Seeing the evil spirit, Bai Ran couldn't help but take a step back and immediately said, "I don't know him."
"Then let me help you recall. On the afternoon of the 13th, I was riding a shared bicycle on my way to Bai's house." Chi Shen walked over slowly.
Bai Ran's pupils twitched suddenly, his eyes were filled with fear, he observed Chi Shen, but did not find any trace of Bai Wan, it seemed that he only brought this armless ghost with him. He gritted his teeth, turned around, got up and ran to the door, shouting: "I don't know him!"
"Still can't remember?" Chi Shen lowered his eyes and thought for a while, "Then how about this, you help him recall, this time, he - is that old lady."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chi Shen let go of the hand that was holding the broken-armed ghost.
The armless ghost turned around and glanced at Chi Shen. Chi Shen waved at him, revealing the fishing line in his hand and a warm smile.
Seeing that smile, the armless ghost felt like he had seen a ghost. He quickly crawled towards Bai Ran and raised his hand to grab Bai Ran.
Bai Ran's hand had already touched the door handle. He sensed danger and subconsciously turned around. Looking at the ghost figure crawling towards him quickly, he reacted quickly. He quickly grabbed cinnabar and talisman paper from the backpack prepared for him by Xu Xiuyun. However, when those things were sprinkled on the armless ghost, there was no reaction, as if they had no effect.
"Impossible!" Bai Ran's pupils constricted and he immediately went to open the door. However, the ghost was faster and grabbed Bai Ran's calf and pulled him back.
Chi Shen said slowly beside him: "Do you remember it this time?"
The cold air penetrated into the skin of his calf, and the bone-piercing coldness spread from his legs to his whole body. His bones creaked in the ghost's hand. The ghost had already cut Bai Ran's calf, and the bloody red blood slowly soaked into his trouser legs.
"I remember now!" The fear of dying overwhelmed Bai Ran in an instant, and he yelled, "It was the ghost that pushed the old lady and hit you that day!"
Chi Shen then smiled and nodded: "I'm glad you remembered it now."
The armless ghost did not stop. The red blood on his trouser legs ignited his eyes like sparks. His eyes turned red in an instant. Guided by the bloody smell, he opened his mouth with a broken jaw and bit down!
"Ah!" Bai Ran's scream of pain pierced his eardrums.
The fishing line in Chi Shen's hand moved slightly, and when the ghost wanted to take a second bite, he suddenly stopped. He seemed to be dazed for a moment, and the next second, his entire head slid to the ground.
The headless body was still moving, and its hands were groping as if trying to pick up its own head. Chi Shen walked over, crushed the ghost's head with one foot, and then crushed the ghost's body with another foot. The armless ghost turned into black gas and disappeared.
"Of course!" Xu Xiuyun's voice suddenly came from outside the door. She asked gently and worriedly, "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Xiuyun was worried about Bai Ran. The house she lived in was not far from Bai Ran. When she heard Bai Ran's roar, she came over to check.
"Mom!" Bai Ran screamed, "Don't come in, Chi Shen is here to seek revenge on me, go and call Second Grandpa!"
"Was it you who summoned the ghost that day?" Chi Shen asked calmly without paying attention to Bai Ran's request for help.
Bai Ran's face was pale, he felt cold all over, and he replied tremblingly: "It's me."
"So you are the main person responsible for the old lady's injury?" Chi Shen continued to ask.
"Yes... No! It's not me!" Bai Ran pressed his injured leg, jumped twice, and leaned against the wall behind him. His tone suddenly became bad, "Do you think I didn't want you to return to the Bai family, so I framed you halfway? No... No, this is what your father asked me to do."
This answer surprised Chi Shen very much, and he suddenly became interested: "Oh?"
"Is that why you came to me? I didn't expect it was just for such a small matter. Don't you want to take revenge on me? You are not doing this for revenge!" Bai Ran suddenly laughed. The huge pain made him realize that this was not a dream, but the issue that Chi Shen cared about made him laugh out loud.
He looked at Chi Shen as if he was looking at an innocent child, "Chi Shen, you know nothing about this place and these so-called big families, right? This is a rotten place. How can someone like you who has lived in the ordinary world since childhood understand our rules?"
Chi Shen looked at him with a smile, and seemed to find this situation very interesting. He said, "Go on."
"You are the blood of the Bai family's main family. In a family where blood ties are more important than anything else, you can inherit the Bai family when you return, so my father asked me to test your character." Bai Ran sneered and said, "The test question is to see how you deal with someone after hitting him."
At this time, a pale ghost face was pressed against the window. He just rushed over and heard Bai Ran's words. He said in a sharp voice: "He took good care of others who tried to scam him. He gave them money and sent people. Hasn't he passed your character test? This is outrageous!"
Bai Ran saw the ghost face, but he did not show any fear, he even laughed out loud.
"I was thinking," Chi Shen lowered his eyebrows, the warm light fell on his eyelashes, casting a small shadow on his face, blocking the color in his eyes, "this character test should not be a test of how good my character is, but a test of my character, whether I am suitable to return to the Bai family."
"Yes, that's right!" Bai Ran laughed. "It was someone else who bumped into you, but you took the initiative to take responsibility and sent him to the hospital. People like you... people like you who don't know how dangerous the world is, will only be a hidden danger if you return to the Bai family."
He almost laughed until tears came out, but he was still smiling: "One day you will definitely uncover the dirty deeds of the family. Just like those people in the Special Security Bureau, you dream of saving the world and betraying the Bai family. The Bai family doesn't want people like you at all. They want people like me who are selfish, who tie their own interests to the family, and who can sell their souls for the sake of profit!"
"Not letting you return to the Bai family is for your own good." Bai Ran said at the end, his voice suddenly softened, he looked at Chi Shen quietly, "It's not to harm you."
Guimian was already confused, and his whole face wrinkled together: "It seems to make sense? Will Chi Shen go back to the Bai family? This kind of Bai family is not worthy of him going back!"
"It seems to make sense." Chi Shen nodded.
Seeing Chi Shen nod, Bai Ran's eyes showed joy.
"But why drag an innocent person into this?" Chi Shen raised his eyelashes slightly and looked at Bai Ran.
At this time, Bai Ran realized that after all his words, Chi Shen's eyes were not moved. He was not moved by Bai Ran's long speech at all. Instead, he was very calm, and even looked at Bai Ran as if he were another creature: "For this kind of thing, you can ask me directly, or tell me directly. Even if you design a garbage collection link to test me when I come in, I have no complaints. But why did you drag an old lady who has nothing to do with us in?"
"To be honest, I don't understand." Chi Shen said slowly, "You seem to put yourselves in a superior position and think that ordinary people are just tools... I am not interested in correcting your thoughts. I came here today just to make you take your responsibilities."
Bai Ran took a look at his bloody leg and immediately said, "Is this what you did? You should go find Bai Ximing! This is none of my business!"
Chi Shen shook his head and asked, "Was it your decision to find that old lady or was it Bai Ximing's decision?"
Bai Ran's eyes moved, as if he wanted to say something.
Chi Shen interrupted him and said, "I think Bai Ximing just wants you to test my character, and you decide how to test it, and you are the one who chooses the old lady."
In the memory of the one-armed ghost, Chi Shen saw everything. The old lady just happened to be standing at that intersection waiting for the red light that day, and she happened to become Bai Ran's target.
"No, it was Bai Ximing who chose it!" Bai Ran suddenly struggled, "It wasn't me!"
Chi Shen stood up slowly and said, "Now that it has been made clear, you, as the person who carried out this matter, should also pay the due price."
"Sorry for disturbing you by visiting me so late at night. I think I have to find another person responsible to deal with this matter." Chi Shen said politely, turned to the window, and jumped out of it cleanly.
Ghost Face also followed, and when he reached the window, he looked back at Bai Ran. The place where he was bitten by the broken-arm ghost quickly turned black and deteriorated. Bai Ran screamed again, and the whole room was filled with the sound of pain.
Chi Shen had just landed and had not yet looked for where Bai Ximing lived, but he found that the garden was suddenly brightly lit, and countless people came from the main gate of the house and surrounded him.
On the second floor, Bai Ran leaned against the window and shouted in pain: "Second Grandfather, it's him! He was the one who raised the ghost and killed He Chao and Lu Xiangyang!"
Bai Ximing came out of the crowd and looked at Chi Shen: "Killing someone means paying with one's life. Chi Shen, you have to give an explanation to the He family and the Lu family."
Surrounded by the crowd, Chi Shen was not panicked at all. He even smiled and looked up at Bai Ran on the second floor: "I forgot to mention that there is an old friend who wants to see you and reminisce about the past."
A foul smell came, and at the outskirts of the garden, a ghost covered with tumors stood there quietly, looking up at Bai Ran.
