Chapter 179: Chapter 179: Marching Forward Side by Side
"Long time no see, Little Duoduo."
Le Yao gently patted Duoduo’s small head with her hand.
"Where have you been, Sister Yaoyao?"
Duoduo’s voice carried a hint of crying when she asked.
"Even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand. Anyway, I went to a very distant place," Le Yao said.
Le Yao was a very beautiful girl, with a graceful figure, flowing hair and a great temperament. The only thing was her pale complexion devoid of any blood color, but, well, she was a ghost, having blood color would be strange.
"How about you, Little Duoduo? How have you been lately? Still... sitting non-stop, wait." She finally noticed something was amiss.
"Duoduo, is your neck okay? Your little head isn’t falling off anymore?"
She noticed a faint blue line on Duoduo’s neck, and the originally fierce scars had all disappeared. She reached out to touch it directly.
However, Duoduo caught her hand with a small grip.
"Don’t touch, it’s very dangerous."
"Dangerous? How so?" Le Yao was very curious.
Duoduo thought for a moment, then stepped back, supporting her plump cheeks with both hands, and pushed up, pulling her little head off.
Then Le Yao understood why Duoduo said it was dangerous, because from the spot of Duoduo’s wound, a ghostly blue flame was spurting out. Even though they were some distance apart, she could feel a fear emanating from her soul, and a tingling sensation spread faintly across her body.
She couldn’t remember the last time she had felt this way.
"What...what’s going on?"
She thought back to the way Duoduo had thrown herself into her arms just now.
She realized that something must have happened to Duoduo.
No longer the little kid who used to follow her around, whose head would often roll off and start crying.
Duoduo skillfully put her head back on her neck, turning it into a faint blue line again, as if she’d put on a necklace on her neck, giving it a bit of aesthetic appeal.
"Because I met Brother, not only did he help me fix my head, he also helped me find my mom and dad..." Duoduo spoke with a touch of pride in her tone.
"Brother?"
Le Yao was puzzled. Was it someone Duoduo had met later?
"Right, I’ll take you to see Brother."
Duoduo clapped her hands excitedly, thinking about the mission Shen Siyuan had given her, which had turned out to be a stroke of luck.
Duoduo happily spread her arms out and spun in circles.
"Duoduo, who is this Brother you speak of?" Le Yao asked hesitantly.
The person who helped Duoduo reattach her neck, and the ghostly blue flames on Duoduo’s wound, made Le Yao instinctively feel danger, all of which told her that this person was definitely not an ordinary person, nor an ordinary ghost.
"A really good person, Brother Banner Master is very nice, Sister Yaoyao, if you have any wishes you want to fulfill, Brother can help you with them..."
"Wishes?" Le Yao hesitated.
Duoduo stepped forward and pulled on her arm, starting to walk ahead.
"Duoduo, can you tell me more about how you met him? And also, the thing about your mom and dad..."
"Okay..."
Duoduo was very happy, so much so that she hopped and skipped as she walked.
-----------------
"Uh, you mean to say, Mr. Shen assigned you a task to ferry a spirit, so you came to ask if I have any unfinished wishes?"
Grandpa Liu spoke with an embarrassed expression.
Xiao Yue nodded. She had not been dead for long, knew few ghosts, and even fewer that she was familiar with. Besides Duoduo and Dou Dou, the one she was most acquainted with after a few days was Grandpa Liu.
Xiao Yue thought Grandpa Liu was a very good, very nice old man, which was why when Shen Siyuan gave them the task to ferry a spirit, she immediately thought of Grandpa Liu.
Grandpa Liu: ...
"Really, thank you, but Grandpa here will just not... uh..." Grandpa Liu suddenly had a thought.
Then, he leaned in close to Xiao Yue and asked quietly, "Can any wish really come true?"
Xiao Yue hesitated for a moment, but still nodded her head.
"Well, I do have a wish, but you can’t let Lady Huang know about this..." Grandpa Liu whispered mischievously.
Xiao Yue looked at him with some suspicion seeing his demeanor.
He’s not going to do anything bad, is he? But even if it’s something bad, there’s nothing to fear, we have Banner Master Brother.
Meanwhile, Officer Xue from Hailan Police Station was sweating profusely.
Who exactly is Shen Siyuan? Just took a statement from him, first there was a lawyer presenting, and now there are people from Xiajing coming, is it really necessary to be this exaggerated?
It’s just a minor civil dispute, after all.
"I didn’t do anything to him, just took a statement, and there was a lawyer present at the time..."
"There are records and video of the statement-taking, you can look at them anytime..."
"My attitude was very good, I showed him respect and there was no inappropriate behavior..."
...
Officer Xue was trying hard to explain, and Song Meixian, on the other side, listened gently and with a smiling face, occasionally asking a question, which, however, put a lot of pressure on him.
Sitting to the side, Wan Xinghui was watching the video records, while Zhong Xiaonan was looking around out of sheer boredom.
"Team leader, there’s no big problem," Wan Xinghui whispered to Song Meixian.
Hearing this, Song Meixian gave Officer Xue a deep look. When Wan Xinghui said there wasn’t a big problem, it meant there was a small problem.
However, she wasn’t intending to delve into it, but said instead, "Thank you for your time, Officer Xue. I’ve asked all my questions, you may return to your post. But since it’s just a minor civil dispute, I hope it can be handled quickly."
"Sure, sure..." Officer Xue quickly agreed.
The other party had shown national security credentials; he was just a minor police officer, what else could he do.
Further, he guessed some of the twists and turns involved, and the fact that the other party didn’t delve into it made him want to burn incense and bow to the dharma; he wouldn’t dare have any more scheming.
"Let’s go."
Song Meixian stood up and signaled the two to follow, preparing to visit Lady Huang.
"Although Lady Huang’s inheritance isn’t powerful, her status is very special. So when we get there, you two must show her respect," Song Meixian warned.
"Don’t worry, team leader, are we that kind of people? Even if the other party is just an ordinary person, given their age, we would show respect."
"That would be best," Song Meixian’s tone remained gentle.
Just as Song Meixian stepped out, Officer Xue found Lawyer Zhao’s business card left earlier and made a call.
"Lawyer Zhao, hello, sorry to interrupt your work," Officer Xue’s tone was many times better than before.
When Zhao Dezhu received Officer Xue’s call, he felt it strange, wondering if something else had happened.
He hadn’t even had time to contact anyone to help with the matter.
Just then, he heard the other party say, "The victim, no... actually, those two injured parties were at fault first, having failed to attract customers, they wanted to resort to violence. Once their injuries heal, we will pursue their responsibility. As for Mr. Shen, it was legitimate self-defense. Please relay this to Mr. Shen..."
"Oh... okay..."
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Dezhu was still unclear about what had happened.
Did someone else intervene? He thought so.
Regardless, he decided to inform Ruan Hongzhuang first.
He picked up his phone that he had just put down, ready to make a call, but suddenly stopped.
For he vaguely saw a little boy squatting at his office door, and the figure was so familiar.
Zhao Dezhu’s face suddenly turned extremely pale.
