Chapter 258 Restriction
"Uncle Jiu, would you like to hear it too?"
"Okay."
During the war, Chao sat cross-legged next to Yoyo, took the Heavenly Eye Talisman handed to him by the little guy, put it in his pocket, and a warm current surged into his heart. He opened his eyes and a female ghost came into view.
Because YoYo is a little Taoist priest, he is no longer surprised by these demons and monsters, and he has come to accept that this world is beyond nature and that some supernatural phenomena exist.
"Tell me your story now."
Yoyo was talking to Guigui while looking down at the colorful soft candies in her hand. After popping one into her mouth, she stuffed a handful into Zhanshi's palm and danced around happily.
The little dumpling's happiness seems to be very simple; all it takes is candy.
The female ghost glanced at the Black and White Impermanence figures on the bay window, knowing their identities and that even if she wanted to escape, she couldn't.
"Can you help me?"
Yes, but it depends on the situation.
After considering for a moment, the female ghost began to tell her story.
"On my birthday, my best friend spent a fortune to throw me a lavish birthday party at a bar. The whole class attended, including the boy I'd always secretly liked. Perhaps I was too obvious, because he realized I liked him. Then, with my best friend egging me on, I accidentally let it slip, and in the midst of the awkward moment, he confessed his feelings to me in front of everyone. I thought this was the beginning of happiness, the turning of the gears of fate, but little did I know it was the start of a slow descent into the abyss."
That night, neither of us could resist, and we tasted the forbidden fruit.
Upon hearing "forbidden fruit," Yoyo thought it was something delicious, something she'd never heard of before. She immediately perked up and couldn't help but interrupt the female ghost, "What's forbidden fruit? Is it good? I've never tasted it."
The three, Black and White Impermanence and Zhan Shichao, couldn't help but cough, their faces showing embarrassment and awkwardness.
"Honey, that's not food, it's a poisonous and harmful substance," Zhan Shichao patiently explained.
The Black and White Impermanence were racking their brains trying to figure out how to explain the term to the little girl, but unexpectedly, the wartime dynasty reacted quickly.
The human brain is just different.
"Continue." Bai Wuchang, with a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, raised his hand in a gesture of seeking permission.
"Then, I got pregnant." The female ghost's voice began to tremble with sobs. "I wanted to abort the child, but I didn't have any money. My younger brother and I grew up together, relying on each other. We lived with our aunt, but she wasn't kind to us. To save money for my abortion, my brother dropped out of school to work, but he had no education or connections, so he couldn't earn much money. Later, because it had been delayed for too long, the doctor told me directly that I couldn't have the abortion. The baby was already six or seven months along and fully formed. Aborting it would cause great damage to the mother's body. In the end, I discussed it with my brother all night, and we decided to tell my boyfriend about the pregnancy."
"But my boyfriend didn't acknowledge it at all. He even beat me and broke up with me, saying that he was only with me to see what it felt like to sleep with me."
The female ghost became increasingly distressed as she spoke, almost to the point of collapse. The surrounding resentment also gathered more and more, growing thicker and thicker, as if it were about to explode at any moment.
“I want to expose him, but if I do, it means I have to give up my own reputation. I’ll end up as a shameless woman with a child. I don’t want my child to be stigmatized, and I don’t want him to grow up under the scrutiny of others.”
"In the end, I chose to take on this responsibility alone. However, during childbirth, I suffered a severe hemorrhage and bled to death. Fortunately, the baby survived."
"So what is your obsession? Is it to get revenge on your boyfriend?" Yoyo asked.
"No, I don't need revenge, because evil people will be punished by heaven. Just a year ago, he went to climb a snow mountain and was caught in an avalanche, which buried him."
"So what is your obsession?" Yoyo asked again.
“My brother and my child. After I left, my brother resorted to blackmail to support the child. Those students at the schools were all well-off, or at the very least, rich kids. And I saw that he raised my son very well. He gave my son all his love. But at the same time, I can understand him. He had no choice but to choose this path.”
The female ghost took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind. "I want you to help me so that he can turn himself in. The child can be temporarily handed over to the orphanage."
"Is it him?" Zhan Shichao took out a photo on his phone and showed it to the female ghost.
When the female ghost spoke of her brother's experiences, Zhan Shichao could roughly guess that her brother might be the leader he had faced off against at the steel mill.
"Yes, that's him, he's my brother." The female ghost was surprised; how could he have a photo of her brother?
"I've already called the police." Zhan Shichao put his phone away and put it in his pocket.
He took a lot of photos that day, and during the day today, he collected some more evidence at the school before reporting it to the police on his way back.
"what?"
The female ghost wavered in her decision, but after thinking it over, she finally convinced herself.
"How long will he be sentenced to?"
"About two years," said the wartime court official.
The female ghost felt some comfort. Her son only needed to stay in the orphanage for two years before his uncle would be released from prison, take him home, and let him live a good life. This was the best ending.
