Bai Fang pondered for a moment, then carefully asked, "Do you like me like a lover?"
Yu Yao was stunned. She didn't expect Bai Fang to suddenly ask this question. Her cheeks turned red and her eyes were full of shyness and panic.
"Well, well... of course it's... my lover's love..." Her voice got lower and lower, a little shy and at a loss. She felt embarrassed, and at the same time, flustered by Bai Fang's sudden question.
"Is that so?" Bai Fang nodded slowly.
In that case, maybe they like each other?
"Why do you suddenly ask this, Doctor Bai?" Yu Yao asked with a little excitement, immersed in the darkness, but her bright eyes were full of anticipation.
Bai Fang thought about it and stared at Yu Yao seriously, "I'm wondering if my feelings are the same as yours."
Yu Yao paused, her whole body about to explode with excitement. She clenched her fists and danced them up and down excitedly, "Really? Really? Really???"
He was so full of energy that even the darkness of the night could not conceal him.
"Doctor Bai, do you like me? Do you like me as much as I do?" She stared at Bai Fang with great emotion, with a gleam in the depths of her eyes.
This excited reaction made Bai Fang a little at a loss. Facing Yu Yao like this, he couldn't even utter uncertain words like "seems" and "as if".
Just as I was hesitating about where to start, car lights came on not far away. The white light cut through the darkness of the night and was very conspicuous.
But the car just stopped in the distance and then turned off the lights. It was probably Liang Yubai coming over.
"Why don't we talk about this later?" Bai Fang thought about it and felt that the two of them had plenty of time to talk slowly, so there was no need to rush.
Yu Yao probably noticed Liang Yubai's arrival and responded helplessly, shoulders drooping. "Then you must talk to me about this later when you're free."
Bai Fang nodded.
From a distance, Liang Yubai could be seen approaching, holding a black cat. Her white dress was strikingly bright in the night, as if radiating its own light. With her long hair and white dress, she moved gracefully, the cat in one hand and a folding fan in the other. If it were anyone else, they might mistake her for a female ghost, but Liang Yubai didn't feel that way at all.
"Where is that secret little entrance?" Liang Yubai walked up to the two of them, not noticing the subtle atmosphere between them. Instead, he looked seriously at the park, with only work in his mind.
"It's over there, I'll take you there." Yu Yao quickly returned to the purpose of this trip, turned around and led Liang Yubai to the secret little cave.
"It's really well hidden. If you hadn't opened it, I wouldn't have even noticed there was a hole." Liang Yubai let out a surprised sound as he let the black cat into the hole and then crawled in himself.
While Liang Yubai was gone in, Yu Yao glanced back at Bai Fang behind her and earnestly and carefully reminded her, "Keep your word. Don't turn around and pretend you didn't know!"
Bai Fang found it a little funny that he was afraid that she would change her mind and run away.
Who can change their mind in such a short time? They can say they like something and dislike it if they say they don’t?
Seeing Yu Yao staring at her intently, as if she had caught something important and was afraid that it would run away.
"I understand. I will keep my word." Bai Fang nodded and responded softly.
Perhaps because the topic was suddenly interrupted, she was quite uneasy. Now, as if relieved, Yu Yao turned around with satisfaction and followed him into the park.
"The police moved all the bodies away during the day, checked various places, and then focused on investigating Miss Wu. Now that the murderer has been caught, people here have become more relaxed." Yu Yao turned her head and looked around, staring at the dark park at night, and looking towards the direction of Yelai River.
"I don't know what's going on by the lake. When I last left, there were still a bunch of regretful souls in the water."
When Yu Yao recalled that scene, being entangled by a bunch of souls and trapped in the water, she felt a little scared.
"Indeed..." Liang Yubai nodded, looking thoughtful. "That kind of vengeful spirit can't haunt me, but ordinary people like you two who didn't resist will probably pounce on us."
As she spoke, she turned and pointed in the direction of Yelai River. "Then I'll go over and deal with the vengeful spirits by the lake first. You two can go over there later. Otherwise, if the female ghost doesn't come out by then, you two will be possessed and the scene will be very chaotic."
Yu Yao paused, then nodded excitedly, "Okay, okay, then you go first, we'll wait for you here!"
In this case! She was alone with Dr. Bai again, so she could resolve the topic that had just been left off.
Liang Yubai didn't know why Yu Yao was so excited, but she had more important things to deal with, so she handed the fan to Yu Yao again, "In case there are other resentful spirits still wandering around, you can hold the fan for now. I'm going to the lake."
"Yeah!" Yu Yao nodded and watched Liang Yubai carrying the black cat to the lake.
As soon as Liang Yubai left, Yu Yao turned around and stared at Bai Fang, her face full of anticipation and excitement, "Doctor Bai, that topic just now..."
Bai Fang was about to speak when she suddenly heard footsteps not far away. She hurriedly pressed Yu Yao's head and asked her to squat down. The two of them squatted in the grass.
The white flashlight light swept across the grass above the two people's heads.
"Huh? I seemed to hear someone talking over here just now?" The voice of the guard came from not far away.
"How dare someone come to this park in the middle of the night? Did you hear it wrong?" A questioning voice immediately came from the side.
"We've fished out so many bodies before, it's hard to say if there are any vengeful spirits wandering around. Once you're done patrolling, go out and take a look. It's really cowardly to stay in a place like this any longer."
"Maybe I heard it wrong..."
The voices of the two people gradually faded away. Yu Yao and Bai Fang squatted in the grass and paid attention to the sounds over there. They only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the two guards had completely left.
Yu Yao came back to her senses and stared at Bai Fang in front of her. The two of them were squeezed behind a small bush, their bodies very close to each other. Although the light was very dim, she could still quickly capture Bai Fang's movements.
The park was very quiet and the two people were so close that they seemed to be able to hear each other's breathing.
Yu Yaoguang felt particularly happy just being together like this, but Bai Fang's words just now gave her even greater expectations.
"Doctor Bai..." Her eyes were bright, and she urged him impatiently, "Doctor Bai, do you like me too? Do you like me?"
Bai Fang didn't know what to say, and pondered, "Seeing you, I feel happy, but I don't really want you to get close to others."
"I feel like my attention is unconsciously drawn to you. Sometimes I worry about your safety and don't want to hear others say bad things about you."
"There's a special... protective desire."
"Anything else? Anything else?" Yu Yao held her cheeks happily, waiting quietly for Bai Fang to continue.
Bai Fang raised his eyes and stared at Yu Yao's expectant expression. He was squinting his eyes happily, which was very cute.
"And... sometimes, like now, I think you're cute and... want to kiss you."
She stared at Yu Yao and murmured softly.
Yu Yao paused, her fair cheeks flushed red. She quickly covered her face with the hand that was supporting her chin, looking very shy, but her muffled laughter could be heard from between her fingers.
"Then we can kiss now." Yu Yao raised her eyes secretly, staring at Bai Fang through her fingers, her face full of anticipation.
Bai Fang was stunned. He didn't expect Yu Yao to be so proactive.
She moved closer to Yu Yao, her voice low and a little nervous, "Then put your hands down first."
Yu Yao hesitated, "I'm still a little shy. It's my first time kissing Doctor Bai, and I'm so nervous. Wait for me to calm down and prepare myself mentally."
"As for kissing, this isn't the first time." Bai Fang leaned over and gently kissed the back of Yu Yao's hand that was covering her face.
"Huh? It's not the first time?!" Yu Yao was stunned. How could she not know that this wasn't the first time she and Dr. Bai had kissed? Was she alone?
"You probably don't remember what happened when you were drunk last time." Bai Fang took advantage of Yu Yao's confusion, pulled her hand down, leaned over and kissed her.
Yu Yao's mind was still on the kiss she had received, but she quickly put it out of her mind in a daze.
Bai Fang really likes the look of Yu Yao narrowing her eyes and being intoxicated. She always looks dizzy as if she is drunk. Although her cheeks are flushed, he hugs her neck and kisses her very actively, nibbling and biting her on the mouth as if he wants to eat her.
After a period of passionate kissing and biting, both of them were panting slightly.
"Doctor Bai..." Yu Yao licked the corner of her mouth with satisfaction and laughed, as if she had just gotten something for free.
"Wow... I got it. I'm a winner in life. I love Doctor Bai the most." She rubbed against Bai Fang's body, making a very soft and sticky sound, which made Bai Fang very excited.
Perhaps it was because the place was too quiet, or perhaps it was because the heartbeat was too clear, her head was buzzing and she could not hear anything except her own heartbeat.
The atmosphere between the two of them was extremely sweet, while Liang Yubai was facing the cold and damp Yelai River alone.
As soon as she arrived at the lake, she heard the wailing of resentful souls coming from the lake, floating on the quiet lake surface reflecting the bright moonlight. The crying sounded one after another, like a ghost crying, so gloomy that it made people's scalp tingle.
"There are more than I thought." Liang Yubai stood by the lake and put the black cat aside.
As soon as the black cat jumped out of Liang Yubai's arms, it quickly ran to the side, as usual not wanting to get close to Liang Yubai.
"Why are you hiding from me like that?" Liang Yubai muttered a little unhappily, and with a little complaint, opened a white shoulder bag she was carrying.
Perhaps because of the movement of people by the lake, the crying sounds in the lake gradually became louder and slowly floated to the surface of the lake.
Little ripples spread out on the surface of the lake, followed by circles of ripples colliding with each other. A large number of resentful souls slowly emerged from the lake, crawling onto the shore from the water howling like ghosts and wolves.
Liang Yubai took two steps back calmly, leaving them space to go ashore, and slowly retreated from a piece of land. He took out a small bag from his shoulder bag and shook out some white powder.
She slowly walked on the ground with the powder, drawing a simple pattern. She then retreated behind the pattern and pointed at the little black cat next to her. "Hurry up and work for me. You're eating my delicious canned food and you're still looking down on me. You can't act cute or act like a spoiled child. You can always bring your soul over here, right?"
The black cat meowed lazily, its bright eyes reflecting the resentful souls that were slowly coming ashore and staggering.
Those resentful souls were attracted by Liang Yubai's figure, howling, crying, and shouting sadly, and ran towards her quickly.
However, just as they entered the white circle on the ground, they suddenly stopped and found that they could not get out. The edge of the white pattern seemed to have an invisible wall that trapped them inside.
The ghosts wailed and tried to break through, but they couldn't get out.
The soul behind vaguely sensed something was wrong and when it turned around to return to the lake, its way was blocked by the clever cat.
The black cat pounced on the ghost with its agile body, opened its mouth and bit the soul. The soul immediately became light, like a piece of thin paper, and was easily picked up by it and thrown into the circle.
Before the few lone souls had time to escape, the black cat quickly threw them into the pattern and trapped them together.
"Good, very good. You did a good job. I'll reward you with some delicious snacks when we get back." Liang Yubai walked forward with a smile and prepared to touch its head and praise it.
The black cat turned its head away without any appreciation and squatted aside.
"Hmph, stinky cat!" Liang Yubai muttered, retracted his hand that was about to touch the cat but failed in embarrassment, turned around and stood next to the pattern.
A group of trapped ghosts howled and rushed towards Liang Yubai like crazy, trying to take over her body, but they could not get close to Liang Yubai no matter what.
"Calm down for a moment." She looked up calmly, stretching out her fingers to count the trapped ghosts. "One, two, three, four... There are actually more than twenty of them. I don't know if what we brought is enough."
She muttered, lowered her head, reached into her bag, took out a few paper figures, and placed them at the boundary of the circle, with one side of their heads facing inside the circle. There were the same number of them as the ghosts in the circle.
"I know you can't leave here because you haven't been buried yet." Liang Yubai raised his voice and said to the ghosts in the circle.
"The police are still investigating. The case has not been concluded, and the bodies cannot be returned to your families. You died tragically here, without seeing your loved ones. You, obsessed with this, can only stay here until the investigation is completed and the bodies are returned to your families for burial."
"But before that, it's still quite dangerous to leave you here, so please bear with it for a moment and go into the paper man's room."
She pointed at the paper figures on the ground and said with a very gentle smile, "Don't worry, I won't drive you away. I'll just put you in paper figures and send you back to your loved ones. This way you won't be trapped here, right?"
The group of trapped ghosts seemed to gradually calm down, staring at Liang Yubai, as if they were judging something based on their last bit of consciousness.
The lake was quiet for a while, and the ghosts slowly entered the paper-made figures at the edge of the circle.
Those who were killed were all ordinary people. Their final obsession was that they could not return to their loved ones. If Liang Yubai is willing to help, it is naturally better to do this place than in the cold lake water. If Liang Yubai wants to drive them away, there is no need to go through so much trouble.
Liang Yubai felt relieved after watching each soul obediently enter the paper man.
A confinement pattern was added to the paper man, so once you enter, you can't easily come out. This was also a preventive measure she added because she was worried that the same example that happened to the previous doll would happen again.
After she had sorted out the number of small paper figures and stuffed them into her bag, she reached out and rubbed off the pattern powder on the ground.
"Okay, that's it. We've cleared out some of the weirdos." Liang Yubai turned to look at the little cat next to him, ready to pick it up and go back to find Yu Yao.
As soon as I turned my head, I found that the black cat was lying on the ground, its ears pressed tightly against its head, its eyes wide open, and it was motionless.
Is this... a look of fear?
Liang Yubai paused.
It seems that it had the same reaction the last time I came to this lake. At that time... Yu Yao ran into that female ghost?
The moment this thought came to his mind, Liang Yubai was startled and quickly turned his head to look at the lake.
The surface of the Yelai River was very calm, so quiet that it seemed as if there was no chaos at all. However, Liang Yubai's gaze swept over and quickly caught sight of half a head floating out of the lake, staring at this side quietly, motionless.
The other party didn't move and didn't give off any threatening aura. It was very dark at night and one would be distracted if one wasn't paying attention.
Liang Yubai stared at the lake in silence. Although the female ghost appeared there silently, she did not feel any threatening aura. It was even the first time she saw this female ghost.
As an exorcist with many years of experience, Liang Yubai is naturally not as afraid as ordinary people.
She pondered, walked to the lakeshore, and stared at that place from afar with her eyes narrowed.
The other party had no intention of moving, so he just stuck half of his head out and peeked at Liang Yubai.
"Last time you only met Yu Yao, and I thought you didn't really want to see me. Now you're curious?" She raised her voice and shouted towards the lake.
The female ghost was still floating there, motionless, and didn't seem to want to come out.
Seeing that the other party still didn't want to pay attention to her, Liang Yubai turned around, just like the cat in her house.
If the other party doesn't communicate with her, she still has to go find Yu Yao.
She turned around, picked up the cat on the ground, and turned around to go to Yu Yao.
I had just turned around and taken two steps when I suddenly heard the sound of water splashing on the lake behind me. Then there was a "pa" sound and a wet sound on the shore, as if something had come ashore.
Liang Yubai pursed her lips.
I tried to communicate just now, but she didn't come up. Now that I'm leaving, she comes up again.
My temper flared up immediately.
Even if you are willing to come up, she still doesn't want to pay attention to you.
Liang Yubai didn't think twice and ran away, completely ignoring the sound of water behind him.
The sound of water became particularly obvious after it reached the shore, with the sound of dripping water accompanied by the slow sound of footsteps following behind Liang Yubai.
If it were someone else, they would have been terrified and scared, just like the black cat in Liang Yubai's arms.
But Liang Yubai himself was extremely calm. He didn't even look back once, letting the voice follow him.
"Are you... an office worker?" A hoarse voice came from behind, asking Liang Yubai.
"You're asking even though you already know the answer. Didn't you see what I was doing just now?" Liang Yubai responded sullenly. The damp chill on her back made her feel very uncomfortable. She didn't know how long this female ghost wanted to follow her, and she couldn't help but quicken her pace.
"You? Are you an exorcist?" the voice asked again, and quickened its pace, not wanting to be left behind by Liang Yubai.
"Ah... yes, yes, exorcist, I am an exorcist." Liang Yubai responded impatiently. He really didn't like this damp feeling. It kept sticking to him and he couldn't get rid of it.
"Then... can you take me... away like you did just now?" the female voice asked again.
Perhaps because she saw Liang Yubai using paper figures to take away the ghosts, she also wanted to leave here.
"How can an ordinary little paper figure take away a big Buddha like you? It can't be taken away." Liang Yubai reached out and pulled the back of her collar. She felt that the female ghost was getting closer and closer. The damp coolness was almost sticking to her back. She could also vaguely feel a slightly cold touch, poking her neck from time to time.
This uncomfortable feeling made Liang Yubai unable to help but run towards Yu Yao quickly with the black cat in his arms, temporarily getting rid of the female ghost, but he could still feel that the other party was following him relentlessly.
"Yu Yao!" Liang Yubai vaguely caught a glimpse of Yu Yao's small shoulder bag exposed from behind some bushes. She and Bai Fang were probably hiding behind there.
She walked quickly forward and pulled aside the branches of the grass. She saw Yu Yao with flushed cheeks, leaning dazedly in Bai Fang's arms. The atmosphere between the two of them was filled with an indescribable ambiguity that stunned Liang Yubai.
"Yu Yao...what's wrong with you? Your face is so red?" She asked in a daze, almost forgetting that there was a ghost following her.
Yu Yao came back to her senses, quickly rolled up her sleeves and wiped her saliva, then got out of Bai Fang's arms with a serious look on her face, "Nothing, I'm fine. But you, hiss——"
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly caught sight of the shadow following Liang Yubai and gasped.
"You, you... brought her here directly?"
Liang Yubai shook his head. "She came here on her own. I was going to ask you to come over."
As she spoke, Liang Yubai wanted to turn around and take a look. She hadn't turned back all the way here, and she hadn't seen it last time either. She was quite curious about what the female ghost looked like after her death, but when she turned around, there was nothing behind her and she saw nothing.
Although it cannot be seen, the ghost aura still exists, which means that the ghost is here, but it has hidden itself so that Liang Yubai cannot see it.
Liang Yubai felt indescribably depressed. Did this ghost want to communicate with her or not?
He appeared in front of Yu Yao, but hid himself in front of her.
"Can you see her?" Liang Yubai turned around and pointed.
Yu Yao nodded blankly, "I can see it, it's the same as last time, still the same."
As she spoke, she shuddered. No matter when you looked at her, she looked scary.
Liang Yubai became even more depressed. "Okay, you talk to her and ask her what her request is. I, the unwelcome one, will go aside."
As she spoke, she pulled Bai Fang aside and said, "Don't get close to him casually. It's very dangerous if you get touch with ghost energy."
Bai Fang nodded, and saw Yu Yao facing the air alone, not knowing what she was looking at.
She was a little worried, but she couldn't intervene.
