Chapter Sixteen: Sister's Boudoir
Zhao Jing lowered her head and fiddled with her seat belt and said, "I'm too lazy to take you back to school. Let's go to my house and spend the night first." After saying that, without waiting for my answer, Zhao Jing started the car, kicked the accelerator and rushed out of the gate of the Public Security Bureau.
That's all it can do.
I thought Zhao Jing lived with her parents, and of course I knew her parents. I was worried about what her parents would think of her bringing me back with a sore and smelly body in the middle of the night, but after driving for a while, I found her
The direction I'm going in seems wrong.
Seeing me looking around at the street scene outside the car window, Zhao Jing said while driving: "I just rented a house near the law firm and will stay there tonight."
This is very embarrassing. She rents a house by herself, so it should be a single room.
"Who are you, Shasha?" Zhao Jing asked, seeing something was wrong in the atmosphere.
"Should I ask what the hell is wrong with me?" I said.
Zhao Jing smiled and scolded: "You brat, I just like your virtue of always being talkative! But since you didn't take the initiative to ask about her, the relationship shouldn't be deep."
I said: "...It's not that deep. In fact, he's just a kid I just met in the hospital."
Zhao Jing said: "I have something to tell you, don't be angry?"
I said, "Just tell me."
Zhao Jing said: "I, I came to save you so late because the little female ghost was knocked over by me as soon as she appeared in front of me, and then she was locked in the soul-locking pot."
I looked at the jade gourd on her car keychain and said, "Inside?"
Zhao Jing said: "I'm gone now."
I said, "Did you send her to Fengdu?"
The method of escorting captured ghosts to the underworld may not be thought of by normal people. In ancient times, cheap soul-locking pots were used to hand them over to the escort bureau, and then sent to Fengdu and other "border inspection stations" where the "gatekeepers" branched out.
.
Then the local "gatekeeper" will take the ghost out of the soul-locking pot and take it to the "border inspection station" to hand it over to the ghost officer.
In places where the escort industry is underdeveloped, the "gatekeepers" will also ask familiar salesmen to help.
Now, yes, many people should have guessed that express delivery...
Of course, they still have to send someone to personally escort those evil spirits with high magical powers.
As mentioned earlier, for new ghosts who have just died in the first seven years, the "gatekeeper" is also obliged to replace the ghost officer and guide them to the "border inspection station". How to guide them? The current general practice is to "gatekeeper" branches in various places
Collect new local ghosts for a period of time, put them into a large soul-locking pot, and then send someone or simply express them to the nearest "border inspection station".
If the mage dies in person and his soul is not qualified to stay in the human world, then his friends can send it to him personally if they want.
Next, Zhao Jing said to me: "Yes, when I transferred her to the special soul-locking pot for express delivery, she said she had something urgent to talk to me about. I didn't give her a second chance. This kind of ghost
I’ve seen too much.”
"Then what?" I thought to myself that it was Zhao Jing's fickle personality that caused me to be detained for a few more days.
"Then she was couriered to Fengdu. When she was escorted to the border inspection station, it was said that she was extremely emotional and shouted that the chief mage's grandson was in trouble and asked her to send a message to the 'gatekeeper', Fengdu Branch
My colleague first kept her and then sent the news back to me." After saying that, Zhao Jing glanced at me with ill intentions.
"I, I lied to her just to complete the mission." I lowered my head and said.
"You are right to say that. Your grandfather's grandfather was the chief mage. He is considered an authentic official." Zhao Jing teased, and then asked: "What kind of mission is it?"
I said, "I found out that old ghosts and humans have joined forces to form a criminal gang that defrauds new ghosts of their lifetime savings, so I want to help you solve the case and make meritorious deeds."
"Hey, you are so kind to your sister, what do you think?" Zhao Jing stretched out her right hand and patted my thigh.
She teased me not once or twice. I ignored her question and continued to ask: "So she has been sent to the underworld now?"
Zhao Jing said: "Looking at how calm you said it, I'm even more sure that you two have nothing to do with each other, haha."
I said: "Please answer my question!"
Zhao Jing said: "Oh, she also told the clues you mentioned. After I reported it to our director, the director thought she was still valuable. Our branch has not solved such a major case for a long time, so now she should be somewhere."
I’m rushing back inside the express box.”
While talking, the car drove to a community.
After entering the house Zhao Jing rented, I breathed a sigh of relief. It was an apartment with two bedrooms and one living room.
As long as I don't have to sleep in the same room with this weird aunt, I'll feel at ease.
Zhao Jing walked directly into the room on the right, took out a pair of large black pants and a white T-shirt and handed them to me. Then she walked into the room on the left and found a towel and a new toothbrush. She said, "My whole body stinks."
Hey, hurry up and take a shower! There is a disposable cup under the coffee table to use as a toothbrush cup."
"You have men's clothes, but I didn't hear that you have a boyfriend?" I asked, taking the towel and toothbrush.
"What, are you jealous?" Zhao Jingfei said, giving me a wink.
I ignored her, packed my clothes and other belongings, put on my slippers, took a cup, walked into the toilet and closed the door.
When I put the toothbrush and cup on the sink, I found that there were already two couples' toothbrush cups on it, and there were two towels hanging on the shelf next to it. I thought to myself, what does Zhao Jing's boyfriend look like? He should be much more handsome than me, ugh.
...
Then she thought about how to explain it if her boyfriend came to her at this time... No matter, let her solve this problem.
So I took off my clothes and threw them into the washing machine.
After setting up the washing machine and letting it run, I walked under the shower head in the bathroom and turned on the cold water valve to cool myself down from head to toe.
I soaked in the shower for five minutes and thought to myself, freedom is so good.
When I squinted to get the shampoo, I felt a piece of cloth. When I looked carefully, I found a pair of black pants on the basket where the shampoo and shower gel were placed.
I had never even been in love at that time. When I saw what my hand touched, I instantly blushed to the root of my neck.
"Oh, why didn't you close the curtain?" Zhao Jing opened the toilet door at some point, looked me up and down and shouted.
I was stunned for five or six seconds before I realized what I was doing and quickly stretched out my hand to pull up the curtain with a "Whoosh!"
"Hahahaha! It's not the same as when I was a kid~~" Zhao Jing laughed out of breath.
I shouted angrily: "What are you doing in here!"
Zhao Jing said: "I have been holding it in for a long time and want to go to the toilet."
Before I could respond, there was a "pop" sound, the toilet seat outside was lifted, and then there was a sound of flushing water.
Chapter completed!
