piecing together the soul

Chapter 20 Eighteen
The body that jumped off the building was also taken away, and the staff who cleaned the ground also left. Seeing that there was no one around, I got up and walked towards her.She seemed to see me, like a hungry wolf who found food, she immediately rushed towards me!She moved so fast that I couldn't react at all.

When I got to Zuo Jin, she suddenly stopped. I noticed her body trembled, and then she didn't dare to go any further.She looked up at me and saw me staring at her intently, as if she had finally realized that I could see her.

"You!" She seemed to remember me, "It's you?"

"You, remember me?" I was very surprised and asked subconsciously.She actually spoke, and it seems that she hasn't reached the level of inability to communicate that Xiaohan said, maybe because she is still a new ghost.

"I just ran into you at the supermarket," she said. "I know I'm dead. They can't see me. Why can you see me?"

"Me?" I smiled wryly, "I don't know either, I've been confused with ghosts lately."

"Why can't I approach you?" she asked again.

"I don't know either." I didn't want to answer her question, but I had a bold idea.So I asked her: "You, why did you jump off the building?"

"I..." Hearing my question, she was at a loss for words, and then seemed to be muttering to herself, "Actually, I don't know, I'm just... It's just that I'm jealous... I used to be so jealous of others The... but, but I never wanted to die before..."

"Then when did you start thinking about it?" I asked again.

"That's right, three days ago." She seemed to be recalling, "Three days ago, right here, there was a basketball game. The boy I liked was also on the field. I kept cheering for him and cheering for him, but he couldn't see without looking at me..."

three days ago?Wasn't that the day I came here to dig up the bones?It seems that she suddenly wanted to commit suicide because she was seduced by a resentful spirit.She said, I looked at her carefully, I think she looks very good-looking, but her eyes are very evasive.

She continued, as if she was still talking to herself: "His girlfriend is also watching, that girl is not as tall as me, not as beautiful as me, not as good as me...Why is he with her?"

Speaking of this, the clothes on her body obviously started to turn red. I was afraid that she would really become a ghost, so I quickly said: "No, no, he just hasn't met you. If he knew you first, he would definitely like you."

"Really?" After listening to my words, the color of her clothes turned darker and turned transparent. "Could it be that I'm too timid?"

"It's okay." I persuaded carefully, "Everyone has weaknesses, and it's not your fault for being timid."

Seeing that she was silent, I continued to whisper: "You can be reincarnated, and in the next life you won't be so timid, and you won't be jealous of others."

"Really?" She seemed to have really listened to what I said, her eyes lit up, "Then in the next life, will he like me?"

I looked into her eyes firmly, nodded and said, "I will."

"Really?" she asked again.

I also nodded again.Then, her clothes gradually disappeared, and it seemed that she was going to let go of her obsession.

However, she immediately lowered her head and said, "But I still want to see him again...I can't bear him."

She looked like she was wearing light clothes again, with no color visible.But I wanted her to reincarnate quickly, so as not to harm anyone here, so I quickly advised: "You stay here now, he can't see you. Hurry up and reincarnate, maybe when you reach this age again, to meet him again."

"Really?" she asked again.If it is normal, I will definitely lose my temper.But throwing a tantrum at a ghost... I guess forget it.

"Yes." I said with a smile, "immediate reincarnation, you can still see him. In today's society, how normal is it for a man in his 40s to fall in love with a teenage girl, and you will still have a chance then. "

"Really?" The clothes on her body disappeared again, and the translucent figure was exposed, and I knew that I was almost successful.

I didn't speak any more, just looked into her eyes seriously as before, smiled and nodded.Then, I saw her soul ascending, she kept smiling, and gradually became more and more transparent. At the last moment, she lowered her head as if looking for me, smiled and said to me: "Thank you."

I still laughed until I couldn't see her at all.

Then, I stood there in a daze for an unknown amount of time.

If she is like this, she should be considered a reincarnation, right?I looked over to where she fell.It may be that the temperature is already low at night, and the washing water is not yet dry. The effect of evaporation and heat absorption makes this place extraordinarily cool.

I know that I lied to her. The reason why she suddenly wanted to commit suicide must have been seduced by resentful spirits.But if I tell her this, she will definitely become the next Wraith.As for whether she can be reincarnated, whether she can meet the boy she was talking about again, how do I know?
I just don't want her to resent the world, and I don't want one more grieving spirit in this world, because then she can't get rid of it, and I don't know how many people will be involved.Yes, I hope she does that, smile peacefully, and leave.Although I don't know where she will go, at least it's better than staying here
I don't know why, but I suddenly feel like crying.If not for me, would this girl really become another Wraith?Just like Brother Xiu said, if his wife hadn't come to persuade him, he might have become a ghost too.

Then, if someone could persuade the previous Wraith Spirit just after he passed away, wouldn't he also become a Wraith Spirit, and wouldn't there be so many tragedies later?Or, if the wraith had been persuaded before he chose to die, wouldn't he choose to end his life?
Cherish the people around you and care about them, maybe it can really resolve the tragedy that may happen.

I walked away slowly, turned around subconsciously, and looked up at the place where she disappeared.One day, I will also send Brother Xiu off like this, right?
