Chapter 15: Belated Repentance

When the group arrived at the gate of the detention center, Su Qiqi released the black shadow.

"It's best not to swagger around the door, or you'll be caught when we come out." Lu Yao said.

"You're stupid to me?" Su Qiqi rolled his eyelids, "Master, I'll find a corner cat, you guys come out quickly." ”

"Let's go." Li Zhi gave Lu Yao a look, turned into a black cat and ran into the detention center.

"Wait for us." Lu Yao and Black Shadow followed.

"Where is she being held? It's so big here. Lu Yao looked around in confusion, she was a road idiot, and she was very insecure in a large area.

The black cat sniffed at the black shadow's legs, "Follow me, I can find her." ”

"Do you smell the same smell on them? It turns out that a cat's nose is more agile than a dog's nose? Lu Yao followed closely behind Li Zhe.

"If people get along with each other for a long time, the closer the relationship, the closer the smell will be on the body, which is unique." Li Zhe explained.

"Then you sniff me in a moment and see if there is..."

"You've been dead for so long that the smell is gone." Li Zhe looked back at her helplessly.

The first time she was looked at with pity by a cat, Lu Yao felt very embarrassed.

"Do you eat cat food?" She awkwardly changed the subject.

"What?" Li turned his head to look at the road.

"Don't you eat when you're cats?"

"We're just cats, not real cats." Li Zhe shook his head helplessly.

Lu Yao wanted to say something, but she heard Li Zhe shouting and stopped around the corner.

"It's the one up ahead." He walked over slowly.

"Xirong!" The black shadow pounced and got into the iron bar, Xirong was sleeping against the wall, and the whole person lost a lot of weight.

"Xirong, it's me." The black shadow crouched to the side and shouted.

"She can't hear her." Lu Yao said, "Here's this." ”

She tossed a candy-shaped object, "Take it in your mouth, she can see you before it melts, but it will only last a few minutes." ”

"Thank you, thank you." The shadow peeled back the thing and put it in its mouth.

"What's that?" Li Zhe stared at Lu Yao with a pair of cat's eyes and asked.

"Bitter pills." Lu Yao said: "The ghost woman gave it to me, she said that it was used to complain to the relatives of the unjust souls, and it is said that the taste is not very good." ”

The shadow woke up the woman, and the woman screamed in fright when she saw the shadow.

"Don't call it, it's me, Xirong!"

The woman's cry attracted the supervisors, Lu Yao and Hei Ying stood calmly to the side, only to see Li Zhi hurriedly rush into the shadows in the corner and become a ball, even his tail retracted.

Looking at the funny appearance of Li Zhe, who is usually serious, Lu Yao almost laughed.

The supervisor didn't look unusual, but he thought the prisoner had a nightmare, and left after a few words of reassurance.

"It's me, don't be afraid." Seeing that Xirong's emotions gradually calmed down, the black shadow whispered to comfort her.

"You... Are you, Songyang? ”

"It's me, it's me." The shadow trembled with excitement in his voice.

"I'm dreaming, right?" Xirong pinched his arm.

"Whether you think you're dreaming or not, I have to tell you, I'm sorry for you, I was a bastard when I was alive, I gambled and lost money, and I was still an alcoholic." The dark shadow kept repenting of himself.

"I don't know how to cherish you well, I always beat you, scold you, doubt you, and die innocently, this is all retribution!"

"How did you die? Who killed you? Xirong cried and asked, "They all said I killed you, but I don't remember anything!"

"No, it's not you, I don't blame you!" The black shadow touched her face, "I deserve it, you will be released soon, live well in the future, find a man who loves you, don't look for a beast like me." ”

Xirong looked at him and didn't speak, just silently shed tears.

"I want to compensate you so much, if I can survive, I will definitely repay you as a cow and a horse." The dark shadow muttered, "But it's too late, too late." ”

"I don't blame you." Xirong said: "I also hated you, I hated you, but I can't abandon you, I always hoped that you would wake up one day, but I didn't expect it to be in such a way." ”

"Live well and forget about me." The black shadow cried and said, "If there is a next life, I can be a human again, and I will treat you well." ”

"With his behavior during his lifetime, it will be difficult to be a man again in the next life." Li Zhe stood aside and said.

Lu Yao looked helplessly at the cat at her feet that ruined the parting atmosphere.

"Black Shadow, it's almost time, if you have anything to say, I only have one bitter pill."

The crying black shadow raised his head and nodded, "Xirong, there is a dark compartment at the bottom of my wardrobe, which is all my belongings, you take them out and pay them back, and keep the rest of the money for yourself, I don't have much savings, so I can't give you much." ”

Xirong didn't speak, nor did he nod.

You have to live well, definitely! The bitter pill in the black shadow's mouth has disappeared.

"Songyang, Songyang, where have you been?" Sijon couldn't see him anymore.

Lu Yao waved her hand, and the woman leaned against the wall and fell asleep again.

"Let's go, boy, after catching that traitor, you can go to reincarnation." Lu Yao said.

"I... Will I be able to be a human being in the next life?" The black shadow followed behind Lu Yao.

"Can't!" Li Zhi replied.

"I've guessed it!" The Shadow said disappointedly.

"But his longevity is not over, can he be reincarnated directly when he goes down?" Lu Yao asked.

"No, but he can be reformed at the bottom, maybe he can be a man again after two votes for the beast." Li Zhen said.

"Livestock ..... Beast Road? "The shadow was clearly terrified.

Out of the detention center, Su Qiqi, who was hiding in the corner, jumped out, "How is it?" Did it go well? ”

"yes, that's all that's been said." Lu Yao shrugged, "I'm going to go first, you guys take him back, call if you have something." After saying that, it turned into smoke and disappeared.

"Eldest sister, your book, don't you have an exam tomorrow?" Su Qiqi waved the book in his hand, but did not receive a response.

"You can give me the book, and I'll go to her house and deliver it to her." Li Zhen said.

"Well, it's not good, after all, it's a girl's room, so it's not a gentleman." Su Qiqi put away the book, "Let her go to me and get it herself." ”

"It's fine." Li Zhe said, "Let's go." ”

Su Qiqi put the black shadow into the gourd and left the police station with the cat that Li Zhe had turned into.

Walking on the street with a cat in the middle of the night, this scene is really a bit weird, Su Qiqi looked back at the empty street, and always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at them in the depths of the pitch dark.

But when he looked at Li Zhen beside him, he didn't have any reaction, presumably because he was suspicious.

Lu Yao returned home, climbed into bed, thinking about the scene that happened in the detention center, as the old saying goes, people are dying and their words are good, but is the shame of this already dead person really worthless?

I don't know if that woman will forget everything and live a good life after she is released from prison.

Closing her eyes, she sighed deeply, remembering that Li Zhe had said that she had been dead for too long and that the smell had dissipated, and that she could not trace her relatives according to the smell.

In fact, even if you find it, what can you do? Heaven and man are forever separated, people and ghosts have different paths, she is not like Fang Nuo, there is still a chance to be a human being.

During the lunch break, Lu Yao sat alone in the corner of the cafeteria to eat, and she found that her English books were missing during her morning self-study, but fortunately, the words were memorized so-so.

She can only wait for the weekend to go to West Street to retrieve it, she can't go out of body anymore these days, and she almost couldn't find her way home last night.

"Say, is that new Fang Nuo some kind of aloism?" Anna looked back at Lu Yao, who was eating alone.

"It's just an introvert, a new student, it's normal!" Squad leader Zhou Yinyin disagreed.

"In addition to answering questions in class, have you ever heard her say a word to other students?" Anna asked.

"Why not, the teacher sent me to communicate with her on the day she first came, and everyone is normal!" Zhou Yinyin swept over with a roll of eyes.

"Well, I still think she's weird." Anna put down her chopsticks.

"Fang Nuo had an accident before transferring to another school, injured his head, and almost died." Zhou Yinyin whispered: "Maybe that's why she's more withdrawn!" ”

"Wow? What accident? "Anna's gossip soul burns brightly.

"I don't know." Zhou Yinyin said: "I'm not a reporter, how can I know so much!" ”

"She's not going to be stupid, is she?" Anna winced her eyebrows.

"Cut, I think she's much smarter than you, I don't believe in the final exam, she must have better grades than you." Zhou Yinyin said with a smile.

"Eat your fried double yolk eggs! Hum! Anna picked up her plate and left unconvinced.

Lu Yao looked at the back of Anna leaving, she only heard part of their muttering, after all, the cafeteria was too big and noisy, but she knew that Anna kept looking back at her, and she must be gossiping about her again.

Lu Yao was about to retract her gaze, and suddenly found that she was not the only one staring at Anna's back, but also a girl sitting in front of her not far away, that girl she was familiar with, the one carrying a humanoid schoolbag.

At this moment, the female ghost on the girl's back was resting her head on her neck, and her long hair was on the girl's arm, and she probably felt the itch too, and kept scratching her arm with her hand.

"What kind of hatred is this, so tightly glued?" Lu Yao sighed helplessly, picked up the plate and stood up, let's not be nosy for now, I still have a lot of trouble.

When she got home from school, Lu Yao received a call from Su Qiqi.

"Today Li Zhe went to the police station to make a confession, and I also handed over the surveillance to the woman's brother, according to the autopsy report, the black shadow died at about 4 o'clock in the morning."

"But the surveillance Li Xirong left at 2:20 a.m. and never came back, at first because the cause of death of the deceased could not be found, the police suspected that it was because of the woman's beating that caused the man's shock,

But now there is another surveillance, which proves that the traitor of the Royal Cat Clan came out of the alley at about 4 o'clock and was injured, and it is estimated that it can help clear the woman's charges. ”

"That's great." Lu Yao said weakly.

"What? Aren't you happy? Su Qiqi asked.

"No, I just think it's finally over."

"Of course not, don't forget, aren't we still going to help Li Zhe catch that traitor?" Su Qiqi said.

"Why did you suddenly become so positive?" Lu Yao smiled.

"Idle is idle, I finally feel like a mage now, not a shroud who hides in a shroud shop and doesn't know anything."

"You're not trash, I never felt like was."

Hearing Lu Yao say this, Su Qiqi suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and he was speechless for a long time.

"By the way, your book has fallen here, when will you come to pick it up?"

"On weekends, I haven't been able to go out at night lately." Lu Yao said.

"What? Targeted by a ghost? Su Qiqi asked with concern.

"No, I've been out of my body too many times recently, and now I feel that the fit between my body and soul has become lower, probably because my yin qi has increased, which has affected Fang Nuo's body."

"Okay then, I'll wait for you over on the weekend, and I'll take you to eat something delicious." Su Qiqi said.

"Thank you, thank you for being willing to be friends with me." Lu Yao is very glad that she has such a partner.

"Thank you, I don't treat you as a friend, I just look at you as a poor ghost, I just sympathize with you."

Su Qiqi explained: "In the testament of our ancestors, it was said that to be a man..."

"Thanks to you, the dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth, hang up!" Lu Yao interrupted him and hung up the phone, why can't this guy increase his emotional intelligence?

"Hello?" Su Qiqi listened to the busy voice from the other side, "Hey! Stinky girl! Dare to hang up on me? ”

On the weekend, Lu Yao first went to the hospital to find the ghost wife, but ran to the 7th floor of the hospital and did not find the ghost wife.

"Why is the ghost woman gone?" Lu Yao met a female ghost with heavy makeup in the elevator.

"Who knows, the ghost woman has been absent lately, and I still have something to ask her!" The female ghost with heavy makeup took out a small mirror out of nowhere and took it in her hand to look at it.

"Where did you get the mirror? Can you shine on yourself? Lu Yao came up curiously.

The female ghost put away the mirror, "Of course you can, otherwise what am I doing here?" This was given to me by the gambler who chased me recently, and you want to get it yourself!" The heavy makeup female ghost walked out of the elevator with a flick of her hair.

"Oh, what's the big deal." Lu Yao followed her out of the elevator, "I can also take a look, but it's not me in the mirror." ”

Where did the ghost mother-in-law run away again? Why is it that the dragon always sees the beginning and does not see the end?

When he arrived at West Street, Su Qiqi was busy doing business, and he looked like he was busy before and after, as if the shroud shop was opening on the first day.

"You sit by yourself, I don't have time to entertain you right now, or you go to the backyard, I bought fruit." Su Qiqi stuck his head out of a pile of paper figures.

"Leave me alone, you're busy." Lu Yao waved his hand.

"Aren't you going to burn a Ferrari for your brother? This young age is the time of enthusiasm, and when you get there, you must be a girl in a racing car. Su Qiqi asked the uncle with stubble in front of him.

"My brother died in drag racing! What kind of Ferrari are you burning! The uncle said angrily.

"What about the girl? I have all kinds of ancient and modern Chinese and foreign here. ”

"My brother is gay!" The uncle replied angrily, "What kind of girl do you want!" ”

"Such a personality?" Su Qiqi sighed.

In the end, the uncle left with a few blonde paper figures, saying that his brother did not need to go back and burn it to his grandfather.

"It's really hard to do business these days, and it's hard to get a single business, and there are so many requirements."

Su Qiqi sent the guests away and came to the backyard.

"Did you tell Li Zhe that I would come today?" Lu Yao sat at the door and nibbled on a big duck pear.

"Anyway, he said he came over after working overtime in the morning, let's go to lunch together, I'll have a treat!"

"Why did you suddenly become so generous? Don't you dislike Li Zhe? Lu Yao tilted her head and asked.

"Didn't you also say that it's not good to make more friends? Besides, if you are a decent person, you should make more friends with a decent family! Su Qiqi said.

"Yes, you are all famous and decent, and I am a lonely ghost," Lu Yao suddenly felt a little lost.

"I didn't mean that." Su Qiqi hurriedly apologized, "You are not a lonely ghost in my eyes. ”

"And what am I?" Lu Yao blinked.

"It's a friend, it's my friend who stays in Qiqi!"

"Didn't you say a few days ago that you took pity on me and didn't treat me as a friend?" Lu Yao suddenly wanted to tease him.

"That's a joke." Su Qiqi sat beside her, "If I were so sympathetic, my ownerless lonely soul who ate and drank for nothing would have to be lined up in the department store every day!" ”

"You are good at everything, but you have a bad mouth, and you don't think and say in the same direction." Lu Yao viciously finished gnawing the pear in his mouth.

"What's that, you're not happy to be friends with me yet." Su Qiqi smirked.

"If you don't change your temper, it's no wonder that a girl likes you!"

"I don't need any girls to like me, men are ambitious, I want to be a mage with strong spells, how can I have time to worry about what children and daughters are long."

"It's quite impassioned, if you fall out of love one day, don't cry to me."

"Little Woman Thoughts." Su Qiqi was dismissive, "Only you women always have love in their heads." ”

"Machismo!" Lu Yao shook the finished pear core at Su Qiqi's skull, turned around and entered the house.

"Hey, you smash me, I'm telling the truth!"

"What are you arguing about?" Li Zhe walked in from the back door of the store in a suit.

"Noisy and unnutritious words to tease the boring people."

Lu Yao stood in the room with her hands on her chest.

"Where did you get this body?" Li Zhe also entered the house.

"Why are you both going into the house, how nice is the midday sun?" Su Qiqi sat at the door and turned his head and asked.

"Cats love the night."

"Ghosts are afraid of the sun!"

Li Zhe and Lu Yao sang and said in harmony.

"Hey, forget that neither of you is mortal." Su Qiqi turned his head.

"I'm not used to you being the way you look." Li Zhi turned his head and looked Lu Yao up and down.

"This is my friend's body, her soul is gone, so I temporarily live in her body for the convenience of travel."

"She's so much better looking than she used to be!" Su Qiqi deliberately said angrily.

"Really?" Lu Yao asked curiously: "By the way, I saw a female ghost in the hospital today who can look in the mirror." ”

"What kind of mirror is that? Did you know? ”

"It's just an ordinary paper mirror, just sprinkle some old scalper's urine and burn it." Su Qiqi said, "If you want to, I'll make one for you in a few days." ”

"I, I don't want it, I just ask." Lu Yao replied weakly.

"Yo, you really don't want to?" Su Qiqi began to tremble at this time.

"No, I'm hungry, let's go eat first." Lu Yao walked out of the house and didn't look back.

"Let's go, I'll close the shop, and you'll wait for me at the door." Su Qiqi stood up.

Li Zhe and Lu Yao stood at the corner of the street.

"Before, I saw three crows disappear out of thin air under the big tree in front of me, and that tree has a very strong suction power for souls, where is it the entrance to the soul gate?"

"Yes, but this entrance was closed 12 years ago, and as far as I know, there is more than one entrance and exit to the Soul Gate." Li Zhen said.

"It's off, and there's such a powerful energy!" Lu Yao sighed.

"Crow, it's the history of the Soul Gate, used to deliver news, since that civil war, the Spirit Gate has been greatly damaged, and many entrances have been closed, but I don't know which one they are open now."

"If you want to enter and exit the Soul Gate, you have to find their entrance first, right?" Lu Yao asked.

"Of course, but I guess as soon as you entered the door, you already entered the stomach of an unknown monster." Li Zhen said.

"Is there really nothing you can do with them?" Lu Yao asked.

"There will be a way, but not now, whether it is a human or a demon, there will always be weaknesses." Li Zhe said with a smile.

"I don't know if I'll be able to wait." Lu Yao muttered to herself, "When can I find Fang Nuo, it's a big deal that I won't take revenge, I just hope that Fang Nuo will come back safely." ”

"Don't get discouraged, and don't give up." Li Zhe said softly: "How do you know that you will not become the next savior?" ”

After listening to Li Zhe's words, his heart was very warm, and Lu Yao wanted to say something.

"I've packed up, let's go!" Su Qiqi suddenly shouted, he had locked the door of the store.

"Oh, got it." Lu Yao had no choice but to swallow her words back.

Lu Yao looked at the back of Li Zhe walking in front and thought to herself, Li Zhe's personality is really much cuter than Su Qiqi's freak!
