Qin Qingzhou looks like a tough, masculine type, so it's quite a contrast that he's holding the hand of such an adorable child.

Yu Bei casually removed his limited-edition sunglasses and politely nodded to Miao Miao: "Miss Miao."

Miao Miao had only contacted Yu Bei by phone, and she never expected that everyone in his agency would be so handsome.

"Hello, hello." Miao Miao had forgotten to hide.

Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed reporters noticing them not far away. Forget about whether she looked handsome or not, she quickly unlocked the car door: "Get in first, I'll take you to Yueyue's house."

There were too many reporters here, and Miao Miao was afraid they would expose Chu Yue's home location, so she specially brought a company car to pick them up.

Yu Bei naturally sat in the passenger seat, while Qin Qingzhou and Bai Zhizhi sat in the back seat.

Miao Miao looked and looked, but still didn't understand why they brought a cute little kid along.

And this cute kid looks strangely familiar, like I've seen him somewhere before?

"Let me introduce you. The two people behind me are the criminal investigation captain and analyst from the Public Security Bureau of City A," Yu Bei said calmly, noticing her gaze.

Bai Zhizhi immediately sat up straight, as if doing so would make her seem smarter.

Analyst...are you serious?

Although Miao Miao didn't say anything, her eyes betrayed her.

Qin Qingzhou was used to interrogating others, so she naturally began in an interrogative tone: "Do you still have the things Chu Yue received before?"

Miao Miao felt inexplicably nervous: "I've kept it."

"On the day Chu Yue disappeared, did you sense anything strange?"

"Um... I think there is..."

It was just a normal day of running around doing promotional work. Because they were preparing to record a legal education program the next day, Miao Miao specially found a lot of legal programs and related knowledge books for Chu Yue to read.

Chu Yue was watching the show alone in her room. Around midnight, she suddenly ran out, acting strangely.

"Miaomiao! Miaomiao! There's someone outside our window!"

"Sister Yue, have you been too stressed lately? We live on the tenth floor, how could there possibly be someone outside our window?"

Chu Yue was clearly terrified: "It's true! I saw it! That person was even smiling at me! Wait! Was that a person? Or was it a ghost?!"

Miao Miao was also a little scared by what she said, and she rubbed her arms as she walked into the room: "Don't scare me, sis, I'm really afraid of ghosts."

Entering the room, Miao Miao found it pitch black outside the window. Mustering her courage, she opened the window and looked out: "There's nothing there."

Moreover, their windows are just open space outside; there's no balcony, so it's impossible for anyone to be standing outside.

Chu Yue, frightened, quickly glanced around and indeed saw no one.

"Could I have really seen wrong? That scared me to death!"

"Sister Yue, have you been working too hard lately? I'll arrange for you to see a psychologist sometime; you're not feeling well." Miao Miao put her book away: "Don't read today, get some rest. You can't afford to make a mistake during tomorrow's recording."

"Okay." Chu Yue rubbed her eyes, feeling that she must be hallucinating.

Miao Miao left Chu Yue's house only after watching Chu Yue fall asleep.

The next day, when I went to her house to call her, I found that she was gone.

"I don't know if this counts as unusual?" Miao Miao glanced at Qin Qingzhou in the rearview mirror. "I checked the security footage in the neighborhood later, and there wasn't anyone suspicious."

"That's the guy who took my sister away." Bai Zhizhi joined their conversation: "He came to take my sister to get married. Because he's a ghost groom, my sister can see him."

Miao Miao's hair stood on end.

What is this kid saying? How scary!

Qin Qingzhou thought for a moment: "So, Tang Yicheng taking Chu Yue away won't be caught on surveillance cameras?"

Bai Zhizhi nodded vigorously, "Because back then, the big bad guy sucked away my sister's soul, and my sister became a ghost."

Yu Bei calmly added, "Chu Yue is currently in a half-human, half-ghost state. Once the ritual is completed, she will become a real ghost, which means she will die."

"Therefore, we must stop the ceremony from taking place."

Miao Miao was so uncomfortable, she almost wanted to jump out of the car.

What nonsense is this? What are they talking about? Is this even a topic for conversation?!

Is it really okay to invite them?

After finally arriving at Chu Yue's house, Miao Miao quickly jumped out of the car and invited the several large statues into the house.

Upon entering the room, Bai Zhizhi and Yu Bei's expressions both turned sour.

"A very strong aura of a spirit; the token of the ghost marriage is indeed still there." Yu Bei, being physically weak, clenched his fists as he was overwhelmed by the aura of a spirit.

Bai Zhizhi was immediately attracted by the pile of beautiful gifts in the corner, and ran over excitedly to start rummaging through them.

Miaomiao instinctively stopped her: "Little one, don't move around..."

Bai Zhizhi pulled out an ugly, old doll from the pile of gifts.

Upon seeing it, Miao Miao was speechless, covering her mouth in shock: "I... I threw this thing away, didn't I?"

"You can't throw away this token, sister. When the bride touches this token, it means she agrees to the marriage."

"How could this happen..."

"You've been talking about ghost marriages from the beginning, what's going on?"

Yu Bei calmly explained the whole story to her. Miao Miao became more and more shocked as she listened, and finally, her legs gave way and she collapsed onto the sofa.

"Impossible! How could such a thing happen?"

Bai Zhizhi walked over and placed the doll in Miao Miao's hands: "If you don't believe me, you can open this doll and see what's inside."

Miao Miao glanced at Bai Zhizhi, a little afraid of the doll.

But Bai Zhizhi looks like a little fairy, and for some reason, looking at her makes me feel quite at ease, as if I could fight off even a ghost.

Under Bai Zhizhi's watchful gaze, she opened the doll.

Then a large black mass fell out from the back of the doll, mixed with other things.

Miao Miao looked closely and, after recognizing what it was, screamed and threw the doll on the ground.

Then the contents fell out piecemeal.

Hair, nails, red thread, willow branches, etc., it looks really creepy.

"Don't be afraid, sister. This thing can save the bride." Bai Zhizhi turned around and glanced at Yu Bei.

Yu Bei understood what she meant, walked over and closed all the windows, then took out a bag of salt and a bag of raw glutinous rice from his bag and scattered them around the doll on the ground.

Bai Zhizhi stood inside the circle, took out a yellow talisman, wrote some fancy words on it, and finally stuck it on the doll.

A ring of blue flames immediately ignited around the doll. Bai Zhizhi stared at the blue flames with her big eyes until the flames burned out and the doll was reduced to ashes.

The little boy looked very serious, closed his eyes and recited a few incantations. After opening his eyes, he looked at Qin Qingzhou and said, "Uncle, Zhizhi has found the location of the bride sister."

"Zhizhi has temporarily closed the passage for their ghost marriage. Those big bad guys can't get married yet. Uncle, hurry up and take Zhizhi over to stop them!"

"The passage won't be closed for long, Zhizhi must hurry and save her sister!"
