The female ghost was taken aback, and bowed deeply to Kui Kui once more.
A faint golden light drifted onto Kui Kui's body, much to Mang Wei's envy.
The female ghost expressed her heartfelt gratitude to Kui Kui, but her eyes were filled with hatred as she thought of the person who had killed her.
“That man is called Wang Desheng. He has a powerful protector, and I can’t get close to him.”
Her eyes darkened slightly as she continued, "The path to graduate school admission is not a blessing, but a curse."
"I was the first person to get a guaranteed postgraduate admission through this route."
"That night, I was walking back to my dorm alone from the library when I was sexually assaulted by Wang Desheng on this road. In order to quell the matter, the school gave me a spot in the postgraduate recommendation program."
Mang Wei had been locked in the coffin for a long time, and her mindset was still stuck in an era when female chastity was paramount.
She couldn't help but interject, "You agreed?"
"What could we do if we disagreed? His family is rich and powerful, and they used coercion and bribery to persuade my parents."
"Then you shouldn't have compromised! Weren't you being very fierce just now? Show some spirit!" Mang Wei waved her little fist.
The female ghost smiled bitterly and said, "You don't understand. The people who hurt you the most in this world are always the ones closest to you. When they all stand on the side of the abuser, I have no way out."
Her eyes were dark, and the despair in them was unfathomable. She continued, "Unlike Xu Yujie, she was only deceived, not driven to a dead end."
Upon hearing this, Kui Kui suddenly realized that injustice and merit were two different things.
Heaven will not bestow merit upon a female ghost simply because she died unjustly.
A thought arose, and Kui Kui made a rough guess that the female ghost possessed merits.
She asked, "Did you commit suicide?"
The female ghost was taken aback. "How did you know?"
Kui Kui didn't answer, but continued to ask, "Did you also save Xu Yujie?"
The female ghost was even more shocked. After a moment of silence, she nodded slightly.
"Yes. She shouldn't have died. She had friends who cared about her. She shouldn't have died, unlike me..."
Her voice grew softer and softer, and she didn't continue speaking, but Kui Kui and Mang Wei could guess what she wanted to say.
When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down.
Even her family members wouldn't stand by her side, let alone the outsiders who were just watching the spectacle.
Have you saved anyone else?
"I've saved some people, but they were all people who were just having a moment of despair."
Mang Wei said with great regret, "Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. If you hadn't killed this scumbag, all this merit would have made you an immortal!"
The female ghost glanced at Cao Yuehua and said indifferently, "If I had another chance to choose, I would still kill him. This kind of person doesn't deserve to live in this world! I didn't save people for any merit, but just because I didn't want to see anyone repeat my tragedy."
She looked at Kui Kui and said, "I've always hoped that someone would lend me a hand when I'm in despair, even if it's just to say a word for me. It doesn't have to be anything, just standing by my side is enough."
"I still don't know my benefactor's name. If it weren't for my benefactor, I might still be trapped in my own obsession."
"My name is Kui Kui, what's yours?"
"Shu Xueqing".
Shu Xueqing and Cao Yuehua both went with the underworld messengers.
Whether one's actions in this life are meritorious or demeritful, the judge shall decide.
Jiang Tangzheng looked at Chen Haiguo and said, "Captain Chen, let's go arrest Wang Desheng now!"
"Arrest? Where would you arrest them? What grounds would you use to arrest them?" Chen Haiguo retorted irritably.
Seeing Jiang Tang's bitter face, looking like a wilted eggplant, he couldn't help but sigh and say, "First, check the case files and find out who Wang Desheng really is."
He then said to Xu Jie, "Dispose of Cao Yuehua's body properly and make it public. We can only report it as an accident."
"Yes, Captain Chen." Xu Jie responded, standing still and continuing to process everything he had just witnessed.
"What are you still standing there for! Come on, let's take the body back and deal with it!" Chen Haiguo was extremely annoyed.
"I'm sorry, Kui Kui, I made you laugh at me. Thank you for today."
"It's all what I should do. I'll leave the rest to Uncle Chen. If you need anything from me, just let me know." Kui Kui knew that Shu Xueqing's case was difficult to investigate, firstly because it had been a long time, and secondly because Shu Xueqing had died by suicide.
Even if the case files from that year could be found, it wouldn't necessarily bring Wang Desheng to justice.
"Okay. It's getting late, I'll have Xiao Jiang take you home!"
"No need, I'll take Kui Kui back." Mo Ye's tall figure blocked Jiang Tangzheng's view.
He grabbed Kui Kui by the waist and flew straight into the sky, leaving a group of police officers with their heads held high, mouths agape, eating the northwest wind.
Mang Wei did not leave, but instead focused her attention on Jiang Tangzheng and the others.
Her scarlet eyes darted around, she coughed lightly, put her hands behind her back, struck a pose of superiority, and said, "Want to fly? I can take you flying too."
