Five o'clock.

It was also the time for me to plan on leaving. Before leaving, I checked to see if everything was in order. After making sure that everything was accurate, I prepared to leave.

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave. You should be able to use this bracelet at a critical moment."

Just as I was about to leave, the Grand Matriarch suddenly called me over. She took off the jade bracelet she was carrying and handed it over to me.

It could be seen that this jade bracelet was not very valuable. At the very least, it was not a high quality water seed. However, when the seemingly unremarkable jade bracelet appeared in his hand, it seemed to contain a slight trace of spiritual energy.

I took the bracelet and directly put it on my wrist, not bothering to be polite with the grandma.

Since the Grand Matriarch had said that she could save my life in times of danger, it was enough to see the importance of this bracelet.

Although this bracelet looked a little out of place after I put it on, it was still a treasure after all. Moreover, it wasn't my own item, so I didn't dare to be careless. I still felt that wearing it on my wrist was the safest.

"Alright, since we're already prepared, let's go! "Come back early after you're done!"

Seeing that it was getting late, I didn't want to delay any longer. I replied to the matriarch and left the room.

After leaving the house, I walked over to a few grandpas playing chess by the side of the road.

From the looks of it, these people must have been living here for a long time. They should have some understanding about that tragic night in the rain.

"Hello grandfathers, can I ask you something?"

After I walked up to them, I greeted them before speaking.

"Haha, what do young people want to know!?" Should I ask for directions? "You can be considered to be asking the right person if you're asking for directions. We are born and raised here, and there really isn't any place in Jiangxia Town that we don't know of."

"Right, there really is nothing that we don't know here."

These seniors were all very passionate. The moment I finished speaking, they surrounded me. Before I could say what I wanted to ask about, they introduced themselves.

"Great sir, I'm not here to ask for directions. I'm here to inquire about something else."

I hastily interrupted these seniors. They were all too enthusiastic. If this goes on, I'm afraid they will have to recount the entire history of Jiangxia Town to me.

Normally, I would love to hear the old man talk. After all, when people get old, there are less and less people who can talk with them.

But not today. I still have something to do and can't delay it.

If you miss this point, no one can guarantee that you will attract any monsters.

Although there was still some time until midnight, I still had to prepare some candles and things, so time was a bit tight.

"Oh!" It's not about asking for directions, young man.

When the old man heard that he wasn't here to ask for directions, he didn't tell me about the situation in Jiangxia Town and instead asked me this question.

"Oh!" I just want to ask you, where did the tragedy that happened on a rainy night happen a few years ago happen? "

I made my intentions clear, and stopped beating around the bush with these old people.

"What, what are you asking about?"

"Young man, what do you do?"

"This matter is not to be disregarded."

"Sigh, which girl died too miserably? According to the rumors, in the past few years, ghosts have been causing trouble everywhere. Humans cannot go there."

"..."

All of a sudden, these old men kept talking as if there was something they couldn't explain, and they didn't say anything for a long time.

Obviously, if these old men didn't say anything, then there must be something that made them afraid, and this thing could very well be a rumor of a ghost.

"To be honest, I'm a police officer from another city. My main purpose here is to see if there are any clues that can solve the crime and bring the culprit to justice. I'm here to inform the dead."

Seeing that the old people didn't want to tell me where I was, I had to pretend to be a cop and try to get something out of them.

As expected, this trick works. After hearing that I am a police officer, these elders rushed to tell me the answer.

And he told me to catch the killer and shoot him.

With regards to this, I could only agree to them one by one and then leave in a hurry. If I were to continue acting like this, I was afraid that I would expose my true identity.

Actually, the crime scene wasn't too far away from where I was staying. About 20 minutes away, it was in an alley. However, due to the rumours about the ghost for the past two years, there weren't many people living around this alley.

Although I have found out the exact location, I still need to make some preparations before going.

The first thing he had to do was to buy candles, burning paper, and other sacrificial items. As for the purpose of buying these things, it was obviously to comfort the ghost girl.

Sacrifice items are easy to sell. Many shops by the side of the road have them, so it didn't take me long to prepare all of them.

I looked at my watch. It was only an hour ago. Without a doubt, I came out too early. It wasn't even dark yet at this time.

For a moment, I had nowhere to go. There were still nearly six hours left before the crime site. It was obviously a little too early. Moreover, this is not a place where people have died before. Just listening to her would make us feel very uncomfortable. We really don't have the guts to stay here for a few hours.

This might just turn into trouble.

It seemed like he should first find an Internet Cafe and stay there! I randomly entered an internet cafe, opened a three-hour ticket, and prepared to play a game.

To be honest, I really don't know how to play any games. After a few rounds of playing in the Alliance, I actually haven't won a single game.

Fortunately, while I was playing the game, time passed quickly. Three hours passed in the blink of an eye, and I didn't even feel anything.

After leaving the Internet Cafe, I went straight to the location which the seniors had pointed out to me earlier. Originally, these seniors had told me that it would take twenty minutes. I had searched for over an hour just to find it.

It wasn't that the distance was too far, but this place was really too hard to find. This was originally an old city district, and many places were in the process of being renovated.

Furthermore, I can't ask anyone about it along the way. After all, to others, finding a haunted place in the middle of the night must be a mistake on my part.

However, even though it took a lot of effort, I managed to find the correct position in the end. The location where I was standing now was the same person from back then, the one who caused the tragedy.
