Lingling is Aunt Wu’s daughter. She is 13 years old and is in the second grade of junior high school.
Lingling will be promoted to the third grade of junior high school next semester and will be facing the transition from junior high school to high school. It is normal for Lingling to feel pressure in her studies.
Shen Yijin saw Lingling from the original owner's memory. Unlike Xiaoyuan, she was a lively and cheerful girl.
Lingling's personality allows her to adjust her mood quickly and she won't be unable to sleep for several nights in a row due to academic pressure.
[What's going on today? The anchors are all students! ]
The high school entrance exams and college entrance exams are just a few months away, and students are under a lot of pressure, so it's normal for them to have problems. But Lingling is only in the second year of junior high. Are students already so stressed out that they can't sleep?
[I don't think it has anything to do with studying. Stop guessing and listen to what the host has to say.]
"Aunt Wu, do you have a recent photo of Lingling? The result I can calculate will be more accurate if I look at her in person." Shen Yijin had already calculated some things through Aunt Wu, but to be on the safe side, she still wanted to see a recent photo of Lingling.
Aunt Wu nodded quickly and took out a small bag of photos from her pocket. "This is a one-inch photo I picked up from the photo studio yesterday. I haven't had time to give it to Lingling yet. Is this photo okay?"
The one-inch photo is for Lingling to use to register for a competition at school. The photo has not been photoshopped and shows her original appearance.
Shen Yijin nodded: "Of course."
In the photo, Lingling's face was yellow, her lips were pale, her eyes were empty and lifeless, and there was a thick black aura between her eyebrows.
There wasn't much flesh left on Lingling's face, and Shen Yijin could clearly see the outline of her cheekbones.
Shen Yijin: "Lingling, have you picked up anything and brought it home recently?"
"This... I'm not sure." Aunt Wu was stunned by the question. Because of work, she could only go home once every few days. She didn't know which of the extra things in the house were brought back by her daughter.
Aunt Wu asked Shen Yijin to wait for a moment while she exited the live broadcast and called the child's father.
After getting the exact answer, Aunt Wu returned to the livestream: "She found a piece of clothing last month. Could it be that Lingling's recent trouble sleeping at night is related to this?"
[That's probably true. Never pick up clothes from the roadside, especially those that look like they've been run over by cars. They might be possessed by ghosts!]
[I heard from my grandma that it's not just clothes, but also coins at the intersection and things tied up in your hair. If you see them, get away from them immediately! Don't touch them, or your curiosity will kill the cat!]
If you accidentally pick one up, throw it away immediately and then leave it in the sun or strong light for a while. Ghosts are afraid of light, so if you leave it there for a while, it will be unable to bear it and will run away.
Many netizens in the live broadcast room began to popularize science, saying that there are ten things that the old saying says should not be taken home, otherwise something bad will definitely happen.
They described it as if they had experienced it themselves. Netizens who heard it for the first time were frightened, and Aunt Wu was also stunned.
"Isn't it just a piece of clothing that she picked up? Why are the consequences so serious?" Aunt Wu didn't know where her daughter picked up the clothes from, but she heard from the child's father that the clothes seemed to be very important to her daughter.
Aunt Wu comforted herself that such an important thing must have been kept well before, and her daughter couldn't have picked it up from the side of the road.
Aunt Wu bit her lips subconsciously, and most of the color faded from her face.
Seeing Aunt Wu like this, Shen Yijin sighed deeply, "Everyone is right. The dress Lingling picked up was indeed possessed by a ghost. When Lingling picked it up, it had just become a ghost."
The newborn ghost was still unconscious and was taken home by Lingling in a daze. He stayed with Lingling every day. Lingling was exposed to more and more negative energy and began to have nightmares.
Lingling hasn't slept well for a week. When Aunt Wu thought that Lingling might have seen the ghost's miserable state in her dream and was so scared that she didn't even dare to close her eyes, her heart ached as if it were being stabbed by needles.
She asked hurriedly, "Then how should we get rid of this ghost? Will Lingling return to normal after getting rid of it?"
Shen Yijin was very familiar with the matter of sending ghosts to reincarnate.
But if we really send away this ghost possessing the clothes, I'm afraid Lingling will still get angry.
Shen Yijin said, “Aunt Wu, the clothes were brought back by Lingling. Why don’t you go back and ask Lingling for her opinion first?”
Aunt Wu was stunned: "Lingling knows that there is a ghost following her?"
Come to think of it, Lingling has nightmares every night, so she might have known that there was a ghost around her.
But she didn't say anything, just that she had a nightmare and couldn't sleep...
"Don't be afraid, Aunt Wu. It's a cat ghost. It doesn't have much power and doesn't want to hurt Lingling. Otherwise, Lingling would have been in trouble long ago." Seeing Aunt Wu's increasingly serious expression, Shen Yijin guessed that she might be overthinking it and quickly said, "I guess Lingling might want to take the cat ghost to see the monument everyone erected for it before sending it away. That's why I asked you to go back and ask Lingling."
The cat ghost who followed Lingling home was a stray calico cat that lived near Lingling's school. Because the calico cat had three colors of fur on its body, it looked like a colorful flag from a distance, so Lingling and her classmates named it Caiqi.
Every day after school, Lingling and her classmates would take the cat food they had bought earlier to feed Caiqi. The clothes Lingling picked up also belonged to Caiqi.
This piece of clothing was found by Caiqi from the trash can. She specially picked out a new piece of clothing and used it as her cat bed.
Caiqi is gone, so Lingling picked up this dress, probably to keep it as a souvenir.
Knowing that the ghost following Lingling was Caiqi, Aunt Wu's expression eased a little. "So it's Caiqi? No wonder. Lingling had said before that she wanted to adopt Caiqi, but Caiqi is used to living in the wild and doesn't want to go home with Lingling."
Unexpectedly, in the end, Lingling still brought Caiqi home, although what she brought back was Caiqi's soul.
Aunt Wu also liked Caiqi very much. When she heard Chen Yijin say that Caiqi was dead, she felt a little regretful. If she had taken Caiqi home directly at that time, maybe Caiqi would still be alive and well now.
However, Aunt Wu was even more worried about her daughter: "Lingling loves Caiqi very much. Knowing that Caiqi has always been with her, she will definitely not want to let Caiqi go. She can't sleep well now and has lost a lot of weight. How can her body bear it if Caiqi doesn't go?"
Her daughter knows herself well. Lingling is usually very obedient, but when it comes to things she believes in, no matter what others say, she will stick to her own ideas and will never waver.
Aunt Wu has been living in her employer's home for a long time working, and has little time to develop a relationship with her daughter. She feels that she cannot persuade Lingling.
Shen Yijin glanced at the time and saw that middle school would be over in half an hour.
She left a card for Bei Shitao, then stood up and went out: "Since Aunt Wu is worried, let's go to school to pick up Lingling after school. I will persuade her."
