Chapter 224 Stay with Her (End of Text)
Is there still justice? Is there still law? Ah? What is this woman talking about?! Is she trying to rob?!
The saleswoman was trembling with anger. It was fine if these two ate and drank for free on a normal day, but now they were actually robbing her? This was intolerable. She… she turned to look at Chen Sangning, who was standing next to Lin Xi, with a look of pleading for help.
Because Chen Sangning's expression just now was clearly a bit reserved, as if she didn't agree with Lin Xi's idea. So the saleswoman thought to herself - perhaps, the only person who could save her was Chen Sangning!
Facing the saleswoman's distress signal, Shen Sangning turned back to look at the saleswoman, with a hint of urging in her eyes. But the saleswoman didn't understand Shen Sangning's intention at all.
Shen Sangning knew that she had to explain it clearly.
So Chen Sangning spoke up, and under the saleswoman's hopeful gaze, she said coldly, "I'm talking to you, can't you hear me? We're robbing you, hand over all your money."
At this moment, the salesgirl fell into despair and even lost the light in her eyes.
Lin Xi, Chen Sang Ning, you two are guilty of heinous crimes!
If they could hear the saleslady's complaint at this moment, it would be something like this.
Faced with the dilemma of losing her life over the store's sales, the saleswoman chose the former without hesitation. She took out all the small change from the radio. Lin Xi nodded, then shook her head helplessly. "No way! How can you only make this much in a day?"
The saleswoman opened her mouth but in the end no words came out.
Wow, that's not just one day's sales, that's a week's sales. How can this little shop of theirs make any money? Besides, we're all ghosts, and we don't have much desire to buy. Only a few ghosts have a craving for snacks written in their settings, so they'll come in and buy a little.
The biggest sales are cigarettes and alcohol. After all, these guys still need these even when they become ghosts.
However, ever since Lin Xi and Shen Sangning arrived, more and more people had been shopping for groceries and snacks in the community. The saleswoman guessed they'd secretly seen them upstairs eating sausages while walking, and gradually felt the urge to buy something too.
This led to a slight increase in sales, otherwise it would be common to not make a penny a day.
The saleswoman watched them take away a week's sales and instantly felt like crying. Could it be... that she would have to live like this in the future?
Lin Xi counted the bills and stuffed them into her pocket, then walked back with Shen Sang Ning. As she walked, she complained, "Wife, I always feel like I'm playing GTA5."
"You've even robbed convenience stores. That's how it feels."
"hey-hey."
Lin Xi grinned, and Shen Sangning also smiled: "I'm not praising you."
"But not everyone can play the real-life version of GTA5. We will definitely live happily in the future."
They are truly happy, but it is suffering for other innocent ghosts.
Lin Xi took the small amount of money she had robbed and led Shen Sang Ning to the bus. She quickly took out the money she had just robbed from her pocket. The way Lin Xi handed it to the driver looked like an older sister giving her younger brother some funds for his recent activities.
The driver took it respectfully and counted it quickly.
He counted it once, glanced at Lin Xi, and then lowered his head to count it again: "No, this is not right, there are only two thousand yuan in it."
Lin Xi knew it was wrong, but she had no choice. She could only patiently explain to the driver, "Take it first. I'm staying here. I can't leave the temple. This is a deposit. Use it first. Next month, when the funeral home pays me, I'll give it to you first. These two thousand yuan are extra. Don't you want the extra money?"
The ghost driver was completely bewildered by Lin Xi's words. Ghosts' IQs were indeed lower than humans', and he thought it made sense. He happily accepted the two thousand yuan. Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief. If she had known, she wouldn't have said she would give the ghost driver fifty thousand yuan.
Lin Xi was full of enthusiasm when she agreed at the beginning, but now she feels pained when she thinks about it.
The two of them still got on the bus. The No. 4 bus no longer sped at lightning speed, but instead rolled slowly on its two wheels to the school gate. Along the way, many blind white ghosts tried to capture and devour Lin Xi, Chen Sang Ning, and the driver ghost. Unfortunately, these ghosts ended up in Chen Sang Ning's stomach instead.
Although the No. 4 bus was badly damaged, with only half of its body remaining, it was still able to provide shelter from the wind and rain, and also block some of the erosion from the white fog. After arriving at the school, Lin Xi instructed the driver, "Wait here. We'll come out once we're done."
The two of them entered the school, still climbing over the wall, and then walked towards the staff dormitory with ease. When they arrived at the dormitory building, Lin Xi took a deep breath and shouted, "He Sitong, is He Sitong here? He Sitong, come out!"
Lin Xi's loud voice was enough to make most ghosts feel that their rules were violated, but the effect was not that strong. Except for a few who were asked to remain quiet, the other ghosts stuck their heads out to see Lin Xi's situation, and then retracted their heads.
Of course, there must be a few ghosts who had to take steps and slowly walk towards Lin Xi because of the restrictions of their own rules. They might curse the damn rules in their hearts, and feel so wronged that they want to cry. There is nothing to say about the end, they were just eaten by Shen Sang Ning.
Although Shen Sang Ning had basically recovered, she had been seriously injured before, so she had to take a good rest. These ghosts became the best tonic for Shen Sang Ning.
He Sitong also poked her head out at this time. She lay on the fence upstairs with half of her body sticking out. She stretched out her hand and waved it vigorously towards Lin Xi: "Sister Xi! Sister Ningning! You are here!" Her action was quite dangerous. Lin Xi was afraid that she would fall from above.
Fortunately, someone caught her and dragged her directly in. A voice came from above: "He Sitong! How could you do this? Didn't your teacher tell you not to do such dangerous actions? What if you accidentally fall down if you stick your head out like this?" Lin Xi also felt that the voice sounded familiar. It was Lin Lin.
I didn't expect that when she was with He Sitong, she would be the worried little teacher.
With that said, Lin Lin really does look like a little principal.
Lin Xi and Shen Sangning walked upstairs hand in hand. When they reached the floor where He Sitong had just waved, she immediately invited them into the small room she'd been staying in for the past two days. After everyone was seated, He Sitong began to report on the current situation.
"Including Sister Xi and me, there are twelve of us still alive, but five are seriously injured and need immediate medical attention," He Sitong emphasized. Some are missing limbs, some have lost their eyes, and one even had a kidney removed remotely. In short, while their lives have been saved, the situation isn't optimistic.
"Brother Sun Ke sent Doctor Chen Sheng over. He's stopped the bleeding, but if things continue like this, his life will be in danger." He Sitong looked at the two of them. "Sister Xi, Sister Ningning, when can we...really go back?"
Lin Xi actually didn't know, but she knew that Shen Sangning would definitely have a way, so she looked at Shen Sangning: "Wife."
Shen Sangning nodded and began to answer: "You can go back anytime you want, but we have to go to Brother Sun Ke's place. Because she has something. If we don't get it, Lin Xi will go back with you."
If that's the case, what else is there to say? Of course, we'll just leave. With the help of a few teachers called by Lin Lin, the group of patients were carried onto the No. 4 bus parked at the door. But Lin Xi also didn't see the rumored person missing a kidney. After Lin Xi asked this question, He Sitong smiled a little sheepishly.
"Ah, that person is me."
She pointed to her kidneys and said, "I don't really feel anything. It's worth it to trade a kidney for my life."
Lin Xi was stunned for a moment when he heard her speak so freely. In the end, he could only pat her on the shoulder.
It took half a day to reach Qingmu Mental Hospital by the two wheels of the No. 4 bus. Sun Ke handed the small particle collider to Shen Sangning without saying a word. Shen Sangning did not send the anchors back immediately, but gave Lin Xi time to say goodbye to them.
To be precise, it was Lin Xi and He Sitong. Among these anchors, she only knew He Sitong. Alan Jones was not among them, and he was obviously dead. Alan Jones had a broken leg, and it was difficult for him to survive in this state.
He Sitong knew that they were about to part ways. The cheerful and lively female college student no longer looked so good. She looked like she was about to cry, with tears welling up in her eyes and half refusing to fall.
Lin Xi and Shen Sangning were standing opposite her, and they immediately felt something was wrong when they saw her expression: "Hey, it's just saying goodbye. Besides, maybe you can still watch the horror movie I made in the future." He Sitong also knew that it was not good for her to cry like this, but her eyes were very sore.
He Sitong didn't know what to say now. After a while, she suddenly said something as if her brain was cramping: "I will write more articles about your couple when I go back."
"Well..." Lin Xi really wanted to say no. She'd already felt a bit awkward reading it in the livestream, and now He Sitong was even saying she wanted to write something, which made her scalp tingle. But He Sitong looked so pitiful, so she could only say, "Okay, just don't be OOC, and don't write about erotic content."
He Sitong agreed.
She looked at Chen Sangning again and offered her final blessing: "Sister Ningning, you and Sister Xi must be happy and live happily forever."
"Yes, we will."
At this point, there seemed to be nothing more to say. Seeing He Sitong's sad expression, Lin Xi couldn't help but say, "He Sitong, you're better than you think. You'll definitely be popular. If you're not popular, it's not your fault. It's because those guys have no vision."
He Sitong had been able to hold it back, but after hearing these words, she couldn't hold it back any longer. She rushed over, hugged Lin Xi and Shen Sangning, and cried her heart out.
"Woo, woo, woo, you must be happy! I will live well too! As long as I am here, I will keep writing fan fiction! No one will forget you!"
Lin Xi and Shen Sangning looked at each other. They didn't expect that this little fool was still thinking about these things.
After a brief farewell, Shen Sangning raised her hand, and a virtual light screen appeared in front of her. As long as she modified the clearance conditions on it, she could send them back immediately. Before that, she took out a small particle collider and started it towards Lin Xi.
The dizzy feeling came as expected, Lin Xi covered her mouth and almost vomited, and used her expression to signal Shen Sang Ning to hurry up.
Chen Sangning made some adjustments on the virtual screen and quickly sent all the anchors back. At that moment, Lin Xi felt a heavy blow to the head and fainted. Chen Sangning rushed over and hugged Lin Xi. The anchors disappeared, and only Lin Xi remained in the world of rule-based weird stories.
After a moment, Lin Xi slowly opened his eyes.
"Lin Xi, how is it?!" Shen Sang Ning's anxious voice came to her ears. She looked around and saw that there were many ghosts around her, including Sun Kege, Lin Lin, Xiao Gu, Chen Sheng, and the driver of bus No. 4.
Lin Xi shook her head: "I don't feel well. I feel like vomiting."
Shen Sangning's expression relaxed immediately: "What? You just know how to scare me."
But no matter what, she finally kept Lin Xi by her side.
