Body 114 Headless Geist
"Where the hell have you been these two days?"
An Ning had been discharged from the hospital because she was in good health, and I went to meet her, but she caught her and asked her about it.
I had to smile embarrassedly, scratch my cheek, and didn't tell her about my ill body, just a random reason.
"Do you know how boring I was in the hospital? Anze, that guy doesn't talk at all, he reads there with a book in his hand every day, and I see him, twenty-two hours a day, twenty-two hours a day. β
An Ning's mouth was like a machine gun, frantically complaining to me about everything she had experienced in the past two days of my absence.
I pursed my lips, knowing that she was an idle master, and I had seen the current scene many times before, so I was used to it.
Every time she is depressed, she complains wildly, and I am the one who wants to accept all her "resentment".
Well, I listened to it with a lot of emotion, and I wasn't disgusted, and I heard her constantly muttering this and complaining about that, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Sure enough, he is a madman, he only sleeps for a while every day, no wonder there are dark circles under his eyes."
I talked to her without saying a word, when I heard her suddenly lose her voice. I interjected and asked, "Grandpa An, what about An Xu?" How's it going? β
An Ning was even more silent, her head lowered, and I saw her expression, and realized for the first time that she knew about them.
Who knows, she screamed fiercely and shook her hands angrily!
"I don't know! Anze said that he was still resting in the hospital and had a slight injury, but I guess he was lying to me. β
An Ning hung her shoulders weakly, lowered her eyes, and asked me softly, "Xiaohua, do you know how Grandpa is doing?" β
My heart trembled, but I still forced my face not to change, not wanting her to see some signs.
"They're fine, it's estimated that they will be discharged in two days, don't worry." I smiled and soothed Anning, put my arm around her, and said affectionately.
After An Ning heard my words, the gloom on her face finally dissipated, showed a reassuring smile, and nodded.
However, when I saw her appearance, I felt guilty.
I hope she understands my mind and doesn't want her to worry too much, so that's all I can say......
Yang Yi was also going to come to pick up An Ning and discharge from the hospital, but when I heard that he was arrested by An Ze to discuss countermeasures to save An Yu and Situ Jing, I couldn't help but recall what An Ze said to me at that time.
I glanced at An Ning sideways, plucked up my courage, grabbed her hand, and said, "An Ning, An Yu and Situ Jing's souls were not successfully rescued, Grandpa An and they will still go." β
"This time, let's not follow along."
Originally, I was ready for An Ning to refute, but what I didn't expect was that An Ning nodded very obediently and said bitterly: "What Xiaohua said is true." β
"My strength is not my turn to do that."
Just when I thought that her words would become more and more muffled, she suddenly raised her head, and her eyes burst with fighting spirit: "So, I have to work harder and strive to improve my ability, so that I can go out with my grandfather to exorcise ghosts in the future!" β
"You don't have to make Anze work so hard."
I happened to receive a message from Yang Yi, who said that a small table had been booked in a private restaurant, and in order to celebrate Anning's discharge, let us go.
Hearing the high-spirited words in my ears and seeing that An Ning was not defeated by difficulties, I happily grabbed her hand and walked towards my destination.
As he walked, he said, "I believe in you!" But before that, we have to satisfy our stomachs first, don't you say? β
I handed her the phone and asked her to read the message sent by Yang Yi, and this foodie Xiao Nizi finally smiled.
"By the way, you haven't told me where you went for the two days you lost contact? Say it! β
I looked at her with a smile, pretending to think about it, and noticing her curiosity, I whetted her appetite, and then approached her, and said with a wicked smileβ
"Secret, don't tell you!"
β¦β¦
When we arrived at the private restaurant, Yang Yi had already ordered a table of dishes and looked at us with a smile.
"Two distinguished ladies, it's really long overdue."
I heard him speak in a crepe-like manner, like a gentleman, and made me laugh.
"Okay, don't be Wenqing, thank you for this meal."
I thanked him, pulled down my chair slightly, picked up the drink in front of me, and just put it to my lips when my hand stopped.
Since the table was located next to the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, we could see the scenery outside during the meal, so my eyes were drawn to a terrifying object not far away.
A man in a migrant worker's uniform walked there, his blue overalls stained with lime and mud and water, and long plastic boots on his feet.
This outfit is very ordinary, and I don't pay attention to what he wears, but who he is!
I could tell that he was a ghost, and the soul was still white and translucent.
To say why I say he is "horrible".
Because he has no head!
I'll it! Whoever sees a walking person on the road, without a head, will be scared to death!
I almost dropped the glass in my hand on the floor, but my hand shook violently, and a few drops of the drink spilled on my clothes, leaving traces that were not washable.
But I didn't have the heart to pay attention.
An Ning noticed me, obviously not knowing that I saw the headless wandering spirit walking on the road, smiled and patted me, and teased: "Look at you excited, Xiaohua, the drink is spilled on your clothes!" β
It took me a long time to come to my senses, I rubbed my eyes vigorously, and when I opened them again, the headless geist in overalls was still there.
He was standing at one end of a zebra crossing, and behind him, there was exactly a construction site.
I immediately recognized what kind of large commercial plaza was going to be built here, and I heard that the company was asking to catch up with the schedule, so I kept asking these workers to work overtime.
As a result, my parents came home from the evening shift and mentioned that in the middle of the night, there was a very loud piling sound on the construction site.
"Xiaohua? Xiaohua! β
An Ning shook me before I turned my head and gave her a straight look.
"What's wrong with you, you can't keep your soul, eat quickly, you've been watching the scenery since just now, can't you watch it while eating?"
Yang Yi raised his glass to clink glasses with us, and I held the wine glass absentmindedly.
"Boom-" The glasses collided with a crisp sound.
I know that it must be very unsightly to tell them about this headless spirit now, it is obviously a small celebratory feast, and it must be very unsightly to say this.
I could only suppress the doubts and fears in my heart, look back, and talk to them with a smile.
During this period, I stopped looking out, for fear that the poor headless man was still there, and my rare good mood would be ruined again.
When the meal was about to end, Yang Yi drank the red wine in the glass and asked me meaningfully, "Ronghua, did you see something strange?" Although you came back to your senses just now, I can still see that you are hiding something in your heart. β
An Ning was full, listened to Yang Yi's words, and turned his gaze to me.
When I saw them like this, I knew that now even if I told the ghosts I saw, they would not blame them.
"I saw a headless soul on the sidewalk opposite."
"Huh?"
An Ning's eyes widened in surprise, even Yang Yi was the same.
"You're not mistaken, are you? A ghost without a head? No, I haven't seen a soul with arms or legs yet. β
Yang Yi also felt very strange, nodded again and again, and agreed with what An Ning said.
I hurriedly said, "No, absolutely not mistaken! β
Yang Yi looked out the window, looked around, and smiled at me awkwardly: "Where is it?" β
"Right there!"
I pointed again to the location of the crosswalk traffic light, but my hand froze in mid-air.
There are no headless wanderers there, crowded with busy pedestrians and vehicles.
And on that construction site, there were still bursts of piling sounds, and the sound was endless.
"Xiaohua must be dazzled, and we have eaten well."
An Ning packed her small bag, got up and said to me: "Let's go back to school today, we have missed so many classes, and we have to go to the counselor to talk about it, and open a fake order or something." β
My parents said that they had already helped me talk to the counselor, but An Ning didn't, and I had to accompany her to the office once.
Before leaving, I glanced at the place where the headless spirit was standing, and after making sure it was empty, I turned around and prepared to leave.
Very good eyesight allowed me to see him through the half-opened subway door, beside a pile of rubble and stones!
Not a delusion! I read that right!
Before I could call out to Yang Yi, who had walked away, An Ning pulled me and said urgently: "Let's go, go back to school, accompany me to open a fake order, it seems that there is a class in the afternoon, if we can catch up, we will go to it." β
I was about to speak, but she stopped me.
Seeing that I was getting farther and farther away from the construction site, my desire to blurt out became less and less.
I've come so far, it's useless to talk about it.
However, I still care.
Why, he has no head? It stands to reason that no matter how much a person's body is broken and missing, the soul does not become fragmented as a result.
To put it mildly, the body is the container of the soul, the soul is a whole, and even if the body ages to death, the soul still lasts forever.
A spirit-less spirit, to say that I don't care, must be fake.
However, whether it was An Ning or Yang Yi, they didn't believe what I said.
I frowned, it seems that it is better to ask the pervert about this matter.
Worker's uniform, a soul without a head......
And the way he stood in front of the ruins, bent over as if looking for something, made me very concerned.
However, as soon as I thought of the pervert's advice, I shook my head and sighed inwardly.
Forget it, forget it, don't bother yourself if you don't have trouble coming to the door.
