Chapter 86 Guilty heart
After returning from Jinquan Hotel for more than half a step, I felt lost, as if the world in front of me had turned into black and white.
The scene of Linlin being eaten raw by evil spirits is always lingering in front of my eyes. The pain is like millions of ants eating my heart, making me feel unbearable.
The provocative and ridiculous look of the evil spirit before leaving made me feel a deep sense of frustration. This feeling was unprecedentedly strong, almost ruining my confidence in practicing the Yin-Yang technique for many years.
What a powerful evil spirit! In front of him, I was as weak as an ant under his feet. He wanted to end my life at any time.
Before I saw the evil spirit this time, I had a glimmer of hope for defeating the evil spirit, but now, the only glimmer of hope has been shattered, and only despair and fear are left in my heart.
I know that with my current ability, even if I try my best, I can't shake the powerful evil spirit. Instead, I will be crushed out by him in minutes. This is why I can only hide in the cabinet as a turtle with my head when I see Linlin being eaten by him.
But no matter what, Linlin died in front of me, but I did nothing, which made me feel deeply guilty. Until now, she is still like a ruthless knife cutting my heart with one knife and one knife.
My heart was ashes and lost my soul. I didn't even know how I got back to more than half a step. As soon as I walked in more than half a step, I fell on the chair, as if I had no strength anymore. Linlin's frown and smile suddenly appeared in my mind, so I could no longer control myself, and tears surged out of my eyes like a dam.
I cried and regretted it very much. If I had plucked up the courage to fight with the evil spirits at that time, I would still not be able to save Linlin's fate of being eaten. I might not have felt so guilty at this moment.
Unfortunately, there are not so many ifs in this world. When things happen, they happen. No one can go back to the past...
Suddenly, a burst of natural laughter sounded in my ears. Such a pleasant laugh would be no one else except Sun Yue and Ye Meng.
I quickly calmed down my emotions, but Sun Yue came over and noticed my strangeness. He asked in surprise: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing," I forced a smile.
"I said nothing," Sun Yue put his face over and stared at my face and looked at me carefully: "Brother, you shouldn't have cried just now, right?"
"Sun Yue, there's nothing," I continued to deny: "I just came back from outside. It's windy outside today, so my eyes may have blown some sand in."
I didn't know how to talk to Sun Yue about Linlin for a moment, and she was eaten by evil spirits. If I talk about such a miserable thing to Sun Yue, I can't guarantee that Sun Yue won't be disgusted if she hears it.
"Oh, that's it." Sun Yue replied softly, with the expression on her face skeptical. After all, she is my sister, and my little details cannot escape her eyes.
"Sun Heng," Ye Meng also asked at this time: "Didn't you go out with someone to investigate the case? How did you do it?"
"Yes, brother, what case did that person ask you to investigate?" Sun Yue seemed to be interested in this.
"A haunted incident occurred in a hotel, and the hotel owner asked me to help him solve it," I tried to cheer myself up: "But what I never expected was that this case was actually related to the case by the beach."
"No, there is such a coincidence in the world?" Ye Meng and Sun Yue shouted in surprise at the same time.
I didn't plan to tell them so soon, but since I've said it, I'd better tell them all. Anyway, this thing is in my bottleneck period, so maybe they can give me some useful advice.
So, I told them all about what happened today without reservation, including the part when Linlin was eaten by evil spirits. For some reason, I told this and felt much more comfortable.
As I thought, the part when Linlin was eaten by a evil spirit, it really made them disgusted, and she looked like she was covering her chest and was about to vomit. I thought, if they had seen Linlin being eaten by a evil spirit, they might have spit out all the bitter galls.
They were even more indignant about the evil spirits. I think if they were there at that time, they would not have endured humiliation like me, but would have to rush out to fight with the evil spirits even if they fought their lives.
"Brother, why don't you go out and fight that evil spirit? If you take action, will that Linlin be fine?" Sun Yue said with a frown, but she seemed to overestimate my ability.
"I want to save her, too," I said sadly: "But I am too weak, I... am not the opponent of the evil spirit..."
"Brother, you have never beat him, how do you know that you are not as good as him?" Sun Yue pursed her lips and expressed her incomprehension.
"The evil spirit I encountered this time is different from before," I clenched my fists and said, "He is too powerful. My magic weapon does not work at all in front of him, so..."
As I said that, I remembered Linlin's tragic death because of herself, and felt a deep feeling of guilt and pain in my heart.
"Sun Heng, I think you did nothing wrong," he suddenly heard Ye Meng say, "If you lose to your opponent, you have to force yourself to stand up, but it's just a waste of your life. It's not worth it."
This sentence may not sound like anything, but now is the time when I am most confused. It really touched me to be able to hear Ye Meng understand me like this.
"Ye Meng, you think I am too..." I was so moved that I couldn't speak.
"Sun Yue, think about it," Sun Yue looked at Sun Yue and showed a warm smile as sunrise: "If your brother took action rashly, can you still see your brother now?"
Sun Yue thought silently, and seemed to think Ye Meng was right, so he walked to me with apologies and said, "Brother, it's all my fault. He always speaks without thinking. You won't blame me, right?"
"How could it be?" I gently stroked Sun Yue's shoulders and smiled calmly, "You are my sister, and I can't rescue Linlin, so I feel very sad."
"That evil spirit is so hateful," Sun Yue's face was filled with anger: "Brother, let's work together to eliminate it, just like destroying the Concubine Xu."
"That's right," Ye Meng heard Sun Yue say this, and her face was filled with a heroic look: "As long as we are united, nothing can defeat us, Sun Heng, what do you think?"
I also want to kill this evil spirit and take revenge for Linlin who died tragically. But in front of the powerful evil spirit, I know that my skills are not as good as others, so I am discouraged and depressed. Now when I hear Sun Yue and Ye Meng's words of encouragement, the little flame in my heart was like someone added fuel, and suddenly burned again.
"If I go to deal with this evil spirit, you will definitely help me, right?" I glanced at the two beautiful girls and asked extremely seriously.
"Of course," Sun Yue said with a high apology: "Brother, I have a share of it if I have more than half a step. If my grandfather is still alive, he must have the same meaning."
"Well, you're right." I nodded and decided to share with Sun Yue no matter what happened in the future, because it was indeed as Sun Yue said, grandpa was not left alone for me in this half-step, but Sun Yue and I both had a share.
"Sun Heng, look better," Ye Meng smiled indifferently, pure and dustless, as beautiful as Xianhe in the pool: "Linlin is dead. All we can do now is to avenge her and destroy this evil spirit as soon as possible, so as not to harm people everywhere."
What Ye Meng said was exactly what I was thinking, so I nodded repeatedly, gritted my teeth and said, "Yes, I will definitely let this evil spirit die without a burial place. I will avenge Linlin, I swear!"
After hearing Ye Meng's words, my heart suddenly became brighter, as if the sunlight shone into the dim room, instantly making me feel that the world was full of hope.
I have to say that since Ye Meng came to me more than half a step, my life has changed a lot. She is like my lucky star, bringing me laughter when I was the most unhappy and bringing me hope when I was the most down and out.
Although I don’t say it, in my heart, Ye Meng has long become like Sun Yue, one of the most important people in my life.
Thank you very much, Ye Meng!
I really want to say this to her in person, but because I am too familiar with it, it is difficult to say it, so I keep locking it somewhere in my heart.
With the encouragement of Sun Yue and Ye Meng, my mood finally became less uncomfortable. They were right. I don’t need to think about anything else now. Just focus on dealing with this evil spirit.
What you have to face is finally faced. Instead of escaping, it is better to face difficulties!
The next day, as soon as I got up, I saw Liu Jindong running to my half step, and wiped the hot sweat from his face with a hand towel.
As soon as he saw me, Liu Jindong said with confusion: "Master Sun, when did you leave my hotel yesterday? I won't tell me no matter how I leave?"
I felt annoyed, and I felt embarrassed to say that when I heard the ghost crying, I was so scared that I ran away and left me alone on the floor.
But when he saw that he was old, he was embarrassed to have an attack, so he smiled calmly and said, "I checked it and found nothing unusual, so I left by myself."
"Is there really nothing?" Liu Jindong looked frightened: "But I clearly heard a woman's crying..."
I thought to myself that since Linlin has been eaten by the evil spirit, I should not cause trouble anymore, so as not to invite those warlocks to the hotel to open an orchard in the future, which will make it difficult for me to be at peace.
So he said, "Boss Liu, you heard it wrong. I checked it. It was not the woman's crying, but a window didn't come right away. The wind blew the window screen, and it sounded like a woman was crying."
"It's really... it's true?" Liu Jindong was surprised when he heard this. If there were no ghosts, then his hotel would be free from the bad reputation of haunted.
"Well," I said with a righteous expression: "If you send an announcement to the media, just say that it is just a misunderstanding, and then sort out the haunted floors of the hotel and reopen them."
"Thank you, Master Sun." Liu Jindong walked over, held my hand, and said with gratitude.
Linlin is no longer in that room, and the evil spirit should not come back, so I dare to say such words, hoping that Liu Jindong's hotel will be resurrected from the dead.
I suddenly remembered something and said to Liu Jindong: "Boss Liu, I have something to ask for, but I don't know if I can agree?"
When Liu Jindong heard this, he said, "Master Sun, you have helped me so much. Even if you have something to do, I, Liu, will definitely spare no effort as long as I can."
I smiled and said, "Check your Jinquan Hotel. Over the past month, has there been a female guest named Linlin, and then notify the police that the owner of the female corpse by the beach is her."
After hearing this, Liu Jindong's face changed and Qiqi Aiai said, "Master Sun means that a murder occurred in my hotel?"
"Is there a murder case?" I said with a cold face: "Leave this to the police for investigation. I just want the police to inform the girl's family, so that I will not even know that my daughter has died."
"Then... well," Liu Jindong nodded and said, "I'll do this when I go back."
I know that this incident will have an impact on his hotel, but for Linlin, I can only do this. I hope Linlin's family can bury her body and live a happy and happy life in another world.
