316 The Secret of the Haunted House
Then there was only one possibility. Shan Yue had sneaked out herself.
Zhou Xuan looked back at the militia in the courtyard. Even he couldn’t get out of here without being discovered. How did Shan Yue do it?
Like Las Vegas, Zhou Xuan was once again curious about Shan Yue’s identity.
However, Zhou Xuan could not think too much at this moment. He had to cover for Shan Yue and not let Pang Shuo discover that she had disappeared. Otherwise, he might think that his matter had been exposed and form a counterattack.
Zhou Xuan turned to the two bodyguards at the door and said, “No matter who comes to this room to call President Shan, use the excuse that President Shan is not feeling well and is resting in the room. You must not let the people of Pang Village enter the room.”
“We understand, President Zhou.”
At this moment, Shan Yue had already quietly arrived near the haunted house. As soon as she arrived, she made a breakthrough. There were actually people watching the haunted house that everyone in the village avoided.
It was obvious that this was not to prevent anyone from accidentally entering this place, but to observe who was approaching.
From afar, there was actually someone coming out of the haunted house. He looked relaxed and natural, not afraid of the haunted house at all.
As she groped her way over, just as Shan Yue thought that the final clue was in the haunted house, she realized that there was actually a man-made path behind the haunted house. This meant that there was another world not far away.
Shan Yue, who was alone, did not have a trace of timidity on her face. Instead, she had more courage to advance. After advancing for a while again, behind a tall reed herd, Shan Yue finally found decisive evidence of this entire matter.
In the middle of a very dilapidated fence, there was an inconspicuous wooden door. There were many people guarding it with weapons in their hands. Behind the wooden door was a secret that no one expected. It was also the reason why Shan Yue and the other two came here.
Shan Yue specially went to the back. As no one usually approached here, the guards were very loose. This gave Shan Yue an opportunity to take advantage of. She chose a place that no one was paying attention to and easily entered.
As soon as she entered, she looked up and saw two bright words: Pang Residence.
Different from the outside, this place looked very desolate and murderous from the outside. It emitted a desolate feeling that made people fear it. However, once they entered, an indescribable splendor appeared in front of them.
It was a small villa with various displays. It was luxurious and ostentatious, elegant and noble.
She casually entered a room. The black marble floor was as bright as a mirror. As far as the eye could see, there were gorgeous crystal and diamond chandeliers, tables and chairs made of pure imported wood, and exquisitely carved bookshelves. The decorations in the entire room could no longer be described as luxurious. They were even much more luxurious than the decorations in Shan Yue’s office.
Shan Yue looked at everything in front of her and instantly understood what was going on.
Pang Shuo was the owner of this Pang residence. The reason why his wife and children were not at home yesterday was not because they had returned to their parents’ house at all, but because his family usually lived here. However, because of their sudden visit, in order not to arouse suspicion, he asked his family to hurry back the next day.
As the village chief of Pang Village and the president of the Education Association, Pang Shuo was indeed good to the villagers to win their hearts and make everyone in the village stand on his side to protect him.
The reason why he had the ability to help everyone in the village was because he had privately used the money allocated by charity and put most of it in his pocket. Of course, the three million he had said he had received was fake. The money that had been embezzled over the years had been used in this villa.
This kind of person who relied on the kindness of the villagers to cover for himself was really evil, like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Shan Yue casually took a few pieces of evidence and did not stay long. She returned to Pang Village while it was dark.
Coincidentally, when Shan Yue returned, everyone was about to eat. When Pang Shuo saw Shan Yue return from outside, his eyes could not help but flash with surprise. He said tentatively, “President Shan, why did you come back from outside? Did you go out just now?”
