CH 84

“Even if she hears a few words, she can’t do anything. She can’t threaten you.”

“Although Wang Ran and I were adopted, the families that adopted us also had conflicts, and it led to our unfortunate childhoods so that once someone was nice to us, we would fall head over heels. Since Sun Ting was a good actress who managed to trick us into trusting her, we easily talked about everything. But all of that changed after we arrived in Huacheng. Sun Ting was like having a new face. She blackmailed us, asked me to be her stand-in, and asked Wang Ran to make money for her to spend.” Gao Ying laughed at herself and said, “Thinking about it now, we were so stupid back then!”

“What threat did Sun Ting did to Wang Ran?”

“Wang Ran has a habit of stealing things. I tried my best to help her correct it, but all failed. She couldn’t control herself at all.”

“It was a mental illness. Why don’t you see a psychiatrist?”

“Wang Ran’s adoptive parents almost raised her in a free-range manner. She has no education, and it’s already good to be able to support herself. How can there be extra money to see a psychiatrist.”

“Then what happened to Wang Ran? Does Sun Ting know about it?”

“Before I died, I thought Wang Ran’s death was pure because of Liang Yijun, but now that I think about it, it’s not like that. Because they’re in a relationship, it’s impossible for Sun Ting not to know that Liang Yijun has a habit of sexual abuse. Why did she survive? Moreover, on the day of Wang Ran’s accident, she asked for leave. How could there be such a coincidence? She must have discussed it with Liang Yijun. She sold Wang Ran to Liang Yijun. Liang Yijun didn’t even touch her but gave her money for her material needs. After all, Wang Ran and I were just tools for her to use.”

“How could you have such a guess?”

“After Wang Ran disappeared, I wanted to go to the police, but Sun Ting forbid me. She said that within 48 hours, even if I called the police, the police would not file a case. After two days, I proposed to go to the police station again. She said she had a friend in Huacheng Police who asked me to stay home. She said she went to the police station, and I didn’t suspect it. Now I think about whether she went to the police or not. I didn’t really know. By chance, I found an extra 500,000 yuan in her account. I asked her how she could have so much money, and she said Liang Yijun gave it. Wang Ran just disappeared, and Liang Yijun gave her half a million. That was the money after she sold Wang Ran.”

“Then why did she kill you? ”

“Because of you.”

“Because of me?” Ling Hua’an frowned slightly and guessed, “because I scratched your wrist?”

Gao Ying praised, “Mr. Ling, you are really smart! That’s right, it was because of the scratch on my wrist that made her realize the danger. That’s why she decided to kill me and then put all the blame on me. In this way, she can be imprisoned for a few years at most, and even if she behaves well, her sentence could be commuted or suspended.”

“Then who was the one who planned to kill Liang Yijun?””It was Sun Ting.

“Liang Yijun is Sun Ting’s bank. Why did she want to kill him?”

“Because I invoked Wang Ran’s ghost, she cherished her life and wanted to get rid of the relationship, so she planned to kill him.”

Gao Ying paused for a moment and said, “Maybe she killed me also because of this. After all, I unintentionally cut off her fortune.”

“Then what’s happened with Gao Mingqiang?”

A painful look appeared on Gao Ying’s face. She was silent for a while and said, “I never understood before why he appeared at the scene, but now that I think about it, it must be a trap set by Sun Ting. She just wanted him to be the scapegoat willingly. I didn’t expect him to be so stupid and willing to die for me. When Sun Ting told me about his death, I was completely blinded. Looking at the people watching the fun outside the yard, I was furious. It happened to bump into you, so you became my target.”

“What about Gao Mingqiang’s ghost?”

Gao Ying shook his head and said in pain, “I don’t know. I have also asked the master to invoke his soul, but he wasn’t sure. The master said there are only two possibilities, one is that he was devoured by the resentful ghost, and the other is that he was taken away by the underworld because suicide is a serious crime in the underworld.”

“Who is the master you hired?”

“It’s someone I met online. He said  he is the descendant of the Hao family, a family of ghost hunters.”

“Did he teach you guys about devouring resentful ghosts too?”

“En, the fastest way for a resentful ghost to become strong is to devour other resentful ghosts.”

“What’s that person’s name, where does he live, and how can I contact him?”

Gao Ying’s eyes flashed, and she said, “Help me if you want to know.”

Ling Hua’an said indifferently, “I can help you, but I must receive payment. That’s the rule.”

“What kind of payment do you want?”

“What do you have?”

Gao Ying was taken aback for a while, then pulled a wry smile from her mouth and said, “Now I find out that I actually have nothing.”

Ling Hua An sighed and said, “You have already harmed your life. According to the rules, I should immediately notify the underworld to take you back to hell. For the sake of the information you revealed, I’ll let you go. You can go.”

With a struggling look on Gao Ying’s face, she took out a piece of blood jade from her pocket and said, “I only have this now. Can I use it as a reward?”

Ling Hua’an was stunned, then looked at Gao Ying in surprise and said, “How did you get this thing?”

“This is the only thing left by my adoptive father, Gao Mingqiang.”

Ling Hua’an reached out and took the blood jade; it felt warm in his hand and had a dazzling red color. There were tiny lines on it as if blood was flowing. Holding it, the whole person felt very comfortable, as if the soul had been comforted.

Ling Hua’an looked at Gao Ying and said, “Do you know how precious this is?”

Gao Ying shook her head and then nodded again, saying, “Its value to me because it once belonged to him. It’s the only thing he left behind, I don’t care about the rest.”

Ling Hua’an said frankly, “this is the soul jade, which has the function of nourishing the soul. With its nourishment, even if the ghost couldn’t reincarnate, it would not become a lonely ghost. If normal people wearing it will also make them less sick and have less disaster, you can say it is worth a lot.”

Gao Ying looked at Ling Hua’an, the corners of her mouth curled up in a smile, and said, “You are exceptional. If it were someone else, I’m afraid they wouldn’t tell me this and wouldn’t let me take advantage of it. But you’re so honest, no wonder you have such great fortune and didn’t die even after being stabbed in the heart.”

Ling Hua’an smiled noncommittally and said, “Are you sure you want to use this as payment?”

Gao Ying reluctantly looked at the soul jade in Ling Hua’an’s hand and said, “He died, and I didn’t even see his ghost. Maybe it’s heaven’s punishment for my wrongdoing. No matter how precious things are, for me, It’s not as important as the truth, and this also will be an explanation for him.”

“Okay, I’ll do you a favor, but I can’t break the rules. I need to notify the Underworld now. You go first.”

“No need. Going to hell is my karma. I admit it. Mr. Ling, I hope you do what you say.”

“For us—Spirit Guide, promises are karma, so don’t worry.”

Gao Ying breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, “I believe in Mr. Ling’s character.”

“How did Sun Ting poison you, and where is your body?”

“Because of his death, I felt lost as my whole world had collapsed. That day, Sun Ting was rarely in the kitchen, cooking and making a table full of food. I had no appetite and only drank a glass of orange juice. Soon I felt Something was wrong. I looked at Sun Ting and saw that she was smiling at me. After that, I didn’t know anything. When I regained consciousness again, I had become a ghost. She buried my body on Xihua Mountain.”

“How could she have transported the body to Xihua Mountain alone?”

“Sun Ting has a pursuer named Wang Tianyang, an employee of Heilan Company. Even though he knows about her relationship with Liang Yijun, he is still devoted to Sun Ting. If Sun Ting asks him to help, he will help.”

“Do you and Sun Ting look exactly the same? Are there any characteristics  that distinguish you two?”

“Sun Ting and I are identical twins. We look almost the same, but we are not indistinguishable. Because my adoptive mother often beats me, I have a lot of scars on my body. The most obvious is the scar near my wrist. There is a scalded scar, oval, about the size of a dollar coin, so I never wear short sleeves outside.” 

Gao Ying paused before saying excitedly, “A female colleague accidentally knocked over my red wine and spilled it on my sleeve. At that time, she saw my scar and asked about it. She should remember this incident. It can prove that I was the one who had dinner at home and Sun Ting was the murderer.”

Ling Hua’an smiled and said, “So this proves the sentence, ‘the cycle of karma and retribution.”

The corner of Gao Ying’s mouth raised a relaxed smile and said, “Mr. Ling, it’s thanks to you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have thought of this. I can only say that I found the right person.”

“Gao Ying, what is the real name of that so-called master?”

“I don’t know what his name is. I only know his last name is Hao, but I have his VX. With Mr. Ling’s and Captain Jiang’s relationship, it will not be difficult to find him.”

“Okay.” Ling Hua’an was silent for a while, then said, “Gao Ying, I’m going to inform the underworld. Are you… ready?”

“Mr. Ling, I heard that people who commit suicide will go to hell, right?” Gao Ying asked without answering.

Ling Hua’an was stunned, then replied, “Yes, committing suicide in the underworld is a serious sin, and you will be sent to hell.”

Gao Ying said with relief, “So maybe we will see each other again. Mr. Ling, go ahead.”

Ling Hua’an sighed, took out a paper talisman, and recited the incantation silently. Within a few minutes, the room suddenly cooled down, and two familiar figures appeared in the ward, none other than Hei Bai Wuchang, whom he had just met not long ago.

Bai Wuchang glanced at Gao Ying, then his eyes fell on Ling Hua’an, and he said with a smile, “Looking at Mr. Ling’s expression, the injury should not be serious.”

“Thank you, both lords for your concern. My injury isn’t serious.”

“That day’s incident, Mr. Ling, please don’t misunderstand. It’s your fate to have this disaster. We can not intervene, so Mr. Ling, don’t blame us.”

“My lord, worry too much. I have been a Spirit Guide for many years and naturally understand the truth of fate.”

Bai Wuchang smiled with satisfaction, then turned his eyes to Gao Ying and said, “You have killed people, you have committed a serious crime, and you cannot be reincarnated. Come to hell with us.”

Gao Ying did not resist, and let Hei Wuchang lock the chain on his body.

Hei Bai Wuchang looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

Bai Wuchang arched his hand and said,  “Mr. Ling is really good!”

“This is all because she has long regretted it. It has nothing to do with me. I also asked the two lords to tell Yan Jun truthfully so that Yan Jun can punish her lightly.”

“Okay, I will pass Mr. Ling’s words, goodbye. ”

“Goodbye.”
