Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Ning Yue Disappears_1
Since Zhu Zihao had agreed, Ye You’s claws didn’t hesitate to raise and lightly scratch in front of him, allowing Ye You to collect Zhu Zihao’s ghost into the Portable Space.
After settling Zhu Zihao, Qin Sisi leaned on the sofa in exhaustion, taking a long sigh of relief.
Ye You sauntered over to Qin Sisi in an unhurried manner, rubbing its fluffy little head against her precious looking protagonist.
A delightful smile curled up on the corner of Qin Sisi’s lips as she lifted Ye You into her arms and asked softly, "Hungry?"
Ye You blinked and retorted, "Now that you ntion it, I am rather famished."
Qin Sisi laughed and said, "I’m hungry too. Wait for , I’ll make so food."
Although she had eaten lunch, she had been hastily and barely eaten due to her preoccupation with matters.
Qin Sisi left Ye You on the sofa and stood up to prepare delicious food in the kitchen.
Having rested very little the night before, and having been busy all day, Qin Sisi was feeling sowhat depleted. There needs to be leniency in everything, so she must rest well tonight.
Thus, after the two had finished eating, Qin Sisi took Ye You to bed to rest.
It was still in the evening, with a long ti to go until tomorrow morning. After a good night’s sleep, she should be back to her normal state.
However, her wonderful plan to sleep did not materialize.
At 10 PM, the phone rang.
Qin Sisi was fast asleep, the first ringing of the phone left her in a daze, unable to react. Impatient, the phone rang a second ti.
A little annoyed, Qin Sisi sighed, reached out from under the blanket and picked up the phone. Seeing Ning Hao’s na on the screen, Qin Sisi frowned.
Ning Hao was a sensible person; knowing that she would be tired after a busy day, why would he call her at such a late hour? Could sothing have happened?
Qin Sisi answered the call and said, "Hello?"
Ning Hao’s anxious voice ca through the phone, "Sisi, Xiao Yue hasn’t returned yet. I’m very worried. Can you help ?"
Qin Sisi imdiately sat up from the bed and quickly said, "Don’t panic, where are you now? I’ll co to you."
Ning Hao imdiately replied, "I’m in the underground parking garage. I’ll drive out now and wait for you downstairs."
"Okay," Qin Sisi responded, then ended the call and quickly got up to change her clothes.
Ye You had also already stood up, its purple eyes regaining their usual alertness and sharpness after a brief mont of sleepiness.
Once Qin Sisi was ready, she carried Ye You, opened the door and dashed into the elevator.
When she arrived downstairs, Ning Hao’s car had just pulled up, its bright headlights especially noticeable in the pitch-black night.
Qin Sisi went directly to the passenger seat and asked Ning Hao, looking at him, "What happened to Xiao Yue?"
Although Ning Yue’s attitude towards her wasn’t great, Qin Sisi knew that Ning Yue fundantally wasn’t bad. Moreover, Ning Yue was still Ning Hao’s younger sister. Ning Hao had helped her several tis before, so naturally, she would do her best to help him.
Ning Hao said while driving, "She said she was going to sneak a peek at the boy she used to have a crush on. She just left when I went to pick you up. She was going to co back in the evening. I can’t let grandma see her, so I promised her I’d wait in the parking garage. After I took you ho, I went to the garage. After parking the car, I went out to eat and ca back to rest in the car, thinking she might return soon. But when I woke up, it was already almost nine o’clock, and she still hasn’t returned. I waited another hour, but still no sign of her. I’m worried sothing may have happened to her and didn’t have a choice but to trouble you."
Ning Hao sounded apologetic, clearly realizing that he disturbed her sleep.
Qin Sisi pressed her lips into a line and said, "Let’s not be polite for now, it’s more important to find Xiao Yue first."
Ning Hao responded, "Yes, Xiao Yue ntioned that the boy is studying at the University of Science and Technology, let’s start from there."
Qin Sisi looked troubled. The University of Science and Technology was located in the southwest of S City. It was a large higher learning institution with a large campus and nurous students.
Putting aside whether or not Ning Yue was there, even if she were in that university, it wouldn’t be that easy to find her.
Ye You licked Qin Sisi’s hand and owed softly, reassuring her, "Don’t worry, I’m here."
Qin Sisi looked down at Ye You, and regained her calmness in his comforting gaze.
No person, even a ghost, could completely disappear without a trace. If she has been to a place, she would certainly leave a trace. So, there must be a way.
Ning Hao, being anxious about his sister, didn’t notice the interaction between Qin Sisi and Ye You.
Qin Sisi looked thoughtfully out of the window, her eyes half closed, as the fleeting shadows of the trees passed by under the dim street lights.
Ye You glanced at Qin Sisi. A faint smile of amusent appeared in his eyes. She, lost in her thoughts with her eyes half-closed, had started to develop his mannerisms.
anwhile, in Qin Sisi’s mind, she was quickly analyzing the possibilities of Ning Yue disappearing.
Firstly, if looking on the brighter side, it might be possible that she got lost. However, Ning Yue grew up in S City and stayed here even after her death. There was little chance she would get lost.
Could it be possible that Ning Yue ran into her crush and was just unwilling to leave him?
Qin Sisi pondered for a mont, quickly rejecting this possibility.
Ning Yue had initially stated that it was just a crush, so there wouldn’t have been any deep feelings between them. Deep enough for her to stay out all night just for him.
Besides, Ning Yue had agreed with Ning Hao to return by evening. Considering her level of concern for her brother, she wouldn’t intentionally break the promise and make Ning Hao worry, just for the sake of so guy who might not even know her.
Thus, there must have been an accident preventing her from returning.
However, Ning Yue was a ghost, who temporarily regained her human form only due to the Revealing Soul Pill. With the Spirit Talisman given by Grandma Chu, she could move very quickly and wouldn’t easily get caught by ordinary people. Hence, it is unlikely that she was trapped by so regular person.
If not an ordinary person, it might be the work of a mage or another stronger ghost.
Generally, there are two scenarios when a mage acts to capture ghosts. Either they are paid by soone to eliminate disasters or they are righteous mages who encountered an evil fierce ghost and proceeded to rid the world of such pests.
If they encounter a weak ghost while walking by, a mage wouldn’t typically bother.
Therefore, the off chance of Ning Yue being targeted by a mage can also be discarded.
In that case, the most likely scenario is that Ning Yue accidentally encountered a stronger ghost.
