"Dahei, didn't you leave a long time ago? Why haven't you been reincarnated yet?" Yang Huijuan held Dahei's hand and carefully described his eyebrows and eyes. Except that his eyes and teeth were not very similar to those of humans because he became a ghost, Dahei looked like the son she had expected. He was tall and thin and very handsome.
"I'm just waiting for you." Dahei put his head close to Yang Huijuan's hand affectionately, "You don't know how confused I was when I just died. I remembered the promise we made, and I didn't leave even when the ghost messenger came to pick me up."
"Agreement? Yes, yes," Yang Huijuan was stunned for a moment, then she remembered the words she said when she walked the dog to the funeral clothing store and the words they said when they left together: The weather was particularly sunny that day, and the sun shone through the gaps in the locust trees. She squatted down and held Dahei's paw in a serious manner, solemnly promising the future after death.
"Look, my memory is getting worse..." Yang Huijuan sighed, "I completely forgot about it. I have to apologize to you about this. I can't remember anything anymore at my age. The last time I was hit by a car, I died not long after returning home. After I died, my memory kept staying on the car. I thought I was hit and couldn't get up. Fortunately, the little girl helped me up.
After I got up, I realized that I could have gotten up on my own, I just forgot."
"It's okay." Dahei said softly.
"Do you still remember our Xiao Hei? That kid is a smooth talker who cheats little girls with dirty deeds. People around him dare not say it openly, but secretly say that our kid is unfilial and is relying on his parents for support. After I got sick, I realized that the kid is also a filial child. He will take care of me by my bedside until the end of my life, and he will also burn clothes for me after I die. Look, these clothes are the ones we went to see." Maybe people will be more willing to talk when they are old. Yang Huijuan was still a little hesitant in front of Ju Jingbai. When she saw someone familiar, she had a lot of things she wanted to share with Da Hei.
Dahei listened to Yang Huijuan obediently, resting his head on Yang Huijuan's thigh, looking happy.
"I'm waiting to hear the funeral horn. Once the horn sounds, we've reached the destination and it's time for us to go down. Dahei, will you wait with me?" Yang Huijuan stroked Dahei's hair down to his back, one stroke at a time, just like she did when she stroked Dahei's hair every afternoon.
Ju Jingbai stood diagonally behind Xu Ge, watching Dahei and Yang Huijuan interact from a distance, and exchanged the information she had learned with Xu Ge: "Grandma just died a few days ago. Her son's name is Fu Yanhei. Grandma wants to wait until her son finishes his funeral before going down. Boss, please wait a few days. Funerals usually don't delay too long."
"Okay, I still have time. I'll have someone check Fu Yanhei's information later to see if Yang Huijuan's identity has been cancelled. I'll keep an eye on them here tonight." Xu Ge, wearing a ginger hooded sweatshirt, put his hands in his pockets and said, "I'm watching here. Does it feel like I'm the gatekeeper at Xiangnan's morgue?"
"I remember that the gatekeepers over there are all very capable." Ju Jingbai remembered the corpse-driving lineage of Xiangnan. The corpses of other people were refined and then stolen by someone, so the people who looked after the morgue were all big shots.
"So I'm bragging implicitly, and you're not going to agree with me?" Xu Ge asked.
"Boss, you are standing here and you look just like those gatekeepers." Ju Jingbai praised frankly.
"Why do I feel like you're scolding me?" Xu Ge saw Ju Jingbai's smile and said indifferently, "Alright, you ghosts, I'll watch here. You and He Sishui should go back to the dormitory first. It's not safe after dark."
"Okay, boss, I'm leaving now." Ju Jingbai had wanted to slip away a long time ago. Xu Ge was already here, so why was she still staying with Gui? "Si Shui, let's chat with Dudu tomorrow. Let's go buy some food and go back to the dormitory."
"Okay." He Sishui nodded, stood up and led Dudu to Xu Ge, half-knelt and waved goodbye.
Dudu said goodbye to the two people obediently: "Goodbye, Sister Xiaobai, see you tomorrow, sister."
Ju Jingbai also waved and took He Sishui's arm to go to the snack street to buy food.
Fortunately, I didn’t encounter any other ghosts on the way back to the dormitory after buying food.
Ju Jingbai took out a talisman and stuck it on the corner of the dormitory door. She felt completely relieved only when she stepped into the dormitory door. Perhaps because she stuck the talisman, the ghosts in the dormitory had not appeared in front of her these days.
"Are you back?" Chu Qiu said.
"Hey, where's Tiantian? Why are you alone here?" Ju Jingbai asked when he saw Chuqiu was the only one in the dormitory.
"Tiantian is planning Si Yuzhe's memorial service and won't be returning to the dorm tonight." Chuqiu lay down, his resentful eyes scanning his face from head to toe. "Besides the amusement park, where else did you go for fun? Tell the truth!"
Ju Jingbai and He Sishui exchanged a glance, picked up the skewers in their hands, and apologized, "We also went to the food court over there. Did you have dinner tonight? Do you want to eat the skewers I bought?"
"Of course I eat. I'm starving." Chu Qiu quickly got up and out of bed, her voice hushed by hunger. "I sent a message in the dormitory group asking you to bring me food, but no one responded."
"You're so lazy." He Sishui laughed, "I bought some lean meat porridge, do you want some?"
"Yes, Sishui, I love you so much. Put a little more in my cup." Chuqiu pulled out a paper cup and smiled ingratiatingly. Then, holding the paper cup, he sat down on the bench, sipped his porridge, crossed his legs and said, "By the way, when you passed by the school gate, did you see the handsome guy at the gate?"
"What handsome guy? Why didn't I see him?" Ju Jingbai washed her hands, took the lean meat porridge poured by He Sishui for her, and gossiped.
"Wait until I find him. He's quite handsome. The poster on the school forum exaggerated him into a rare and extremely handsome guy." Chu Qiu flipped through her phone and showed the man on the screen to the two of them. "It's such a pity you didn't see him. The replies were full of girls who were going out in groups to look for handsome guys."
When He Si Shui saw the photo, she was stunned for a moment, smiled and said nothing.
"Puff, cough, cough." Ju Jingbai choked on his porridge.
The person on the screen was none other than Xu Ge, who had just separated from him. Well, now he wasn't just a guard, he was also being watched. Chu Qiu should have seen Xu Ge a few days ago, but they didn't speak, and given the tense atmosphere, it was normal for Chu Qiu not to remember.
"Is it from the school forum?"
"Yes, it's on the first page and the popularity remains high." Chu Qiu said.
Ju Jingbai went to the school forum, found the post and opened it. It was unknown from what angle the person who took the photo was taking the picture, but Xu Ge's legs looked thin and long, and the ginger-yellow sweatshirt made him look like a beautiful boy from a Japanese drama.
The following replies are incremented every second.
Ahhhh, this is so good-looking, even better looking than that young hunk who debuted recently.
The OP will give you one minute. I want all the information about this young man.
The little brother has grown up to be the type I like. I’m already fixing my makeup and hair and asking for his WeChat right away. My sisters are waiting for my triumphant return.
Ju Jingbai's mouth curled up when she saw it. She sent the link to the forum to Xu Ge and wrote pretentiously: Boss, your photos are super beautiful. The sisters in our school are very happy to get them for free.
"Just wait, if I can't get other people's prostitution fees, how can I get yours?" Xu Ge rejected someone who came forward to ask for WeChat, and was then watched back and forth by a group of people from a viewing angle, and the tone of the voice messages they sent was vicious.
Several days later, Xu Ge came here with a few ghosts to wait for the funeral trumpets, but Yang Huijuan never got the funeral trumpets she was expecting.
She was getting anxious, and Xu Ge also became irritable.
Ju Jingbai began to feel that something was amiss. After death, people are buried in the ground, and with burial comes a funeral. Who would delay an old man's funeral for so long?
These first seven days are all over, right?
"Xiaobai, Yuan An has a day off today. I've sent the kids to Yuan An's place. Please accompany me to the urban village in the old city." It was Sunday, and Xu Ge couldn't sit still anymore.
The population mobility in the urban village in the south of the city is not strong. All the people who have lived here have been from the older generation. There are separate small squares, low buildings, and small two-story buildings. The walls of the buildings have begun to peel off, and the railings are rusty. There are traces of time everywhere.
It was around four in the afternoon when Ju Jingbai and Xu Ge arrived.
Under the huge banyan tree, old ladies sat on small stools and gathered with their children to chat.
Ju Jingbai and Xu Ge went up to a kind person and asked, "Grandma, do you know someone named Yang Huijuan in this area? I heard she passed away?" As soon as she asked about Yang Huijuan, she found out a lot of information, which was chilling information.
"Yang Huijuan, you mean the one in Building No. 2? She's not dead yet." The old ladies were very enthusiastic.
"But the old lady is sick. She was hit by a car while crossing the road and can't walk anymore. Now her son is staying by her side all the time. I told you before that Xiao Hei is a filial son, but you didn't believe me."
"I think he's grown up all of a sudden after this blow. He's not looking for a girlfriend anymore and has taken care of his mother completely. As the old saying goes, the prodigal son returns."
"That's right. Xiao Hei is having a hard time now. She gets up early and goes to bed late every day to take care of her mother."
"Now he doesn't wear those fancy clothes anymore. He's become a much nicer person."
