Chapter 14: A Rainy Night

The sky is not beautiful, it rained in Seoul in the evening, but fortunately, the fifth jade is not far away, and it only takes about ten minutes to get in the car.

When passing by a video store, Fifth Jade suddenly remembered something and got off here. I remember that when the family was born, Taeyeon complained that he was looking for someone to sign an autograph and didn't bring an album. The last visit was in a hurry, and now that he has passed by, the fifth jade plans to make up for it.

Touching the album of Girls' Generation in her hand, the fifth jade thought to herself: Ha! This time, it's the signatures of nine people, isn't it too shabby to sign in one? Simply, I took nine and prepared for them to sign.

The boss who checked out didn't react, because the low tide of the youth was entirely because of the scandal and the current chaotic and unmanaged network communication, and it wasn't that there was anything bad about the album, so the boss often saw some fans buying multiple albums at a time, silently supporting their idols in this way.

In other words, this is the first time that Fifth Jade has bought an album. When I was in China, the Fifth Jade, who followed Master everywhere, certainly didn't have this kind of time. Moreover, China's chaotic record market, piracy is rampant, and if you want to buy a regular album, you have to go to individual video stores. However, it was also because of the rampant piracy that he had access to some songs of Korean stars. It's because you can often hear the songs in those small shops on the street, and most of them are the kind of hodgepodge CDs that have all kinds of songs. In this respect, piracy hurts the interests of record companies, but for a country as large as China, piracy has helped singers do a lot of publicity.

It's very close to Taeyeon's dormitory, and Fifth Jade isn't taking a taxi, just holding an umbrella and walking slowly.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and there are basically no pedestrians on the road. Fifth Jade likes rainy days very much, because often in rainy weather, the noise will disappear with the decrease of pedestrians, and the world is quiet, only the sound of rain is ticking, as if nature is confiding in people.

At this moment, the fifth jade enjoyed walking in the rain, looking complacent. Suddenly, the screeching sound of brakes sounded, and I saw a car "bang", knocking a woman who had rashly crossed the road into the air.

Fifth Jade twisted his head, looking at this sudden accident, his eyes were a little surprised, but he didn't have the panic that a normal person should have. The woman who was knocked into the air, the out-of-control car, was as clear as a slow-motion replay in the eyes of the fifth jade, and even the process of the splashed blood melting into the raindrops falling to the ground was clearly seen by him.

As the runaway car finally hit the guardrail on the side of the road, and the raindrops mixed with blood fell to the ground, the fifth jade turned around and stood in place, waiting for something.

Maybe the woman had some important reason to cross the road, maybe the car was slippery because of the rain. No matter what people do, they have their own reasons, so no matter what the outcome is, people can only bear it themselves.

Fifth Jade climbed over the guardrail, walked over to the woman, and shielded her from the rain with an umbrella. took out the phone, called the police, and then stood with his hands down indifferently. The woman saw the fifth jade standing next to her, with tears and expectation in her eyes, perhaps knowing her situation, the woman opened her mouth and wanted to say something to the fifth jade, but she couldn't make a sound, and the tears in her eyes were even worse.

The fifth jade could already see that a little spiritual light came out of the woman's body, that is, the woman's death was inevitable. didn't lie and comfort like ordinary people, because for the Onmyoji, death is not the end, so the fifth jade is still standing there plainly.

The woman in bright red clothes was lying on the ground, looking particularly desolate on a rainy night, and a man stood next to her, with a black shirt and black pants, quietly holding a black umbrella, like a messenger from the underworld waiting for the moment when the woman closed her eyes.

For the onmyoji, who is accustomed to the entanglement of life and death, the fifth jade's temperament is relatively soft, after all, he still came over and held an umbrella for the woman. If you change to another onmyoji, you will probably just turn around and leave indifferently. Anyway, there are no conditions for the formation of ghosts in this place, and the woman's spirit will soon dissipate.

Although the Onmyoji are mysterious, they are not omnipotent, they cannot fly to the sky and the earth like in mythology, nor can they bring the dead back to life with the kind of almost fantasy medical skills. On the contrary, the onmyoji, who can see the soul of a person before death, has mostly become rational and indifferent after experiencing too much powerlessness.

Although the fifth jade is talented, the time to officially become an onmyoji is not too long, so he is still standing there, waiting for the woman to say her last wish, and if she can, the fifth jade will try to help her complete it. It's a pity that the serious injury caused the woman to be the most embarrassed and didn't say anything.

Looking at the woman who slowly closed her eyes, Fifth Jade sighed slowly, put the umbrella in her hand on the ground, covered the woman's body, and turned around and walked into the rain.

When the driver of the car climbed out after a short coma, he only saw the umbrella left by the fifth jade.

If you insist on knowing what the woman wants to say before she dies, the fifth jade can actually be detected through the spirit generated after the woman's death. This spirit does not exist for a long time, and if there is no special environment, it will dissipate after a few minutes. However, isn't the meaning of the existence of the Onmyoji to cut off the entanglement between the dead and the living, so the fifth jade will always wait for the woman to say her last wish before she dies.

The fifth jade walked on the road, and he couldn't treat life and death rationally, he was in a little depressed, and laughed self-deprecatingly, thinking that maybe it would not be like this if it was the senior brothers. Of course, this is just the fifth jade's naïve idea, even if someone dies in front of his master, who is also a human being, everyone will have some emotions, this is the instinct of biology. It's just that the master and the senior brother know how to protect themselves better and can quickly adjust. Therefore, the Onmyoji has very few friends, and even if they are also Onmyoji, they rarely communicate, and most of the Onmyoji are lonely wanderers except for individual relatives. For those close to him, Onmyoji cherishes and loves him more than ordinary people.

The fifth jade's master didn't tell him about this matter, because these can't be taught by people, this kind of human nature is an important human feeling, not something that can be erased at will, so the fifth jade needs to find his own way to protect himself in the journey of life.

Ri Taeyeon's dormitory is very close, and Fifth Jade pats her face, puts her emotions aside for the time being, and calls Taeyeon.

“OPPA! How did you get there? ”

"What's wrong? Do you think so about me? Fifth Jade laughed.

The person on the other end of the phone unexpectedly admitted.

"yes, the kids are starving!"

The fifth jade was speechless for a while, and said, "It's okay for you to eat first, I don't care." ”

"No~~ I haven't eaten yet! Just wait for OPPA to do it! ”

“……”

Taeyeon, who hung up the phone, smiled hehehe, no matter how quiet a girl is, she will be naughty in front of people who are recognized by her!

PS: After looking at the first few chapters, it seems that the protagonist is a nervous second goods, so this chapter gives the fifth jade a little bit of his thoughts and troubles.
