[BL] I Wasn't Born Lucky (Unlimited Flow)

Chapter 157

The room that had been fine when the evil spirit left was now the source of the fire. Thick smoke rolled out of the door of the wide open room, making everyone present cover their mouths and noses, bending down and coughing violently.

Ye Zeqing poured the water in the bucket in his hand without thinking and the others followed him in dumping their bucket contents. The evil spirit's hand trembled as water helplessly beat at the door of the room.

There might be a lot of smoke in this room but the fire didn't seem to be large. It was more like an empty gun. The window inside was also wide open and raindrops were blown in from the window by the wind, accelerating the fire extinguishment. After the initial smoke passed, the smoke dispersed and everyone's vision became clear.

Jiang Linwen gasped with obvious fright. "It finally went out. I thought we would have to go out in the rain and hide in the forest. How can there be a fire here?"

Ye Zeqing was a bit calmer and he turned to look at Zheng Yi, who was the one who called to put out the fire. "What's going on?"

Zheng Yi gestured to Xiao Li with his chin. "Ask him."

Ye Zeqing wondered, "Hercule?"

Xiao Li had always been honest when questioned and he admitted it. "I set the fire."

The evil spirit, "...."

This kid was the arsonist who burned his room! It had to control itself. It looked at the other person with doubt and shock in its eyes, not showing an angry expression.

Jiang Linwen's face twitched. "Why did you set the fire?"

"To confirm the identity of the evil spirit."

The moment he said this, the others felt awe. Hercule knew the truth?

Ye Zeqing couldn't wait to ask, "Who is it?"

Xiao Li played with the lighter in his hand before finally throwing it. The lighter flew in an arc in the air and accurately fell into the hand of someone in the crowd. The other reincarnators immediately chose to stay away from this person, suspected to be the evil spirit, and spread out.

The one who caught Xiao Li's lighter was Xiao Tu. The young girl had unknowingly reached out to catch the lighter or it would've hit her directly on the head.

"Brother Hercule?" Xiao Tu asked in a panic.

"Ghost sister."

Xiao Tu, "......"

She looked up innocently at Xiao Li before looking at the other reincarnators and finally Zhen Ziqiang. "Brother, it isn't me. It really isn't me!"

"Why is it her?" Ye Zeqing moved away from Xiao Tu and came to Xiao Li.

He didn't doubt Xiao Li's words. He was just curious about why Xiao Tu was the evil spirit.

Zheng Yi, as Xiao Li's accomplice, listened to Ye Zeqing's question and also spoke. "In fact, I thought it was Jiang Linwen..."

Jiang Linwen heard his name and was agitated. He shouted in a deep voice, "I'm not the ghost! Why me?"

Zheng Yi pointed to the leather shoes on his feet. "If you close your eyes then the evil spirit is wearing leather shoes."

Jiang Linwen froze for a moment. He followed Zheng Yi's finger to his black leather shoes and then looked at President Hu. "He is also wearing it."

"You-" President Hu was suddenly pulled into the battle but he was interrupted by Zheng Yi before he could refute it.

"However, he smells of smoke. The evil spirit didn't."

President Hu sighed with relief while moving his beer belly. He stared back and forth at Jiang Linwen and Xiao Tu cautiously.
