Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Baili Jiajue curved his lips into a smile. He had never cared about the life and death of humans, but he actually said, “It’s a very interesting game, isn’t it?”
Helian Weiwei could hear something else implied in these words. “I thought that the murderer was not some ghost, but a human.”
Baili Jiajue laughed in a low and meaningful voice. “That’s right.”
“But your expression doesn’t look like it.” Helian Weiwei’s small face was fierce as she warned in a low voice, “Don’t always make me doubt my intelligence.”
Baili Jiajue liked it when she looked like this and smiled even more brightly. “My master, I wouldn’t dare to make you doubt your intelligence.”
Helian Weiwei was speechless. Then what was he doing right now?!
“The murderer is indeed a human, but…” Baili Jiajue lowered his head to whisper slowly into her ear, “There’s a smell that I don’t like here, but it’s covered by the scent of humans and I can’t pinpoint exactly where it’s coming from. So for the sake of my nose, make sure you don’t go further than one meter away from me.”
Helian Weiwei stretched out her hand and rubbed her ear as she sighed in her heart. This man was always using these things to seduce her. How terrible.
Baili Jiajue watched as she continuously rubbed her ears, just like a little phoenix that had been stepped on.
Teasing his little pet amused him the most after all.
As for other games…he would leave it to her to solve them.
After all, the whole point of keeping a pet was to make sure she was always of interest to him.
Helian Weiwei didn’t know how Baili Jiajue came to this conclusion. If she found out how, she would have felt terribly helpless. After all, only this guy here would be interested in a murderer.
But why?
Why was the first one to die the monk, Wufan?
The panic in the eyes of the university students was very obvious. They felt like they were seeing the same the scene from half a year ago again. At the seaside in the middle of the night, there was only a corpse floating on top of it.
“Call everyone to the hall.” Old Master Song looked at this scene before him and gave an order quietly, “Without my permission, no one is allowed to get close to this place. Xiao Liang, make a call and get some people over to investigate. Don’t create too much of a commotion and don’t let others know.”
An adjutant who was holding an umbrella behind Old Master Song replied in a low voice, “Yes, Sir.”
The rain continued to fall, and the sound of thunder could be heard. It was getting dark.
Except for Song Tongtong, who was being watched by the servants, everyone in the rooms had come to the hall. Master Zhang didn’t know what had happened. He seemed to have just woken up and was still rubbing his eyes. But when he saw the corpse lying outside, his legs were so weak that he could not move.
“Master Wufan, he…he…! ” Master Zhang could not believe that the person who was sitting opposite him not long ago had died just like that!
Old Master Song sat in the middle of the hall with his walking stick in his hand. His voice was also very grim. “This has happened too suddenly. It seems like it is not safe here anymore. I have asked someone to call a car, so in a while, Xiao Liang will be responsible for sending you back. As for the four of you here, you can see the situation. If you still want to stay and catch this ghost, I will definitely reward you greatly. But if you want to leave, I will also respect your choice.”
Master Zhang wanted to leave, but nobody else seemed to be interested in leaving.
If he ran away now, how was he going to survive in this industry in the future?
Li Ya broke her silence first and said with worry, “My crystal ball is broken so I’m afraid I can’t help Old Master Song. I need a new crystal ball to foretell the future.”
“Miss Li Ya must have suffered quite a scare too.” Old Master Song looked at her and it was hard to tell if he was happy or angry from his voice. “You can go back with some of these younger ones.”
Master Zhang opened his mouth and was about to speak.
However, he was interrupted by the youth beside him. “The one who did this wasn’t a ghost.”
Not a ghost? Master Zhang paused. He was waiting for Jing Zifeng to continue. If it wasn’t a ghost, then he didn’t need to be afraid. As long as he could hold out until the next day, he would get a large amount of commission. He wasn’t going to just leave like that.
“My shikigami did not sense any ghosts around here.” Jing Zifeng’s expression was very indifferent.
Helian Weiwei’s face had a playful look on it. Shikigami? She had one too.
A certain highness could also be considered to be a type of shikigami, but he was a demon and not a spirit.
“Shikigami? ” Old Master Song frowned as he looked at Jing Zifeng.
The youth didn’t waste any time. He pulled open the backpack behind him and said, “Come out.”
A few paper figurines seemed to have a life of their own and they jumped onto the coffee table one by one.
“My shikigami.” Jing Zifeng’s tone was still the same.
Helian Weiwei laughed and asked Baili Jiajue beside her, “There are even such adorable shikigami around?”
“These are the most basic type of shikigami.” Baili Jiajue’s gaze turned slightly cold. “It’s just some paper. Is it that cute?”
Helian Weiwei could sense that he was unhappy and she had to try to appease him now. “Not as cute as you. They don’t grow ears either.”
Baili Jiajue gave her an aloof expression that looked like he was satisfied with that answer.
Helian Weiwei couldn’t stop laughing inside. This fellow was even jealous of shikigami. He didn’t display his jealousy very obviously, but she caught it anyway.
It was only because she praised them for being cute.
Shikigami could indeed understand human language. Moreover, Helian Weiwei’s body had a kind of aura that made others want to get close to her.
Hearing her praise them so much, the paper figurines stood in a row and started…dancing? And they were even dancing to a popular dance circulating the internet!
Everyone who saw this scene was stunned.
Were their eyes playing tricks on them?!
What funny little shikigami… Helian Weiwei even laughed out loud.
Only the youth looked rather embarrassed. He pulled his shikigami back and coldly threatened them, “If you do this sort of ridiculous thing again, I’ll leave you out in the rain.”
A few small pieces of paper immediately became quiet. They stood on the table and didn’t dare to dance anymore.
Their little master was still in puberty, so it was inevitable that he would be more violent. They knew this very well!
Old Master Song had never seen anything like this before even though he had lived for so many years. He had never believed in such superstitions, but those papers were really able to move without any manipulation, so he couldn’t help but look more deeply at the youth now. “If the one who did this wasn’t a ghost, that what was it?”
“A human.” Jing Zifeng was a man of few words.
As soon as the word ‘human’ was uttered, the muffled thunder in the sky rumbled again.
Xiao Liang came running back in at this time and looked at Old Master Song as if he wanted to say something, but couldn’t say it in front of everybody else.
Old Master Song leaned on his walking stick. “Just say what you have to say.”
“The road out of the villa is blocked by two broken shrubs, so there’s no way for people or cars to get over them. The rain is too heavy, and the water in the nearby lake is constantly rising. The villa’s communication network has also been cut off due to the rain.”
