Chapter 773 -443: The Wishful Abacus
The next morning, as soon as it was light, Yan Junze woke up.
He looked around the room, the three sisters each maintained the position they had the night before, without having moved.
After washing up, he went downstairs for breakfast and then gave Ma Jing a call.
As expected, this woman had pulled an all-nighter working overtime and had finished the follow-up work on the case that had been troubling the Exorcism Squad in Aries District, just waiting for Yan Junze’s report.
He agreed to come right over and told her not to bother sending a car to pick him up.
After hanging up the phone, Yan Junze said to the three sisters, “After we get to the Exorcism Squad’s office building, don’t follow me. There might be large-scale detectors and magnetic field weapons targeting strangenesses, so stay away and wait for me.”
Zhuang Wenxian nodded in agreement, the other two sisters gave no response.
After Yan Junze left the room, the three vanished without a trace.
Yan Junze left the hotel, hailed a taxi on the street, and followed the address Ma Jing had sent him to the Exorcists’ office building.
This content is taken from fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm.
According to the regulations of the Exorcists’ headquarters in Great Capital Huaying, the offices of Exorcists in each area were tucked away in the nooks and crannies of a city, not as prominent as the headquarters.
Even the headquarters, from the outside, did not look particularly distinctive, resembling an ordinary business building, making a low-profile appearance.
The office location for the Aries District Exorcists was similar to that in Tianmeng District, looking like an old-fashioned three-story residential house, situated on the East City Border in Aries City District.
After getting out of the taxi, Ma Jing, who had been waiting outside the building, greeted him and paid the cab fare for him.
Ma Jing’s complexion was somewhat pale, but staying up all night hadn’t immediately turned her into a panda-eyed woman; she might have grown accustomed to regular all-nighters and still looked very energetic.
“Is Cao Heng alright?” Yan Junze asked.
Ma Jing shook her head, “He has stabilized, Brother Cao has good physical strength, and it’s just a matter of time before he fully recovers.”
“That’s good,” Yan Junze nodded.
“About the person you asked me to help you find yesterday, my friend at the Security Bureau said that we should have a result by noon today at the latest,” Ma Jing said.
The two chatted as they went up to the second-floor office.
The computer was turned on, and a new document had already been created; Ma Jing was just waiting for Yan Junze to dictate so she could transcribe and refine his sentences.
After making Yan Junze a cup of tea, the two began to input the report.
About an hour later, the captain of the Aries District Exorcism Squad came over and called Yan Junze to the upstairs office for a chat. After expressing his gratitude, he even offered Yan Junze some local Aries District specialties.
Unable to decline again, Yan Junze returned to Ma Jing’s second-floor office carrying a large bag of assorted local products, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Ma Jing pretended not to see, her face beaming with a smile. She had already revised the report and suggested Yan Junze check it once more, as due to the high level of the strangeness event, the report would be handed over to the Huaying District headquarters.
Yan Junze wasn’t particularly interested and glanced over it perfunctorily.
In the report, it mentioned three strangenesses, each more powerful than the one before. However, he had concealed the fact that they were triplets and the supposition that the three strangenesses had been killed brutally.
The subsequent details were easy for Yan Junze to describe, as the headquarters of Huaying District were quite aware that he, the special-hire Exorcist of the headquarters, was best known for his Buddhist-style exorcism methods; not using this approach would be uncharacteristic of him, Yan Junze.
While Yan Junze was checking the report, Ma Jing went out to take a call. She came back with joy written all over her face and said, “We’ve found that old man Zheng Bo.”
“Where is he?” Yan Junze looked up calmly at her.
“Zheng Bo never came back after he left Aries twenty years ago. By checking flight records, we found that he had been to Tianyi, Shou Zheng, Yannan, and Luoxia District. One year ago, he bought a house in Luguang District, and we found the procedures he had gone through for residential registration at that time. Afterward, there were no other discoveries,” she explained.
“So he might be in Luguang?” Yan Junze mused to himself.
“It’s possible, but he might have moved out long ago, too,” Ma Jing shrugged, “After all, the registration procedures back then were not perfect, but if his house has been sold, there would definitely be a record.”
“Could you give me the specific address of the house in Luguang District?” Yan Junze asked.
Ma Jing had already grabbed a piece of paper and a pen, and she quickly jotted down the address before passing the note to Yan Junze with a smile, “This address is kind of special, huh!”
“The report is ready,” Yan Junze pocketed the note casually and pointed to the computer screen, “It’s well-written.”
After leaving the Exorcist’s office building, Ma Jing insisted on having a specialized car take him to the airport, which Yan Junze did not refuse.
About forty minutes later, they arrived at the airport.
Instead of buying a ticket back to Tianmeng, Yan Junze purchased one to Luguang.
After sitting in the departure lounge for about two hours, he finally boarded the plane.
Sitting on the plane, he took out the note with the address and looked at it, recalling what Ma Jing had said before he left, a strong premonition rose in his heart.
Zheng Bo was probably still living in Luguang, most likely he had never left.
…
Luguang District, XFZ Fortress Community.
XFZ used to be the closest village fortress to Luguang City District, but following the expansion of the city, it was incorporated into the urban area.
Put simply, it’s somewhat like an urban-rural junction, having the potential for urban development but due to years of excessive self-constructed houses, large development costs, a significant part of the area has not yet been developed.
