Chapter 4 Verse 16

  Fire trucks, ambulances and police cars came one after another.

  The nearby residents surrounded the building in circles, and some of the residents living in the nearby buildings brought their valuables out of their homes.

  No one knew how the big fire happened, people only knew that when they realized it, the fire of this old building was already unstoppable.

  The entire building had twenty-five households, excluding the Chen family of seven. Seventy-seven people were trapped inside, and in the end only five managed to escape. A total of seventy-two people died in this sudden fire.

  The five people who escaped from the building fire were all unclear about the cause of the fire, each with a dazed expression, as if they had a huge secret hidden in their hearts, and also as if they were doubting whether everything was real or just their own illusion, except for Ren Hua.

  Ren Hua has a complete memory, and it was also him who burned the remaining limbs of the voodoo doll that allowed the true appearance of the entire building to reappear in the real world.

  The survivors in the building were also rescued by him along with Si Tu and Cheng Zhou.

  Cheng Chou's soul returned to his own body and he also received two gifts that made him unsure whether to be happy or worried.

  Yao Fangqing put the lottery ticket his parents bought and the gold necklace he picked up into Cheng Chou's pocket, and sent them out of the building together.

  Along with these two gifts, there was also a letter written by Yao Fangqing.

  Cheng Zhou didn't have time to read the letter because the police found him.

  Chengzhou had a headache and didn't know how to explain it to the police, he hadn't thought of an excuse yet, he was about to go find Situ, but saw Hongye open his arms wanting him to hug.

  Cheng Zhou picked up Hong Ye, who looked very scared and hugged his neck, saying she wanted to go home.

  The police saw Hong Ye, and his face immediately became much more gentle. He asked Cheng Zhou's questions were no longer so sharp: "You said you came to visit a friend, but found a murder case in the building, so you were scared and hid until the big fire couldn't hide, and then followed the surviving residents escaped?"

  Cheng Zhou nodded, his expression honest and terrified. This wasn't an act, it was just the subconscious reaction of a small-town citizen seeing an authority figure.

  The interrogating policeman scratched his eyebrow with the tip of his pen and turned to look at the team leader who was questioning Ren Hua and other residents on the other side.

  He found the survivor's testimony too incredible, yet he couldn't see any sign of deception. He now urgently wanted to know what the other residents' testimonies were like.

  The several police officers who took the testimony of Ren Hua and other residents were also at a loss, these five people except for that young man named Ren Hua, not one was willing to tell the truth, either they were evasive or they spoke nonsense, talking for half a day without knowing what they were saying.

  But Ren Hua's confession sounded... so unbelievable that the police officer who was taking down his statement doubted him from head to toe, and in the end he even suspected that this young man had psychological problems, otherwise how could he say such an absurd confession?

  What did Ren Hua say?

  Ren Hua told the truth to the police.

  He said he had always held a grudge against the residents of the building, because when he was young, his father beat his mother and him. The neighbors in this building would either watch the excitement or pretend to be unaware, no one ever came to their rescue, and not only did they not save them, but also spoke all kinds of bad things about their family behind their backs.

  When he was young, he was once beaten so badly that he escaped from home and knocked on every door, begging for his life to be saved. However, no one opened the door for him except for Yao Fangqing.

  That time, Yao Fangqing didn't do anything, just threatened to call the police and said he would report him. In the end, Ren Hua was still dragged home by his father and beaten up. But from then on, Ren Hua had a good impression of Yao Fangqing, who everyone in the building said was no good.

  Moreover, Yao Fangqing and his life experience are similar, both having a pair of annoying parents. His mother was slightly better, but unfortunately died too early. Later, Yao Fangqing taught him that if his father wanted to beat him again, he should get him drunk with wine, and once he's drunk, nothing would happen. Ren Hua gradually escaped from his miserable life.

  Yao Fangqing didn't know much about what happened later, but one time he saw Yao burning something at the door of her house, as if she was doing some kind of ritual. The next day, out of curiosity, he asked her and learned how to curse people.

  Later, Ren Hua was wandering around the neighborhood when he stumbled upon an old Taoist priest who had fallen to the ground. Out of curiosity, he helped the old man up - it was his first time seeing a real-life Taoist priest.

  The old Taoist, to show his gratitude, gave him a voodoo doll and told him it could help him curse the people he hated. He also taught him an even more powerful method of cursing.

  The police had already wanted Ren Hua to shut up by this point, but out of professional habit, he continued to listen patiently.

  Ren Hua said he had a dog, which was a dying puppy he picked up from the street and raised with great difficulty. However, people in the building didn't like his little white dog because it would sometimes bark loudly in the hallway.

  One day, four days ago, he found that his dog was gone and finally found Xiaobai who was dying in the corner of the corridor.

  He sent Xiaobai to the animal hospital, but because he had no money, the doctor refused to accept Xiaobai and said that Xiaobai's injuries were too severe, even if he had money, it would be impossible to save him.

  The doctor looked at him and Xiaobai pitifully, then examined Xiaobai and found that several bones on its body were broken, and the internal organs were severely damaged. He judged that Xiaobai was likely to be kicked against the wall by someone intentionally and trampled maliciously.

  Xiao Bai is almost dead, and the doctor suggested that he let Xiao Bai be euthanized, saying that he can help for free.

  Ren Hua took the puppy back home.

  Later... Ren Hua said he remembered the more sinister curse method that the old Taoist had taught him, so he personally cut off the four limbs of Xiaobai, who still had a breath left. Finally, he cut off its head and divided its body into six parts, soaking it in the medicinal powder sent by the old Taoist, then stuffed Xiaobai's flesh into the body of the voodoo doll that was also divided into six parts.

  Then Ren Hua followed the old Taoist's spell and timing, reciting the incantation while placing the voodoo doll's limbs in various parts of the building.

  As he buried the last limb, the curse on the entire building also began.

  And this curse on the entire building is that every curse spoken within it becomes a reality!

  Then people in the building started dying, one after another...

  The police officer questioning him silently stared at Ren Hua, thinking to himself: Is this kid okay? Looking at the kid's frailty and haggard appearance, he must have suffered unimaginable abuse and torture. This kid has probably been driven mad by his father's abuse! What a fantasy!

  The police finally put their heads together and unanimously decided to send the survivors to the hospital first.

  The building is still being rescued from fire because the fire inside is too big and firefighters have not yet entered to check the cause of the fire.

  So at this time, the police were not under too much pressure and their mood was not too bad. Although the scene was terrible and there were too many deaths, on the surface it seemed like a simple arson or fire case.

  Cheng Zhou was also sent to the hospital, although he repeatedly stated that he didn't need to go, but the police were very insistent.

  Chengzhou sat in the ambulance and took out Yao Fangqing's letter to read.

  Dear Mr. Cheng, hope this letter finds you well!

  By the time you read this letter, I have already become one of the ghosts in someone's hand.

  I have done many wrong things in this life, some of which make me regret beyond recall. I once hoped to be reborn to correct those mistakes, unfortunately...

  Now in this world, there are four people I owe an apology to: my son Yuan Yuan, Ren Hua who was affected by me, my good friend Chen Yan who stood up for me and got implicated, and... you.

  And it's also you four people whom I'm worried about and want to make up for.

  The one million yuan winning lottery ticket and the pure gold necklace attached to this letter are my compensation and entrustment fee for you.

  Perhaps you've already understood, that when I went to find you initially, it wasn't just a simple thank you. And when you came into this building, not only did I intentionally separate you from your servant ghost, but also hid your body.

  Originally he said I was to give your body over to him, but I changed my mind, just like I regret taking my son as a trade-off to go and kill that bastard with my own hands.

  Look at me, I'm such a failed woman, can't even be a good person properly, and when trying to be a bad person, it's also not thorough.

  Don't worry about me being punished by him, because I feel that he still needs to use me in many ways.

  Also, I'm writing this letter not because I want you to save me, but because I want to ask three favors of you.

  Firstly, please become Ren Hua's guardian. As far as I know, he no longer has any relatives, and even if he did, they would not take responsibility for him. So I implore you to take on the responsibility of caring for Ren Hua until he comes of age. In addition to taking care of his daily life, please also encourage him to study hard and get back on track.

  Secondly, please personally perform the ritual to send Yuan Yuan directly to reincarnation, don't let him linger in the underworld. I know you can do this. Some powerful masters not only can save ghosts but also can directly negotiate with the judges of the underworld and let the saved ghost be reborn immediately. Although Yuan Yuan became a little demon, he never harmed anyone after his death. You sending him to reincarnation doesn't require much cost.

  Thirdly, rescue Chen Yan from hatred and don't let her use the methods I taught her to curse others again.

  Finally, I would like to extend to you our most sincere apologies and...

  A small hand stretched out and snatched the letter away.

  "What are you staring at for so long? One moment smiling foolishly, the next frowning, who gave you a love letter?"

  Hong Ye grasped the letter and began reading. When he read halfway through, he started to get angry. By the time he finished reading, the letter in his hand had turned into ashes.

  At this sight, two survivors in the same car suddenly shuddered violently.

  Ren Hua sat across from him, his youthful face now bearing a thoughtful expression reminiscent of an adult. It was as if this young man had matured significantly in just one day.

  "Damn it! You think you can just stuff two younger brothers down my throat for a million? No way!"

  Chengzhou was so angry that he couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time, "Who wants to be your younger brother? Don't talk nonsense! And where did you learn such dirty words from? You're not allowed to say them again in the future!"

  Hong Ye looked up and down at Cheng Chou several times, then leaned in to sniff him, sniffing for half a day without smelling anything. Immediately, she stretched out her hand to poke his face, "Speak! Where did you hide that little ghost?"

  "Which little devil? You mean Yuan Yuan? I don't know, I haven't seen him all along."

  Yuan Yuan hid behind Ren Hua, sticking to his ear and trembling: "Mom? Where did my mom go? That little brother is so scary, he's coming!"

  Yuanyuan let out a scream and hid in Renhua's pocket.

  Cheng Zhou moved over, and Ren Hua, who had just been questioned by the police, felt a bit tense, despite trying to put on an expression of being nonchalant and fearless.

  The author has something to say: Thank you for your support, cute masters!
