Siheyuan: Hang Jia Dongxu, smash Banggeng to death!

"Ah!!! I'm bleeding profusely!! I'm bleeding again!! Sha Zhu, get up right now!!!"

Yi Zhonghai shoved Sha Zhu, who was in excruciating pain.

I never want to have children again; childbirth is truly agonizing.

So be it, the family line ends.

Old Liu struggled to get up, but his legs felt like they were made of lead and he couldn't move them.

He stared intently at He Yushui's corpse, only to see the body slowly turn its head, its empty eyes staring at the three of them.

He Yushui tossed the watermelon head in her hand, as if she were playing with a ball.

With each bounce, the hearts of the three trembled.

"Go...go quickly..." Old Liu finally found his voice and said hoarsely.

Yi Zhonghai clutched his stomach, blood seeping from under the gauze: "Shazhu! Carry me on your back! Quickly!"

Sha Zhu got up from the ground and glanced at He Yushui—no, that was no longer He Yushui.

He glanced again at Yi Zhonghai, whose face was pale with pain, and the thought of running away on his own flashed through his mind.

But exorcising evil spirits requires Yi Zhonghai.

.

If he dies, will evil spirits come after him directly?

Just like now, he directly possessed his younger sister's body.

The thought sent a chill down Sha Zhu's spine. He gritted his teeth, bent down, and grabbed Yi Zhonghai's arm: "Uncle, just bear with it, we're leaving now!"

As he spoke, he roughly hoisted Yi Zhonghai onto his shoulder, like carrying a sack of potatoes.

Yi Zhonghai was in so much pain that he almost fainted, but he gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound.

Seeing this, Old Liu scrambled to his feet, grabbed his satchel from the ground, and followed.

Just as the three rushed to the door, they heard a whooshing sound behind them.

"Bang!!"

A watermelon from Liu Haizhong's hair came flying at him, hitting Yi Zhonghai squarely on the back.

Yi Zhonghai screamed and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Run...run!!" he roared.

Sha Zhu glanced at the watermelon head that had fallen to the ground out of the corner of his eye. It rolled a few times on the ground and stopped by the threshold.

Liu Haizhong's face was facing upwards, and his half-open eyes seemed to be staring at them.

Sha Zhu was startled, and Yi Zhonghai almost fell off his back again. He rushed out of the courtyard gate recklessly, with Old Liu following closely behind.

The two stumbled into the alley and ran wildly without looking back.

After running for two blocks, Sha Zhu stopped by an abandoned courtyard wall, panting heavily.

He put Yi Zhonghai down and found that Yi Zhonghai had already fainted, and the gauze on his abdomen was completely soaked with blood.

"Old Yi! Old Yi!" Old Liu rushed forward to check, "It's over, the wound has completely reopened."

"Then... what do we do now?"

Sha Zhu looked back in alarm at the direction he had come from, fearing that He Yushui or that thing would catch up with him.

Old Liu frantically rummaged through his satchel and pulled out gauze and medicine powder: "This can only provide basic treatment. We need to hurry and find Third Master."

While re-bandaging Yi Zhonghai, he lowered his voice and said, "Shazhu, did you see that just now? That thing... it was playing tricks on us."

Sha Zhu shuddered: "Playing games?"

"It's like a cat catching mice," Old Liu's voice trembled, "It could have killed us on the spot, but it just scared us and watched us run for our lives."

These words sent a chill down Sha Zhu's spine.

He recalled the angle at which the watermelon head had hit him.

If that thing really wanted to kill, it could have smashed his head, but it just happened to hit Yi Zhonghai's back.

"What does it want to do?" Sha Zhu muttered.

Old Liu shook his head, his hands trembling as he bandaged the wound: "I don't know, but I have a feeling it won't let us off easily."

Meanwhile, in Old Liu's courtyard, Lin Tian's ghostly figure moved away from behind He Yushui's corpse.

Just now, he used the shadows in the darkness to manipulate He Yushui's corpse from behind, just to scare everyone.

Lin Tian bent down and picked up the watermelon head from Liu Hai's hair. He weighed the head in his hand and a strange smile appeared on his lips.

"The feeling of a cat playing with a mouse is truly amazing."

"First, make them despair, then give them a glimmer of hope, and finally, make them despair again."

He casually tossed the watermelon head next to He Yushui's body and gently patted the corpse's face.

"Your brother will be here to keep you company soon."

Lin Tian said, "But before that, I have something else to do."

On his way here, he saw that the man who covered up his hat had been released by the police station, but had also lost his job.

The reason is obvious: her husband protected her.

If she hadn't covered up the birds' names, her own family wouldn't have suffered so much. Anyone who participated was destined to die.

……

Director Wang's home is a detached courtyard house, which is considered quite good in the alley.

She was hanging clothes out to dry in the yard at that moment.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew by, and the clothes on the clothesline shook violently.

Director Wang frowned, looked up at the sky. The sun was shining brightly. Where did the wind come from?

Unbeknownst to her, Lin Tian's ghostly figure was silently watching her from the shadows of the courtyard wall.

"She dared to cover up the crimes of the scoundrels and seize my family's property. I don't believe that such a big thing could happen without her, a street office director, sharing the spoils afterward."

The original owner was only eight years old when both her parents died.

According to the law, his family's property and pension should be inherited by him as the sole heir, and the neighborhood committee should supervise them until he reaches adulthood or a relative takes over the supervision.

However, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Yan Bugui and their gang used a rental agreement to "temporarily take control" of all the property under his name.

What do eight-year-olds know?

Lin Tian looked coldly at Director Wang, "That contract is legally invalid, so how did they manage to make it work?"

The answer is obvious.

Director Wang of the subdistrict office stamped the certificate and also tampered with the records of the neighborhood committee.

In return, she estimated she received a sum of money.

After hanging up the clothes, Director Wang turned around to go back inside.

Just then, she heard a voice:

"Director Wang, it's been a long time."

The sound was very soft, like the wind blowing through leaves, yet it was eerily clear.

Director Wang turned around abruptly, only to find the courtyard completely empty.

"Who? Who's there?" Her voice trembled slightly.

"Don't you remember me?" a voice came from behind her. "I'm Lin Tian."

Director Wang jumped back as if electrocuted, his face instantly turning deathly pale: "Lin...Lin Tian? You weren't kidnapped by thugs..."

"Kidnapped?"

Lin Tian's ghostly figure slowly appeared in front of her, and he pretended to be threatening, saying, "Yes, I was kidnapped and murdered by thugs. You guys killed me."

"No...it's not my fault!"

"None of your business? Then what about when I was almost sent to the crematorium and my property was seized? Don't tell me that none of this has anything to do with you."

Director Wang took a few steps back, leaning against the courtyard wall. "It was all done by Yi Zhonghai and his men. I was just... just following the procedures."

"Follow procedure?"

Lin Tian laughed, a laugh that was icy and chilling. "According to procedure, does an eight-year-old's signature have legal effect? ​​Do you really think I know nothing? Do you think I'm a three-year-old who's easy to fool?"

"I am eight years old this year."

Director Wang's legs began to weaken: "I...I was forced into it. Yi Zhonghai said that if I didn't help, the old lady would be very unhappy, so I had no choice but to do as he said..."

"So you chose to destroy my family and aid and abet the evildoer?"

Lin Tian took a step closer. Although he had no physical form, the chill emanating from him almost suffocated Director Wang.

"I was wrong! I really know I was wrong!"

Director Wang slid to the ground, tears and snot streaming down his face. "I can make compensation. I will return all the money. I can also testify that Yi Zhonghai and his accomplices forged documents."

Lin Tian looked at her quietly for a long time before saying, "Do you know? I originally intended to kill you directly."

Director Wang was so frightened that he forgot to cry.

"But I've changed my mind now."

Lin Tian gave him a cold glare. "You're about to die and you're still lying to me. I'll make you wish you were dead and die in agony."
