Translator: 549690339
“Master Xu, take care.11
“I’ll compile the information you need and send it to you.”
The off-road vehicle drove directly to the entrance of the funeral store.
Xu Yang got our of the car, feeling light on his feet and walking with a sense of floating, head held high and chest puffed out as he stepped into the store.
“Master Xu, you’re back?”
Behind the counter, Yang Yin was holding a calculator, resetting it repeatedly with pressing burtons non-stop.
Xu Yang responded with a hum and casually asked as he sat down confidently, “Where’s Shishi?”
“Shishi is upstairs watching a TV show…”
Yang Yin looked up carefully examining Xu Yang for a few moments, a hint of confusion in her eyes.
Why did it feel…
Like he was different somehow?
His whole body seemed to radiate an aura of confidence!
For a moment, Yang Yin was awestruck, completely lovesick.
Xu Yang raised his eyebrows and demanded, “Why are you staring at me? Go upstairs and call Shishi down, let’s go eat… Oh, right, I just got a message from Ma Long that your grave has been arranged, and today is a good day. After we eat, we’ll prepare for a grand funeral for you.”
By the time Liu Shishi came downstairs, the three of them went out together.
Xu Yang deliberately picked a high-end restaurant and ordered a feast of delicious dishes.
At the dinner table, Yang Yin hugged a giant lobster and suddenly began to sob.
>i <1
With a baffled look, Xu Yang couldn’t help but ask, “Yang Yin, why are you crying? Didn’t you say you used to belong to a wealthy family when you were alive? And had even been abroad… Have you never had lobster before?”
Even if it were her first time eating it, it wouldn’t be enough to make her cry, right?
But Yang Yin suddenly burst into tears.
She threw herself into Liu Shishi’s arms, choking back sobs, “Sister Shishi, I
don’t want to leave, waaaah… 1 can t bear to part with you!”
Liu Shishi:
Xu Yang:
One person, one ghost, staring at each other in confusion.
Xu Yang: “Where are you going?”
Yang Yin wiped her tears: “Master Xu, aren’t you going to send me away? You’ve prepared my funeral… so ail this delicious food was for my farewell dinner, right?”
“!!!”
Xu Yang said helplessly, “The funeral is to put your bones to rest… It’s not like I can carry your coffin with me every day, right?”
“I don’t believe it!”
Yang Yin said, “We usually eat noodles, cold skin, and hot pot, so why are we suddenly eating so well today if it’s not for my farewell dinner?”
“Can’t 1 be rich?”
Xu Yang retorted irritably, “1 helped the Spirits Management Bureau solve two mysterious cases today, dealt with two fierce ghosts, and received a million yuan as a reward… isn’t it normal to eat a little better?”
The two female ghosts were both shocked!
“One million?”
“Sister Shishi, last time we saw a handbag in the mall that was less than 30,000… catching a fierce ghost is worth so much. If we were to sell me, wouldn’t it be enough to buy 20 handbags?”
“My silly sister, why would I sell you?”
“Sister, you’re the Ghost King, with many Yin spirits and malevolent beings under your command, including those of the Red Robe level. Why not sell a few to the Spirits Management Bureau?”
The two women whispered to each other, their eyes filled with excitement.
Xu Yang listened, caught off guard…
What the fuck!
That’s too cruel, isn’t it?
You’re ghosts, and you’re actually planning to sell your own kind to the Spirits Management Bureau just to buy some lousy handbags???
After dinner, there was still plenty of time. It was just a little past six in the evening.
During Wu City’s summer, the sun wouldn’t set until eight o’clock. Ma Long s father had already bought the cemetery plot, and everything was ready, waiting for Xu Yang to send the coffin for burial.
Instead of going directly to the grave, Xu Yang went back to the store first.
He sat down confidently in his chair and grandly pointed to rhe shelf, “Today, I’m in a good mood, Yang Yin, whatever you want on this shelf, go ahead and take it!”
“Really?”
Yang Yin was thrilled, and jumped onto Xu Yang’s side, giving him a smack on his cheek.
Xu Yang: “. ”
He was completely stunned.
Groping his face, he felt rhe icy cold sensation, fully tangible. Lifting his head, he saw Liu Shishi’s face looking somewhat gloomy, and quickly put on a furious expression: “Yang Yin, what are you doing?”
“If you mess around again, I won’t forgive you!”
However, the corner of his mouth.
Couldn’t help but curl upwards. Sneaking a peek at Liu Shishi from the corner of his eye, he saw that she was already helping Yang Yin load up the items on the shelf, and then felt his face once more.
“It’s a bit magical…’1
“I was actually kissed by a ghost! ”
A thought crossed Xu Yang’s mind, and he thought of another question.
Ghosts were not made of flesh and blood, but of rhe congealed “Yin Body” of Yin energy, without any warmth, so ir felt icy cold when kissed… so, if they were to do something else, would ir also be cold?
Very soon.
One man and two ghosts arrived at rhe cemetery.
The funeral went smoothly.
Yang Yin even invited Liu Shishi to lie down in his “Phoebe zhennan coffin” for a while.
Xu Yang was responsible for burning paper on the side.
As he burned, Yang Yin started to cry.
“Wu wu wu wu….”
“Master Xu, you’re too good to me.”
“It’s been decades since anyone has burned anything for me… wu wu wu wu… hahaha!”
Crying and laughing, she said: ’’Shishi, we re rich! I emptied all the underworld notes from the shelves today, a total of 80 trillion 1 Tomorrow on the 15th, when the Ghost Market opens, I’ll take you there to splurge, buy whatever you want!1’
By the time they finished Yang Yin’s funeral and returned to the funeral shop, it was already 9 PM.
Xu Yang took a shower and sat on the bed, ready to cultivate, when his phone rang.
Picking up the phone, he saw that Wang Lin had sent him several files about “mysterious cases.”
“Desperate for a child… huh?”
Xu Yang saw the title of one of the mysterious cases and wondered, “Isn’t this a telecommunications scam? How did it become a curious incident?”
Opening the file.
Xu Yang began reading.
The file recorded a total of nine cases.
All nine victims shared a common feature… before their accidents, they had dialed the “Desperate for a Child” advertisement phone number, and when they woke up, they vanished without a trace.
When they were found, they were already dead bodies.
Their bodies were intact with no signs of cutting, but both kidneys had mysteriously disappeared.
The last case occurred three months ago.
Xu Yang sent a message to Wang Lin.
According to Wang Lin’s explanation…
He and Bai Wei had been investigating this case for a long time. They had some leads, but three months ago, the thing suddenly disappeared as if it had vanished from the earth, so the case was pur on hold.
“Desperate for a child and stealing kidneys?”
Xu Yang looked at the file and couldn’t help saying, “Interesting.”
At the same time.
Inside a nightclub.
Ma Long was surrounded by two girls as he entered.
He played in the nightclub until late before leaving. He hailed a taxi and after giving his home address, he passed out in exhaustion.
Unknown how long he slept for.
When he finally opened his eyes, Ma Long discovered…
He somehow appeared in a desolate countryside, surrounded by darkness and a faint mist in the air, unable to tell the directions.
