Chapter 75: This world is unscientific (6)

Although Master Yi didn’t say much, but his words were true. Crying now would not solve any problems. Their first priority should be to find Pang Fei’s body and then investigate exactly what is going on with that student called Li Yao from Pang Fei’s school.

This definitely wasn’t a small case. Pang Fei alone had seen that almost 10 people went missing. Later on, he didn’t continue to observe Li Yao, but a year had passed. As long as Li Yao hasn’t been exposed, then the number of victims would only increase. Thinking about it, if all the missing people were dead, then exactly what kind of situation or sorcery required the use of so many dead people?

Thinking this, even Yi Xiao, who initially didn’t care much about this matter, felt that he must report this situation to the Xuan Dao union later.

“Alright, let’s first go to the bookstore.” Ren Zhu looked at Pang Fei: “Do you still remember the address?”

Pang Fei resentfully nodded: “How can I not remember?! Don’t say that I’m a ghost, even if I turn into ashes, I’ll still remember it! Its just that that place is very strange. Just like how I couldn’t go out of the other building before, I can’t move any closer than about 50 metres from the bookstore. I don’t know if this will have any effect on you two. Anyway, I’ll first take you guys there!”

Pang Fei then turned around and prepared to leave. Seeing this, Mother Pang also followed after him, but was directly stopped by her evil spirit son. “Mum, you’ll only expose me if you go. The reason why I’m unable to reincarnate is mostly because I’m afraid you’ll run into trouble okay? Aren’t you just walking right into a trap if you do this? I won’t go on about how you didn’t go and buy a dog and instead eavedropped outside the door. Whatever the case, you now need to seriously go to the pet market and pick up a golden retriever or a labrador. Those dogs are sensitive and are exceptionally loyal to their owners. If you still don’t raise one to protect yourself, then your son will be worried to death.”

Mother Pang felt helpless because of her son and turned to look at Ren Zhu and Yi Xiao. Ren Zhu nodded: “What Xiao Fei said is reasonable. If there really is something wrong with that bookstore, then it’s not suitable for auntie to go, so as to not expose any information. How about this; auntie, after you go and buy a dog, you can then buy some groceries to cook a delicious meal for your son. I have a way for Xiao Fei to be able to eat something at lunch.”

Mother Pang’s eyes lit up. Pang Fei also looked at Ren Zhu with excitement: “Heavens, Teacher Ren! You can actually let me be able to taste delicious food again? God knows how many times I have thought of braised pork ribs, braised chicken, oil braised prawns and my mother’s egg tofu in the past year! It really feels horrible to only be able to look but not eat!”

Ren Zhu smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry, even if I can’t do it, there’s still this master beside me. It is said that this person is? Xuan Dao’s one in a hundred years genius. It’s a simple matter for him to let you eat a meal.”

Having been silent the entire time, Master Yi snorted when he heard this and arrogantly corrected: “It’s one in five hundred years genius.”

Ren Zhu: “……” He suddenly felt that even if this person didn’t speak, his showing off and flaunting was already overflowing.

Mother Pang became emotional and her eyes turned red, wishing to draw out all her savings to round up the entire food market. She quickly patted the black shadow in front of her: “Okay, okay. Mother will go buy it for you right away! Whether it’s braised pork ribs, braised prawns, braised chicken or egg tofu and cabbage, mother will make them all for you, enough to fill the entire table! I’ll wait for you to come back and eat!” It had already been a year since she was this happy and looked forward to cooking a meal. She also didn’t know if her skills had gotten rusty. Would her son think that her food didn’t taste good?

Looking at his mother, Pang Fei felt a little sad. Although he was now just a ghost, he still couldn’t help but reach out and hug his mother: “Mum, your cooking is the best. No matter what you make, they’re all delicious! I can eat an entire pot!”

Mother Pang nodded eagerly and rushed to fill her wallet with money. Seeing this, Ren Zhu didn’t really know what to say. For a middle-aged mother to have lost her son at such a young age, words couldn’t be used to express her pain and anguish!

Mother Pang then saw them off at the door. After walking out, Pang Fei said: “That place is a little far from our house. How are we getting there? I can float, but you two……”

Before he could finish speaking, he was stunned by the two luxury cars downstairs. Seeing Ren Zhu and Yi Xiao each claim a car, the young ghost Pang Fei felt that even if he’s dead, he still couldn’t get rid of his habit of hating the rich!

“Don’t you think it’s too much to drive two cars? One will do just fine! I think this black one is more simple and pleasing. Let’s just take this car.” Pang Fei pointed at Teacher Ren’s car. Seeing that Yi Xiao was displeased, he then said: “I really couldn’t tell ah, Master Yi. You’re such a calm person, why is your car a bright silver Benz? So bold and flashy?”

Master Yi coolly glanced at him: “Do you have a problem with that?”

Pang Fei suddenly felt cold all over: “No, no! This car is really cool! It’s just that it’s not suitable for keeping a low profile.”

Master Yi coldly laughed: “Even if you do have a problem, you must hold it in. This is the car I purchased according to my partner’s preference.”

Drooling over Yi Xiao’s car, Teacher Ren froze when he heard this and then adopted a look of disdain. Who likes this kind of flashy car?! He doesn’t like it!! So in the end, they still chose to leave in the ordinary Volkswagen. In fact, Teacher Ren didn’t like driving at all. Even if the distance wasn’t far, he would rather ride an electric scooter than drive. Thinking about how he would need to drive for an hour this time, he would probably be tired afterwards. As a result, as soon as he opened the car door, Yi Xiao took the initiative to get in the driver’s seat. He then held up his hand to Ren Zhu and said: “Give me the key.”

Teacher Ren was a little confused: “This is my car.”

Yi Xiao: “I’ll drive.”

Although he didn’t know why this guy was acting like this, but wasn’t it a good thing that he didn’t have to drive? Hence, Teacher Ren directly gave the keys to Yi Xiao and cheerfully sat in the passenger seat. He then turned and said to Pang Fei: “You sit in the back! That should be enough space for you.”

Pang Fei: “……” As a ghost, he actually felt as though he was forcibly stuffed with dog food! Was he hallucinating?!

Yi Xiao easily sensed that Ren Zhu was happy he didn’t need to drive. The corner of his lips slightly raised and a trace of a smile flashed through his eyes. Yes, it was just like this. Everything was as he remembered. Even if he didn’t remember this person, his actions and feelings told him that it was him, hold him tight.

The car smoothly drove off. Ren Zhu and Pang Fei talked Li Yao and that bookstore along the way.

“Li Yao was my classmate in the second year of senior high. She should be in her third year this year. She is studying literature. I also studied literature. My compositions were pretty good. I wanted to be a novelist in the future.”

“Li Yao’s grades are ordinary, but she looks pretty. A lot of male students want to chase after her. So that’s why they say seeking a beauty can lead to bitter consequences!”

“Me? I certainly didn’t die because I was charmed by her okay! I don’t like Li Yao! That girl who’s as delicate as a small white flower looks really fake. I- cough cough. Anyway, because I go on the same route as her back home, she asked me many times before I agreed to walk her to the bookstore. I just didn’t expect that I would die like this.”

“That bookstore is called Discovery Books Society. It’s a pretty good name, right? I feel like that bookstore has simply tarnished that name! I couldn’t tell when I was alive, but after I died, I discovered that that place has a lot of negative energy similar to that on my body. It is definitely not a good place!”

……

The two of them intermittently talked the entire way and finally arrived at the street where the bookstore was located. After parking the car, Pang Fei said: “Keep walking down to the end of the street. The bookstore is decorated in a very artistic style. A lot of young students like to read books there as well as get a cup of coffee. I’ll just stay here at this intersection. You two go in and look. If you’re lucky, you might also be able to run into Li-”

“Li Yao!!”

Pang Fei was facing Ren Zhu and Yi Xiao when his expression suddenly changed and he shouted. Fortunately, he was now only a ghost, so ordinary people couldn’t hear him. Ren Zhu quickly told him to calm down, but then Pang Fei shouted out another name in agitation: “Fuck! Zhang Lian Fei!! Da Fei! Has your brain been eaten by dogs?! How can you also dare to follow this person here?! Zhang Lian Fei! Zhang Lian Fei! Hurry up and stop! You must not enter that bookstore!”

Shouting like this, Pang Fei directly rushed over towards Li Yao and that tall male student beside her.

However, he had only taken a few steps when he was easily grabbed and dragged back by Master Yi. Ren Zhu then seriously lectured him: “Calm down a little. If you rush over like this, not only would you be unable to stop Zhang Lian Fei, you’d also make Li Yao have some doubts. I just noticed that although Li Yao is an ordinary person, she’s carrying something on her that’s giving off a very demonic aura. It should be harmful to evil spirits and souls.”

Hearing this, Yi Xiao turned his head and looked at this guy who was lying with a straight face. He felt that his partner was really cute. He was so serious even when lying. Apart from this guy’s strange ability, he basically didn’t have any knowledge of Xuan Xue Dao techniques. He also hadn’t opened his yin yang eyes, so what could he see? Ren Zhu probably just noticed that Li Yao was wearing a blood jade around her neck. But his partner really was clever ah. That blood jade really was emitting a demonic aura.

Having been lectured for a while, Pang Fei looked at Ren Zhu like an aggrieved puppy: “Teacher Ren, Zhang Lian Fei is my best buddy! The two of use have been classmates from elementary school all the way to senior high. His family only has his dad, my family only has my mother, so we have supported each other growing up. We’re just like a family. If one of us is bullied, then the other person would definitely rush over to help him. That is my dear brother!”

Pang Fei’s voice trembled: “I wrongly accused him just now. His brain wasn’t eaten by dogs. He must have come with Li Yao because he felt that there was something wrong with her! He must be investigating into my matter! It must be this! Besides my mother, Da Fei was the most angry when I died. He knew that Li Yao had found me to protect her. I saw him specifically go and find Li Yao, but Li Yao came up with all kinds of excuses to evade him. He must be trying to avenge me and find out the truth! Teacher Ren! Master Yi! You must go in and protect Da Fei! I am already dead, but I don’t want anything to happen to Da Fei!!”

Pang Fei’s body exuded a dense negative and resentful aura. Seeing that he was about to blow up, Yi Xiao simply grabbed him and rolled him up into a small ball before stuffing him into his pocket.

Teacher Ren stared at this action in shock. He didn’t expect that this could also be done. Yi Xiao then look at Ren Zhu: “Let’s go.”

“Oh.”

Ren Zhu looked at the tall man dressed entirely in black in front of him. He felt that even if this person was always silent and had an annoying face that had ‘I am God’ written all over it, he was also a ‘genius level master’. Let’s just ignore his face and his words.

Yi Xiao was 185cm tall, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist and long legs. Walking briskly, he directly passed in front of Li Yao and Zhang Lian Fei. Ren Zhu ran a few steps to follow him and also passed the two of them. Lamenting his own height of 175cm, he then listened to the conversation behind him.

.

“I’m telling you, I have been watching you for a long time. At least 15 people who came with you to this bookstore didn’t come back out. Either there’s something wrong with this bookstore, or you’re colluding with this bookstore and have captured Xiao Fei. Other people might believe you, but don’t believe you at all. This time, if you don’t tell me the truth, then I will give all the evidence I’ve found to the police!” Zhang Lian Fei’s voice was filled with anger but also exhaustion.

Li Yao’s voice then sounded loud and clear: “I’ve already said that I have nothing to do with this bookstore. I just like to come here and read books! Also, I have nothing to do with Xiao Fei’s disappearance okay! There’s a lot of surveillance cameras on this street. Weren’t there recordings of Xiao Fei? He only disappeared after he came out of the bookstore.”

“Hah, if you guys can make Xiao Fei disappear without a word, then this street’s monitoring isn’t enough proof.” Zhang Lian Fei’s voice was filled with suspicion: “It seems that you don’t intend to tell me the truth. You also want to deceive me here and make me disappear like Xiao Fei.”

Zhang Lian Fei sneered: “That’s exactly what I want. Maybe I’ll be able to directly find Xiao Yi. Also, once I disappear, I guarantee that nothing good will happen to you or this bookstore!”

Li Yao sighed and didn’t say any more. However, walking in front of them, Ren Zhu suddenly felt a coldness coming from behind him.

[Ding. Congratulations to the host on successfully triggering the new skill, the ‘class teacher’s ominous premonition’: During exam time, you would always have a premonition that some students would score zero points. Every time you feel uneasy after class and having a premonition that there’ll be children fighting each other, this premonition would always appear like Murphy’s law. But because of this premonition, it acts as a warning and has a protective effect. Please work hard to upgrade it and turn it into the ‘class teacher’s premonition’!]

[Ding. The host has triggered the skill, ‘class teacher’s ominous premonition’: Please pay attention to Zhang Lian Fei.]

Ren Zhu: “……” So this is saying that because he had been worrying for the past few days that an evil spirit would suddenly pop up and attack him, this caused him to trigger such a…… supernatural skill?

He could only let out a dry laugh.
