"Li Jingming, you are not under its control now. Just say anything and I'll help you. Xiao Xia said solemnly.

Li Jingming looked at them in confusion, not quite convinced.

"This is the archmage I hired, the one he let you out of for a while. But this ghost's mana is profound, we can only suppress it for a while, if you don't say it now, I can't help you. You say it, and we can find something to restrain it. Are you willing to be bullied by it like this and hurt your whole family? ”

He's the archmage she's hired? She's really good at breaking down, no wonder she has to charge for talking to a lawyer. Her ability is so poor, she can even weave so round. Ruan Zhan thought to himself.

But Li Jingming still didn't dare to believe it easily.

"Didn't you ask me to help you last time?" Xiao Xia was anxious, "If you don't cheer yourself up, no one can help you." Can you yourself be indifferent, you don't even want to think about your son? It was going to hurt your son the other day! ”

This sentence stimulated Li Jingming. He looked up suddenly, startling Xiao Xia, thinking that he was being controlled by a ghost again.

"Who are you?" Li Jingming asked, his voice so low that he almost didn't hear it.

"Who am I? I am your lawyer, Yue Xiaoxia, and I have introduced myself to you several times. ”

"Give me your hand."

"What for?" Xiao Xia subconsciously hid her hands behind her back. Good fellow, she's not going to be fooled! The last time he scratched the ghost's handprints, it hurt her for three days, and there are still pale cyan marks.

"It's going to turn into anyone, anything. It could be you, or this table, this chair, or even this mage! I've got to make sure you're not the one who tricked me. Li Jingming whispered as if he was afraid of being heard, and his demeanor made Xiao Xia's scalp tingle. She turned her head to look at Ruan Zhan, and after receiving his silent encouragement, she hesitantly stretched out her hand to Li Jingming.

Li Jingming grabbed her hand suddenly, and the cold and stiff touch made Xiao Xia pull back his hand and almost scream. Fortunately, Ruan Zhan's hands held her shoulders, so she didn't pass out on the spot.

"You can confirm it, you!"

"You're real." Li Jingming let go of Xiao Xia, and tears suddenly welled up, "You believe me? ”

"Of course I believe it, because it wants to harm me."

"But it never left, how can it hurt you!"

"Will there be another one? Or—" Xiao Xia looked at Ruan Zhan.

Ruan Zhan shook his head, "I'll explain this to you later, there's not much time, I suggest listening to what your client has to say." ”

"That's right, you say it first. You have to explain in detail how you provoked it, how it hurt you, what the case was, why it hurt you, and all these causes and consequences. "They don't have time to induce Li Jingming now, so they have to get straight to the point.

"Tell me first, how is my son?"

"If you ask him about his body, all I can say is recovering, not fully awake yet. The other day, though, it took control of your son's body before the will to cut off a nurse's head. ”

Xiao Xia's words made Li Jingming stunned, and he glared at Xiao Xia, as if he couldn't believe it.

"Sure enough! It didn't lie to me, it not only made me do evil, but it also made my whole family die, not a single one left! Really! Really! ”

"Calm down, or you won't stand a chance!" Ruan Zhan stopped Li Jingming, who was gradually agitated.

"That's right!" Xiao Xia made persistent efforts, "Since you know that it is going to harm you completely, won't you resist?" Not for anyone else, but also for your son, who is only fifteen years old and has a great future to come. No one knows which cloud in the sky will rain, and maybe a miracle will happen to your son. Help yourself, that is, help him! ”

Xiao Xia's words made a glimmer of hope rise in Li Jingming's heart, although it was weak, but the unconditional love of his parents for his children still made his already desperate heart muster up the courage, "Yes, I just do everything I can, and I can't let it hurt Shulun anymore." For the first time since the incident, he was so convinced. Then he began to recall the hellish things that had happened in the past few months.

"It starts with the fact that I have a position in this family. I was originally a rural teacher in a poor rural area in the northwest of China, and later met my wife at an outstanding teacher commendation conference. At that time, I was the representative of rural teachers, and she was one of the outstanding teachers of this year. You can't understand the environment of rural teachers, I can only say that if I am allowed to move to the city, I can do anything, and that participation may be the only opportunity I can take my turn. I'm a person with no talent and no appearance, let alone background, and although my wife is also very average, her personality is a little more pungent and domineering, and she doesn't have much manly popularity, but after all, she is from a big city, and she is also an excellent teacher, anyway, I can't imagine how she likes me, in short, I am flattered. Soon after, I became their inverted son-in-law, so that I not only stayed in the city as I wished, but also successfully found this very good job in the city No. 3 Middle School because of my parents-in-law's deep connections in the Municipal Education Bureau. All of this seems to outsiders to say that I am an ancestor who has accumulated virtue and made great luck, but no one knows that in fact, their family looks down on me, but they can't resist my wife's strong personality to reluctantly accept me. She was nice to me at first, but soon after she started to be like her family.

In fact, sometimes I think that maybe my parents-in-law have high expectations for my wife, she is a very capable person, but she chose me by magic, and since then I have been mediocre. Maybe she regretted it, but Shulun was already born, and she was so strong that she didn't want to admit her mistakes and divorced me. In the final analysis, it was my presence that disappointed the whole family, and that formed that oppressive family atmosphere. ”

Li Jingming paused and continued: "I'm embarrassed to tell others, but now there is nothing I can't say." I'm sure you've heard of domestic violence, don't think that women are the only victims, at least in my family, I'm the one who suffers. Don't say that my wife will twist, pinch, kick and beat when she disagrees, and it is common to speak coldly, shout and drink, and verbally attack those cold violence. Don't think that the teacher's home is sacred, teachers are just a profession, they may do a good job, but character is not necessarily worthy of respect. And I'm a coward, not too much like a man, and I feel that I am not worthy of her, inferior, so she has been swallowing her anger for more than ten or twenty years, and she has become even more serious. Not only did I have to listen to her for everything, but I didn't even have any financial freedom. We work in the same school, and she collects the monthly salary on her behalf, and she is the one who changes the salary card to it, and I don't even know the password. Not to mention sending money to my mother in the countryside, even if you write a letter, you have to ask her for stamp money.

I'm sorry for my mother, she was young and widowed, and she finally pulled me up, but I, a white-eyed wolf, came to the city for comfort, and left her alone in the countryside, and couldn't afford to take her to live even for a day. Once, because she missed me too much, she brought a large bag of souvenirs to see me, but she was squeezed by my father-in-law's family and went back overnight. She kept crying when she was at the station, and she gave me 200 yuan before leaving, do you know how long it will take her to save? But the result? My wife scavenged the money and bought my mother-in-law a silk shirt! Can you imagine it? This is the home of teachers, the home of the sacred people's teachers! ”
