Chapter 78: Chapter 78 The U-turn Imp

Because she was sitting in the last row of the bus, there was a step.

So after the little girl’s head fell off, it immediately rolled forward.

She hurriedly got up, trying to pick up her own head.

But the seat was too high, her short legs couldn’t reach the ground, and without her head, she lost her eyesight, so she staggered and was about to fall forward.

Shen Siyuan was quick to react, he reached out and grabbed her body, put her back on the seat, then bent down and picked up her head.

The little girl’s eyes were red, both sad and aggrieved, tears fell from her pale cheeks in large drops, landing on the ground and quickly disappearing as if they had never existed.

Shen Siyuan placed the head in the little girl’s hands, and she skillfully pressed it back onto her neck.

To ordinary people, this was a very ghostly and terrifying thing, but Shen Siyuan was not afraid, what he felt was only anger.

The murderer was really too malicious, it seemed not just a throat cut, but her head had been directly chopped off.

A ferocity arose in his heart, damn it, not human at all, how could someone harm such a cute little girl?

"Where is your home?" Shen Siyuan continued to ask.

The little girl looked confused upon hearing this.

She seemed to be thinking about this question, and after a while, she said, "Take the number 6 bus, stop after 6 stations, and that’s my home."

"Six stations?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Siyuan looked out the bus window.

He had boarded the bus at South Water Alley, and the bus had already passed two stations, four more stations and it would be Nanshan Garden Station.

But clearly, the little girl’s home couldn’t be at Nanshan Garden Station; that was a park.

Moreover, which six stations Lin Yunduo was referring to was also unclear.

For a moment, Shen Siyuan also didn’t know where the home she mentioned was.

So he said, "Come with me first, I’ll help you find your family."

The little girl nodded, then realized that her head was about to fall off again, quickly holding it with both hands.

Then she showed Shen Siyuan a silly smile.

"I caught it, it didn’t fall off."

This joke wasn’t funny at all, Shen Siyuan felt a mix of emotions in his heart.

So he continued to speak, "Can you tell me about your past?"

"Past?"

Lin Yunduo, holding her small head, seemed to fall into memories.

"Daddy and Mommy have to go to work, I’m at home alone..."

"When Mommy’s off, she takes me to the park to play..."

"Daddy is always very busy, but I like going fishing with him..."

"Hehe, I even caught a big crab..."

"Mimi, Mimi, she’s two years old this year, fluffy..."

"I miss Mimi, and Daddy and Mommy too..."

...

The little girl’s speech was disjointed, and she began to feel sad again, tears trickling down from her large eyes.

"Daddy said, brave children don’t cry, I am not a brave child..."

At this point, Lin Yunduo’s body began to tremble slightly, her body seemed to be receiving interfering signals, even becoming somewhat blurry, as if she remembered something terribly frightening.

"I am a brave child, I won’t cry, I won’t cry..."

She kept murmuring, seemingly comforting herself, slowly her body finally stabilized, this scene made Shen Siyuan feel extremely amazed, this little girl seemed very extraordinary.

"Mommy says crying makes you look like a little crybaby cat, but Mimi is really cute, not ugly at all..."

She reached out to wipe her tears, her movement a bit too large, and her neck immediately rotated 270 degrees, she hurriedly straightened her head.

"Alright, no more crying, brother promises you, I will help you find Daddy and Mommy."

Lin Yunduo heard this, immediately nodded, but almost shook her head off, quickly holding it with both hands again, looking very careful.

This appearance was funny but also pitiful.

At this moment, Shen Siyuan had arrived at his stop, so he hurriedly stood up and called out to the little girl, "Come get off the bus with me."

The little girl hesitated for a moment before standing up.

Seeing that Shen Siyuan had already walked to the rear door and was about to get off, she hurriedly followed with her short legs, walking too quickly and accidentally, her head rolled off again.

Only a headless body remained, falling to the ground, hands searching continuously on the ground.

Under the dim light, it was indescribably eerie.

Shen Siyuan quickly reached out to help her body up, then bent down to help her look for her head.

The bus driver glanced at the rearview mirror unconsciously to check if all passengers had gotten off, then saw Shen Siyuan’s strange actions and felt a bit creeped out, quickly pressing the clutch and hurriedly driving away from the stop.

"Your head always falling off is not going to work."

Shen Siyuan looked at Lin Yunduo, who held her head in her hands, feeling quite helpless.

Hearing this, Lin Yunduo’s big eyes teared up, looking very aggrieved and about to cry.

"Alright, I was just saying, don’t fall again, here, let me hold your hand." Shen Siyuan extended his hand.

Lin Yunduo saw Shen Siyuan’s outstretched palm, then released one hand and placed it in his palm.

"Let’s go."

Shen Siyuan, holding her hand, walked towards his rented room.

But just then, Lin Yunduo suddenly tugged at him and stopped walking.

"What’s wrong?" Shen Siyuan turned his head back in surprise and asked.

Lin Yunduo took her head off her neck, holding it in one hand—apparently one hand wasn’t stable enough to hold the head.

She happily said, "This way it won’t fall off."

Shen Siyuan: ...

"Isn’t there any other way?" Shen Siyuan asked.

At his words, Lin Yunduo subconsciously tried to shake her head, then realized the head was in her arms, so she swayed her head in her hand back and forth.

Shen Siyuan was amused by her actions, feeling not the slightest horror.

Shen Siyuan was quite curious about ghosts, so he asked Lin Yunduo many more questions.

However, the little one’s life after death was very mundane, mostly spent getting on and off buses, looking for her parents, repeating the process over and over, not knowing how she had persevered.

Of course, during this process, she met many different people.

According to her, babies turned into big brothers and big sisters, and then these siblings turned into old grandparents.

But all these years, no one could see her, talk to her, or hold her hand.

This made her very happy.

"Big brother, you’re so amazing," she said.

Lin Yunduo used her hand to lift up the head in her arms to look at Shen Siyuan, her big eyes filled with joy.

"Watch the front."

Shen Siyuan reminded her, then led her into the dim alley.

Shen Siyuan could distinctly feel that Lin Yunduo, holding his hand, suddenly gripped it tighter, her body tensing up and trembling slightly.

It seemed that the dim alley had left her with a profound psychological trauma.

"Don’t be scared, I’m here."

Shen Siyuan simply crouched down and touched her little head.

The hand he held was released, and Lin Yunduo immediately put her own head back on her neck.

Then she stared blankly at Shen Siyuan, because it had been so long since anyone touched her little head; previously, her father, mother, and brother loved to pat her little melon head the most.

Tears swirled in her eyes, looking as though she was about to cry again.

"Why are you crying again?"

"I’m not crying," the little one stubbornly said.

"Then big brother wronged you, Lin Yunduo didn’t cry, Lin Yunduo is the strongest."

"My dad and mom call me Duoduo."

"Duoduo? That’s a lovely name."

Shen Siyuan thought for a while, then summoned the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, formed a finger formula, and in Duoduo’s stunned expression, he directly absorbed her into the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.
