The young man hesitated, his eyes evasive, and seemed afraid to speak.
Mu Qing deliberately frightened him, "If you don't tell me, we'll call the police! We'll say you're the murderer, and that's why you're putting the ghost bride projection here to scare people!"
"I'm not, I already said I'm not!"
The young man explained anxiously, "Someone asked me to do this, but I can't tell him who it is. If I tell, I'll die from the poison! I'm poisoned, he poisoned me, and I can't tell him. If I tell, I'll die! You can't hurt me!"
"What kind of poison?"
Mu Qing asked doubtfully.
The young man said fearfully, "He put a worm in my body. It's just like the one in the TV series, a poisonous insect! If I tell the truth, the insect will bite through my heart and kill me!"
Yun Shu stared at him for a while and saw that his forehead was a little dark, which meant that he had a small disaster recently.
But there was nothing else unusual, which meant that this disaster would not threaten his personal safety.
This is a scam.
There is no poison in his body at all.
However, seeing the young man's unwavering belief and fear, Yun Shu felt that even if he told him he wasn't poisoned, he probably wouldn't believe it.
Yun Shu thought for a moment and said, "The poison in your body is a chronic poison. Even if you don't tell anyone, your organs will slowly fail and eventually lead to your death.
That person doesn't want you to live at all. Whether you speak up or not, the result will be death."
"How is that possible!"
The young man's eyes widened, his emotions suddenly becoming agitated. "I did everything he asked, why did he want to kill me?! I lived in that little house for two years to help him scare away the people here! I didn't dare to go out for two years!"
Yun Shu sneered, "He's already killed five women at once, what else is he afraid of? It's not like your life is any different.
Have you suddenly felt anxious recently? Besides that, you often feel listless during the day, dizzy, and weak in your hands and feet. But at night, you feel incredibly energetic and can't fall asleep. You often hear your heart beating so hard it feels like it's about to burst out of your chest.
“Yes, all of them!”
The young man looked at Yun Shu in disbelief. "How do you know? I can't sleep every night now. I can only sleep for a while during the day! But sometimes, I still wake up with a start, and my heart beats really, really fast!"
"That's the insect biting you!"
Yun Shu said seriously, "This is a sign of organ failure. The poison has already invaded your organs. You will die soon."
[How tragic! I did so much for the bad guys, only to find out I have to die.]
[Brother, tell the truth quickly, or you will take someone with you even if you die!
[Hey, I've been staying up late playing with my phone lately, and I've recently noticed these symptoms. Am I also being poisoned and dying?!]
"ah!"
The young man held his head in agony, his eyes bloodshot. "That beast! Do you know how I've been living these past two years? Every day in that room, like a rat, I had to help him scare away people who came here, hide from the police, and help him spread the rumor that five ghosts were stealing the bride!
The little money he gave me wasn't even enough for my living expenses, and I even had to pay to help him! And in the end, he still wanted to kill me! Ahhh!"
Mu Qing patted his shoulder sympathetically. "You've done so much for him, yet he still wants your life. Why bother hiding it from him? Just tell him. Even if you die, you can drag him down with you to be buried with you!"
The young man stood up suddenly and said angrily, "You're right, I want him to be buried with me! People like him just don't deserve a good death!"
He finally told the truth.
"My name is Wang Lin. I moved to the rental house across the street two years ago. One night, I saw the convenience store across the street was still open, so I wanted to go buy some instant noodles.
When I was buying instant noodles, I met an old man in a suit. When I saw him paying, he secretly slipped a bag of things to the people in the convenience store.
I didn’t take it seriously at first, but the next day, I found out that all five women in the convenience store were dead!
The police came later and asked if anyone in the vicinity had seen anyone suspicious entering or leaving the convenience store. Just as the police were about to question me, the old man came to my house and gave me some money, asking me not to tell anyone about what happened last night.
As a righteous person, I naturally disagreed. He then placed a bug on my hand, and as soon as the bug touched my skin, it burrowed into my skin and disappeared immediately!
He said it was a poisonous insect, and if I didn't help him, I would die immediately! I had no choice but to help him. I originally thought he just wanted me to keep quiet about seeing him that night, but he later came back and asked me to help spread rumors and even use projection to create a ghost bride to scare away anyone who came to check.
However, when the police came, he didn't let me use the projection, fearing they would find out. He only asked me to scare away ordinary people and prevent them from moving into the store.
Yun Shu asked, "What's that old man's name?"
"I don't know what it's called."
Wang Lin frowned and thought for a moment. "I just heard the convenience store owner call him Master Huang. He has a mole next to his nose. He looks to be in his sixties, and his hair is all white."
Yun Shu: “…”
Isn't this the Master Huang who nearly killed Liu Ziyue? This guy is responsible for five lives!
"Fuck, it's him!"
Yun Shu remembered it, and Mu Qing also remembered it. Mu Qing had also met Master Huang at the Liu family that day.
"Master Huang, that bastard lacking in virtue, nearly killed Liu Ziyue with his poisonous water last time. Now the police are looking for him online! I didn't expect that he killed five people two years ago!"
