Father is a villainous Buddhist disciple? He'll just be beaten into the light of the righteous

When Shen Ji woke up, he found himself back home.

Moreover, his room had been completely transformed. Everything from the bed to the furniture and decorations had been replaced with things suitable for children, and there were also a lot more toys.

Shen Ji blinked, climbed off the bed, ran to the corridor and looked down, but did not see Shen Jiyuan, only Zhao Tong making a phone call downstairs.

His expression immediately hardened: "Hey, where did Old Deng go?"

This grandson wouldn't actually go to the banquet to find Yun Qingqing, would he?

Sijiu's lazy voice came through: "I went to eat at Suifangzhai last night."

[Huh?] Shen Ji slapped his thigh: [Old Deng didn't invite me to dinner?!]

Si Jiu shrugged: [What are you doing while the other guys are drinking? Drinking milk?]

Shen Ji: [...]

He gritted his teeth: "No, I need to prepare something. Old Deng will definitely start his heart-wrenching, melancholic tirade again when he's drunk!"

What do you need to prepare?

Shen Ji stroked his chin and thought for a moment before saying, "Do you have a wooden fish?"

Sijiu, unsure of his intentions, hesitated and said, "Yes, there is, but my wooden fish..."

"Don't just say 'that,' don't worry, I won't disturb the neighbors!" Shen Ji interrupted him before he could finish, saying, "Give it to me, give it to me."

Sijiu hesitated for a moment, but still exchanged the wooden fish for him from the system space.

Shen Ji, carrying a wooden fish as big as his head, ran back to his room, stuffed it under the covers, and then ran downstairs.

Seeing him come downstairs, Zhao Tong smiled and waved at him, "Oh, nephew's awake?"

Shen Ji hummed in agreement. "Uncle Zhao, have you had dinner?"

Zhao Tong replied without any politeness, "Not yet."

Shen Ji sowed discord, saying, "My dad went out to eat without taking you. He really doesn't care about you at all. He really forgets the old for the new. Uncle Zhao, you're so pitiful."

Zhao Tong: "..."

Shen Ji continued, "Hmph, aren't you his best friend and childhood buddy? When he's heartbroken, he drinks with other guys, but not you. Aren't you sad?"

"That scumbag! He abandoned us, a widow and her child... ugh, he left us at home, trying to starve us to death! He's so wicked!"

Zhao Tong: "..."

He patted Shen Ji's head speechlessly, "Alright, just say you want to go."

Shen Ji crossed his arms. "I don't want to go."

"So what are you trying to do?" Zhao Tong said irritably. "Don't tell me you've been rambling on and on just to sow discord."

Shen Ji's eyes darted around, and he suddenly leaned closer to Zhao Tong, squinting as he said, "Uncle Zhao, aren't you investigating my mother's death? Logically speaking, this case shouldn't be in your hands, right?"

"Are there other reasons behind your investigation into my mother's death?"

Zhao Tong was stunned. Perhaps he was too surprised that a three-year-old child would say such a thing. He didn't even have time to control his expression and turned to look at Shen Ji in surprise.

Shen Ji chuckled, "Looks like I guessed right."

Zhao Tong narrowed his eyes. "Shen Jiyuan told you?"

Shen Ji snorted, "You think too highly of love-struck people."

Zhao Tong: "..."

He stared intently at Shen Ji for a long while, then suddenly smiled. "So, what are you trying to tell me?"

Shen Ji blinked. "I can let you check all the things my mother left me."

Zhao Tong frowned in surprise and asked, "You really have Su Qian's belongings?"

Shen Ji nodded.

Su Qian herself didn't leave anything behind. When the original owner was taken away, she only carried a small schoolbag, which contained some candy and toys, nothing special.

As for Su Qian's belongings, Shen Ji asked Ye Ye to get them from the Su family when he came to recognize his relatives.

He checked it himself and couldn't find anything wrong with it.

We might as well hand it over to Zhao Tong. Three heads are better than one, and maybe he can figure out some problems.

Zhao Tong jumped up from the sofa, picked Shen Ji up from the floor, and said, "Come on, take me to see him."

Shen Ji led Zhao Tong to his room, and handed him his small backpack and another small bag, saying, "It's all here."

These two small bags, one of them contained things related to Su Qian that he had Si Jiu get for him at the Su family's house.

This is the little bag that Yeye used to carry.

One was his own small bag, which was the bag the original owner was carrying when he was taken away.

Zhao Tong frowned and sat down on the small sofa in the room. Shen Ji pointed to the small bag that Si Jiu had been carrying and said, "This bag is full of Mom's things, and the other bag is mine."

Zhao Tong hummed in agreement. He took the slightly larger bag, opened it, took out gloves from his pocket, and took out everything inside.

A photograph, a watch, a cell phone, and a velvet box containing a diamond ring.

That's all.

Zhao Tong's eyes narrowed. "Have you touched these things before? Have you shown them to anyone else?"

Shen Ji nodded. "I've touched it, but I haven't shown it to anyone else." He paused, then added, "Old Deng hasn't seen it either."

Zhao Tong frowned, picked up the photo and looked at it. The person in the photo was a tall man, wearing a white T-shirt and jeans, with short hair. He looked quite handsome, but his overall demeanor was a bit...incongruous.

If you look closely, you can also see a faint tattoo on his arm.

Zhao Tong asked Shen Ji, "Do you know this person?"

Shen Ji shook his head; the original owner's few memories did not include this person.

However, he knew who this person was; it was his mother… who was also Su Qian’s ex-boyfriend, Lu Nian.

This is what Sijiu found for him, but Sijiu is just a high-level computer expert. Even if he's very skilled, he can't find anything that's not in the files.

Therefore, his knowledge was limited.

Lu Nian and Su Qian were high school classmates. After graduating from high school, Su Qian went to Jincheng University A, while Lu Nian did not get into university and has been drifting around outside ever since.

The two fell in love when Su Qian was in college. Their relationship was once the talk of the town in their high school class group, because no one expected that Su Qian, a good girl, would fall in love with a delinquent.

Sijiu couldn't find out why they broke up later.

But he couldn't tell Zhao Tong this information, because if he did, he would have to explain the source of the information, which would be even more impossible to explain.

Fortunately, this isn't important information, and Zhao Tong should be able to find it out quickly.

Zhao Tong patted his head, took out his phone and made a call, asking the team to send someone over.

While waiting for someone, Zhao Tong tried to turn on Su Qian's phone, but it was out of battery. He didn't dare to look for a charger and had to give up.

After checking other things, nothing unusual was found so far.

Zhao Tong thought for a moment, then opened Shen Ji's own small bag. There were even fewer things in his bag, except for a few lollipops and a few Ultraman and Sun Wukong toys.

They all look a bit old; one of Ultraman's thighs has been broken off.

After checking it over, Zhao Tong found nothing unusual, so he put it away, intending to have someone take it away for further examination later.

"Is that all?" he asked Shen Ji, looking up at him.

Shen Ji nodded; these were indeed all that Su Qian had left behind.
