Lifting Mao Mao's clothes, Zhang Zhidong floated directly to the window.
"Remember to appease your girlfriend," he said, turning back before floating away with the little boy in his arms.
With the disappearance of the two spirits, the temperature returned to normal.
"..."
An Chen glanced out the window and silently put down his water glass.
Chapter 39 Spiritual Healing Center
That evening, Zhang Zhidong started up his antics again.
Perhaps inspired by An Chen, he decided to take matters into his own hands after failing to find a spiritual psychologist in the pseudo-capital. He set up a spiritual clinic outside the community, just to pave a broad road for the reincarnation of spirits wandering in the world.
He euphemistically called opening his rudimentary clinic outside the community a way of showing concern for both his younger brother and the lost spirits.
Zhang Zhidong has the ability to emit light and heat, and his spirit resistance is strong. There are not many spirits who have come to him specifically for help despite feeling unwell.
To solve this problem, Zhang Zhidong mainly dispatched the harmless little spirit Mao Mao to stay outside, while he himself was only responsible for emitting an aura to attract spirits and then arriving at the right time.
The next morning, after settling Naitang in, An Chen still took Jiu Ge out for breakfast.
As soon as he stepped out of the apartment, he sensed that something was wrong.
I have a feeling that some spirits have appeared at the entrance of the community in the distance.
"You'd better prepare yourself mentally." An Chen said calmly, his hands in his pockets.
Although he didn't say it aloud, he was actually a little excited inside.
"What kind of mental preparation?" Jiuge looked up, her expression somewhat puzzled.
Does this mean An Chen has already prepared the ring and is planning to propose at the right time?
Yesterday, Zhang Zhidong and Mao Maotou seemed to have mentioned that An Chen wanted to marry her.
Thinking about it this way, Jiuge blushed slightly and stood frozen in place, clutching the hem of her skirt.
Isn't this progress too fast?
She wasn't fully mentally prepared yet.
An Chen was somewhat puzzled by her behavior.
"You might be shocked when you go out later, so remember to try to stay calm."
He stopped walking and gave a vague explanation.
How shocking will it be?
Jiuge clenched her fingers and glanced at An Chen with some difficulty.
Staying calm isn't a bad idea; she's gotten used to pretending to be calm after all this time.
Could it be that he's doing the same kind of vulgar, straight-man tactics as those other guys who pursued her before, like setting up candles, sending flowers, and having a bunch of people help out?
If An Chen did this, Jiu Ge wouldn't mind.
But it's daytime now, and it's morning, so doing this might not have a good visual effect.
"You'll find out when we get out." An Chen chuckled and gestured for Jiu Ge to follow quickly.
It wasn't that he wanted to laugh, but An Chen couldn't help it when he thought about Jiu Ge's reaction later.
"Uh-huh."
With a blissful smile on her face, Jiu Ge followed An Chen, her body stiffening slightly.
Because she was so nervous, her movements became mechanical, and she even moved her hands and feet in unison.
An Chen didn't say anything, but just glanced back.
Having heard his tactful reminder, Jiuge was probably mentally prepared.
As An Chen approached the entrance of the community, he could already feel some warmth and light.
Jiuge also felt it, but her mind was temporarily short-circuited, and she mistook it for the light and heat of the candle.
Zhang Zhidong was already floating quite high in the sky, while Mao Maotou knelt on the ground, writing large, childish characters that only spirits could see: "Spiritual Healing Center."
A few spirits have already come to visit because they smelled the special scent that Zhang Zhidong deliberately emitted.
"Can this place really help fulfill my last wish?" the old woman's spirit asked, craning her neck.
"Do you need money? I don't have many spirit coins left." The old man's spirit rubbed his waist and cleared his throat.
"Could you also help this poor old woman from Barcelona?" The frail, hunched spirit of the old woman asked.
The little boy nodded blankly at the three spirits, muttering "Aba aba."
"Fellow villagers! What wishes do you have that you want to be fulfilled?" Zhang Zhidong suddenly floated down and landed on the ground.
Feeling the intense heat, the three innocent spirits couldn't help but want to retreat.
"I...I don't have any spirit coins..." The old man's spirit tried to adjust to the discomfort, leaning back and squinting at the crooked characters on the ground.
“Not bad! It doesn’t matter if I don’t have any spirit coins! I have some anyway!” Zhang Zhidong shouted, hands on his hips, the police badge on his cap shining even brighter than usual.
Since his triumph, he has received countless spirit coins every day.
The phrase "inexhaustible resources" probably refers to this situation.
"Just tell me! I'll help you with anything I can!" Zhang Zhidong glanced at the three spirits and smiled broadly.
The people need protection, and the spirits of the spirit world also need protection!
Zhang Zhidao fanned himself with his hand as he walked out of the community.
"Let me introduce you! This is my brother!" Zhang Zhidong pointed to Zhang Zhidao with a proud expression.
The three spirits ignored him.
"I've tried every folk remedy in my life but I still can't have a child. I want a child," the old woman's spirit said, blushing.
As she spoke, her eyes sparkled, filled with anticipation.
"..."
Zhang Zhidong was speechless.
He glanced at the little boy next to him and hesitated whether or not to send the little boy away.
Based on Zhang Zhidong's mere six months of experience with spirits, he had no concept of whether spirits could give birth to smaller spirits.
"That's good! But you can't just take medicine anywhere! I suggest you try to find a companion in the spirit world! If that doesn't work, you can treat this child as your son."
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Zhidong pointed to Mao Maotou, who was trying to catch a mosquito.
The old woman's spirit showed an expression of sudden realization, as if she had opened the door to a new world.
"I want to see my son get married, but he's always been single and has absolutely no luck with women." The old man's spirit sighed, revealing a very regretful expression.
“That’s right! But we in the underworld can’t interfere with things in the mortal world, so your son will have to work hard on this himself!” Zhang Zhidong nodded and said in a deep voice, seemingly understanding the old man’s feelings.
"Then I might have to wait another ten years before I can be reincarnated..." The old man's spirit shook his head, as if he wanted to turn around and leave.
"That's right! But have you considered the possibility that your son might not want to get married? Everyone's aspirations are different."
Zhang Zhidong patted the old man on the back, his expression serious.
"Ouch, I know, I know..." The old man's spirit, who had been scalded, nodded frantically, turned around, and floated away in a flash.
"Officer, I want to hold my grandson, not my granddaughter... I also want to wait for my husband to pass away with me..." The trembling spirit of the old lady carefully floated to the side of Mao Maotou, and smiled like an aunt as she looked at Mao Maotou's silly appearance.
"..."
Zhang Zhidong was somewhat taken aback. He hadn't expected that the first three spirits to arrive would all remain in the world because of this kind of obsession.
"That's right! I suggest you give up the idea of needing a grandson; favoring sons over daughters is wrong! As for your spouse, I think it's best for him to live as long as possible!"
Chapter 40 Jiuge emitted a mechanical sound
Looking at the surreal scene at the entrance of the community, Jiuge's face turned red and then white.
"You mean when you say I should prepare myself mentally?"
She looked at An Chen expressionlessly, her tone icy, her eyes losing their sparkle, reverting to her previous icy demeanor.
Dreams shattered, sincerity betrayed, feelings deceived—that's probably what it feels like.
Jiuge sniffed, holding back the tears that were about to spill from her eyes.
Since he had asked her to prepare herself mentally, An Chen must have already known what would happen at the door.
"I just have an amazing intuition. When I went out, I sensed a few spirits floating around the entrance of the community." An Chen seemed to have guessed Jiu Ge's thoughts.
He shrugged, revealing an innocent expression that showed he was actually quite helpless.
That's absolutely true. An Chen didn't know beforehand that Zhang Zhidong would pull off something like this.
However, seeing Jiu Ge's forced composure and trembling shoulders, he was still quite satisfied.
At least it's somewhat interesting.
"Can you tell what they're doing?" Forcing herself to ignore the circle of spirits surrounding them, Jiuge pointed to the hideous characters on the ground.
I never expected that someone as talented as Zhang Zhidong would have such terrible handwriting.
Perhaps everyone, whether human or spirit, has some flaws, more or less.
"I guess they want to help all spirits reincarnate and also act as psychologists," An Chen said, glancing at the other side.
It must be that Zhang Zhidong misinterpreted his previous advice, which led to this outcome.
If An Chen's intuition is correct and he chooses this location, Zhang Zhidong will inevitably ask him and Jiu Ge for help frequently in the future.
"They are spirits too, aren't they?" Jiuge's voice grew colder and colder, her eyes still devoid of light.
If she's not mistaken, the frequency of her encounters with spirits for no apparent reason will definitely skyrocket in the future.
“But they don’t want to reincarnate.” An Chen shrugged again, a regretful expression on his face.
Mao Maotou didn't care, but Zhang Zhidong didn't really want the other party to reincarnate too early.
