Chapter 12 The Truth(1/2)
I screamed and hid behind Han Jiuchen.
Han Jiuchen waved his hand, and a white light hit Gu Ting, knocking her back several steps.
But Gu Ting refused to give in. No matter how Han Jiuchen beat her, she insisted on walking towards me.
I can't bear it, after all, this is Gu Ting's body.
I stopped Han Jiuchen and said, "Let's see what she wants to do."
"Aren't you afraid?" he asked.
I shook my head and whispered: "As long as you are here, I am not afraid."
Han Jiuchen looked at me deeply, said nothing, stopped attacking, and stood between Gu Ting and me.
Gu Ting seemed to know that she couldn't really get close to me, so she stopped in front of Han Jiuchen.
She made no other movements, just opened her mouth towards us.
I hid behind Han Jiuchen and stretched out my head to look over. I couldn't believe what I saw - Gu Ting...she didn't have a tongue!
I covered my mouth, tears falling uncontrollably, "She... what on earth did she go through!"
Han Jiuchen said nothing, took two steps forward, twirled his sword finger, and put it between Gu Ting's eyebrows.
After a while, Han Jiuchen said with surprise: "It turns out that person is you!"
I quickly asked: "Who is he?"
Han Jiuchen looked at Gu Ting, who shook her head at him, as if begging him not to tell me.
"Are you willing?" Han Jiuchen asked.
Gu Ting shook her head and walked towards me. She opened her arms and wanted to hug me like she had done countless times before.
This time Han Jiuchen didn't stop him.
He stepped aside and encouraged me with his eyes, "Don't be afraid, Gu Ting has no ill intentions."
I guess Han Jiuchen must have known something just now, maybe even the truth about how Gu Ting harmed me.
Since he has expressed his stance, Gu Ting must be safe now.
I lowered my guard and stepped forward to hug her.
Gu Ting patted my back, as if she was comforting me, but also as if she was apologizing.
Gu Ting let me go and bowed deeply towards Han Jiuchen.
Han Jiuchen said: "I can save you."
Gu Ting shook her head and pointed at the corpses of doctors and policemen lying on the ground. She seemed to be saying that there were lives in her hands and they were not worthy of redemption.
Finally, Gu Ting lay back on the corpse bed by herself.
Han Jiuchen sighed and took out the ring-shaped jade pendant. Gu Ting's soul turned into a wisp of black mist and was collected into the jade pendant.
Han Jiuchen put away the jade pendant, moved the bodies of the doctor and policeman onto the corpse bed, and then took me out of the morgue.
He was not in a hurry to leave the hospital, but took me to the monitoring room.
Only then did I remember that there are surveillance cameras everywhere in this hospital. All the staff in the surveillance room must have seen what just happened. I wonder how frightened they would be.
To my surprise, the staff in the control room were very calm, as if nothing had happened.
Seeing Han Jiuchen, he stood up and handed over a USB flash drive, "Master Jiu, I copied all the videos just now."
Han Jiuchen hummed, took the USB flash drive and put it into his suit pocket, and asked, "Where are those people who ran away just now!"
"Dongzi has been brought back to the team. The news has been blocked. No one outside knows."
"Please process the video here so that no flaws can be found," Han Jiuchen ordered, and then took me away.
We sat on chairs in the corner of the hospital hall, waiting for the Gu family to arrive.
Naturally, I wouldn't sit there like this. I have to figure out what happened with Gu Ting, that jade pendant, and what happened in the monitoring room just now.
I really hate the feeling of being kept in the dark. It feels like everyone else is smart and I am a fool.
"What did Gu Ting tell you?" I asked Han Jiuchen.
"Although Gu Ting doesn't want me to tell you the matter, I think you have the right to know." Han Jiuchen said, "But Su Qingzheng, what I am going to tell you next may be beyond your tolerance. Are you sure you still want to know?" Do you want to know?"
"I want it!" I said without hesitation, "Which thing in the past two days is beyond my tolerance? I can accept it, just tell me."
Han Jiuchen sighed lowly and reached out to rub my head. I actually saw...love in his eyes?!
"I just explored Gu Ting's memories of the past two days..."
On the day he and I signed the soul contract, Gu Ting went home to ask for help, only to find that her sister-in-law Zhao Qing had been taken away from her, and the lives of her family were in Zhao Qing's hands.
The female ghost in the cemetery, the female ghost in my home, Granny Xu who helped me to ejaculate, and He Jin’s transfer of hatred caused me to be attacked by the female ghost who hated my mistress. Even the fetal bones on that female ghost were It was the ghost in Zhao Qing who planned it.
Not only did she want me dead, she wanted my soul to be shattered.
Gu Ting is not unkind to me. Every time I am in danger, she will inform Han Jiuchen in advance.
Yesterday, Gu Ting chased Granny Xu out and found Zhao Qing to have a showdown with her. She hoped that Zhao Qing would let her family go. She didn't want to do anything to hurt her friends anymore.
Zhao Qing had no intention of giving up. She asked Gu Ting to tell He Jin her plan to transfer her hatred, but Gu Ting refused to carry out the plan.
So Zhao Qing forcibly seized the house and replaced it by herself.
The female ghost in the school failed to kill me, so Zhao Qing tried another plan. She made it look like Gu Ting had a car accident and deceived me into the morgue, intending to kill me with her own hands.
This is why Gu Ting only has my contact information on her phone.
Gu Ting's consciousness refused to cooperate, so Zhao Qing refused to do anything and simply killed Gu Ting.
After talking to me on the phone, Gu Ting's body was no longer of use, so Zhao Qingsheng cut off Gu Ting's tongue as punishment for informing Han Jiuchen.
"You all know what happened next. As for the surveillance video, it was just to avoid causing panic among the people." Han Jiuchen said, "That jade pendant is to send Gu Ting's soul to where it should go. I can't handle anything that is too thin." I’m telling you, don’t make things difficult for me and don’t ask.”
I burst into tears.
No wonder the things Gu Ting guided me to do were all dangerous, no wonder Han Jiuchen arrived in time every time, no wonder Han Jiuchen was so surprised and said it was you...
I cried and said: "What on earth have I done wrong? Why would someone want me to die so tirelessly...even causing Gu Ting to end up like this..."
Han Jiuchen patted my back gently, comforting me silently.
"What about Gu Ting's family?"
"You don't have to worry about the Gu family, I will make all arrangements. The key now is your safety. There may be someone behind that female ghost." Han Jiuchen said.
I nodded. I could clearly see the previous situation. Someone rescued the female ghost.
"So...why is all this happening?" I murmured to myself, "Is it because I signed a soul contract with you? Or have I committed too many sins in my previous life and am here to pay off my debts in this life?"
"Because you broke something." Han Jiuchen said.
I was suddenly startled, "What, what?"
Han Jiuchen took out his mobile phone and clicked on the photo album.
"Bracelet."
I held his hand and looked at the ordinary red bracelet in the picture.
The bracelet is hand-woven and has several small round jade pieces hanging on it.
I recognize the bracelet in the picture. It's the one that was torn off when I had a scuffle with someone in the subway a few days ago.
The bracelet was given to me by my second uncle, who used to like knitting these gadgets.
When we were young, during the saddest time for us, my second uncle even made up a lot of things and set up a street stall in front of the school.
Every once in a while, my second uncle will help me braid a new one.
Later, when my second uncle left, Su Xiao would make up one for me every now and then.
My bracelet was torn off that day, so I thought I would just wait for Su Xiao to come back and braid a new one for me, and I didn't think much about anything else.
If the problem is with the bracelet…
"My second uncle and Su Xiao! They... do they know something?!" I asked hurriedly, "Isn't it because I have a big background?"
"You're just too light-weighted and can easily attract unclean things," Han Jiuchen said. "Wearing a bracelet can help you block it."
"Don't lie to me. The ghost in Zhao Qing wants to kill me. It doesn't look like a simple and unclean thing." I felt like he was insulting my IQ.
"You're overthinking it," Han Jiuchen sneered, "A person with your physique is just the material they need."
"...Oh." Why am I still a little unconvinced.
Judging from Han Jiuchen's appearance, he didn't look like he would explain it to me honestly.
I simply changed the subject.
"Then what should I do in the future? Ask Lidya Su to make another bracelet?"
"Stop thinking about how to escape from me, just trust me." Han Jiuchen said, looking at the hospital door, "Someone is coming."
How dare I run away now? I wish he would guard me 24 hours a day so that I would feel safe.
