Chapter 27 Selling a lawsuit
Trying to reason with a woman is asking for trouble, and trying to reason with a female ghost is probably asking for death.
"Master, what should I do? You have to help me!"
I took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, handed it to Blind Man Cao respectfully with both hands, and looked at him pitifully.
Blind Cao took the cigarette and smiled and said: "Don't worry! Since I promised you, I will definitely help you. As long as you find out the root cause and help her redress her grievance, she will not pester you anymore."
"Find the root cause?"
I originally thought that Blind Cao would accept her, or beat her to pieces, or at the worst, seal her away.
I didn't expect that he wanted to find out the cause of the female ghost's death. This was beyond my expectation. Are all warlocks so kind?
"How do we investigate this? Even if we find out the cause of death of the female ghost, how do we tell the police? Do we tell the police that the ghost told us? Isn't this nonsense? Who will believe it?"
"It depends on how you negotiate. I am only responsible for helping you find out the truth. Let's go! It's time to patrol."
After finishing speaking, Blind Cao picked up the flashlight and walked out of the detention room with his hands behind his back. I suddenly had a dark line on my face. How could I negotiate such a bizarre matter? I would probably be arrested and sent to a mental hospital as soon as I said it.
"Hey! Master, wait for me."
Seeing Blind Cao walking further and further away, I hurriedly chased him with a flashlight. When I caught up with Blind Cao, I asked in confusion: "Master, why do you want to help her find out the truth? Why don't you just give her to her?"
Destroy her? To prevent her from harming others in the future."
"She is an innocent soul, not an evil ghost. I cannot hunt her down without any reason. It will damage her moral character and cause karma. What's more, she is still my guest and uses money to help others eliminate disasters. I should help her redress her grievances due to circumstances and reasons.
"
"Oh! What if she doesn't want to leave if the truth is found out? What if she comes out to scare me or asks me to be her scapegoat in the future?"
This is what worries me the most. After all, I am just an ordinary person who does not have the ability and courage of blind man Cao. He cannot withstand such extraordinary human torture.
Although I have a Thousand Talisman Album and a writing brush to protect my body, I don't know how to use those things now, which is no different from a chicken elbow.
Blind Cao paused, turned around and looked me up and down with a strange expression.
I looked at him blankly and asked, "What's wrong, master? Did I say anything wrong?"
"You're right, but you can rest assured that the wronged soul is not as shameless as you. As long as her wish is fulfilled and her resentment and worries are gone, she will naturally return to the underworld and be reincarnated. Moreover, your face affects my appetite even when I see it.
Not to mention the female ghost, you are already blessed to have a female ghost haunting you, boy, just be content!"
After finishing speaking, Blind Cao turned around and strode away, leaving his brother standing alone and messy in the wind.
Only then did I understand why Blind Cao didn't like to talk very much. His words would choke people to death. If I had been in the past, I would have yelled loudly, but now I am still haunted by the ghost of injustice, so I can only ask for permission to fawn over the good Blind Cao.
"I...fuck...this guy has definitely never been beaten up by society."
My brother secretly cursed, but at this moment, a cold wind happened to blow. I shivered all over, crossed my arms and hurried to catch up with Blind Man Cao.
"Master, are you exaggerating? I just have some acne on my face. It's not as disgusting as you said. I used to be a handsome guy when I didn't have acne on my face." I told him.
Blind Cao retorted while walking behind him.
By the way, six or seven years ago, when I didn’t have acne on my face, I was quite handsome. Although I wasn’t considered handsome, I was still pretty. As I grew older, my acne didn’t disappear but became more and more frequent.
It's also the thing that worries me the most.
Blind Cao chuckled twice and then stopped talking. I curled my lips and didn't bother to tell him anymore. He didn't believe it anyway. When we walked to the waiting room, Blind Cao and I parted ways and started patrolling.
Back in the detention room, Cao Xiazi began to sit on the chair and smoke cigarettes again. The entire detention room was filled with smoke, and the smell of the smoke was particularly unpleasant.
I walked to the window and opened it a crack, turned around and complained: "Master, can you smoke less dry tobacco? The smell of smoke is so strong, it will kill you."
"Your smoke is too weak, but this one has a feeling." After Cao said that, he took out two bottles of 4-liang liquor from his arms, raised his eyes and looked at me and asked, "Would you like some?"
"No, I can't drink liquor."
"Drink some! It's cold, drink something to keep warm."
Cao Xiazi put a bottle of white wine on the table and said calmly, unscrewed the white wine in his hand and drank by himself.
I looked at the white wine on the table and hesitated for a moment, then finally stepped forward, picked up the white wine and unscrewed the bottle cap.
I held the bottle and sniffed it at the tip of my nose. The pungent smell of alcohol immediately hit my nostrils. I pinched my nose and took two sips. There was a burning feeling in my throat, which made me grin.
"Damn it! This wine is too strong! Hiss~ it's killing me."
"Haha! Stronger wine can make you warmer. Just get used to drinking it." Blind Cao took a sip and said with a smile.
I curled my lips and disagreed with this. As someone who can get drunk even with beer, I really couldn't drink this thing.
"Hey! Master, is the female ghost's body still in the cold room? When do you plan to start checking?"
"Tomorrow night, the body has been taken away by the family members. I need to go to the deceased's home tomorrow."
"Oh! Then how are you going to check? Are you going to summon spirits?"
"You will know tomorrow. Don't ask so many questions now. Just wait and see while I keep my eyes open for a while."
Blind Cao drank the liquor in his hand, stood up, put two chairs opposite each other, lay on them and began to take a nap. I felt depressed for a while, but I didn't expect that this blind man would even start a lawsuit.
Just when I wanted to ask more questions, Blind Cao was already snoring. I stretched out my hands and gave him two middle fingers to show my dissatisfaction.
