Chapter 1164 The Returnee's Notes 238
Xie Ning met the man's gaze, but he wasn't looking at them; instead, he was looking past them at the people running behind them.
"Brother-in-law."
The newcomer looked even older than the man in the suit, and his words carried a hint of humble flattery.
"Yes, Xiaoxiao is gone. Your sister is having some trouble accepting it, but it can't go on like this forever. The hospital still needs to operate normally. Go and try to persuade her."
The man's voice was calm and indifferent, as if the one who died was not his own daughter.
"Yes, I'm sorry to trouble you again."
He runs a small business outside, relying on his ex-brother-in-law for help, and he doesn't want to cause any unpleasantness.
After saying that, he went in to try to persuade them, and then he heard a faint, suppressed argument coming out, but it quickly disappeared, along with the sound of wailing.
It felt like the pause button had been pressed.
The nurse who was trying to persuade them finally breathed a sigh of relief. She could understand the family's pain, but the loud wailing and noise were disturbing other patients.
The man in the suit exchanged a few more words with the doctor before noticing Xie Ning and his companion. "Who are you?"
They had been communicating via mobile phone before, so of course they didn't know each other's faces. After Ouyang Lin explained her purpose, the man frowned, sighed slightly, and said, "My daughter is gone. What you said before... I didn't really believe it, but I was just trying my luck."
But now that they're gone, whether you're truly capable or just pretending, it's all useless.
"Can we go in and take a look?" Xie Ning peeked through the crack in the door. The pure white ward was a bit messy, with several broken items on the floor.
The man did not stop her, and Xie Ning followed Ouyang Lin inside. The ward was not warm; on the contrary, it was cold and damp.
Xie Ning glanced around and then shook her head at Ouyang Lin.
That person's soul is not here; this is abnormal.
They rushed over as soon as they heard the news. Logically, the senior's spirit should still be around. "Let's use incense to guide her; maybe she's nearby."
She brought a lot of incense, but none of them were very long; they were only about half a finger's length, making them very convenient to use.
Ouyang Lin nodded, and then Xie Ning took out some incense from her bag and lit it. Her mother, who had just been wailing, was completely confused. "Who are you? What are you doing?"
Almost forgot to explain, Ouyang Lin hurriedly stepped forward to explain, while Xie Ning continued to cast the spell, white smoke swirling around, as if being pulled towards the window, but it dissipated before it even left the window.
Ouyang Lin turned around and looked back, somewhat surprised. "Why did it all disperse?"
Xie Ning didn't understand either, "Let's wait a bit longer."
Then I observed the ward again. There were no other patients in it, and the placement of some items was not inappropriate.
After waiting for about fifteen minutes without any movement, the senior's mother, who was standing to the side, had red eyes and looked at Xie Ning and his companion with suspicion.
Are they two scammers?
But what's there to fool them about? After all, they weren't asked for any money.
Finally, Xie Ning used a small oil lamp, but still found nothing, meaning that the person's soul had disappeared.
"How could it have disappeared?"
She was physically healthy before she died, but she had mental health issues. It was not a suicide, and there were no signs of physical injury.
Xie Ning then consulted the doctor.
They only administered a small amount of sedative medication, not a strong one, so even they themselves had doubts about the person's death.
He died very suddenly, without any warning.
Xie Ning and the others had initially ruled out the possibility that it was caused by a ghost, since the mirror spirit was already dead, but now they had to start to suspect it again.
First, the senior's death was too strange; second, the mirror spirit was clearly a ghost raised by humans, not a normally formed mirror spirit.
Xie Ning suspected that it might have been done by the person behind the mirror spirit.
How do you know?
Xie Ning glanced at the pale-faced corpse on the hospital bed. "Maybe that person raised more than one Mirror Spirit?"
Just like the old man Ouyang Lin investigated before, he kept many ghosts to profit from.
However, this person was different from the old man; he didn't take any money.
Xie Ning believed that not accepting money was more terrifying than accepting it, since there is no such thing as a free lunch, and the motives behind it must be much bigger. However, at that time, the Mirror Spirit had already dispersed, and their clues were cut off.
