Chapter Ten All Because of Love

  The boy was initially not tempted by the high salary and benefits, nor did he intend to break up with the girl. If all else failed, he would resign. However, the girl liked this job very much, and the boy couldn't bear it.

  The boy finally compromised and proposed a breakup with the girl. To say that there was no personal selfishness here is impossible.

  In the face of love, sometimes human rationality plays no role. The director's daughter was overjoyed when she learned that the boy and his girlfriend had broken up, and she could pursue the boy she had a crush on without any guilt.

  Of course, she was unaware of all this done by her father behind her back.

  To make up for the girl's separation from the boy, the curator arranged a good spot for her. The girl was clever and soon discovered all this.

  No crying, no fuss, silently working every day.

  One evening, a sound broke the silence, and the girl jumped to her death, wearing the red dress the boy had given her.

  From the moment she knew the truth, she had already made up her mind to commit suicide. The reason for delaying it was that she wanted to set a trap, one that would keep herself here forever.

  But in her heart, the girl didn't have hatred. She stayed here not to harm anyone but so that she could see the boy a few times every year.

  "This isn't a perfect ending, but it's not too bad either?" Tian Qi knew that the boy was definitely the current principal, one of the girls was in the small house in the library, and the other was his current wife.

  "But my assistant, my good friend, died because of it," said the curator with a face full of sorrow.

  "Are you talking about the first librarian of this library?" Tian Qi asked.

  The director nodded and looked at Tian Qi, saying: "You went in and didn't have any accidents, and you even knew so many things. You're not just a simple theology doctor, are you?"

  "As long as the Dean knows I didn't have any malicious intentions, that's all that matters. After all, it was just a degree," Tianqi said without mentioning his current ghost-catching business.

  "In the room of that library, when I enter and others enter, different scenes will appear. You must remember the scene you entered, while ordinary people will be scared." said the librarian.

  Indeed, if Tian Qi wasn't used to being in contact with such things all the time, he would have been scared to death.

  The first librarian was scared to death, although she didn't kill her directly, but it was because of her that she died.

  Perhaps it was because of this reason that he no longer went to see that girl.

  "I know what you're thinking, but it's not like that. I'm not avoiding her because of this matter," the curator saw through Tianqi's thoughts. "Everything has a price, and you don't know what consequences her scheme will bring."

  Tian Qi really didn't know, and this was also the reason why he chose to read books in the library to make up for his shortcomings.

  "She will disappear because of this, a real disappearance. I think you should understand what I mean. The reason I don't see her again is to let her put down her attachment and free herself as soon as possible. But so many years have passed, she still can't let go."

  He had a conversation with Director Chen Yu for almost two hours, and Tian Qi was already on his way back. This matter seemed to have nothing to do with him anymore, it's a personal emotional issue, he has no reason to intervene again, the whole story is also clear now.

  Everything is caused by love.

  Before this, Tianqi had probably told Pangzi and Chou Shen about it. Pangzi was excited and thought that this must be another single. When Tianqi returned and said that the matter was over, Pangzi felt greatly disappointed.

  The matter passed like this, the Invincible Ghost Catching Company operated normally. In these half months, they also received a small order and earned 1,000 yuan by helping an old lady find her deceased cat. There were no other orders besides that.

  "Hey! I see your face is dark, there must be evil spirits in your home. Our Invincible Ghost-Catching Company specializes in driving out evil spirits and catching ghosts, helping you turn bad luck into good!"

  "You look like a businessman, our company's big shot will take a look at you and guarantee your business will be very smooth!"

  These days the company has no business, and Fatso is idle with nothing to do, just wandering around the entrance of the company. Whenever he sees someone standing in front of the company door, he goes up to them and boasts about all sorts of things, as if he's going to become an immortal.

  "Why don't you go and discipline him?" Chou Shen and Tian Qi were reading in the house, but Chou Shen couldn't help but look at Bao Zi's deceitful behavior outside.

  Tian Qi smiled and said, "I can't control him, what he's doing may not be ineffective, you don't know that negative publicity is also a kind of promotion?"

  Chou Shen shook his head and didn't say a word, continuing to read his book.

  "Excuse me, is Wu Tianqi here?"

  A man's voice sounded at the door, attracting Tianqi's attention. It was Director Chen.

  "Director Chen? How did you know I was here?" Tian Qi hadn't mentioned his current job or workplace, nor had he told the young librarian.

  "You guys are really famous now, don't you know that?" Chen Yu said this but it was just a figure of speech. As long as one knew Tian Qi's name, in this city, it would be quite easy to find him, and besides, Tian Qi, the PhD in theology, wasn't unknown to many people either.

  Theological doctor opens a ghost-catching company, this was the news headline when it first opened, but it wasn't his idea, it was Fatso's, saying that only by advertising like this would the company have business.

  "Shall we go upstairs to talk?" Tian Qi thought that as the director of a city library, he was also a figure with some reputation. If people saw them talking here, it might not be too good, so he suggested going upstairs to talk.

  "Li Ge, you're watching the business downstairs," Li Gang was Pangzi's full name, Tian Qi rarely called him that, usually just calling him Pangzi, or at most, Pangge. Today, Director Chen is here, so he has to give some face to Pangzi.

  "You're now specialized in this, I don't know if you've heard of the Bureau of Confining Souls?" Director Chen said with a sip of tea.

  Kong Wang Ju, it seems I've heard of it somewhere before. Ah yes, it was my mentor who mentioned it. Tian Qi's mind began to recall his mentor's introduction to this formation.

  But after thinking for half a day, apart from this name, there doesn't seem to be any more detailed content.

  "It seems like it can leave a person's soul in one place, without dispersing or entering reincarnation." Chou Shen said thoughtfully.

  "That's right," Chen Yu had actually noticed Qiu Shen from the moment he came in, this young man didn't speak much, but he dared to be certain, he was definitely not an ordinary person.

  "Does Director Chen mean to find us?" Tianqi thought of the director's purpose for coming.

  "That's right, it means what you think, I want to ask for your help to get out of this situation."

  "Did she agree? If she agreed, shouldn't she be able to untie herself?" Tian Qi knew that the girl was very skilled in this aspect and it was also her own trap.

  "Alas, I didn't know before, and it was she who told me that this situation was originally a dead end, unsolvable." "But I think the world doesn't have such thing as a dead end, all things are interdependent and mutually restrictive, it's just that we haven't found a way to break through yet."

  "To be honest with you, I've only heard of this situation, but I don't have a detailed understanding yet. Please go back and wait for my message, I'll do my best to get back to you within three days."

  After seeing off Director Chen, Tian Qi and Qiu Shen began to study the materials about this trapped soul formation. These were given by Director Chen, from the library and some introductions he could find about this formation, but the materials were very scarce.

  The Lingering Soul Bureau, also known as the Soul-Imprisoning Bureau, is an evil formation that traps the soul of a deceased person in one place until it disperses. The location for setting up this formation must be where the deceased person often stayed while alive, and then a small room is built there with the things the person liked most when they were alive placed inside.

  A person has three souls and seven spirits, one soul and one spirit must be removed before the person dies and placed in this room. Then on her birthday, she will wear a red skirt and commit suicide. This is basically how it's done.

  If you want to harm someone, these are not easy to operate, but if a person wants to set up a trap for themselves, it's much easier. Because at that time, the director also said that he would compensate her and let her propose conditions. She proposed building a room in the library, although the director was initially somewhat difficult, but ultimately agreed.

  For her, there was nothing difficult left.

  But after searching and searching, I have also understood some introductory materials, but the answers given are always that this is a dead end, unsolvable.
