Chapter 1065: Ghost Substitute, Shi Ran
Chi Shuyan hadn’t paid much attention to that person called Shi Ran, but from what Jiang Duo and the others were saying, this person probably knew something that they didn’t.
After all, he was close to the first victim and had stayed in the same room. Even if he hadn’t paid attention to Wang Yu that night, he would still be able to sense that there was something strange about him.
From what Jiang Duo and Xiao Ningjin said, she could only confirm that there really was something strange about that Swan Lake in the mountains. However, she still couldn’t confirm what kind of dirty thing they had encountered, unless they could give her very useful information.
Chi Shuyan asked, “Just now, which one was Shi Ran? Forget it…”
“Master Chi, he was the quietest and fairest person just now! That’s Shi Ran!” Jiang Duo suddenly said.
Chi Shuyan still had some impression of this person, mainly because he was the most delicate-looking one in the group. In addition, he had been the last to leave, so she had gotten a few looks at him.
This person seemed very quiet. From beginning to end, it seemed there had been more fear in his eyes compared with everyone else. When the group first entered, it was Shi Ran who had looked at her the most.
Jiang Duo also knew that he had probably given her too little information, so he couldn’t help but say, “Master Chi, I’ll call that kid right away.”
Unfortunately, after he tried a few times, Shi Ran’s phone was turned off. Xiao Ningjin and the others also took turns calling, but the other party’s phone was still turned off.
Chi Shuyan also knew that Shi Ran probably didn’t trust her, so she said, “It’s fine. Contact me if you have any more information!”
Jiang Duo was afraid of her leaving. If they really ran into some ghost halfway, how could they contact Master Chi when they were dead?
Jiang Duo hurriedly said, “Master Chi, we can give you a 20 million deposit first. Master, can you stay with us for the next few days?”
Xiong Luoying and Chang Hao really didn’t believe that the young lady in front of them could protect them. If they really ran into something, would they be the ones who had to protect her instead?
As for Xiao Ningjin, he treated this “Master Chi” in front of him as his last resort. There was no one who wasn’t afraid of death.
He really felt that it was too strange that something had suddenly happened to Wang Yu and Shen Zhihua.
Chi Shuyan destroyed Jiang Duo’s fantasy and said, “Even if you pay a deposit, I can’t accompany you every day. It would be fine if I didn’t have classes. Speaking of which, have you guys been staying together recently?”
Jiang Duo, Xiong Luoying and Xiao Ningjin shook their heads.
“You see?” Besides, she didn’t think they could afford to pay her for sticking close and protecting them every day.
Seeing Jiang Duo’s disappointment and despair, Chi Shuyan said, “I think you should be fine for the next few days. Don’t worry, and don’t waste your money on me being a bodyguard.”
As she said that, she glanced a few more times at Jiang Duo. With this jade pendant around his neck, he would be fine for the time being.
As soon as Chi Shuyan said that, Jiang Duo was overjoyed and gripped the jade pendant that was around his neck. “Master Chi, is that true? If I have this jade pendant, will that dirty thing really not harm me?”
Chi Shuyan demurred, “It depends, but it’s true that you’ll be fine for a while!”
As Chi Shuyan spoke, she picked up the jade pendant around Jiang Duo’s neck and took a look. She realized that this kid’s luck was indeed good. He had bought a high-grade level 1 jade pendant with defensive and offensive capabilities. This thing could save this kid’s life three times, but when the inside of this jade pendant completely shattered after that, it would be useless.
