During this time, she received a message from Xu Fei, whom she hadn't contacted in a long time.
The other party told her that the special department was planning to send her some nice things again.
Lin Xi: "?"
The last time I heard Xu Fei say something like that was when they were trying to trick me into going to pick up Dog Batian.
Could it be that this time, they've encountered another hot potato that they can't handle, leaving her to manage it?
However, Lin Xi was not against this kind of thing; in fact, she thought the more the better.
After all, the things that the special departments receive are mostly good things.
She made a promise with Xu Fei that she would go to the capital to see him as soon as she finished her exams.
With something to look forward to, even the most difficult final exam season didn't feel so painful to her.
After finishing her last exam, Lin Xi quickly packed up, said goodbye to her roommates, and left the school.
She returned to the feng shui shop at noon, intending to use the afternoon to explain to Lu Zhe that she was going to the capital and then go out for hot pot.
During this period of review, she could still find time to go out for a nice meal.
But seeing that everyone else was engrossed in their studies, and that almost everyone was eating in the cafeteria, I noticed that everyone else was studying hard.
If she were to go out and enjoy a hot pot meal at this crucial juncture, she would feel that her dedication to studying wasn't strong enough.
So I endured it for several days.
As soon as she returned to the feng shui shop, she was stopped by several people who had been waiting for her for several days.
"Master, you're finally back! We've been waiting for you for days!"
"If you don't show up soon, we're going to be tortured to death, waaaaah!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi did not immediately ask what had happened to these people, but instead looked at Lu Zhe inside the door.
Logically speaking, if these people have been waiting for her for several days, why don't they just go to Lu Zhe and solve the problem first?
Over the past few months, Lu Zhe's abilities have gained recognition from many people, and with Lin Xi's occasional guidance, Lu Zhe's skills have also improved significantly.
He can solve most problems independently.
Seeing Lin Xi looking at him, Lu Zhe could only helplessly shrug and explain.
“I told them that we couldn’t help them solve the problem, but they didn’t believe me. They thought I was lying to them and kept insisting on seeing you.”
Of course, there were also some insulting remarks, questioning Lu Zhe's abilities and fearing that Lin Xi would discover his lack of skill, which is why he said he wouldn't help them solve their problems and would just drive them away.
These words were meaningless to Lu Zhe, and he couldn't be bothered to repeat them.
Before Lin Xi could even speak, the people in front of her became displeased.
He immediately turned around, glared at Lu Zhe, and said angrily.
"Aren't you lying? We already found out that Master Lin Xi can even handle thousand-year-old vengeful ghosts, how could he not be able to solve such a small problem as ours!"
"If you insist that it can't be solved, aren't you just deliberately lying and trying to smear Master Lin Xi's reputation? You know what you're up to. You're probably just a freak who thinks you can't compare to Master Lin Xi, so you want to ruin his business!"
Lu Zhe: "......"
He was so angry he laughed.
I repeatedly remind myself not to argue with people who have mental problems.
But despite trying to hold back, he couldn't help himself and retorted sarcastically.
"Your imagination is truly remarkable. From now on, the pen is yours, and you will write the whole world for me. How about that?"
The three people in front of him were angered by Lu Zhe's attitude and continued to point at him and curse.
"What kind of attitude is that? You're just a lowly wage earner!"
Lin Xi frowned and quickly interrupted the group.
"He's right. Our feng shui shop won't solve your problems. Please leave."
What? !
The three people who were still preparing to continue scolding Lu Zhe were instantly dumbfounded.
"No, why? Master Lin, we didn't do anything to you, did we? Why won't you help us solve our problem?"
"That's right, we've been waiting for you here for days. Do you know how early we come and how late we leave every day?"
"We were so worried about missing your return that we didn't even dare to go out for meals. We could only eat some dry food at the door every day. We suffered so much to wait for you, and you didn't even ask us how we were doing before saying you wouldn't help. That's so unreasonable of you!"
The three people in front of me were a group of elderly people and two young people.
Judging from their appearance, it should be a mother with her son and daughter-in-law.
After her son and daughter-in-law finished speaking, the mother simply sat down on the ground, slapped her thighs repeatedly with both hands, raised her head, and began to wail.
"Oh my God, what's wrong with this world? Our whole family comes here before dawn every day to wait, no matter the sun or the wind, we don't dare to leave, we don't go to work, we don't do any work, we just wait anxiously for this master, but the master still refuses to help us!"
"Waaaaah, God, are you trying to kill our whole family? We have no way out. Let's just die now and be done with it. Anyway, the master won't help us..."
He kept saying, "Death will end it all," but then he just stood there like he was rooted to the ground, not moving an inch.
However, she had quite a loud voice; her loud shouts successfully attracted a group of neighbors at the street corner.
Everyone rushed over, and when they saw the scene, an old woman was sitting on the ground crying and making a scene, her face covered in snot and tears, looking quite pitiful.
But when they turned around and saw Lin Xi's indifferent face, everyone's pity vanished instantly.
Based on their experience of spending several years with Lin Xi.
In such situations, you must not be deceived by appearances!
The pitiful-looking old woman in front of me is definitely not as weak as she appears!
Moreover, Lin Xi must have her reasons for not helping them.
Whatever the reason, just trust Lin Xi.
The old woman on the ground was dumbfounded when she saw that her usual crying and pleading were no longer effective.
Seeing this, her son and daughter-in-law could only awkwardly help her up, then suppress their emotions and asked Lin Xi again in a humble tone.
"Master, can you give us a reason? If you tell us why you are unwilling to help us, we will give up and stop bothering you."
Lin Xi looked at the man who was speaking and suddenly nodded.
"Okay, you want to know the reason, right...?"
"You bear the burden of murder, what is the reason for that?"
