Not long after she left, a child in the store finally couldn't help but ask the mother next to him,

"Mom, why is the beautiful white-haired sister at the table next to me talking to herself?"

"Shh! Don't bother with him, he's a lunatic..."

......

When Luo Ling pushed open the door, Su Wan rushed over almost immediately, looked left and right, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Luo Ling had no injuries on his body.

"They didn't do anything to you, did they?" Su Wan asked nervously.

"No, I just took notes and came back." Luo Ling replied with a smile, and then handed Su Wan milk tea, "Here, this is what Officer Ji gave me."

But Su Wan did not take the milk tea. She showed a hesitant look, as if she thought about it carefully, and then asked, "What happened yesterday..."

"Sister, I have confirmed with Officer Ji," Luo Ling said softly, "nothing happened yesterday."

She had already made up her mind not to let her sister get involved in these dangerous things.

"...Yeah?"

Su Wan's face turned a little paler, and she showed some doubt.

She was now in a state of confusion. No matter how she tried to recall, everything that happened yesterday was extremely clear.

Even just standing in the room upstairs, one could smell a horrible smell of blood, and the air seemed to be filled with a disgusting stench.

But everything in the room remained the same as before, without any change.

Are these really my own delusions?

Is it just a psychological effect?

Su Wan was in a state of confusion.

Seeing her sister's pale face, Luo Ling's eyes flashed with guilt and heartache.

She knew very well that she was deceiving her sister, but...it was better to let her know the cruel truth than to make her wonder if she was hallucinating.

"Oh, by the way, sister, don't take what Officer Ji said seriously," Luo Ling took a deep breath and said slowly, "You're just too tired recently. Just take more rest."

In order to raise money for her medical expenses, my sister worked a lot of overtime and her face has been haggard in the past few months.

Luo Ling made up her mind that she would never let her sister work so hard any longer.

In addition, she said these words to stop her sister from continuing to think too much, which might make her think of a disease even if she was not sick.

As for taking her sister to Qingshan Hospital for refuge, Luo Ling thought about it for a while on the way back and decided to give up.

Firstly, they probably couldn't afford the hospitalization fees. Secondly, Luo Ling didn't trust Ji Ying 100% and was suspicious of this so-called gathering place for awakeners.

She was worried about leaving her sister in an unknown place.

I'll talk about it after I've personally explored it.

"Hmm...Hmm?" Hearing this, Su Wan's expression suddenly froze. She looked up and asked in confusion, "Officer Ji? Which Officer Ji? What did you say?"

Luo Ling was stunned for a moment and said, "Come and take me to the Public Security Bureau, Officer Ji Ying, haven't you met him?"

"..."

Su Wan was silent for a while, then slowly said,

"Xiao Ling, didn't you turn yourself in?"

Chapter 13: A Little Happiness

...surrender?

Luo Ling showed a surprised expression. How could she possibly turn herself in?

"Did I remember it wrong again?"

Su Wan looked dazed and said in an uncertain tone, "I remember that after you got up, you stopped me from turning myself in to the police station, and said that you didn't kill anyone.

"In the end, I couldn't persuade you, so I stayed at home and waited for your news..."

Listening to her sister's description, Luo Ling's expression was shocked, and her heart felt as if it was being tightened.

But soon, she reacted.

It's an illusion!

Ji Ying's "illusion"!

From the very beginning, Ji Ying used illusions on herself, and everyone ignored her existence.

Now it seems that the power of the "illusion" has exceeded Luo Ling's previous expectations, and even face-to-face conversations will be forced to be forgotten.

It is precisely because of this that my sister’s memory is distorted.

Besides...

Luo Ling looked at the two cups of milk tea on the table, and her heart slowly settled down.

...I almost thought that Ji Ying was just a figment of my imagination.

"Xiao Ling, you..."

Su Wan's heart almost rose to her throat. She didn't know if it was her problem or if her sister's illness was more serious.

Or maybe Xiao Ling is just deceiving herself...

"I made a mistake, sister. I slept for two whole days and was completely sleepy." Seeing her sister's pale face, Luo Ling said repeatedly, "Officer Ji is the police sister who helped me take notes at the Public Security Bureau. She is a very nice person."

"Is that right?"

Although there was still some suspicion in Su Wan's eyes, her expression had obviously relaxed.

She raised her hand and touched Luo Ling's hair lovingly. The soft touch from her palm made her feel at ease.

"Xiao Ling, don't hide anything from me. I promise I won't hide anything from you in the future. Let's not make each other worry, okay?"

"Um..."

Luo Ling responded, but his eyes looked a little dazed.

Fortunately, she lowered her head slightly due to Su Wan's action, so her sister didn't notice it.

I'm sorry, sister, but for this one thing...I have no choice but to lie to you.

Looking at the well-behaved little sister in front of her, Su Wan raised the corner of her mouth slightly with a comfortable smile.

No matter what happens, as long as the two sisters are fine...that's enough.

"Is this milk tea?" Su Wan picked up the milk tea on the table and looked at it for a while. "I often see customers bringing it to convenience stores, but I have never drunk it. I have to thank Officer Ji."

"Thank you." Luo Ling raised his head and blinked.

Su Wan smiled, then took a sip tentatively, "So sweet!"

"tasty?"

Luo Ling stared at her sister, fearing that she might not like the taste of the milk tea.

"Delicious."

Su Wan nodded, and the tired look on her face was relieved a lot because of this touch of sweetness.

"When I finish my studies and start making money, I'll buy you drinks every day." The corners of Luo Ling's eyes curved like a bright crescent moon, and her delicate and pretty little face was shining, which made Su Wan a little infatuated.

This is her sister, her dearest sister.

"Okay, sister will wait for you." Su Wan said softly.

"By the way, sister, I'm almost fully recovered. I'll be back to school in two days." Luo Ling stood on tiptoe and touched Su Wan's cheek. "Look, my strength is back to normal. I've been awake for such a long time, and I'm not drowsy."

"...real?"

Su Wan raised her head and looked at Luo Ling with some disbelief.

When I went to the hospital a few days ago, Dr. Li, who unfortunately passed away from a heart attack, said that Xiaoling's condition had become more serious.

How come it suddenly got better in one day?

"real."

Luo Ling rubbed Su Wan's face, revealing a playful smile, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.

"Okay, okay...Sister will pack your things for you right now, okay...okay..."

As Su Wan spoke, she couldn't help but turn her face away to hide the tears in her eyes.

Her wish is not far away, and now a little happiness is enough.

"Ok!"

Luo Ling nodded heavily, and the smile on his face unconsciously deepened.

The sun sets in the west, and the setting sun shines gently.

Dusk has arrived.

......

The next morning, Luo Ling woke up at dawn after a long absence.

She was a little uncomfortable with the long-lost normal routine. She opened the door quietly, but found that there was no familiar figure outside.

However, through the "spores", Luo Ling could see that her sister was sleeping in the room, and her peaceful sleeping face made her feel relieved.

The main reason was that too many things had happened in the past few days. Luo Ling also felt that she was a little neurotic. Puppet Yao might not have been fully aware of her existence.

Otherwise, he and his sister would have suffered a great loss during the day he was unconscious after killing Li Tianming and Wu Qin.

Luo Ling wondered whether she should make breakfast for her sister, but she was worried that the noise of cooking might wake her sister up. But soon she didn't have to worry about it anymore.

A familiar cold voice suddenly rang out in my mind, and slowly said,

"Ms. Luo Ling, are you awake?"

"discipline..."

"No need to make any sound, just concentrate and talk to me in your mind. You don't know how to use the spores, do you?"

"..."

Luo Ling really didn’t know. She still hadn’t had time to figure out the details of her abilities.

I didn't expect that in addition to monitoring, it can also be used as a brain intercom...

"Yesterday I had already tracked down the whereabouts of the 'Wangchuan Little Ghost', it was inside the Jiangcheng People's Hospital.

"I was originally planning to solve it myself, but I didn't expect to be entangled in something... Please go over there first, at least delay it from running too far, I will be there soon.

"Don't worry, the "Forgotten Imp" is not very powerful in frontal combat, so it is quite cautious and timid. It is the weirdness of the "Nightmare" path - the other side of "Dream Travel", so please pay attention to the protection on the spiritual level."

After saying this, Ji Ying fell silent. Even if Luo Ling wanted to use the spores to convey the message again, he couldn't do it.

Is the weirdness of "Nightmare"...

Luo Ling remembered that Ji Ying had mentioned yesterday that the strange path was opposite to that of the awakened one, and that "Nightmare" should have abilities similar to those of the psychic system.

And on the girl in the coffin in the consciousness space, Luo Ling saw that Puppet Yao's path was "Silence and Death", the other side of "All Spirits".

She was walking on a strange path.

"Let's not worry about that for now. Let me face the weirdness alone. Ji Ying...are you trying to test my strength?" Luo Ling frowned slightly.

She was very clear that she was different now from when she faced Li Tianming. Apart from some of Puppet Yao's abilities, she was no different from an ordinary girl.

After changing his form, although he was no longer drowsy, he had lost that strange and powerful strength.

But thinking back, even if Ji Ying had not shown up, Luo Ling would have investigated the situation of the Wangchuan ghost himself. This was the only clue left by Li Tianming.

If the problem of the "Puppet Rumor" is not resolved, she and her sister will never have peace.

What's more, the owner of the Wangchuan ghost, Li Tianming, was killed by himself. The little ghost with a strong sense of revenge will sooner or later seek revenge on himself...or even his sister.

If her sister got hurt or even... Luo Ling would never be able to accept such an outcome.

"Anyway...be careful."
