packed my luggage and my brother came up to help me carry it down. He reminded me to check with Old Mrs. Wu one more time.Because this trip back home is estimated to be a short-term stay, even if Gran...Mu Wanchen chuckled lightly: “I can teach you, if you’re willing to learn with your heart. As for matters of the afterlife, you can ask Mu Xiaoqiao for advice, she's the most skilled in this.”

Little wife

"My little wife doesn't look much older than me, and she's so gentle. She even knows how to give a good massage" I said frankly.

"She is the wife of the Northern Divine Emperor, wouldn't you say she's favored" Mu Wanchen was too lazy to discuss his junior sister's level of favoritism with me.

I already know who that Master was... Turns out he's the deity in charge of the underworld. No wonder he's so elusive and ethereal, like a ghost. He's a celestial being after all.

The little wife is truly amazing. To be adored by such a "cold" deity like a marshmallow, it's really something to learn from! She embodies the very essence of steel tempered into softness.

Suddenly, footsteps echoed from the stairwell. I anxiously looked at Mu Wanchen.

He raised his hand and quickly drew a talisman, tapping it on the little ghost's forehead. The little ghost immediately curled up into a ball and disappeared like smoke, emitting blue smoke.

"Dead" I hesitated to ask.

"He's long dead, but give him a release." He answered faintly.

I couldn't bear it and remained silent for a long time.

Mu Wanchen pulled me up and said in a low voice, "Go, let's talk outside."

He pulled me toward the window sill and I squeezed my eyes shut, clutching his waist in fright. But there was no feeling of falling at all, we landed on the street as if walking.

The crowd watching nearby was still there. An elderly man said angrily, “This is too much! He suddenly rushed out and turned under the truck's wheels. The driver got really unlucky! You meet lunatics like this!”

I stood there, eavesdropping. What did that mean It wasn't an accident, was it It was running into the road to commit suicide

"Are you on drugs Otherwise, why would you crash your car for no reason"

"I think it's suicide. The poor driver met such a person, he has to pay and go to jail, what about his wife and children..."

"It seems like the dead guy was also a driver. Just now, I heard a woman crying beside the body..."

The more I listened, the more something felt off. I looked up at Mu Wanchen—couldn't this be the remains of that driver

The woman vanished, but he died here.

Mu Wanchen's expression was solemn, he slightly raised his head to look at the dilapidated corpse in the distance.

"He nourished the little ghosts with the blood of living people. When his deeds were exposed, he killed to silence them and then fled, a brutal and efficient method." He spoke in a low voice.

“Well...the eyewitness said it was himself who dashed out onto the road and went under the truck.” I scratched my head in confusion.

Mu Wanchen shook her head: "There are many ways to control people in witchcraft, the body, the soul, even corpses."

My heart skipped a beat. So, Mu Wanchen actually had many ways to control... me

I couldn't help but look up at him, his gaze peering through the slits of his sunglasses.

This moment of eye contact allowed me to sense a faint trace of resignation and compassion in his eyes.

"...You don't have to be afraid of me, I wouldn't do that to you." He said coldly, releasing his grip on my arm.

He possessed a temperature unlike any other.

If you get too close, too dependent on his warmth... once he lets go, you'll immediately feel the chill.

My phone suddenly buzzed, displaying a strange number. I hesitated before answering the call.

"Hello, is this Yin Luo" a very formal male voice sounded.

I stammered an "um," unclear about the other person's intentions.

"We're from the criminal investigation unit. We just received a case and started investigating. The last call on the victim's phone was made to your number. We know you are a student, so we won't ask you to come to the police station to leave your record. However, could you please cooperate with our investigation"

"Huh I... can... How do I cooperate" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"We're very close to you, just two minutes away." The other party hung up after speaking.

I was stunned for two seconds, and quickly said to Mu Wanchen, "There are policemen who want to ask me questions. You'd better go back first, otherwise your identity will be a big problem!"

"Are you able to handle this alone" Mu Wanchen frowned slightly.

"Nonsense! You make things even more unclear for me!"

I shoved him into the shadows with all my might, then ran a few steps away pretending I had nothing to do with it.

This disguise as a pedestrian feels a little uncomfortable, and I'm also feeling uneasy inside. Being watched by the police always makes me feel a bit guilty.

I saw two middle-aged men walking towards me, one of them was holding a cell phone in his hand.

My heart was beating wildly. I just wanted to take a deep breath and calm down, when I felt a faint warmth at the back of my neck.

Mu Wanchen leaned slightly behind me, lowering his voice and whispering in my ear: " ...strong on the outside, weak on the inside."

Oh my god~ Why isn't he moving further away! This close, it's like he's kissing my neck! How am I going to explain this to the police officer!

I was so mad my teeth ached, I turned and raised my foot to kick him, but he easily dodged me by stepping aside.

The voice of the police officer rang out before me: “… Miss Yin Luo, what are you doing”

I... I'm about to cry, if Mu Wanchen is a black household member, how should I explain Will he be detained

A middle-aged, handsome policeman raised his eyebrows and said, "Little girl, are you dancing around to swat mosquitoes"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Huh

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Their eyes looked past me, but they clearly didn't see Mu Wanchen. Instead, they seemed to look through time and around them.

"Can't you see him" I questioned Mu Wanchen with a puzzled look.

He hummed lazily and turned his head, saying, "Don't worry about me, just take care of yourself."

I gritted my teeth inwardly. If it weren't for the fact that those expensive, expensive glasses perched on your nose, I would have slapped you.

Two plainclothes officers were still waiting for my response. I whispered, "…a little too shocked. I feel, I feel a chill on my back."

The handsome man pulled out his ID and showed it to me. His surname was Zheng, and he said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, since you're standing here obediently waiting for us, it means you haven't done anything wrong."

"Of course I didn't do anything wrong...I even wanted to do good." I wanted to save people, but unfortunately, I was too late.

I stood behind the bus stop, whispering the whole story to him, erasing all mentions of witchcraft and sorcery. I only said that I saw the driver spending money on mistresses and wanted to give him a call to advise him. Before I could even utter a word, I heard strange laughter and the sound of the phone hitting the ground. I came running out of worry, and that's how things turned out.

"Theoretically, you have no suspicion because he was recorded the whole time by cameras. Can you provide us with that card"

I quickly reached into my small backpack and handed it to them. The younger officer took it, and I whispered, “Could you please not notify their family…”

Officer Zheng took a puff from his cigarette, paused for a moment, and grinned. "What's the matter Afraid your senior brother will give you a beating"

Huh

"You, you..."

"I know your brother, and I've heard of you too," he said with a wicked grin.

Oh my god... This is terrible, I ran into someone I know.

Mu Wanchen whispered behind me, "This person is shrewd. You should speak less."

I couldn't help but say, "Oh."

Officer Zheng immediately asked, "What Are you talking to someone—"

>t gods who know everything! However, hmph…"Si Huang let out a disdainful sneer."However, what You little witches, you're all talk and no substance, always beating around the bush, never getting to the...
