Chapter 404 Still the Same
"My dear daughter was frightened to death, why can't I vent my anger? Not only will I sue the bar for poor security, but I will also demand compensation. Look how scared I am!" When Wu Jin heard his mother's angry voice, he didn't even push the door of Wu Genji's VIP room. Just when he was about to knock on the door, he took a step back and waited for his father to comfort his mother.
He had enough to think about right now without his mother jumping on his head, so instead of heading into his room, he turned around and headed for the hospital entrance. He climbed down the front porch stairs.
Wu Jin found a secluded corner, lit a cigarette, and took a puff of the mint cigar alone. He didn't like smoking. Since his nephew was born, he completely changed this habit, but now that his nephew is gone, he has too many things on his mind. He deserves a break, right?
"Ouch," he was about to take another puff of his cigar when he heard a woman's cry behind him. He was stunned and turned around to find an old woman squatting on the ground picking up apples and peaches that had fallen to the ground. Next to her on the cement floor was a torn plastic bag.
Wu Jin put out his cigar, walked straight to the old woman, and helped her pick up the apples and peaches that had fallen on the ground. "Come on, Mom, let me help you."
He picked up the apples scattered on the cement floor and put them on the torn plastic bag. At this time, his eyes fell on the peach stuck between the metal bars of the sewer. He took a look. The stinky sewer and the slightly rotten peaches, he turned to the old woman and said, "Wait a minute, I'll get that one too."
"Oh, no, it's okay." The old woman straightened up from the ground, arched her back, picked up the fruit rolled in the large plastic bag, and smiled kindly at Wu Jin. "It's already rotten, and now it's stuck in the sewer, which is even worse... You don't have to give me that peach, let it go."
After she finished speaking, she lifted her legs heavily and was about to leave when Wu Jin suddenly shouted from behind her, "But you paid for it, right? Are you sure you don't want to take it? "Get out?"
The old woman paused, then turned to Wu Jin and smiled kindly, "Of course not, dear. The flesh of the peaches is soft, and the smell of the sewer is already unpleasant enough. If you force it out, I'm afraid it will only make things worse. Sometimes, it's okay to just go on calmly."
Wu Jin looked at the peach stuck in the metal bar of the sewer and pursed his lips. Why did he have other thoughts when the woman was only telling him about the peach?
"Mom, I..." He turned around and wanted to say something to the old woman, but found that the old woman had left. "What...Mom?"
"Mother?"
……
"You still like to provoke humans, don't you?" Song Yan came out from the dark corner where he was hiding, walked to the old woman who was still holding the pile of fruits, lowered his eyes to the fruits in the old woman's hand, and chuckled, "Who is it?" Are you here to see? Could it be that the annoying old woman, after struggling with desperate souls for centuries, finally ended up in the hospital? "
"Be respectful," the old woman said, more pointedly than the other women her age, as she threw the fruit into the air and snapped her fingers. The fruit disappeared in a puff of smoke, and where the old woman had been, now stood a tall, handsome man in a black suit that shone through the cries of many punished souls. "That old woman is the one who decides your fate, and if you mess with her, she'll curse you."
"She has been cursing me for a century." Song Yan sighed. She tilted her head and looked at Wu Jin who was walking towards the hospital. She squinted her eyes and looked at the god of death. "What are you doing here? Didn't you hand this case over to me? Don't think about taking this case away from me and then regretting it."
"I won't break my promise. When I catch the girl's soul, I will let you know where your father is." Death pointed his index finger at his hat and said, "I came here just to help you. Because someone delayed your time, I had no choice but to come out and help you."
"Heh." Song Yan sneered at the shameless man in front of her. "You've been holding this case for years but can't do anything about it. Now that I've made progress, you're still here to scold me?" She raised her hand and pointed at the Grim Reaper threateningly. "Don't even think about sharing the reward. Do you hear me? This time, the good karma belongs only to me."
After that, she turned around and walked into the hospital while muttering a bunch of spells. The Grim Reaper stared at her back and curled his lips. "It's been thousands of years. When will you let go of your arrogance? Even if you reincarnate, you are still the same, Fairy Song."
