Chapter Fifty-One: Ghost Pushes People

  After returning to the hotel, I went straight back to my room and lay down. I was too tired from sitting in the car for several hours...I fell asleep immediately. The next day, I was woken up by a call from Director Jiang.

  "Zi Chuan, come to the police station to pick up your documents, Captain Luo has already sent someone over!" Has my document arrived? So quickly? I hung up the phone and got out of bed to wake up Sheng Teng next door, but he didn't open the door until after I knocked for half a day.

  I and Shi Teng arrived at the office of Director Jiang, "Zi Chuan, Shi Teng, this is your ID card. If you need help from local police in the future, just show it to the director." I took over the ID card and looked at it, feeling quite dignified. On it was written: Special Task Force Member Li Zi Chuan. Next to the photo, I took a look, and it was me? Still wearing a police uniform...

  "Hey, Director Jiang, this photo doesn't quite look like me?"

  "These photos were retrieved from the police system, and the uniform was put on afterwards." When I heard Director Jiang say this, I realized that these were the photos I used for my ID card... I looked so young back then.

  "Haha, Subo big brother look at me, I'm so handsome!" Shitian suddenly exclaimed, and I looked over. "This is too unfair!" This kid's photo looks much better than mine.

  "Shi Teng is not recorded in the system, and the photos were all taken by surveillance cameras." The system has no record? That's right, Shi Teng has been living in the mountains for years, who knows what an ID card is...

  "Alright, alright, you're handsome, now stop showing off." I looked at him discontentedly.

  I've received the documents and thought of Zhang Ting, I want to show off to her and let her know how awesome my man is. Shiteng and I thought of the same place, "Zi Chuan big brother! I'm going to show it to Ruo Qin!"

  "Go, go, go!" I sent him off and he happily hailed a taxi and ran away. I bid farewell to Director Jiang and rushed to school as well.

  "Ting Ting! I'm back!" I silently shouted in my heart and called out...

  "Zi Jiang..." Zhang Ting's voice was a bit down. Something happened?

  "Tingting! What's wrong?" I felt myself becoming restless all over, Tingting mustn't have anything happen to her!

  "Cough...cough...I think I'm getting a cold."

  "Ah, Tingting, wait for me, I'm on my way to school." After getting off the bus, I ran directly to the pharmacy to buy some cold medicine and then sprinted all the way there.

  "Hey, hey, hey! Male students are not allowed in the female dormitory!" I was stopped by the security guard at the door and only then did I remember, having almost forgotten due to my haste.

  "Security brother! My girlfriend is sick, I want to deliver medicine to her! Let me go up!" I begged him.

  "It won't work, let her come down and get it herself. Or call a roommate to get it!" This...this makes me not know what to do. I called Zhang Ting again, "Tingting, are you okay?"

  "Hmm...Kokawa...it's a bit tough..." I panicked, I really panicked.

  "Ting Ting, don't you have any energy left to walk? I'm under your dormitory building. Let your roommate send you down and I'll take you to the hospital."

  "Hmm...my roommates have all gone to class, I'll head down too..." Hearing Zhang Ting's voice, I felt like slapping myself a few times.

  "Ting Ting, wear more clothes, come down slowly, don't rush, I'm waiting for you downstairs."

  I hung up the phone and walked back and forth at the dormitory entrance... my footsteps were very disordered. Zhang Ting came down, I quickly ran over to support her. When I supported her, I felt that her hand was a bit cold, and when I touched my forehead to hers, it was also icy.

  "Ting Ting! Why don't you go see a doctor!" I felt myself getting anxious and glared at her somewhat fiercely.

  "I... I feel like it should be okay in a moment..." She saw me glare at her as if she had been wronged.

  "Let's go, I'll take you to the hospital." I held her tightly and rushed out of the door, hailed a car and headed straight to the hospital.

  "Tingting! You've got a fever of 38 degrees! Why didn't you see a doctor earlier?" I looked at Zhang Ting, who was receiving an IV drip, and wrapped my coat around her, holding her in my arms.

  "I... am afraid of injections..." Looking at her pitiful expression, I was helpless.

  "Okay, okay, it doesn't hurt, just a little while and you'll be fine. I'll take you back to rest soon!" I comforted her as I quietly watched her receive the IV drip. After finishing, I took her back to the hotel room and covered her with the quilt tightly.

  "Zihe River... I'm hungry..."

  "Alright, alright, I'll go buy some congee for my family's Tingting." After tidying up the quilt, I went downstairs to buy a bowl of thin egg drop soup and brought it back up to feed Zhang Ting.

  Scalding

  "Okay, okay, I'll blow it cooler." I fed her mouthful by mouthful, and she kept staring at my mouth with a pout... I blew the porridge cool and then fed it to her mouth-to-mouth...

  "Zihe, I want you to hold me." After finishing eating, Zhang Ting stretched out her hand and made a hugging motion. "Okay, I'm coming." I got on the bed and held her in my arms, covering her with the quilt. Zhang Ting's eyelids were a bit heavy, she didn't say anything and fell asleep... This night was actually quite quiet, she didn't kick me.

  The next day, I woke up earlier than Zhang Ting, stuck to her forehead, and the fever had gone down. My heart felt like a stone had been put down, and Zhang Ting was woken up by my movement. She immediately bit my mouth.

  "You're not disgusted by my bad breath! This feeling is quite happy."

  "Hmph! You stink!" Zhang Ting turned her head away, but I wouldn't let her off the hook. I pulled her head back and this time I was the one who bit down. "Tingting! From now on, if you're sick, you have to tell me! If something bad happens to you, I'll be heartbroken!" If I hadn't come back early, Zhang Ting wouldn't have planned on telling me at all.

  "Uh-huh...got it."

  "Ting Ting, I'm telling you, your husband has just been promoted!" I took out the certificate for Zhang Ting to see.

  "Special Task Force?" Oh yeah, I forgot it was written on the ID as Special Task Force...

  "It's just managing some miscellaneous things and whatnot." I don't know how to explain it.

  "What? Getting involved in trivial matters is also considered a promotion?" Zhang Ting looked at me with a puzzled expression.

  "Hmm, I didn't have a certificate before, but now I have one, isn't that considered a promotion?"

  "Alright, alright, my man is the most powerful, isn't that enough?! It's not a great feeling to have your own woman praise you?! Anyway, I've got it."

  "Ting Ting, take a good rest today, don't go to school." I won't let her go to school, what if she gets sicker. "Mmm, okay, I won't go, I want a hug!"

  Everyone has become weak and timid.

  When I went downstairs to buy lunch for Zhang Ting, Director Jiang called me: "Zicun, come quickly to the big office."

  "What's wrong again?" That was my first reaction, otherwise they wouldn't be calling me.

  "Uh-huh, you go ahead and talk first." Director Jiang hung up the phone, I brought the dishes upstairs, "Tingting, I'm going to the police station for a bit to take care of some things, I'll be back soon. If you're bored, just watch TV or something."

  "Uh-huh, hurry back..." I kissed her and then ran off quickly.

  A University is located at the southernmost part of our city, it's an undergraduate school. What could have happened in this university that made Director Jiang call me so urgently? When I arrived at A University, I saw many police cars entering and exiting the school gate. I rushed in, this school is quite big! I almost got lost!

  I ran around without knowing where I was, seeing students constantly running in the same direction. Following them should be correct! I ran with them in that direction and finally saw a crowd of people gathered in front. I squeezed into the crowd and saw that the front was sealed off with police tape, and many police officers were standing there. Director Jiang was talking to someone on the side.

  "You can't go in." I was just about to run through the cordon to find Director Jiang, but was pulled back by a police officer maintaining the scene. I ignored him: "Director Jiang!"

  Director Jiang saw me coming and called the policeman to leave. I rushed in and came to Director Jiang's side, where I saw something covered with a white cloth not far away.

  "What's wrong?" I looked at Director Jiang, unsure what had made him so urgent in summoning me.

  "Somebody jumped from a building." He pointed at the white cloth, and it turned out that it was covering a corpse.

  "Jumped off a building? What does that have to do with me? I'm not involved in jumping off buildings, what can I help with?"

  "Listen, this person who jumped off the building seems a bit suspicious..."

  "What's wrong? What happened?"

  "When we arrived, he was still standing by the window, but no matter what we said, he didn't respond, and suddenly jumped down." I didn't feel anything unusual at that time.

  "What's wrong with it?"

  "It's like being pushed down!"

  "Pushed down by someone? Then catch that person!" Feeling being dragged further and further away by Jiang Bureau...

  "This building doesn't even have students living in it! It's an abandoned teaching building, and the doors are all locked up. I don't know how someone managed to pry them open. And when we came, we were constantly advising him, although he didn't respond, but basically didn't see anyone around him!" Wasn't there nobody who pushed him down?

  "Which window?" I asked, following Director Jiang's hand to look over. Ah...I saw a woman quietly staring at me from the corner of a window...

  "There's a ghost in this building, Director Jiang. Seal off the building and don't let anyone approach it. Also, investigate the deceased person's information, as well as those who have recently come into contact with him, and find out why he appeared in this building." I lifted up the white cloth to take a look at the corpse, which was that of a male. His expression was twisted, as if he had seen something terrifying when he died.

  I made a call to Shengteng. Since I couldn't contact him last time, I specially prepared a mobile phone for him and he remembered it.

  "Shi Teng, where are you."

  "I'm out shopping with Ruoqin." I went, is it necessary? Not even together yet and already accompanying her every day?

  "Come over here, something's happened."

  "I'm on my way." I hung up the phone and stared at that window, but the female ghost suddenly disappeared again. I waited for Shi Teng to arrive, "Director Jiang, disperse these students, don't let them gather around, soon Shi Teng and I will go upstairs to take a look."

  If ordinary people knew about ghosts and monsters, it would be disastrous.

  "And those irrelevant police officers were also transferred away."
