The sad, angry and desperate voices diverted everyone's attention away from "snail noodles" and turned their attention to the person who grabbed the video link.
"No, brother, why did you vomit all the snail noodles you ate?"
“It stinks.”
Xu Hongjie was vomiting, eating and crying at the same time. The scene was a bit hard to describe.
What's this guy doing? Is he going to slap you in the face while I'm happily talking about food?
I thank him for making me want to order a midnight snack. I thank him, but I want to cancel the order now.
Ji Yu frowned slightly. There was a starving ghost on Xu Hongjie's back, desperately stuffing food into his mouth.
She cast a spell and connected it with the ghost's birth date. The ghost, who was eating, immediately fell asleep, but still clung to Xu Hongjie's back.
Xu Hongjie found that the mysterious force that forced him to eat had disappeared, and he looked up in a daze.
The slightly confused look gradually turned into ecstasy, and then he began to look at Ji Yu with admiration.
"Master, you are the master!"
"Thank you, Master, for saving my life. If I eat any more, I feel like my stomach is going to burst."
[Huh? So what's going on?]
[I don't want to study: I'm haunted by hunger. If I don't solve the problem soon, I'm likely to die of starvation.]
Ji Yu looked at the person whose ID was "Don't Want to Study". She had some impression of him and didn't believe that he could draw 200 talismans in three days.
Judging from his appearance, he should be someone from the Xuanmen sect.
"That's right, I must be haunted by a starving ghost. I've never eaten so much in my life. The main thing is that the starving ghost particularly likes to eat stinky food, such as snail noodles, stinky tofu, durian, and canned herrings. I'm really going crazy."
"I, Xu Hongjie, would rather die of bloating than die of stinking."
[I was just about to mention the delicious snail noodles, stinky tofu, and durian, but then I saw canned herring. Excuse me, that starving ghost is really in love.]
I like the first three, but canned herring is like hellish food.
At this moment, Xu Hongjie's face was distorted. Suddenly, he felt a burst of cold air on his ears. His whole body stiffened and he looked at Ji Yu with a sad face.
"Master, have you dealt with the starving ghost?"
Ji Yu shook his head: "No, I just fell asleep. You rent this room, right?"
"Well, yes, I just rented it not long ago."
"There should be a very small space in this room, just big enough for a child to fit into, probably behind the closet."
Xu Hongjie had a question mark over his head. The landlord didn't tell him about this when he moved in.
Based on his years of experience watching short videos and TV, he quickly discovered that there was a small door at the back of the wardrobe.
【What is this small door for? 】
【Maybe there’s Lao Wang next door. 】
[This space feels a bit small, perhaps due to some vacancy left during construction or renovation.]
"ah--"
When the cell phone's flashlight shone over there, a skinny little boy was curled up with his eyes closed quietly, and his skin was beginning to rot.
[Hiss, ever since I started following this blogger, I've seen ghosts and dead people in just a few days.]
[Is he really dead? Young man, why don't you go up and poke him? What if he's just asleep?]
"I've been here for three days. If I've been locked up in there for three days, I'm sure I'll die."
Xu Hongjie suddenly understood why he couldn't control his urge to eat. It turned out that there was a starving kid in this rental house.
"I want to complain. They actually rented me a house where someone died!"
"Forget about renting it, but they didn't even clean up the body!"
[It seems like there have been incidents at several rental properties, and I suddenly feel the need to thoroughly investigate my own rental property.]
[My body is in the rental house, but my heart is with the anchor. Let me grab one, I will even consider whether there is anything wrong with my rental house. ]
Ji Yu looked at Xu Hongjie who was crawling out of the closet and felt that he needed to explain on behalf of the landlord.
"Mr. Xu, the landlord didn't know someone had died in the house."
"ah?"
Xu Hongjie, who was filled with righteous indignation and was about to call the landlord and then the police, was completely confused.
"How could you not know someone died in your own house?"
"After the previous owner divorced her husband, her mental state began to deteriorate. She was often suspicious and would beat her children. After beating them, she would lock them in that small space and forget about them."
[No way, how can you trust your child to a psychopath?]
[She must have gotten sick after the divorce. If she had gotten sick before the divorce, the court wouldn't have awarded the child to her. What a poor child.]
The small compartment was cramped, and before the child died, he kept scratching the back of the wardrobe. His voice became hoarse from crying, and he cried until he had no strength left. He just felt very hungry.
He wants to eat a lot of things.
"Mr. Xu, after you finish calling the landlord, please send me a private message with a number. Please call me."
The number Ji Yu gave was the father of the mentally ill woman.
The father took his daughter to a mental hospital and was also looking for his grandson everywhere. Every time he asked his daughter, it was in vain.
"Where are my children?"
"Why don't you tell Daddy when your child disappeared?"
"Where are my children?"
The crazy daughter just kept repeating this sentence. The father closed his eyes in pain and could only search without any clue.
Unexpectedly, tonight, he received a call from a young man who told him that his grandson had been found.
He drove there immediately and after going around in circles, he unexpectedly returned to the rental house where his daughter had lived for several years.
Looking at his grandson who had passed away, the man whose hair had recently turned gray with worry knelt heavily on the ground.
"What a sin, what a sin."
Xu Hongjie, who wanted to blame the other party, suddenly became speechless when he saw the man crying out of breath.
[It's a bit painful to watch.]
【For a moment, I don’t know how to comment. 】
What else can I say? Of course I blame that crazy mother. Not only was she crazy, but she also killed her child.
How could a perfectly healthy person go crazy for no reason? The man must have done something awful, which is why the woman went crazy and caused the child to die so young.
"No way, this can be blamed on the man. Can't it be due to other reasons?"
"Put it this way."
When Ji Yu's voice appeared, the others instantly quieted down.
Instead of them making random guesses, it would be better to let the real master anchor explain it directly.
"That couple were actually childhood sweethearts. The feeling after marriage was different from the feeling of being in love. The man met a female student at work. It was like finding the image of his ex-wife. Gradually, his love shifted and he fell in love with that female student..."
