Chapter 370: Heartbroken
Shen Yunyi was horrified, thinking he had heard wrongly, and hurriedly asked: "Brother, you, you must not joke with me, how could Xiaowu die!"
Shen Changfeng looked painful as he told Luo Haijiang that he had to choose between the two options.
"So Big Brother chose the Third Brother..." Shen Yunyi's face turned pale, "What about Little Five? Big Brother, you didn't care about her?"
"Brother! Didn't you tell me that you would make it up to Xiaowu? But you gave up on her with your own hands. You..."
Shen Yunyi thought about the suffering Shen Wan had endured over the past eighteen years. Even if he and his elder brother came to their senses and wanted to treat her well again, it was too late.
Shen Yunyi said with a broken heart: "And Xiaowu died hungry... She was locked up for four days before she died!"
After he said this, Shen Changfeng was filled with remorse and blamed himself so much that he couldn't breathe.
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't insisted on locking Xiaowu in the room, she wouldn't have been captured by Luo Haijiang... Second brother, what should I do? How should I face Xiaowu if I go to the underworld?"
"Will Xiaowu hate me for giving up on her and not wanting her anymore?"
Shen Changfeng felt heartbroken when he thought of Xiaowu's hurt expression on the rooftop.
Shen Yunyi looked at his elder brother who was blaming himself, not knowing what to say. After a long while, he sighed and said, "Brother, this cannot be blamed on you. If you want to blame someone, blame the cruel and mad Luo Haijiang. He not only harmed Xiaowu, but also made the third brother lose his legs. The third brother has not yet survived the crisis."
"Second brother, if it were you at that time, who would you choose?" Shen Changfeng seemed to find some comfort from him.
Shen Yunyi smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, to be honest, if it were me, I would probably choose the third brother as well."
"The third child's academic performance is better than ours. He is very smart and a prodigy at a young age. Giving up such a genius is a loss for all of us."
Shen Changfeng felt even more upset: "Yes, we would subconsciously choose the third child, what about the fifth child..."
"Brother, don't be like this. If I were there at the time, we could have saved one person each and this tragedy wouldn't have happened." Shen Yunyi comforted him, "Brother, you take care of Lao San here. I'll go to the research institute to check. The fire is out now. Maybe we can find something about Xiao Wu..."
Shen Yunyi's throat choked and he was unable to speak.
The explosion was so violent that we would be lucky to find even some tissue fragments, let alone a body.
Shen Changfeng suddenly got up from the ground, with a firm face: "Old Third, you stay here, I'll go to the research institute!"
Shen Yunyi was worried that he would be even more upset when he saw the miserable state of the research institute. "Brother, let me go. I'm afraid you can't stand the miserable sight of the ruins. I know what to do."
"Okay then... Second brother, you must bring Xiaowu back, even if it's only a little bit... you must bring him back a little bit." Shen Changfeng said with a sob.
Shen Yunyi nodded with a heavy expression.
After the explosion, the entire research institute was reduced to ruins. Fortunately, apart from the missing Shen Wan and the seriously injured Shen Moyan, there were no other casualties.
The fire had been put out by firefighters. The people at the research institute were so angry that some fainted and some cried as they watched their hard work go down in an instant.
Some stood in front of the ruins and cursed Luo Haijiang, insulting his ancestors and his parents' genitals.
Even though Shen Yunyi had prepared himself mentally halfway, he was still deeply shocked when he saw the research institute in a mess that looked like ruins.
"It's so serious... There's no way there would be any remains. Xiaowu was probably vaporized instantly during the explosion..."
Shen Yunyi looked at the unrecognizable research institute. The building was blown to pieces, and the instruments and equipment were tilted, twisted and deformed, and scattered all over the ground.
The pungent burning smell in the air almost made him vomit.
He tried hard to identify where Building 2 used to be.
Building 2 is impossible to enter, with rocks everywhere.
Shen Yunyi tried hard to climb up, but slipped down several times.
"Xiaowu, don't be afraid, your second brother is here to take you home!"
He gritted his teeth and reached up.
"Hey, this place is very dangerous. There is a risk of a second collapse at any time. Get out of here!"
The firefighters found Shen Yunyi and went straight up to take him away.
Shen Yunyi cried and begged: "Brother, please let me go up, my sister is still waiting for me on the rooftop!"
"No, we are responsible for your personal safety. You should leave here quickly!" The firefighter held Shen Yunyi tightly and prevented him from entering.
Shen Yunyi struggled endlessly, tears streaming down his face: "I can't leave my sister behind. She must be scared in the ruins alone. She is very afraid of the dark. Please let me go in and find her!"
The firefighter said seriously: "If you go up now, you will only cause trouble. Our teammates are doing their best to search and rescue. Please wait patiently in a safe area."
As he said that, he dragged Shen Yunyi outside the cordon and sent someone to watch him.
Shen Yunyi collapsed on the ground helplessly, his heart twitching in pain, tears flowing uncontrollably, and he murmured Shen Wan's name.
"Oh, right, there are ghosts in this world. Call their souls and you'll see Xiaowu!"
Shen Yunyi suddenly regained his strength and quickly took out his cell phone to check his contacts.
He contacted Jiangcheng Xuanmen, but when the other party heard that it was the Shen family, they immediately scolded him and said that no one in the Shen family was a good person.
Shen Yunyi was so confused by the scolding that he had no idea what was going on.
After thinking it over, he called Qi Chong.
He thought that Qi Chong was from the Ninth Bureau after all and was friends with Xiao Wu, so he would definitely be willing to help.
Qi Chong has now started his own business and opened a private organization specializing in solving supernatural incidents. When he received a call from Shen Yunyi and heard him say that he wanted to summon the soul of Shen Wan, he thought he was being scammed.
"Captain Qi, I didn't lie to you. I am really Shen Wan's second brother, Shen Yunyi." Shen Yunyi said in a sad tone, "Do you know about the explosion at the research institute?"
Qi Chong: "I know, what's wrong?"
"The only person who died in this accident was my Xiaowu. There is no trace of her body left. I just want to summon her soul. Captain Qi, you must have a way to summon her soul, right?"
Qi Chong laughed angrily: "Shen Lao Er, no one would curse people like you. Who is Master Shen? How could she be blown to death?"
"Before you make up lies, could you please understand clearly first?"
Qi Chong knew Shen Wan’s abilities. During the Aishan zombie incident, Xiao Wenli’s explosives didn’t kill Master Shen, so how could she die in the explosion at the research institute?
If this is true, then the five ghosts carrying the sedan chair are really just eating for free.
Shen Yunyi was anxious: "Xiao Wu is really dead! Captain Qi, I won't joke about my own sister's life and death. If you promise me, then come over. I'll wait for you outside the research institute!"
