"By the way, speaking of which, how did you manage to organize my study materials back then?"
Chen Shi suddenly remembered that his phone screen was off when he was in the library, but Su Yining had not only seen his study materials, but had also organized them...
"That... I don't know how I did it either."
Su Yining thought for a moment and said:
"Isn't there a saying that ghosts have unique bioelectricity? They're probably the same thing as those things. I can retrieve data and content from electronic products."
"They actually have this ability."
Chen Shi made a mental note of it.
The ability to search for electronic products without barriers, similar to the ability to freely enter and exit the cage, can be very useful in certain situations.
"So, junior, you've finished introducing yourself. What's your reply?"
Su Yining smiled gently, her hair fluttering in the summer breeze.
"Since we've already come this far..."
Chen Shi raised his little finger and said:
"Let's cooperate, senior. I'll touch the world for you, help you find corpses and memories, and you'll be my weapon, helping me to guide souls."
Seeing Chen Shi raise his little finger, Su Yining was taken aback at first, then smiled and hooked her little finger in return:
"make a deal!"
Chen Shi himself never expected that at the age of 20, he would make a pinky promise with a ghost senior who had been dead for three years.
But it seems that after saying all that, the Ghost Senior still hasn't explained why she beat up those evil spirits...
Chapter 11 A New Premonition
After saying goodbye to Su Yining, Chen Shi finished his day of classes and dragged his tired body home.
Nanyang Technological University has student dormitories, but an additional accommodation fee applies.
Although he still has some savings, he feels that he should save money wherever possible, and that it is more comfortable to live at home.
Moreover, since the appearance of the three malevolent spirits, his father died and his mother is still hospitalized and unconscious. He has successfully lived the life of a novel protagonist who has no sister, a house, and lives alone.
"Click".
Turning the door lock, the moment Chen Shi returned home, he practically collapsed onto the sofa like a lump of mud.
"I always feel like I'm living a day that feels like 36 hours..."
He picked up his phone, and in his contact list, which stretched out to the bottom, two unusual names had appeared.
Su Yining
【Jiangliu】
Ever since the appearance of the three malevolent spirits, he has been labeled as a jinx, and his relatives around him are all eager to sever ties with him.
Because he has the ability to see ghosts, he doesn't usually develop a social circle, and he can count the number of his friends on one hand.
After all, there were several times when he saw a spirit crawling onto the other person's neck in the middle of a conversation. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, his expression was still very unnatural, to the point that the other person felt that he was provoking him.
Okay, Chen Shi admits that his expression when he first saw Ling was indeed like he had choked on his own poop, otherwise he wouldn't have been so scared that he wore sunglasses.
No wonder the senior questioned why he "actually has friends".
Just then, a "ding-dong" sound came from WeChat, and a friend request popped up.
The ID is simple and straightforward: [Su Yining].
A gray bear emoji was sent to me through a friend:
"Oh! Junior, you really can see my messages."
"What do you mean? Can't others see this?" Chen Shi replied.
"Yes, I tried adding other people with this account, but no one could see it."
I see……
Chen Shi understood: Su Yining was less a ghost and more a person who had severed her connection with the world of the living.
Only people like him and Jiang Liu, who have the ability to see ghosts, can see her and have contact with her.
"By the way, senior, could you keep an eye on the swimming pool for me these next few days? Let me know if you see anyone suspicious."
Chen Shi told Su Yining about his and Jiang Liu's guesses, and the latter replied immediately:
"Sure, I have nothing else to do anyway."
After chatting with Su Yining for a few minutes, Chen Shi took out Jiang Liu's business card, searched for the number, and an account called "Jiang Ling Qin Hang" popped up.
It seems that's the case.
I sent a friend request, and the other person accepted it half an hour later.
Jiang Liu: Oh, you've made it home alive?
Chen Shi: Senior Sister Jiang, why do you sound a little disappointed?
Jiang Liu: Slander! I worked overtime specifically for you.
A few seconds later, Jiang Liu's messages continued to pop up.
Jiang Liu: By the way, about the incident at the swimming pool. You're more mobile at Nanjing University, so keep a close eye on things these next few days, but if you encounter any suspicious individuals, be sure to tell me immediately.
Chen Shi: Senior Sister Jiang, are you worried about me?
Jiang Liu: Nonsense. Since I've taken you as my junior brother, I have to take responsibility for you. If we're not mistaken, the waters on the other side are extremely deep, and their strength is unpredictable. Someone capable of actively nurturing a malevolent spirit is no ordinary person. You only have a spiritual weapon; you're no match for them.
Jiang Liu: So, if anything happens, be sure to let me know in time. Don't rush in like in anime, shouting about friendship and justice, okay?
Chen Shi: Okay, Senior Sister Jiang.
Jiang Liu: Okay, I'll stop chatting now, I'm busy.
Chen Shi: Are you busy ferrying souls? Working overtime so late, being a top-level ferryman is really tough...
Jiang Liu:? ? ?
Jiang Liu: What are you babbling about? I'm putting on a face mask, so it's inconvenient for me to hold up my phone.
"..."
At night, Chen Shi washed up and lay down on the bed, surrendering his body to the blankets.
Spirit ferryman, ghost senior, top-level ferryman, and the mastermind behind the creation of evil spirits.
So much happened that day.
There's also death regression.
Why did this ability suddenly awaken? Could it be that, like the ability to see ghosts, the ability of "death rewind" has existed for a long time but was never discovered?
There are too many doubts; I simply can't figure it out.
Even so, what he has to do remains unchanged—deal with that three-faced evil spirit.
Therefore, he must continue to guide the spirits, keep an eye on suspicious individuals in Nandali, find the loose end of the thread, and pull out the whole thread.
If we continue investigating, we might uncover information about the three-faced evil spirit.
Besides that, I also helped Su Yining find her body.
While organizing his next tasks, Chen Shi drifted off to sleep.
Nothing happened for the next two days.
He continued to go to school and attend classes as usual, but his daily routine now included more walking and observation on campus. Su Yining would often appear silently beside him and start chatting with him.
However, they only talked about trivial things, such as what movies were being released recently, or how many stray cats had appeared at the school.
Su Yining still didn't talk much about her own affairs. It was unclear whether it was because she genuinely couldn't remember, or simply because she didn't want to talk about it.
Oh right, and there was also the senior from the club who suddenly came to him with a pack of instant noodles and a bottle of iced tea... to ask him to be his apprentice?
She said she wanted to learn from him how to get to know the Qi-controlling older sister, I don't know what suddenly made her so impulsive.
"Nothing particularly noteworthy was discovered."
That night, Chen Shi lay in bed, twirling Jiang Liu's business card in his hand.
There were no suspicious persons, no new evil spirits, and everything was unusually calm.
"Could I be overthinking it?"
Chen Shidu began to have some doubts, wondering if he and Jiang Liu were overthinking things.
He went back to sleep, still suspicious.
He slept especially soundly that night.
"DiDi... DiDi..."
The next morning, Chen Shi was woken up by his alarm clock. He felt a terrible headache, like a hangover, and his eyelids were unusually heavy.
What time is it?
He had a bird's nest on his head and reached out to touch his phone.
As I groped around, a familiar sensation came through.
"!"
Chen Shi instantly woke up and sat up straight in bed.
Looking towards the head of the bed, I saw an envelope lying quietly beside my pillow.
A plain white envelope, without a signature.
It is a prophetic faith!
Chen Shi's eyes lit up, and he immediately began to pray in his heart:
Please, Master Xin, don't let it be someone else dying...
Given the credibility of the prophetic letter, Chen Shi prayed devoutly for a while before opening it.
On the pure white letter paper, a line of black text was clearly written:
[Nanhai City University: Massive student poisoning deaths]
"Fine... this time I won't say who died, I'll just say a whole bunch of them died."
Chen Shi's heart sank. He immediately jumped out of bed, changed his clothes, and rushed to school.
"A large number of students have died from poisoning... What exactly happened?"
He hailed a shared bike, sped along the sidewalk, and almost drifted to a stop at the school gate, rushing into the campus at top speed.
Chen Shi was covered in sweat. He looked around and saw that the school was still bustling with activity. Camphor trees and sycamore trees were neatly arranged, and sunlight filtered through the leaves, dappling the ground. The clean streets and wide green lawns exuded a strong campus atmosphere.
Rows of teaching buildings stand side by side, the campus is elegant, students walk around in twos and threes, and some can be seen taking selfie sticks to shoot short videos.
There were no signs of death.
Thankfully, it hasn't happened yet.
Chen Shi's mind raced. He knew the precognitive information couldn't be wrong; something was bound to happen at Nanjing University today.
It can cause widespread death, and it's poisoning...
Just then, several students wearing vests and carrying basketballs walked out of the playground.
Chen Shi, with his sharp eyes, noticed that they were also carrying a bucket of tap water.
"Honestly, they didn't even give us a heads-up about the water being cut off."
"Yeah, I was planning to take a shower and catch up on sleep after training."
Water outage!
Chen Shi immediately grasped the key words.
