Chapter 363: Chapter 16 The Location of W City

And it was at this moment that Lin Sunzhu suddenly felt the severed finger on her chest vibrating noticeably.

What was going on?

While Lin Sunzhu was still feeling puzzled, she subconsciously picked up the roll call list.

For some reason, looking at the six names on the roll call list, a chilling sensation began to emerge in her heart.

Even after consuming the Cursed Flesh, along with the candle and severed finger, Lin Sunzhu still didn’t feel any sense of security.

"Qin... Qin... Qin Bosheng..."

This time, Lin Sunzhu spoke the name with a voice that could be described as somewhat trembling.

...

"Come on in, don’t be shy, treat this place as your own home," Wen Xiaoshu offered Dai Lin a cup of freshly brewed Pu’er tea.

She had rarely seen her husband Fang Zhou bring doctor colleagues home before. And this doctor named Dai Lin seemed to have a fairly good relationship with her husband.

"Thank you," Dai Lin glanced at Wen Xiaoshu and her daughter Xiaomeng on the side and said, "Director Fang, you..."

"Just call me Fang Zhou. At home, let’s not talk about work," Fang Zhou interjected.

"Alright. Fang... Zhou, your house is really tastefully decorated. I’d like to buy a place like this someday."

If Dai Lin saved up Spiritual Therapy Points, buying a house in his hometown wouldn’t be a problem.

"Um..." Hearing this, Wen Xiaoshu, however, showed a somewhat embarrassed expression.

This had been the marital home of Fang Zhou and his first wife, Mei Yang. She had heard that the house was almost entirely paid for by Fang Zhou. The income from the private hospital where he worked was very generous. However, the decoration was entirely discussed between his wife, Mei Yang, and the decorating company.

Xiaomeng was also born in this house. It’s just that she lost her mother forever before she could have a clear memory of her. After that, Wen Xiaoshu moved in here with Fang Zhou when they got married.

It had to be said, the house’s decoration really had taste, which proved too difficult an issue for Wen Xiaoshu, who only knew how to bury herself in writing. Originally, her parents had hoped to sell the house and contribute some money to buy a new one. However, Fang Zhou seemed to have a certain attachment to this house, and in the end, they did not choose to buy a new marital home.

What she didn’t know was that one of the reasons Fang Zhou wanted to stay was that he believed that one day, his wife Mei Yang, transformed into a ghost, might return here in search of him and their child. If they moved, she would not be able to see the child. Fang Zhou had encountered too many such cases before, where ghosts, in their intense regret and pain, would turn into even more terrifying resentful spirits or fierce ghosts. And if his wife’s ghost appeared, he would be able to send her back to the world of the dead immediately.

Then, Wen Xiaoshu noticed that Fang Zhou wanted to discuss something with Dai Lin that he might not want her to know about. So she stood up and said, "Well, I’ll go and start preparing dinner. Fang Zhou, Doctor Dai, I bought a fish at the market, do you prefer it steamed or braised in soy sauce?"

"I’m fine with either," said Dai Lin, as a guest would naturally not be picky.

"Same here," Fang Zhou stated as well.

"Great. You’ve had a long day."

"No worries, it wasn’t tough at all."

Watching Wen Xiaoshu leave, Dai Lin suddenly had a strange feeling.

Fang Zhou, as a husband, seemed a bit too courteous to Wen Xiaoshu. There was always something a little mismatched about them.

A wife might not expect her husband to say "You’ve had a long day" to her. That phrase seemed more fitting for Dai Lin, the guest, to say.

However, Dai Lin didn’t have the time to contemplate this further and instead asked Fang Zhou, "How’s it going?"

It was evident that Fang Zhou had summoned him because he wanted to utilize the power of the Devil’s Eye.

And now... Milan was also within the space of Dai Lin’s right eye.

"Well," Fang Zhou continued, "I called you here just in case. Although you’re only a resident doctor, there are many things that perhaps only you can help me with."

"Can you tell me in detail about your analysis of the curse this patient has suffered?"

"I’m afraid it can’t be simply explained by the term ’curse.’" Fang Zhou took out a notebook and flipped it open; it contained various details about Devil’s Eye Mansion as told to him by Lin Sunzhu.

"I investigated Devil’s Eye Mansion. The actual owner of the mansion is overseas and it’s very difficult to find out their specific identity information. And since the dean called me to ask me not to investigate this matter, I think he must know who the owner of Devil’s Eye Mansion really is."

"Even the dean is so wary of this place?"

"Not necessarily. It should be said, it’s not worth it. You should understand a fact, the goal of most paranormal doctors is simply to earn Spiritual Therapy Points, then better their chances of survival."

"This time it also involves children, seven children." This was the matter Dai Lin cared about the most: "Even if only one can be saved, it’s good."

Dai Lin had been through too many situations where he went into the tiger’s den, only to end up not being able to save anyone.

And this time, it involved a group of children, some even underage!

"I feel the same as you." Fang Zhou said, glancing at his daughter, "I absolutely do not want any children to die."

Through that severed finger, Fang Zhou’s blood could resonate with something inside Devil’s Eye Mansion.

And now, inside Devil’s Eye Mansion, Lin Sunzhu should be teaching a class.

Previously, Lin Sunzhu told Fang Zhou about a strange phrase Qin Qingji had said.

"It"...

...

"With the full outbreak of the Second World War..."

Lin Sunzhu nervously watched every student in the room. Although they took notes seriously and participated eagerly in discussions, in her eyes, these children always gave her a strange feeling.

Their eyes...

The eyes of every single one of them were so dry they lacked any moisture.

It was still the same even now.

"I want to ask you something, Teacher Lin." At that moment, Qin Bosheng raised his hand and asked: "It’s about the map. W City, back in 1941, it wasn’t part of the administrative region of our province, right?"

"Yes, that’s correct." Lin Sunzhu felt something was off.

Why are they all so interested in this question?

"But now, W City is..."

"Bosheng." Qin Qingji interrupted him: "There’s no need to talk about this now. ’It’ is not listening to us at this moment."

"It" now?

"Oh." Qin Bosheng nodded, saying: "Sorry, Qingji."

"Bosheng." Qin Qingji turned his head slightly, looked at Qin Bosheng: "Next time, speak about such things only after I give you instructions. You may want to gain our father’s favor, but that doesn’t mean you can receive more blessings from ’it’."

Qin Bosheng nodded upon hearing this.

"I, I understand, Qingji."

Lin Sunzhu started to realize something.

The thing they were most concerned about... was the true position of W City on the map.

They intended to communicate this matter to the so-called "it"!
