Chapter 5 Going Home
Headache, dizziness, weakness!

After Sang Que woke up, he began to dry heave, his whole body went limp and he broke out in cold sweats, his energy drained out.

This feeling was even more exhausting and uncomfortable than after running a marathon. She couldn't use any strength in her body, especially her head, which hurt as if someone was chiseling it.

After taking a few breaths, Sang Que held his head and looked around, then froze.

"I'm back!"

It was still Qin Lu's house, still the dark, dirty, fly-filled yard. Sang Que checked himself carefully and found that it was still the original one.

When I raised my wrist, the sports bracelet that had malfunctioned before returned to normal. It was now 1:30 in the morning.

Sang Que felt something in the pocket and took it out. It was the purse that Ming Zhang had searched and the blue book that she had put in her sleeve. They were all there.

What I just experienced was not a dream, it was not fake!
Sang Que's mind went blank for a moment, and then she spread out her right hand. The talisman money and the red rope were gone, but there was still a faint trace on her palm, with the outline of the talisman money.

Pulling up her sleeves, the dark blue handprint on her wrist had disappeared. Was the ghost child destroyed by her?

Wiping the blood from under his eyes, Sang Que staggered to Qin Lu's room to take a look. The body was still there, but the gloomy atmosphere in the whole yard had faded a lot.

She picked up her own mobile phone from the ground. The broken screen did not affect her ability to use it.

Sang Que called the police with trembling hands, left the yard and waited outside.

Sitting on the steps outside the door, her eyes were still stinging, making her vision a little blurry. She raised her hand to rub them, and suddenly saw a white-haired old lady appear at the door of the house across the street.

When she put her hand down, there was no one there, only the street lights flickering.

The lock on the door of that house was rusty, as if no one had lived there for many years.

Sang Que didn't dare to think too much, and subconsciously stopped herself from thinking too much, because when she thought of the existence of evil spirits, she still couldn't suppress her fear.

The police arrived quickly and Sang Que was taken to the police station, where he was questioned all day long.

She is not yet an adult, only 16 years old, and she told the police about her mother's disability. Therefore, her mother was not invited to come for the inquiry this time. Only their class teacher was invited to accompany her. After all, Qin Lu has no other relatives here, so she can only find the class teacher.

Qin Lu did not die last night. Sang Que has an alibi, and there are surveillance records of her from the time she left her community to the time she entered the village.

The only suspicious point is that she entered Qin Lu's house just after twelve o'clock, so why did she call the police more than an hour later?

Sang Que said she fainted from fright. Her face was pale and she was in really bad condition. She felt weak as if she had hypoglycemia, and no one doubted her statement.

From early morning until dusk, Sang Que was escorted out of the police station by a female police officer named Ai Jing. The class teacher had to stay and continue to deal with the subsequent matters.

"Student Sangque, thank you for your cooperation today. Please accept my condolences. We will definitely catch the murderer who killed your classmate and find her father as soon as possible. This may not be done by her father. Please don't jump to conclusions. Everything must be based on evidence."

Sang Que said nothing, but clenched his fists. If it wasn't that beast who did it, who else could it be?

"In addition, we will carefully check Qin Lu's phone. There must be a scientific explanation for the text message you mentioned. Don't believe in those feudal superstitions."

Sang Que nodded gloomily. All the text messages sent by Qin Lu on her mobile phone disappeared. The police said that Qin Lu's mobile phone was completely broken on the day of her death and it was impossible to send text messages.

And there was also a story-telling group, but no trace of it was left.

"Officer Ai, please investigate the taxi incident thoroughly as well."

Sang Que was very concerned about this matter and was anxious to find Qin Lu at that time. She had originally planned to report the matter of the taxi and the story-telling group to the police after meeting Qin Lu, but she didn't expect so many things to happen afterwards that it was delayed until now.

Ai Jing nodded, "Yes, we will inform your class teacher when there is news. Try not to run around before school starts. If there is any new development, we will ask you to come back to assist in the investigation. After you go back, you'd better communicate with your mother about what happened today."

"it is good."

Ai Jing watched Sang Que take a taxi away, her smile gradually faded, and her brows furrowed.

The taxi that Sang Que mentioned does exist. It left the city last night. The driver's whereabouts overlapped with a recent missing high school girl case, and they are currently tracking him down with all their might.

However, the case has never been made public, so how could she know?
*
The taxi was on the way home, and Sang Que breathed a sigh of relief, finally being able to go home.

Qin Lu’s incident made her feel very sad, but now she could only wait for the police to catch the murderer.

Afterwards, she would pay to help Qin Lu deal with her funeral affairs. This was the only thing she could do for Qin Lu.

Sang Que cleared his mind, leaned back in the back seat, and closed his eyes to rest.

After returning home, eating, drinking and having a good sleep, she had the energy to think about all the bizarre things that happened last night and check the books and money bag she got from Mingzhang.

After chanting the spell twice, she felt as if all her energy and strength had been drained away. She was extremely sleepy. While taking the statement, she ate three box lunches in one go and drank a lot of coffee to get through it.

The evening glow gradually disappeared behind the distant mountains, and night fell quietly.

Gusts of cold wind blew on her body. Sang Que rubbed her arms, and suddenly felt something was wrong. The cold wind was not coming from the window, but from inside the car, next to her.

Sang Que was startled and sat up and turned around. She saw a young man with half of his head missing, blood all over his face, and a bloodstained suit, holding a tattered briefcase, sitting next to her.

The chill rushed straight to the top of Sang Que's head from behind, and Sang Que felt numb all over.

Noticing Sang Que's horrified gaze, the blood-covered man in the suit slowly turned his head and made a creepy hoarse sound.

"you can see……"

Sang Que's breathing stagnated, and he immediately looked through the man in the suit and out the car window on the other side.

"Unfortunately, that spicy hot pot restaurant is closed. Forget it."

Sangque murmured, leaned back in his seat, turned his head and pretended to appreciate the scenery outside the car.

The man in the suit slowly approached, and his squeezed and deformed face almost touched Sang Que's face. The strong smell of blood made Sang Que clench his fists in his pockets.

She put on a relaxed look and saw through the rearview mirror that she was the only one in the back seat.

Sang Que's throat tightened and he forced himself to slowly hum a popular song.

Bang!

Half of the suit man's brain fell on Sangque's legs.

!!!

Summer quick-drying trousers are very thin, and Sangque can even feel the wetness and stickiness, and the slight wriggling sensation of that half brain.

Guji~guji~
"you can see……"

"........."

Fortunately, the roads to small cities are not far. After humming a song, the taxi stopped at the gate of Sangque’s community.

Sang Que calmly took out his broken-screen mobile phone to pay, got out of the car, and saw out of the corner of his eye that the taxi had left, but the man in the suit did not follow.

Sang Que's heart was beating wildly at this moment and his breathing became increasingly rapid.

She picked up her phone and wanted to call the police, but paused. Officer Ai had just warned her not to believe in feudal superstitions, so she turned around and called the police to report that she had encountered something unclean?
Starting from Qin Lu's house, she knew that there were evil spirits in her world as well, just not as many as in the other world. However, she had already encountered two in just one day.

This is because she couldn’t see it before, but can she see it now?

She was very suspicious. If the man in the suit had found out that she could see him, would he have killed her immediately?
The point is, she now has no means to deal with the evil spirits, and the money for warding off evil is gone!

Sangque stood at the gate of the community and looked back. Dark clouds obscured the moon, and the small town at the foot of the mountain seemed to be shrouded in a huge towering black shadow. It was dark, damp and cold, and filled with the smell of decay, dilapidation, and death.

In the busy pedestrian street, there are always hazy black shadows flashing by.

Sang Que's heart tightened and he lowered his head and hurried home.

In just one night, this peaceful little town was no longer peaceful in her eyes. Under the quiet night, there were countless evil spirits hidden that she had never seen before.

If only she had an exorcism talisman like Ming Zhang’s, at least she could ensure her mother’s safety.

And Master Mingzhang, does he have even more powerful methods?

My mother has difficulty walking. Sang Que lives on the first floor. She goes straight home through the back door of the garden. She only turns on the night light in the house, making it dim.

After changing his shoes, Sangque was afraid that he might have brought anything unclean on him, so he took off his coat and trousers and threw them into an empty flowerpot, preparing to burn them all later, including Mingzhang's purse and books, which were also temporarily thrown outside.

After changing into pajamas, Sang Que went to the study and the master bedroom but couldn't find his mother.

Pushing open the door of her bedroom, Sang Que saw her mother sitting in a wheelchair at her desk, with her back to the door, looking through the brand new summer homework on her desk.

Sang Que breathed a sigh of relief, and his nerves, which had been tense all day, also relaxed.

No matter what I went through outside, as long as I went home and saw my mother, it seemed that everything could be healed.

Sang Que walked into the bedroom. All she wanted now was to throw herself into her mother's arms and smell the reassuring scent on her mother's body.

"mom……"

[Ding——Verification passed, please open the door]
"Xiao Que, are you back? Mommy bought you your favorite roasted brain. Come out and eat it."

The sound of the smart door lock and my mother's voice came from the front door. Sang Que was struck by lightning and froze in place.

The old mother in front of me had her long hair loose, her body was motionless, and her head was turning towards me stumblingly.

"You...saw...me..."
