“If you don’t have anything else to say, I’m leaving.”

Ming Shu prepared to go.

When she reached the door, Kong Jianguo’s voice sounded again. “How did you discover it was me?”

Ming Shu turned back and Kong Jianguo stared at her insidiously.

He didn’t think he had left any traces. Those cops had been investigating for so long without a clue, but how did she find him?

“I didn’t.” Ming Shu revealed an innocent face and said honestly, “I asked someone else.”

“Someone else?” Who?

Ming Shu seemed to remember something and corrected her words slowly. “Oh, sorry, it’s not someone else, it was a ghost.”

Kong Jianguo’s eyes widened.

“Don’t you believe it?” Ming Shu folded her arms over her chest with her lips slightly arched. “Just think about it. You did it very carefully and left no clues, who would be able to know it was you? But ghosts are different. You can’t see them, so do you watch out for them? Actually, they might be right next to you when you kill someone...”

From his surrender to his confession, Kong Jianguo never had much emotion in his eyes. He remained cool and cruel.

But now he seemed scared.

“Ghosts...”

He struggled to utter a word.

He looked at Ming Shu with strange eyes.

As if he was looking at something rare.

It was also like seeing something scary.

“What do you know?” Ming Shu took two steps forward.

Kong Jianguo burst out laughing.

The voice lingered in the empty interrogation room, sounding very strange.

“The art of managing ghosts, the rumor turned out to be true, hahahahahaha. I’ll admit that I’m out of luck and you got me.”

The art of managing ghosts?

She could at best communicate with ghosts.

Besides, the ghosts in this world had no aggressivity at all.

So how would she manage them?

“What do you know?”

Kong Jianguo measured her several times with his sinister eyes. “Don’t you know?”

Ming Shu didn’t answer.

She wore a faint smile on her face. Kong Jianguo didn’t know what she meant by that.

When there was no change in one’s mood from beginning to end...

It was not the commonly seen expressionless face, the person just hid their emotions.

Just like the girl before him now.

The way she smiled was like a machine. Her tone was changing, but her smile, from beginning to end... never changed.

This girl was more terrible than he could have imagined.

Kong Jianguo inexplicably shivered, and he couldn’t help but say, “I’ve only heard rumors. It’s said that some people in this world can control ghosts, and they’re skilled in the art of managing ghosts.”

He knew this from rumors.

And he didn’t know if it was true.

But such anecdotes were always the talk of the town.

Ming Shu left the interrogation room. Gu Zhi was leaning outside with his head lowered slightly. His broken hair covered his eyes.

Ming Shu noticed that he had streaked his hair with gray; the hairstyle and the color made him look even more dazzling than those stars on the screen.

“You lose.” Ming Shu offered a bright smile.

Gu Zhi: “...” F**k. She must have cheated!

Absolutely!

Definitely!

How could anyone be smarter than me.

“Kong Jianguo came to turn himself in by himself.” Gu Zhi tried to make a death struggle. “It has little to do with you.”

Ming Shu: “Why don’t you go in there and ask him why he came to surrender himself?”

Gu Zhi: “You went out of line.”

Ming Shu: “Oh, so what? I’m not in your system.”

I went out of line, so what? Will you remove me or arrest me for that?

Gu Zhi: “...” You make so much sense that I just can’t refute you.

F**k. If I’d known she would cheat, I wouldn’t have bet with her!

Gu Zhi took a deep breath.

He breathed out slowly.

Deep breaths.

Calm down.

I can’t strangle my own wife.

If so I won’t have a wife.

Calm!

I can still win!

After finishing his psychological reconstruction, Gu Zhi continued, “Okay, then, what do you want?”

Ming Shu crooked her fingers at him.

Gu Zhi gave her several looks before leaning over slowly.

Ming Shu whispered something in his ear.

“You...”

Gu Zhi looked as if he were struck by lightning.

His fingers trembled in anger.

“You proposed the bet yourself, Captain Gu, are you going to deny it now?”

Do you think I can’t torture you, little goblin?

Funny!

Gu Zhi’s expression changed dramatically.

After a moment, he sneered. “I’ll pick you up on Saturday!”

Then Gu Zhi left with a black face.

A policeman passing by looked puzzled. Why was this big mister angry again?

Who pissed him off?

The others were also puzzled. They didn’t offend him.

The case was closed like this. As Ming Shu walked out of the police station, she received a dinner invitation from the lord female protagonist.

It had been so long...

The lord female protagonist was so busy!

The time was set for Saturday.

Because of an appointment with Gu Zhi in the evening, Ming Shu changed the time to noon.

Only the female protagonist and the stupid little kid came.

“Sister, Sister, we’re here!”

The kid waved at Ming Shu.

The kid’s mother also stood up with a smile on her face. “I’m sorry, Miss Qian, I haven’t had time recently, and I couldn’t treat you to dinner until now...”

“It’s fine, we are here now.” I don’t mind eating early or late.

I’m easy to treat.

The female protagonist smiled a little embarrassedly. “Take a seat, please.”

“Sister, sit here.” Hang Zichen was small and it was rather funny that he tried to pull out the chair for Ming Shu. Even the waiter behind them couldn’t help laughing.

The waiter took the initiative to help him.

Hang Zichen wanted to sit beside Ming Shu, but was pulled back by Hang Hang.

Hang Zichen pouted and was a little unhappy.

Hang Hang... namely the female protagonist passed the menu to Ming Shu first. She ordered for Hang Zichen and herself after Ming Shu had ordered her own meal.

After waiting for the waiter to leave, Hang Hang said, “I really need to thank you for last time, thankfully Zichen is fine, otherwise I don’t know what I would do.”

“You won’t meet someone like me every time.” Do you know that? Your lovely boy is just like a sweet pastry in the eyes of human traffickers.

Not everyone is as kind as me.

“It was my fault.” Hang Hang sounded very regretful. “That afternoon Zichen was angry with me and didn’t eat anything, later he was hungry and got out of the car by himself...”

Hang Hang thanked Ming Shu again, and then their food came.

“Sister, drink this, it’s so tasty.”

“Sister, this is delicious...”

“Sister, this dessert tastes great...”

Hang Zichen’s voice sounded throughout their meal.

After dinner, they said goodbye to each other. Hang Hang smiled and said, “Zichen seldom likes a person so much, Miss Qian, so if there are any opportunities, we can hang out together.”

Ming Shu: “...” Not exactly. The kid must want to grab my snacks.

...

At night...

Gu Zhi parked his car outside the 13th Month Firm.

He looked at the old building. Is this where she lives? Is it habitable? Is this place for people?

How could his wife live in such a place...

Ah, pah!

She should live in a place like this!

Who made her cheat in the bet!

Gu Zhi leaned over his steering wheel. I don’t pity her, not at all. Just think about what she did, am I not particularly angry?

Gu Zhi found his anger again and then made the call reluctantly.

The girl quickly appeared at the side of the car, carrying a large bag, and got into the car.

“What’s this?” He stared warily at the big bag, as if trying to see something else from it.

“It’s a gift for you.”

“...”

Gu Zhi thought he’d better not ask. He silently started the car and prepared like he was going to drive a race, driving all the way to Happiness City.

The manager was right at the doorway. Seeing Gu Zhi, he ran over obediently. “Mister Gu, is there anything we can do for you, again?”

“Nothing.” Then Gu Zhi asked coldly, “Which room is He Ren’nian in?”
