Making Money Hard? I'm Raking It In By Drawing Souls in the Human World

Zhong Wan's life philosophy: Being poor is scarier than ghosts! A middle-aged leftover woman who has been unemployed for a year and is about to live on the streets, Zhong Wan gritted her teeth ...

Chapter 94 Officer Xu, you agree, right?

Chapter 94 Officer Xu, you agree, right?

Xu Siying looked at Zhong Wan calmly, her eyes penetrating, with a hint of expectation in them. She stared intently at Zhong Wan, waiting for her answer.

A cool breeze rustled through the bushes, carrying a slight chill.

The ashes of the burned paper money on the ground floated gently in the breeze, carrying tiny sparks that swirled in the air.

Lin Yan'an turned her head to look at Zhong Wan, and their eyes met. A hint of helplessness flashed in both of their eyes.

Zhong Wan sighed softly; the last glimmer of hope in her heart vanished instantly.

She looked up at Xu Siying across from her and asked calmly, "Officer Xu, what do you need my help with?"

Zhong Wan neither denied nor directly admitted it.

She didn't know Xu Siying's purpose, so she decided to find out first before making any plans.

Xu Siying sighed softly, her gaze lingering on the small mound of earth before her, her voice heavy and sorrowful: "These people... most of them died horribly, some were tortured to death bit by bit by drug dealers, some..."

Xu Siying took a deep breath, unable to bear to go into any more details.

Her voice was filled with sorrow: "Among these graves before us, some are merely cenotaphs, while others are their severed limbs and remains..."

"If possible, could you please communicate with their ghosts?"

"If there are any... mixed together, I can separate them as soon as possible if they are not satisfied, or find other people's bodies or names."

"Whether it's burying their bodies or erecting monuments and inscribing biographies, at least these are traces they left in this world, even if some of them cannot be made public..."

"If none of these work, then even just asking them, asking if they're doing well over there, if they need anything, would be some comfort to those of us who are still alive..."

Xu Siying's voice was filled with melancholy and confusion as she turned to Zhong Wan and asked expectantly, "So, could you please help me?"

This request was quite unexpected for Zhong Wan.

Zhong Wan had been imagining things, wondering if it was a request for her to do some dangerous work, such as communicating with ghosts to catch drug dealers.

Unexpectedly, Xu Siying's request was both heavy and heartwarming.

pity……

Zhong Wan looked at her silently, then at the quiet little mounds in front of her.

The bright sunlight scattered across the yellow earth, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere.

A gentle breeze blows, and the weeds and shrubs sway softly in the wind. Listen to the chirping of insects and birds in the mountains.

Lin Yan'an held Zhong Wan's hand tightly, standing silently beside her.

Under Xu Siying's expectant gaze, Zhong Wan shook her head with difficulty: "I'm sorry, Officer Xu."

Upon hearing this, Xu Siying's eyes instantly darkened, and she lowered her head in disappointment.

Upon seeing this, Zhong Wan quickly said, "I didn't see their ghosts, that's a good thing."

Upon hearing this, Xu Siying quickly looked up and asked, somewhat puzzled, "What does this mean?"

"Because the ghosts I can see are all troubled by their obsessions, and they cannot find peace even after death, which is why they remain in the human world."

At this point, Zhong Wan turned her head to look at the small mounds of earth and continued in a gentle voice, "I can't see them, which means they should be at peace now."

"So I'm sorry, I can't help you communicate with them."

Zhong Wan withdrew her gaze and looked at Xu Siying tentatively, asking, "However, I recently learned how to write funeral couplets. May I write some for them?"

"Even if the heroic souls have found peace in the underworld, what right do the evil spirits on earth have to live out their remaining days comfortably?"

"Officer Xu, you agree, right?"

Xu Siying was taken aback upon hearing this, instantly recalling the "tragic situations" she had just described.

Her eyes lit up instantly, and she nodded quickly, "Yes, yes."

He even looked at Zhong Wan with a hint of expectation and asked solicitously, "Stay here or go back?"

"I'll have someone prepare whatever you need in advance."

Zhong Wan shook her head gently upon hearing this: "No need, this is fine."

After she finished speaking, she quickly called out Zhong Suisui's name in her mind and urged, "Suisui, give me the paper and pen."

Left behind in the shop, Zhong Suisui, who was perched on the roof, gazing longingly towards the mountains, perked up instantly upon hearing this. She sat up straight, twitched her little ears, and let out a soft cry.

Meow~ Sui Sui is coming soon!

Xu Siying, looking at their empty hands with some confusion, then turned to Zhong Wan and asked, puzzled, "There's nothing here..."

She hadn't finished speaking yet.

Suddenly, a cloud of black mist appeared on Lin Yan'an's shoulder.

The moment the fog dissipated, the cat suddenly appeared and sat gracefully on his shoulder.

At the same time, Zhong Wan raised her hand, and a cloud of black mist instantly appeared in her hand. Then, paper and pen suddenly appeared in her hand.

Upon seeing this, Xu Siying's breath hitched, her pupils visibly contracted, and her eyes were fixed on the suddenly appearing object. After realizing what was happening, she gasped sharply.

But her gaze towards Zhong Wan shone even brighter.

Her husband was right, she really is a living shaman!

"Master Zhong! Is there anything I can help you with?"

Her voice was loud and full of expectation.

Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan looked up and saw her bright, sparkling eyes. She smiled and shook her head, saying, "No need for now."

Then, somewhat hesitantly, he said, "However, I've only written one elegiac couplet before. Please forgive me if it's not well-written."

Seeing her slightly smug yet feigned modesty, Lin Yan'an's eyes were full of smiles. He reached out and hugged Zhong Suisui, gently stroking her while concealing the smile on his lips.

"Absolutely not, don't worry."

Xu Siying said casually, "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten that funerals need elegiac couplets."

Zhong Wan shrugged: "Who says otherwise? If my uncle hadn't mentioned it a few days ago, I wouldn't have remembered either."

"A few days ago?"

Xu Siying thought for a moment, her eyes brightened, and she looked at Zhong Wan, saying with certainty, "It's Zhou Bapi, isn't it!"

Zhong Wan smiled upon hearing this, but did not answer her question. Instead, she tidied up her paper and pen and asked gently, "Sui Sui, could you help Mom prepare a table or something so I can write?"

Meow~

Hearing its mother's words, Zhong Suisui, nestled in Lin Yan'an's arms, let out a soft cry.

Its little tail flicked leisurely, and a faint black mist escaped from the tip of the tail, supporting the paper in the air.

Zhong Wan looked at the paper floating on the black mist in front of her, curiously reached out and poked it, pressing her palm down—the texture was smooth and solid, just like a real desk.

Her eyes lit up instantly, and she couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Her cat son is truly amazing!

"Thanks, Sui Sui."

You're welcome.

Zhong Wan picked up her pen, focused her mind, looked at the small mounds of earth before her, pondered for a moment, her face calm and solemn, and then lowered her head to write:

The names of heroes are etched in the hearts of the people; they are a monument.

Drug lords' wealth piled up in the yellow earth, eventually becoming their graves.

Zhong Wan's pen paused on the paper, and black mist seemed to come alive as it spread across the pristine white paper before her.

She gazed at the words on the paper, as if guided by her soul; her wrist trembled slightly, and the black ink from the brush slowly flowed onto the paper.

Zhong Wan's lips curled slightly as she asked softly, "Sui Sui, is Hua Hua still holding a grudge?"

There's more.

Give me some.

【OK. 】

Zhong Suisui flicked its tail twice more, and black mist carrying a faint red gas escaped from the tip of its tail, flying towards Zhong Wan with a clear goal.
