Chapter 579: Chapter 579: Terrible Car Accident_1
Horseface turned around and shouted to the ghost officers behind him, "Since it isn’t here, let’s go look sowhere else. Let’s go!"
Hearing the leader’s order, the ghost officers automatically opened a path, and Horseface and Ox-head were the first to drift toward the window.
As the ghost officers were re foot soldiers, they had no objection and followed Horseface and Ox-head out of the window right away.
The man in a suit gave Qin Sisi a polite nod and gently said, "Sorry for the disturbance. I’ll take my leave now."
After saying this, he floated up and followed the ghost officers out of Qin Sisi’s residence.
The gang of ghosts had co like a mighty torrent and left as a dense black mass. Qin Sisi had gone from indifference to anxiety to relief, experiencing a whirlwind of emotions.
She watched the man in the suit’s retreating figure and curiosity grew in her heart. She had a feeling that she would see him again.
Ye You noticed Qin Sisi staring out the window blankly and intentionally coughed loudly a few tis.
Qin Sisi turned around and asked obliviously, "What’s wrong?"
Ye You leapt into her arms, looked into her eyes, and said seriously, "Don’t look at him with those eyes."
Qin Sisi was taken aback. Who? What kind of eyes?
She looked out the window again and then realized that Ye You was referring to the polite man in the suit.
She chuckled, flicked Ye You’s forehead, and scolded in mock anger, "What are you thinking!"
After a tap to his head, Ye You’s expression darkened, his front claws quickly wrapped around Qin Sisi’s neck, and he started kissing her soft lips.
The tenderness was silky, the itchiness faint, it was as if the spring breeze of April had ruffled the calm pond, or as if a feather touched the tranquil heart, so gentle it was impossible to refuse.
A few minutes later, Qin Sisi finally pushed Ye You away, her cheeks flushed in shyness. "It’s late, let’s sleep!" she said softly.
Ye You didn’t insist further, he jumped out of Qin Sisi’s arms and after they washed up, they nestled and slept together.
The next day, April 14th, Qin Sisi was excited and a little anxious for their eting in the mirror tomorrow.
However, plans can never keep up with changes and accidents always co when least expected.
Qin Sisi received a ssage from Lan Di in the evening. He said he had found the latest schedule of the ssenger of Death. He would be on the bridge in the western suburb of S City to collect a soul tomorrow night.
Tomorrow night, isn’t that the night of the 15th?
Qin Sisi and Ye You exchanged bitter smiles. Did everyone enjoy doing significant things on the night of a full moon?
Should they bla the ssenger of Death for choosing to collect souls on the 15th, or should they bla the unfortunate person who decided to die on the night of the 15th?
They had waited for this eting and now they had to miss it again.
Reluctantly, Qin Sisi and Ye You comforted each other and then started planning the operation for the night of the 15th.
Perhaps to match Qin Sisi and their operation, the night of the 15th, which should have been moonlit, was dark, with the moon completely obscured by clouds, not a ray of light visible.
When Qin Sisi reached the bridge in the western suburbs, under the cover of Ye You’s Invisible Bubble and flapping the Wings of the Rainbow, the surroundings were silent and pitch dark.
She stopped at the bridgehead and looked around. There was no trace of any person or ghost.
The river underneath the bridge was dry this season, with only a large muddy wetland covered with aquatic plants and reeds. Occasionally, calls of unidentified animals could be heard.
Just as Qin Sisi was about to find a place to sit and wait for the ssenger of Death, a dazzling light flashed over. Her eyes blacked out, she quickly closed her eyes instinctively and raised her hand to shield her forehead.
A series of "clang" impact sounds followed, then a heavy thud as if sothing heavy had fallen from a height.
Qin Sisi suddenly had a thought and quickly ran to the bridgehead and looked down. Underneath was a sedan overturned in the mud.
A large hole had been knocked open in the bridge railing where the car had evidently rushed over.
Qin Sisi looked at Ye You, summoned the Wings of the Rainbow, and flew down. Since the ground was covered with soft mud and water grass, she didn’t land, but controlled the Wings of the Rainbow to stop beside the car.
All the glass in the car had shattered, revealing a man inside with his head down. In the glow from the Wings of the Rainbow, fresh blood could be seen continually flowing out of him.
The stench of blood kept wafting out, but Qin Sisi could clearly sll alcohol. This man was likely drunk, which led to the car accident.
Qin Sisi frowned, giving an inquiring look to Ye You.
Ye You shook his head, "His wounds are too severe. There’s no hope."
Qin Sisi gave a sigh, giving a pitying look at the victim. This man seed still young. If he had a family, they would undoubtedly be plunged into a long period of grief.
So it seed that the soul the ssenger of Death was here for tonight was this man’s.
Qin Sisi and Ye You waited by the vehicle for a while. Eventually, the victim’s soul floated out from the bloody body. Looking at the surrounding darkness, the man stared with a blank expression at the bridge above, murmuring to himself, "How did I fall down?"
Knowing that the ssenger of Death would arrive soon, Qin Sisi didn’t waste ti. She imdiately told Ye You to remove the Invisible Bubble and stepped up to the man, saying, "Sir, have you forgotten what just happened?"
The man was taken aback and instinctively wanted to reply with "hello". But when he saw the pair of radiant wings behind Qin Sisi, the words were stuck in his throat.
Staring at Qin Sisi with wide eyes, he stamred for a long ti before uttering, "You..."
Qin Sisi could understand his feelings. An unfortunate soul who had suddenly died due to an accident wouldn’t be able to adjust to the transition from life to death imdiately.
She purposely softened her voice, pointed to the upside-down car nearby and asked, "Is this your car?"
The man glanced at his own car with a more astonished expression. Numb, he nodded and replied, "Yes."
Qin Sisi then asked, "So, do you rember what happened now?"
Staring blankly at his wrecked car and the corpse inside that looked like him, his face finally showed pain, and he said shakily, "I rember... I... am dead."
Though she was anxious, seeing the man’s pained look, Qin Sisi didn’t have the heart to discuss surrendering his Soul Power imdiately, she decided to give him so ti to calm his emotions.
