Chapter 14 - Discover Curses
I lay prone at the door and secretly observed Su Xiao. Compared to yesterday, she didn't seem to be any better. She was still lying lifelessly on the bed, not talking to anyone else.
I dismissed the student who took care of her, and she only moved her head a few times.
I am also a student of medicine. Even if I have not mastered it yet, I more or less understand that Su Xiao put on such a front just to hide her guilt.
I didn't want to beat around the bush, so I went straight to the point. "Who is Bai Weiwei?"
Su Xiao probably didn't expect me to know about Bai Weiwei. She first gave me a surprised look, then retracted her body and covered her head with the blanket.
As expected, she was still unwilling to reveal too much. But it was clear that if she didn't tell us, then we wouldn't be able to find out the cause and effect of this matter. This would also cause the red-clothed female ghost to keep stirring up trouble, and Su Xiao's life would be in constant danger.
I think that Su Xiao knew the seriousness of the problem, and she didn't need me to tell her the reasoning behind it, so I didn't say much, but maintained my unyielding attitude. "Do you still remember the man who came to find you yesterday? Even if you didn't say anything, the police could still find out who Bai Weiwei is. It's just a matter of time. "
I looked at the indifferent Su Xiao and felt a little disappointed. However, I still confidently threatened her, "If you don't explain your relationship, then it's very possible that Bai Weiwei will come find you tonight. At that time, your life will be safe!"
I deliberately stopped talking, and looked unblinkingly at Su Xiao.
At this moment, Shen Tuo walked in and wanted to say something. Unexpectedly, Su Xiaoxiao lifted the blanket and looked at me expressionlessly. "You're wrong. That ghost girl isn't Bai Weiwei."
Because of the fact that among the people involved in this matter, there is only one female ghost that I don't understand. Thus, I first assumed that Bai Weiwei was that female ghost. Su Xiao's merciless negation made me feel a little embarrassed. I looked at Shen Ta. Shen Ta raised his eyebrows, as if he was also laughing at me.
What can I do? I'm not a cop!
It turned out that Su Xiao, Chen Ziyue, and Bai Weiwei were good friends who grew up together. However, after the college entrance exam, Su Xiaoxiao and Chen Ziyue entered the same university, while Bai Weiwei was accepted into another university because of her outstanding results.
According to Su Xiao, she'd had a nightmare last night, and the one with him was Bai Weiwei.
Although Su Xiao had always insisted that she could not remember the details of the nightmare, even if she used her toes to think, she would still know that there was definitely a red-clothed female ghost in the dream.
But why didn't Su Xiao want to tell us anything about that ghost lady in red? From all the evidence, it could be seen that Su Xiao definitely knew her. I'm sure Su Xiao knows that we've already discovered this.
But, what exactly was she holding on to?!
Unable to figure it out, I turned around and walked out of the ward. I saw that Shen Tuo was already smoking beside the bed in the corridor. Seeing me walk over, he quickly threw away his cigarette and smiled at me in embarrassment.
"Didn't the nurse tell you that no smoking is allowed in the hospital?"
I was beside him, on my stomach by the window sill, looking out.
"I know what you want to ask, but I'm not really a cop either, because I'm also a Daoist."
What? Daoist Priest!
But then again, Shen Tuo is indeed a police officer. I will stand here and he will know what I want to say.
"Actually, my dad is a Mr. Feng Shui, so I'm not like those atheist cops. That's why I'm the only one investigating this case."
I looked Shen Ta up and down. I imagined him in a Taoist attire, holding a horsetail whisk. It was hilarious, but I still couldn't bring myself to laugh.
For a moment, I didn't know what to say. When I realized that there was no one in Su Xiao's room, I turned around and walked into her room.
The window of the ward was open, and a gust of wind blew in. I saw a flash of yellow under Su Xiao's bed.
I slightly frowned and suddenly thought of a solution.
I picked up the nearby breakfast and sat down next to Su Xiao's bed, stirring the porridge in my hands time and time again. After passing the bowl of porridge to Su Xiao's mouth, my hand trembled and I dropped the spoon to the ground.
I smiled awkwardly at Su Xiao, then quickly crouched down and went under the bed to pick up the spoon.
Yes, I did it on purpose. Otherwise, how could I see the incantation someone had stuck under Su Xiao's bed? However, since I found out about Shen Ta's new identity, I wasn't curious about this thing.
I once again placed the congee next to Su Xiao's mouth. Seeing that Su Xiao seemed to have accepted me quite a bit, I took the opportunity to ask. "Do you think you can hide away for the rest of your life?"
Su Xiao had also calmed down a bit. She probably didn't want to divulge any more information. She simply looked at me, then lowered her head and continued to drink her congee.
Since I've already said this much, I don't think there will be any results no matter how much I ask. Moreover, if Su Xiaoxiao wanted to say, she should have told me the night I invited the ghost.
I can't help but think, if Su Xiaoxiao had told us about her secret earlier, wouldn't so many things have happened?!
"But, where did all these 'ifs' come from?"
Seeing that Su Xiaoxiao had finished eating, I didn't want to waste any more words with her, so I just went out again. With the protection of the talisman, the female ghost shouldn't be able to do anything to her in broad daylight.
Shen Ta was still in his original position, as if he hadn't moved since I left him.
At this moment, a nurse passed us. The cart was covered with a white cloth, and the red cloth was stained with blood.
I know, under that white cloth, it's another mother with an unformed child
As I thought about this, I couldn't help but touch my stomach.
There is still no change in my lower abdomen. Even I am in a bit of a trance. There is actually a child inside …
