Perhaps because he felt that snatching food from the red-clothed ghost girl was too childish, Ji Xingchen did not join them, but just watched from the side. At this time, while listening to the conversation between Chi Shen and Ghost Face, he pushed his glasses aside and said, "You are the same as them. You even only have a face. Why do you despise them?"

Gui Lian felt that this person was framing him, and he had to defend himself. He floated to the surface of the teacup again: "Am I disgusted? I am..."

The ghost face suddenly got stuck.

Chi Shen looked at him: "What is this?"

Guilian summoned up his courage and shouted, "Scared!"

"Don't be afraid." Bai Wan took the initiative to accept this new friend. She reached out and used the golden fingertips on her fingers to pick up the ghost face on the water.

The cold air penetrated into Guimian's body, and he couldn't stop shivering, but soon Bai Wan put him on a strawberry and said with a smile: "Try it."

The ghost face rolled his eyes, looked at Bai Wan, then at Chi Shen, and felt that this place was so horrible. Everyone was laughing, smiles from hell. There was no pity for the weak and cute him, so he could only be forced to eat strawberries.

He didn't dare to disobey, so he took a bite reluctantly, and then his whole face froze.

"How is it?" Bai Wan asked with a smile.

"Although the taste is not very good and the texture is not good, it is really tasty!" Ghost Face almost jumped up after taking a bite, "It is really tasty!"

Chi Shen frowned and asked worriedly, "Doesn't it taste very good?"

Bai Wan picked up a red handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth: "These are all things my brother gave us, don't talk nonsense."

Ghost Face immediately changed his words: "No, no, they are delicious, all of them are delicious!"

Chi Shen then relaxed his frown and said with a smile: "You will soon adapt to this place and join this warm family."

Ghost Face finally couldn't help but complain: "You call this warmth?"

Bai Wan tilted her head slightly: "Isn't it warm?"

Ghost Face immediately hugged Strawberry with his face: "Warm, that's so warm! I have never experienced this kind of warmth in my life!"

Chi Shen was also very happy to see that Gui Lian was getting more and more adapted to the life in the old house. Gui Lian looked lonely, and there was no place for him in Li Xu's place, so let him take him in!

The pleasant dinner time ended and Chi Shen chose to go to bed early.

As the saying goes, early to bed and early to rise makes a healthy body. He has to get up early. If he gets up one hour earlier, he can have one more hour of weekend!

Before going to bed, he handed the phone to Ji Xingchen. He knew what Ji Xingchen wanted to do with his phone at night, and he never asked. After all, Ji Xingchen had done his best to help him, and the request to use the phone for a while was not excessive at all.

Chi Shen had not specifically checked Ji Xingchen's usage records, but when he took out his mobile phone to check something one time, he happened to see the search records that had not been deleted. Those names were not things he had searched for before, so they could only be things Ji Xingchen had searched for.

Those words were very strange: Ji Xingchen, Ji Xian, Hongan Trading, Gangcheng Domestic Violence Case, Gangcheng Murder Case.

Ji Xingchen was obviously looking for things that happened when he was alive, and most likely he was looking for how he died, because he said that he had no memory of his death, but judging from the way he was dressed and talked, he seemed to have died in recent years.

Chi Shen did not ask Ji Xingchen. He felt that friends should maintain basic trust. If Ji Xingchen did not look for him, it meant that he could solve it himself. If he needed him, Ji Xingchen would naturally come and ask him.

But today, Chi Shen saw the memory of a drowned ghost in Li Xu's dream. In the memory, there was a person who looked very similar to Ji Xingchen. That person was standing in the sun, so he should be a living person.

After thinking about it, when Ji Xingchen came out of his shadow and was about to leave, Chi Shen grabbed his wrist.

Ji Xing looked at him quietly behind the glasses, waiting for him to speak.

"Do you have any relatives alive?" Chi Shen asked. Seeing that Ji Xingchen usually said nothing and didn't mention his family, Chi Shen guessed from the beginning that Ji Xingchen probably had no family. But after seeing the memory of the drowned female ghost, he was not so sure.

Ji Xingchen said: "No, I only have my mother, and my mother died when I was 7 years old."

Chi Shen said apologetically: "I'm sorry."

Ji Xingchen: “It’s okay.”

Chi Shen added: "I saw a person who looked very similar to you in the memory of a female ghost. I think he might be your father or brother."

Ji Xingchen shook his head: "I have no memory of my father. After I was 7 years old, I have always been alone."

Chi Shen did not delve further into the matter. He only saw a fragment. He could only say, "Perhaps your family is related to the Bai family."

Ji Xingchen didn't say anything and continued to look at him.

Chi Shen was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

"You have the ability to see ghost memories." In the dim light, Ji Xingchen's pupils under the glasses looked very dark, as if there was no vortex of soul. "Have you seen my memory?"

Chi Shen felt that his friendship with Ji Xingchen might be in crisis, so he explained: "I only look at the ghost's memory when it is inconvenient to communicate. I don't look at it at any time. Don't worry, I haven't looked at it."

Ji Xingchen lowered his eyelashes, seemed to think for a moment, and then looked at him again: "Then can you look at my memory and help me find out how I died."

Chi Shen never expected that Ji Xingchen was such a frank person, so frank that even he was shocked. Letting people see memories, this thing doesn't seem good no matter how you look at it, right?

Chi Shen asked. Although it was not good, if his friend really needed help, he would still help. However, he would tell his friend about the situation in advance: "I can only see what you remember, but not what you have forgotten, so I can't see how you died."

Ji Xingchen looked a little disappointed, but he quickly said, "Sorry, go to bed early, good night."

Although he didn't know why Ji Xingchen said sorry, Chi Shen still patted his hand as a comfort, encouraging him to bravely find out the truth about his death.

After a brief chat, Ji Xingchen continued to play with Chi Shen's phone, while Chi Shen hugged the quilt and began to sleep.

Although he didn't have to go to work, Chi Shen still got up from bed early the next day, dressed neatly and went out, taking the bus as he did on weekdays. He even left home a little earlier than on weekdays, so Ji Xingchen didn't even need to wake him up.

Gui Lian followed Chi Shen the moment he went out. That place was too scary. He didn't even dare to go out of Chi Shen's room alone. Now that Chi Shen was gone, he should just follow Chi Shen out obediently!

Ji Xingchen also followed Chi Shen's shadow out. He wanted to go to more places to find out how he died. This was also the reason why he wanted Chi Shen to go out in the first place.

This time, Chi Shen did not get off in the city center. He followed the instructions on his phone, changed subways twice, and arrived at a village in the city.

Coming out of the subway station, he carefully identified the street, but found that he no longer recognized it. He had no choice but to resign himself to the address in the memo and look for it slowly. After searching for a while, he finally found the household in the memo.

Chi Shen used the little remaining money to buy some fruit and milk at the fruit stall downstairs, then climbed up to the third floor along the old, paint-chipping corridor and knocked on a door.

The green security door is covered with small advertisements and is covered with rust spots, but there is a festive word "Fu" pasted in the middle of the door. Now it is autumn, which means that the word "Fu" has been pasted for almost a year without falling off, which is enough to show the care and effort of this family when pasting the word "Fu".

After a long while, a girl came to open the door. She looked about fifteen or sixteen years old and seemed to be still asleep. When she saw Chi Shen, she immediately laughed: "Brother Chi, you are here! Grandma, Brother Chi Shen is here!"

Chi Shen followed her in carrying something. Although the living room was old, it was very clean. Chi Shen changed his shoes skillfully and followed the girl in.

An old lady was sitting on the sofa in a daze. When she saw Chi Shen come in, she started laughing and said, "Xiao Shen is here. Why are you buying so many things? You don't have much money left. Keep them for yourself. Don't buy these things. You can't finish them every time."

This was the old lady that Chi Shen hit while riding his bike after he arrived in Gangcheng.

Although the situation was very strange at the time, his shared bicycle suddenly couldn't brake and the old lady suddenly fell off the sidewalk, these two sudden situations looked like fraud, but after learning about the old lady's family situation, he still took the initiative to pay for the old lady's medical treatment.

The old lady has only one son. Her daughter-in-law is not in good health and has been taking medicine, which costs a lot of money every day. Despite this, her daughter-in-law still set up a stall in the vegetable market to sell vegetables, and the old lady will go to help her. Her son works in a car repair shop and does physical work, and her granddaughter has just entered high school and it is time for money.

The most important thing is that the old lady did not buy medical insurance, and her leg was broken this time, so the money was a bit too much.

At first, the old lady's son was angry when he came to the hospital after learning that Chi Shen had hit the old lady. However, when he saw that Chi Shen took the initiative to take care of the old lady and paid all the medical bills, his anger gradually subsided and he even felt a little embarrassed.

Chi Shen's money was not enough, and the old man's son offered to bear part of the medical expenses, which left Chi Shen with a few hundred yuan for food.

Due to lack of money, the old man did not stay in the hospital for long and was discharged early to go home to recuperate.

Chi Shen also asked for the old man's address and came to visit him when he was free.

The relationship that was originally tense because of the collision suddenly became harmonious because both parties were kind and gentle people, and Chi Shen even became friends with them.

After thinking carefully, Chi Shen realized that this was his second time visiting the old man. The first time was when the old man had just been discharged from the hospital.

It seemed like a lot of things happened during this period of time, but in fact, it was only ten days since he hit the old man.

After chatting with the old woman for a while, Chi Shen carried her downstairs to bask in the sun for a while.

The old man talked about the news he had seen on TV recently and was concerned about whether Chi Shen still had money and where he lived. Chi Shen smiled and told the old man that he had found a job and his colleagues were all very nice. He got along well with his colleagues and even invited them to his home as guests. The place he lived in was also very good and the neighbors were warm and kind, so the old man didn't need to worry.

The old man then smiled and felt relieved. He kept muttering some words about his concern for Chi Shen, and even asked him if he had a girlfriend. Chi Shen smiled and fooled him. At noon, Chi Shen carried the old man upstairs again.

The old man's granddaughter was making lunch, and Chi Shen went to help. After dinner, he delivered food to the old man's daughter-in-law who was in the vegetable market. Chi Shen also helped his daughter-in-law sort out the vegetables and move some things in the vegetable market. It was not until the afternoon that he left the old man's house.

When he was leaving, the old man gave him a pair of knitted gloves he had made and insisted that he accept them, saying that it was winter and they would keep him warm.

Chi Shen looked at the bright red gloves, feeling a little amused but accepting them anyway.

Just after leaving the old lady's house, Chi Shen was still smiling. He had never experienced the feeling of family before, but he felt it from the old lady.

Before he went downstairs, he heard the ghost face on his shoulder crying: "Wow, so touching, wow, how can there be such a good old man."

"I shouldn't have hit her."

In an instant, Chi Shen's expression turned cold, and the ghost face on Chi Shen's shoulder even trembled. He felt that there seemed to be murderous intent in these words, and he was so scared that the face immediately slid down from his shoulder and onto his sleeve.

"I will investigate what happened at that time." Chi Shen walked down the stairs slowly and calmly. Just like his tone of voice, it made people shudder. "The person who caused this incident should not evade his responsibility."

Ghost Face listened on his sleeve and soon understood what was going on. He replied indignantly, "So someone wants to harm you! When you find him, I will help you punish him! Drown him in his dreams hundreds of times!"

Chi Shen smiled, said nothing, went downstairs to the subway station, he had an appointment in the afternoon.

Yuan Yiping called him. They had originally agreed to teach Chi Shen self-defense techniques on the weekend, but Yuan Yiping sent him a text message in the morning telling him that he had found the surveillance video of the intersection on the day of the accident, so he made another appointment with Yuan Yiping.

Yuan Yiping acted very quickly. When Chi Shen stated his request, he went to find his colleagues to check the surveillance footage.

However, since some time had passed and Chi Shen was only suspicious without any definite evidence to prove that it was a ghost who did it, it took Yuan Yiping some time to apply. If he were an ordinary person, his application might not have been approved. However, since the Special Security Department often has some strange requirements, he still got his application approved.

This morning, Yuan Yiping used his off-get off work time to find the surveillance footage at the intersection in the massive surveillance data, and accurately found the time when Chi Shen hit the old man. He took a look and immediately realized something was wrong, so he called Chi Shen and asked him to talk.

The place Yuan Yiping arranged to meet at was the Special Security Bureau. He said the situation was a bit special, so it would be better for Chi Shen to come directly to the Special Security Bureau.

When they arrived at the Special Security Bureau, Yuan Yiping directly took out a tablet, clicked on the video, and showed the surveillance footage to Chi Shen.

The surveillance video at the intersection was a bit blurry and there was no sound, but Chi Shen still recognized the old lady waiting to cross the road at the intersection.

The old lady was waiting for the traffic light. She stood at the intersection without moving.

Soon Chi Shen appeared on his bike. He rode a little fast because he was looking forward to meeting his biological parents. The old lady did not move and was still standing quietly, so he did not pay attention to the old lady on the side of the road.

Soon Chi Shen rode next to the old lady. Suddenly, the old woman seemed to be pushed by something and fell straight in front of Chi Shen. However, there was clearly no one next to the old lady. Chi Shen saw the old lady fall in front of him and pressed the brakes urgently, but he still bumped into the old lady and ran over her legs.

The surveillance video seemed to show nothing wrong, but Yuan Yiping stepped back a little, until the old lady fell into the non-motorized vehicle lane, and then played it frame by frame for Chi Shen to see.

In some frames, you can clearly see a dark shadow appear behind the old lady. It is a man with an unclear face and half of his arm broken. When Chi Shen is about to ride his bike to the old lady, the man reaches out and pushes the old lady.

After pushing the old man, the black shadow touched Chi Shen's bicycle handlebars. Chi Shen slammed on the brakes, but it was completely useless and he directly knocked the old man down.

Because it only appeared in certain frames, no one would notice the black shadow unless the video was deliberately slowed down. However, Yuan Yiping had more experience in doing these things, so he naturally discovered it.

"You bumped into the old man, and that's a problem," Yuan Yiping said. "I don't know why this ghost suddenly appeared and pushed the old man. He may have a grudge against the old man, or he may have a grudge against you."

After saying that, Yuan Yiping looked up at Chi Shen, wanting to say a few words of comfort, but found that there was no expression of anger or fear on Chi Shen's face, he seemed very calm.

Seeing Yuan Yiping looking over, Chi Shen even smiled: "Trouble."

Yuan Yiping said: "We will investigate this matter. We will not let go of any ghost that will harm people easily. You can think about whether you have offended anyone recently, done anything disrespectful, or whether anyone from the Bai family has said anything to you, such as saying that they don't want you to come back to Gangcheng."

"Thank you," Chi Shen said, "I'll think about it."

Yuan Yiping looked at his calm expression and became a little worried: "Don't do anything stupid. If anything happens or you remember something, just tell us and we will investigate. If you don't know about this, don't investigate it yourself."

"I see," Chi Shen stood up from the chair in the Special Security Bureau and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't investigate it myself. I'll just ask someone about the situation."

At Yuan Yiping's repeated instructions, Chi Shen left the park.

He really wouldn't investigate it himself, because there was nothing to investigate. This wasn't a death game where he had to think through every detail. He didn't need to use his brain cells or demonstrate his reasoning ability.

Here, he decided to use the simplest method, which was to find the ghost and ask him. Wouldn't he know what was going on?

As soon as he walked out of the Special Security Bureau, the ghost face stuck to him. As a ghost, he naturally didn't dare to follow him into a place like the Special Security Bureau, so he had to wait for Chi Shen outside. Now that he stuck to Chi Shen's clothes, he asked impatiently: "How is it, have you found out?"

Chi Shen smiled and said, "We have found out everything. Now let's go find the human prisoner... oh no, the ghost prisoner."

Ji Xingchen also came out from the shade of the tree. Chi Shen deliberately walked under the shade of the tree so that he could walk beside Chi Shen. He pushed his glasses, looked at the ghost face for several times, and suddenly said, "Remember to ask Yuan Yiping tomorrow how to exorcise ghosts."

Chi Shen was originally thinking about the old lady's affairs. He was interrupted by Ji Xingchen at this moment, but he was not angry. He smiled and nodded: "Okay."

After taking a few subway stops, Chi Shen returned to the place where the old lady had the accident. This intersection was relatively remote and there were not many people even on weekends. He walked over slowly and stood at the place where the old lady had originally waited for the traffic light.

He turned his head and looked in the direction he rode his bike towards.

——

Outside the old house.

A young man is talking on the phone.

"Okay, I get it. He's out. Will uncle and his men come over for patrol tonight? I see. I'll put the things in now."

The young man was holding a box with a talisman on it in his hand and looked a little nervous.

But it was Young Master Bai Ran's order, and he thought to himself that Young Master Bai Ran was very good to him and had concealed from him several of his wrongdoings. So, it was only right for him to help Young Master Bai Ran with a small favor.

Thinking of this, he felt his steps towards the old house became much lighter.

Ghosts would not come out during the day, he comforted himself, looked around, and after making sure no one was paying attention, he carefully pushed open the door of the old house.

The heavy door made a heavy sound. After opening a gap that was big enough for one person to pass through, he immediately slipped in and found the room where Chi Shen lived. As long as he put this thing in there -

He did not open the door, but it opened.

A female ghost rushed out of the door like a cannonball, shouting in a weird voice: "Sugar!"
