Three times married to Yama

Chapter 118 Small Things All Have a Cause

"It's so hot outside, you must be thirsty. Here, have some water," the middle-aged woman said sincerely.

Cheng Fei had never experienced much kindness in the past, so she was somewhat flattered by the middle-aged woman's goodwill.

"Thank you, big sister." Cheng Fei hurriedly took it, and under the middle-aged woman's gaze, she turned on the water and drank several mouthfuls.

However, not long after she finished drinking, she felt a dizzying sensation as the world spun around her. But by the time she realized something was wrong, she had already lost consciousness.

When Cheng Fei regained consciousness, her hands and feet were bound and she was being forcefully stuffed into a bread cart.

Although she regained some consciousness after drinking the spiked water, her body felt limp.

When she was shoved into the car, she slammed her body against the car with all her might, causing it to shake a few times.

Two men tied Cheng Fei up. One of them hit Cheng Fei hard with a long stick, almost breaking her arm. Although she was in a lot of pain, she did not give up calling for help and continued to ram her body against the car, though the impact was much smaller.

The bread truck was stopped at the intersection.

There is a gate control barrier at the intersection, guarded by an old man.

The old man noticed that the bread cart was shaking, so he didn't let it pass immediately but stopped it.

"What's in your car? It's been moving a lot, and quite vigorously," the old man said, moving closer to check.

The driver quickly got out of the car and stopped the old man. He smiled and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to the old man.

"A boss bought two large dogs, so I'm rushing to deliver them to him. Sir, you'd better not look at them; if you get bitten, you might lose a piece of your flesh."

Upon hearing that it was a large dog, the old man stopped approaching to check and took the cigarette from the man's hand.

"Fine, I won't watch the dog then."

The old man happily took the cigarettes and returned to the security booth. He had actually noticed that the van was using a fake license plate, but considering that it was only carrying two dogs, he let it pass.

There are surveillance cameras at the intersection, but before the car passed through, a little girl carrying a Pleasant Goat balloon walked by. The little girl stepped on a small stone and almost slipped, and the balloon flew out of her hand and flew upwards, blocking the view of the surveillance camera.

The van then drove Cheng Fei down a road of no return.

……

He Chu sighed helplessly and pointed to the people behind her, saying, "That little boy knocked Cheng Fei down, causing her to lose her bearings and turn off her phone."

"An old lady pointing the way, an old man letting the bread truck pass, and a little girl's balloon obscuring the surveillance camera."

"This is the connection between the six people and Cheng Fei."

After listening to He Chu's account, I finally understood the connection between them. Everyone's role in the whole thing was actually very small, but these small things, when put together, plunged Cheng Fei into a devilish abyss.

My expression hardened slightly. Since Cheng Fei's mental energy could curse these six people, her resentment must be immense. Those who truly harmed her were probably...

I asked He Chu, "What about the human traffickers?"

Now that so much has been uncovered, the human traffickers must have been found out as well.

Hearing my question, He Chu's expression became even more serious.

"They're all dead. A month ago, the old bachelor and his family who bought Cheng Fei were found drowned in a water tank. They were already rotting when they were found."

"And that small factory that tricked Cheng Fei before, many people died in the fire. What's strange is that the fire only burned down that one factory, while the other adjacent factories were completely unharmed."

"Lan Yin, do you think this is Cheng Fei's ghost seeking revenge?"

"I don't know," I replied. "I can't draw any conclusions without seeing it in person."

He Chu nodded in agreement, "Yes, as expected of you, meticulous."

I,"……"

At midnight, the East Suburbs Industrial Park was very quiet, with only a few factories occasionally having night shifts.

We arrived at the small factory that had been burned down. It was pitch black, just a bare frame, with gusts of cold wind blowing back and forth.

Wang Muzhi said, "On the surface, this is a factory, but behind the scenes, it is a den for trafficking women and children."

"They specifically target people who have few relatives or minor physical disabilities. Even if such people are sold, their families won't come looking for them, and physical disabilities make it difficult for them to escape."

"Cheng Fei stumbled upon this place by accident, like a lamb entering a tiger's den."

As I listened, I walked inside. Now, only a charred shell of the factory remained, but a strong sense of resentment permeated the entire place.

"It's so cold..." He Chu walked beside me and rubbed his goosebumps.

"Hmm." I nodded. "It's very yin here, and it is indeed a bit cold."

At that moment, Yan Jinyue walked silently to my side. Before I could even react, a black coat was draped over my shoulders.

"It's chilly at night, take good care of yourself," Yan Jinyue's deep voice rang out.

I,"……"

At this point, I was a little speechless, because Yan Jinyue's body was usually cold, and the clothes he wore looked like they had been pulled out of ice water.

I wasn't cold before, but I am now.

I gave a stiff smile. "Thank you."

He nodded slightly. "Of course."

He Chu and Wang Muzhi exchanged a glance, both seeing a bittersweet expression on each other's faces.

"Ew~~~"

They couldn't help but let out a soft "hmm." Wang Muzhi leaned closer to He Chu and whispered, "Xiao Chu, I'm starting to think about dating."

He Chu quickly moved a little further away from Wang Muzhi. "If you want to think about it, then think about it. Don't tell me. Anyway, I don't want to talk about it."

Wang Muzhi lowered his head and smiled, then said nothing more.

I quickly snapped out of my daze; now was not the time to ponder why Yan Jinyue had draped a coat over me.

I continued walking forward, and a cold wind swirled around me, its chill brushing against my calves and traveling upwards.

"Hehehehe, a beautiful girl is here~~" A sinister and slightly lewd male voice rang out beside me.

It seems to be a wandering ghost that has taken up residence here.

And this ghost even tried to crawl into my skirt.

A wave of disgust washed over me; this thing must be tired of living!

"I'm tired of being a ghost."

As Yan Jinyue's voice rang out, a semi-transparent phantom was seen being grabbed by Yan Jinyue.

I felt like he was going to crush that ghost in the next second.

"Yan Jinyue, don't move yet," I said immediately. Then I took out the talisman and asked him to put the wild ghost into the talisman.

Yan Jinyue stared coldly at the stray ghost. "What do you want this stray ghost for?"

"Keep it to feed the bodyguards," I replied.

Although my bodyguard never appreciates my efforts, as his owner, it's always good to have some food prepared for him, just in case.

Under Yan Jinyue's watchful gaze, I calmly collected the wild ghost into the talisman.
