From the time travel, I became extraordinary
Chapter 160 Doubts
Chapter 160 Doubts
"Boom boom boom boom..."
Amid the roar of motorcycles that blew up the streets, Jiang Yao sped all the way. After arriving near the Jinxia Building, he found a place to park the car and strode into the building.
Originally, he thought that tonight would be a pleasant evening and he could have an in-depth exchange with Cheng Feier.
Unfortunately, after sending Cheng Feier to her doorstep, the woman only gave him a hug and did not invite him upstairs to have a drink of water or eat something.
Although he was a little disappointed, Jiang Yao didn't force anything.
I rode my bike all the way back, and by the time I got back to Jinxia Building, it was already one or two o'clock in the morning.
"Uncle Lin, are you still cleaning at this time?"
As soon as he reached the elevator door, Jiang Yao saw the elevator door open and Uncle Lin, holding a broom in one hand and a mop in the other, walked out of the elevator.
Jiang Yao goes in and out of the building every day. Although he has not had much dealings with the new building manager Uncle Lin, he must know him.
Nodding and smiling at him, Jiang Yao greeted him politely.
"Brother Yao, OK!"
"Where's Sister Feifei? She's not with you? I thought you were going tonight..."
Uncle Lin was stunned when he saw Jiang Yao.
Then, with a beer belly, he put on his signature honest smile again.
"She and I are just ordinary friends. She was in a bad mood, so I took her for a ride on my bike twice."
"After sending her home, I came back."
"A nest of gold or silver is not as good as your own doghouse. Although other people's homes are good, I still feel more comfortable and at ease in my little house."
Jiang Yao laughed and responded with a smile.
Men, after all, care about their reputation. He couldn't say that when he arrived downstairs of Cheng Feier's building, she didn't invite him up, so he went back to his home in shame!
"I understand, I understand. My own home is definitely better!" Uncle Lin agreed, nodding repeatedly.
Others thought Jiang Yao lived alone, but he knew that Jiang Yao had a woman at home.
Knowing this inside story, Uncle Lin would of course think it was very normal for Jiang Yao to rush back home at this time.
In the time it took to say a few words, Jiang Yao had already walked into the elevator.
Watching the elevator door close and Jiang Yao's figure disappear from his sight, the honest smile on Uncle Lin's face began to become evil again.
"Breaking into this person's home rashly could easily alert the enemy, and we don't know if we can gain anything."
"It's too late to get a medium to deal with him. We have to think of other ways slowly."
"We live in the same building, and he hangs around under my nose every day. I don't believe I can't deal with him. One day, I will make him understand how terrible it is to offend a sorcerer."
As the numbers representing the floor where the elevator was located began to change continuously, Uncle Lin's face turned grim and he began to laugh strangely.

On the 14th floor, in room 16.
After taking a shower, Jiang Yao just lay down on the bed when the faucet in the bathroom turned on automatically and the sound of water reached his ears.
"Is this... Qingqing coming back?"
"It's been almost a month since she last showed up. Has she finally recovered?"
Feeling delighted, Jiang Yao looked around.
Then, he didn't know what he was thinking of. He looked helpless and sighed: "Qingqing, are you there?"
"Let me tell you, I haven't been feeling well lately."
"Wait a few days, when I have some free time, you can come out and accompany me again, what do you think?"
Without switching to the Yin Sha body state, he couldn't see Qingqing or touch her, let alone do something with her.
But after activating the Yin Sha body, he would feel bursts of stabbing pains all over his body whenever he stood in the sun, and he needed to rest for several days before his body recovered.
In the past, he was an idler who stayed at home every day and didn't go out to see anyone, and he didn't care at all.
But now, he has a legitimate job and needs to go to work every day. Plus, he just finished his vacation two days ago, so he probably has no free time at all in this short period of time.
In addition, after the novelty of hunting for something new wore off, going to bed with the ghost girl Qingqing had become somewhat boring and no longer had much appeal to him.
As for the evil energy, he was not in short supply at the moment.
After swallowing the little ghost of the sorcerer alive, although the evil energy he obtained had been completely integrated into his body, it would still take some time as a buffer to completely digest it.
The sound of water coming from the bathroom was sometimes loud and sometimes soft.
Perhaps, after hearing Jiang Yao's words, Qingqing felt dissatisfied and was using this as an opportunity to vent her emotions.
After a while, the sound of water finally disappeared.
Lying on the bed, Jiang Yao fell into a deep sleep without knowing when.
The next day, around nine in the morning.
"Ding-ling-ling... Ding-ling-ling..." The sound of the cell phone ringing woke Jiang Yao up from his sleep. He opened his eyes, still a little dazed, and picked up the phone near the bed and looked at the number on the screen.
"Hello..." When he saw that the person calling was Fang Jieting, he directly pressed the answer button.
"Ayao, are you at home? Are you still asleep?"
"Ok!"
"You live in Jinxia Building, right? Hurry up and get up. I'll go downstairs and wait for you. Let's have morning tea together. By the way, I want to talk to you about the cases I was in charge of before the incident!"
……
Fang Jieting was in a hurry on the phone and didn't even give Jiang Yao a chance to refuse. After saying a few words, she hung up the phone.
"It doesn't matter what case it is. In the cases you are in charge of, I have killed several of the targets."
"They must be related to the secret sorcerer. I have already found out. It's not your turn yet!"
With an unhappy look on his face, Jiang Yao lay on the bed, muttering to himself for a long time.
Last night, he probably fell asleep around three or four in the morning.
At this moment, he was sleeping soundly and was suddenly woken up by a phone call from Fang Jieting. It was inevitable that he felt a little emotional.
After lingering in bed for a long time, he finally gave up sleeping with his head covered. Instead, he put on his clothes and started washing up.
After all, during that period of time, he had been looking for Fang Jieting to ask for various information, hoping to find out the whereabouts of the sorcerer.
He hasn't found any clues here, and Fang Jieting called him early in the morning, probably to see if she could help him.

Jinxia Building, entrance.
Fang Jieting, who also lives in Yau Ma Tei, lives just a few steps away from here.
After calling Jiang Yao, she didn't even drive. It only took her six or seven minutes to get here.
A white shirt and a small suit are her daily attire.
After the black magic on her body was lifted, she had been recuperating. Unfortunately, although almost a week had passed, she still walked a little unsteadily and still looked weak and haggard.
"Uncle Lin? Aren't you over at Yuyuan Building? When did you come here to be the building manager?"
After entering the building, Fang Jieting looked around.
When she saw Uncle Lin sweeping up the garbage with a broom not far away, she was confused and stunned for a long time before she finally confirmed that she was not mistaken. She greeted him with a smile.
"Madam, it's you!"
With a simple and honest look on his face, Uncle Lin hurried over.
While greeting Fang Jieting, he scratched the back of his head with an embarrassed look on his face and explained, "Several people have died in the Royal Garden Building. Neighbors all say that the place is full of evil spirits and is very weird."
"I worked as a building manager there. It was fine during the day, but at night, my scalp would tingle and I would feel chilly."
"It's not easy to find a job at my age. I worked there before, but I had no choice."
"It just so happened that Jinxia Building was recruiting administrators. After I was successfully employed, I immediately quit my previous job and came here."
His explanation was reasonable and Fang Jieting didn't think much about it.
She smiled at Uncle Lin and said, "It's not wrong to be timid. If I were in his place and there were frequent murders, I would definitely move out immediately and make the same choice as you."
"How long have you been working here? Are you getting along well with the residents in the building?"
Originally, Fang Jieting was a staunch atheist, but after experiencing the black magic incident, she did develop some awe for certain things.
Now, if she encounters a case that is obviously unusual, she will definitely seek help from Jiang Yao first, instead of being stubborn and arguing like before.
"Thank you madam for your concern. The residents here are very nice and welcoming, and they speak very nicely."
"Although I have only been working here for a few days, I feel much more cheerful after coming here."
"Madam, what about you? Come here, is there a case?"
Uncle Lin's words sound so sincere, and his smile always gives people a sunny feeling.
"Uncle Lin, you are a very famous person in Yuyuan Building."
"As kind and honest as you are, and someone who works diligently, you will definitely be very popular no matter where you work."
Covering her mouth and laughing, Fang Jieting continued, "I haven't been feeling well lately, so I've been on vacation."
"I came here without any case. I just wanted to find a friend."
Hearing Fang Jieting say this, Uncle Lin patted his chest, as if he was relieved: "It's good that nothing is wrong here in Jinxia Building. I just changed a job and I just want to live here peacefully and retire. If there is any case here again, I really don't know what to do!"
The way he looked, coupled with the tone of his voice, made it easy to associate him with the words timid and cowardly.
Just when Fang Jieting was thinking about how to respond, the elevator door suddenly opened not far away, and Jiang Yao, looking a little lazy, walked out slowly.
