Three boys looked over together, all frightened to the point of wobbly legs.
They saw a yellow talisman paper hovering an inch above the body of the slumbering classmate, motionless.
The talisman slowly drifted over, and the classmate standing next to Gu Lili quickly sidestepped away.
The classmate who had been sleeping also opened his eyes at this time.
"I was sent by the police. Get dressed, everyone, and come out with me."
She walked ahead while the talisman paper closely followed behind her, with several male classmates tremblingly trailing behind.
They went straight to the front of the school affairs office.
The police and school leaders were all present.
Seeing the talisman paper floating in the air, everyone’s faces showed astonishment.
None of them understood what was happening.
Gu Lili glanced at the handsome foreigner and said to everyone, "When I ran into this classmate at the boys’ dormitory entrance, I just happened to see a white shadow drifting over. There was no time to explain to this classmate, who probably wouldn’t believe me anyway, so I used talisman paper to trace it. Then I went to the third floor, and this little brat was trying to possess this classmate..."
She pointed towards the male classmate who almost got possessed, "It was just in time. Thinking about it, we were both at the entrance, and the little ghost, seeing neither of us moved, instead went to the third floor. It shows that what he needs are those in deep sleep, indeed easier to possess than those who are awake; after all, the vitality of students is generally strong, youthful and vigorous. A ghost has to choose an easy target to possess."
After she finished speaking, her gaze turned towards the direction of the talisman paper, "You must be Wu Yajun, the male student who drowned himself in the lake last year. If it was suicide, why would you still harbor such a strong resentment?"
Wu Yajun tried to run but couldn’t, and he was even less willing to speak.
He just looked at Gu Lili.
"Not talking?" Gu Lili turned to the Principal, "Find a way to contact his family. Since he won’t speak, I’ll send him to the underworld to be reincarnated. His actions will be judged down below."
The sound from Wu Yajun startled everyone present, looking as if struck dumb. If they hadn’t experienced this themselves, they would never believe such mystical things could exist.
"You caused the deaths of three students, what else do you have to say?"
"Oh?" Gu Lili looked at him, "Your own life means so little to you, and you regard others’ lives as trivial as weeds. I’m curious to hear what your reason is." Follow current novels on novel·fire.net
"I chose to drown myself in the lake because of the devastation from a breakup. In fact, as soon as I died, I regretted it. Seeing my weeping and shattered parents, I really wanted to live again. That’s why I was reluctant to be reincarnated. But I never thought... I had been dead for so long, yet there were still people talking and laughing about my stupid act..."
Gu Lili sighed inwardly; surely the three deceased classmates never imagined that they died for such a reason.
There was a wave of sighs among the crowd.
Gu Lili took out the tools for performing the ritual from her bag and personally sent Wu Yajun’s ghost to the underworld.
She asked everyone to wait here while she went to the lakeside. She instantly understood where the lost lone souls and wild ghosts in the campus had gathered.
The ghosts who, after dying, did not go for reincarnation and clung to the human world, needed to be dealt with.
She then returned to the group and said to the Principal, "Principal, I suggest that you fill up that lake and hold a ritual there."
"Okay, Miss Gu. Are there many in that lake?"
"This school itself is built on a mass grave, isn’t it? There’s no shortage of filthy things, but it seems everything is mostly gathered there. It’s necessary to fill it up."
