The Glorious Summoner - Chapter 41

41 The new landlord

There weren’t many people on the bus. There were only a few people standing on the bus. Some of the people on the bus were drowsy, while some were playing with their phones.

Inside the bus, only the sound of the television reverberating in the bus, broadcasting news and advertisements.

today, a murder case occurred in the underground cold storage of the Lingshi building. When our reporter arrived, the police had already set up a cordon outside the building. According to the police, a security guard in the underground cold storage of the building has been killed. After checking the surveillance cameras, the owner of the underground cold storage, Gao Qingshan, has committed a murder with a gun. The reason for the murder may be a labor dispute. The police have issued an arrest warrant. If any enthusiastic citizens find any useful clues, you can call the police. The police will provide a reward of 100000 Yuan.”

Xia Pingan, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, raised his head and glanced at the TV in front of him. The photo of a middle-aged man in his forties with gloomy eyes, thick eye bags, and a slightly bald face appeared on the TV. Under the photo, there was a reward of 100000 Yuan.

!!
The information about the National Order Committee and the Devil’s Eye made of the corpses in the underground cold storage did not appear in the news.

People who watched the news thought that this was a terrible criminal case.

Xia ping ‘an noticed that when the news was broadcasted, most of the people in the car only raised their heads to look at the beautiful female reporter on the TV screen. No one paid much attention to her.

Perhaps to ordinary people, this was the best.

If the bloody scene in the underground cold storage appeared on TV, most people would not be able to sleep well at night, and no one would dare to go out at night.

They arrived at the bus stop. Xia ping ‘an’s rented apartment was not far away. Xia ping’ an got off the bus.

There was a fresh seafood supermarket just outside. Xia Pingan, who got off the car, went straight into the supermarket and bought some vegetables.

Ten minutes later, Xia Pingan walked out of the fresh food supermarket. The shopping bag in his hand was already filled with the things he had bought. There were tendons, sea cucumbers, mushrooms, abalone, shark’s fins, chicken, shrimp, and some fresh vegetables.

These ingredients cost more than 300 yuan.

Xia ping ‘an, who was carrying her things, walked directly towards the district she had rented. After entering the door of the unit, the security guard who was watching TV in the reception room downstairs glanced at Xia ping’ an and continued watching TV.

Everything in the corridor was the same as before. Xia Pingan arrived at the door of the top floor. Just as he was about to take out his key, he realized that the lock outside the safety door of his rented room had been changed.

The previous lock was no longer there. The new lock was shining, but Xia Pingan’s key could no longer be inserted.

F * ck!

Uncle Hong wouldn’t change the lock. If he wanted to change the lock, he would have told her. This was the new landlord’s job.

On the safety door, there was a small card stuck with transparent tape. On the small card, there was a line of words-the new landlord’s phone number is 138xxxxxxxxxxx. Tenants of the house should contact the new landlord to get the key.

Xia Pingan hung the shopping bags in her hands on the railing of the stairs. She took out her phone and called the new landlord.

The call went through, but there was no line. However, after more than ten seconds, a middle-aged woman’s voice sounded on the phone. Hello, Who are you? ”

Hello, I’m a tenant of uncle Hong’s house. You changed the lock, so I can’t get in now. Can you come over and open the lock? ”

Oh, so you’re that Xia Pingan, Yingluo. the woman on the phone called out Xia Pingan’s name. Her tone was a little vulgar and rude.

“Yes, I’m Xia ping ‘an!”

“The house you’re renting now belongs to my family. I’ll be the landlord from now on!” The middle-aged woman’s voice was full of pride, and it was like a machine gun. She didn’t give Xia Pingan a chance to speak at all. I’ve changed the door lock. From this month onwards, the rent will increase to 3800 Yuan a month. Your previous contract will not be counted, and the contract will have to be re-signed. If you don’t want to stay, you can move out, Wanwan.

Xia ping ‘an frowned slightly. The same house in this neighborhood only cost about 3200 to 3300 Yuan a month. That was because uncle Hong was unwilling to raise the rent, and Xia ping’ an took the initiative to raise the rent a few times.

Looking at the new door lock and listening to the woman’s voice on the phone, Xia Pingan suppressed the discomfort in his heart, but still said calmly, ” I haven’t looked at the new contract yet. I’ll take a look first. Now, I’m going home. Can you send me the keys first? ”

“Alright, just you wait!” The woman hung up the phone rudely.

Xia Pingan could only wait at the door of the house.

Xia Pingan didn’t need a key to unlock the door. However, it would be troublesome to unlock it now, so he waited at the door for the time being.

Twenty minutes later, footsteps could be heard from downstairs. Xia Ning had returned first.

Xia Ning was wearing a yellow Cartoon Hat, a pair of jeans, a white shirt, and a knitted jacket. She was also carrying a backpack. She looked young, beautiful, and energetic.

“Brother, why are you at the door? did you lose your key?” Xia Ning asked.

uncle Hong is going back to the countryside to enjoy his retirement. He sold the house and changed the lock! Xia Pingan said helplessly.

ah, why didn’t the new landlord inform us when he changed the lock? why didn’t he wait until we were here to change it? we weren’t at home, so how could they have entered? what if we lost our things? ” Xia Ning was furious when she saw the note on the door.

Just from this incident alone, Xia Ning could feel that the new landlord was being disrespectful to her. On the light hand, this was just a simple case of the new landlord changing the lock, but on the serious side, it was a case of trespassing on private property. Xia Pingan and uncle Hong’s rental contract was still in place, and it was still within the rental period of the contract.

The two siblings could only continue to wait at the door. Xia Ning asked Xia Pingan about his new job.

the salary is alright, but I may not be able to go home every weekend in the future, Yingluo.

Xia Pingan did not tell Xia Ning that he was already a Summoner. He felt that this news would have a huge impact on Xia Ning. Moreover, the summoners of the order Committee, after being exaggerated by those movies and television dramas, gave people the impression that they were on the verge of life and death every day, dealing with all kinds of monsters and monsters-although that was the truth, it was even more exaggerated and dangerous than those in movies and television dramas.

Xia Pingan didn’t want Xia Ning to worry too much, so he only said it in a light tone, making Xia Ning think that he was only using his long-distance vision to serve the order Committee.

The siblings waited at the door for another ten minutes before the sky gradually darkened.

Xia Pingan called the new landlord again, and it was still the same woman who picked up the phone.

what’s the rush? I’ll come over after dinner, ” the woman said and hung up the phone.

let’s go, let’s go out for dinner tonight. We’ll come back after dinner, ” Xia Pingan smiled apologetically at Xia Ning.

but I want to eat the fragrant pot soup you make. I haven’t had it in a long time! Xia Ning looked at the ingredients that Xia Pingan had bought and couldn’t help but swallow her saliva. brother, the soup you make is the best. No one can compare to Yingluo.

The fragrant pot soup that Xia ping ‘an made according to Xia Ning was Xia ping’ an’s ‘Buddha Jumps Over the Wall’. However, there was no’ Buddha Jumps Over the Wall ‘in this world, only the Xia family’s’ fragrant pot soup ‘that Xia Ning mentioned.

anyway, it’s not ready today. It’ll take one or two days to soak in water. I don’t know when the new landlord will come. Let’s not wait here like idiots. Let’s fill our stomachs first. We can also eat delicious food outside!

“Alright then!” Xia Ning laughed again and hugged Xia Pingan’s arm. take it as a celebration for you getting a new job and becoming a civil servant, ran ran.

Xia Ning, who was hugging Xia Pingan’s arm, felt something hard under Xia Pingan’s clothes. She asked, ” brother, what are you carrying on you? it’s hard.

It was the gun that Xia Pingan had brought with him!

The entire city was in danger. Since she could bring a gun back, Xia Pingan did the same.

In addition to the gun, he had also brought the reporter’s certificate that he and an Qing had brought with them when they went out today. He had not put it back in the office.

that’s your brother’s work supplies. It belongs to the public order Committee. It’s confidential. Let’s go, ran ran. Xia Pingan smiled and did not say much. He hung the ingredients at the door and brought Xia Ning downstairs.

Xia Ning didn’t ask further.

The two of them found a good restaurant outside the community and had dinner to celebrate Xia Pingan’s new job.

After dinner, it was already past eight o ‘clock in the evening. The two of them then slowly returned to the neighborhood.

Just as she returned to the entrance of the community, Xia Pingan’s phone rang. She looked at the phone number and saw that it was the new landlord.

Xia Pingan picked up the phone.

“Where are you? where did you go? we’re here. Where did you go?” The woman was being aggressive on the phone.

“I’m in the neighborhood downstairs. I’m coming up now, Yingluo.”

Hmph, hurry up. We still have to go back after signing the contract and paying the money. Don’t waste our time. the woman hung up again.

When Xia ping ‘an and Xia Ning returned to the door, they realized that the door was already open. The lights in the house were on, and the door was wide open.

The ingredients that Xia Pingan had hung outside the door earlier had also been rummaged through. The things that were originally in the bag had now become a mess.

Xia Ning bit her lip and glanced at Xia ping ‘an. She silently took the bag of ingredients that Xia ping’ an had bought and went into the house.

There were two people watching TV in the room, a man and a woman. They looked like a married couple.

They were a fat middle-aged woman with heavy makeup and a sharp and shrewish look. There was also a middle-aged man in his forties with a buzz cut. The burly middle-aged man was wearing a t-shirt and half of his exposed arm was covered with colorful tattoos.

The man leaned back on the sofa and smoked a cigarette like a mountain Eagle. The ashes flickered and fell to the living room floor.

The originally clean house was now covered in messy footprints.

A lot of things in the house seemed to have been tampered with. The few paintings that Xia Ning had hung on the living room wall had disappeared, leaving an empty space on the wall.

Xia Ning’s expression changed when she saw that her drawing was gone. She placed the ingredients in the kitchen and went to the living room. where’s my drawing? ”

The middle-aged woman glanced at Xia Ning and said sarcastically, ” young lady, don’t you know how to talk? what painting? all the furniture in this house belongs to our family and we’ve already bought them. You’re just renting the house. Where’s your stuff? ”

that painting is my Yingluo. Xia Ning bit her lip.

The paintings hanging in the room were all painted by Xia Ning. Every painting contained her and Xia Pingan’s stories and memories. They were the most precious memories of the siblings.

Xia Pingan scanned the room and realized that even the things in the brother and sister’s bedroom had been rummaged through. He came to the living room with a cold face and looked at the two new landlords. that painting was drawn by my sister herself. It doesn’t belong to the landlords. Return the painting. We’re not renting it anymore. We’re moving out!

“You must be Xia ping ‘an!” That woman glanced at Xia Pingan and immediately started to act shamelessly, ” what painting? I didn’t see Yingluo.

At this moment, Xia Ning suddenly thought of something. Her expression changed and she quickly opened a drawer in the living room. The things in the drawer were already a little messy. Xia Ning took out the box that the siblings kept their money in.

When he opened the box, it was empty. All the money that he had placed in the box before had disappeared.

brother, our money is missing, Yingluo. Xia Ning was so aggrieved that she almost cried. The money in the bag was their living expenses, as well as the summer vacation expenses that Xia Pingan had left for Xia Ning. Her pocket money came to a total of about 27000 Yuan.
