After picking up Yan Wu from the hardware store, Ma Lu drove to the little park where he first met Lao Hei.
The trio met up here.
There were even fewer people in the park than last time, hardly a few figures in sight.
As it turns out, this matter also had something to do with them. That night, Lao Hei secretly met with Ma Lu using Old Man Zheng's body.
As a result, Grandpa Ge, Old Man Zheng's good friend, happened to come across them, and they even spun tops together, enjoying a harmonious atmosphere.
Grandpa Ge emerged victorious and went home in high spirits, only to be told by his son that Old Man Zheng had passed away from a cerebral hemorrhage that very morning.
Grandpa Ge felt a chill run down his spine, nearly joining his old friend in the afterlife.
Afterward, the story of Old Man Zheng's returning spirit grew more and more far-fetched. Now even the ladies who come to dance in the square had dwindled by more than half.
