Dream Walker: Feng Shui Master Bai Ya
Chapter 15 Shadow Dog Honest Man Shang Muchen
Upon seeing the black dog, Shang Muchen instinctively exclaimed, "That's it! I recognize it!"
Professor Eileen was startled and quickly shut down the machine, turning to Shang Muchen and asking, "Young Shang, what do you mean?"
Shang Muchen recounted to Professor Eileen and Li Weiqiang his experience of witnessing a black dog eating a stray dog the previous night, as well as his trip to Tianlu Jiayuan with his fourth uncle to assess the feng shui of the area today.
After finishing his explanation, Shang Muchen asked tentatively, "Um, you guys don't think I'm talking nonsense, do you?"
Li Weiqiang, on the other hand, took it very seriously, writing down everything Shang Muchen said, and repeatedly confirming, "Little Shang, are you sure that person's name is Kurosaki Hideto?"
"That's what the property manager said."
"I understand. I'll send people to Tianlu Jiayuan to investigate right away."
"Officer Li, um... what I said was so outrageous, you actually believed it?"
Li Weiqiang laughed and said, "Xiao Shang, the strange things we veteran detectives have seen would scare you kids to death if we told you."
As Conan Doyle once said, "If you eliminate all the impossibilities, then whatever remains, however outrageous, must be the truth."
We always maintain a reconnaissance approach, leaving no possibility unexplored.
We hope you can cooperate with us in the future if needed.
"I have no problem with that. I hope your investigation goes smoothly." Shang Muchen nodded.
Eileen took the footage recorded by Shang Muchen and took it back for research.
Shang Muchen helped her disassemble all the instruments, load them into the car, and worked on it until evening.
After finishing everything, Eileen patted Shang Muchen on the shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Little Shang, you're really capable."
I'll pay you for your work later, don't worry, I won't let you work for nothing, my research funding is plenty.
By the way, are you interested in pursuing a master's degree?
Although I no longer supervise master's students, I can introduce you to a suitable supervisor, so you can continue doing research with me.
Shang Muchen, who had long been too lazy to study, initially wanted to refuse, but suddenly remembered that his brother Shang Muming had told him in a dream to get as close to Eileen as possible, and also thought that as long as he interacted more with Eileen, he could be with Liu Qingyang, so Shang Muchen said:
"Professor Ai, I'm ashamed to say that my academic performance is not very good, and I think it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky to take the postgraduate entrance examination."
Now that I've already received my graduation certificate, I can't go back to school to apply for postgraduate admission without taking the entrance exam.
However, Professor Ai, I find your research very interesting, and I am particularly interested in it. I would be happy to help you with your research.
"I'm just an amateur researcher. If you need anything, just call me. I'll be there whenever you need me, and I'll do whatever it takes to help you."
Eileen nodded and said, "Yes, what you said makes sense. Even I probably couldn't admit you as a master's student without going through the preliminary exam and using connections."
"Then I'll leave it to you. I'll add you to the research group's roster, just like you said, so you can participate in my research in the field of the supernatural as an amateur scholar."
"Okay, thank you."
"I'm all set here, Xiaoliu. You two go have some fun. Thanks for your hard work," Eileen said with a smile. "Where are you two going on your date tonight? I'm driving, so I can give you a ride."
Liu Qingyang blushed and waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "What date? I just asked him to help me with some work! I... I'm going back to school..."
"That won't do!" Eileen said reproachfully, "Little Liu, how could you do that?"
You're just making a fool of him run around. No way, that's not fair.
Xiao Shang has worked hard all day, so you should treat him well.
I've approved the budget for you. You're going to take him out to eat and shop. That's an order. You're not allowed back in the dorm before 10 PM!
Liu Qingyang pouted, looking a little shy.
Shang Muchen quickly smiled and said, "No need for Liu Qingyang to spend money, I brought my own!"
"Tch, did you see that? That young man isn't stupid at all. You're making him work for free? He's envious of going on a date with you!" Eileen covered her mouth and laughed, ordering, "You have to go on the date!"
Okay, I'll take you two to Kunwu Square. My husband told me that's where young people these days love to go.
Liu Qingyang pouted, looking unwilling, and sat in the passenger seat of the truck.
With nowhere else to go, Shang Muchen couldn't possibly squeeze into the driver's seat with the two ladies, so he sat in the cargo hold filled with instruments.
Despite the clattering and rattling along the way, Shang Muchen was in a very good mood. Although the warehouse was pitch black, he felt clear-headed, as if he could see through the warehouse in a dream.
My fourth uncle sent me a message:
Book me a plane ticket; I'm going to Oyster Bay tomorrow.
【Tickets booked, please check your inbox. Would you like me to go with you?】
"No need, I'll consult an expert. Today's events were too strange; absolutely do not tell anyone."
Is it because my fourth uncle forbids me to talk about it?
I've already told the police!
Helpless, Shang Muchen composed a message and told his fourth uncle what had happened later that day.
There was a long silence from my fourth uncle's side, then he made a phone call:
"Xiao Chen, you're too honest. Sigh, you've already said it."
However, I advise you that if Li Weiqiang asks you to help with an investigation, you absolutely must not listen to him.
I know that guy very well. He's a real jerk. He acts one way in front of people and another way behind their backs. When he needs you, he's like the Monkey King, but when he doesn't, he's a complete coward!
I've made him betray me several times, you absolutely cannot trust him!
Let's leave it at that, remember?
"Fourth Uncle, I've got it."
"Okay, don't forget to think about using an alias."
Uncle Four hung up the phone, the truck stopped, the sealed container opened, and a breath of fresh air wafted in. Liu Qingyang stood outside the truck, waiting for Shang Muchen.
Shang Muchen jumped out of the truck, locked the cargo door, waved to the driver's seat, and Professor Eileen drove the truck away.
Liu Qingyang asked casually, "Where to eat?"
"Go ahead and say it," Shang Muchen replied with a smile, "Ladies first."
"You decide, isn't it to repay you?"
"Hot pot!" Shang Muchen pointed to the large signboard.
"Okay! I've heard this place is quite popular, but I've never actually eaten there before."
Upon seeing Liu Qingyang nod generously, Shang Muchen raised his hand, gesturing for her to follow him.
"Hey, I thought you were going to hold hands." Liu Qingyang wrinkled her nose and laughed.
"Didn't you say we were just acting?" Shang Muchen said. "I'm the most honest person I can be. I never push my luck."
"If you're going to act, you have to go all the way. Let's go!" Liu Qingyang generously grabbed Shang Muchen's hand and pulled him toward the hot pot restaurant.
"Wow, you're really something!" Shang Muchen immediately perked up, smiling as he asked, "Miss, how far do you plan to go with your 'full package'?"
Liu Qingyang laughed: "Oh my, Shang Muchen, what do you want from a pretty boy like you? What's the whole package?"
If you're not afraid of dying, come up here and try it yourself!
Come on, I want to see just how capable you are.
If you can really get me to submit, I might actually give in to you, kid!
As she spoke, Liu Qingyang mustered all her strength and twisted Shang Muchen's thumb with her backhand, causing him considerable pain.
"Ouch! Sister, be gentle! It'll break! Let go! Have mercy!"
Just then, someone walked over, adjusted their glasses, and greeted them:
"Hey? Yang-jie? Lu-ge invited you to dinner, why didn't you go? Didn't you say you were working with your advisor?"
