Chapter 1175 The Returnee's Notes 249
As the rain gradually fell, the streetlights became clearer.
Xie Ning stopped the car and immediately turned around and ran towards Yi Mingdu's direction. This was the airport, and although there weren't as many people coming and going as during the day, there were still quite a few.
Xie Ning's phone kept ringing in his pocket, so he slowed down to answer it. "We'll be there in ten minutes."
She had previously contacted people in a special national department. Although such departments do not exist in every place, they do exist in Beijing.
They are also rushing over at an extremely fast speed.
Yi Mingzhu stirred. "I can't sense him anymore."
I don't know where the problem lies.
"It's alright, you should rest for a while." She could clearly hear the weakness in Yi Mingzhu's voice, which showed that this perception was not effortless.
Xie Ning inquired about the nearest flight and calculated the time it took him to arrive here. If Yi Mingdu had indeed come here, then he definitely hadn't boarded the plane yet.
After all, she ran several red lights to get here, and after this matter is settled, she will have to discuss this illegal act with the people in that department.
Yi Mingzhu could no longer sense Yi Mingdu, but Yi Mingdu knew where Yi Mingzhu was, and thus saw Xie Ning, who was soaking wet.
However, Xie Ning put on a mask after entering the airport, so he didn't recognize Xie Ning at first glance.
She noticed strange looks coming from those around her, but Xie Ning ignored them and simply took out her compass.
Yi Mingzhu knows Yi Mingdu's birth date and time, so a small-scale search is possible, but not very accurate.
Following the compass's directions, Xie Ning arrived at a staircase leading to what appeared to be a parking lot.
"Da da da—"
Because her shoes were completely soaked, Xie Ning's footsteps became louder, the heavy sounds echoing in the empty stairwell.
Just as Xie Ning was about to step down the last step of the stairs, he stopped and quickly drew his umbrella sword. With a light slash, the scene in front of him was ripped apart as if it were a stage set.
At the same time, a pair of pitch-black hands reached out. Xie Ning dodged to the side, and a red thread slithered out from the other hand like a snake, quickly encircling the ghost hiding inside.
“They are completely controlled mirror spirits, they are… my reflections.”
Yi Mingzhu stared blankly at the dark figures appearing from all directions. It was her, yet it wasn't her.
She is the subject, and those are the reflected phantoms, but from a certain perspective, they also exist in reality.
These things kept pouring out, and Xie Ning scattered them one by one, but there were just too many. A few copper coins fell from her hand, and then she held the Soul Umbrella up, making it look as if she was enveloped by these ghosts.
Standing atop the tower, Yi Mingdu calmly observed Xie Ning below and spoke to the person on the other end of the phone, "Mother, she's nothing special. Why are you so nervous? This ordeal will be easy to overcome."
Before the person opposite could speak, the oil lamp placed to the side suddenly went out.
At the same time, a dark figure appeared behind Yi Mingdu. "Little brother, long time no see."
Yi Mingdu's phone fell from his hand. His eyes reflected Xie Ning's figure; she was standing below, holding an umbrella, looking at him with clear, bright eyes.
He was clearly in a sorry state, yet he remained so calm.
The final scene shows Xie Ning coming up with an umbrella, saying, "It's almost dawn."
Yi Mingzhu said, "I can't see."
As the body slowly fell to the ground, the government officials who had been rushing to the scene also hurriedly arrived.
The black aura around Yi Mingzhu gradually faded, and the runes also disappeared, revealing her original appearance.
She was wearing a light blue gauze suit. Besides her, there were also those remaining souls, but Yi Mingzhu was about to dissipate, and those souls could not stay either.
Xie Ning took out his camera and recorded them one by one.
Seemingly noticing the camera, Yi Mingzhu smiled brightly, "Could... I show it to him? If it's inconvenient... then never mind."
Perhaps it's better to stop bringing it up.
Xie Ning knew who Yi Mingzhu was talking about.
Once they had completely dispersed, the special department member pointed at Yi Mingdu on the ground and spoke, his tone accusatory, "Why didn't you wait for us?"
Xie Ning looked remorseful, "My strength is too weak to control the Mirror Spirit..."
Actually, she wasn't wrong. Yi Mingzhu's sudden rush out was indeed unexpected, but she didn't strongly stop her afterwards.
Yi Mingdu has several lives on his hands.
Moreover, Yi Mingdu clearly wanted Lu Qi's life. Her life was handed over to the special department, and who knows what the outcome would be? After all, Yi Mingzhu knew that Yi's mother still existed in the Yi family.
Xie Ning didn't dare to gamble; he felt more at ease watching people die in front of him.
Hearing Xie Ning say this, the man felt embarrassed to criticize her, after all, Xie Ning had already done a great job dealing with such a Mirror Spirit on her own.
"Alright, you can come back with us first."
After all, they had only received some information from Xie Ning and rushed over without knowing the specific details.
Xie Ning certainly wouldn't refuse; she needed their help to clear up the fact that she ran the red light.
She also wanted to know if this special department could trace Yi's mother. Since Yi Mingdu had already lost several lives through this method, what about Yi's mother?
I'm afraid there are even more.
The special department couldn't answer Xie Ning's question either, as they were still investigating. However, the investigation into Yi's mother was likely to be difficult to continue.

Because the other party has already gone abroad, and the Yi family's businesses are mostly located overseas.
After finishing the questioning, the female investigator pointed to Xie Ning's wet clothes and said, "I have a spare set of clothes. You can take it and change. You'll catch a cold if you keep getting wet."
"Thanks."
When Xie Ning left the special department, he had already changed out of his wet clothes. Then he couldn't help but look back at the special department office, which looked just like an ordinary street office.
It's really simple, but it's like a hidden gem in the city. After all, many things inside can't be discussed openly; it's not good to be too high-profile.
Stroking the cyan soul umbrella in his hand, Xie Ning walked to a secluded spot.
It's already daylight, and the gentle sunlight falls softly, filtering through the leaves and scattering like gold dust on the ground.
"Looking for Mommy." The little ghost that floated out of the Soul Umbrella obediently huddled at Xie Ning's feet.
"Mommy, find Mommy." It could only repeat this sentence, then stared at Xie Ning with its empty eyes.
This kid was found at the airport. At that time, she was fighting the mirror spirits' reflection clones when this kid suddenly appeared from some corner and joined her in the fight.
It's so small, only about three years old, and looks so weak. How could it possibly beat those guys?
So she put the little devil away for the time being, and only now has she had the time to ask him about it.
"Mommy, Mommy, run!"
Xie Ning picked the kid up. "Do you know where your mother is?"
The little devil, whether he understood or not, pointed in a direction, and Xie Ning drove in the direction the little devil pointed to, arriving at the crematorium.
There were many spirits floating inside. A female ghost wearing a blue and white striped hospital gown stood blankly in the corner, and only reacted after the little ghost called out "Mom".
The little devil was overjoyed and ran over to hug the female ghost's leg, rubbing against her. "Mommy, Mommy, run... Huh? I can hug Mommy now."
Mom is a warm and pure mom.
However, "Mom, run! There are bad guys!"
The female ghost held the little ghost in her arms, her gaze towards him complex. Finally, she whispered in response, "Yes, run. The bad guys can't catch you anymore."
Xie Ning silently recited the scriptures for salvation, while the female ghost, who was subconsciously waiting for the little ghost, took it with her on the path to rebirth after the little ghost arrived.
Suppressed sobs could be faintly heard from inside, and then a woman in a wrinkled little suit ran out; her clothes were still wet.
Xie Ning recognized her as the woman who had stopped the car last night.
However, Xie Ning did not greet her, but put away her camera and got up to leave. Xiao Hui did not recognize Xie Ning either; she just leaned against the wall and made a phone call.
"Yes, Master, can you increase the punishment?...No? Why not?"
She too, suddenly didn't recognize the world anymore.
"Xiaohui, this is the law, you know it. The maximum sentence for this kind of incident is only three years in prison. Besides, Zhao Yonghe didn't stop your aunt from going home, so..."
Xiao Hui was on the verge of collapse, "He did try to stop her, but only after my aunt escaped did he say he didn't..."
