"Fourth Brother, have I been talking too much?"
Sheng Yue's voice was soft and weak as she looked at Sheng Lao Si with a pale face.
The words Xinghe had spoken lingered in Sheng Laosi's mind for several seconds before he finally came to his senses.
"No, I was just daydreaming."
Sheng Yue asked with concern, "Are you too tired? Fourth Brother needs to rest well."
Sheng Lao Si nodded, looked Sheng Yue over but couldn't see anything wrong with her. However, Xinghe wouldn't joke about something like this.
He asked tentatively, "Yueyue, have you felt unwell lately?"
Sheng Yue lowered her head. "My injuries will take some time to heal."
"What I mean is, do you feel anything strange? Xinghe said you have... a ghost on you."
Sheng Yue's first reaction was that her jade pendant had been exposed.
Following the instructions on her phone, she found the jade pendant that promised to help her gain control of the entire Sheng family.
Ghosts? Impossible! This is her cheat code. Xinghe, that shameless stumbling block, will be trampled under her feet sooner or later.
She will make Xinghe wish he were dead.
Her thoughts were extremely malicious, yet her face wore a pitiful expression.
She lowered her head and looked down. "You've always believed in her, whether it was when she was possessed by a ghost or this time."
"No, Xinghe isn't that kind of person."
Sheng Lao Si explained somewhat anxiously.
"I was possessed by a ghost and controlled by Xinghe, and no one believed me when I said those things. Now I almost lost my life, and she still says that I am possessed by a ghost."
"I'm just an ordinary person. How could I possibly come into contact with those things? Who else could be the ghost on me besides her?"
Sheng Yue grabbed Sheng Lao Si's hand. "She wants my life. She's jealous that I stole you and my parents."
Sheng Yue's face was streaked with tears; she looked utterly pitiful as she cried.
Seeing her like this, Sheng Lao Si subconsciously felt a little sorry for her.
But when he thought of Xinghe, Sheng Laosi hesitated again, "Xinghe wouldn't do such a thing."
If you really provoke Xinghe, he will retaliate in person.
He's been beaten up by Xinghe.
“I knew it. Nobody believed me, not even when I almost died.”
Sheng Yue cried hysterically, she was so excited that blood seeped through the bandages on her body.
Sheng Lao Si quickly comforted her, "Yueyue, calm down, it's okay, it's okay."
Sheng Yue held Sheng Lao Si's hand, "Fourth Brother, I really have nothing left. You're all leaving me too. She's taken everything from me. Are you not even leaving me anything?"
Upon hearing these words, Sheng Lao Si felt a slight discomfort.
"When Xinghe didn't go home, there was only a dilapidated Taoist temple, and even the door of that temple was broken."
Xinghe grew up in a Taoist temple, never ate anything, and never even had a new piece of clothing. But what about Shengyue? She was a well-known little princess in the capital since she was a child.
Everything used is top-of-the-line, from the smallest embroidery on clothing to private jets and ships.
She flew there on a private jet to eat the most authentic French foie gras and then came back.
Xinghe is overjoyed when he eats fruit bought from the supermarket.
Thinking about it carefully, Xinghe has never actively sought trouble with Shengyue. On the contrary, Shengyue's words, at first glance, seem to be without any problems, but upon closer inspection, they all seem to be resenting Xinghe's appearance for taking everything from her.
Sheng Lao Si's eyes shifted several times. The deeper he thought about it, the more precarious the image of Sheng Yue became in his mind.
The evil spirit inside Sheng Yue bit her hard, [Fool! Have you forgotten what I said?]
Sheng Yue's face paled with pain, and she lowered her head. "Fourth Brother, I didn't mean that. I just feel like my body is sometimes out of control."
"Just like last time, I don't know why I said those things to my second brother and Xinghe. I feel like I'm possessed."
She covered her face and cried, "What's wrong with me? Why did I say such a thing?"
Sheng Lao Si sighed, "You should rest well. In a while, please invite Master Xing to come and take a look."
Perhaps Sheng Yue really is possessed by a ghost. This world is becoming increasingly bizarre, and strange things might happen.
Sheng Lao Si stayed with Sheng Yue for a while longer before leaving the hospital.
He felt a little embarrassed to go back and see Xinghe, but luckily Xinghe didn't come with him today.
Otherwise, Xinghe and Shengyue will start arguing again.
He thought about it and decided to go to the research institute instead.
The research institute has been brightly lit and bustling with activity lately, with everyone wishing they could stay there 24/7.
Several kinds of elixirs have made progress.
Each elixir filled them with ecstasy.
An Shen Wan (a traditional Chinese medicine formula) for treating intellectual disability.
Bone-regenerating pills for limb regeneration.
The Imperial Elixir, a powerful drug for killing cancer cells.
The Resurrection Pill that brings the dead back to life.
Either of these points, if presented to the global medical community, would cause a stir.
Several retired professors got wind of the situation and rushed to join the First Research Institute.
Foreign countries are going to great lengths to obtain the already exposed An Shen Wan and Sheng Gu Wan.
All of the recent visits and exchanges at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have been related to these two kinds of pills.
The institute's security level has been raised to the highest level, and all personnel entering and leaving must undergo repeated checks.
After going through five or six rounds of checks, Sheng Laosi finally managed to enter the research institute.
His figure entered the research institute.
A layer of mist spread around the research institute, enveloping the entire institute.
Why is it foggy?
"It's very foggy, be careful not to stray too far."
"Something's not right. This is strange. Call the Dragon Group."
"I can't see, what happened?"
"Sound the alarm, level one alert."
The guards immediately realized something was wrong and called for backup.
The phone beeped once and then immediately disconnected.
They were all enveloped in a thick fog.
When the fog lifted, the research institute and everyone inside and outside it vanished, as if nothing had ever existed there.
*
Xinghe sat bolt upright in his rocking chair. "What? The research institute has disappeared?"
"Yes, at 11 a.m., a thick fog appeared out of nowhere around the research institute. We received a communication from the guard team, but it was hung up as soon as it was connected. When we called back, it showed that the service area was not available."
“We immediately sent people to the research institute to investigate, only to find that the entire institute had disappeared. We tried every possible method but couldn’t find a single clue.”
"Report this matter to the highest levels of the Dragon Group immediately."
Jiang Sinian recounted the story in the shortest possible time.
Xinghe had never encountered anything like this before.
Holding her phone in one hand and her small bag in the other, she said, "Okay, I'll be right there."
How could an entire research institute just disappear?
Xinghe went through everything in his mind, but couldn't think of any relevant information.
