Helian Weiwei patted the youth’s shoulder. “Young man, the most important thing now is to catch the murderer. Someone committed a crime in front of you. Are you ok with that?”
The youth immediately withdrew his gaze from Baili Jiajue. Of course, he wasn’t ok with that!
Baili Jiajue looked at him with a cold smile. He opened his mouth and bit off the black glove on his left hand then said indifferently, “Get out of the way.”
Helian Weiwei once again grabbed a certain highness, and then met with Jing Zifeng’s probing gaze. “Didn’t I say so earlier? He’s my assistant.”
Jing Zifeng looked at her. That gaze was clearly saying “your assistant is not human”.
Helian Weiwei patted the youth’s shoulder. “Look, the most important thing now is to catch the murderer. Someone committed a crime in front of you. You’re not ok with that, are you?”
The youth immediately withdrew his gaze from Baili Jiajue.
Once the matter at hand was settled, he was going to question this man.
He ran off to investigate the murderer.
After thinking this through, Jing Zifeng just ran off and left his shikigami behind.
The small shikigami made from paper didn’t know what to say.
They seemed to be crying out to their master not to leave them behind.
Because this other young man here was clearly…clearly!!
“Hmm?” As if he sensed the thoughts of tiny paper men, Baili Jiajue smiled faintly as he bit off his other glove, and his eyes half-curved into a smile as he looked at them.
The shikigami immediately straightened their backs!
One by one, they raised their hands and placed them on their soft and flat faces to shut their mouths!
But they were crying inside. They wished their master took them along with him. Wasn’t he afraid that he might find his adorable shikigami gone by the time he came back?
This other young man was actually a great devil! SOBS!
They actually met the legendary great devil… just how unlucky were they…
Sensing the fear of the small paper shikigami, Helian Weiwei bent down and put them all into her sleeves. After that, she glanced at a certain highness as if to say, “Don’t scare them.”
Of course, Baili Jiajue didn’t care about these little guys. The only one who made him feel murderous was Master Zhang, who still didn’t know why he had suddenly knelt down.
His entire leg was in pain. After meeting the astonished gazes of the university students, he waved his hand to pretend that he was alright and said, “The ground is too slippery, if you’re not careful, you’ll fall. You guys should be careful.”
Helian Weiwei sneered, but didn’t expose him.
However, it seemed that there was still one person missing here!
Helian Weiwei suddenly looked around. “Wait a minute! Li Ya isn’t here either!”
Upon hearing Li Ya’s name, Master Zhang’s expression was no longer one of pain but horror.
Xiaoqing sneered, “Wow, this great Master Helian actually got nervous. Don’t worry, she was with me. She’s still in the bathroom next door.”
Helian Weiwei didn’t let her guard down because of her words and strode to the other bathroom stall. The door was locked from the inside and it couldn’t be opened at all.
“Miss Li Ya? Miss Li Ya, are you inside?”
Master Zhang couldn’t help but go forward to knock on the door.
No reply was heard.
Everyone’s heart immediately skipped a beat!
Could something have happened to Li Ya as well?

Helian Weiwei’s eyes sank and she wanted to kick the door open.
“I’m here.” Probably because she was afraid, Li Ya’s voice was trembling and hoarse. “I don’t dare to go out, it’s too scary. Without any lights on, I don’t dare to move at all.”
It seemed that the information about Li Ya on the internet was true.
It was said that although this witch could predict ghosts and calculate one’s luck, she was very afraid of the dark.
Once in the dark, her whole body would stiffen. She didn’t even dare to speak, much less move.
Master Zhang heaved a sigh of relief and said, “It’s okay. We’re all outside. Don’t be afraid. You can see everyone when you come out.”
“Okay.” A rustling sound came from the bathroom, like the sound of a skirt being zipped.
Helian Weiwei and Master Zhang could both hear it. The latter’s face felt a bit hot, goodness knows what he was imagining.
After a while, Li Ya opened the door with trembling hands and she was clearly very scared. Seeing that there was really someone outside the door, she immediately jumped into Master Zhang’s arms!
With a beauty in his arms, Heaven Master Zhang was naturally overjoyed. He reached out and patted her back. “Okay, okay, it’s okay. It’s all over.”
“I saw someone outside. She was dragging something with a lot of strength.” Li Ya trembled. “My sixth sense tells me that this person shouldn’t have appeared here, because she died a long time ago, by the sea…”
When the four college students heard this, their faces turned even paler!
Unlike Master Zhang, Miss Li Ya was very popular on the internet. She was very popular among the young people.
They had seen how she read fortunes on online livestreams. They were extremely accurate!
Now, even she was saying that the person who dragged Tongtong away was a dead person.
That proved that Wu Taotao really had come back.
Because at that time, the only person who died at the seaside was Wu Taotao!
What did she want to do by dragging Tongtong away?
When the four university students thought of this, their hearts once again felt a wave of goosebumps.
Xiaoqing endured her fear and wrung her hands. The gaze she used to look at Helian Weiwei became even more vicious. “What did I say earlier? If we’re going to believe someone, we should also believe Master Zhang. We shouldn’t believe in a swindler.”
Helian Weiwei ignored her. Whether it was Master Zhang or the very popular internet sensation Li Ya, these two people obviously didn’t have any ability to catch ghosts.
They just used the information they heard and the customer’s reactions they observed to guess what their clients were thinking about and make some speculations related to ghosts.
Some older ladies believed in their tricks.
Anyone who had read a psychology textbook would know that they were just some basic tricks.
Moreover, Li Ya was only good at reading fortunes online. She rarely read them on television.
The young people just thought that she was keeping a low profile.
They never thought about the real reason.
The reason why she did not read fortunes on television was probably because she was afraid that people would realize that she could not read fortunes at all.
In this day and age, even gamers who hosted their own channels got bashed easily on the internet.
So a fortune teller had to be even more careful of scrutiny.
This part made her similar to Master Zhang.
It’s just that the route that Li Ya took was more in line with the tastes of young people.
Her age, appearance, and temperament all held an advantage.
Helian Weiwei knew what these two people were thinking. They had originally planned to leave, and after they saw that the monk had been killed, they were clearly frantic and afraid that a ghost was really among them.
Later when Deputy Liang said that the road was blocked, they realized that they couldn’t leave, so they simply pretended to be able to predict the future, saying that they had sensed the presence of a malicious spirit. On one hand, it was to protect their own image, and on the other hand, it was to obtain the final reward offered by General Song.
