Another week passed, and there was still no news about Tao Xiaochun. It was clear that there was more danger than anything, but the question was how she was killed.
Tao Xiaochun wouldn't know how to avoid Bloody Mary. Something unexpected must have happened. They originally planned to simulate her movement through the school, but it turned out that the range of possibilities was too large to be a good idea.
Although everyone in the school is very careful and nothing serious has happened so far, the danger that may arise at any time is like an unbreakable cloud, hanging over fragile people. Who knows what happened where and when? The best way is to drive it away completely!
But what to do?
As time passed, Xiaoxia began to have random thoughts. She thought that maybe a Chinese mage like Ruan Zhan was not suitable for exorcising Western demons, so she contacted Wan Li in Italy online and asked him to inquire about Bloody Mary. See if you can ask a bishop or something to play a role in international humanitarianism, or ask if garlic, silver daggers, etc. will work.
"You can drop by the Vatican Hill. Isn't that a religious resort?" Xiaoxia suggested. In fact, she didn't understand Western religion at all, and she only heard about it through hearsay, but if there was a one percent chance, she would have to try her best, right?
Wan Li agreed to her.
He respects any religious belief. Even if he does not believe it, he can at least help investigate the views of Western religious people. It is best to get some holy objects or something, hoping to help Xiaoxia.
"It just so happens that the uncle of one of my Italian friends is a priest." He told her, "You are lucky. When you want to eat ice, God will rain hail on you. Inside, there is that guy Ruan Zhan to help you, and outside A friend like me who has a wide circle of friends collects information. If you don’t become the devil’s nemesis, you’ll be sorry for yourself.”
"I hope I am not conquered by the devil."
"Your director is so cruel that he lets you handle this kind of case."
Wanli's reply flashed on the computer screen, but Xiaoxia could only smile bitterly. What can she do? It seems that there is a hand of fate that always connects her to such incidents. "Who made me capable!" She typed her uneasiness and helplessness to distant Italy through the keyboard. "The director even reminded me that this was just a consultation. If I enter legal proceedings, don't forget to charge two attorney fees. . One consultation, one lawsuit."
"Sure enough, people are old and treacherous, horses are old and slippery, and rabbits are old and hard to handle. By the way, how do you and Ruan Zhan get along?"
"It's okay. But even though I try not to be noticed, there are still a lot of women who want to kill me with their eyes every day. In fact, I have reminded them, Ruan Zhan only owed me a debt, and I only lived with him I don’t have any special relationship with him there.”
"Who would believe what you say? It will only make people more suspicious of how A Zhan's leisurely virtue seems to be in debt."
"I'm telling the truth! I saved Li Jingming's life last time. So he owes me."
"Miss, be reasonable!" Wan Li on the other end of the computer was laughing and laughing, "Azhan got into danger just to help you. Isn't it right for you to help? This can be considered as saving someone's life!"
"He is a man, and only crazy people can reason with women, and the fact is that if I didn't give him the blood wood sword, he would have confessed at the bottom of the river. As a lawyer, he looks for evidence that is beneficial to himself and desperately uses it. It's nature. Besides, I didn't force him this time." Although Xiaoxia told Wan Li this, she felt a little guilty because she finally decided to accept Ruan Zhan's help in order to drive away the evil spirit.
"This makes you very conflicted?"
"I will say that you know me best in the world."
Wan Li didn’t reply for a long time. Just when Xiaoxia thought there was a problem with the network, another line of words appeared on the screen: "Actually, I really hope you can force Azhan."
"What do you mean?" Xiaoxia was puzzled, "Is it better to say bad things to make me happy?"
"Don't you think? A Zhan seems to be living in a cage of his own making. I want you to pull him out."
This time it was Xiaoxia's turn and she couldn't reply for a long time. Yes, Ruan Zhan's living situation is problematic. If Wan Li didn't say it, she would think he was just weird, and now she also thinks that the man sealed himself not just his abilities. But what is it that makes him gentle yet strong, kind yet cold yet hidden in his personality?
"What happened before?" she asked.
"I think that has something to do with his life experience. I told you that he was adopted when he was five years old. No one knows what happened before, even how he was sent to our town and why he It is also a mystery that he was born with that ability. And his father was a Taoist priest who was forced to return to secular life during the war. According to my parents, although he never told people's fortunes or checked their homes, many people believed that he had some skills. During the * period, because our town was the residence of many wealthy people before liberation, there were a lot of people who were harassed. Every day, people committed suicide due to unbearable abuse, not to mention those who died violently. It is said that people were particularly harassed at night. Walking on the street would give me chills on my back. But every midnight, his father would come back drunk from nowhere and walk around the long street in our town from one side to the other. The strange thing is , as long as the sound of his kicking shoes passes, you will feel much safer, and even the crying children who wake up in the middle of the night can sleep peacefully. So the old people in our town say that it is his father who keeps us safe."
"What happened to his father?"
"He was already very old when he adopted A Zhan, so he died when he was in high school. However, I heard from relatives in his hometown that his death was a bit strange and like a mystery. Judging from these things, A Zhan's death His life experience and growing environment are very different from others, even unique. His character is of course difficult to understand. Even though I have been a friend for many years, I don’t understand his little-known side. What everyone sees on the surface is him. disguise. But I am sure that he particularly dislikes his powers, and can be said to be extremely repulsive or evasive."
"You mean that I am born to be useful, and the things given by God must have a reason for their existence. Do you think he should make good use of it, at least not deny himself?"
“From a psychological point of view, being recognized and affirmed by others and yourself is a psychological need.”
"But I think he is facing this matter very calmly, so what are you worried about?"
"That's just the surface. He actually hates everything about him and is indifferent to everything. He has been like this since he was a child. This is why he sealed himself. I think his ability is amazing, but he has only He used it twice, strictly speaking, it was two and a half times. The half time he wanted to use it but failed to save the person in the end, so he hated it even more. And hatred is a very, very unhealthy emotion, and it is the source of his unhappiness."
"What you said about him seems to be--what's your terminology--an antisocial personality disorder. But don't you know it's dangerous to let him get involved in these supernatural events?"
"Of course I know, he and I have faced each other twice, but redemption is always painful."
"Do you really think it is necessary to break his calmness? Although this calmness is disguised, your attitude is not like a psychiatrist." Xiaoxia was surprised. She had never known that Wanli had such feelings for Ruan Zhan. deep.
"I look at this from the perspective of a best friend. I know it seems like interference, but I just want to give him a hand."
"Do you think I can do it for you?"
"Let's put it this way, since I was a child, I have never seen him be so helpless to anyone."
"Sounds like sarcasm to me."
"Disguised praise. Tell me first, what would you do if you had his ability?"
"If I had half of his abilities, I would be sorry if I didn't become a Midnight Lady or a Super Girl. I wouldn't be like him, always immersed in his own world."
"So I said you have always been a chivalrous person." Wan Li praised Xiaoxia, but she accepted everything.
"Yes, so I promise to help you. Of course I will try my best to make him less risky, don't worry."
"What are you going to do?"
"As you say, force him! Have you never heard of a famous saying - character determines destiny. His personality is too passive. Although he is gentle and approachable on the outside, he is cold and ruthless in his heart, and has no sense of social justice. He is indifferent to everything, and he must be forced to unleash his energy. Although I have only known him for a short time, and it is hard to understand how he can be hot and cold towards me, but I have found one of his great characteristics - Ruan Zhan Just like water in a sponge, as long as you squeeze, there will always be water."
Wan Li on the other side of the computer almost laughed when he saw this.
"But I have conditions," Xiaoxia requested, "I want you to tell me his story, at least one thing."
"Is it past nine o'clock over there now? Do you dare to listen to it so late in the office alone? I can tell you something from when we were kids. It's not that scary, but it's still a bit cold."
"It doesn't matter, there are security guards in the building." Xiao Xia tried her best, but still made a large cup of hot tea and put it on the table to prevent herself from shaking.
