✨ CHAPTER 366 ✨
Shen Lingzhi hurried to the scene of the incident, the scene was cordoned off, and there were many neighbors around.
Police cars occupied a row, and red and blue flashing lights reflected the entire street.
There were only bits and pieces left in the night sky, and she stood dazedly among the chattering crowd, as if her soul had been evacuated, and she couldn't hear anything. A black body bag was transported from the building she knew well, onto the icy corpse cart.
Brother Xu Ye was dead.
How is this possible? They had only been apart for twenty days. At that time, he and his sister stood side by side, and the warm sun poured over their shoulders. She saw Yingying's broken light in his eyes. She was very beautiful. will be with Ning Jiaer soon.
How could it go away like this?
Shen Lingzhi was so uncomfortable that her tears fell, and Tang Sinian put a coat on her and hugged her into his arms.
He was also surprised by this incident. The subordinates of the Tang family were well-trained, and it was said that seamless 24-hour staring would not cause major problems. In the end, no one expected that the place where he was killed was the one that everyone ignored—Xu Ye's house.
Xu Ye was hit with several knives, and the knives saw bones.
In fact, the first person who discovered Xu Ye's body was Ning Jia'er. Not long after Ning Jia'er went upstairs, the agent waiting downstairs received a terrified call from Ning Jia'er and hurried up to cover her little master. Go, avoid being caught by the media, and wait until you are far away before ordering someone to call the police.
After Shen Lingzhi went back, his mind was filled with the dark body bag, tossing and turning over and over again all night.
Suddenly, she bounced off the bed with a carp.
"No, that's not Brother Xu Ye, he's a cat. If he dies, he won't keep his human form!"
Xie Mu changed his form and put on his bathrobe and came out from the bathroom, "I've seen it, it's him."
"But he... …”
"That's right, the people of the Hongmeng tribe are essentially attached to cats by reviving their corpses, and they can no longer have a human body - generally speaking, it is true. But it is not completely impossible to create a new body. In our place, there is a mysterious force called Rakshasa, It is a fair businessman, you can get anything you want from it, but you have to pay the same price. Xu Ye should have made a deal with Rakshasa, shaped the human body, and truly became a human being."
After a tossing, he finally died.
Shen Lingzhi didn't listen to Xie Mu's explanation.
What is even more frightening is that several murder cases began to appear in Haisu City, and the victims died in a very similar way to Xu Ye.
Shen Lingzhi was frightened and frightened. As soon as he closed his eyes, the days and nights before he was killed in his previous life appeared in his mind.
It was also a joyous February. People were immersed in the joy of the New Year, but she was harassed and threatened by murderers again and again. Under the sky full of fireworks, she died alone in a cold and empty apartment.
The gears of fate seem to be gradually overlapping with the previous life.
Shen Lingzhi began to feel that someone was spying on her.
Ji Chang Gu and Tang Sinian both deployed people near her apartment, and quickly investigated the whereabouts of the process. Fu Jingxing and Lu Shaofan tried their best to come over to accompany her, Xie Mu even followed her every step of the way, but they couldn't stop the peeping. Horror.
She counted the days tormented, thinking that the threatening letter should be coming soon, right?
There are so many people in ambush downstairs this time, as long as the source of the threatening letter can be traced, things will be much easier.
As a result, before the threatening letter was received, Shen Lingzhi unexpectedly met someone while shopping.
Cheng Rang!
Cheng Rang obviously saw her first, so he stopped the car and walked quickly to her.
He was wearing a long khaki trench coat, and his eyes were slightly tired.
It can be seen that he is in a hurry. The clothes he wears are always ironed without a trace of creases, but this time I saw two or three.
Cheng Rang raised his arm first when he came to her, as if he was going to hug her, but quickly put his hand down.
"Sorry, this dress was not washed for two days, it's dirty."
Really, just "dirty"?
Shen Lingzhi observed his expression, which was as gentle as ever.
Reunited after a long absence, they went to a nearby cafe to catch up.
Cheng Rang's eyes never took his eyes off the girl. She looked thinner and had dark circles under her eyes, but everything about her remained basically the same. He was familiar with her from head to toe. That's fine, as long as she comes back, everything can start all over again.
At this time, Shen Lingzhi answered the phone, and her expression changed suddenly.
The look in his eyes was uncontrollable horror.
He didn't like her looking at her like that, very much.
Cheng Rang tried to ask the reason, but Shen Lingzhi hurriedly picked up the bag and said that he had something to go. He didn't understand what happened, and he didn't want to force her. He held her arm and wanted to ask her for her contact information.
She threw him away suddenly, as if he was such a filthy and horrible thing.
She hates him, she doesn't want to see him.
Cheng Rang's long-suppressed mood finally got out of control, no longer caring about gentleman etiquette, and tightly imprisoning the girl who was about to escape in his arms.
"Zhizhi, what's wrong with you? What did I do wrong, tell me?"
His voice was hoarse and sad, and she was good-natured, otherwise she would have comfortably comforted him long ago. But now, she seems to treat him as an enemy, struggling and beating desperately, "Let me go, Cheng Rang! You let me go first!"
In fact, the only paranoid thing in his life is to get her, knowing that it is a crazy and irrational emotion, but it is uncontrollable. "I'll never let it go for the rest of my life."
Shen Lingzhi was stunned for a moment, and struggled even more intensely, "Mad, you lunatic!" The pulling of the two attracted the attention of the entire cafe.
Although the time is only in the morning, it is still a working day, and the occupancy rate of the cafe has reached half.
Some people took pictures and videos with their mobile phones, some people gathered around to persuade them, and the scene was full of chaos.
In this chaos, no one noticed that a tall black shadow stood up from the corner and went straight in the direction of Cheng Rang and Shen Lingzhi. His pace seemed unhurried, his breathing became heavier and heavier.
Someone was hit on the shoulder by the shadow, and was about to scold the other for "no long eyes", when he saw the man draw a sharp dagger from his sleeve.
The target is the man and woman who are still pulling!
Murder!
Before he could let out a scream, the sound of gunshots rang out, and the lights above the black shadow cracked.
"Throw away the weapon, raise your hand."
The cold subwoofer sounded from behind the shadow.
The air fell into a brief silence, followed by boiling water falling into a frying pan and frying—the crowd of onlookers ran away in fright.
As soon as Shen Lingzhi turned his head, he saw a man not far away. The man took off his hood, raised his gun with one hand, and his eyes were as cold as a wolf.
She opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Brother!"
Xie Mu, who was the only ambush at the scene, was also taken aback, how could Shen Wangbai suddenly appear, and there was no surprised expression on his face, as if he knew that this person was the murderer.
The appearance of Shen Wangbai reassured Shen Lingzhi, but when she turned her eyes from Shen Wangbai to the shadow, the smile on the corner of her mouth froze.
Hei Ying took off his sunglasses and looked at her with a slight smile, "Long time no see, Zhizhi."
Shen Lingzhi opened and closed his lips several times, and finally squeezed out a few words from his throat, "Xu Ye...Brother..."
His breathing froze for a while
Shen Wangbai's eyes looking at Xu Ye became more and more cold.
Her lips trembled and she asked Shen Wangbai, "Brother, did you... already know?"
"Well."
In fact, Shen Wangbai had long suspected Xu Ye.
At the beginning, Meng Shan's death was considered to be a suicide because of fear of crime. Indeed, the suicide scene was perfect. The suicide was written, and all the valuables were sold, as if there was no nostalgia for this world. However, the forensic doctor found a small amount of sawdust on Meng Shan's nails. After comparison, it was consistent with the material and scratches on the head of her bed.
If it is suicide, why does the victim who died on the sofa show signs of struggling in bed?
He also found a cat hair in Meng Shan's house.
Thinking about an ashtray thrown out at Meng Ying's murder scene, there was cat blood left on it, and he targeted Xu Ye, who was closely related to Meng Shan. He suspected that the mastermind behind the scenes was actually Xu Ye.
So back from the battlefield in the Middle East, he has been monitoring Xu Ye.
In order not to frighten the snake, he forbade his sister not to show up when he saw his sister who had come back from the dead.
In the end, Emperor Tian paid off and stayed dormant to this day, and finally waited until Xu Ye showed his actions in public.
"No..."
Shen Lingzhi took a step back and shook his head. It is more disbelief than fear of anger.
She actually suspected Xu Ye, because Zhuang Chengsi told her that her mother was pregnant with a twin, but her brother died just before birth. It is also said that when they were together, they had imagined the names of their future children. The girl's name was Zhuang Mingzhi, and the boy's name was Zhuang Mingye, which represented their "golden branches and jade leaves". For some unknown reason, the date of her birth was filled in by her dead brother.
Then she thought of the words of Master He Qian.
If her brother hadn't died and became a cat, Ji Changgu would most likely have exchanged his life with her brother at that time.
The person who really had that fate was clearly going to kill her.
After she thought Xu Ye was really dead, she dispelled her doubts.
The scene with Cheng Rang just now was a scene that Ji Changgu specially arranged for her to play. Ji Changgu learned that she had seen Cheng Rang, and told her on the phone to show fear to Cheng Rang and let the murderer reveal himself.
He figured out the murderer's psychology. If the murderer's ultimate goal was to take her as his own, he would never allow anyone other than himself to bully her. Of course, her disgust and escape were even more unacceptable.
This test really tries to find the murderer.
But she still couldn't believe it, why it was him, he was so kind to her, and he clearly liked Ning Jia'er.
He is versatile, gentle and lovely, how can he be a big devil who kills without blinking an eye?
Xu Ye was pointed at by the gun, but his expression was unexpectedly calm, and there was even a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Zhizhi, you have coffee foam on the corner of your mouth."
He said with a chuckle, as if nothing had happened, and still looked at her as gently as before.
Shen Lingzhi was suddenly a little scared of him.
She wiped and wiped the corners of her mouth, but still did not wipe it clean, Xu Ye helplessly raised the corners of her lips and walked towards her step by step.
"I'll help you."
He walked slowly to her and raised his hand gently to touch her lips with his fingertips.
Shen Lingzhi looked at him with wide eyes, and there was already a mist in his eyes.
"Zhizhi..."
He whispered softly, as if looking at the most precious treasure in the world.
Just when his fingertips were about to touch Shen Lingzhi, he suddenly stabbed the girl again with the hand holding the knife.
"Zhizhi!!!"
There were exclamations from the men around, and Shen Lingzhi also stepped back and tilted his head in fright, but he did not expect that the expected pain did not come.
Shen Wangbai fired.
Bang bang bang, three times in a row, without hesitation at all.
Xu Ye's hands, feet, and chest were pierced by bullets, and blood poured out recklessly.
Shen Lingzhi turned around in a daze, but found that Xu Ye didn't have any madness or obsession on his face, just smiled relievedly and looked at her gently.
"Twig... Twig..."
His body fell slowly, Shen Lingzhi's mind went blank, and he subconsciously caught his shaky body.
☆☆☆
Finally... I wrote about the murderer (holding a handful of moved tears)
----
✨ CHAPTER 367 : Finale Part 1 ✨
At this moment, the cafe was surprisingly quiet, so quiet that Xu Ye could hear everyone's breathing. The feeling of the bullet tearing through his body was paralyzing, and he felt his body fall into a familiar and soft embrace. When he looked up, it was the face he was thinking about day and night.
Look, things are happening so fast that his branches are terrified.
Warm blood slowly seeped out from Xu Ye's wound, Shen Lingzhi was short of breath, and was speechless for a while. Xu Ye stretched out his trembling hand and wanted to touch her face, but he was afraid that she would resist her contact, and finally he only touched her outline and breathed faintly.
The massive blood loss made him dizzy, and the outline in front of him overlapped with the girl in his memory.
It is said that people see their past life before they die. It turns out that it is true, he really sees it.
He saw the time when he and Zhizhi lived together, when they were the closest.
In fact, he really hated her at first. They were twins, and he was her brother, but he was strangled in his mother's womb by her umbilical cord. His parents shed only a few tears when they learned of his death, and then gave her all the favor.
He is attached to her, eats, drinks and plays with her, learns to walk, and learns to talk.
They complimented her, kissed her, took great care of her, and taught her to call another little boy "brother".
And he, no one mentioned his name, Shen Jiangye.
He was completely forgotten by them.
At that time, Zhizhi didn't know that he existed. She would put flowers with dew in vases, and she would distribute the only food she had to stray cats on the roadside. Hums to her sick brother, makes faces in the mirror and smiles silly.
Even though he and her were looking at the same world, she always smiled so happily.
It's getting more and more annoying.
He began to hate her, why did he take away his life and still live like nothing? Why does she get everything without trying? Why didn't she remember that he was her real brother at all?
He tried to control the body, choking her with his hands and hitting her head with a brick.
She is lucky, every time someone bumps into and rescues her, she will thank you, then smile sweetly and say, "I'm fine."
Oh, okay? Tears came out of the pain, how could it be okay?
Even when her parents died, she often hid herself and cried secretly, and then said to others, "I'm fine."
He didn't understand, how could this girl act so well, and when will he be able to get rid of her shadow?
Later in an accident, he finally got his wish.
His soul was knocked out of her body and attached to a ragdoll cat. The cat was raised by a girl named Ning Jiaer in the orphanage. He was taken back and finally left the girl he hated.
This cat is amazing, can transform into a human, he is ecstatic - he finally has a body of his own.
The orphanage was not far from the Shen's house, and he would sneak out from time to time to see if his blood-related younger sister had a worse life.
But she didn't, and she often heard her brother's eldest brother cry in a short way, which made him upset.
He was angry with the stupid sister because she never knew what she was missing.
So when Ning Jia'er called his brother, he acquiesced. The reason was very simple. Since Shen Lingzhi recognized another person as his elder brother, he recognized the other person as his younger sister. Everything she neglected today will be regretted in the future.
This tug of war continued until one afternoon.
As usual, he flipped through the books while monitoring Shen Lingzhi.
She suddenly rushed into his arms like a cloud, leaned against him with her soft body, rubbed her eyes with his clothes, endured crying and asked him for help, "Brother, my eyes are in the sand, you help me blow Just a moment..."
"Zhizhi, brother is here." Shen Wangbai appeared in time and took away the silly sister who was holding the wrong person.
He remained stunned for a long time after they left, his heart like a bell being slapped ferociously.
Brother, she is calling him brother.
At this moment, he finally understood that the resentment and annoyance in his heart just wanted her to recognize... He was her real brother.
With a new goal, he moved next door to Shen's house, tried every means to get close to her, and took her away from Shen Wangbai.
But he found in frustration that no matter how good he was to her, as long as Shen Wang called her in vain, she would leave him without hesitation.
He began to imitate Shen Wangbai's dress and behavior as much as possible, secretly creating accidents, trying to kill him and occupy his body.
It still failed.
Shen Wangbai seemed to be blessed by the gods, and after finally moving his car, he was able to encounter a huge series of car accidents shortly after the car started, and he was able to catch up.
The more he wanted to get rid of that person, the more he scratched his heart.
Just when he was helpless, Meng Shan appeared.
Meng Shan told him that he fell in love with Zhizhi. A woman's love for a man comes from worship. A girl can't refuse a hero, especially one who has saved herself. Only by killing those who want to hurt Zhizhi, will Zhizhi love him. Meng Shan also said that if he made up his mind, she would definitely help him track down Zhizhi.
Thinking of the blood pouring out of Xu Ye's mouth, how ridiculous, he actually believed such absurd words.
At the beginning, he would also ask for evidence. After witnessing Meng Ying bullying Zhizhi many times, he listened to Meng Shan's command to kill Meng Ying. After that, Zhizhi really took the initiative to break with Shen Wangbai. He was overjoyed and thought he had seen hope.
He went to kill, and Meng Shan pointed to where to kill, because they were all people who hurt Zhizhi.
He also studied girl manga for her, participated in various clubs, and learned about the needs and wants of girls in many ways.
So over the years, the men around Mingming Zhizhi have been changing one by one, and he seems very calm - he has learned to suppress his anger, and package himself as a cheerful freelancer, step by step to let her relax Fang opened his heart, and Meng Shan would beat the mandarin ducks and break them up, he believed that he would soon get what he wanted.
After years of hard work, he thought he was going to get the branches.
Looking at her vivid smile, he could already imagine that they would sit next to each other and watch the sunset and sunrise after many years.
It was not until Tang Sinian found out that Meng Shan planned to kill Zhizhi that he was wrong.
So wrong, so wrong.
Meng Shan didn't plan to help him at all, and even deliberately made him unable to catch up with Zhizhi, just to make him her permanent loyal murder tool. And this woman whom he regarded as his life mentor and who gave all his trust, even pushed him out as a shield after the plot was broken.
So he killed Meng Shan.
He thought he would be a little bit unbearable, but in fact he was completely numb from body to heart.
Because he really thought his Zhizhi was dead and was killed by Ji Changgu.
In the hot summer days, on countless moonlit nights, he sat beside the bed with heartache to the point of sleepless nights, wiping the gun back and forth soberly over and over again, intending to kill Ji Changgu before committing suicide.
Zhizhi, don't be afraid, brother will go down to accompany you soon - he smiled softly and said to her in his heart.
Unexpectedly, on the night he went to visit Ning Jiaer in the capital, he and Zhizhi met again.
He hugged her tightly and tried his best to keep her from seeing his tears.
What followed was like an illusory dream, Zhizhi promised him and became his girlfriend.
He will never forget that moment, when his heart was about to jump out of his chest, and her eyes were brighter than the Milky Way in the sky.
He succeeded, and finally got his branches.
He thought that God finally took pity on him and that he and Zhizhi would be together forever, but reality slapped him again.
His Zhizhi is cheating with other men.
They were finally together, and he still had the fear that she was going to leave him.
Why? He asked himself again and again, what was wrong with him? Bed skills?
He could feel that Zhizhi didn't get involved every time he slept with him.
He looked up a lot of information, watched discs, and even despicably chose to enter her body shortly after her and Lu Shaofan's love orgasm, and borrowed Lu Shaofan to ignite her pleasure and continue the violent orgasm.
He was jealous of Lu Shaofan, but also understood that he couldn't be impatient.
In fact, as long as she is still by his side, he can open one eye and close the other.
But his branches... let him down after all.
She actually made him the dishes he hated on purpose, and she still cooks them every day and every day. He told her a long, long time ago that what she hated, he hated, and what she liked, he liked. She did this clearly to make him hate her and force him to take the initiative to break up.
But how could he break up with her?
For so many years, he had covered her hands with blood, endured the appearance of one man after another by her side, and carefully arranged it until now, how could he give up?
He remembered that he had asked Zhizhi, do you want to be a cat? She shook her head. Although being a cat is happy and being raised by someone, she prefers to be a human being. She can control life freely, walk a long way, and see a wider world.
Most importantly, being a cat can't have kids with the ones she likes, she likes cute babies.
Yes, even his race is infertile.
He knew that he did not have a human body, was incomplete, and could not give Zhizhi what he wanted.
What should I do? He wanted to be with Zhizhi too much.
So he found the Rakshasa - the legendary mysterious power that gathers all things in the world, a black gas that is neither male nor female.
He made a contract with it and created a body against the sky.
However, going against the sky must pay a price: he needs to let Zhizhi give birth to two children within 300 days, and dedicate the children to Rakshasa as a tribute, otherwise he will be lost.
The price was heavy, but he had no choice.
In order to focus on creating people, he deliberately brought Zhizhi back to Haisu City, away from Lu Shaofan, tampered with her letter to Cheng Rang, and led Cheng Rang to a remote mountainous area. After such a plan, Zhizhi was finally his own again.
Rakshasa's body is unstable, and it is not easy to get Zhizhi pregnant.
For this reason, he quietly gave Zhizhi medicine, making her drowsy and unable to go anywhere, accepting his cultivation.
The emperor paid off, and the child was finally pregnant.
Even Rakshasa came out to remind him dutifully to take good care of this hard-won fetus.
But Zhizhi was so cruel, she actually killed their child.
Didn't even ask him a question.
The child is gone, and it will be too late to give birth. He is destined to be dissipated.
Rakshasa found that there was no tribute, and took most of his few lives on the spot - there were thirty days before he would die.
He was unwilling to die in such a bleak way, and wanted to spend the rest of his life with Zhizhi.
So he made another deal with Rakshasa.
Rakshasa told him that as long as he killed Zhizhi at midnight and then drank her blood ten seconds before she died, they could still be a pair of lonely ghosts. The exchange condition is that he needs to help Rakshasa kill three people born in the yin year, the yin moon, the yin day, and the yin day, and use their blood as a tribute.
He answered without hesitation.
His hands are already stained with sin, and killing a few more makes no difference. He is not afraid of the judgment he may face in the future, even the eternal torture of Avici Hell, and now he just wants to be with Zhizhi.
In fact, since he started killing the first person for Zhizhi, there is no way out.
He went back to the Ragdoll and planned a suspended animation, killing three people.
Then, according to what Rakshasa said, he took the hair from himself and Zhizhi's body to him-before he pulled Zhizhi into a lonely ghost, he still needed Rakshasa to do the same for them both.
Everything is settled, and then as long as the blame for killing Zhizhi is blamed on those men, things will be complete.
He was full of joy and thought that this time finally no one could stop him and Zhizhi.
But reality threw him a basin of ice water again.
Rakshasa told him that he couldn't do this method, and he and Zhizhi could only live together.
That is, if he dies, Zhizhi must live, and if he lives, Zhizhi must die. They can never be together.
They are like two intersecting straight lines, they only meet for a short time, and there is no possibility for them to overlap.
"Why? What's this for??"
He asked Rakshasa in a frenzy, his hands passing through the cloud of black air, only feeling the cold deep into the bones.
Rakshasa is a pure businessman, without any emotional fluctuations, he said indifferently, he didn't know, the destiny he found was like this.
Destiny is so, so is destiny.
He calculated his whole life, but in the end he was no match for an illusory destiny.
He thought it was ridiculous. He laughed for a long time in an empty room alone, to the point of piercing his heart and tears.
For several days, he didn't close his eyes, like a ghost following Zhizhi, watching her washing dishes in the kitchen, drying clothes on her toes on the balcony, and massaging the little black cat in her arms while staring at the sun. She doesn't seem to be in good spirits, but she lives her life very seriously and smiles like flowers.
Even after so many years, he still doesn't understand why she can laugh so happily no matter what?
Until one day, he saw Zhizhi's red eyes and muttered to the person on the other end of the phone, "I must give Brother Xu Ye the best funeral. Brother Xu Ye is always taking care of people, but he has not suffered much. Take care of him. I want to help him with make-up and grooming before he is buried. Brother Xu Ye never expresses what he likes. I want to bring him what I like so that he will not be so lonely on the road to Huangquan. Brother Xu Ye has no family. I want to give him the last ride as his sister."
At that moment, he was stunned, staring blankly at her hand that kept rubbing his eyes, his heart was sore that he couldn't breathe.
He seemed to understand something vaguely.
All along, he did everything just to be with Zhizhi, and only then to make her happy. Since the desire to be with Zhizhi has been shattered, it is better to make her happy.
He wanted her to always smile happily.
The broken soul made his thinking simpler and more paranoid.
If you can't be Zhizhi's hero, then be the most unforgettable person in her life.
In the days to come, he will follow Zhizhi even more closely, want to touch her, kiss her, want to hear her whispering in his arms again, want to Burned her deeply into her mind in the last moments.
But he was always at a loss, what should he do to make Zhizhi remember him forever?
Then, when he saw that Cheng Rang was going to hurt his branches, she was scared.
He took out the dagger and walked towards them without hesitation, with only one thought in his mind: kill Cheng Rang, kill everyone who hurt Zhizhi.
When Shen Wangbai raised his gun to warn him, the restaurant was dead silent for a moment. He was like a zombie who had been stripped of his human coat in an instant, and he was naked and exposed to the light.
He suddenly looked at Kamikaze with a look of shock and fear he had never seen before.
She was afraid of him, she was actually afraid of him.
Yes, if he had killed Zhizhi with his own hands, she would have looked at him with such eyes.
No, it should be a hundred times the fear, a thousand times the fear.
There was a sour taste in his throat.
I'm sorry...Zhizhi...
I actually wanted to make you happy.
He walked out uncontrollably, towards his branches.
His time is coming.
He is not afraid of the gun behind him, he really wants to wipe the coffee foam from the corner of his mouth, but...
if he misses this opportunity, it seems that there is no way for him to remember him forever.
So he took a deep breath and pretended to attack Zhizhi frantically. As expected, Shen Wangbai fired.
It was painful, but also a relief.
This is a good way to die. He is Zhizhi's older brother. It all started with his brother and sister, so let the other brother of Zhizhi come to an end.
He only cares about one thing - his twigs... will they hate him?
The fog of memories dissipated, Xu Ye's blood had already splattered all over the ground, he didn't even have the strength to touch her outline, and could only ask the person who was already in tears in front of him in an almost inaudible voice.
"Zhizhi... Do you hate me..."
Shen Lingzhi didn't speak, and hot tears fell on Xu Ye's pale face one by one.
Xu Ye's hand slowly lowered, what was he begging for, how could Zhizhi forgive him... Anyway, hatred is also good, as long as she remembers him, everything is fine.
Xu Ye just left without a dying kiss and no extra explanation. He was like a gust of wind, gently dissipating.
Shen Lingzhi was still holding his body, she didn't know what she was feeling, she just felt that something was tight in her chest and couldn't get out.
After a while, she slowly stretched out her hand, trying to close Xu Ye's eyes.
Saying hate, she can't say it, saying no hate, she can't say it either.
It seemed that all she could do for him was this.
After all, he was just a poor man.
However, what she didn't expect was that as soon as her hand touched Xu Ye's body, Xu Ye's body turned into a little green light like quicksand -- a body made of evil forces did not belong to the human world.
There are more and more green light spots, as if many fireflies are infested.
The people present were shocked by the beauty, and seemed to have forgotten that a shooting had just happened here.
Shen Lingzhi was sitting on the ground, she watched a spot of light drifting farther and farther, and finally went out of the door of the cafe to go further.
Brother Xu Ye, goodbye.
She said softly in her heart.
----
✨ CHAPTER 368 : Finale Part 2 ✨
Xu Ye's funeral was scheduled for three days later.
He walked cleanly, not a single bone was left.
Shen Lingzhi carefully folded his favorite clothes, preparing to set a tomb for him.
Xu Ye gave her all his inheritance. Over the years, he has saved a lot of wealth with his own hands, which can protect her from food and clothing for the rest of her life. After thinking about it, she still contacted Ji Changgu, sold the apartment in Xu Ye's suburbs, and distributed Xu Ye's money to those families killed by Xu Ye in the name of lottery or condolences.
Just think of it as accumulating blessings for him. If there is an afterlife, she hopes that he can live happily.
In the end, only his house in Xinghe Garden was left - the house next to Shen's house. There are still things he left in it. She wants to organize them, and then choose some of the ones he likes and put them in the tomb.
After New Year's Eve, there are still red clothes of firecrackers left in the corridor of the community, which looks very lonely in the cool wind.
Shen Lingzhi took off his boots and entered the entrance, touching the furniture with his fingertips, and visited the place where Xu Ye lived for many years step by step.
Obviously it is a similar room type to Shen's house, but his place is inexplicably empty.
In fact, for so many years, she has only been to his living room.
He is a cartoonist, and his home is his office, so she knew from an early age that she couldn't break into his room casually.
Pushing open the dusty workshop, she opened the window, leaned on the old sofa, and flipped through his published or unpublished comics.
His painting skills are very good, and the details of each page make people unable to take their eyes off.
The wind blew up the dust, Shen Lingzhi closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and the corners of his eyes were smudged with a moist reddish tinge.
She never knew that these cartoons all recorded Xu Yege's hopes and love for her.
Among them, the most famous "My Brother Can't Love Me So Much", the author of 18 banned comics published by the island country is actually him.
The details of her getting along with her brother, he was grafted onto her and him in the comics.
And she always thought he liked Sister Jia'er?
Anyway, the deceased is gone, the past is gone, let these stay forever in the torrent of time.
Shen Lingzhi sighed softly and carefully folded his relics into the storage box.
Xu Ye's funeral came as scheduled.
A group of people stood in front of the tombstone with flowers.
For some reason, the sky suddenly became foggy, very gray, and a little moist.
Shen Lingzhi was wearing a black dress that reached her calf, and stood at the front of the tombstone, and behind him stood dozens of solemn men in black suits—brother, Ji Changgu, Tang Sinian, Cheng Rang, Fu Jingxing, Xie Mu, Lu Shaofan, There are also some of their accompanying staff, and there is a large leopard lying not far away.
In fact, except for her brother, she did not invite anyone else.
Xu Ye is a murderer that everyone hates, and no one wants to worship him. But as his only sister, she just wanted to give him a small place to live, so she didn't want to make big arrangements, and everything was done in a simple and low-key manner.
But they still came.
Shen Lingzhi felt a little moved when she saw them, which was an invisible support for her.
In any case, she is grateful for them.
Put the flowers one by one in front of the tombstone, and the funeral is over.
The group of people left in black cars one by one, and the sky began to drizzle.
Shen Lingzhi sat in the passenger seat, turned his head to look at the cemetery that kept shrinking back and forth, then withdrew his gaze and looked at his brother beside him subconsciously. Shen Wangbai was also looking at her, and the brother and sister smiled at each other.
This smile is calm, relieved, and more hopeful.
After a week of rain and rain, the sky in Haisu City finally cleared up. Xu Ye's departure took away the big stone that she had held in her heart for a long time, and Shen Lingzhi finally had the opportunity to start her new life.
She set about preparing to move to a new home, starting from scratch.
Hearing this news, Ji Changgu immediately found her a new house. The other men said that it was a fake for public benefit, and they also wanted to find a house for her. Tang Sinian even bought an island directly.
Shen Lingzhi answered several calls from the landlord who kindly invited her to move in with a bewildered face, and thumped onto the bed.
There is only one person in her, where does she live with so many people!
In the end, she still accepted Ji Changgu's kindness. After all, he was the first to propose it. If he chooses another man, he is afraid that it will be a mess.
Moving is a meticulous job, and Shen Lingzhi wanted to organize it by himself, so the time was inevitably prolonged.
During this period, other men were also busy with their own work. Ji Changgu acquired a new company, Fu Jingxing was still developing medicines, and Cheng Rang's patients and little fans only increased a lot. Lu Shaofan released a new song called "" It can be said that Sima Zhao's heart is well-known, and Tang Sinian has the same way - he often cooks alone for Shen Lingzhi, and has a tendency to feed her into a fat man.
Among them, Shen Wangbai is the closest to the water tower, but he knows that what his sister needs now is freedom and space, so he doesn't bother her often, and only calls her every day to know that she is happy and safe.
By the end of the month, Shen Lingzhi's moving work was finally completed.
Looking at the warm and bright little home, she felt a sense of happiness and satisfaction in her heart.
In the future, she will have a home, a home where she can always feel at ease and have nothing to worry about.
When I looked again, there was a lot of ashes.
Shen Lingzhi turned around to take a bath.
Warm water spewed from the shower, and she hummed to foam.
And Xie Mu was standing under the shade of a tree across the road from her new home, looking in the direction of her window.
He was wearing a thin burgundy sweater that she had given him five years ago—it was said that she had been coaxing him so much that he refused to wear it because he thought the color was too bright.
But if he doesn't wear it today, he's afraid he won't have a chance.
There was a little morning dew on his hair and shoulders.
In fact, he came when she was cleaning just now, but he didn't disturb her.
He likes to see her happy and satisfied, and even thinks it's good to see her like this all the time.
Unfortunately it's not possible.
He came to say goodbye to Zhizhi.
Maybe Zhizhi didn't know why Xu Ye chose to leave, but Xie Mu was very clear. He comes from the previous life where Zhizhi was killed. He is the reincarnation of one of the twelve elders of the Hongmeng clan. He was able to return to five years before Zhizhi was killed because of the experience. The content of the experience was to help Zhizhi find the murderer and kill him.
Once the experience is successful, he will return to the position of the elder, forgetting all earthly memories, including parents and friends.
Ye Mo, the elder of Shangjiu, was afraid that he would be too emotionally fettered, so he erased his memory in his previous life.
But as his mana grew, it was inevitable that he would piece everything together through dreams.
It turned out that he had always liked Zhizhi, so much that after learning of her death, despite the obstacles of his family, he desperately begged Ye Mo to bring Zhizhi back to life. One of the exchange conditions was that he should accept the experience of becoming an elder. Although the price of the experience is to forget everything and all the people he likes, as long as he can save her, he will do whatever it takes.
Ye Mo also told him that history cannot be tampered with at will, and everything is conserved.
Since Shen Lingzhi wants to live, the murderer must die. If Shen Lingzhi dies, the murderer must live.
So Zhizhi and Xu Ye can never be together, this is destiny.
Just like the men in the previous life each gave 20 years of life for Zhizhi in exchange for a chance to be reborn, but they were all punished by the heavenly way.
He thought that Xu Ye probably knew from Rakshasa that he was hopeless with Zhizhi, so he chose a dead end.
It's just that Xu Ye didn't know why until he died.
And now, he's leaving.
When Ye Mo finished the ceremony for him to end the training, he would forget everything and become the twelfth elder of the Hongmeng clan.
After taking a shower, Shen Lingzhi put on a soft white suspender, with cute gray cotton shorts underneath, and a long beige knitted sweater on the outside, giving off a lazy and sweet atmosphere.
The weather is fine today, it won't feel cold.
After trimming her half-dry black hair, Shen Lingzhi walked out of the entrance briskly. The location of the new home is very good, and there is a small courtyard outside. Now that spring is here, the small courtyard is full of vitality, and she has planted a lot of flowers and plants.
Walking to the flowerbed, Shen Lingzhi was about to water the flowers and plants, when he looked up, he saw Xie Mu standing on the opposite road.
A smile appeared on her face, and her hand reached out and waved.
"Thanks Mu!"
Xie Mu also smiled at her, she put down the watering can and walked to the white fence, "Why didn't you come?"
Xie Mu's heart softened, but he quickly adjusted his mood.
"Zhizhi, I'm here to say goodbye to you!"
Farewell? There was a gentle smile at the corner of Shen Lingzhi's mouth. Today, he is not venomous, it seems that he is really leaving.
She continued to shout across the road to him: "Is it today?"
Xie Mu nodded heavily: "Yes!"
After saying this, the two of them tacitly did not speak again, but they both laughed at the corners of their mouths, they were happy and belonged to Laugh of new life.
Xie Mu understood, Zhizhi understood him, but if he didn't understand him, he was afraid that he would never be able to leave again.
But he had to go, he had the responsibility on his shoulders, and his people were waiting for him.
After watching her carefully for a while, Xie Mu also raised his hand to her.
"Zhizhi, I'm leaving!"
Shen Lingzhi was still smiling, she shouted at Xie Mu, her voice as sweet as cotton candy.
"Okay!"
With Shen Lingzhi's answer, Xie Mu began to back away slowly.
Shen Lingzhi stared at him, she knew that Xie Mu would forget her when she left, and she wanted to remember what he looked like.
She didn't let Xie Mu stay, even though she knew that Xie Mu would be willing to stay for her.
She is no longer a child. These men have sacrificed 20 years of their lives for her in exchange for her life. She must know how to be grateful. So she couldn't selfishly let Xie Mu stay, he had his own mission, all she could do was say goodbye to him with a smile, watch him leave, and let his last memory be her happy smile.
When he came back to his senses, Xie Mu's wine red figure had disappeared.
"Xie Mu, you are actually very suitable for this color." She murmured, knowing that he would not hear it again.
Shen Lingzhi looked up at the spring sun, her eyes were full of moist reddishness.
She stretched out her hand to block the sun, and there was an invisible tear in the corner of her eye.
Not sad tears.
Suddenly, the ringing of the mobile phone came from the room, she turned her head to look in the direction of the window, and a warm smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She turned and walked into the house, the bright sunlight naughty pulling her shadow long.
Hmm...whose phone would it be?
She doesn't know either.
Leave it alone.
There is still a long way to go.
She's going to keep going.
