Having devoted myself to guiding souls, I was surrounded by them after my death.

It seems they really don't know.

Moreover, the fact that they have no base of operations means that the members of the Prosperous Flower Society, like her and Wu Hui, are scattered across various regions and professions.

Jiang Liu is right, it has a very strong penetrating power.

Chen Shi continued to ask:

"Tell me, what is your purpose in giving birth to evil spirits?"

"Oh--"

Wenjie took a deep breath and began banging her head against the wall.

"Control her!"

"I come."

Su Yining immediately stepped forward, grabbed Wenjie from behind, and controlled her head. At the same time, Chen Shi moved the rope from her neck to her upper body for better control.

"Purpose...to unseal, using the resentment of the evil spirit to accelerate the resurgence of the top-tier evil spirit."

Accelerating the resurgence of a top-tier malevolent spirit!?

Chen Shi's heart sank. Jiang Liu had said that there were many top-level evil spirits in Nanhai Town, and that they had recently shown signs of resurgence.

It was indeed related to the Flower Festival.

But this tuning fork effect is so rigid! It's just a one-to-one answer, can't you say more?

Wenjie rolled her eyes, about to break free from the intrusion.

time is limited.

Chen Shi glanced at Su Yining and asked:

Do you remember this girl?

"Uh……"

Wenjie struggled to answer:

"I don't remember."

As she finished speaking, a hint of disappointment flashed clearly in Su Yining's crimson eyes.

Chen Shi immediately comforted her, "Don't worry, senior. She may not know what happened three years ago. Now that it's been confirmed that your death is directly related to the Prosperous Flower Association, there's definitely hope if we keep investigating."

"Hmm!" Su Yining came back to her senses, and hope rekindled in her eyes.

Meanwhile, as Wenjie struggled, the collar of her nurse's uniform popped off, and Su Yining peered inside, spotting a familiar tattoo on her back.

A three-faced evil spirit with a face on each of its left, center, and right sides.

“Junior, she also has tattoos, it’s that three-faced demon,” she reminded him.

"A three-faced evil spirit, that's it!"

Chen Shi immediately pressed for an answer:

"What is your relationship with this three-faced evil spirit? Where is it now?"

"Oh--!"

Upon hearing this, Wenjie's disoriented eyes instantly turned to terror, her lips trembled, and she suppressed her voice with gurgling sounds.

She is resisting.

"Speak quickly!" Chen Shi shouted, while taking out a tuning fork.

For the sake of information, he didn't mind shaking it again.

"it……"

Finally, after a violent spasm, Wenjie was just about to speak...

Suddenly, the scalpel that had been kicked away rose up as if it had automatically locked onto its target, and in the blink of an eye it flashed in front of her, cleanly and swiftly slicing across her throat!

"!"

Chen Shi and Su Yining were both shocked. Everything happened so suddenly that they didn't have time to react before blood gushed from Wenjie's throat.

"That scalpel!" Su Yining was startled and turned to look, only to see that the scalpel was stained with blood.

In her arms, Wenjie struggled for a while before finally dying.

From the side, Zhang Chengkang's weak voice came:

"This scalpel is a magical artifact, and its effect is probably bound to a certain keyword. Whenever the original owner wanted to leak certain information, he would kill people to silence them."

He sat in the corner, leaning against the cold brick wall, his face pale.

"I've heard of this kind of magical artifact. It ignores distance and suppression, and anyone who encounters a keyword will die. This nurse was silenced."

"I never expected there to be such a magical artifact!"

Chen Shi looked at Wenjie's body without feeling any regret.

Anyway, he never intended to keep this menace around, but unfortunately he didn't get any more information.

Speaking of which, elite man, you're still not dizzy? Your physical fitness is amazing!

Chen Shi calmed down and began to think...

Should we trigger a death regression through suicide and ask Wenjie more questions?

No, with the tuning fork's question and answer, Wenjie told everything she knew. As for the three-faced evil spirit, as long as she asked, the scalpel would ignore any consequences and inevitably silence her, even if she did it again, the result would be the same.

"It's alright. At least now we know that all the recent changes in Nanhai City stem from the 'Blooming Flowers Society.' As for their purpose... it's those suppressed top-tier evil spirits."

Chen Shi's expression did not soften much.

The situation is more serious than we thought; we have to tell Jiang Liu.

Fortunately, the thread is longer now.

"The Prosperous Flowers Society... indeed has a powerful force behind it all."

He looked at Su Yining:

"Senior, are you alright?"

"Hmm? I'm fine."

Su Yining blinked her beautiful eyes and grinned: "At least I gained something, so the trip wasn't a complete waste."

Optimistic as always.

However... it might just be a facade of optimism.

Chen Shi retrieved the sling, found some bandages and disinfectant, and gave Zhang Chengkang a simple bandage.

"Thank you for your hard work, elite man."

"You're welcome, junior who's into older men."

"..."

After bandaging the body, Zhang Chengkang said, "You all go do what you need to do. Don't worry about the body; the ferryman will handle the logistics."

"Row."

Chen Shi got up, just about to call Jiang Liu to report, when he saw Su Yining staring blankly at the end of the corridor.

"Senior, what's wrong?" he asked.

"There's always been a feeling..."

Su Yining pouted and muttered:

"I think I left something here?"

"Did you leave something here?"

Chen Shi immediately became alert, and a guess came to mind.

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and began to carefully perceive his surroundings.

Jiang Liu could use his intuition to see that he was possessed by an evil spirit, and he could also tell at a glance that there was a problem with Wu Hui's reagent... Similarly, now that his intuition has been enhanced, he should also be able to sense something through it.

All I could see was darkness. The faint sounds of voices from the hospital drifted through the air, occasionally punctuated by the chirping of cicadas. The air was thick with the smell of disinfectant.

There was also a faint fragrance of crape myrtle blossoms emanating from nearby.

Suddenly, everything fell silent, and a dotted line drifted past my eyes.

"found it!"

Chen Shi successfully captured the body under the bed in ward 404.

"Senior, over here."

He led Su Yining back to room 404. The bed was empty; no patient was lying there anymore, but there were slight dents in the bedding.

Chen Shi lay down on the ground and saw a wooden box in the center of the bed.

"No, I can't reach it..."

"I'm here, I'm a ghost, and I'm very flexible."

Su Yining patted her chest and started digging under the bed, leaving most of her body exposed, her waist arched and her skirt swaying.

Chen Shi tactfully looked out the window.

The weather is really nice today.

"Oh! Gotcha!"

Su Yining took out the wooden box, tossed her long hair with a flourish, and didn't have a speck of dust on her body.

As expected of a ghost.

"So what is this?" Chen Shi leaned closer.

"You'll see when you look!"

Su Yining opened the wooden box.

In an instant, both the human and the spirit stood frozen in place, their backs stiff.

After a long while, Chen Shi moved to the side, rubbed his eyes with some suspicion, and then glanced at it again...

Inside the wooden box was a hand.

One human hand!

In the ward, both the older male student and the hot female student remained silent.

"Junior..." After a long while, Su Yining finally spoke.

"Ah."

"I gotta Feeling."

"what?"

"This feels like...my hand."

"Brilliant."

Chapter 40 Vague Memories

"This feels like my hand..."

In room 404, Su Yining stared blankly at the hand in the wooden box.

It feels like when you were a child and lost a toy. You don't know where you lost it, and you can't remember every detail of the toy. But when you see a dusty rag doll, you still remember how you used to carry it around everywhere as a child.

Beside him, Chen Shi took a deep breath.

First, Zhang Chengkang's head suddenly flew out when they reached the door of the water supply room, and now, upon opening the wooden box, they suddenly saw their senior's severed hand.

Fortunately, he has a strong ability to learn.
