After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 542

Chapter 542: Corpse Downstairs
Zhouzhou was furious, her chubby face puffed up like a pufferfish. Despite not wanting to delay matters, she could only stand gloomily beside Ye Lingfeng.

Aware of her penchant for small fortunes, Ye Lingfeng soothingly patted her little head, “Don’t worry, after this is over, I’ll apply for a reward for you.”

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou’s eyes lit up, immediately embracing his leg and gushing, “Daddy is the best, I love Daddy the most.”

Ye Lingfeng raised an eyebrow, a hint of pride and regret in his expression. It was a pity he hadn’t recorded what had just transpired.

Unaware of the father-daughter duo’s thoughts, the director stepped forward, wiping the sweat off his forehead, “The corpse you mentioned, do you know where it is now?”

Speaking of this, Zhouzhou’s little face also turned serious, waving her chubby paw, “Follow me.”

The director was taken aback, looking to Ye Lingfeng for clarification. Seeing him nod slightly, he quickly followed with his team.

He couldn’t help but wonder when Ye Lingfeng had become so agreeable. This little girl was not simple at all.

Zhouzhou paid no mind to what he thought, leading the way with her short legs until they reached the location of the building just now.

Coincidentally, Luo Jin also walked out from inside.

“Brother Fox,” Zhouzhou waved her chubby paw at him, “Our daddy and I are here.”

Upon hearing this, Luo Jin’s face darkened. Who was she calling “our daddy”? He hadn’t even considered acknowledging Ye Lingfeng yet.

Ah, it was impossible for him to ever call Ye Lingfeng “Daddy” in this lifetime!

Ye Lingfeng was in a good mood, “Eldest son, stand aside, don’t get hurt later.”

Luo Jin glared at him fiercely, standing as far away from the father-daughter duo as possible, with a stern expression that seemed to say “Keep out.”

It would be best if those two who knew him didn’t come near either. Always trying to take advantage of him.

The director watched this scene bewilderedly, not knowing what was going on, but he didn’t dwell on it and continued, “Where is this corpse you mentioned?”

Zhouzhou pointed with her chubby paw, “Right here, under the ground.”

The director looked to where she pointed, furrowing his brow, “Do you mean under this building?”

Zhouzhou tossed a copper coin and, observing the divination on it, nodded confidently, “Yes.”

After speaking, she ran to Luo Jin’s side and tugged at his sleeve, “Brother Fox, can I borrow the Soul Nourishing Talisman?”

Luo Jin glanced at her and, not wanting to hinder the main task, didn’t make things difficult for her.

Once she got the Soul Nourishing Talisman, Zhouzhou immediately stuck it onto a small compass. The compass immediately began to spin, finally settling in one direction.

Zhouzhou followed and stopped at a certain spot, pointing with her chubby foot, her face solemn, “It’s right here.”

Seeing where she pointed, the man who had just been disdainful earlier suddenly went weak in the knees, his face turning pale.

Seeing his reaction, they knew something was definitely wrong.

The director’s expression also darkened. This was the area they were planning to develop, the future economic center of the city.

They had sold this piece of land to their company based on their sincerity. If they dared to do something here, their future plans would be ruined! These people.

The director was itching with anger, immediately ordering, “Get some people here.”

Today, they would demolish this building and figure out what was going on!

Upon hearing this, the man panicked, “No, you can’t do this. We’ve spent a lot of money, yes, that’s right, you have no right to interfere.”

At this, Ye Lingfeng sneered, “If there’s no corpse underneath, I’ll cover the cost.”

The man’s face went even paler, too frightened to even argue back.

Seeing this, the director couldn’t be more certain. He didn’t waste time with him, immediately calling for some people and instructing others to go arrest the boss.

He was just a lackey; the boss was probably the one orchestrating everything.

Before long, someone arrived with a bulldozer.

They hesitantly asked if the director really intended to demolish the building. Seeing him nod, they began.

They couldn’t help but wonder why they were tearing down a perfectly good building that hadn’t even been finished yet. What a pity, they heard it cost a lot of money.

Thinking this way in their hearts, they still followed orders and started working.

Before long, the painstakingly built high-rise was reduced to rubble.

Next, the director instructed them to move the things Zhouzhou had pointed out and begin digging.

As they wielded their shovels, Zhouzhou hurriedly said, “Be gentle, the uncle doesn’t even have a coffin on him. Don’t damage his bones.”

Her words sent shivers down everyone’s spines, chilling them to the bone.

How eerie.

The director also thought so, looking at the soft little girl with a strange expression.

However, Zhouzhou paid no mind to their thoughts, trotting up.

Worried about hurting the body, everyone’s movements halted.

Then they saw Zhouzhou fiddle with the compass in her hand, pinching her chubby paw and saying, “It’s right here, two meters deeper.”

After speaking, Zhouzhou looked at Ye Lingfeng.

Ye Lingfeng nodded slightly, telling the others, “Be careful.”

Everyone nodded, and their actions indeed became gentler, especially as they approached the two-meter mark.

Originally, they didn’t believe it, thinking she was just a little girl who was kind-hearted and casually saying things.

However, the next moment, just as the shovel was about to continue, the director suddenly saw something, his pupils shrinking, hastily saying, “Wait.”

With that, he walked forward with a serious expression. Instead of having them continue, he called for a few police officers.

In the brown soil, a hint of blue cloth was clearly visible.

He exerted a little force, and an arm emerged.

This frightened everyone around, causing their legs to go weak and their faces to pale. There was actually someone there!

The man also collapsed in fright, his face devoid of color. It was over, all over.

“Be careful,” the director cautioned.

The police officers nodded, slowly digging out the corpse. Cement and sand mixed together, but the vague outline of a person could still be seen.

Seeing this, everyone present felt a chill run down their spine.

Who could have done such a cruel thing?

Zhouzhou’s little fists clenched tightly, angrily running up to the man and giving him a beating.

Her punches seemed soft, but only those who had truly experienced them knew how ruthless they were.

The man screamed hysterically, but no one came to his aid.

Good. To turn a perfectly fine person into this, he deserved it!

The spirit in the Soul Nourishing Talisman seemed to sense that its body had been unearthed and subconsciously emerged from the charm.

Upon seeing the man, hatred flashed in its eyes, rushing towards him.

However, just as it was about to reach him, a chubby paw suddenly grabbed it.

Zhouzhou looked at it earnestly, “Uncle, don’t. If you kill him, you’ll disappear too. Don’t worry, he will be held accountable by the law.”

These were words Qin Xu had said.

Zhouzhou remembered them.

Hearing her words, the spirit finally calmed down a bit, looking at its own body beside it. Unable to hold back, it sobbed and crouched down on the ground.

A cold wind blew through the scorching summer day, and everyone looked at the little girl who seemed to be talking to thin air, their eyes widening.

How strange this little girl was. Could she… really see those things?
