Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

Chapter 1144 Frightened Counselor Zhang

Chapter 1144 Frightened Counselor Zhang

??Counselor Zhang shuddered violently at Shuyan's words, and his hair stood on end.

??He didn't want to think too much about it, but it was inevitable when it came from Shuyan. If it were anyone else saying this, Counselor Zhang definitely wouldn't have believed them. In the face of this very capable student, however, and coupled with the various magical talismans Shuyan had given his family, he felt it was possible that there really were all sorts of strange things in this world.

??It was just that Counselor Zhang was still scared out of his wits when Chi Shuyan said it outright. His face was deathly white and the pen in his hand clattered to the floor. He was stupefied and his lips trembled. He suddenly said, "Shu… Shuyan, are you… talking about… that kind of thing?"

??Chi Shuyan nodded.

??Sure enough!

??Counselor Zhang's face turned even whiter. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. Why were these peaceful times suddenly so terrifying? He was so scared that his limbs turned to jelly and his vision turned black. "Is… is that thing really capable of harming people? Previously, Tang Ningbao…"

??Counselor Zhang didn't forget how Tang Ningbao had shouted that there were ghosts. He hadn't believed it at all before, but now that he thought of Tang Ningbao's face at that time, he was suspicious no matter how he thought about it. His hands trembled as he gritted his teeth and asked, "Shuyan, does our university also have things like that?"

??Chi Shuyan saw Counselor Zhang looking at her with a pale and fearful face, as if he would immediately faint if she nodded.

??Chi Shuyan was glad that she hadn't told him about the murders. She shook her head and said, "No, Counselor Zhang! Don't think too much. The chance of it being likely is like winning the lottery. Although many people encounter this kind of evil spirit occasionally, the chance of encountering it in your lifetime is very low – it's only once in a lifetime! Don't think too much! Besides, with these talismans, that thing won't dare come looking for you!"

??Counselor Zhang hurriedly nodded and heaved a sigh of relief as he immediately accepted the talismans. He originally wasn't thinking of going home, but when he thought of what Shuyan had said, he still planned to hurry back and give the talismans to his wife and son.

??He would really be worried if his wife and son didn't carry the talismans from Shuyan on them.

??After this, it was a little easier to apply for leave. Counselor Zhang immediately nodded, but before he approved her leave, he said, "Shuyan, I understand that this is very urgent, but it's best if you finish your afternoon classes. The school has been stricter in approving leave recently!"

??Chi Shuyan already had this in mind, and didn't want to make things difficult for Counselor Zhang, so she nodded.

??"Shuyan, thank you! Thank you. I'll thank you first on behalf of my wife and Xiaoyang for these talismans!" Counselor Zhang was really grateful to this child for thinking of him in everything.

??Before Shuyan left, Counselor Zhang originally wanted to ask about the young men who had provoked that thing, but after thinking about it, he really didn't have the guts to get involved in these muddy waters. The sun was shining brightly outside, but Counselor Zhang felt that this society was dangerous no matter how he looked at it. Fine, it was better not to know what ordinary people like him shouldn't know. Knowing didn't do any good.

??Chi Shuyan left Counselor Zhang's office and went to the police station. Captain Chen immediately brought her to Director Feng's office and said that the latter was inside. Before Chi Shuyan went in, she handed a stack of Exploding Talismans and Pure Yang Talismans to Captain Chen so that he could share them with the others. Although she had drawn a lot of talismans last night, in the end, there was a limit to what she could do. There were many people in the police station, and it was impossible for everyone to get the talismans. Chi Shuyan only had Captain Chen give them to a few acquaintances and the people in charge of this case.

??Captain Chen now knew that these things from Shuyan were definitely good stuff. As soon as she took out the talismans, Captain Chen's eyes immediately lit up. He immediately took them, afraid that Shuyan would change her mind if he was slow. Captain Chen said excitedly, "Master Chi, you're really too good!"

??"We're all on the same side. Why call me Master Chi? Just call me by my name!" Chi Shuyan didn't put on airs at all.

??Captain Chen beamed and patted Chi Shuyan on the shoulder happily. "Right, right, right, Shuyan, we're all on the same side. Why don't I mention to Director Feng to make an exception and have you join our team right away?"

??Captain Chen was very excited at the thought of the benefits of Shuyan joining their team. Besides, he admired how Shuyan never put on airs and kept a low profile.

??Chi Shuyan shook her head and laughed. "No, I'm still in my first year of uni. It's still early!"

??Captain Chen could only look disappointed.

??"Captain Chen, I'll go in first!"

??"Wait, Shuyan, I have a few things to ask you!" Captain Chen suddenly said.

??"Speak!"

??Captain Chen's face was a bit solemn at that moment, and he said, "Shuyan, is the massacre last night related to the thing those boys provoked?"

??Chi Shuyan nodded.

??Captain Chen sucked in a cold breath of air and couldn't help but ask again, "Then, is what those boys provoked more or less serious than what those girls from No. 5 Junior High provoked last time?"

??Chi Shuyan also wanted Captain Chen and the others to be prepared, so she didn't hide it and said forthrightly, "It's worse!"

??As soon as she said that, Captain Chen sucked in a cold breath of air. He was scared out of his wits by her words and couldn't calm down for a long time. Before Chi Shuyan pushed the door open and entered, she said, "So, Captain Chen, if anyone else takes action, tell them to wear the talismans I gave them, just in case. This thing is very savage and can also control other ghosts. When you go to the crime scene, be careful and watch out for any strange people!"

??Chi Shuyan didn't care how many bombshells she dropped. She opened the door and left Captain Chen to digest the information.

??At that moment, Captain Chen, who was outside the door, was really scared out of his wits by Chi Shuyan's words. He tightened his grip on the talismans in his hand. These were all life-saving things, so he had to hurry and hide them.

??Without these things, they might die if they weren't careful. No one wanted to die for no reason.

??Captain Chen was about to stuff all the talismans into his pocket, when Xiao Shan spotted them. He strode over. "Old Chen, what good stuff are you hiding?"

??Xiao Shan quickly grabbed Captain Chen's hand and glanced at his pocket. When he saw the yellow paper talismans, his face changed and he was overjoyed. "Old Chen, Master Chi just arrived. Did she give these talismans to you?"

??Without waiting for Captain Chen to answer, Xiao Shan was already certain that these talismans were most likely from Master Chi. He was very excited and hurriedly said, "Everyone who sees them has a share. Hurry up and give me half!"

??In the office, Brother Feng was still on the phone. Chi Shuyan wasn't in a hurry. She sat on the couch and waited for him to finish his call.

??When Feng Yuanlin ended the call, his face was still solemn.

??"What's wrong, Brother Feng?" Chi Shuyan poured a cup of water and placed it on Feng Yuanlin's table.

??Feng Yuanlin rubbed the space between his eyebrows and sighed. "It's a call from the attending physician of the father of the girl who was murdered last night. He asked if the body could be claimed tomorrow. He was supposed to come over this morning, but the girl's father seems to be in the hospital. After what happened to her, he fainted and is now in a coma. As for the girl's mother, she ran away with another man not long after her daughter was born since the family was poor! The girl is called Yang Jiao!"

??He thought of how the tragedy last night could have been avoided, but unfortunately, something still happened to the girl.

??Chi Shuyan didn't have a good impression of Yang Jiao, but when she thought of how the young lady had been assaulted and killed at a young age, Chi Shuyan sighed inwardly and felt terrible.

??Sometimes, a young lady's character and outlook on life were heavily influenced by her parents and household. Although that young lady didn't have a good disposition, she was ultimately a pitiful person.

??"Shuyan, why do I feel that these have been troubled times recently?" Feng Yuanlin lamented.

??"By the way, did the driver confess?" Chi Shuyan asked.

??At the mention of the driver, Feng Yuanlin's face was filled with anger and he said coldly, "We have physical evidence. How can he not acknowledge it? That beast!"

??It was indeed the driver's first time committing a crime. Because he suddenly harmed someone, he ran away in a hurry, but forgot about the evidence left in the girl's body, so he couldn't escape.

??Feng Yuanlin's expression was very complicated. "Speaking of which, this driver has a wife and child, and has a good life. His son is in junior high. They're not that well-off, and rely on his income to support the household, but he actually did such a thing!"

??Feng Yuanlin thought of how the driver's wife and son had run over this morning to plead for leniency. They said that without the driver, the family would have no income in the future and the mother wouldn't be able to raise the son. If the police didn't let the driver off, they would be cutting off the family's path of survival. Feng Yuanlin was helpless!

??Chi Shuyan nodded and was about to speak, when her phone suddenly rang. She picked up the call. Counselor Zhang's familiar voice rang out. "Shuyan, are you free to come back to school now? Director Huang is looking for you. I'm afraid you have to get his approval for your leave!"
