Chapter 29 ≈ Soft-hearted Soul

  Chapter 29≈"Hmph, of course I'm helping. Did you think I was collecting junk?" Bai Jiuyue replied with an innocent face. Lin Hao's forehead veins bulged slightly, "Isn't that what you're doing? This is the morgue of the Third Criminal Police Squad, not a ordinary residence. You're dismantling it so quickly, how am I supposed to explain this to my superiors?"

  Bai Jiuyue remained silent for a moment before speaking, "Don't worry! Just leave everything to me. In other words, isn't it better to tear down and start anew?" Bai Jiuyue's expression was nonchalant.

  Lin Hao covered his forehead with both hands, as if he was about to faint. He really wanted to use his own scalpel to cut open this guy's head and study it carefully to see what kind of structure his brain had.

  "Even if you want to demolish this house, you still have to wait until I carry the female corpse out before you can start demolition, it's not late!"

  "What should we do now?" asked Bai Jiuyue.

  "What should I do, how can I know what to do? Don't even know if the female corpse can still be found?" Lin Hao said with a furrowed brow.

  "Isn't it just a few corpses? Why are you so tense?" Bai Jiuyue asked strangely.

  "A few corpses, you have no idea what's going on inside, anyway, there's something wrong with that female corpse!" Lin Hao said anxiously.

  "I didn't think there was anything wrong with that place, I just thought the female corpse seemed to rot faster." Bai Jiuyue said.

  "As expected, you're really a big fool! I think you still have some foolishness left in you. You're really infuriating me to death!" Lin Hao was now scolding him like an old wife would scold her husband who had done something wrong, and she was so angry that she was almost spinning around in circles.

  Bai Jiuyue didn't refute, but instead looked at the person in front of her with a happy expression. However, Lin Hao himself didn't notice that he had unknowingly put down his cold demeanor in front of Bai Jiuyue.

  Lin Hao was scolding loudly when he suddenly realized that Bai Jiuyue was standing in front of him, revealing a strange smile. It wasn't until then that Lin Hao abruptly discovered that he might have overreacted.

  "Lin Hao, is this the real you? I think this kind of daring and outspoken personality suits you better. Actually, I can see that beneath your cold and proud exterior, there's a story hidden." Bai Jiuyue said gently.

  "Life is like this, sometimes being aloof doesn't mean you can escape everything. When it's time to let go, you must do so without hesitation. It's been 18 years! It's time to let your heart be at peace and reincarnate!" Bai Jiuyue said with a pained expression, looking at Lin Hao who was slightly dazed in front of him.

  "What did you say? I didn't quite catch it?" Lin Hao said, turning around with a foolish expression.

  "Don't you understand? Then Xin Ruo will understand!" Bai Jiuyue said with a gloomy tone.

  Bai Jiuyue's words fell, and with a flick of his hand, a silver light shot straight at Lin Hao's left wrist, where the black crystal bracelet was. Lin Hao saw it and quickly formed a seal to block the silver light that Bai Jiuyue had unleashed.

  "What are you doing? Do you know?" Lin Haoli loudly questioned.

  "I certainly know what I'm doing? It's just that you don't know what you're sitting on," Bai Jiu replied, raising her voice slightly.

  "I'm too lazy to reason with you, crazy person," Lin Hao said, then busied himself checking if his watch was loose.

  "Haohao, your master taught you the skills not to keep Xing Rong's soul, but to help those in need and do meaningful things." Bai Jiuyue angrily grabbed Lin Hao's shoulder and shouted.

  "If you don't understand, then don't talk nonsense!" Lin Hao shouted even louder at this time.

  "I know, as long as it's your business, I naturally know everything. But if the gentle soul doesn't come out soon, Gentle Three Souls Seven Souls won't be complete, and reincarnation will become an idiot," said Bai Jiuyue.

  Then Lin Hao said, "I certainly know that Master taught me the method, hoping that I can do something within my power for the wronged ghosts in the world, and hope that I will explore the secrets of this..."

  "Why are you still doing something that goes against the will of heaven? Do you know that what you're doing will shorten your lifespan? Moreover, you've confined your sister's soul, have you ever asked your sister Xin Ruo if she agrees with what you're doing?" Bai Jiu Yue said in a softened tone.

  When Lin Hao heard Bai Jiuyue's words, he was stunned. At this moment, Bai Jiuyue's previous words kept echoing in Lin Hao's ears. He rubbed his face hard with both hands, then clasped them together and squatted down lightly, staring blankly at the moonlight in the distance.

  "Master, Haohuo has not followed your teachings! Using the little knowledge of Xuan Huang's technique, he actually did something against the will of heaven! But Xin Rong's death is a thorn in Haohuo's heart that can never be pulled out. If one day he doesn't find the murderer who killed Xin Rong, Haohuo won't be able to live at peace. Master, please let me go, I swear to heaven that I will not bring shame to your face."

  Lin Hao knelt on the ground, making a silent vow in his heart. His hands pounded forcefully on the cement floor... until the sky above began to drizzle with fine rain. From morning till night, Lin Hao went without food or drink for over ten hours, except for a bottle of orange juice he had drunk that morning.

  I don't know if it's because of the pain in my heart, which has been buried for too long, or because I haven't eaten, but after crying and getting tired, I gradually fell asleep... The next day, at dusk, Lin Hao finally woke up, opening his eyes to look at himself in the mirror.

  For the first time, he revealed a brilliant smile. In eighteen years, Lin Hao had never felt that his own smile was so good-looking, nor had he ever felt so relaxed.

  "Are you awake? How are you feeling? Go wash your face first, then change into some clean clothes. I'll treat you to breakfast." Bai Jiuyue said as she pushed open the door and entered the room.
