"Do you know that if I hadn't come this time, something would have happened to you?" In the back seat of the car, Lin Jingyu looked at his younger brother Lin Jingze who was sitting next to him with a cold and serious expression.
He still gets scared when he thinks about what happened at that time.
He didn't know much about what the Plum Blossom Tomb was, and he didn't care much about the person his brother had been looking for like crazy, but he knew one thing.
That is: if he had been a little later, his biological brother, who had the same father and mother, would have been exposed!
When he arrived, the murderer had even taken out a knife! He was hiding it behind his back!
And what about Lin Jingze? He was still talking like an idiot to the audience rushing over from the live studio!
When the man who intended to commit the crime was restrained by Lin Jingyu's bodyguard, he began to struggle frantically with red eyes and even started to hurt himself. The bodyguard who restrained him was also a man who had seen a lot of things. He immediately suspected that the man had mental problems and called the police.
The police who arrived later confirmed this, and even after comparing blood samples and fingerprints, they found that this was not the first time the man had tried to hurt someone.
No, it should be said that it has already hurt people.
That guy is a fugitive who escaped to the Magic City from somewhere else. Moreover, he is a fugitive with an extremely unstable mental state.
Although this fugitive was mentally unstable, he had a strong sense of anti-tracking. The police officer in charge of his case thought that most people who committed crimes would go to a more remote place to hide their identities, but they didn't expect that he would run to the Magic City in the dark.
If it weren't for this live broadcast that caused him to be mentally stimulated and jump out to commit the crime, and then be caught by Lin Jingyu who rushed over from the company out of concern, it might have taken a long time to catch this guy.
Hearing his elder brother's scolding question, Lin Jingze muttered, "I didn't know there would be a murderer in my live broadcast room, and a murderer with mental problems."
Apart from this person, the other spectators who rushed to the Plum Blossom Tomb were not so excited.
Although they were also angry that the beauty disappeared when they arrived, it was just a glimpse of her from a distance in the live broadcast room, unlike Lin Jingze who suffered a close-up blow.
In addition, by the time they arrived, the person had disappeared, and their originally excited and frenzied emotions gradually calmed down. They began to discuss life with the dog anchor standing in front of them half seriously and half jokingly.
Mixed in with this crowd of seemingly real and fake spectators, the only person with malicious intentions easily came to a distance of only five or six meters from Lin Jingze. Then he was pinned down by Lin Jingze's bodyguard.
However, after this happened, Lin Jingze and the others could no longer stay with Merlin, so they had to leave reluctantly.
However, although the others really left, Lin Jingze's retreat was a strategic one, as well as a feint to the east and attack in the west, secretly passing through Chencang to launch a surprise attack.
"Brother, please send me back now. Those people must have left. I have to go back quickly." Lin Jingze looked very anxious.
Lin Jingyu's face darkened when he heard this. "You still want to go back? Don't you think you haven't been through enough today?"
Lin Jingyu was really angry. He had already worked overtime for a whole day, and after work he had to deal with the trouble caused by Lin Jingze.
Lin Jingyu, who was tired and annoyed, almost slapped Lin Jingze on the head.
Lin Jingze, on the other hand, was very stubborn. He grabbed the car door with one hand and threatened, "Are you going back or not? If you don't let the driver turn around, I'm going to jump out of the car right now."
If he doesn't go back and find out whether the person he saw tonight was a human or a ghost, he will never be able to sleep well again!
His heart had been lost the moment they looked at each other. Lost without resistance, completely stripped of his armor.
If that person was really a ghost, if it was really him, Lin Jingze thought about it seriously and he didn't seem to mind the lingering love between a human and a ghost.
If it's a human, it's even easier.
"Go back." Lin Jingyu pressed his lips into a cold and hard straight line, and gave a stiff order to the driver in front.
Sure enough, when they returned to Merlin again, there was no one there and it was quiet everywhere.
Lin Jingze walked to a plum tree he remembered, squatted down, and started digging without saying a word or even rolling up his sleeves.
Lin Jingyu silently watched his brother's abnormal behavior, "What are you digging?"
"Corpse." Lin Jingze replied.
! !
The driver and bodyguard standing behind Lin Jingze looked at each other in shock, feeling as if they had heard something they shouldn't have.
***
Ji Xinghe had no idea what had happened in the plum forest after he left. He only saw a news report on his phone the next day: [Magic City Ghost Stories: The plum blossom tomb was completely destroyed overnight, and all the plum blossoms were dug up by the roots.]
The strange name of Plum Blossom Tomb aroused Ji Xinghe's curiosity. When he clicked on it and took a look, he found the picture very familiar and then realized that the Plum Blossom Tomb in the gossip was referring to the plum forest he visited yesterday.
Usually, gossip like this is mostly about catching people's attention, with little substance to offer. Perhaps to meet the word count, the publisher even went so far as to explain the origins of the Plum Blossom Tomb. Ji Xinghe was left speechless after reading this.
"Only a fool would believe such a legend. What a pity for those plum blossoms, which are in full bloom. I wonder who the wicked person was who dug them all up. Fine them! If the police catch them, they must be fined heavily! If they don't, they won't learn their lesson!"
Thinking of the plum blossom forest that bloomed quietly in an empty place and was brutally destroyed before anyone could see it, Ji Xinghe sucked in his lips in pain.
He also feels sad even though it's not his.
He kept muttering to himself that he must make the police officer fine him.
Maybe this person just didn't know what to say. Before Ji Xinghe could say a few words, his cell phone rang. When he looked at the contact person, he found that it was the police station calling.
After the call was connected, he said "Hello?" and then heard someone on the other end informing him that if he had time, he'd better come to the police station immediately, as they might have found Ji Xinghe's family!
"My, family?" Ji Xinghe repeated blankly.
The person on the other end of the phone thought Ji Xinghe was just too excited, so he repeated, "Yes, they said they did lose a child about your age, so they came here after receiving a report from the police. They're at the police station right now, so we can arrange for a DNA test as soon as you get here."
Ji Xinghe understood, it turned out that he had made a mistake.
He knew his own situation very well, and he made up a lot of stories when he was taking the statement, but in reality, it was just a formality to get an ID. How could he really have any family members?
However, thinking that refusing to take a DNA test was inconsistent with his original personality, and that the brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts in the police station were all very concerned about his affairs, he pretended to be surprised and excited on the phone and agreed.
"Really? I'll be there right now!"
Before leaving, Ji Xinghe asked the system specifically for safety reasons, "Tong'er, tell me honestly, you really didn't make any arrangements for me, right?"
The system is silent.
After a silence of about ten seconds, he slowly replied: [The system's rules and regulations govern all of the system's behavior; the system itself has no autonomy.]
Ji Xinghe felt relieved upon hearing this. He then jokingly said, "How come I didn't know what other system regulations and rules you had? What do they say?"
The system refused to answer and threw a copy of the "System Regulations" to the host. No need to ask for help, if you want to read it, read it yourself.
Ji Xinghe certainly didn't have time to read it now. He put the "System Rules and Regulations" into the system backpack, then put on the mask prop that covered his handsome face and went out.
"I won't read it now. I'll read it when I get back. If there are any unfair terms that exploit the system, maybe I can help you condemn them."
Five hours later
Ji Xinghe spent the entire afternoon in a daze, even he himself was confused.
Don’t ask, if you do, it’s all clearly arranged by the system.
"Tong'er, you said you wouldn't arrange anything for me. I feel like you've arranged everything for me. Is there any way we can get along well and trust each other? What about the integrity between people and Tong?"
Ji Xinghe's heart was excited and his hands were shaking as he held a DNA test result: it confirmed the existence of a parent-child relationship. He suddenly felt stuck and didn't know what to do.
Then he looked at the old butler who was smiling kindly at him across from him. He was reporting the test results to the nominal parents he had just determined.
That’s right, in just a few hours, his parents, whom he didn’t even know how they came to him, were called away one after another, leaving only a housekeeper here to accompany him.
"System, I feel like they can't give me the love I want, and I can't accept my parents who suddenly appeared. Is it too late for me to escape now?"
Ji Xinghe felt that the thing he had done best since he woke up was to slip away easily.
"Second Young Master, the Master and Madam are very happy and have already notified the eldest young lady and the young master to come home as soon as possible. The Master and Madam said they hope everyone can have dinner together tonight to celebrate the return of the Second Young Master. Then the Master and Madam asked me to help you buy some daily necessities. Please get in the car."
At this moment, Ji Xinghe suddenly felt like a Cinderella who was married into a wealthy family.
I always feel that what awaits me in the future is definitely not a touching story where relatives hold hands, look at each other with tears in their eyes, and cry together.
"Dear system, if you don't answer your dear host, it will explode." Ji Xinghe threatened in his heart in a soft tone.
As the system's first host, during the novice protection period, the system can moderately meet your needs. The system detected that you were initially very distressed about your identity. The system received your request, evaluated it, and chose to meet it.
"Novice protection period? How come I didn't know I still have a novice protection period?"
[To prevent the host from excessive demands, according to the system's code of conduct, the system will not proactively inform the host of information regarding the protection period. Dr. Ellison, the greatest interstellar figure, once said: Human nature is greedy, and excessive demands are wrong.]
Ji Xinghe: ... "Dr. Ellison is right."
