the myriad demons escaping from Qinling Xiaomi Mountain kept lingering in his mind, and he felt restless whenever he thought about it.

He wondered if he could find his sister, Zhou Linglong, and talk to her about it after things at school were over.

Just then, a faint scent of lavender wafted from the side, and a girl sat down close to him.

Zhou Fengchen turned his head and saw Qi Lian'er holding two cups of milk tea, smiling as she looked him up and down.

Qi Lian'er actually looks quite pretty when she smiles. She has very white teeth and a pair of small tiger teeth, and even her once-fierce eyebrows have softened considerably.

"May I ask, what sect or school do you belong to?" Qi Lian'er asked, handing over a cup of milk tea.

Zhou Fengchen didn't stand on ceremony with her, took the milk tea, inserted the straw, took a sip, and said casually, "It's not bad, quite sweet."

Qi Lian'er scoffed, "You brag without even thinking. You think you can reach this level through self-study?"

Zhou Fengchen shrugged. "You won't believe me even if I tell you. What can I do?"

Qi Lian'er took a sip of milk tea and said to herself, "Your clone technique is quite interesting, but... it's not that scary. If I'm not mistaken, it's not a real clone, but a very profound teleportation technique. This kind of magic puts a lot of strain on the body. When you were little, did your master always break all your bones and then put them back together? You had to do this every year."

You guessed right!

Zhou Fengchen was surprised, but smiled dismissively on the surface.

Seeing his expression, Qi Lian'er seemed quite angry. She frowned and said, "Zhou Fengchen, right? I don't want to waste my breath on you. Let's forget about the incident last night when they injured my friend, since they started it. But you'd better not interfere in school matters. Leave now."

Zhou Fengchen was taken aback, then his face hardened. "What do you mean? You didn't kill those girls, did you?"

"Of course not! Why would we kill someone?" Qi Lian'er said.

Zhou Fengchen was confused. "Then why can't I get involved? What's it to you?"

"Because I know what happened, but you don't. Mind your own business!" Qi Lian'er stood up, turned around and left.

Zhou Fengchen opened his mouth as if to call out to her, but didn't know what to say.

They know, but they don't? Will it kill them to meddle?

Why not just kill the evil spirits in the school? Is it really that complicated?

Shaking his head, he also got up and went back to his dormitory.

Monk Yuanzhi didn't return at noon; no one knew where he had gone. Zhang Kang returned and said he had found the information on the three people. He turned on the computer, opened the email, and showed it to Zhou Fengchen.

The screen displayed the personal profiles of Qi Lian'er and two others. Qi Lian'er herself didn't mention it, but the petite girl was named Sang Rongrong, a junior majoring in finance. The boy with the squinty eyes was named Zhang Shisan, a senior majoring in accounting.

Seeing Zhou Fengchen engrossed in the document, Zhang Kang shook his head and said, "The file date is ten days ago. This information looks fake. They're probably like you, parachuted in from somewhere."

Zhou Fengchen nodded.

At this point, Zhang Kang said, "I've found Sun Hong's three roommates before she died. We've arranged to meet at the playground at 9 pm tonight, under the pretense of introducing them to potential partners. What do you think?"

Zhou Fengchen's lips twitched. "I guess... it's okay!"

……

Zhang Kang went to class again in the afternoon. Around five or six o'clock, Monk Yuanzhi returned to the dormitory, but he looked listless and listless. He lay down on the bed, patted his forehead, and said, "Brother, I'm about to die!"

"You're talking nonsense," Zhou Fengchen said impatiently. "Just focus on your treatment. I'll handle this; you don't need to worry about it!"

"Alright!" Monk Yuanzhi wrapped himself tightly in the blanket and crawled inside.

Zhou Fengchen looked at him with a puzzled expression, still feeling that something was not quite right. After thinking for a moment, she shook her head, turned around, turned on Zhang Kang's computer, and started playing Tetris.

Around 8 p.m., Zhang Kang returned with a strange expression and said it was almost time, then took Zhou Fengchen to the playground.

When I arrived, three girls were already waiting for me. They were all ordinary female college students, nothing special, but they were clearly dressed up carefully, with new clothes and makeup on.

Seeing Zhang Kang bring Zhou Fengchen over, the three girls looked him over curiously and seemed quite satisfied. Two of the girls then pushed the other girl forward.

The girl was quite shy. "Y-hello, my name is Zhang Qian."

"hehe……"

Zhou Fengchen's face flushed slightly. He glanced at Zhang Kang, who was suppressing a laugh, coughed, and cut to the chase, stating his identity: "There's been a misunderstanding. I'm not here to find a partner. Actually, I'm a ghost hunter hired by the school leaders. Please cooperate!"

Upon hearing this, the three girls' eyes widened. They looked at Zhang Kang, then at Zhou Fengchen, and asked, "W-what does this mean? What cooperation?"

Zhou Fengchen said, "Isn't the meaning clear enough? You should know how Sun Hong died, right?"

The three girls' faces changed instantly. Zhang Qian gritted her teeth and said, "Sun Hong encountered a ghost, an old woman!"

Zhou Fengchen nodded and asked, "Where did you meet her? Did she say anything to you before she died?"

Zhang Qian's face turned deathly pale. "I ran into her in the old bathroom in the dorm. That old lady is still in there!"
