C69 (1/2)

”If that's the case, then Sister Zhou Qing is speaking the truth. There really is another ghost that wants to harm her.” I nodded my head. This argument wasn't without reason. It seemed that I needed to investigate this matter thoroughly. There might be a greater conspiracy behind it.

Zhou Qing's condition wasn't very serious, and after I helped her settle the discharge procedures, I sent her home. I don't have to worry this time

Liu Qi was going to do something bad to her. I could tell from the scene just now that Liu Qi was sincere towards Zhou Qing, and it was just a misunderstanding.

Since it wasn't done by Liu Qi, it would be much easier to settle this matter tonight. I promised Ben that we would go back, but after some thought, we decided to stay here for the night.

”Tonight, the two of you can live together. I'm next door, if there's anything, just call me.” After tormenting myself for the whole day, I went back to my bedroom to wash up before falling asleep.

I thought it might be a quiet night, but in the middle of the night, I was awakened by a scream. I quickly reached under the pillow for my axe, jumped out of bed, and ran out of the bedroom.

”What's wrong, what happened?!” The promise hurriedly opened the door, and Zhou Qing was so scared that her face turned pale. She hid behind me, looking at the window with a face full of fear.

”At the edge of the windowsill, I saw a shadow pass by,” he said hastily.

I walked to the window vigilantly and opened the curtain with my hand. I didn't find anything strange. The willow tree branches outside the window reflected the light on the floor.

I whispered, ”There's nothing out of the ordinary. Did the two of you get frightened today?”

I think that these two girls really are frightened quite a bit. Tonight is destined to be a night of sleep.

Zhou Qing said with a frightened face: ”I don't dare to sleep here anymore, it's too scary!”

I thought for a moment before replying, ”How about this? The two of you sleep in peace while I guard you outside.”

It seemed like I wouldn't have to sleep tonight. I went out of the bedroom and lay on the floor by the door with the quilt in my hand.

The next morning, the sky had just begun to brighten. I got up and yawned, stretched, stood up and knocked on the door.

Saying that, he opened the door and walked out. He yawned and said, ”Morning. You really slept at the door all night?”

I replied tiredly, ”What do you think? You two caused such a ruckus last night, making it difficult for me.”

I carried my dressing gown back to the bedroom and down the stairs. Zhou Qing's face was a little ugly. She walked into the kitchen and took out some bread and milk from the fridge. From the looks of it, she had lost her appetite.

”Are we still going to the shop today?” he whispered to me.

I whispered, ”You can stay here to accompany her today. I'll handle the rest.”

”I'm a bit tired, I'll go back to my room to rest for a while.” Zhou Qing ate two pieces of bread, then returned upstairs to rest.

”Call me if you need anything. Take this.” I took out the copper coin sword from my backpack and handed it over to Liu Ruyue, ”Take this. If you see ghosts, go and stab them. Any ghosts with shallow cultivation experience will be stabbed to death.”

After telling him all of this, there shouldn't be any problems anymore. Nothing would happen to him now. I walked out of the villa and returned to the store. After staying for a while, I called Tang Yufeng and had her analyze it for me.

Tang Yufeng softly said to me, ”I already know about this, but I can control the car to crash into people without anyone noticing. This is the first time I've heard of it.”

”I was wondering why that car started up on its own. And even if there was a ghost, why would it drive?” I sat down at the table and took a sip from my glass. ”Do you have any ghosts that can drive?”

Tang Yufeng smiled and said to me: ”Stop joking around. What the hell is so good at driving?”

I frowned and said, ”That's weird, but it wasn't that Liu Qi. Is there really another ghost?”

Tang Yufeng softly said, ”That might not be the case. Have you forgotten what the two Yin Masters said?”

I lit up the pipe, took a puff and said, ”What did they say?!”

Tang Yufeng said softly, ”Did you forget? The two of them said that some ghosts from the Underworld escaped. Perhaps the matter this time is related to the ghosts from the Underworld.”

I roughly understand what Tang Yufeng said, which means that the ghost may have come to collect its debt.
